Arthur's words made the atmosphere in the meeting room heavier.
Many people nodded silently.
Arthur's analysis coincided with their thoughts.
"That's right."
Irus spoke.
"Like Arthur said, the Demon King's army would never do such a thing out of sheer stupidity, because the Demon King sent to lead the Demon King's army is selected! So there must be something behind this, and we still know nothing about it..."
He glanced around at everyone present.
Irus said seriously:
"This is terrible."
"We may have less time than expected. We can't continue to wait like this, waiting for the other side to gradually seize the initiative. We must quickly integrate the Demon Continent Expeditionary Force and launch a counterattack."
"As for the time—"
"It will be on the day when all the heroes reach their peak strength."
... ...
On a main road leading to Bangisto.
A group from the Central Church was camping by the road.
Two girls dressed as priests slipped out of the camp and stood on tiptoe, looking towards the east.
"Rumia Rumia, can we see the city after we climb over the mountain ahead?"
"No, Lucia. It will be many days before we get there."
"Lumiya, how many days is many days?"
"Hmm... Rumia, you don't know?"
"Lucia doesn't know either, so what should I do?"
The twin sisters looked at each other.
After a few seconds, they said in unison:
"Go ask Krut——" x2
The other side.
A young priest is being harassed.
Although he was a fat, big-eared and narrow-minded guy, the man in front of him was indeed a bishop of the church.
"...Krut, are you listening?!"
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Bishop Poffern, I'm listening."
"snort... ..."
Pofern looked at Krut with some dissatisfaction.
"You better not be giving me a hard time. A country bumpkin like you would never have been given a high position in your life. It's only because you're from the same hometown as that lord and are acquainted with those two young ladies that His Excellency the Cardinal has assigned you such an important position."
"Give me the constant gratitude to remember this kindness."
The corners of Krut's mouth twitched slightly.
"Yes, you are right."
"Don't just talk nonsense. If those two ladies have any problems, it will be your responsibility!"
"Yes, yes, you are right..."
He actually said that everything was my responsibility. He was really good at it.
"Hmph, remember, once we get to headquarters, I'll try my best to assign you to logistics. You just need to stay by those two's side at all times and protect them."
"Uh, sir, isn't this a bit..." Krut hesitated.
"Why, do you have any objections?"
Porfern glared at him.
"Those two young ladies are the blood relatives of that master. If something goes wrong on the battlefield, can you bear the responsibility?!"
"But, shouldn't we ask their opinions on this matter..."
"What nonsense! We just need to keep this matter under control. We can't just let anyone do whatever they want—"
"Krut——" x2
A unanimous voice came from not far away.
Krut turned around and saw the twin sisters running towards him.
"Lumia, Lucia?"
Krut was slightly surprised, then asked.
"What do you two want from me?"
"Krut, do you know...Krut, are you busy?" Rumya was about to ask when she suddenly noticed the fat bishop Pofern next to Krut.
"No, no, no, not at all!"
Pofern said quickly.
His fat face was so full of smiles that the fat almost covered his eyes.
"We're just chatting. If you two ladies have anything to say, please feel free to ask. I, Porvern, am happy to serve you!"
However.
The two sisters completely ignored Poffern's enthusiasm.
"Then Lucia can ask Kruto."
"Yes, Rumia can ask Kruto now."
The two sisters surrounded Krut, one on each side, and asked in unison:
"Hey, Krut, how long will it take us to get there?"
"Lumia wants to see Hulim soon."
"Lucia also wants to see Hulim soon."
"Uh... So that's what you guys wanted to ask."
Krut smiled helplessly.
"Don't worry, we'll be there in about a week."
"A week?"
"A week!"
The two sisters held each other's hands and clung together.
"Great~!" x2
"Speaking of which..." Krut's eyes rolled and he suddenly spoke again.
"Lumia, Lucia, how about we stay in the back after we get to headquarters?"
The two sisters raised their heads at the same time and stared at Korut.
"Look, it's safer in the back, isn't it~?"
"No, Lucia doesn't like to stay in the back."
"Lumia doesn't like it either."
"We will follow Hulim to the battlefield." x2
Korut spread his hands with a look of distress.
Poffen was panicked on the spot.
"Wait... Please wait a moment! Ladies, the front line is too dangerous for you! I'm asking you to stay behind for your own safety."
