Renya wakes up as dawn comes .
He then walks out quietly in order to not wake up the other members that is still sleeping .
They kept their alert up all night just in case Faskurn’s side goes desperate and tries to overturn the war advantage by doing night attack but in the end, they show no movement in the least .
Walking to the campsite entrance, in a position where people can look down on the capital city of Faskurn, Renya meets that man .
“ . . . . . . Oh, it’s Renya-dono”
“Eugene-san, did you sleep?”
“Yes, I slept enough”
Eugene keeps gazing down the capital city without moving .
He should feel anxious about getting back the thing that is precious to him .
“ . . . . . . I wonder from when did Faskurn starts going the wrong way”
Renya doesn’t have an answer to that question .
Those who don’t know Faskurn would not be able to answer . But Renya takes that as the monologue from the man who still stands tall even when he lost everything .
“ . . . . . . I don’t know when it started but incompetent people start to put their hands on the high-level official position that could directly influence the kingdom’s politic . The nobles that hold on to their responsibility to the kingdom and her people were driven away gradually and at last, the kingdom’s policy turned into one which function is only to fatten themselves with even more riches”
The corruption of the government had made the kingdom turns ridiculous .
Thing like this isn’t particularly rare . If the one holding the helm is someone crazy then the ship would definitely stray away from its destination and lost in the wide sea after all .
“The word ‘It can’t be helped’ is something I never approve of . I want to speak up that this kind of kingdom governing is wrong but . . . . . . my resistance end up futile as they sent me to war and frame me up as a traitor”
Many people have end up as corpses in this meaningless war . In the end, he will point his sword at his own kingdom for the sake of his loved one .
“ . . . . . . At least, let me exchange this life . . . . . . ”
“If you are going to exchange your life just for saving your loved one then I’m going to stop you here Eugene-san”
Renya definitely won’t accept such kind of resolution .
He definitely won’t recognize the man’s company if he has such intention .
“Take your lover in your hands and live until the end . Although you won’t be able to live here anymore, that should be enough to grant amnesty to your wrongs . So I won’t allow you to easily die . If you just want to fulfill your own ego of saving your lover and then dies a martyr death then those left behind would only feel regret”
“ . . . . . . Renya-dono, you really”
“I don’t like the word self-sacrifice . You might feel glorious after fulfilling your mission but the one left behind will be burdened with eternal regret . You can’t simply ask reason to the dead right? Well, some might said the one left behind might be able to alter the dead’s intention in their convenience but still, the wound left behind would take a long time to heal”
Life and death .
The separated feeling will never return the right answer .
That person should never be thinking about such a thing, that person would never say that kind of thing .
And even more of they should, they would .
One can only predict and imagine but the conclusion would eternally stay in the darkness .
“If you save that person only to make them carry a lifetime agony, isn’t that just forcing them into a living hell? If you want to save someone then get out of there alive . Also if you still end up dying then please do so after you properly convey your feeling to your loved ones . Tell them that you are happy with your life”
“ . . . . . . That is true . After all . . . . . . I am currently bearing myself living in shame in order to not let my loved one feel sad”
“Good . And for the sake of achieving your wish, please let go of your pride as a knight, let go of your pride as a man . Survive the ordeal and snatch your loved person back . That is the only supreme way of living”
“ . . . . . . Understood”
The sun is rising .
The preparation should be done soon . The siege will start today . As the two men found anew their resolution, they move their gaze to the capital city which will become their stage in this final war . But as they move their gazes, in front of their eyes . . .
---- A giant black thing suddenly appears from the royal castle .
◇
“Oo, it seems like we finally succeeded”
A group of people in black suddenly appeared on top of the roof of a building located close to the royal castle of Faskurn .
All the people in that group wear hoods . The loose robe they wear seems to be designed to hide the contour of their bodies . The only thing that can be known from a glance is only the difference in their heights .
The three people that seemed like the leader of the group looked up to the black mud giant that size is comparable to the royal castle in satisfaction while smiling eerily .
“it seems that ’Earth’ guy got done in . . . . . . ”
“Kukuku . . . . . . that guy was the weakest among the four bishops . . . . . . ”
“Getting killed by a mere wanderer is a disgrace to the four bishop’s name”
“But he still the one who completes the technique for creating the flesh of god”
“I never imagine that it could get this powerful by only sacrificing all the people in Faskurn’s royal castle”
“Now all we need to do is to watch as the giant lay destruction on this whole region right?”
The giant doesn’t have any will on its own . It only moves one step after another mindlessly .
But unfortunately, a mere mortal could only fear it’s gigantic frame . Even if there are few who dares to challenge it under righteous indignation, the giant’s is just a far superior existence compared to them .
The giant doesn’t make any sound .
It also doesn’t have any face .
That black giant’s existence is merely just a weapon that induces fear on humanity .
The Faskurn royalties were just puppets manipulated by the Ordough sect . Under their influence, even the capital city of the rich kingdom Faskurn that is named as the capital of wealth is literally on the brink of destruction .
Panic already fallen to the castle town . Most of the residents tried to escape but as they are being sieged, the Faskurn army blocked their escape path . In the end, the castle town become a melting pot of chaos where the commoner revolts and tried to press the influential nobles that still survive for responsibility .
Of course, among the influential noble pressed for responsibility, Luther, the one who framed Eugene, is also included .
He is now completely grown senile in front of this hard to accept reality . He can only clatter his teeth in fear from looking at the giant that is casually strolling outside the window .
(Wha, wha, what the hell happened . . . . . . !? I heard they do some kind of ritual to summon more black knight but, but, but why did such a monster appear instead!?)
No matter how you look at the giant movement, one could tell that it is hardly under anyone's control .
Was there an accident in the process? Or did those guys in black that have been staying for long in the castle do something weird? Whichever it was, Faskurn no longer has any future .
