Chapter 72

If left unchecked, it could turn into a catfight (physical), so I had no choice but to intercede.

 

“Both of you …… Stop it already, or I won’t be talking to you for a while.”

 

Twitch.

I felt like I heard an onomatopoeia.

 

“You’re both irreplaceable and important to me, so please don’t fight.”

 

Mil shrugged and looked down.

 

“Uhm …… Al, I’m sorry …….”

 

Kiara was on the verge of tears.

 

“I …… I’m sorry, brother.”

 

I hugged them both because if this continues, the atmosphere will be worse tomorrow and beyond.

 

“As long as you understand.”

 

◆◇◆◇◆

 

The next day, everyone was grinning at me.

The teacher was overjoyed.

 

“In addition to the couple’s malaise, there’s also Miss Kiara’s frustration. This will be interesting.”

 

It was a remark that lacked too much delicacy.

As promised, Mil and Kiara tightened him up.

 

It’s hard for men.

The theme song of a Japanese movie about a man who is very popular with women plays in my head.

 

But …… I have a feeling that if the mourning woman Silvana is here, it would be troublesome.

It’s a blessing in disguise.

But …… I don’t think she would come when I think like this.

The teacher will break down if the mourning woman Silvana came here, so I’d prefer that she don’t.

 

◆◇◆◇◆

 

It’s no use worrying about it, so the three of us had a little talk in the reception room before the wolf people came.

And it seems that there was something bothering Mil.

 

“I was wondering about something we talked about yesterday. Aaron-san said that he rarely interacts with the tiger people, right?”

 

“Yes.”

 

“But there were times when they lived in harmony, right? Isn’t that strange?”

 

That was a little careless of me.

I didn’t get a chance to scrutinize the information in yesterday’s catfight …


 

It’s not like I can immediately contradict myself like in some rush trial game.

I heard that during the test play, the interrogation could not be repeated only once, so …… people could hardly get into it.

 

“You can ask any wolf who comes today, but …… I think they would probably just talk about the bare minimum.”

 

Mil seemed to be convinced at least.

 

“I see …… They even put the elves to shame for not making small talks.”

 

True, I can’t even imagine elves making small talk with each other.

 

“There’s no reason for Sir Aaron to lie too.”

 

“Have you decided what to do to some extent?”

 

I folded my arms and shrugged my shoulders.

 

“Not yet.”

 

“Brother is quick to make up his mind and start running, though. You’ll think twice before you run.”

 

“But …… I’m sure that the reason why the tiger people became tyrannical was because there was someone behind the scenes who was instigating them.”

 

I guess Mil didn’t quite understand my vague statement.

I’ve been talking only about reason until now, after all.

I’m sure she won’t be able to immediately understand something that doesn’t show any benefit.


 

 

“What’s the benefit of firing them up?”

 

“If the goal is revenge, then the benefit is irrelevant, I suppose. It’s all about death and destruction.”

""

 

Kiara’s face turned pale with astonishment.

 

“It’s unconstructive, isn’t it? I wish everyone was as constructive as brother.”

 

“For the time being, revenge doesn’t mean that everyone else wants destruction. I’m sure we can work something out. If everyone is ready for destruction, then we will have to make a harsh decision.”

 

Mil asked worriedly.

 

“Just in case …… I’d like to ask you, what is this harsh decision?”

 

I blur it out.

 

“If I have to, I’ll put protecting the people of the town first and ignore everything else.”

 

“T-That’s ……”

 

I winked at Mil, daring to be light-hearted.

 

“I’ll let you know secretly one of these days.”

 

If this story gets out and spreads, it would be troublesome.

It’s not something I can just pick a season and burn down the forest.

In other words …… I have to be prepared to involve even unrelated people.

We’ll be sniping at anything that gets away.

No matter what the accusations it is, I have to protect the lives of my men and the residents.

I don’t want to do this if I can help it, and I’ll do my best to avoid it.

 

I don’t want Mil to hate me.

But, I can’t let my personal feelings get in the way of getting my people killed.

Kiara’s expression became one of realization.

 

“Dear Sister. There are extreme stories that you cannot tell others, right? And Brother will do his best to make sure it never happens. You are his wife, so please accept his resolve.”

 

As if it was a matter of course, Kiara put her heart on the line.

 

“I will stand by my brother’s side, no matter what he decides.”

 

With a firm expression, Mil assures me. 

 

“I know. I will definitely stay next to Al until the end. I’m not going to hate you or anything.”

 

The conversation turned a little gloomy.

After a while, there was a report of the arrival of the wolf people.

 

I just hope the information would be revealed here.
