Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 693

Chapter 693

The news that the warrior of the machine had overturned the allied forces of the kingdoms reached the city of Sore, the city of the demons.

The news reached Saint Deoni Vire of the Masin Church, who had just withdrawn from the front lines and was staying in Sore, and she had to let out a soft sigh and shake her head.

“Isn’t that something you’ve already heard?”

Since communication through the crystal ball is not possible anytime and anywhere, news that is already outdated here may be the latest news somewhere else, so telegrams may arrive late. This often happens on the battlefield.

This time, Deoni was trying to focus on urgent work, thinking that it was the same as usual, but the paladin who brought the information waved his hand urgently to stop her.

“Oh no, your majesty, the warrior fell over ‘again’”

“···yes?”

“This time, it was detonated right before the meeting that was supposed to take place in Levien. The details are still being confirmed, but it is said that not only did the Allied Forces of the Kingdoms completely collapse, but they will also be stripped of their garrison status. It is so extreme that even the Empire, which originally did not want to participate, has reportedly taken action…”

Why can’t I understand the content when he speaks clearly without missing a single word? Deoni, who was blinking at the dizzying and mysterious phenomenon, suddenly had a wrinkle appear between her beautiful eyebrows.

It’s definitely a good thing.

It was a good thing, but the problem was that the original plan to slow down and use the excuse of escorting to avoid being noticed by the current Demon King’s army was becoming meaningless.

At this point, isn’t it the level where even breathing would cause incidents to follow? Ete’s warriors didn’t have to suffer this much, so why is it only our warrior who is like this? It was a moment when the arrangements of the gods of the world felt annoying, but Deoni shook his head and shook off the impious thoughts, quickly organizing the documents and giving instructions to the priest who was working with him.

“Please convey this to Lady Ashili and Lady Siegfried. How much time is left until the gate opens?”

“I think it will take about two more days.”

It was four days later than planned, but Deoni accepted the result without hesitation.

These are workers who were forcibly split up and sent out manpower that was not there to begin with. Even though Etisel did not spare any support, it was only limited to materials. Since the human race uses mana, they could not provide manpower.

However, it was an inevitable choice to leave the construction of the gate to the humans, as it would take too long, so it would be unconscionable to curse the workers here.

“That’s enough, so please give me good instructions so that I can work carefully without rushing too much. After all, I don’t need to participate from the first day of the meeting.”

There was also a promise that the next three days would be a series of days where the atrocities of the Allied Forces would be put on the chopping block and beaten up, so there was no need to rush. The Masin Church only had to attend the meeting to discuss future moves regarding the garrison troops after the agenda was settled.

“By the way, what are the movements of a master-level person like?”

“They haven’t shown up at all lately. Judging from the movements of the scouts, it doesn’t seem like they’ve given up on them…”

“We can’t rule out the possibility that this was a diversionary operation aimed at that interpretation.”

“yes·”

The movement of only targeting Eldmia, without paying any attention to Siegfried, the warrior of Ethe who showed up out of the blue, was more troublesome than one could imagine.

It is clear that the idea and execution of hiring a master-level expert solely for the purpose of assassination are problematic, but the purpose is so clear that there is not much damage. The real problem lies in the actions of certain people who found out about this fact.

“What about Siegfried’s party? That···”

“If you are talking about Ms. Ogatorp, they are all the same.”

He was a competent priest who helped her with chores, but he was not competent enough to immediately know what kind of answer she wanted to hear even if she spoke to him indirectly. Nevertheless, the fact that he gave such a direct answer was because Sheryl Tsushin Ogatorp’s actions were so noticeable.

That record was also good.

It was good, but it was too radical and unusual, which was a problem.

“Please contact the front line with the correction ball. I need to talk to Siegfried.”

While the paladin who finished his report left and the priest called a wizard separately to prepare for contact, Deoni, who was trying to take care of even the smallest of tasks, accepted that he was in a situation where he could not concentrate on his work and took a short nap.

‘I haven’t slept for several days…’

Two days? Three days? My memory is hazy, so I thought it would be better to close my eyes for a bit after we finished talking.

Even if Siegfried is not in the unit right now, the schedule will be disrupted again, but fortunately, the news that came back was positive.

“Connected, Saintess.”

The face of Siegfried, who had just sat down and started to look at the crystal ball, appeared on the crystal ball brought by the wizard who had finished preparing. He too had been on the front lines for a long time, so he looked tired, but apart from that, he maintained a fairly neat appearance.

“How are the front lines?”

-It’s always the same. Well, I’m just grateful for that ‘sameness’ these days. Why are you contacting me? Oh, no. Is it because of Ogatorp?

Deoni briefly thought about making an excuse for Siegfried’s words, which seemed lighthearted but had the sharpness of a warrior, and decided to just nod. It was not that they didn’t know each other, so there was no reason to lie.

-It’s still the same. Of course, it’s still a bit scary… It’s not like he’s been fooled by the enemies’ illusions, and he seems to have mental problems… He acts normally in everyday life, so it’s hard to say anything.

Knowing that fact, Siegfried also explains the situation fluently, but his tone is somewhat uncertain. However, surprisingly, Deoni was able to understand that there really was no problem just from that explanation.

It was exactly the same feeling when she was on the front line. But that’s just a ‘no problem’. Compared to just a few months ago, there have been so many changes that it can be called a cataclysmic change.

If it was just a little bit, Deoni was going to let it go, but he was certain that if it went any further, it might not end well, so he decided to cut it short and get to the point.

“There will be a meeting in Levien soon.”

-Ah, is that the thing that you said was made by knocking it over?

“That’s right. Since Lady Eldmia is the closest personal friend to Miss Ogatorp, I thought it would be a good idea to show up and meet her, so I’m contacting you.”

I didn’t think Siegfried would refuse. In the first place, Siegfried didn’t look favorably on the current Ogatorf. In some ways, it could be considered a special privilege, but if you think of it as part of sending the mentally exhausted troops to the rear to rest, it wasn’t much of a problem.

But for some reason, Siegfried, who was expected to nod readily, began to think seriously.

-Oh, it’s ambiguous.

“It’s ambiguous?”

-That… Aside from the problem, it seems like Ogatorp is in the process of… attaining enlightenment? Sir, Lord Santua Santri is also watching with a fire in his eyes…

“yes?”

What does this mean? Santra Santri? The Sword Master of the Empire? She’s interested in Ogatorp?

“What on earth happened?”

-You know, a few days after my brother left, he suddenly started mumbling to himself and swinging his sword more and more often. And recently, he started sleeping less.

“But you said there was no problem just now?”

-That’s true. There’s no problem. I don’t have any illnesses, whether it’s narcolepsy or insomnia. I eat well, stay healthy, and fight even better and scarier.

“···What did the Sword Master of the Empire say?”

-They say that it’s better to leave talented people alone because they always end up like that.

In other words, it also meant, ‘We have to leave it alone.’ Only then did Deoni understand why Siegfried was showing a troubled expression and habitually pressed his temples.

“···You said that bringing them by force might be difficult.·”

-Yes, of course, if he says he’s going, there won’t be any problem, but since he’s eating right now, I’ll ask him.

Siegfried got up from his seat without asking for consent as soon as he finished speaking, but it doesn’t feel like he was being rude.

Even when Deoni was on the front lines, Ogatorp spent most of his time fighting and training, except for the time he spent eating and sleeping. After eating, he would go back into his own world and continue training or jump into the front lines, so it was clear that he had made a move right away.

After waiting for about 3 minutes, Siegfried returned to his seat earlier than expected and opened his mouth with a somewhat uneasy expression.

-They say they’re going.

“Really?”

-Yes, we had a proper conversation. He said he would go to Soro as soon as he finished eating. Asili will be accompanying him.

Then, isn’t it true that things worked out well? Why is he making that face?

While Deoni tilted her head because she didn’t understand at all, Siegfried looked down and pondered, then shook his head and added:

-Please tell my brother that he should try not to make contact with the Allied Forces, and if he does end up fighting Ogatorp… to be a bit more cautious.

It was a message that only amplified the doubts, but all Deoni could do was accept Siegfried’s request.
