143. Both?

“There… I don’t think so.”

I don’t think so, I don’t think there really is.

At Iris’s words, I stared at him.

For now, there is no sign that he is joking around.

That means that Iris really said that.

In addition, the feeling of saying something very twisted is strong.

There is only one instance where he speaks in that tone.

When making a prediction by comparing the current situation with something only the person knows.

As a regressor, that’s exactly what he said when he expressed his opinion.

“… Is there something strange about your expectations?”

Avoiding the penalty he carries, I quietly ask a question.

Then Iris quickly took over my words.

“Yes. It’s a little strange. To me, it seems like an attraction.”

“Are you going to divert your support somewhere else and attack the other place with this force?”

“I think that is very likely.”

“But couldn’t Gerard and Iris not know that? Even those guys would have been victorious in battles with demon worshipers, and they’re not mindless warriors.”

“… That’s right. That’s why I’m just making predictions.”

In the battle for the capital, he finally defended the castle and killed one of the demon fragments.

As a result, the current flow was completely different from what Iris knew.

Iris must be aware of that and be even more nervous.

From now on, I really don’t know exactly where things will go.

She remembered the past and future as much as she knew.

So she will want to get a hint from it and put it into the present moment.

“Iris. Then, shall we listen to your prediction?”

“Master. The enemies will definitely aim for Grand Master Garam and Sister Xenia first.”

“Why?”

“Because it has the most powerful means of attack among the warriors. Sister Daisy is there, of course, but that’s just magic. Magic is relatively easy to defend against them. Sister Iris is also strong, but one heavy hit is lacking compared to the two sisters.”

Iris’s words are clearly valid.

As far as I can remember, there were many guys with high magic defense.

Unless it’s a specific area where people who are weak to magic appear.

In the combination I made, Daisy mainly used defensive magic.

In addition, the enemies must have figured out who the first demon fragment was killed by, at least roughly.

Because there are warriors who didn’t show up in the battle of the royal castle.

The sword hero, the spear hero, the divine hero, and even the last poison hero.

After that, if it was confirmed that the hero of poison was active in a place away from the castle.

From the standpoint of the remaining enemies, I will pick Garam, Xenia, and Lily as the heroes to be most wary of.

Especially one shot, one shot is powerful. A perfect dealer character.

Garam and Xenia must have been designated as people of concern requiring special attention.

“Sister Garam and Xenia said that Master….”

“I told you to go west. You should have arrived there already.”

From noble mtl dot com

Do the enemies really want to target Garam and Xenia first?

Even though Garam, the warrior of the sword, is a bit weak.

That is relative, not absolute.

There is a very high possibility that a fair amount of mines will just be sliced.

What about Xenia? Bad relationship with Garam is your weakness?

That’s just a casual bickering.

When entering a battle situation, each other shows close to perfect breathing.

Every time the two got along and fought with me, even my master admired me a little bit.

There is a possibility that the enemy does not know such detailed information, so we do not know again.

But among my students, Garam and Xenia were the most active.

In the world, it was said that there is a debate every time over the two of them for the title of the strongest warrior.

Scheming something against those heroes, and against both of them at the same time?

“… Iris. If you were hostile, what do you think you would have done?”

It means to make a statement based on what you know.

After thinking about it for a while, Iris slowly opened her mouth.

“Of course, we will target Sister Lily first. Just as a powerful frontline unit will eventually collapse if you cut off support from the rear, declaring a sanctuary is a very good means of support.”

“But Lily is staying in a relatively safe castle.”

“Yes. Master told Sister Lily to wait in the castle with Sister Daisy until one of the North and West groups returned. If that happens, the entire royal castle will be burdened. So, if I were hostile, Sister Lily would give up and aim for the next rank. It’s risky, but worth it once you kill or capture it. A hero of that rank.”

Because I’m listening to what Iris said, it’s definitely plausible.

In addition, the fact that he is explaining the reason by mentioning it like that.

It also meant that they were actually targeting Garam and Xenia after harming Lily.

Even if it’s me, I think I’ll deal with it that way.

First, subdue the healer and then destroy the main dealer line.

Then the remaining sub-dealers and tanks will be destroyed on their own.

But if you think of it the other way around, even if you destroy the tank line, the effect will appear.

Will the enemies really target Garam and Xenia instead of Gerard and Iris?

“… If you want something more tangible, I’ll show you.”

While saying that, Iris approached me.

I was a bit lost the other day, but now I know what he’s going to do.

So we wait patiently, and soon the cape of severance I gave to Iris surrounds us.

Shaaa-….

Soon, black darkness fills my eyes.

All senses are cut off, and there is only a strange feeling as if floating in the air.

At the time I wondered if I could completely assimilate into this darkness.

I wondered if the world was gradually getting brighter, and soon a landscape unfolded before my eyes.

“……… !”

“……….”

This time, unlike the last time, I can’t hear the sound very well.

No, maybe it’s not making any noise.

Instead, everything reflected in my eyes was clearly visible.

Me on my knees and the few disciples weeping.

A poorly made stone tomb, as if there was no time to make a proper grave.

And a red sword and an ink-colored spear lying lonely in front of it, having lost their owner.

– Funeral –

A handful of people were crying for the departed.

For the sake of those left behind, they grit their teeth and endure it.

I get goosebumps all over my body thinking that this is the future I was supposed to be in.

Ooh ooh ooh….

Even the blowing wind makes a grotesque cry that is unmatched by the ominous.

The world was on fire and there was only ashes everywhere.

Everybody is crying on that land full of grief.

Even I, watching this, feel depressed.

– Stop. –

Stop, I want to stop watching. I think this is enough.

This is enough. Damn, just looking at this is disgusting enough.

At the same time as I had that thought, I returned to the world again.

“… Master.”

The last warrior holding my hand slips away from my side.

Iris, who shared my memories, is looking at me.

I nodded my head to her silent question about whether the answer was now.

“Are you okay?”

“… Are you fine. From my point of view, I just saw what if.”

I’m rather worried about Iris’s stomach.

It sounds like you went through all of that yourself.

The fact that he is standing like that with such a normal appearance is amazing.

Although it may be able to hold on with a very strong mental power.

On the contrary, it could be that you are forcibly holding on to something that has already collapsed.

“Yes, for those reasons, the enemy’s main base will rather be in the west, are you saying this?”

“I guess it is. It’s just a ‘prediction’.”

That word “Prediction” Really means the person’s own prediction.

It will be the result of substituting what happened before regression.

I saw two disciples who had already lost their lives before me.

Although it hasn’t happened now, and it won’t happen.

From there, you can predict what the enemies will think and what conclusions they will come to.

Thinking that far, I think the answer came out.

I wanted to get out of the south and go somewhere else.

It looked like they were about to move at the right time.

“Then it looks like a decision has been made, Iris.”

“… Where are you going?”

“Send the magic memo. To Gerard and Iris. I’m going west.”

“Ah… yes. All right. Me, by the way If that happens, the two….”

“Maybe they will feel it when they receive my reply. There is something. They say their teacher noticed something and took a course west instead of north. Rather, I will endure harder there.”

Gerard is originally a very clever guy.

And Iris is definitely a good disciple.

The north sent me a magic message saying it was unusual.

If you confirm that the answer that came back is that I am going west.

Perhaps you tilt your head and ask why this answer comes out, rather than doing it.

I understand the situation right away and I will do my best to block the north.

“Well, by the way, Master. There is one more problem.”

“Here. You mean the south?”

“… Yes.”

As expected by Iris, the main force of the enemy is in the west.

Their distributed forces are definitely staying in the south as well.

They keep summoning demons and stabbing them in all directions.

Now, while we reside in the south, we cut them off.

Although they are also training people to at least prepare them to act as fences.

No one knows what will happen if we leave.

I prepared the best, but if the south collapses in vain, things will go wrong from the start.

That meant we had to split our forces before leaving for the west.

“As expected, the best thing is to have Master and Esther….”

“Senpai Esther and Teacher Tae are the same. Will you agree?”

At Iris’s words, I had to salivate.

First of all, Esther really hates being separated from me.

Even when I had to go down the mountain right away, it was barely enough to soothe three days of weeping.

In addition, I feel very uncomfortable living with other people without me.

There is also the feeling that Master is secretly trying to stay by my side.

Even if it’s not as much as Esther, it seems that the world here is quite uncomfortable.

Above all, if I’m away, there’s no one to take care of my master.

Ester is said to exist, but she is still very shy.

That said, if anyone attaches it, there is a very high possibility that it will be torn apart by the master right away.

With all these concerns, I think it will be a little reassuring for them to stay in the south.

As long as it’s not the fragments of demons, it’s only possible to clean up demons.

Even if fragments of demons appear, the two of them can escape.

“I think Master must have a hard time.”

“… Both?”

“Yes.”

“Do you want me to convince everyone?”

“Yes. Both.”

At Iris’s words, I had to sigh.

I’d like to leave at least one to the regressor.

Also, there was no other way to convince the two of them except me.
