Chapter 17: Specifics

However, I don't know exactly what it is. But that's not because I don't want to be with that betrayer, Heruru.

"Hmm...... It's a gut feeling. Honestly, I have a little bit too. Okay, let's pick up the pace. Now let's hurry up and find out where the metal minerals are being moved by those soldiers. Yes...... That location is!"

Erhers rode a yellow-haired bird on the edge of the lookout. She looked up at what seemed to be some powerful private territory in the area, and the reason why she cared about it was precisely because the place where the metal and ore transported by the army was moved was there.

"According to the latest version of the geographical distribution map of the Sword City that Heruru told me, the private area in the direction in front of me seems to be the private territory of the Vali clan. ”

In fact, even if there is no need for Heruru to verbally describe Erhes, Erhes used to be a student of Walisimba, the eldest son of the Wali clan, and lived there for a while when she was a student, even if the appearance of the Wali mansion has changed a lot now, Erhes still recognizes it at a glance, it is what made her miserable in the past.

"Valishimba should be dead now, and her youngest sister Valishire is unknown after being taken in by the government, and the second brother Valion, who should have been located missing by the government agency, has become the room where Heruru stayed in us. So who is in charge of communicating with the people in the army who send metal minerals? Besides, why is it sent to private territory when it is a material for government use? The only guy in the Wali clan who has that authority is probably only Wali Simba, but that guy should be dead as mentioned at the beginning, Oh ....... ”

So even if Vali Shitsu survives, with her body that has become "quite valuable for research", if she wants to be free in the empire, she will not be able to return to normal life without making corresponding contributions in exchange, and she will still be able to make a deal with the government.

"If my guess is correct, then who is the government trading with now? It is very strange that those metal minerals are not sent to the areas owned by the government, but to private land. Or rather, the fact that the army was trading with the Wall-E, but that someone in the army had betrayed and sent the materials away without the consent of the Wall-E landowners...... Hee-hee, I always think things are getting interesting. ”

…… What was the real reason why the army had sent the metal to the Vali territory? Eherth looked back at Lightning, who looked dazed and didn't understand what her master was calculating just now, and as soon as she gave the order, she asked the other party to follow her to the realm of the Vali clan to find out.

By the time Ehris and Lightning arrived on the scene on a yellow-haired bird, an hour had passed. Erhers and Lightning found a suitable place to park the yellow-haired birds, and went straight into the territory of the Wal-E.

They climbed over the earthen walls made of new materials and entered the courtyard of the Wal-E. The Wal-E's yard is home to many strange plants. After a casual glance, he found that most of those plants did not belong to the original human world, but strange plants transplanted from the Dark Continent.

From a distance, Erhes was already amazed by the sheer size of the courtyard area, but after entering the interior, shuttling between the trees in the courtyard and experiencing it firsthand, the sense of its enormity became even more accurate and profound.
