Chapter 187: Levy's Troubles
In the evening, to the west of the horizon, the sun has gradually set below the horizon, and among the rolling hills, a brilliant red glow is very beautiful.
But at this moment, standing in some ruined village, looking at a grave neatly placed on a cliff around the village, which did not correspond to the ruins around it, and the pious young man holding a hundred flowers in front of the grave, whether it was Garcia or Martha, was not in the mood to immerse himself in and admire the beauty of nature at this moment, but to offer his deepest sorrow for the dead like the young man in front of him, even though it was a stranger.
On the way here, the two of them had already learned from Lévy's mouth about what happened to this once-thriving village called "Hamel" before the Hundred Days War between Liber and the Empire, and the intrigues that made people feel angry and powerless when they heard it - the anger was due to the unscrupulous means of the Empire's main war faction to create a pretext for war, and the powerlessness was due to the fact that Liber and Erebonia chose to remain silent in their way of handling things later.
Real life isn't black and white, and not everything will go the way people want it to go – not to mention Garcia, even Martha knows it. But this did not prevent the two of them from feeling angry and sad for the deceased whom they did not know.
"Thank you." Looking at the name of the owner of the tombstone in front of him, which was weathered with great tenderness, but still clearly written on it, Karin Asterre, Levi stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the side of the stonestone, as if looking at some incredible treasure. After a few minutes, he stood up and said this to his two companions.
Ever since his plan to "test humanity" failed, Levy has been in a state of confusion and confusion. He was touched by the tolerance of the Liber royal family, but in fact there was almost no place for himself in this world. In this case, Levi first trained and received guidance with the seventh pillar, Arian Hurd, while taking care of Rei, who had not fully untied the knot at that time, and after that, he was busy with the things entrusted to him by another of his friends. Now Levi is no longer the "Shura" he calls himself, but a powerful and reliable swordsman.
Although Levi is reluctant to tell Hamel's story to others, the two people next to him can be regarded as companions. Now Levi is also learning to say something to the people around him, instead of suffering in silence like before. Of course, he would never admit it, because he felt something after seeing Joshua surrounded by a group of trustworthy and trusted companions who could be trusted without reservation.
Martha, who heard Hamel's story, looked sad and silent; Garcia on the side pouted and said, "No serious hunter would accept this kind of mission", and the reaction of his partners also made Levi feel that his attempts and efforts were not in vain.
"Whew. That's it. Levi said to his companions, "Your companions must have set up camp in the canyon over there...... Now it's time to take the next step. Garcia, I'll leave that to you. ”
"Wrap it up on me." Because Levi's identity is inconvenient to come forward, Garcia, who has a past identity that can be said, decided to go to the imperial capital first to see the problems of stepping on the ground and testing in the task requested by Hailiga. Although they felt that there should be no problems at that time, after all, both Hyliga and Oribat had said that the Sankot district was the most prestigious old town in the imperial capital, and even if there was a war, it would be the last city to be affected by the war.
"I'm going to find a suitable response, and a path to mass transfer. Lévy is here on standby—that's how it was arranged. Martha, who was on the side, took over the conversation and said the follow-up arrangement.
"Hmm. That's it. Levi nodded, and Garcia and Martha looked at each other, and immediately left, going their separate ways.
When the two of them were far away, Levi took out a two-folded envelope from the large pocket of the trench coat with a solemn expression. He took out the contents of the envelope, looked at it carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he stuffed it back into the envelope and put it back on the inside of his clothes.
This was what Heliga had specifically tabbed, or rather begged him to do—and although he was surprised at first, he gradually understood. It is normal for political struggle to do everything in its power...... And he believed that Heliga would not use such things to satisfy his crazy perverted desires, as Joachim did.
Heiliga's hesitant appearance is probably because he feels unbearable because he thinks of Ling, and he is afraid that it is difficult for him to accept it in his own heart. But it can't be helped—Levi thought, and he himself said that if he could, he really hoped it would never be useful.
Even Martha and Garcia, Levi has been hiding this from them. Although a large number of documents related to the Order were seized or destroyed after Joachim's arrest, Lévi managed to figure out a way to take the crucial part that Heiliga needed.
"That's all it can be now. Alas...... Hopefully, after this incident, I can find a way to cheer myself up soon. The lord also said that if I continue to drag on like this, my foundation will be extremely unstable. ”
While Lévi stood alone in the ruins of Hamel worried, Martha and Garcia trotted away from the high ground and talked to each other.
"Levita...... Is there something on your mind? Martha asked Garcia worriedly.
"Probably. Although it has been more than ten years, his hometown has become like this, and his family has died tragically, even if it is a person like him, it is normal to be moved. Garcia replied.
"That's not what I'm talking about...... Do you have any sense that he is hiding something from us? ”
"Probably. I don't really care though. He's very strong, so I wouldn't be surprised if there was any additional connection with that kid. Since they didn't say it, we should assume that it doesn't exist. Garcia thought for a moment, "If you have to say something, it seems that there are some subtle problems in his martial arts—it is suppressed for the time being, but sooner or later a long-term solution needs to be found." It's just that, judging from our strength, we can't provide any substantial help. ”
"Alas...... That's right. Martha said helplessly, "If only when could there be—"
"Wait a minute." Garcia said suddenly, then grabbed Martha's hand and pulled her to hide in the grass on the side of the path, "There's someone over there." ”
