Chapter 113: Tovar
After saying goodbye to the three, he didn't immediately choose to do it, but quietly watched the actions of the three from a hidden place. It wasn't until the three of them walked into the underground sewer that they withdrew their gaze.
"You're really more and more like an instructor now, it's like a different person compared to the Ike I've seen before." The blonde youth, who had been staying behind Ike, spoke when he saw Ike turn around.
"That's just wishful thinking." Ike spreads his hands: "But this time it's thanks to your intelligence. I didn't expect that in this big city, no one would regularly check such an important underground network. ”
"It's because it's in the base camp that it's ignored by others." What do you mean by the phrase "Youth Interface?" That's it when it's dark under the lights. ”
"Speaking of which, you've become a guerrilla, Tovar." Ike looked at the youth, "But aren't all the Empire's guerrilla associations destroyed?" Where did you go to hide? ”
"What a disaster," complained the short-haired young man named Tovar, "and at last ran like a rat to Grayram and hid." At that moment, the guerrillas were no different from criminals. ”
"Then you still ran away, it seems that the Imperial army is just an ornament?" Ike asked with a smirk.
"It's not like you're going to kill them all." Tovar scratched his head embarrassedly, "It seems that the above meaning is only to expel the guerrilla association, as for the guerrillas, judging from the casualty reports later, there are no fatalities except for the wounded. ”
"It's really surprising that he also has a merciful side." Ike replied with a whistle. "But that's why I was able to receive information, and this is also a coincidence."
"Although it was Sarah's commission, I really didn't expect you to come." Tovar smiled wryly, "Didn't you just show your face at Crossbell?" Why did you run to the military academy to become an instructor? ”
"Things are over for the time being, and it's probably like Sarah to accept the government's recruitment." Ike laughed, "With this title, it will be quite convenient to move within the empire, how about it?" Why don't you come over and be an instructor too? I think your channeling magic was pretty handy. ”
"Forget it, I'm used to being free now, if you want to be an instructor, you should spare me." Tovar replied.
"After all, don't you just forget obsidian?" Ike despised "wanting to join the Knights and being kicked out, and finally chose to be a guerrilla after being introduced." ”
"How many years ago did this, so don't turn it out, right?!" Tovar blushed and argued, "Again, she's right. I really can't become a Star Cup Knights with a character like mine, and I just dragged my feet when I went there. ”
"Phew! Who told you that." Ike despised "The reason why neither she nor I chose to pull you into the Knights or 'our' side is because of some childish habitual character. This thing can be recultivated in just a few months. The real reason is because you are missing the 'decisive factor'. Ike pointed to Tovar's chest, "People who haven't seen the 'world' will question it even if they join." Instead of this, it is better for you to join the guerrillas, although it is not good, but it is true that the guerrillas are the best place for you. ”
"When you say that, I always think I'm a defect." Tovar pretended to be sad.
"Besides, what's so good about that obsidian that makes you so obsessed." Ike looked puzzled, "Tell me how good she is?" ”
"That lord is resolute and powerful. And quite gentle. Tovar replied with a wistful look on his face, "The matter of commanding the Knights doesn't need to prove how good she is, right?" ”
"Well, violence is coming, and everything is fought first and then talked about no matter what. These really don't need to be proven. Ike scratched his head, his face a little gloomy, "As for gentleness... I'm sorry to break my seven ribs, a left arm and a right leg, plus a bunch of big and small injuries that left me in bed for three months to recover. I don't think even the top of the Knights can't imagine it, but it's better to say that imagination alone is enough to burn the brain. ”
“。。。 Isn't it really because you can still appear in sight alive now, but it's unimaginable? Tovar looked surprised, "But I really can't talk to you about the adult." ”
"I think that's going to be the case with whoever you talk to about obsidian." Ike rolled his eyes, "At least the few 'ranked' people I know have never heard of obsidian and such a side." Well, if you have to say it, she is indeed quite 'gentle' in terms of interrogation. Pejorative. Even the heretical sanctioner once suspected that she had written the Obsidian with a knife on the author's neck. So he was retaliated by Obsidian," Ike gloated.
“。。。 If I argue with you now, I'll think I'm stupid. Tovar sighed, "I'm fine, let's get down to business." What are you going to do next? Although they did go into the underground waterways. But this is the stronghold of the aristocracy, and if they rob criminals or something, they can easily blockade the city if they are discovered. At that point, no one will be able to get out. ”
"Peace of mind Toby." Ike replied, "This is not their fortress full of 'secrets'. They can be said to be quite confident and relaxed here. Even if it was discovered, those nobles probably wouldn't want this scandal to get out. This is Bayahat, once the whole city is blocked, it is easy to trigger a backlash from the nobles, this kind of thankless thing, presumably the leader should know about it. Ike turned and looked around, "As for now... Toby: Do you know where to go for tea? ”
"Do you still have the heart to drink tea?" Tovar was surprised.
"And what are you going to do?" Ike asked rhetorically, we can't do anything now, and I won't do it if I can. This is their internship, not mine. All I can do now is drink tea quietly on the side and wait for the person who can fix things to come back. ”
"Someone who can solve things ... Do you mean that Lufas, the son of the Duke of Albardia? Tovar looked relieved, "Indeed, if it were him, he would be able to make those nobles stop." But how can you guarantee that he will listen to you? ”
"It's very simple, because he's a rare sensible guy in the public capital, or someone who can make long-term plans. Now is not the time for the nobles to make trouble, and for the sake of their plans, they must not want to provoke a war with the regular army now. Since neither side is ready for war, then we can naturally exploit some loopholes. Ike replied.
“。。。 You have another hand ready. Tovar stared at Ike, "That's not what I know. ”
"Of course." Ike sneered, "If he doesn't listen, a duke's son is enough to change the chief's son, right?" ”
"Is it really a kidnapping as the bottom line?" Tovar sighed.
"Don't say it so badly." Ike shrugged, "If my kids were here, she'd probably say that." Acke paused, looking in the direction of the Duke of Albardia's palace.
"Tea party... How is it? ”
