From four o'clock in the morning to the present, the two people except Natsume have looked tired.

"Haven't you arrived yet?"

This was already the border of France, and they had not received any information about the Knights of Orleans along the way, as if they had disappeared.

I guess I'm doing something.

Linking previous events, the Knights of Orleans may want to link up the circles everywhere in order to recreate the 'Plague of Justinian'.

Now that they have fallen silent, they are probably going to launch a big operation.

Natsume, who was walking at the forefront, saw a medium-sized city not far away by strengthening Shili, which was surrounded by a high mountain on the right and a long river in the back, and the terrain was very good.

"It's coming soon, right over there, so you can get some rest."

After answering Yasha's question, Natsume sped up and threw the two people down.

It's not that he wants to get to the city first, but for the safety of the two of them, Natsume will always take the first step to investigate the situation, and only after confirming that there is no danger will he let them enter the city or village.

Although he was often ridiculed by Yesa for being cowardly, Natsume never gave up on investigating in advance, and on several occasions Natsume killed the local thugs in advance to let them in, but he didn't tell them.

The small bridge that has been built by hand should have just been repaired from the structure and surface, and the timber and the stakes under the bridge are made of new wood, not old timber.

Unlike the new bridge, the road is overgrown with weeds, and from the height, it has not been repaired for at least a week, and I feel a sense of depression.

Natsume once attacked a ZUIHOU BOSS and forgot to save it an hour after being killed, and it wasn't so depressed.,It's just that the game console was killed later.。

Without further ado, Natsume followed the road into the city.

The name plate above shows "Ainoa", a border city located directly south of the French capital.

Inside, there are very few pedestrians on the road, so it can be said that all pedestrians stop their eyes on the cross-dressers who appear in the city.

That's right, maybe there are no clothes like yourself in this era, but in the eyes of others, I'm just an outsider with a weird shape.

With a hint of confusion, Natsume walked to an inn where the board was placed on the ground.

The furnishings are extremely rudimentary, and this is not an exaggerated metaphor, but a reality.

A few old tables, a bench with a few missing openings, and a not-so-bright kerosene lamp hanging overhead, it felt like you had arrived in an antique house from a long time ago.

"What do you need?"

At first, he was a little hesitant, but the store manager, who wanted to make money, greeted him.

He took out a few gold coins and put them on the table, which made the other party immediately smile kindly, which was a lot of money for him, but for Natsume, it was a 'small money' from the hands of the robbers. By the way, in fact, those people give themselves money to thank themselves.

Seeing the shopkeeper leaning over, Natsume first asked about the current situation.

"What's going on here?"

"Do you want to ask this? If you are a traveler or from someone else, an outsider, it is advisable to leave within this week, as it seems that the Order is about to pass through here. ”

"Don't worry, I'm not from the church, and you're not running away?"

"In this way, my previous generation, my previous generation, all lived here, how could I leave, since you want to know the reason......

First of all, the money was collected, and the boss sighed helplessly.

"I heard that the [Knights of Orleans], who had been scattered all over the country, had gathered, and that group of people who had used violence as 'salvation' seemed to want to do bad things again. A group of tourists passed by before, saying that from south to north, there was a large mobile team heading towards the capital, and it was estimated that it was the [Knights of Orleans]. ”

"Oh?"

Finally acted?

They want to start their own jihua in France, for the sake of the 'holy war' in their hearts, which is about to present the plague.

Natsume heard footsteps and looked back, and both Yesa and Trian walked in with puzzled expressions.

After ordering a few ordinary dishes from the owner, the three of them sat down at one of the most haode tables.

"Did you hear anything?"

"Yes."

Facing Trian, who was a little urgent, Natsume told the two of them what had just happened.

"It is necessary to act before they reach their destination, but there is still a doubt, they weishenme to divide Liliang so much, and now there are gatherings."

"I don't know, but you're right, and you'll have to do it before their revenge rampage begins."

Natsume was a little worried about the friend that Trian was talking about, and if that person was of use to them, then there were two possibilities.

One is the "body" of the "Joan of Arc" that received the oracle, and the other is used to reproduce the plague that killed nearly 10,000 people in one day.

With this possibility in mind, Natsume didn't put it forward as his own hypothesis, and now he can't mess around.

After several days of traveling, the three of them walked towards the same room after eating.

Although Natsume said that she should let Yasha live alone, she was 'too bored to be alone!' I'm not happy to drink! I refused for this reason, so I had to book a large room.

Therefore, Natsume worries about bathing and resting.

Even the large room had only two beds, and one man was destined to sleep on the hard bench.

Trian motioned for him to sleep on the bench, but Natsume refused, that would be unfair.

"Well, let's draw lots?"

"Is that okay?"

"I'm fine, but don't cheat on you!"

Seeing that neither of them objected, Natsume went down to prepare.

“OK！ Let's start the lottery! The long bed on the left, the short bed on the right, all of them are known to zuihou. ”

In order to rest as soon as possible, the three of them instantly pulled out the wooden sticks in Natsume's hand.

I'm long!

Yesa happily raised the long sign in her hand.

I'm short.

Scratching his head a little embarrassedly, Trian flashed the short.

Then both of them looked at Natsume, and Yesa was expecting Natsume to sleep on the bench that was not comfortable at all.

"Alright, I'm the long, so let's sleep together, Miss Yesha."

"Why! You guy! Say no cheating! ”

"Did I cheat, please? No, it's just a rule, and if Terrian and I both draw lots, we'll sleep together. ”

"But! No, no, no, this definitely won't work, I'm not going to sleep with you guy! ”

"Say what?? Isn't it just because I'm shy now? ”

"You, you!"

Realizing that she was being ridiculed, Yesha pulled out the big knife from behind her back.

"Cut off your totally incompetent brother!"

"Who did you learn this from! And my brother is not incompetent! ”

Dodging the other party's slash, Natsume said with both hands pushing the air

"Alright, alright, I know, I'll sleep on the bench."

"Hmph, in fact, it's ...... to sleep together"

"Did you say anything?"

"Nothing!"

Natsume actually heard it, but he's not very good at dealing with that situation, so it's better to pass, even KISS wants to MISS.

Alas? Did I just say a lot of English words?! I'm so a**!

When Natsume was excited to speak English again, he was tapped on the shoulder by Trian.

"If I could, I could swap things with Mr. William."

"Do you mean sleeping with Yasha? I can't see it. ”

"No, no, no."

Seeing Yesha who wanted to get angry, Trian hurriedly denied it.

"I mean I sleep on a bench, you can sleep in a bed."

"No, no."

I have no problem sleeping once a few days now, and the reason why I sleep is also an act that accompanies them.

After everything was done, the three of them were assigning beds and deciding on the rules (referring to the fact that they were not allowed to come near Yesha at night...... After that, the three of them fell asleep after a hard day's work.

Time passed, and the next day, Natsume, who was the first to get out of bed, noticed the restlessness in the city.

When I went out, many people were packing up and leaving their houses and fleeing out of the city.

Seeing the shopkeeper coming out of the kitchen, Natsume walked over to inquire, only to learn that the Knights would arrive here at night, and those who were afraid of them decided to take refuge in the castle.

But it was in vain.

Unless it's not a city close to the ocean, it's all likely to be attacked.

"What about the church here? They must have someone in charge of fighting. ”

"Leave early, it is said to be the summons of the general court."

"It's just right in time."

Natsume estimated the time, and there was no way.

Looking at the door above, Trian and Yesha were still asleep.

After moving his muscles, Natsume followed the crowd towards the outside of the city gate, but in the opposite direction.

"I'll end this battle."

The mercenary, the saint's name, the mighty power, the man who has it all, is crossing the border and facing the Knights of Orleans alone.
