- I'm in danger.

The man in front of them who blocked their way was the strange outsider who had appeared beside Olel in the past few days.

As a clerk who has been with Oriel for a long time.

Walter was sure that Oriel, a few days ago, was still normal.

Just the right time, just the right place, just the right block.

Taken together, these factors are naturally the most suspicious objects.

The orc affairs officer broke out in a cold sweat, his hands clenched, and his eyes fixed on Ronald who appeared in front of him.

"You...... No, it's you! ”

"Lord Oriel's disappearance is a conspiracy of yours. Even if you stop me here, you won't be able to keep it a secret forever. Wait! Lord Aurel is a Venerable One who has ruled this realm for countless years, and your intrigues ......"

"Stop, wait!" Seeing that the orc in front of him was about to lose control of his emotions, Ronald hurriedly waved his hand to comfort the other party and said, "I didn't come here with malicious intent, but I came here to explain the actual situation to you." ”

At the same time as the negotiation, Ronald's movements were also a lot.

On the surface, he was talking normally with the orcs on the other side, and even expressing kindness, but in fact, he had already brought his own speech and spirit spells with him in the conversation, and it was a mixture of multiple words and spirits!

It's just a pity that the restrictions remain as always.

Even if Ronald adjusted the details of the spell release, the spirit of words could only target humans, and was completely ineffective against the orcs in the world of [Song in the Forest].

You can only continue to follow the conversation to convince the other party.

Or at the risk of disrupting the ritual, directly subduing the orcs in front of you with violence.

For Ronald with clear needs, the best option would only be the former.

"Actually?" The orc, who had been staring at Ronald all the time, also spoke at this moment, and the attitude of worry and distrust was written on his face without reservation, "You made me believe that a person who appeared by such a coincidence? Especially the opportunity for adults to be replaced by this ridiculous thing, and it coincides with the time of your appearance! ”

Ronald was about to open his mouth to explain, but the clone of Oriel, who was closer to the orc affairs officer, spoke at this moment:

"Walter, don't get me wrong, my most honored guest."

"Mr. Ronald is here to save the noble man from danger, how can he be some suspicious fellow?"

“……”

The atmosphere at the scene was at a low point.

The doppelganger left behind by Olaire is completely inclined to Ronald's side.

So even if what he said was in line with reality, speaking so honestly seemed to the affairs officer Walter at the moment to be full of mocking threats.

"A puppet! When you hear questions about yourself, you don't defend yourself, but instead take a stand for you? ”

The orc officer's anger almost erupted from his eyes, and the conversation just now had no effect on calming his mind.

"Fanatic, you're going to fool me......"

Suddenly, the angry voice of the orc affairs officer came to an abrupt halt.

Because at this very moment.

He saw Ronald, who was standing across the street, suddenly disappear.

At the same time, a powerful hand also clamped his neck fiercely.

"...... who didn't want to use violence"

"Listen to me—"

"If I really wanted to do something to you, a few seconds ago, things would have turned out like this."

That's when Ronald's voice reached Walter's ears.

The orc officer, who was having trouble breathing, was pinched and had begun to run out of oxygen. With the color of his face changing suddenly, he tried to make some noises and use his strength to defeat the enemies in front of him.

But at this moment, let alone spit out a word or two, it seems difficult to even control his jaw.

"Ho... Uh-huh—"

It became harder and harder to breathe, and the terrifying force that he couldn't break free from was like steel locking his throat.

Under the fear of this repression and the threat of death, the orc officer even had the illusion that his neck was being burned by the flames, and the feeling of vertigo was slowly encroaching on his mind.

However, in the next moment, the fire tongs that were powerless to resist disappeared in an instant.

Walter, whose eyes were already red, breathed a sigh of relief in an instant, and his weak body immediately knelt on the ground, leaving only instinct to drive him to breathe.

"Ha-ha-"

"Got it? If I really want to do something to you, you don't even have the possibility of resisting. ”

Ronald's voice rang out again.

The orc officer clutched his throat and looked up to see the man looking down at him condescendingly.

"Now, you can stand up."

A right hand, a hand that had just clamped his throat, was stretched out in front of Walter.

The orc officer looked at the man in front of him, and then at the hand in front of him.

Realizing that the reality was so cruel, he had no choice but to hang the weight of his body on his arm and be dragged from the ground by the other party.

"Look, isn't that enough?"

Seeing the submission of the orc affairs officer, Ronald smiled and pulled the other party up:

"I know you're desperate right now, feeling like Olaire, or the city, is in crisis. But what I'm telling you is that things may not be rosy, but they are definitely not as hopeless as you might think. Come on, come with me, let's talk in detail in a safe place. I will explain the confusion you are facing, and when the truth is known, the choice will be yours. ”

The orc officer rubbed his aching neck and asked, almost instinctively:

"I want to know Lord Oriel, he ......"

"Stop." Ronald interrupted the other party's question again, and pointed around, "Look at the situation here, is it appropriate for us to talk about this kind of problem?" ”

Hearing this, the orc officer looked around.

Only then did he realize that the originally deserted streets were filled with orcs one after another, and most of them had dissatisfied expressions.

- Actually, in order to be able to free up such a place to stop people.

Ronald, who had no way to control the orcs, had just come up with modern marketing tactics and lied that an event was being held on the street next door, so that all the orcs on the road were tricked away, and at this moment, the people who realized that they had been deceived turned back.

As the culprit of everything, Ronald didn't want to stay here for long.

The words landed, and he walked forward quickly!

At the same time, he did not forget to say to the Clone of Olel standing on the side:

"You're with us, and you're indispensable for this."

Ole's doppelganger is still in the previous logic, so he naturally refuses this invitation:

"No, I still have something to go back to the palace to deal with."

Ronald said in an almost commanding tone:

"Leave the inconsequential stuff alone, come with me!"

“……”

"Okay, I'll listen to you!"

Before Olaire left, it seemed that Ronald had left them with extremely high doppelganger inclination permissions.

Hearing this, Oleel's doppelganger immediately obeyed the order.

Without any hesitation, he followed Ronald and the two out of the street.
