Chapter 83 Safe Return

And so, only you came back escaping from them.

Um, one person and one animal.

Ai was standing in front of commander Norz and his aide Sylvia in a room within the headquarters.

You Fool! It doesnt change anything!!

Norz became enraged at her coming back with her cat only alive and not showing even a bit of timidness in her replies.

Please calm down

Just before 5 seconds Norz would have hit her, Sylvia whisper in her ears in a cold voice.

She is most probably one that Cardinal likes, if you raise hand on her do you think youll be forgiven?

GuBut still this

We dont have any time to deal with her, shouldnt we make plans for interception.

Tsk, Got no choice

Norz somehow calms down his rage and closes his eyes while folding his arms, as if he doesnt care whatever the adventurer says now.

Adventurer Ai, Thank you for your hard work, you can go now.

Ye~s

After giving an idiotic reply, Ai along with Tsumiki left the room. [ET: Tsumiki is her cat.]

However, finally we can fight a battle which doesnt feel like massacre.

Inside Norz words there were some hidden expectations.

He wasnt as good as Kievan but he was also a genuine believer of Cross, and hated the demons from the very bottom of his heart. In spite of that, the reason he went to occupy villages without more soldier was because his aide, Sylvia was holding his reins due to which he couldnt go on a rampage and Sylvia also negotiated like an expert with the villages to surrender.

Though the ability of Sylvia capturing villages without any resistance is something of very much value, but to Norz who was enthusiastic I will kill all the demons. It will be a bloodbath., the peaceful actions were somewhat unsatisfying for him.

The overdoing of Priest Kievan, must have put in the seeds of rebellion in the demons.

They have already heard from the soldiers that escaped about the crucifixion as an example of the Cross.

If they had easily occupied Irz Village like that, it might have served as a purpose for fear, but his actions in turn aroused the hate and seeds of rebellion in the other villages.

Fun, the enemies are just some lousy adventurers, whether they are demons or something else, we can send out hundred thousand soldiers if we want. But naturally, it wont be needed as our squad already has a lot of soldiers to complete this job.

Judging from the scale of village, even if all the villagers were to arm up and come at them, they wont be a match for Norz Squad.

Naturally, it is not like even women and children would come in fight, if they join hands with those who can properly file like vigilante corps or adventurers, they still wont make more than 300.

Unless a dragon or something appears, Norz squad will not be defeated.

Therefore, Sylvia was also not worried about this, but rather she was worried about the other matter.

There is nowhere they can now run to inside Daedalus territory. I will slowly drive them in corner while they feel regret along with the demons who opposed the god.

No, there is a place to escape.

What did you say?

Sylvias long and slender finger runs over the western part of Daedaluss map that was spread on the table.

There is no problem for us if they move along the south-west highway using from Kuar Village.

But if they, ran towards the west using the north-west, then they would

Beyond the line named as Galahad Mountain Range, there was a country name Spada written.

Impossible, I have heard that they are an enemy nation.

If they had somehow known that Daedalus has been defeated, the villagers will perceive the end of their country. I think it would be the most logical answer that they would run to Spada as refugees.

Fumu, there is a possibility of this information somehow being leaked

Norz frowned his eyebrows and groaned.

When we conquer the village they will just become newcomer of the new village. There will be no problem in leaving some combatants demons on their own.

Even if it will be a little, if demons will start a rebellion, crusaders side will have to suffer some casualties.

Judging from the whole war potential of Crusaders those casualties might not be much, but there is no harm in avoiding it.

No, it is not good.

But Norz rejects Sylvias suggestion of no fighting.

I can not accept this even if this is you proposal Sister Sylvia.

I see, well the commander are you do as you like, I dont want to meddle with you.

Sylvia refrained herself from speaking anymore useless talk to Norz who seemed to be determined.

Im really happy that you understand Sister Sylvia. Now let me give out my orders, dont let a single running demon live, just massacre them all, you got it?

Norz eyes while speaking that were the same as the Kievan who was also a religious fanatic.

After completing her reporting job, Ai returned to the campsite where her party, no, mercenary group friends were sleeping.

The occupation forces, take the tall
