Hakai No Miko Chapter 134 (1/2)
“You are, the commander of these zoan…?”
Several days after the fall of the fortress, the captured Coht into as for his hands bound behind his back by a rope
He judged that it was definitely the black-furred zoan that defeated hireeted hi by the situation, either of these two su that, Marchronis observed the two and got surprised
He is aware that the fele of hisher wariness No matter how you look at it, this is no attitude to listen to so called them
In that case it's the human child that has called for me
He had already heard in the report fro the zoan, but now that he actually witnesses it like this, he cannot help wondering whether such a thing is even possible
“I' called for you My na Clan”
It's a s to the co ar at Souma's face for a short while, Marchronis said,
“I'm Marchronis My rank is Company Commander Aide”
The mysterious seal wasn't visible because a headband was coiled around the forehead, but he remembered that face
“So it was you after all, huh…?” (Marchronis)
‘There's no doubt that it's theto the fortress
“You know of me?” (Souma)
“You probably don't reht into this fortress” (Marchronis)
“Was brought in… froht that he has asked so that he didn't know the place he was at?
“For the details I'd tell you to ask ain that's so to consider if he hasn't died” (Marchronis)
Once he said that sarcastically, Sou
“… No, he's currently doing fine” (Souht Marchronis to the roo him, Souma said,
“Can I have you unfasten his rope since I'd like to talk with him?” (Souma)
“Is that fine?”
He asked Sou look of the zoan grasping the rope
“Yeah He doesn't look like someone orsen the situation of his subordinates by i up Besides, Shye that will i that with hisinto a smile due to Souma's words that show his trust in him
“Thanks It became more comfortable” (Marchronis)
Once Shyemul personally removed the rope, Marchronis rotated his arms to loosen his shoulders that were stiff because he couldn't freely ely at hi?” (Marchronis)
“It's just that I didn't expect you to thank her” (Sou his look towards Shyemul for a moment, Marchronis comprehended with an 「Oh!」
“Did you consider it odd for me to deal normally with a zoan?” (Marchronis)
“Yes The hu zoan as beasts” (Souma)
“That's not unnatural either In the arht that the zoan are lowly beasts Putting aside if it's one soldier at a time, for soainst the zoan once they gather in a group I dare say that the ones you saw have likely been such soldiers” (Marchronis)
“In that case, what about you?” (Souinally drifted here as mercenary In the mercenary band I was born and raised, demi-human species such as dwarves and dinosaurians— ah, excuse me” (Marchronis)
Marchronis corrected himself because it's a discriminatory term to call the races besides the humans as 「Demi-human species」
“There were mercenaries from other races present as well In my childhood I received a fist fro bread and I had a dinosaurian soldier with a nicely taciturn disposition give me a shoulder ride At that tiot norave you the idea that zoan are lowly beasts then?” (Sous he was asked
Most of the humans won't question it like that due to the army's drills and the country's policies
That's because the king, who decides the country's policies, is the one who governs the people as representative of God, and it's expected for the king to be entrusted with the soldiers in the ar similar to a natural providence established by God
However, Marchronis, andered through various countries as ed theiic in the very end
“That's because it's more convenient that way” (Marchronis)
For an elderly person spreading his teaching to pro youths is one of their enjoyments Marchronis is no exception to that either He wanted to try teaching his view to this unusual boy
“The humans multiplied And their numbers will likely steadily increase in the future as well If their nurow, the mouths to feed will increase in accordance, too They have to increase the nuroheat and potatoes so that everyone won't starve And, land is necessary for that” (Marchronis)
“I know that The zoan were driven away for the sake of obtaining the plains” (Souma)
“It is as you say” (Marchronis)
He said in a tone si an excellent student
“Hue acts, they love words such as legitih they just want to steal land to grow so to eat, they teach that it's justice to chase away the zoan fro an inferior race that should be destroyed ThatThat's the policy of the arh you don't believe in that, you ainst the policies of the aret dis instead ofbitterly as if to say that this is the reality
“There arelives, even that of other races But, if a person hesitates for an instant in a war, it will result in theht that it's fine to kill other races, or rather that they are existences that should be killed in fact So that they won't hesitate when push comes to shove” (Marchronis)
Marchronis shi+fted his attention towards Shyeuys, but the safety of my subordinates is more important to me than that of unfamiliar zoan” (Marchronis)
“It's a really unpleasant story” (Shyeust
Due to Shye slightly and looks up with upturned eyes
“I don't have any words to retaliate with Compared to us, the zoan not only took care of their prisoners but even went as far as healing their injuries” (Marchronis)
“Of course! We zoan are proud warriors!” (Shye out her chest, Sou the zoan by huuarantee the safety of the soldiers who becah Souma feels wary towards his shrewdness, he feels at the sa Souht be because he has been using his astuteness to secure the safety of his subordinates
“Don't worry To begin e have no intention to do anything to the prisoners It will be fine to even carry on the treatment of the wounded soldiers as you did until now” (Sou his intention, Souma fir his eyes slightly, Marchronis straightened himself and bowed his head very deeply
“I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your consideration” (Marchronis)
“However, in order for them to not rise in rebellion, I plan to restrict their area of activity and the nuether with They will also be ht — So, is it alright for me to tell everyone about this?” (Marchronis)
He's a cunning person after all, Souht
I have already told the zoan to not harm the prisoners, but for the prisoners to trust in that it's probably the best to have them hear it from the mouth of their own superior officer It's just to make double sure since it will result in a disaster if the prisoners cause a revolt in the current situation
“Yes It would help if you could do just that” (Souma)
“Don't mention it It's for the sake of both of us” (Marchronis)
