Hakai No Miko Chapter 9 (1/2)

“Sorry that I kept you waiting, 《Ferocious Fang》” (Shyemul)

The place she met with Garam is where the mountain’s interior opened up into a sround of Shyeether in their childhood The scratches of their height co at the square’s side, aroused dear nostalgic emotions

“Shyemul, at least e are here, you don’t have to be so formal, I believe” (Garam)

“That won’t do The village’s strongest warrior, 《Ferocious Fang》 fagul Garguss Garaht noell No rettably I can’t neglect the for from the ” (Shyemul)

Gara all serious while talking

“Don’t tease er sister…” (Garam)

“It’s a joke, brother” (Shyemul)

At last Shyemul's expression broke into a smile

“So, brother, there’s no way that you arethe friendly relationshi+p between an elder brother and his younger sister at such time, is there? Tell me, just what the heck happened?” (Shyemul)

“Yea… But, first it’s about the hu” (Garam)

“I will treat hi, I will take the blame” (Shyemul)

Before she’s told anything by Garam, she beat him to the punch with her words

“Gr either if you have resolved yourself that far, but…” (Garam)

“But, what?” (Shyemul)

“Yea, about that…” (Garam)

Is it so to talk at all as he keeps chewing on his lips

“Brother, can you get to the point?” (Shyemul)

“S-Sure!” (Garam)

While saying so, Garam turns his face away to the side

“The truth is, between our brethren an odd ru that the reason for you taking the huuy” (Garam)

“Huuuh?” (Shyemul)

A harum-scarum voice escaped Shyery like a raging fire

“Is the one who is spreading such an unfounded ruaqua?” (Shyemul)

Garaer sister who looks as if she’s going to go beat the the naossip in the village

“Calm down! I hit them already after all…” (Garam)

“Good grief Brother, there’s no way that you believed such a ruht?” (Shyemul)

“Don’t be stupid There’s no reason for me to believe in it, is there!?” (Garam)

“In that case it’s fine, but…” (Shyemul)

“But, you know, aren’t you responsible for that as well?” (Garam)

If she’s seen taking care of a huallantly while she herself is also reeling fro that so happened

“At the time when I rescued you out of the fortress, your obsession towards the human child was abnorle roether with a man, albeit a human, in your own tent…” (Garam)

“I explained that already, didn’t I!? I told you that he shared his own re food withme to become someone who doesn’t return 『the favour of a rabbit received at the time of starvation』!?” (Shyemul)

“But, it’s like that, even you, as a girl at e…” (Garam)

Shyeue with her even further

“Please stop it already! Jeez, let’s end the conversation with this! If you don’t have anything else to say, I will go back now!!” (Shyemul)

Even Gara due to his younger sister’slook

Besides, what they will talk about fro Garam’s serious expression, Shye that it’s no trivial matter

“The clan member I sent as scout to the fortress, where you had been imprisoned, returned It looks like fresh human troops entered the fortress” (Garam)

“Troops?” (Shyemul)

“Yes, their numbers are around 800 in total The majority of them seem to be soldiers with prepared ars of the fortress as not all of them fit inside” (Garam)

“There’s even 800 of them!?” (Shyemul)

The only ones in the area who are opposing the humans in that fortress are the zoans Newly arrived soldiers means, almost without doubt, that they were dispatched to clean us up

“I thought that they were planning to flush us out, but it appears I took their seriousness lightly” (Garam)

“How ht do we have currently?” (Shyemul)

“The nuht doesn’t even reach 50” (Garam)

This was also Garam’s fault

At the ti the food they had stored for passing the winter If the winter intensifies from now on, it will become evenedible in the vicinity of their refuge will be consumed in less than a month What reer or cold

Judging it like that, Gararoups and sent them out to search for a place where they can pass the winter

And, the left behind elderly and children, ere considered unfit to endure such long trip, as well as the families, who have such people, have to ration out and survive on the food that can be found at the current refuge and its vicinity Even so, in order to supple rations, the minimal amount of warriors that only ree were also forced into providing food The warriors who had left to find food rationed what the they brought back by sequential order trying to hold out until spring

However, because it was such a harsh mountain winter even for the zoans, I never expected the humans to send out suchout the zoan extermination, Garam lamented However, it's already too late

Even if I call our brethren together at this point in time, it will probably be too late In order to not overlap with each other in the places where they are searching for food, they should be scattered over a quite wide range

“Taking on 800 human troops with no more than 50 brethren…?” (Shyemul)

Voicing it out ain Shyemul looked up to the sky

“Brother, is it impossible for us to run away?” (Shyemul)

“Tell me to where?” (Garam)

“Anywhere’s fine Us warriors don’t mind death However, just the children and elderly…” (Shyemul)

“Unless there’s so to eat, they won’t be able to run away anywhere” (Garam)

To begin with, those ere left behind in the village are the people ere judged to be unable enduring a long trip

Even if they escaped for argument’s sake, how far will the feet of the elderly and children be able to run? It's nothing but suicide to try and escape on a wintry mountain when there isn’t even sufficient food

“Can’t we get the other clans to accept at least the elderly and children then?” (Shyemul)

Even as she said this, Shye that they could only wish for All clans are chased by humans, and thus the best they can do is to sily they don’t have the leeway to accept people of other clans, I guess

“I will try to sound out the <claw clan=””> and the <mane clan=””> But, it’s impossible to expect much out of it” (Garam)

The <fang clan=””> was once hailed as one of theup next to the , but when she thought of the current situation, Shye back the lost soil of their ancestors, the clan’s fate is already in a precarious situation

“Therefore, there’s so I want to request from you” (Garam)

“What is it, brother?” (Shyemul)

“I’d like you to become the envoy for the <claw clan=””>” (Garam)

“Brother!!” (Shyemul)

Shyeed She could read her elder brother’s aier in nareat God of Beasts No ht be, they elcome her with open arms
