Chapter 252: The Shape of Battle

At any rate, it seems like I made it in time……

Also, Episode 21 of the manga was released for free on Comic Gardo today.

Episode 21 depicts the Heroes on the Goddess’ side. Yasu Tomohiro is in quite the disastrous (?) situation in the main story, but his unique skill is very cool.

In addition, the latest Chapter 22, which is currently a pay-per-view chapter, finally features Nyantan. After reading Chapter 22, I’m having this urge to increase the number of times that Nyantan appears in the main story……

Well then, I hope you enjoy the main story.

————–He’s lying.

It was a casual signal from the nearby Seras.

A signal that indicates when someone “lies”.

Which means, he’s not lying.

That man isn’t John Doe.

Still blending among the soldiers, overlooking the situation……

“He’s still within that crowd”.

That would be the best position to observe something.

Of all people, I would know of this.

However…… Which one of them is he?

All of the 6th Cavalry were closely observing our movements too.

[…………………..]

Even so, the mask comes in handy at times like this.

It makes it hard for others to read the movement of my eyes.

However, I have to be careful.

I have to act like I’m not aware of their lie.

[Well then, first of all, I have to ask you the one most important questionーー.]

Ferenoch asked.

[Why is the Fly King Squadron on this battlefieldーー?]

[I thought the head of the Mad Emperor might be a good souvenir.]

[What do you meanーー?]

[I may have barely defeated the Great Demon Emperor’s Confidant, but this body of mine learned the horror of the Tyrant’s Miasma. Such enemies clad with Tyrant’s Miasma should really be left to the Heroes from Another World.]

Ferenoch crossed his arms.

[Continueーー.]

[As you can see from the battle in the Anti-Demon White Castle, I am on the side of the Holy Alliance. The Great Demon Emperor is an evil that must be defeated…… Therefore, it was needed that the Holy Alliance would do their best in facing them. I thought about what it is that I can do to assist the Holy Alliance in this case. That’s when I learned about Mira’s insurrection.]

[I see, I’m beginning to understandーー.]

[What is it that’s troubling Vysis-sama, the leader of the Holy Alliance, the most right now? We have determined that it is probably Mira, and the Mad Emperor.]

[Indeedーー.]

[And then…… It seems like Mira’s forces, led by the Mad Emperor, were working with the Faraway Country.]

[That is something Captain is already aware ofーー. However…… That doesn’t guarantee that you will be on our sideーー. Everything you’ve said may be a lie, and you’re actually on Mira’s sideーー. If it’s just words, you can say whatever you wantーー.]

As if to take over, “John Doe” spoke.

[If you’re on our side…… you’ll need something that would convince us.]

[I thought you might say that————–]

I brought the sling bag on my shoulder onto my lap
