"In any case, I can't stay in the Gigantic Isles for much longer. By now, both the castles of Maust and Yagmouri are being targeted by the lords of Hasse. That's why I want to leave the Giant Island Division after things have settled down.

　Nevertheless, the reason why the clan was able to survive without being destroyed by other clans was largely due to its geographical advantage.

"It is said that the city is also strongly influenced by the winds of other continents from a regional perspective. There is a group of people who wield special spear-like weapons called tridentei, and elite troops continue to fight until the last man is killed, even if the general is dead."

"The current head of the family, Sarhoz Sammu, is a blue-haired hero whose mother is rumored to be the daughter of a royal family from another continent. He is said to have countless scars on both arms and legs. Things are different from what they used to be. If you go in with the same sensibility as before, you will be in danger.

"The more I hear about them, the scarier they are. ....... The forests around here are much darker than the ones Raviara knows. It gets even darker. ....... It doesn't even feel like we are fighting in the same country ......"

"Oda Nobunaga, I heard that you didn't go to the front lines much in your later years. Yes, that's the right way to fight. It's enough to send your commanders to the battlefield. A champion never goes into battle himself.

"How can I help you, Mr. Arsrod?"

　Sorry, Raviara. I'm not possessed by any evil spirit or anything. I'm just in a high state of mind.

But I still want to run the battlefield. If I can, I want to slay the last enemy with my sword and win the world. It's much more interesting, isn't it?"

　--Whether that's fun or not is up to you. I don't think it's funny. It's too risky. When I injured my leg joining the attack on Honganji, I only thought that there was something wrong with my plan.

　--However, when we fought at Honnoji, I did find it surprisingly interesting. I felt that I had tasted the taste of the battlefield for the first time in a long time. It was the same when we ran into Imagawa on the high ground at Dengaku-no-Kazama.

　--Nobutada fought hard at Nijo Palace. His skill with the sword was considerable. That's why I couldn't think of a way to escape. If he was as cowardly as Nobumasu, he could have easily made a move of escape and Oda's reign would have been delayed only a few years.

　--You'll look funny to Raviara if you talk aloud.

It doesn't matter. It's strange for the High King to care about someone else. That doesn't make you the High King. And Laviala will definitely follow me!

"Um, ...... I'm not sure, but ...... Laviala will follow Master Arsrod wherever he goes. ....... Even to the place of death!"
