Reinhardt and Matthäus were walking between the dormitories, muttering to themselves. They had just finished breakfast.

Yesterday, on the way here, Matheus, who was guarding him, asked him <><><><<><<>.

"I heard you were attacked. I'll make a strong protest to Celluloid. It's not as comfortable as the inn, but it's safer.

Fritz said smiling. Reinhardt feels a little uncomfortable.

"Yes? What's wrong? Do you see something on my face?"

Reinhardt asked with a doubtful look on his face as he stared at Fritz.

"No, nothing on your face, but I thought you looked different..."

"Hmmm, is that so? Well, I don't know... everyone I've seen since this morning has been saying that, but I'm still me, you know?"

Seeing Fritz laughing, Matthäus could no longer remain silent.

"Major, are you sure something is not wrong?"

Fritz's brow furrowed slightly at the question.

"Nothing. "Nothing at all, except that I had a bad dream."

"Dreaming?"

"Dreaming? I had a dream that I was hit on the head and fainted.

When Reinhardt returned to his quarters, he found a familiar magical tool on the table. It was a manacam, a magical communication device.

"Anyway, if this list is true, it's a big deal!

A sheet of parchment was spread out in front of the Minister of Defense. It listed more than a dozen names. All are aristocrats who hold important positions in various ministries or are involved in the governance of important cities.

The title of the list reads .

"Anyway, there's nothing we can do without checking each one of them, is there?"

"Hmm. At the end of the article, it says that <>, is it true?

"Well, I have never heard of such a magic as ...... suggestion (seduce). You said so yourself, didn't you?"

"Commander, everyone in line, we're done!"

"Well done!"

The 3rd Knights of the Kingdom of Klein are lining up, but without armor, swords, or spears, they don't look very good.

"The situation is still unclear, but the Royal Franz Army has retreated. There is no doubt about it."

There is a slight murmur, but it soon disappears.

"That giant golem could have destroyed us, or even the enemy army, if it had wanted to. They were all unconscious at the same time. And now we've lost our weapons and armor as well.

Subcommander Niklas speaks to the adjutant next to him.

"Indeed, yes. Where in the world did they come from?

"You won't get an answer if you think about it. We have to think about the future. How many casualties this time?

What?

There were many wounded in the battle from yesterday to today. Especially those who were mortally wounded in yesterday's battle. However, I have just confirmed that all of them are recovering.

"What ...... is ......?"

That's exactly what I don't understand. The seriously injured have recovered even though nothing was done. No, maybe ......, Niklas imagines.

Maybe that giant golem did something.

And then he remembers what the giant golem said.

What? Who could drop one of those? One or two, maybe, but all of them?

The square in the village of Kaina was thick with smoke.

"Geez, it's smoky. Sarah, will you take care of the rest?"

"Yes, master."

In the village of Kaina, they are currently burning the wood chips from the query tree to smoke the mountain lion meat that Locke and his friends have caught.

It is smoky because it is smoked rather than burned. That's where Sara comes in. Sarah, the golem maid who doesn't have to breathe, works silently, and in no time at all, the preparations for the smoking process are finished.

All that remains is to continue smoking the meat until the moisture is absorbed.

"I'm looking forward to it, I'm sure tonight's drinks will be delicious.

Don't drink too much!

The village of Kaina is at peace.
