My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending

Approximately eight years after Ichi Hirazawa replaced Harold Stokes. I have been tormented scatterly by that mouth, which only exasperates sarcasm and rambling regardless of my will, but it is undeniable that I have also become somewhat accustomed to it during the eight years.

Because I can barely even open my mouth when I'm thinking about them hating me or hurting me. And even if rumors pop up that doubt humanity, you can't self-follow them with words and deeds after that. Well, the impression is less subtle than recovering from the worst scumbag to the worst scumbag, but it's more than not, and most importantly, it's something I'm used to hating and despising.

But there were still things Harold wasn't used to, either.

That's when you find yourself in the same situation as the game, you mouth the same line as the original. The same was true when I bought Clara's execution and went out and tried to disguise that death, or when Justus came to see me in the dungeon.

With regard to the latter, it could be said that the situation was different from that of the original, in timing, but identical in the sense that 'Justus tries to empower Harold'.

From the above, Harold wondered if something that should be called this original reproduction would happen to characters similar to the original in situations that would lead to developments along the lines of the original story. And it was also thought that it could not happen in a development that would be rebuttal but not portrayed in the original or in an already past setting.

On top of the few samples to be sure, which may be slightly weak on the basis, I couldn't possibly verify that Harold related was all that was likely to be directly linked to the death flag anyway, even if it was intentionally to have an event as original.

But now, that's happening at the nearest worst time. The line in the scene "Harold confronted the liner for the first time as an enemy" came out with his mouth faster than the word to fix it.

This is a combat event that originally occurs at the beginning stage when only three people are at the party: Liner, Colette and Hugo. The current main party has all six of us, and it's not the first time we meet the liners in the first place.

(Shit! Is that what you mean?!?

Harold concludes one answer with a head that keeps moving in a hurry.

Harold's first confrontation with Reiner was at the Martial Arts Games in Delphito. So I fought Liner, but that wasn't a fight as an enemy. Though in Fog Valley we confronted each other as enemies halfway through, it wasn't as Harold.

But now he appears as Harold on a scene that is supposed to appear as Harrison's handkerchief if it were the original. In front of the liner, as an enemy.

(... was completely alarmed)

It is a great deal that I had little chance of running the original line and could not explore the conditions in which it occurred. In addition, the fact that we have been fighting liners in the past, and that the current situation has already diverged significantly from the original.

Based on them, I never thought I'd be crossing the original line here.

"Hey, what are you talking about, Harold..."

That's how the liner leaked with a slightly trembling voice, as I saw something incredible. Well, I can also snort that pure liner will become so if I say a word that I just think Harold is suddenly hostile, which I don't even know about my fellow travelers with, but he was supposed to be on my side. I can see from that look that other facial differences are perplexing.

Except for Erica, who stares back at Harold in the face. I'm glad to realise that boulders just hate me. I'm sad. Not if I'm saying something missing between... etc.

"Is that what you're seriously saying?

"I don't know. If you cut me off, we might be able to find out, okay?

I tried to return a denial to Erica's inquiry, but it still only comes up with words that are provoking me. In short, a familiar development as usual. The track modification from here is the arm display point.

I turned my back on the liners first by turning around and turning my back. A silent appeal that there is no will to engage. I know I won't do anything in case they attack me from my back because of their character, etc.

It's a corner of the balcony to keep your back on your feet. It is a cabin that occupies about a third of the roof.

Put your hand on that door knob, but it's locked. I have no choice but to cut down every outer wall with every door and sword to check inside the cabin. Then there was a large collection of weapons there. I remember the game just being decorated with a few swords and axes on the wall, but it's not like I care.

A huge amount of weapons. There are obviously some of them that are viewed to draw a line with the others. The sword stolen from Reiner's house and the treasures that Harold and the others had unearthed from the ruins were seated in the center of the room.

In the meantime, if you have this in your hands, the main party's weapons will be enhanced. Well, I almost pack it when I challenge the Battle of Las Boss simply by equipping it, but I already have a solution for that area that moves and prepares Frieli. We'll have no problem getting the liners to get this weapon here.

"This is what you're looking for, isn't it? Liner"

That's what they said and brought it out of the Griffith family...... or throw the treasure sword 'Glam Gran' brought out by Harold. It drew a gentle arc and pierced the foot of the liner.

But the liner just distorts his expression and doesn't try to take the sword in his hand. Colette opened her mouth wondering about it.

"How... does Master Harold know that?

It's original knowledge, because it's the executioner who stole it, and I can't even say that.

But would it be so strange? It has been confirmed as Harold that a robber broke into Reiner's house and stole his sword.

But you will be noticed that in the next word you have committed a lapse.

"I've never even seen a liner with a sword, why..."

The non-sheathed glam gran was taken out of an iron box and decorated as it remained unplugged. If you've never even seen a liner, maybe the only ones who know the shape are Orbel and Leona, who excavated from the ruins.

Then, of course, it would be a strange story for Harold to see at first sight that it was a stolen sword. If Harold knew about it, the first thing that would come to mind from the current situation would be if Harold was connected to the people who stole the glam gran.

As far as the reaction between Liner and Colette was concerned, it was obvious that I was thinking of that hypothesis. And with all the complicated circumstances, it is a fact of the same dimensions.

I didn't have time to think long about how I answered. Returning silently or in between to this question is almost equal to affirmation.

You have to deny it immediately. But I can't run my mouth about bad things, Goto.

"Can't you guys understand without even being told that much?

As a result, it was those words that popped out of Harold's mouth. It was a response we could both receive, but clouding the word in this situation would only sound like it implied a dark affirmation.

Are you used to self-following recovery? No, the idea was just alarming.

(Was that a chronic flag...... flag collection too fast though)

Inside, I mock myself that that's “Harold”. I already wanted to get out of this place.

But it is common for inquirers not to wholesale it.

"Why... I thought you were one of us...!

The liner shook the Glam Gran pattern with a trembling hand. There were still so many tears in Harold's eyes that he seemed to spill.

This situation will be hard and helpless for liners who are honest, people are good and care about their family and companions wholeheartedly. Harold, who knows his character, perceives the mood.

I thought Harold was one of us, Reiner said. There will be no fine dust lies in that word either. If that's why Harold was connected to those who hurt his parents, then his anger and grief are immeasurable.

The air strained instantly. The cause of this is the liner with the sword, which releases pressure to intimidate the confronted opponent.

The opposing Harold also lays down his sword. Was it because I gave up that I was going to fight after all?

I did not envisage this development. Instead, he thought it was an inevitable battle if we went according to the original.

"... I don't need company. Did you forget I told you flocks are a way of life for the weak?

Still, I didn't want to fight the liners if I could. I didn't want to cross the blades with them, the heroes who save this world and the good men at the bottom.

I thought that the possibility might have come out of starting to diverge from the original, but that hope never seems to come true. Switch the switch of consciousness, prompted by the virtues of giving up that have been cultivated with accustom.

"Sure Harold is strong... but if he had that strength, he couldn't have protected people instead of hurting them!? I thought we could stop them!

That's what Reiner said as he looked sideways at Wentus and Lilium who put him to bed on the bench.

"Naturally. I'd be able to kill and lay low trying to be challenged by two people."

"Then why did you bring your father and mother...!

'Cause that's what I needed to do.

The word triggered it.

The liner comes packing an intermission with Harold in one flight. That step was extraordinarily faster than what I had previously seen in Fog Valley, and the sharpness of the sword flashes was definitely a departure from the ordinary man's.

And above all, the Glam Gran that the liner is now in possession of has the ability to absorb external magic and convert it into an Attribute Attack. A blow is waved down that wraps around the flame as if it had responded to the wrath of the liner.

A blade of flame that tries to burn down everything it touches. When Harold crossed the two swords and took them, he waved the sword as it was, bouncing the stopped liner backwards.

"Ku......!

A liner that resists shock and slips backwards without breaking down.

But Harold was already out of consciousness from him.

(There's no point in letting these guys get hurt! On the contrary, it sucks! What do you have to be most vigilant about here -)

Moment after moment, a shock strikes Harold's foot as he tries to step in.

Decided like a ground exploded about a meter away, with a single arrow stabbed in its center. Needless to say, there's only one person here who deals with arrows.

"" Wind Strike Fan "" Fukusaki ""

A voice as if it wasn't emotional. It belonged to Erica, who unleashed an arrow.

There were no colors of anger or sadness in those eyes, just as there were voices. They just showed Harold in an untouched way. It also looks like an elaborate doll that goes hand in hand with its neat appearance, and I feel creepy with its beauty.

"I don't know what Master Harold is thinking."

Such Erica has spoken unexpectedly.

"... so what?

"If you ask me why I have to fight and why, I guess I can't tell you"

……

Harold doesn't have a reason to fight the liners here. If you insist, the original event is just meshing compositely into a situation like this, but I'm the one who thinks I'm fooling around where I gave that explanation.

Harold pushes silence without knowing what to reply to.

"... I don't mind that anymore. If you want to fight, if you have a reason to fight us, I will."

"... you're a real pain in the ass, you are"

I smile unexpectedly as I spit out such a line. That wasn't sarcastic, it was a laugh of self-derision.

The original Erica is a person who attempts dialogue before fighting. I would do more fighting than being a party member of RPG, but I can assure you that I would never honestly nod even if I was forced to fight in view of my peeping personality in the story.

Erica, who seemed like the Virgin who wanted peace, said so much about that Erica, who had avoided fighting. I know exactly how much the presence of Harold is overlooked in her.

And it's not just Harold himself who's been trying to make it so. That can't be qualified to complain about stripping my fangs here and now.

Bow and squeeze the strings so Erica can target Harold.

It's also a battle with full members, with the main party at a different time than the original.

"Coming."

The curtain of that battle was cut and dropped with Erica's line.
