My horse imdiately galloped towards the main city of Earl Timoti.
The journey on my horse's saddle felt a little boring, especially with the scenery that didn't catch my eye and the problems that kept popping up every second I passed.
My mind was still haunted by Momo's words that told that behind this attack was soone as troubleso as .
The sa thought...
The sa idea...
Even paying soone else to do the bad thing...
It was like I got a lot information that showed the similarities between and soone as troubleso as this. Sitting on the horse's saddle like this, I followed the pace of the horse that was being led by Evelyn.
Following from behind her who was heading towards the main city, I gave a small code to Aiko and Sirius who were in their sliball forms to move quickly to secure our way ho.
By giving that small code, several herds of stealth slis imdiately scattered to carry out the task I gave.
Swiipp...
Shhuusshh...
They imdiately spread out faster than my horse which was running fast like this.
"They can run faster than a horse now?" I muttered a little while holding back my surprise knowing they could move faster than before.
[ Supre Commander, are you listening to my voice? ]
When I had ordered the stealth sli herd to spread out, I suddenly heard a voice from one of the stealth slis who had served as a spy agent in another noble's territory under my supervision.
"Yes, I heard you. Is there a special report you want to give directly by contacting suddenly like this?" I replied in a thin and faint tone.
Wooosshh...
With the wind exposed to my horse's speed like this, I began to tighten my body position on the saddle of my horse which began to run without caring about the safe speed limit.
Sitting on this uncomfortable saddle, I listened to the report given by this naless stealth sli.
[ Yes, Supre Commander. This is a report that you must hear directly. ]
[ Do you still rember the people who caused chaos in your territory before? ]
"What's with that kind of question?"
[ We have discovered the involvent of this noble family in the smuggling of royal treasures in exchange for the services of a group that aims to satisfy the desire for destruction that will awaken the Goddess of Destruction. ]
[ Doesn't that sound quite terrible if it were to happen again? ]
"Has sothing like that happened before?"
[ Hasn't it happened before, Supre Commander? ]
[ We even found evidence of a strange sword being carried by one of the mysterious mbers. From the magic components and traces of magic emitted by it, it is similar to a sword we saw inside the body of the Golden King Bear. ]
[ I'm sure this is the sa group that caused chaos in your territory, Supre Commander. ]
Hearing the report given by the herd of stealth slis who served as spy agents made want to test them with so information. It seed like they had understood so of the information that was happening along with the red knot that were connected.
"I didn't know you could find important information like this as spy agents, is there any difficulty that the report given is a little longer than usual?"
Wuuussshh...
While enduring the wind that hit my fast-moving horse, I asked this stealth sli a vague question.
[ Yes, we were a little late in reporting because this one sword seed to be alive and aware of our presence. It's a little difficult to sneak in and find information if this sword is actively casting magic which makes it difficult for us to hear the contents of their conversation. ]
[ Forgive us for the delay in reporting this information, Supre Commander. ]
"No problem, it's because the sword you found is one of the cursed swords made by the Goddess of Destruction."
"A living sword that has its mind and consciousness. Now that makes wonder, are the cursed swords you saw pure swords made by the Goddess of Destruction or cursed swords made by humans using illegal black magic techniques?"
By asking a question like this, I seed like I was giving a tough task to the stealth sli who was on duty as a spy agent.
The only way I could think of right now to distinguish between the cursed sword that was originally made by the Goddess of Destruction or an imitation made by humans.
I will rely on Momo's ability to recognize her cursed sword sisters.
An unusual and difficult thod but with a high success rate.
[ Do we need to confirm this, Supre Commander? ]
With such a question, I gave a casual answer to the hed of stealth slis who were on duty as spy agents.
"For now, act according to the situation. You can report directly when they start moving and planning sothing, right?"
[ Ah! Yes! We can do that and it seems like we understand new information from the lip reading that has just been translated well by one of us. ]
"Hmm..."
On the saddle of a horse that was galloping like this, I tilted my face as if I heard sothing interesting.
Reading lip movents in spy activities, it can be said that it is quite a risky thod because human lip movents are often not precise in pronouncing consonants in words at the right lip movent interval.
But they can do read human lip movent... translation like this?
Haven't they developed a lot as a herd of stealth slis that specialize in spying?
I seem to have raised a stealth sli that is able to develop rapidly with the right education and assignnts.
In this way, at least I have been able to use the herd of stealth slis for various needs.
[ Do we need to tell you about this, Supre Commander? ]
[ Their current plan is not sothing that threatens your territory. ]
"Just tell , I also want to know what kind of stupid plan they are planning."
[ It seems like they are planning to spread poison around the territory of a noble who has the title of Earl. ]
[ If we not read their lips movent wrong... it Earl Timoti or Bimoli territory. ]
"They plan to spread poison in a river in Earl Timoti's territory."
[ Y-Yes, Supre Commander. How did you find out with such rough information? ]
[ Oh! They are also preparing to file a lawsuit against that Earl family through a legal report to the royal family after the widespread pollution of the river using poison. ]
"Oh, my, is that their brilliant plan?" With a seemingly lazy tone, I tried to enjoy the ride ho on the horse's saddle and listened to the report given by the stealth sli spy.
I felt that the tactics they used were not bad.
I felt amazed after previously feeling satisfied with getting an opponent that was equal to .
It seed like they were creating a good opportunity to attack legally or attack by invasion.
"I feel happy about this," I muttered without connecting to the Soul Ta communication channel.
"I didn't think they would do sothing crazy like this with thorough preparation."
While keeping my face from smiling and sitting quietly on the saddle of the galloping horse, I began to give further instructions to the herd of stealth slis who were on duty as spy agents.
"Continue your work in monitoring this noble family, I want reports on every movents their make to be monitored."
"I feel like they are making smooth movents like this by getting help from outsiders."
[ We understand, Supre Commander. ]
[ We will continue to monitor their movents that have beco more annoying like this. ]
"Uhm, as a note for you alls. I just stopped their movents that were polluting the river with poison that already happen."
"I don't want to say this, so please work more actively and keep yourselves from not being detected by that cursed sword."
[ Yes, Supre Commander! ]
After listening to the report given by the stealth sli, I began to glance at Mio and Evelyn who seed focused on what was happening around them.
After the ergence of the troubleso cult, they were much more careful with their surroundings which were filled with only trees and wild plants.
On the way back to the main city of Earl Timoti, we made a long detour and conducted a patrol military training.
With Evelyn's group's attitude and behavior being alert to their surroundings, it gave free ti to correct the truth that had been conveyed to the stealth sli herd that was acting as a spy agent.
"Did you hear my entire conversation earlier, Momo?" I asked Momo who was not far from my horse's saddle.
"I heard it clearly, my Monarch."
"Well, maybe it sound stupid... What is your view on this matter?"
"My view on this matter? Isn't it obvious... they are not fools who can move as complicated and structured as this. Soone control them..."
Hearing the answer given by Momo, made feel relieved because we have the sa view on strange oddities like this.
"This one cult usually only contains a group of fanatical fools who will do anything to achieve their goals. Usually not far from the damage caused by their muscles and stupidity."
"I know that feeling, especially after eting Jean," I replied, with a tired look after rember Jean's fanaticism towards the Goddess of Destruction.
Brrrttt...
My body suddenly felt goosebumps when I thought about this and my mind began to replay the scene where Jean began to obey my every command.
"Ahhh... this gives goosebumps when I rember it again," I continued to grumble after understanding the stupid characteristics of this cult.
"Fools who gather in one place but suddenly move together with full preparation like this, they like puppets being controlled by soone. Nothing more than that..." in my one sentence, I imdiately gave a gentle caress to the handle of my cursed Odachi.
"It would be very doubtful for them to move without direction from soone who seems to understand the political conditions that are happening in the Aurora Kingdom."
"Soone who made Princess Anastasia herself must have moved behind the scenes by calling an ergency eting attended by the royal family and several important nobles who are her closest allies."
"...That is if they are allies of the royal family... without any ally impostor behind it..."
