“First, everyone please take a seat.”

Shamir first sat on the sofa and sipped coffee.

“So what is this document?”

I handed the document to Shamir.

“Looking at it, it looks like he will leave anyway, so please keep it in your arms.”

“You have to tell me what this is so I can carry it with me…”

I looked at the document.

It was written in squiggly letters so I couldn’t read a single thing.

“You can keep it with you and show it to the Turkiye army when you are caught.”

“What kind of ID certificate is that?”

Shamir’s eyebrows twitched at my words.

“I think you should know that.”

“Shamir, do you have mine too?”

“Is that possible?”

“That’s right.”

Laurent chuckled and drank his coffee.

“I can only hope that I never have to use this.”

I shrugged and handed Laurent the document.

“Please understand that it’s because I don’t have pockets.”

“I didn’t say much.”

Shamir smiled and looked at me.

“Before you go, if I could tell you one thing, I would say that this war was fought quite unreasonably.”

“A war that was waged unreasonably?”

“Hmm…”

Shamir scratched his chin and pondered something.

“It doesn’t matter.”

He seemed to have made up his mind soon and chuckled.

“Did you know that Turkye and Osterburg fought a hundred years ago?”

“I know. Vienna almost fell at that time.”

“It was a battle that was pushed through ignorantly, so only troops and materials were wasted, and there was no benefit. So this time, it looks like they are trying to surround them and kill them.”

“Are you saying you’re going to protest there?”

“It hasn’t been long since the siege, so nothing much has happened, but if this continues for a long time, the situation will become more dire.”

“But is it okay to tell me this?”

“I don’t think it really matters.”

Shamir shrugged his shoulders at my question.

“Because I don’t really like Mustafa Barça.”

I didn’t know who it was, but it seemed like someone named Barça was leading this war.

Shamir, who saw me and Laurent with blank expressions, chuckled and picked up a barrel from the corner.

“I was curious about it earlier, what is it?”

“It’s a hookah.”

Shamir snapped his fingers and smoke began to billow from the jar. He put the bowl in his mouth and inhaled the smoke.

“Whew… Anyway, if I go and die or get injured, I think I’ll be a little sad.”

“Well, nothing will happen.”

I drank the rest of my coffee and got up.

“I’ll just go.”

“I look forward to seeing you again next time.”

Shamir waved at me with a listless expression, perhaps because of the cigarette smoke.

[May God’s grace be with you.]

Shamir said something to me in Turkic language and then just smoked a hookah without saying anything.

“Let’s go.”

Laurent and I left Shamir and left the coffee shop.

“Pia seemed very sad. Should I go see her?”

“I don’t know.”

“What should I do if you are the party and don’t know?”

“But don’t Raju and Youngjae need time alone to think?”

“I see…”

I let my shoulders slump and sighed.

“Then would you like to go home?”

I shook my head.

“Let’s gather the guys and go have a drink.”

Maybe it was because I had work to do with Pia and drank coffee, but I wasn’t really sleepy.

“Shamir gave you this document?”

Aramis put down his drink and looked closely at the document Shamir gave him.

“The only Turkic language I know is greetings.”

At those words, Lotos patted my head and ruffled my hair.

“I heard your hair is disheveled.”

I slapped Lotus on the back of his hand.

“I know how to say hello in Turkic, so please try saying hello.”

“Shalam.”

“Shalam? Is that the end?”

“That’s all I know, so what can I do?”

“Ah, that’s boring.”

Lotos laughed and drank.

“You don’t even know such simple things.”

“People in that neighborhood don’t drink anyway, so what’s the point of talking to them?”

“If I light Lotus on fire, I think it will burn really well.”

“What kind of nonsense is that?”

“Because the body is made of alcohol, it seems like it could easily catch fire.”

“Hahaha!!!”

Lotos burst into laughter and hit his knee.

“Unfortunately, it didn’t burn down.”

“Tsk.”

At Lotos’ words, I clicked my tongue and turned my head to Aramis.

“Did you find out anything?”

“Well… it seemed to be a different language, not Turkic language.”

“Then you don’t know…”

“Try to ask someone else later… No.”

Aramis shook his head before speaking.

“Shamir told you to just keep it with you, right? Just keep it with you.”

“Didn’t you mean to ask someone else to translate it?”

“When I think about it, I think it would be worse if someone else finds out about this document.”

“Really? Then there is nothing we can do.”

It was a situation that Shamir could have gotten into trouble.

“That’s it, let’s have a drink.”

Lotos poured a drink into my glass.

“Anyway, I feel like my body is shaking when I hear that they are really going to war.”

“Why? Because I’m scared?”

“Some things are like that, some are exciting, and it’s very complicated.”

“Me too.”

Lotos chuckled, as if he was dumbfounded by what he said.

“Isn’t it contradictory to say that the battlefield is scary after capturing monsters?”

“Isn’t that true of you?”

“Me? I still feel like pissing myself when I think about a shell passing by my head.”

“And?”

“When I think about fighting an enemy, my heart beats faster.”

“Yes, this is something you can’t do anything about. Raise your glass.”

We raised our glasses.

“I hope you can survive this war!”

We drank in one go.

It seemed like nothing much had happened, but after going to the cathedral a few times, the volunteer army had already gathered all the capacity and the troops had gathered.

It was planned to depart from Alzac, join the Aland Army and head to Vienna.

“Anyway, it’s truly spectacular…”

We looked at the volunteers gathered in Alzac.

Each soldier was carrying a musket.

“Until we fought, there were a lot of pike…”

Lotos grumbled when he saw the volunteers’ weapons.

I understood his feelings.

I bought this gun with the money I earned while holding a pike and toiling as a lowly soldier for 8 years, but they are holding guns from the beginning.

“It would be really nice to have something like that in my day.”

Lotos pretended to fire a gun.

“Let’s check before everyone leaves.”

I turned the jewel on the ring on my left ring finger.

Then everyone turned the jewels on the ring.

“Ah, can you hear me?”

[Ah, can you hear me?]

My voice came from the ring.

“Oh… your voice really comes out.”

The performance of the magic tool given as a gift by the Duke of Buckingham was considerable.

“I think it will definitely be more convenient to have something like this.”

“I agree.”

Aramis nodded at my words.

“How about this coat? Isn’t this the first time in my life I’ve seen a coat that blocks bullets?”

Lotos touched the dark blue cord.

“ said it was quite difficult to sew these clothes. It was so tough that it was struck with a hole filled with aura.”

“The person who made the clothes must have had quite a hard time.”

“But is there this much hair around my neck?”

I pursed my lips and looked at mine and the three other people.

While everyone else’s coat was neatly cut, only my coat had some hair left on it.

“I think it was probably made for everyday use after hearing that women wore it.”

“Ha, it would be absurd if that really happened.”

“What about it? Wouldn’t it block everything, whether it’s a bullet or an arrow?”

Closer closer

A cavalryman approached us.

“Viscount Ajaccio is looking for all four of you.”

“Really? Tell them I’ll be there soon.”

“Yes, I understand.”

As soon as the cavalry left, Lotos was impressed.

“Huh… This Lotus will live long and see. I was treated well by a cavalryman with a high reputation.”

“Isn’t he an officer anyway? An officer.”

Aramis hit one of the horns of Lotus’s bicorne with his hand.

“Ugh, don’t hit my hat carelessly. It’s been my lifelong wish to use this, and I’m so touched that I actually got to use it…”

“I think it’s all thanks to having good friends.”

Lotos grinned at my words.

“Am, by the way, I made a really good friend.”

“Stop talking nonsense and go quickly.”

We headed to the tent where Viscount Ajaccio was.

“Is Viscount Ajaccio there?”

“You came.”

As soon as we entered the tent, Viscount Ajaccio stood up.

“I heard you were looking for us.”

“That’s right, this is the person you sent from the King faction, right?”

“Well, that’s how it happened.”

I shrugged my shoulders in response to Viscount Ajaccio’s question.

“It’s nice to see you again.”

Viscount Achishio smiled brightly and held out his hand to me.

“Nice to meet you.”

“Are you using your watch well?”

“Ah… about that.”

I put my hand inside my clothes and took out the watch that was stuck between my cleavage.

“I am using it well.”

“Hehe…”

Viscount Ajaccio smiled kindly and looked at the watch sticking out of my cleavage.
