Глава 10

We understand. If the Sarkaz find out, no one betrays the others.

If you can't take it anymore, that's when I'll make my move.

Lieutenant...?!

Let's wait and see for now.

Nothing over here.

What about over there? There are a few more over there, and behind that elevator too. This damned place has too many hiding spots!

You lot, go take a closer look over there!

Those fighters seem to be looking for someone.

Squads, report your current position.

Positions confirmed.

They don't seem to be after us.;Think we haven't been made yet.

Seems like it.

Doctor, do you still remember the table-top exercise we did with Dr. Kal'tsit before we left?

One possibility is that the Messengers we had active around Londinium and Victoria all failed.

They didn't have time to provide us with the accurate intel, and Theresis was able to see all our moves.

In that case, Theresis's personal guard would be there waiting for us the moment we set foot in Londinium.

But it doesn't look like that's what's happening...

Actually, I thought it'd be a Confessarius.;......;Surely we wouldn't be that incompetent?

I think we've more or less reached the same conclusion.

Theresis doesn't know we're here yet. Otherwise, we would've had a very hard time even making it this far.

If that's true, then these Sarkaz fighters up ahead must be searching for someone else who could potentially come this way...

Huh, Mr. Thomas...?

Amiya, he tried to bolt! I barely managed to stop him!

No, let me go! I can't stay here...

Mr. Thomas, you'd best not run off on your own! That'd be terribly dangerous!

I promised you I'd send an operator to escort you... I'm really sorry, but that's not something we can do right now...

Ouch!

W-Wait, you can't just take our operator's weapon––!

Sorry, b-but, I don't want to die!

What's going on here...?

It's pretty obvious.;He thinks the Sarkaz are after him.

I don't want this either... I was just their driver for six months, that's all!

They took over my candy plant and forced me to ship things for them. I have a family... what am I supposed to do?!

That day I took a tiny peek, just one glance. How could I have known what they were doing with my plant?

They've been chasing me ever since! If they catch me, they're going to kill me for sure!

Why'd you have me do this anyway... I'm going to die, no matter where I run!

I... I can't just sit here and wait to die...

Mr. Thomas!

Balin! Don't chase after him, we can't afford to blow our cover.

Ha... Haha...

I'll just... keep running away from Londinium... I don't even care about Dublinn anymore...

Huh?

Eek––!

You... How could... You're...

It's not up to you to decide whether or not you care about Dublinn.

––Get him.
