Chapter 115: “The collaborators were sacrificed”
Being within a neighboring country, the city named Hugelcup was quite far away. Even flying at a moderate speed to match Blanc, the trip there took about a full day. It felt somewhat similar to the speed of that pigeon caught in Hiers the other day.
This implies that even if you were to send a pigeon, it would take a whole day, exceeding the distance usable by messenger pigeons. In that case, it’s reasonable to assume that there aren’t many countries sending pigeons to neighboring nations.
“Hmm. But what if there are people who can [Control] pigeons? It wouldn’t be a problem, you can just release them again even if they die. It might be a bit risky, but they could be made to do it to some extent.”
“Well… I can’t say it’s impossible.”
According to Deas, [Control] imposes a burden on the body. If that’s true, one should be cautious about the number of familiars. Deciding to make a pigeon one of them is quite a courageous decision.
However, when the fate of a city or a nation is at stake, it wouldn’t be surprising if someone took such bold actions.
“Blanc, you’re amazing…”
“Ehh, hehehe~”
Blanc often points out things that I might overlook when I consider them alone. Even on social media, she tends to focus on threads that others might deliberately avoid. However, it has proven helpful thus far.
