Chapter 80.3
“Huh? What’s wrong? Didn’t you already know from the beginning that humans are like that?”
“…Huh?”
“Humans lie and sometimes deceive even their own relatives… It’s common sense among elves. We’ve known it for hundreds of years. Even the upper echelons of the elves conduct diplomacy with that in mind. To me, it’s like, ‘What’s the problem now?’ But I understand that your young people find it hard to believe in your own race. After all, your sister was deceived and almost killed.” As she said that, Thunder Sonia sighed and thought of something else. Maybe it was better to end the conversation. Regardless of the facts, Nazar wouldn’t be able to accept them without sorting out his feelings. In the midst of the confusion, there might even be a possibility that his own sister took advantage of him and make him side with her.
Now, it remains to be seen whether we fight these two or not… She wanted to bring together Nazar and the person who seemed to be Liscia. That was the feeling that had brought her here, so for now, she could say that she had achieved her goal. Then, the next goal would be to fight the two in front of her and continue pursuing Poplatica… It seems impossible.
Thunder Sonia came to that conclusion.
“Liscia, I’m glad to see you after so long. It may sound ironic, but I’m glad that you seem to be doing well. Will the next time be on the battlefield? Well, it depends on Gediguz, but if he really resurrects, tell him to prepare the coffin and wait. Next time, I’ll be the one to kill him.”
Thunder Sonia chose to withdraw. Nazar had already lost the will to fight. He was around twenty years old. It would take some time for him to calm down after learning that his sister, whom he thought was dead, was alive, and that she had almost been killed by someone who was practically family, turning her into a traitor to her race.
Now, she couldn’t fight, or it would be futile even if she did. Depending on the situation, there might even be a possibility of becoming Nazar’s enemy. Even if it was Thunder Sonia, breaking through these two, who would probably use delaying tactics, was extremely difficult. If Nazar betrayed her and this turned into a one-against-three situation, it wouldn’t be easy to escape. She had no choice but to give up on Poplatica. It was advisable to withdraw before Nazar reached a conclusion.
“Do you mind stepping back quietly?”
