Ballistic Revenge 2
Ah~
Sabine-chan beca the chief strategist.
Well, shes certainly a tough one
For now, lets read the direct appeal letter carefully and consider it.
I just received it, checked the address and sender, and only skimd the contents once.
Its a wooden plank, and the letters are ssy, so I couldnt read it very well (Mitsuha)
The writer was probably not accustod to writing on wooden planks, and there was also the problem of writing tools.
I can read and write well the scriptures of this country, but this is sothing else.
Its just like being able to read and write Japanese is a different matter than being able to read corrugated characters, hastily written with a brush.
Well, I guess if I talk to the person who wrote this letter, I may be able to read and write it
But why did they go to the trouble of sending it in a wooden plank? Even in the countryside, theres paper available, isnt there? Well, it may not be so cheap, but its not so expensive that you cant afford it
It would be difficult to write on a wooden letter, and it would be bulky to deliver, so it would be rather expensive (Mitsuha)
When I ask that question
Ah, thats because the thod of direct appeal was decided a long ti ago, and the rule that submissions must be made in wooden planks is still valid.
Direct appeals are so distasteful to the nobility that no one thinks of revising the rules to make them more convenient. Its the higher-ups who decide such things.
And the populace is also afraid that it might be revised so that it will be more difficult to appeal directly, so they dont dare voice it. (Sabine)
I see (Mitsuha)
We all have our reasons for things.
I understand it quite well
So, can you read these broken characters? (Mitsuha)
Sure. They make learn how to read anything, even a petition written by a commoner who cant read or write well. (Sabine)
Sasu-sabi!
Err, wait?
If Sabine-chan can read this handwriting, I can acquire the ability to read and write while talking to Sabine-chan, so shouldnt I be able to read it too?
Why cant I read this then?
After all, was it because reading and writing and the ability to read broken characters are two different things?
Damn, what a pain
******
I did it! (Sabine)
Oh, Sabine-chan successfully deciphered the wooden plank!
As expected, its a direct appeal, a petition.
No, I an, since it was written on a wooden plank, it only ans one thing, but
And the contents are; complaints about the high tax rate by the evil magistrate, the summons of good-looking young girls, and the purge of those who dare oppose. Well, thats the three main points of this direct appeal. (Sabine)
Uwa~a, I knew it (Mitsuha)
And of course, this is a direct appeal to be sent to the lord of ones own domain. The fact that it ca to you, Oneesama, ans (Sabine)
ans what? (Mitsuha)
It ans sobody put in so extra wisdom, I guess.
Since its not for the Viscount Yamano, but the divine ssenger, Hi Miko of Thunder, then theres a high probability that the appeal will be received, and the mont you know about this, you wont be able to ignore it. (Sabine)
Ah~
Certainly, its just like what Sabine-chan said when she first saw this letter.
They got
******
So, what are you going to do, Oneesama? (Sabine)
Sabine-chan asked about that but
Regarding whether Ill do it or not If I receive sothing like this and ignore it, it will affect my reputation as the Divine ssenger, Hi Miko of Thunder, not to ntion as the head of the Viscount family
Lets keep it a secret (Mitsuha)
Yeah, thats the thing, if theres no movent from you, Oneesama, rumors like Hi Miko-sama seems to have received a letter of appeal might circulate out of nowhere (Sabine)
And in that case, the investigation advantage of the other side does not know that I have received a direct appeal and is acting on it, will be lost.
Furthermore, the whole country will be made to realize, Oh, I can send a direct appeal to Hi Miko-sama! And thus, you will be flooded with wooden planks
You will be used as a stepping stone! (Sabine)
Indeed. Its truly the definition of they got
But perhaps the person who made the direct appeal and the person who added so ideas are not bad people.
This was just the most reliable ans they could take.
They were prepared to lay down their life for everyone else, they wanted to choose a thod with as much certainty as possible.
Its quite obvious, isnt it?
And for , who might receive many direct appeals in the future, this is just one among many, but for them, this is one big gamble to save their friends
So, Sabine-chan, what is your suggestion as the chief strategist? (Mitsuha)
Right, for the ti being, keep it a secret from anyone other than those you can absolutely trust so that it wont be spread that they made a direct appeal to you, Oneesama.
Next, getting this matter out of the way quickly.
And after its done, spread information to both the side that made the direct appeal and the side that was being sued, only this ti, the next ti you make a direct appeal, Ill just destroy the territory because its too troubleso, to prevent it from happening again. (Sabine)
Hmmm, I guess thats the only way
However, Sabine-chan, as our typical strategist, is both cute and devious!
Little cute black strategist, you say? Shut up!
******
This is Esnor County
And so, here we are a few days later.
In the territory where the sender of that direct appeal, or rather the complainant Anyway, the one who asked for help, is in this territory.
You didnt have to be in such a hurry, you know (Sabine)
And Sabine-chan is not in a very good mood.
No, I didnt an to bring you, not at all!
But I couldnt turn her down when she told what I would do without my strategist, and Oneesama, Im worried about what you would do if youre alone
As expected, I cant bring Colette-chan to this operation that requires stomach fortitude.
So, Im keeping it a secret from Colette-chan.
Of course, the king as well
If I told them that, they would definitely stop !
Sabine-chan was expecting to travel with in the camper, Big Lorry, but since we moved in a blink of an eye via teleportation, she was in a bad mood.
Ive scanned this continent and the new continent by flying over them with the help of a certain countrys air force and navy aircraft quite a bit, so I can get to almost any location imdiately.
Oh, I also flew to various other continents.
Its not like Ive been flying around the world the whole ti.
Yeah, Around the World in 8 Hours.
Im sorry,Verne-sensei!
I realized that even if I had never been there, I could teleport as long as the location could be seen from the altitude and that if I was over nothing, I could teleport based on information such as how many degrees and miles from where I was just now, rather than the landmark of the destination itself.
Well, it takes a few extra seconds to specify the location compared to using coordinates and aerial view. Besides, there are various troubleso things on the ground.
Things like appearing in private houses, crowded places, mountains and lakes, and so on
Also, spare the thought of getting stuck in a stone
No, of course, theres a safety chanism to avoid that, in such cases, the transition will be perford continuously until I arrive at the second-best candidate or back at the starting point
The reason why its not imdiately to the starting point is that if Im transferring to avoid a crisis, I may die as soon as I return to where Im escaping from.
Over the past few days, Ive done a lot of research on Count Esnors territory.
There are a lot of things going on about the territory and the Counts family
The governing side didnt know that a direct letter of appeal was sent to .
And those who are appealing to would have thought that I would co much later, considering the distance from here to the royal capital.
So we can operate without being known to both parties.
And of course, Sabine-chan and I are dressed as normal commoners. Im also wearing a blonde wig and colored contacts.
Alright, lets get going!
