[Lamacus]

Oh? Suad! Miriam and Maram are here too.

[Kun]

What's going on, everyone? If it's about the weapons, I've already said everything before.

[Miriam]

Is there something else that needs to be said besides that?

[Yopi]

Hey~ that's scary~ Why all of a sudden? Bringing in strangers too. Is there something to be afraid of?

[Maram]

What nonsense is this? I'm more afraid of you guys! How can you attack the upper ranks?

Oh, that? You don't have to praise me.

Really~Ah?

[Suad]

We came to hear the reason why you attacked the innocent upper ranks.

What's this about? You've all gathered here over something trivial?

Something trivial? Because of what you've done, we're being branded as rebels. You've given them an excuse to attack us!

If they attack us, we'll just counterattack. What's there to worry about? We have weapons now too, you know?

Do you know who we robbed? If you knew, you'd thank us. It wasn't an innocent upper rank, you know?

Do you know what it's called when you attack and rob the upper ranks regardless of innocence? It's called robbery.

No, this is too much. Robbery? We targeted Ahmad's upper ranks.

If it's Ahmad...

Isn't it Suad's?

Yeah! They treated us like trash and even ignored their own sons!

They were sucking people like us dry!

Isn't it a good thing that we sought revenge on Suad and secured the necessary supplies?

Exactly!! You suffered a lot because of your father. You came here because of him.

Simply because you're indigenous, he not only refused to acknowledge you as a capable son but also subjected you to abuse. In fact, he probably never even acknowledged you as his son.

Is there anyone here who doesn't know Suad's story??

You always imagined it in your heart, right? You didn't deserve such treatment. You wanted revenge against your stepfather.

Say something, Suad.

...Sigh... Alright, I understand... Just... Let's be careful next time. I understand why you did what you did, but we could end up in even bigger trouble...

Suad? Is that the end of it?

I may not know much about this kind of thing, but from my limited perspective, won't they continue like this in the future? Shouldn't we arm ourselves just in case?

Given the shortage of supplies in the village, that's true. It's becoming increasingly difficult for trade.

And as I mentioned before, being armed is necessary. We'll need to find new sources while keeping what we've already acquired. That's why I wanted to discuss it with you all

Suad? Tell us. Are you completely unaware of this decision? Can you honestly say you have no involvement in this matter?

Wait, wait. I need some time to gather my thoughts.

- Wait a minute !! -

- Currently you're carrying -

- too many items with you. -

- Please try again -

- after you loose some weight. -

No! But you know, when I think about it, what did we do wrong? Why are they trying to stop us?

We're not trying to take everything for ourselves, we just want everyone to live well.

Right? That's what I think too. Maybe if we work harder and more actively, they'll change their minds?

No, we can't. Of course not. Acting recklessly without thinking about the future, is that what adults do?

Suad, please speak up.

[Citizen]

Everyone's here. You mentioned an attack on the upper ranks? What's going on?

Well done. Sometimes you just have to stir things up. Are we supposed to be powerless and do nothing? They've been looking down on us, and it's time to stop being ignored.

But now Suad is saying we shouldn't do it.

Why? Why is he saying not to do it?

Well, he's saying our actions could put us in more danger, but I'm too confused to understand what he's talking about

Are they going to chase us out of Rachel just because we raided the upper ranks? They're going to attack us?

I see. Our position has become extremely unfavorable. There haven't been any major moves yet, but public opinion is not in our favor.

Isn't this the time when we should raise our voices even more?

Let's show them what we're made of!!! Let's raise our voices!!

Just calm down for a moment.

Suad! How much longer do we have to live like this? I feel so unfairly treated, I can't take it anymore!

Suad, you're being too cautious. We'll go and do it ourselves. Just like the ones who raided the upper ranks. Nothing will happen.

Fortunately, we have an adventurer here. What do you think? You must have seen a lot traveling around, right?

The atmosphere is getting tense...

People seem to be breaking free from Suad's control, and if it continues like this...

Bang! Help! Somebody save me!

Yeah. Let's do it. Protest. We can't wait forever.

What? Like this? Right now? Without any preparation?

It's not like we haven't prepared at all. We've been gradually moving through Rachel, hiding, and when the time is right, we can join from the temple.

Tonight after sunset seems like a good time. The guards will be changing shifts, so the security will be lax.

Great!!! I'll gather the people!!

Maran, you stay here and prepare for any potential situations.

Got it.

And you guys, leave all those weapons behind.

Oh, why!! We need to protect ourselves too!!

We're not going there to incite armed conflict. If by chance something unfortunate happens while we're carrying weapons, we'll truly be branded as rebels.

Ah, alright! Anyway, Suad seems to be worried a lot.

Why worry about something that hasn't even happened yet?

Alright, now that it's settled, let's hurry. Let's meet at [in front of the temple]

What are you doing? We agreed to meet at [in front of the temple].
