Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 228.2
He is now full of confidence in his words and actions, and no longer thinks about small things. Whether that is a good thing or a bad thing will depend on the opinions of those around him.
Licia smiled seductively at him, leaned in close to Amol as if to push him down, and whispered in his ear.
“Then I have something to ask of you, Amol-sama…”

“Woooooo!!”
I gently deflected the dagger the man swung while screaming with my bare hands, and slashed his carotid artery with the tip of the black knife.
“The dog of Cleydale…!”
“I know”
I finished the man who was groaning for the last time, and after checking my surroundings, I also exhaled softly.
We attacked the stronghold of those who seem to be the dark side of Solhoss Kingdom and eliminated them all.
The spies were long-time residents of the area called “Grass”, but they were unable to deceive the dark side’s eyes. The dark side of Cleydale Kingdom has few personnel, but they surpass the dark side of other countries in this type of information warfare.
A few weeks have passed since we destroyed Herman Trading, and since then, we have destroyed several sources of funding for the noble faction. Meanwhile, we have come into contact with the dark side of Cleydale Kingdom, and while receiving information, we are attacking bases of other countries that are difficult for the dark side to reach.
“…Is there anything of note?”
We have received testimony that he is a spy from another country, but it appears that he did not leave any evidence that he was in contact with the noble faction. Still, if we look, we might find something. A contact from the dark side should come when we have finished taking control, but…
Bang!!
I throw a throwing knife at the window behind me, and a figure sways behind the window frame where the knife was stuck. …It is not a member of the dark side in this area. At the very least, he seemed stronger than the Dark Side that had come into contact with me.
Instantly, I switched my consciousness to combat mode and smashed the window frame I was hiding in with a weight-shaped pendulum, and a cloaked figure jumped out from there.
A combat power of about 300. I thought it would be troublesome to let him escape if he was a scout, so I immediately readied my dagger and knife and tried to jump out, but the shadow called out to me.
“Wait, wait, Aria!”
I stopped my hand when I heard the familiar boyish voice.
“…Theo?”
“That’s right! So don’t attack me, you’ll just die!”
Apparently, the Dark Side that had come into contact with me had contacted them, and Theo had come as a liaison from the royal capital.
Theo has already been relieved of his duties as guardian of the viscount’s daughter, the Saint. After discussing it with the Prime Minister and Mikhail, it was decided that Theo was more likely to be psychologically affected than if he were used as a spy.
“It’s been a while. So how is the situation?”
“I almost got killed!? Well, that’s typical of Aria.”
When I responded normally, she got sulky for some reason. Still, Theo confirmed that there were no enemies left around and opened his mouth as if to exhale.
“The situation here is that, first, Aria has destroyed the nobles’ source of funding, so more and more noble families are joining our side. Also, according to Her Highness, she will be finished with “preparations” by the graduation party in two months.”
“…”
So that’s what Elena said…
I thought that the reason she sent the trusted Theo to tell me that was because she wanted to include her own faint “hope” in her words.
