But if the situation is as Anna and others imagined, the possibility of Xion giving an answer right away is very low.
Maybe they will keep putting off answering.
"That might be an option."
Akid was calm about Anna's concerns.
"Indeed, Itar has no clear stance on whether to kill or not. However, the human army will not suffer losses because of this."
Although Theon used no weapons against the terrorists, he was able to neutralize them through the attack of the magical defense wall.
Moreover, the combat purpose of the human military is always to "annihilate terrorists" rather than "annihilate terrorists."
In this sense, Theon did not disobey orders.
Of course, there must be some people who dislike Xion's half-hearted attitude, but even if there is no actual harm, they cannot take it seriously.
"We received an order to head toward Asia the next day after the ceremony. If we have a few more confrontations with terrorists, we will lose the opportunity to fight terrorists within a period of time."
"How many more times will it be OK?"
"Well, fortunately, we achieved considerable results in the crusade."
As long as you're careful not to do actual harm, it won't be difficult to silence those who use results to date as a shield.
In Ajid's view, rather than rashly choosing one of them to stimulate him, it is better to maintain the status quo and slowly ignore it. This is also an option.
"Okay, do you want to tell Xion this?"
"Ah, please. That guy is very decisive in doing things. If he is suddenly let go tomorrow, he will be in trouble."
"It seems so, it's so scary."
For the time being, regarding matters related to Xion, the future policy has been decided without incident, but there is still something that must be left.
Although the date has changed, there is no way to delay it.
"Recently, this kind of thing has happened to too many people, right?"
"Well, we have also confirmed with the local troops, and they seem to think it is abnormal."
It happened five times in the past three days. And it happens around the big city where the "Mist" is parked.
Although the Yadong region is also an area where invaders occur more often, regardless of the number of occurrences, it gives the impression that the areas where they occur are relatively concentrated.
If Anna and others just passing by feel this way, they may be overthinking, but the local troops who have been stationed here for several years have sensed something abnormal, so they should not easily think that they are overthinking.
"Speaking of which, the fact that there are so many occurrences in this area is contradictory to what I heard Theon say before."
Sheon said that in the ruins and lands related to religion and ancient civilization, there are defense mechanisms prepared by people other than humans in ancient times, so intruders cannot get close.
However, religion is prevalent in the East Asia region. Even in modern times, many people believe in it, leaving many holy places and relics.
According to Theon, it should be difficult for invaders to appear, but the actual situation is that the number of occurrences is second only to North America. This bothered Anna.
If it was Aki, he should have noticed the contradiction like that. Although she thought so, Xiaojing's eyes widened in surprise when she was face to face.
"Huh? Didn't you notice?"
"Ah, no, sorry, that's not the case."
Ajit, who showed a subtle reaction, said "Wait a moment" and just walked to his room next to the captain's room, and immediately came back with the folded paper.
"Actually, I heard Istar talk about this before."
"heard……"
In front of Anna who was at a loss, she spread out the paper on the table. It seemed to be a printed map of the world, with handwriting everywhere.
“Is this writing about the ease of that kind of luck?”
It is not difficult to predict what this map will look like if you take into account records such as "almost no defense" in North America and "multiple barriers of witches" in Britain.
Aki also nodded silently to such a question.
“I asked about it right after what happened at Amazon and heard a lot of interesting stories.”
"Oh...then, where is Yadong?"
"... Istar said, 'It's so dirty.'"
Anna tilted her head at this vague statement. Aki probably didn't expect what he just said to be conveyed to the other party, so he immediately continued to explain.
"As a premise, it is said that luck has a deep connection with 'filth'."
"Filthy... I remember you saying that when you saw the darkness in the Amazon."
Suddenly darkness fell from the sky in the Amazon.
Anna and the others didn't know anything except that it was an energy that could emit a strong Anne reaction, but Theon should call it filth.
"That's the magic that gave birth to Anne's kindness."
"That's why I made the big dive so great."
"Well, it must be something like nutrition for them... Moreover, the concentration of filth in the Yadong region is very strong."
It could be seen from Ajid's serious expression that he was not joking.
And if the filth is really strong, it is understandable that there will be many intruders. For them, it should be a good place to eat.
However, if it is true that the pollution is high, the question of "why" will arise.
"You mean there is something capable of producing such filth in Yadong?"
"No, that's not the case. Istar said that filth comes from living things."
"That means...he's a human?!"
Anna gritted her teeth and explained, and finally got the answer. She couldn't help raising her voice and leaning forward.
In order to calm Anna down, Ajit stopped her movements with his hands.
"It's not just humans, but animals and trees also emit it. If I want to use an analogy, it's things like carbon dioxide."
Just like living things inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, as long as living organisms exist, they will emit a small amount of filth.
"This in itself is a very small amount and will not interfere with Anne's luck. However, Istar said that if the negative emotions become strong, this will not be the case."
"negative emotion……"
"Anger, sadness, hatred, despair...the list goes on endlessly. The stronger these emotions are, the more filth they will produce. Moreover, in the Yadong region, a lot of filth has been produced for a long time."
"...Is it because of the war?"
This place was the scene of many wars during the Old Calendar period.
By the Gregorian calendar, the wars between countries had subsided, but people who did not take it seriously because of their past grudges became terrorists, and the wars between humans continue to this day.
The anger and hatred towards the enemy, the sadness and despair of losing family members, are still generated today.
"Because the war and civil war have not ended, filth has arisen, and the ghosts drawn by the filth gather here?"
"Yes, even the power of protection left in the holy land and ruins cannot withstand it."
"...It's a nasty thing."
The sacred places and relics believed and loved by the people were the very sacred lands that promised peace to the people but lost its bounty due to human folly.
Hearing this fact, Anna's chest ached.
"If that's the case, are they appearing more often because terrorists are becoming more active?"
If pollution leads to the accumulation of bad luck, it can also be considered to be caused by the uneasiness of people caused by the activities of terrorists.
As the largest metropolis in East Asia, due to its large population, it can be assumed that there is also a lot of filth happening.
If you think about it this way, you can explain the increase and concentration of occurrences.
However, Aki shook her head slightly at Anna's thoughts.
"I asked Istar last night, and it doesn't seem to be the case."
"Why?"
"This level of insecurity is not going to bring good luck."
Although the overall situation in the East Asia region is unstable, this big city has benefited from the existence of human military bases and has not suffered any disasters. It is also the most prosperous economy in the East Asia region.
Compared with peaceful countries, people's uneasiness is certainly stronger, but in the land of Yadong, it can be said to be the country with the healthiest life.
"Although the population is large, everyone's negative emotions are not great. Istar said that there are many people who are more full of negative emotions than this city."
