“Adlet? Rolonia? What are you doing?” asked Dozzu. Seeing that Adlet wasn’t heading out to attack, it had returned. Rolonia showed Dozzu the message written in scars on the corpse’s left arm. Dozzu’s eyes widened in shock. “What on earth is this?”

“I’ll tell you what it means, Dozzu,” explained Rolonia. “Someone among the Dead Host is alive, and they’re asking for help.”

“Frankly speaking, I find this unbelievable. There’s no way one of the Dead Host could be alive in that state, much less write anything…”

Adlet felt the same way. This particular corpse looked very clearly dead. To him, the power of the parasites appeared to be the only thing forcing them into motion.

“And I just made sure of it by tasting the blood of that last one. They were in horrible, horrible shape, but…they were just barely…alive.”

“Wait, please, Rolonia,” said Dozzu. “We can’t bring this operation to a halt now. We’ve already revealed our position to Tgurneu. If we don’t reach the Temple of Fate as soon as possible, we’ll end up surrounded, and all of us will die.”

“I-I know that. But…” Rolonia protested desperately. “Addy, I think…I really have to… I have to search for a way to save these people! Let’s find out about the Black Barrenbloom, and save the Dead Host, too!”

“That’s not possible,” objected Dozzu.

“P-please, Dozzu. I’ll do my very best. I swear I won’t cause trouble for you. I’ll show you that I can save the people of the Dead Host, too. So please, tell me how I could do it!”

Adlet stared at that message for a long time. Were they really alive? Even after being turned into living dead, even now that they were fighting him, were the people of his village still alive? Suddenly, nausea welled up inside him. Just imagining the living hell of consciousness while a parasite controlled your body as a weapon made him feel sick. Adlet had thought he’d already conquered his indecision, but it came back with a vengeance. What if there was a way to save the Dead Host? He was about to agree with Rolonia, but suddenly a flash of insight sparked in his mind. “That’s not what’s going on, Rolonia.”

“Huh?”

“It’s a trap. Tgurneu’s trying to trick us, trying to buy some time by luring us away to save the Dead Host. It wrote this here to confuse us.” Adlet didn’t have any proof, but he figured that was just the sort of thing Tgurneu was liable to do.

“M-maybe, but…maybe it really is—”

“No. Give up on trying to save them! We can’t waste our time! We’re going!”

“Addy!” Rolonia yelled at him. Adlet ran off with Dozzu close behind. Nashetania, waiting impatiently, joined them in the charge at their enemy’s defenses.

Even if the Dead Host was alive, they were beyond salvation. All the Braves could do was kill them quickly to put them out of their misery.
