"..Nn..Then, I need to start pretty soon"and, I need to fix my language as well.."
Lilus whispers that and used magic. It's an action that will reduce her amount of time remaining in the present world but it's not like she'll really die. She's just temporarily moving over to a different dimension {Other.Plane}. She'll spend a period of time there and then come back. Even she doesn't know how much time will have passed when she returns over here. A few years, a few decades, or over one hundred years.
With a smile that could be considered self-derision on her face she started mumbling about something after using magic.
The magic she's using right now is {Instruction}. It has the condition of the side receiving the orders undergoing a special ceremony first but other than that it's an extremely convenient magic. Of course the caster can freely select the target matching the conditions. It's fine if the target is just one person or even multiple people. This time 10 people were selected as the targets.
"I wonder if this is fine..it would be good if they properly take care of things while I'm gone though..since it's my first time as well..if I say anything too attentive and they might be troubled..Ah, I'm looking forward to what the town will look like when I return..after that is..just in case I guess that's necessary as well.."
How to avoid the regulations, whether there's any loopholes to it, Lilus held her finger to lip for a short period while thinking and used magic another couple of times.
And then, with a slightly satisfied smile on her face she closed her eyes.

Several days later, in the Queen's bedroom of the depths of the palace in Lail Kingdom, leaving just the hole where it's masters legs were rooted the room was empty. Leaving all of the valuable treasures and expensive various types of items in place, the room was left just to quietly wait for the return of it's master.

.
He's taller than the average dark elf at 185 cm and is quite the big man.
"All elders, I have appeared before you as you have requested."
After Zageruforu said that greeting them Webundo called out to him.
"Zageruforu, we were thinking we'd like to have you explain things about the rank 1 warrior class Chizumagurol. Explain to everyone about Chizumagurol. Since we don't want to give you any preconceived notions we'll explain the reason after. First off, we want to hear an explanation with no reservations."
Being ordered be an elder that's in their last year of office, Zageruforu opened his attractive lips.
"Ha...Chizumaguorl is my..Yeah, since I was from the uzuuroboride 97th period so..she's a woman that graduated the education training process 19 periods my junior as a member of the iwaganeeresade 68th period and two years prior was official appointed. If I remember correctly during the education training process she was always at the top. Up until now she's had independent missions twice and cooperative missions three times, escort missions..if I'm remembering correctly she's accomplished them about six times. Among those, one cooperative mission and two escort missions were while she was an apprentice. There was nothing that could be considered a mistake her work...
Also, she's enthusiastic when it comes to training and is never negligent in her training even when off duty. Her normal close combat abilities are reasonably good but due to problems in experience as well, she's still a bit below the average of the rank 1 warrior class. In regards to the crucial assassination techniques she's plenty skilled and already above average. Of course, she still isn't at my level though.
If it's just that much then they can fight them sufficiently! There's that much of a gap between their abilities! That's why they're rank 1!"
There's probably exaggeration included in these remarks. No matter how skilled of a person they are, there's no way they could match up to seven opponents who have received decent combat training. If they give their best then one person and put in some desperate effort you could say it would be a good performance for them to bring two of them down with them. If you think about it with common sense it's normal to think the side with seven people will take no damage.
However, Zageruforu thought (This complete amateur who doesn't even know how strong just one ogre is!), while objecting in retort to the inflammatory words. It was a big failure.
"Ho? Head warrior Zageruforu. If you're going to say that much then how about we prove it? You said that Chizumagurol was of the 68th iwaganeeresade period right. Well then, just as you said she should be able to win against one rank 2 warrior and six rank 3 warriors from the same iwaganeeresade 68th period right? Of course I'm sure it would be difficult to gather them with just members of the iwaganeeresade 68th period. It's fine if you mix in some members from Jorounefiridi 124th period and taranchurarikosa 80th period as well."
Hearing that starting with Zageruforu, the other elders stirred as well.
"Wha!? Do you intend to make dark elves perform a death match with each other over a reason like that!? Are you go crazy!?"
"Something like that, isn't that just uselessly decreasing our countries forces!"
Every chance that can be used should be used.

Year 7444, Month 6, Day 1
Fantodu and Yoretto were giving out instruction to the seven people lined up in front of them.
"..For that reason, you should always remain on guard as you carry out your decisions. Other than those who have this mark tied on them don't let them pass the fourth checkpoint. Capture them alive. However, caravans are different. Also, you must not harm anyone other than dark elves. Starting from this moment of today for the next two month, this is all your orders!"
""Ha""
A sharp reply came back from the seven people.
After dispersing, Yoretto called out for rank 2 warrior, Harugozon of the Jorounefirdi 124th period, who was going to become the commander and talked to them.
"I said that just now but rank 1 warriors are different. The opponent has a considerable level of skill as well. If you don't attack them with the intention to kill you all might end up being killed."
After saying that he patted the shoulder of Harugozon who was young and tense as he stood at attention, then from an unseen angle he grinned with a smile.
(Right now, other than the those escorting caravans there's only two rank 1 warriors outside huh..It's unfortunate but die, No..I guess that's indiscreet..We need to make sure they're at least seriously injured..)
