Chapter 357: Negotiations with Michelle

Now that the fight was over, Veldora went back to cooking the pancakes as if nothing had happened.

Michele looked a bit surprised at being suddenly abandoned, but she was now walking towards Veldora.

He saw that the children looked frightened, and then he opened his mouth as if recalling something.

"I'm sorry about what just happened. We're being spied on, so I should call it trash. But I was so surprised that you ate something that looked delicious. ”

He apologized.

That is the truth.

According to regular reports from informants, the food eaten by the resistance should have been tragic.

He thought it would happen here, but they ate pancakes.

No wonder he was surprised.

"Bahaha! Is that not true? Do you want it too? ”

–Well, eating the same thing would be a good shortcut to get everything sorted out, right? Michelle felt that Veldora was thinking about that when offering some to her.

"Thank you . I'll take it. ”

He received the plate with a slight hesitation.

And then he started eating. A fork and knife seemed to have been taken out of nowhere, and he used it to cut a piece and bring it to his mouth.

The way he eats is like an example of sophistication.

You wouldn't imagine someone like him eating something as mundane as a pancake, yet somehow he looks good doing it.

"- Very delicious . ”

He muttered.

Although not everything was in terms of presentation, it felt very nostalgic to him.

It was not like the processed food he ate in the city. It feels very homemade.

And through eating the pancakes, the feelings of alert the children felt towards Michelle began to fade.

He's human like them.

Michelle noticed this change and smiled.

It sealed the deal for them.

The smile of a beautiful woman is very powerful. Even those who were confident of being killed just a moment ago were softened by that smile.

Everyone was now relieved, as they fully believed that the battle was over.

But then again, there are now some who are beginning to feel anxious in different ways. What is Michelle's goal?

"Uh, um... General ... Michelle? From what you just said, you haven't really come to clean us up after all …? "

Karman asked the first question.

He was called a traitor. He anxiously scratched his head.

Then Michelle looked at him with a confused expression.

It was a childish attitude that did not match that ice-cold beauty.

He smiled in satisfaction and then glanced at Karman.

"Cleaned…?"

And then he thought about it—

"Oh that! Hiragi made a fuss about it. You know how he can be like. I don't think you're a traitor just because you let the resistance escape. Anyway, what's gonna make me? I've been sending them resources all along. ”

—He dropped this bomb as if it were an afterthought.

"What!?"

"Send resources !?"

“Wait-wait-wait! General Michelle !? What do you mean…?"

Michelle looked at them without worry.

“As I said. First of all, if I really wanted you to clean up, I wouldn't have come here myself. Quite the opposite, really. I've come here so you won't be killed. ”

He said all this in a light manner as if it was under his pancakes in terms of importance.

Those who resisted were very surprised by this.

"What's!? But he was the leader of the empire … "

"So ... Who have we been fighting all this time?"

"I don't believe that. Is he trying to trick us? ”

Etc.

No one can trust Michelle. And they don't know how to react.

So Sharma stepped forward as if representing all adults.

“I Sharma, the leader of this department. General Michelle, I have a question, if you don't mind? "

"Not me . Ask whatever you want. ”

Michelle replied casually.

He had no intention of hiding anything at this moment.

Of course, being trusted is a different thing …

"All right then . First question ... Is it true that you have been sending resources to us until now? "

"That's right . I always felt that we should help each other, because we are the same species. But the truth is, this is pretty hard. A city was destroyed through rebellion. It would be amazing to change the minds of those living in the city now. ”

"Wait a minute . Then why did you send us supplies? As the protector of the city, aren't we your enemies !? ”

“You how else do you think like that. However, I think it is very twisted that we should see each other as enemies when our numbers as a species have fallen so low. However, we also cannot accept every refugee. What I can offer now is a place to stay and hide. Also a little food supply. ”

"In other words ... You cannot accept us, but neither will you leave us? Why can't you tell us about it …? Then maybe … "

All these fights will not happen — Sharma will say this, but she is distracted.
