| 5 | Seth: "First of all, as you might have guessed, I was the one who burned down the warehouse." | 999 | 0 | 2614 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 6 | ...As expected, Seth admitted it. | 999 | 0 | 2614 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 7 | Seth knew that I had seen his misdeeds at the warehouse. | 999 | 0 | 2614 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 8 | Since I was certain of it, I wasn't surprised, and Seth remained calm as well. | 999 | 0 | 2614 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||

| 10 | Judging from the incident earlier at the station, the warehouse arson seems to be related to the territorial army. | 999 | 0 | 2614 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 11 | It turns out it wasn't just about inflating market prices. | 999 | 0 | 2614 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 12 | It<EFBFBD>fs a relief that it wasn<73>ft purely for money... but of course, that<61>fs not the case. If the territorial army is involved, no matter the reason, it<69>fs bound to be something terrible. | 999 | 0 | 2614 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 13 | Seth: "It was to crush the Marquis' rebellion against the kingdom." | 999 | 0 | 2614 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 14 | "A rebellion against the kingdom?" | 999 | 0 | 2615 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 15 | As expected, it was something utterly outrageous. I couldn<64>ft help but ask again. | 999 | 0 | 2615 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 16 | Seth: "The Marquis must have been plotting independence from the kingdom for some time. In that sense, the deployment of the Eastern Border Guard Regiment was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 17 | Indeed, the Eastern Border Guard Regiment also served as the kingdom's 'insurance' within the Marquis' territory. | 1 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 18 | Seth: "If the Eastern Mountains are blocked off, the kingdom can't intervene." | 1 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 19 | What Seth was referring to was the strategic void created by the deployment of the Eastern Border Guard Regiment. If there are no enemies within the territory, they only need to defend the Eastern Mountains. | 2 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 20 | Seth: "The Marquis planned to use the territorial army gathered for the military parade to blockade the Eastern Mountains." | 2 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 21 | The Eastern Mountains are a natural stronghold, with only a few passable routes. | 3 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 22 | If the territorial army were to block the mountain roads, the kingdom's army wouldn<64>ft be able to return easily. | 3 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 23 | ...What a situation. | 3 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 24 | "Were anti-kingdom forces also involved in this?" | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 25 | Seth: "No, that was a fabrication by the Marquis to refuse the kingdom's dispatch request." | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 26 | ! | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 27 | The territorial army's crackdown on anti-kingdom forces had shown no results. The noticeable activities like distributing flyers made sense under that explanation. | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 28 | No way... | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 29 | "The food stockpiled by the Frontier Trading Company was for that plan, wasn't it?" | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 30 | Seth: "Yes. That was the weak point of the plan." | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 31 | ... | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 32 | I was beginning to understand why Seth had confided in me. | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 33 | I am a kingdom official at the commodities exchange. Seth's position as the "head of the trading company" was a facade; in reality, he was an operative for the kingdom. | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 34 | If it was to prevent a rebellion, then drastic measures were unavoidable, and his approach to me must have been kingdom-related. | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 35 | ... | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 36 | However, I couldn't just accept Seth's words at face value. | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 37 | After all, if the goal was to crush the rebellion, there was no need to wait for the Marquis to act. | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 38 | If the movement of the Eastern Border Guard Regiment would provoke the Marquis' uprising, simply canceling it would suffice. And if treason was certain, reporting it to the kingdom should have been the first step. | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 39 | There was no reason to resort to extreme measures like burning down warehouses while avoiding peaceful solutions. | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 40 | This made it seem as though they were waiting for the Marquis to explode. | 999 | 0 | 2616 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 41 | Seth: "It would be problematic if the Marquis declared independence, but it would also be troublesome if he were to be deposed." | 999 | 0 | 2617 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 42 | ? | 999 | 0 | 2617 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 43 | Seth: "It seems there's a misunderstanding. I am not an agent of the kingdom." | 999 | 0 | 2617 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 44 | ??? | 999 | 0 | 2617 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 45 | If you're not with the kingdom, then who are you? | 999 | 0 | 2617 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ||
