Tibet, that's the best description that I can come up with after seeing this nation for the first time. It's absolutely stunning, with wintery theme all over the place. The people are nice even when they're basically in a deep crisis, and that's actually a bit concerning, since I can spot so many "twins" hanging around together. Concerning because of two things

1) Are they being brainwashed by their fake doppelgangers? Or

2) Are they really in deep trouble? If they aren't, why should we help the resistance group

I mean, you can practically see two sets of identical families, from the grandparents down right to their pets, nearly identical sitting together, having their usual buttercup tea with fatty bread in one of the restaurant, all harmoniously while the light snow keep falling. If I am being honest, I am kinda jealous seeing that sight, and I just don't want to disturb them

((Are they really in trouble??)) [Lara, Nara]

((Beats us)) [Kara, Mara]

(We should probably listen to the resistance first) [Aries]

(That would be for the better) [Zerolith]

Our very twins, Aries and Zerolith are having the same doubts as mine. I'm sure the other are also thinking of the same thing, which prompts me to

"I'll explain what truly happened once we are there" [Resistance leader]

"For now, trust us" [Long hair girl]

"If you said so, but I'm only trusting my fellow siblings for now, not the resistance group they're trying to help" [Ash]

"Fair enough" [Resistance leader]

The resistance group might be lying and tricking my fellow siblings from different orphanages, but seeing as how those siblings of mine carry themselves out, even went as far as settings their own version of communication stones using the devil magic core, I doubt they will be foolish enough to get themselves tricked by the resistance group

"What is th..." [Charlotte]

"Charlotte!" [Dwarf trader]

One of the siblings make a "SHH!!!" sign and quickly prompt Charlotte not to point her finger at a certain area behind the alley. Naturally, our eyes glued into it. None of us turn our head, but simply gaze upon the alley that Charlotte's pointed out, and

(Just...) [Diana]

(Goddess...) [Muse]

(We should probably increase our pace) [Bunny beastman]

(Good idea miss. Everyone, please follow me) [Resistance leader]

(Right!) [All]

Gosh, if only I can use the camper van golem or the bus golem inside this country, than we can all stare at that thing for as long as we wanted to, but given how we are basically infiltrating this nation, we couldn't do that.

Once we are inside a certain inn, and the owner recognize the resistance leader, all of us take a moment to let out our sigh

"Just... what is that?" [Alaric]

"I can sense multiple of the same souls inside that gooey visceral thing..." [Linda]

""Same here"" [Lara, Nara]

"Same souls? You don't mean..." [Diana]

"I get this feeling, that's what happen when the fake doppelgangers and the real live person mingles with each other for so long... Am I right?" [Ash]

"That's correct" [Resistance leader]

"Then why is there 'something'... No multiple thing that feast upon it?" [Savel]

"Kinda reminds me of how the devils cannibalized each other to get stronger" [Singa]

"You're right... It feels similar in a way" [Elise]

"And the people around here, aren't they acting overly calm... Don't they know what will happen?" [Karon]

Multiple questions are thrown once everyone get a moment to calm themselves.

"Alright, let just give them some time first. No need to bombard them with all the questions" [Rean]

"Rean is right. For now, we can actually just take a moment to rest for a bit" [Sachmis]

"That, I can agree" [Farhah]

"Ash, can you bring out those people?" [Alaric]

"And I'll prepare a space magic for you and Qis to interrogate them" [Linda]

"That will be appreciated" [Qis]

"Alright, but both of you should also rest first" [Ash]

Since we were ambushed earlier, I kept some of our ambusher alive just for the sole purpose of getting some valuable information from them. Since this isn't Estel and we are here not on any official capacity, I just store them inside my item box magic. To my surprise, they actually survive (after I defrost them and getting them out from my item box magic). I mean, I do know since time inside will be stop and it isn't the best place to enter for a long period of time, living organism won't likely survive, which is why I Savel, Charlotte and I basically freeze them first and put them in a state of suspended animation with help from Lara and Nara.

"Well, before they start screaming..." [Rean]

"Yeah..." [Alaric]

Alaric and Rean quickly knock them out flat, and from waking up from suspended animation they straight away get knock out. Poor fellow. The other then stuff their mouth and put some clothes to cover their eyes

"Here, have some tea first" [Resistance member]

"This is the butter tea that we saw earlier, am I right" [Kara]

"That's correct. It's our local speciality here" [Resistance member]

"Then can we have the fatty bread as well? It looks like it will blend well with the tea" [Singa]

"Already on it" [Resistance leader]

"Here you go" [Inn owner]

"Thank you. I guess we should all eat first before we proceed with any discussion" [Diana]

"Diana's right. Let just sit back and relax" [Ash]

With Diana's suggestions, we quickly take a seat and eat. Not trying to get lovely, but Diana's actually try to feed me with her two hand, trying to copy the two husband and wife in front of us

"My my... How daring of you, your highness" [Muse]

"Not as daring as you" [Diana]

"Oh please, I just started doing this with Rean" [Muse]

"Somehow, I doubt that" [Charlotte]

"Hey" [Rean]

"Haha. You know, I'll surely enjoy this situation, if it weren't for the two guards glaring at me with their murderous intents" [Ash]

"What could you possibly mean..." [Alaric]

"We are just her highness guard, we can't possibly interfere with her personal life" [Qis]

(That wasn't convincing...) [Elise]

(Meow...) [Behe]

(Even Behe agree with it) [Kara]

For now, let just fill our stomachs
