Another Life

Thior Counterattack

The following day, Mauro Visur, king of the Kingdom of Visur, was headquartered in a small mountain northeast of Thior, overlooking Thior.

Originally, this mountain was a Killer Ant's nest, and after Killer Ant abandoned it, it became the home of other monsters, but after the Knights of the Cathedral completed the entrance examination and destroyed the monsters, the entrance hole was beautifully sealed, and the gunpowder was stored inside.

Mauro Visur, the king of the Kingdom of Visur, a high elf who did not know that he was forming a formation on the powder magazine, was frustrated with the state of affairs that could not be tackled from within the military council.

Why! Why can't you drop it with so much power! And what is that weapon? I am the king and high elf of the traditional kingdom of Visur!

The damage done so far also affects the fight ahead. Yes, for the countrymen of the east, letting the blood of the noble elves spill will kill us all!

With that in mind, when I heard gunfire sounding on the battlefield, the argument between the aristocrats who led the army in front of me peaked.

"So! I'm saying we need to build a catapult to attack from outside the range of that magical attack!

"I know that! So where do we get that wood from? The nearby Luche Tree Sea? If you do that, they'll come out and target you where you're dealing with them!

This mountain is bald, and if you send troops to the nearby tree-growing mountain, each one will be destroyed because of the distance. I don't know why they're after the Eastern Union!

"Then tell me what to do! All we have to do is waste more dead!

Saying that, an elf slams the table vigorously.

With new rifles, machine guns, and barbed wires stopping the Alliance's movements, the Alliance's attacks on the Eastern Alliance were destroying mercenary and slave forces, sending its troops to dangerous battlefields, adding to the casualties in vain.

I see with my eyes that Mauro can help me if I understand it or if I can't say anything to the words of the elf who tapped the table.

Amazed at that attitude, Mauro sighs and asks a high-elf wearing glasses next door, staring at the map.

"Let's hear the opinions of our chief of staff, the First Exclusive Brave. Marquis Alto Elbas, what do we do?

To Mauro, who asked the question, Elbas sparkles his eyes and explains the map by opening it to the table.

"This map was drawn to the extent I can see, but look at this. This thiol is well conceived and designed to protect the north and east with a large river that surrounds the town under the castle in a wide and deep moat.

The city stretching south of the fortress looks ordinary at first glance, but it has a five-storey building around the moat that it uses instead of a castle wall, which you might want to consider a city as part of the fortress.

And there is only one bridge to cross the Great River, which must be suppressed and, worst of all, destroyed to make a major detour to the King's Capital of the Kingdom of Cesel.

Hey, I thought the sea was the reason that the Rutai Empire left the superempire twice, but if this city is the standard Rutai Empire city, we'll have to change our minds. "

"So, what does Elbas want to say?

Elbas answered the high-elf man with a sharp glance, with his glasses lifted quick.

"The Marquis of Louis Labelia, who is the head of the Grawis Magic Knights, is the exact same hero. What I'm saying is that the Kingdom of Cesel... no, I shouldn't have done anything to the Eastern Union."

Everyone speaks up against the words of Elbas, but the contents say that it is inconceivable that they, the superior breeds of elves, will lose, or that they, blessed by God, will lose. There is no specific objection to any of them, and Mauro is dazed. Labelia knocks on the table and silences the other nobles to ask questions.

Elbus, tell me why you shouldn't do this.

"Remember? The big merchants who ruled the inner sea coastal city state when they were marching into the Kingdom of Cesel.

"We do not accept the control of the Principality of Nablich, but we do not want a war with the Eastern Union. Because there are tens of thousands of brave men in the Eastern Union"... well, I didn't think it was possible at that time, but apparently it wasn't a lie. "

When everyone looks surprised at Elbas' words, Mauro questions her face red without hiding her angry expression.

"Why do you think so?

"The reason is simple. Before we arrived in the kingdom of Cesel, we experienced a disturbing symptom that prevented us from using or using the space transfer between us and the Labelian heroes.

And when the Eastern Union dropped that huge pile, the space shift was completely unusable. Well, if you touch it with certainty, there's a trap, so you can't touch it, but it's probably the cause.

With that in mind, the Eastern Union is accustomed to fighting brave men. The magic army at the bridge is supposed to be a legendary magic barrier that only the Rutai Empire can use to prevent magic... but Thior's guards aren't using it... "

"... a trap?

"That's the Laberian emperor. I think you're right.

I wonder if we'll be attacked by the surroundings in the space immediately after we break through... this is from the architect... no, it's from the King of the Kingdom of Cesel. "

Elbas's words were saying that no one understood what they meant, but even though Mauro and Labelia had noticed, Elbas started explaining why he was a little relieved.

"Even though we've designed it perfectly so far, this mountain that we're forming is still cutting down trees, as we're always saying to form a formation here and look at Thior.

This is the King of the Kingdom of Cesel telling us to show our defenses and go home. If you're a fool who doesn't understand this message, kill it all. "

That's what Mauro asks Elbus.

"So, what do we do? Are you waiting too long for the rest of the Asian Union to break through?

It was Mauro who asked Elbas a question, but Elbas answered with a smile.

"Originally, I don't think we can help it, but let's eat and break the trap with magic they don't even know."

The nobles groaned at Elbus's suggestion. Mauro then asks with serious eyes.

"It's forbidden to use ancient magic... is there a chance?

"Of course. Sink their city in lava with the ancient magic circle Inferno.

For now, the Eastern Union does not use magic, so they will not know the existence of ancient magic. Originally, it would take 30 days to chant, but the magical elite group, the Knights of the Glauwises, would be able to do so in 10 days.

Afterwards, if you make a recommendation to surrender, we will surrender to you for fear of our ancient magic. "

Mauro looks at Chilari and Labelia and Labelia nods to Elbas's suggestion.

"It's possible. If Your Majesty will allow us, we will sink Thior into the lava and show him."

Mauro was still lost in the words of Labelia who answered with a confident face. Because I thought that if I used ancient magic that was forbidden, there would be rebellion not only from the nobles, but also from the people.

The elf soldier jumped into Mauro's tent, unable to answer the doubt.

"I report! Something smoky is coming at Thior from the east!

In the words of the soldier, all those who were holding the military council jumped out of the tent and turned to the east side of Thior, magically indoctrinating their sight, and there came a steam locomotive towing an armored train behind them.

The armored train had only one gate, but a barrel slightly longer than the tank's barrel on the roof.

Hey, what's that? It's not a horse or a slave, it moves on its own!?

To Mauro's surprise, the steam locomotive stopped in front of a large bridge from the east across the city of Thior.

"Maybe it's like a lid that's stopping us from escaping Thior?

I didn't know it was a train cannon, everyone was convinced by Elbus's words, but Mauro was afraid of something different.

In the Eastern Union, is it possible that something like that runs... maybe more civilized than us?

I won't forgive you... I won't forgive you for that. There can be no better civilization than that of our noble elves.

Mauro squeezed his fist and said, either because he was hurting his pride.

"Elbus, Labelia, prepare for ancient magic. It reminds them of the strength of their elves."

The voice of Mauro was determined, and everyone lowered their heads and followed Mauro's orders to prepare for ancient magic.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

In later life, there are three major fireworks competitions called the World Fireworks Competition. Fushimi fireworks tournament, Rutai Empire. The founding fireworks competition of the Fressian Empire, Nantille, renamed the Empire. And the Thior Volcano Festival in the Kingdom of Cesel.

Initially, it was called the Amelia Festival in honor of the heroes who protected Thior, but because Amelia categorically refused to be embarrassed, it was renamed the Volcano Festival, but the battle was about to begin.

The Allied Corps of Engineers was careful not to make any noise, but had finished planting explosives in the mountains where the King of the Kingdom of Visur was forming, and Amelia was listening to reports in a room in the castle of Thior, like the royal palace.

"I report. Gunpowder has been installed."

Roger that.

"I report. The Allied Corps and the Imperial Army of Rutai have been deployed together."

"Okay."

"I will report to you. The Navy is coming up the Garaine Canal, but there are a lot of trading vessels and I'm a little late, but I think I can make it."

"Never mind, tell him to come without an accident."

"From the Knights of Lavana, Colonel Sanada. If we get here, we'll just win. Let's do it."

"Thank you, tell him I look forward to your Knights."

The Stray Stone is a good warrior, Maeda, who hunted down His Majesty. You understand my mood.

With that in mind, Amelia pressed her trembling arm under the table, and once she meditated and took a deep breath, she opened her eyes and said to the Knights, who could see the color of a little tension.

"In retrospect, in the Empire, our Knights were a guerrilla specialty. However, in the Eastern Union, the superempire did not succeed, the Lutai Empire landed successfully, stabilized Tamba, and quickly dropped the castle in Kanto.... Its visibility will compete for one or two of the Allies.

That's enough, but I can't believe it's the center of this war... Rudy, Light Dragon Cavalry, focus on breaking the enemy formation as usual. "

Ha!

"Josette, your Heavy Dragon Cavalry is particularly aggressive among the Allies. Bite him with a blow."

"Of course, I'll show you the thrust of my dragon cavalry inside and outside."

But Josette also grew up as deputy commander. Now you can manipulate that heavy dragon cavalry freely.

Amelia stood up and ordered Josette to grow, rejoicing inside.

"After blowing up the mountain, add 10 minutes of shelling and start a total attack! Don't delay each other's troops!

Ha!

Josette and the others who stood up with that said, the color of tension disappeared and they were too motivated.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

At that time, in the Alliance, Labelia was heading alone towards the bridge guarded by the Knights of Ravana.

The soldier's face looks tired because he's already lost slaves and mercenaries.

Again, maybe we should have stopped the attack today. Would you advise His Majesty to drink to the soldiers later?

With that in mind, as Labelia was advancing her horse, she could hear Elbus from behind.

"Hey, Labyrinth!

In that word, Labelia looks back as she advances her horse, and she sees Elbas coming on her horse.

And Elbas put a horse next to Labelia, and he was not accustomed unto it, and talked on the horse with a mozo.

"You're usually moving around with space shifts, or you're uncomfortable riding a horse."

"... hmm, that's just you."

"As always, a man with no mouth shut. Well, where are we headed?

In response to Elbus's question, Labelia stared at the nearby dike.

"I'd like to see some Eastern Union weapons."

Was it you, too?

Labelia nodded as she thought in Elbas's words and replied in a small voice.

"Oh, I don't think Eastern Union weapons are magical. Shooting in a row is also a strange thing to say about invisible attacks....."

"Besides, there's something stopped in front of that bridge, right?

Labelia nodded to Elbas.

"Oh, that's definitely not what we know. To be clear, the Eastern Union is so much higher than we think the level of civilization is.

I didn't say it back then, but the Eastern Union seemed to be looking down on us as if we were dealing with wild monkeys.... "

Elbus felt it too. If you had a weapon like that, it wouldn't be strange to attack sooner.

But to think about it, the worst scenario crosses my mind.

"No way... the Eastern Alliance is not going to destroy other Alliance forces and surround us..."

The words of Elbas made Labelia feel as if she had been taken seriously, and when she was silent, she saw the soldiers on the embankment groaning.

"What's the matter?

In Labelia's voice, an elf turns pale and runs with a horse.

"Ya, mountains are heading this way!

"The mountains?

When Elbas said so and looked at Labelia, they made their horses run toward the dike.

When the two arrived at the embankment and the soldiers looked in the direction of pointing their fingers, they did see a large black silhouette. When they magically enhanced their vision, they saw three battleships coming up the river downstream.

"Ah, is that a ship? Even a ship would be too huge....."

I couldn't help but say that Elbus looked so incredible. The kingdom of Visur had the largest galley ship, the Trilime, but the Eastern Union's battleships were several times their size.

Eventually, seeing the appearance of a battleship that seemed clear even without magic, the difference in overwhelming technical power was when they were convinced that the words said earlier by Elbus were true. At the moment that the sound of gogo sounded from below the ground, the mountain where the main battle was placed rose for a moment, and shortly afterwards, they made a roar and collapsed.

In a scene that seems very unrealistic, a roar such as wildfire sounds simultaneously in the ears of the two faces who say it is unbelievable, and an explosion occurs in an allied army.

Screaming and fleeing soldiers mercilessly fell shells from above their heads, and when they noticed, a battleship was coming right in front of them, opening the side door.

In front of the stunned soldiers, when the portal of the fire was blown at once, an explosion occurred around Elbas and Labelia.

"Labelia! This is certainly not magic!

"I know! More than that, Your Majesty! I'll make sure your Majesty's safe and get back on his feet!

"I'm gonna fix this!

He nodded to Elbas that he was worried that Labelia's men were on the main team, and headed for the mountain that had collapsed. Elbas took a deep breath and shouted.

"Prepare to fight! When this explosion is over, the Eastern Union will attack!

According to Elbas, the soldiers were fleeing while rushing to prepare for the battle, and the Knights of Lavana were seen on the bridge unwired.

Everyone heard a scream in Elbus's ear when they thought the Eastern Union was coming in front of them.

"And the Eastern Union has appeared from the west!

"Mi, from the south, it's the Rutai Empire!

You're still going to destroy the siege! This thiol was a trap!

Elbus desperately tried to silence the Allied battalion that came as expected and the soldiers bewildered by the Rutai Empire, and saw Raven's mother standing alone in the middle of the bridge.

Girl?

In the confused eyes of Elbus, Mom slowly walked away by herself, lighting a cigar.

Elbus, who seemed foolish, immediately sent soldiers over the bridge, but as soon as he entered the bridge, he was cut into pieces and turned into mere pieces of flesh.

"Hmm, what... is that magic?

This prevented the enemy soldiers from reaching the Knights of Ravana, who took off the barbed wire, but the mom in good spirits slowly advanced her feet.

Soon the soldiers of the Kingdom of Visur will begin to prepare for magic, but they will be cut into pieces before they reach the magical range.

Without any explanation at all, when the soldiers who were killed one after the other saw the colour of fear, the Allied troops started moving at once when Elbus noticed that the shelling had stopped sometime, and heard the sound of faeces from the surroundings.

"The enemies are confused, and they are not in a fragile formation! Kick 'em all in the cavalry!

Oh!

With the Nobunaga decree, the Knights of Lavana cross the bridge with Changheng at the forefront and dare to attack in a fish-scale formation. The Alliance soldiers attack magically, but they are defended by the magical barrier of the Kagura on the horse placed in the center, and are quickly caught in close range and kicked away.

Spearmen enter the empty hole and stop the surviving soldiers. During the battle, Elbas, who was shown the difference between each movement like the Knights of Lavana, desperately put his head to work, and went to Changheng, the leader, to unleash earthen magic called Clay Barret.

However, the bullet made of earth was hindered by the magic barrier, which made Changheng run the horse by pulling out the sword of his waist, understanding that magic would not work.

"The kingdom of Visur, the first of its own! Marquis Alto Elbas! Compete against the unusual!

Don't you dislike Chang Heng too? He answers with a smile under his face.

"That's the spirit! The Knights of Lavana will take on Deputy Commander Masahiro Tsuchiya!

So Chang Heng, who was carrying the sword, rushed toward Elbus with the sword on his shoulder.

In this state, the moment of interception becomes a contest. This one has a treasure sword, so it will cut off the other sword!

As Elbus thought so, he concentrated for the time of passing, Changheng put his feet on the saddle and jumped.

It was Elbus who was thrown into oblivion by the unexpected movement of Changheng, but he took the slash of Changheng with his sword and fell off the horse.

It was Elbus who struck his whole body with a falling shock, but when Adrenaline came out, he stood up immediately and pointed at the sword, Changheng put a sword on his shoulder and stood flat.

"Come, you monster!?"

Changheng answered the words of Elbas by accident, where to attack from, walking around Elbas.

"A monster? Someone is a human being. I see, as His Majesty said, it is a pity to sit down with sincerity to say that for the first time people on the continent call demons and monsters something they do not understand."

Elbus shouted his sword at Changheng, feeling completely stupid.

"Shut up! I'm a brave man among the finest breed of elves! Don't make a fool of me for a human minute!

"Ha ha ha! What happened to the brave man? There are tens of thousands of people in the Eastern Union, like Brave One. And if you say you're a good species, what happened to this situation? Han! It's amazing to hear about good seeds."

"Shut up, shut up! You will definitely kill me!

It took you a while, what a fine seed. You short-hearted pig samurai with blood on your head.

With that in mind, Chang Heng looks at Elbus calmly, and Elbus rushes in and activates his skills.

"Skills, dancing....."

Kami-speed!

In an attempt to unleash countless slashes on Elbus, Changheng instantly filled the time and grabbed the arm of the swayed Elbus and threw the Elbus at the waist of judo.

Changheng said with a spare face to Elbus, who ran into severe pain with the sound of the air passing out.

"It depends on skills, and swordsmanship is nothing. Are you really this weak, the brave of the Kingdom of Visur?

"Ba, you idiot...."

When Changheng's fist entered the face of Elbas, who tried to shout, "Don't be stupid," he stunned.

"It's too weak to make the blade rusty. Hey, somebody take this guy to the Bureau of Intelligence and make him spit."

At Chang Heng's command, he saw the samurai riding Elbus as a prisoner, and fled first. Chang Heng said with a sick face.

"I heard that turmoil is the main cause on the continent, and the power is higher than that of the Lutais... if you open the lid, this is what it looks like. It's too weak to talk. Hey, he's chasing me! Take care of yourself!

Ooh!

With Chang Heng's victory over Elbus, the Knights of Ravana all at once started a fierce chase.

It can be said that Chang Heng felt weak because he had no choice. Until now, Left Jinjin and Changheng have fought because they were fierce men who fought the battle between the Serenity Empire and the Kingdom of Saltz for a hundred years just because of the turmoil.

In contrast, the kingdom of Visur only looked down on the other races, because in battle, slaves and mercenaries would fight, and they would hardly ever say they would fight.

Moreover, if the profession became a brave man, it was just that he was cheated, and in battle, because of the trumped-up existence, he was always watching behind him, so when he actually fought, he was overwhelmingly inexperienced, and he did not become an opponent of the Eastern Union, which had fought numerous battles.
