"Mr. Faria would be happy to hold you."

To Ruufa's chilled word, Setuna half-eyed.

"That's what the captain looks like, Mr. Faria."

It's crap again, so Setuna turned that way,

The two of them are in a carriage carrying carriage down the street to Bahandar. There are no other soldiers on board, and it is no exaggeration to say that it operates just for the two of us. Most importantly, each carrier is loaded with large quantities of equipment, and some carriages carry weapons for sieges.

Damned hammer.

It was the latest weapon available to break through the castle gate and was initially scheduled to be revealed when it destroyed the Nagrasian gate. But such a unveiling was ruined by Setuna. By the time the breaking castle hammers moved out, the gates of Nagrasia had been destroyed and the infantry had fallen into an avalanche, he said. It was just before I got into this carriage that I was heard moaning about the soldiers of such a broken castle hammer squad.

They were breathing this time that it would be their turn, and they wanted Setsuna to work moderately hard for it. If they destroy enemy soldiers in Bahandar, it will be because once again, they will no longer be available. They also have a role to play and a hold on to it. Perhaps it remains unconvincing that the battle ends without fulfilling our mission, even if we were safe.

"Moderately hard work,"

"Yes?"

"No, about this one"

"... are you sure you're okay?

"At least I know it's safe to fall from some height."

Setuna came to talk about a throwing experiment she and Ruufa had done during her march to Bahandar. We summoned each other's subpoenas and tried to preview this operation. Of course, Astar, the commander, was fitted with permits, and he was careful.

Firstly, it turns out that the transport over the air by Silfed Feather is harder than I thought. Ruufa has to support Setuna's weight. Setuna herself, she's not fat or anything, but it doesn't mean she's light weight. Even though Ruufa was also the end of the armed summoner and boasted of his forged flesh, manipulating the summoning armed while holding Setuna seemed to be a severe drain on physical and mental strength.

It is then found that some height can afford it. Four or five meters would have allowed me to land on my feet, and even from a height of ten meters I had no problems. At about twenty meters, I managed if I tried to land at the tip of a black spear. Although, as a result, Chaos Blinger's power exploded and a hemispherical hole was drilled into the ground.

Trying from further altitude could also create an even bigger hole, and given the danger of being known to the enemy, the two experiments became carriages that ended there.

"At a height higher than that, there's no guarantee you'll be safe."

"It's okay. Trust me and Chaos Bringer."

"When you say that, you have no words to say back."

Ruufa laughed, but soon got a serious look.

"I'm like being here because of the captain and the black spear."

"Because Ruufa had strength."

Setuna was watching Ruufa's side as she was rocked by the carriage. The face of a young man who is only slightly similar to Laxus and not very similar to General Algazard. Even though he's older than Setuna, he doesn't get angry at all and shows no discontent or dissatisfaction when he talks in an eye-to-eye tone like this. I guess he understands the position and speaks up. That can be Faria, but she told me normally, except during the operation. Ruufa is not. Always trying to act like a deputy chief. Although it is crushed enough to make jokes.

You're also lucky to have met him.

If Azmaria hadn't unleashed the Imperial Devil on the King's capital that day, Setuna might not have even known Ruufa.

"Really?

"Trust me. Your Majesty's eyes. own power."

When Setuna told him, he laughed as lighted. And I'm gonna go peek at your table. I guess I went to check the distance to Bahandar. You can't get too close to flying. Recognized by the enemy. You can't be too far away. It is possible that Ruufa's mental power will cease to exist. In the former case, a response to the ambush will be made and confusion cannot be called. In the latter case, Luufa may also fall. I just wanted to spare you both.

"It's about time,"

Ruufa, returning from the palace of your men, so quietly began to cast a spell.

It takes a great deal of spell to perform an armed summons. It was not normally conceivable, such as being able to summon in an instant like Setsuna, and Lancaine was surprised. It's not normal. That may have been a sign that Setsuna was not a person in this world, but as a Setsuna, I did not think deeply about it. It's just convenient, and I appreciate it. You don't have to cast complicated spells like him. Being able to summon you instantly in an emergency was a great strength.

"Armed Summoning"

When I mouthed the end of the spell, Ruufa's whole body was wrapped in light. Light degenerates into a pure white cloak and manifests itself in this world. Sylphide Feather. His summoning armor usually just looks like a cloak. Any unmixed whiteness is painfully vivid to the eyes.

Ruufa isn't wearing armor under his cape, but that's to fly for a long time. Setuna jumping into enemy formation had to be armed and Ruufa herself had to do something to sharpen the weight. Setsuna wears lightweight armor. The platinum armor, which was disapproved of Faria, was ideal for a fiercely moving Setuna. I'm not fully defensive, but I also have the idea of not eating an attack.

Setuna made a stretch as she stood up in the carriage.

Okay, let's go.

"Yes."

With Ruufa's reply on his back, Setuna went out from behind the carrier. The subsequent carriage stops suddenly, but I don't mind circling my gaze. Among the armies marching through the wetlands was a figure of Faria wrapped in lightly dressed armor. Waving, she waved back at me with a bitter smile.

Ruufa's cloak turns into a pair of wings and his body rises in the air.

"Captain, hands."

Reaching overhead as he was told, Ruufa grabbed him disappointingly and pulled him up with both hands. It must have weighed quite a bit, but it must have also been aided by a subpoena armed. Setuna had no choice but to stick to Ruufa's body as it was, but she also had no time to worry about others' gaze. Ruufa wings Silfed Feather, and soars toward heaven.

It was the best Setuna could do to grasp it with all her might not to be shaken down. There is no way you can look down on the ground steeply distant and immerse yourself in emotion, etc. I can't afford it. The faces of the dazzling soldiers and phalia become instantly unrecognizable. Soaring. It's obvious that if you lose any power at all, you'll be shaken off.

It wasn't until a while after Ruufa stopped the ascent and started moving forward that there was room for Setuna. Although it was the ascent that hurried, there was no need to hurry any more than to reach a height that would not have been noticed by the enemy forces. It will take a little longer for the troops deployed east and south to reach their target point.

Under my eyes, the earth is vast.

How many dozens or hundreds of meters above?

Ruufa was rising to a height that not only overlooked the hilltop fortified city of Bahandar and the wetlands that spread to cover its hills, but also allowed it to see the surrounding terrain. Just looking down created fear, and Setuna put her strength into the arm she turned around Ruufa's neck to avoid being dropped. Ruufa is also holding Setuna with her free arms.

"You won't be distracted by the enemy."

Probably not.

It will be safe unless the enemy has an armed summoner and is also found by its ability to summon armed. That possibility is not zero, but it's harder to turn back than it once flew. The operation is moving. Both the Grad and East forces are approaching Bahandar one by one.

The wetlands, filling the area around the Bahandar hills, are stretching significantly towards the west among them, and it would have been difficult to align their footprints if troops had also been divided to the west. The blue wetlands reflect sunlight by the way, indicating that there are countless puddles. He said he had his feet taken to the wet ground and the march was irresistible.

Still, we need to cross this wetland and drop Bahandar.

Dropping Bahandar would not only connect the supply line with Recondal, but could also serve as a restraint to Zalwarn's neighbor Meredo and a deterrent to Reuben, a city northwest of Bahandar. More importantly, even if the Gandhian army loses in this war and is forced to withdraw from mainland Zalwarn, it does not mean that the undefeated Bahandar will be immediately recaptured.

Bahandar is a troublesome place if it belongs to an enemy country, but he says that if it belongs to his own country, there will be no more reliable base.

(also in view of the possibility of withdrawal…)

Setuna was remembering the words of Ayn-Rajar, who would be in the army on the east side. It was after the military conference. He is still somewhat more reliable and preferable when acting as one general than when he is an avid Setuna fan.

'This war, it wasn't opened as planned. I wasn't ready either. To that evidence, I had to take the method of marching sequentially before the army could be aligned. It was the only way to limit the battlefield to Zalwarne.'

It's the same for everyone who doesn't want the country to be a battlefield. The country is rough and the people are hurt. That's why Leongand said he decided to attack Zalwarn before he could make a move. He said he encouraged his enemies to defend themselves by launching an attack first.

Even as Zalwarn, it will be the mountains that want to attack against Logner, but if Nagrasia is dropped, we will have to attack him from Bahandar to Recondal. Humanity is what we want to avoid cutting Bahandar's power. Until Bahandar is ready for battle, there will be no skirmishes on the Recondar side. Astar was also nodding at Ein's assertion.

"We took control of Nagrasia as planned, and the bridgehead was built. The Gandhian army has taken the method of sending troops from here to everywhere. Our role is to drop Bahandar and connect the supply line with Recondahl, but worst of all, if only Bahandar could control it, he would have won this war. '

Even if the central army were to be defeated and withdrawn to Nagrasia, it would take time for Zalwarn to regain Bahandar. And Zalwarn is not in a situation where he can carry out as long an offense as he once did, Ein sees it. It is difficult to advance through the wetlands and attach them to the walls, even if armed summoners are used, there are armed summoners here as well. As long as The Lion's Tail is in Bahandar, it can be an invincible stronghold where contradictions and contradictions live together.

Bahandar continues to be a lion's fang that devours Zalwarn's throat.
