Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

"Something's going on with Zalwarn."

Tension ran on Worzin-Mardin for that one word because I thought the time had finally come. The boys are moving around noisily around, but not like disturbing his consciousness. The usual. It was a familiar landscape and it was somewhat creeper for the boys to be quiet back.

"Yes. Gandia raises all troops and invades Zalwarn territory. It seems to have overwhelmed Nagrasia and caused Bahandar to fall on his feet as well."

"Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh bahandar with a hard time falling down. Difficulty, Attack, No, Falling Bahandar, too."

It made sense for the other person to emphasize it on purpose.

Bahandar was once the property of this country. It was the most important city and land in the strategy against Zalwarn. The fortified city on the hills surrounded by wetlands was a land of hope and fulfilment that was difficult to attack from the enemy and easy to protect from allies.

Meredo, one of the countries included in the group of small continental states. Geographically, there is a logner next to the east, Zalwarn to the northeast and a sea lion to the north, bordered by Azark to the south. Moreover, it is also adjacent to countries such as Vedor, Ijuar and Egmund, and that would be such a group of small nations. Not all of them are hostile to each other. Especially with the countries on the south side, Azark and Egmund, who had such a friendship that it was okay to leave their backs to them when they went north.

Meredo has long had the intention of going north. That's from the days of the previous kings. One reason why we want to go north, not south, is the existence of Vashtaria, which holds the northern part of the continent. For a country that defined Vashtara's doctrine as state religion, assimilation with Vashtaria was the natural consequence of being the ultimate goal. You can say that no other reason is necessary.

Meredo's north march comes from faith.

In the past few years, however, Meredo had given up his outings and was stuck in the country. The biggest cause of this is that Bahandar, who was also a star of hope for the north, has been seized by Zalwarn.

It was six years ago. Bahandar, who has bounced Zalwarn's attack several times, has emerged as a means of prolonged attack. A great formation surrounding the wetlands of Bahandar themselves. Meredo sent many soldiers to truce Bahandar, but each time he was bounced off and could not even break down the siege. Zalwarn meant it. They were putting out all their forces only to build a siege net in Bahandar, and they weren't even paying attention to the rest of the world. It would mean that Bahandar's presence was so blind by then, but anyway, after a six-month offensive, Bahandar fell. I guess I ran out of food, and I ran out of gin and roots.

Worgin wanted to compliment Bahandar's guardian, saying he kept it well for six months without receiving support from his own country. but in front of the king, it couldn't be done.

Most importantly, it is Salius Ray-Meredo who is sending him a sentimental letter in recognition of the struggle of the Guardian, who has decided to surrender.

It was not until after Bahandar fell that its Salius Ray-Meredo stopped showing interest in the outing by keeping it trapped in its shell. I publicly declared that I would invest in internal affairs, and since then I have stopped sending soldiers out of the country. Although it no longer means moving soldiers only to defeat enemies that threaten the borders, that's not why the treasury moisturizes. Salius began to pour money into developing talent and expanding his power.

"Do you know how I dropped it? Gandhia wouldn't be able to use man-sea tactics like Zalwarn, would she? It hasn't even taken long."

"The details are unknown, but the black spear in the example seems to have worked"

"Another black spear. Ah. Is that all Gandhia has?"

Salius went like that, but his bluffing was something that clearly cared about the black spear boy.

Salius Ray-Meredo is a young king who has just arrived in his thirties. She has a beautiful appearance, and I hope she was just confused with the girl at a young age, and I still don't see decay in her beauty. Occasionally, the appearance so much that even that unwilling Worgin fell in love was fascinating to both men and women of his subjects. His national popularity is tremendous and enthusiastically supported. Regardless, it cannot be supported solely by appearance, and Meredo's state of affairs has been stable since Salius took over the throne, and there has never been a voice of dissatisfaction from the people. The only glitch is about Bahandar, which is probably why Salius doesn't care about Gandhia, who has easily dropped Bahandar. Or it's no surprise that there's one or two things you want to do good for Zalwarn, who was easily dropped Bahandar.

The Warzins were in a building called the Windy Outhouse in the castle of the Wang capital, Claia. The Wang capital, Claire Claire, is a large city centered on Mountain Castle, and the city stretches out at the foot. Equipment has been created to exchange castles in various parts of the mountain, but the windy outhouse was different from such an establishment. The grandfather of Salius, or many of the detached palaces made by order of the kings of earlier generations, was a building for the princess, and the detached palace of the wind was one of them.

Salius liked this outhouse, where his mother lived, and often used the building when he talked to Worgin about his political strategy and when he worked out his strategy. Sometimes not using this place in a meeting with someone other than Worgin is a narrow wind outhouse, but I guess there are some criteria for being Salius.

Worgin is allowed access to the windy outhouse, that is.

"Was it Setuna-Kamiya? Does it have anything to do with Quon-Kamiya?

"I've never heard of brothers or blood ties."

"Yeah. Kuon looked cute, but what about Setuna?

It was quite a while ago that the White Shield, led by Kuon-Kamiya, visited Meredo. I remember it as it was before the current key executives of The White Shield aligned, but Worgin had roots in his lack of good negotiations with The White Shield, which he didn't quite remember. By forgetting the White Shield, I also wanted to forget my lethargy. Most importantly, I succeeded in forgetting the White Shield personnel, but I couldn't forget the mistakes I made.

"I don't even know who you are."

"So is that... I don't want to see you again."

When Salius looked far in the eye expecting something, the boys around him stopped moving. Everyone is watching Salius in unison. I suppose the beautiful boys are familiar with the fact that they are spoiled by Salius but can therefore stay here. I am extremely afraid that Salius' interest will shift to something else. Nevertheless, they also know to shred the thrill of Salius if they show that attitude at all, they went back to their original state while Salius looked far away.

"So, it's the real deal."

"Yes."

"What shall we do?

Worgin looked into Salius's eyes. There are signs in the King's eyes that he is enjoying this reaction. If he asks without a subject, it is often already decided in the heart of Salius. I'm sure it's been tried, but Worgin knew today why he was called out to the windy outhouse.

"It will be easy to cut the land of Gandia, which has invaded Zalwarn with all its might. However, I am concerned about how Gandia will move in the future. There is also a great possibility to be satisfied solely with the repression of Bahandar and Nagrasia. If you thought you had attacked Gandhian territory, you could have attacked Bahandar as your starting point."

"You know very well. I thought about it a lot, too. Cut off Gandia's national territory, but see if we can improve Meredo's national power. But I realized that was a big mistake. We've always wanted to go north. It was also aimed at the national territory of Zalwarn, to the north. I've been asking for opportunities ever since Bahandar was taken away."

Salius stood up from his chair, holding the boy next to him and stroking his hair lovingly. The boy also has an unsatisfactory look on his face, but I don't know if that's what he meant. It is possible that you are acting because you can live the best life in the royal castle, or that you accept Salius from the bottom of your heart. Most importantly, Salius was a doctrine that would not force a reluctant boy to become his own. It is his idea that it is not beautiful to use power to twist down.

It's also a pleasure to watch and love from afar.

That's not how Salius thinks, I don't hate Worgin.

"Don't you think this is a good time to go north? Zalwarn is busy responding to Gandia, and Gandia's army is paying Zalwarn as well. If we're going to attack the squid, it's the only way. Regardless, squid will also be a fiercer battle than you need to worry about Zalwarn. But we can't miss this opportunity. Whether Gandhia triumphs over Zalwarn or Zalwarn leaves Gandhia, we must continue to wait until the next opportunity comes when the battle is over. That could be long enough to be distracting."

"So..."

When Worgin looked into Salius's eyes, he nodded quietly.

"Invade the squid. Consolidate the Western Guards and use all other forces."

A powerful voice reminded him that he was king of Meredo.
