"Your Grace, were you here?"

It was Zephyr-Maldean who came in to jump inside the tent. The same gentle expression of phase is even odd in the dark air that covers this camp. But it was also true that Leongand remembered relief whenever he saw his four friends and generals the same as usual.

"Were you looking for me? What's going on?

"Lord Setsuna's consciousness has been restored."

"Is that true!?

It wasn't impossible for Leongand to embark on himself either. There was a lot of inconvenient information that came into his ear after he retreated to escape the dragon's sphere of power.

That's also the information that Setuna Zenon-Kamiya was wounded fighting the dragon that appeared at Fort Bünell. Besides, he said he remained unconscious. It was only natural that Leongand didn't care.

Most importantly, the news that Setuna has been defeated by the Dragon has not been made known to anyone less than the Legion Leader. Information that Gandhian spears suffer defeat only lowers the morale of the entire army, even if it is a fact.

Even though the war is starting to drop, if there is talk of a black spear on the line of favors being wounded on top of this, the soldiers could be desperate.

Under such circumstances, Leongand couldn't help but spill a grin on Zephyr's resulting report.

"Yes. They're just getting tested by a military doctor right now."

"Right...... Good."

Leongand closed his eyes slowly as he exhaled in relief.

What floats behind your eyelids is the appearance of a boy groaning in pain.

It was when Leongand faced Setuna, who remained unconscious. The boy who carried Gandhia's expectations all by himself was just full of creativity, and Leongando couldn't help but feel the weight of the role he had given Setuna. At the same time I was glad my life was safe, I had my head on the possibility that even he might not be enemies of that dragon.

But that's why you can't stop walking. We set foot in the land of Zalwarn, won battles everywhere, and finally came close enough to put the dragon palace in sight. If you break through the Pentagon, at the end of your eyes and nose, there is the capital of Zalwarn and the castle of Mirelbas-Ryburn, the king of the land. You can't leave here.

We have to break through the Five-Way Defense Force and drop the Dragon Mansion.

Otherwise, the sacrifices we have made so far will be pointless. The righteousness set forth in Myram weakens the air, it loses its meaning. Justice must be done. And only the winner is allowed to speak justice. Just because you've lost a lot of fighting power, it's impossible, such as pulling up to Gandhia here. That's the same as defeat.

Regardless, the situation is very different from that of defeat.

Four cities - Nagrasia, Bahandar, Zeol and Malwayr - will have come under Gandia's control, with about a third of Zalwarn's national territory in their hands. It is also natural to hear voices saying that that is not enough. Enough results, enough results, enough results. That alone will greatly increase Gandia's national power, and the threat of Zalwarn will be small.

But when it all goes well, it's about. If we lower the front here, it is clear that we will lose some of what we have gained.

Firstly, it will be difficult to maintain Malware.

Malwale is a city in the northeast of Zalwarn. Even the supply line is stretching. After the Gandhian army lowers the front, if Zalwarn's residual power goes toward the recapture of Malware, it's likely to end there.

Besides, Gibbel's moving.

Zibel said Gandhia had taken control of the silenced southeastern Zalwarn city of Sumaada and had also deployed troops and placed them under control in the former Merisol territory east of Fort Gallon. If Gandhia pulled the army, there was also a great chance that Zibel's army would move into Malwayside control.

Therefore, I can't back down.

We must defeat the dragon that appeared in the Pentagon and make it to the Dragon House.

"Can I see you?

"No... let's stop now. I don't want you to force me."

Leongand told him quietly. It would be nice to go see Setsuna immediately and be happy to be safe. It is not bad for a king to guide himself to the spear from Mizumi as a performance. Some will be struck in the chest by Leongando's actions, and after the war, he contracted to be told as a beauty story.

But Leongand decided not to do it, considering the impact his presence would have on a boy named Setuna.

Setsuna refers to Leongando as her only master. That is so obvious to everyone's eyes that they whisper to each other that black spears, such as the Zephyrs, are also like puppies in front of Leongand.

He will try to behave with dignity in front of Leongando, no matter how exhausting or agonized he is by the pain. Even if I can't, I'll emphasize that you're safe. As Gandia's black spear, as captain of the Royal SS Lion's Tail, and as a royal palace summoner.

Leongand recognizes that's a boy named Setuna, and that recognition should be no big mistake.

I can't help but think of it as something healthy.

but Leongand thinks it's not in the main to force Setuna to do it just for herself.

Setuna should be forced to do so only on the battlefield. Moreover, that is not always possible for an armed summoner of black spears, even if it is not possible for an ordinary person. Whatever the predicament, I can expect him to overturn it. And it was he who answered that expectation.

That's what I've done before.

It is Setsuna who has had unthinkable consequences for the ordinary man. Balsar Plains, only Logner, only Bahandar.

With one or two defeats, Leongand's trust never wavered.

Instead, I even learned to relieve myself by reaffirming the natural logic that even Setsuna can lose. He is not a monster. Never undefeated or indestructible. He is a seventeen-year-old boy, a man who is no different from Leongands and others, even if he is from another world.

Sometimes they can screw up, sometimes they can get hurt, sometimes they can lose.

"Did you teach Bell?

"Yes, of course"

"Right. Lai Lai"

Did Zephyr bring a smile to Leongand's reaction because he remembered Faria's reaction, which was informed that Setuna's consciousness had returned?

Faria-Belfaria worked vigorously since the rendezvous. It's like even trying to forget that Setuna remains unconscious.

Nevertheless, the appearance of armed summoners is not so much outside of combat. As an assistant captain, the Lion's Tail activity record is compiled in a report and submitted to Leongand as it stands, it can be said that it is her job to do so. In the Wang capital, you may be chased by chores, but let's just say there is no such thing in the enemy land.

The Royal SS has three teams. Of which, "Lion's Fang" is a shield, "Lion's Claw" is the role of approaching Leongand as a sword, and that remains unchanged on the battlefield and in ordinary times. But only The Lion's Tail is different. They were the only ones whose main mission was not to be on the king's side, but to re-war the battlefield.

Like the tail of a supple lion, he runs freely through the battlefield and ravages his enemies. That was the Royal SS Lion's Tail, and the way it operated as a guerrilla force was its role from the beginning.

Though not able to operate well as a guerrilla force, it was the Lion's Tail that functioned well enough as a force of war. Underlying the fast-forward march of the western march is the activity of The Lion's Tail. If The Lion's Tail hadn't been incorporated into the Westward Army, it could have been difficult to break through Bahandar.

The distribution of power in Zalwarn went well. The central army gained the defense of the iron wall by the hardest barrier, the White Shield, and even concentrated armed summoners, the "Pale Wind" and allied reinforcements.

The north march was equipped with a minimum of fighting power to drop Malwales, as well as armed summoners (Cain-Vivre) and aliens (Ur). It was too much power.

And westward march. He followed the Lion's Tail, the highest power that Logner's strong men and Gandhia boasted. It was not clear how much of a war they would have had.

Anyway, if you'll be active on the battlefield, that's all you need. I don't care what you do at all times. What Leongand wants from The Lion's Tail is an outcome and an achievement. When there's no battle, you can rest.

Faria may not be convinced by that alone as a gender.

So I guess it's still working vigorously. When it comes to rest, it's someone named her who doesn't listen, and that's why Leongand even trusts Faria-Belfaria. I have trouble falling because I am unscrupulous.

If Faria falls, it will surely have a negative impact on Setuna.

Setsuna needs Faria. He's still like a toddler. Summoned from different worlds to this Illus Valle, he was thrown out into this earth without knowing his right or left. That's how he met her.

To him Faria must have been the benefactor of life and, more than that, the support of his heart.
