"You idiot."

Cyrus told them as if to kick their thoughts like that.

"What?"

"I wanted to die for Master Mirelbus. For Master Mirelbus's sake, dying is not terrible either. Rather, it equals joy. That's what I thought."

Even now, I think so.

If it's for Mirell Bus, who found himself, it's easy to risk his life. Even though the death made no sense, I didn't even think it would matter. If we could repay Mirelbus for his grace, it would have been as good as any unusual death. Because I could see the point in throwing my life aside for him.

But.

"But it's too late. No longer have I lost my place to die"

Cyrus was aware that the war between Zalwarn and Gandia was over. With the death of Mirelbas-Ryburn, who complained of a thorough anti-war and did not give up victory until the end, it could be said that Zalwarn's reason to fight was crushed. Those who have so far tried to fight Gandhia will be depressed and lose their will if they listen to the warriors of Mirelbus.

It seems that some of Cyrus' men have not yet lost their motivation, but that is only a small part of it. Fifty out of five hundred people fought with the intention of dying, and there's nothing we can do about it. I'm just dying miserably. It's just a waste of your life.

"It's not over yet."

"That's right. You can show our will!

"What do you want me to do?

He did not feel frustrated by the blue of his men. Instead, I even thought I was jealous. If I were twenty years younger, I would have screamed blue like them.

(I'm old too)

He sighed in his chest. This battle for Mirell Bus came to Dragon Land, determined by my heart to put an end to it. It was a fierce fight. There were also several life-threatening crises. A Gandhian fierce man jumped into the depths of the Zalwarn army main unit, but with the help of the dragon-eyed army troop leaders and soldiers, he was not injured.

In doing so, the Gandhian army gained momentum. The soldiers of the Dragon Eye Army were then seized, and several troops were destroyed. Though we have rounded up the soldiers who have lost their troop leaders and reconstructed their formations, the war situation follows a path of deterioration without being able to do anything more than give the Gandian army a gap to penetrate.

If you were aware, the main unit of the Zalwarne army had been driven to a situation that was not an exaggeration, even if it was half-baked, leading to the total annihilation of the rear forces. The hope that remained was that of the Mirel Buses headed for the main unit, but it was also made hopeless by reports of Mirel Bus battle deaths.

I survived, he thought.

All that was an unexpected event.

Regardless of how successful Mirelbus' main offensive was, he had decided that he would die in battle. I fought hard on the battlefield and thought it was something scattered in it. It would be best if we could die in the same place as Mirell Bus, otherwise we should have opened the bloodline for Mirell Bus and died. But he was once entrusted with the command of the main unit, and he couldn't move. It is only natural given the position of a god general, but from a distance from death, he overlooked the battlefield.

As a result, Cyrus may have been able to perceive objectively the end of the battle.

"Zalwarn soldiers are creatures of will and pride."

"That should have been all of us"

"If you're going to die on the battlefield as a Zalwarn soldier, is that what you want?

The sincere obsession of his men was a true indication that they were not left to temporal emotions to deviate from death.

"For Master Mirelbus. For the victory of Master Mirelbus. Your Excellency, isn't that so?"

"That's right. But that's only if Master Mirelbus was the lord of Zalwarn."

Cyrus went on thinking it was a terrible trick while I was at it.

"Master Mirelbus was killed in battle. Let us know what will happen if the Lord of Zalwarn dies in battle. The seat of the Lord of Nations will automatically belong to another Pendragon clan lord. It is the new lord who holds our destiny. He commands us to die, and for the first time we are allowed to die. Death on its own is nothing short of treason against the country."

"To the country..."

"Rebellion......!?

"That's right. As a soldier, I am proud and willing to die at will without the life of a new king."

Cyrus glanced at his men and shook the reins. When his beloved horse hisses, his ambition paves the way for the surrounding military horse. I was surprised to see what the soldiers were up to, but he didn't care and ordered his horse to move forward.

"My lord...!

"Isn't that a trick?"

"But that's what's right. It is not ourselves that holds our lives. It is the Lord of Zalwarn who decides how to use our lives."

That was the right opinion, but at the same time, Cyrus knew that it was decidedly wrong. Zalwarn will no longer have a new lord. One of Mirelbas-Ryburn's Zalwarn reforms was effected by his death. The distorted state system whereby the head of the Pendragon clan will in turn take the seat of the national lord will come to an end and a new political system will begin.

In order to do so, the cooperation of the Pendragon clan principals, who would otherwise be new kingdoms, would be necessary, but that would also be fine. The head of the Revien family was a collaborator of Mirelbas-Ryburn and a supporter of reform.

"So what are you going to do?"

"There's more to it than surrendering. Mirrelbus will want it too."

"Is that the order of the new lord of nations!

"In this situation, we can't wait for the Lord's orders."

So he proceeded with the horse. Left over a dozen, his offerings also continued.

(Sounds sophisticated)

Cyrus mocked himself, but it is also true that he had no choice but to do so.

You don't have to let them die. It doesn't make any sense. They are good warriors, and if they are raised, they may also become competent commanders. Would there be a reason to kill such personnel in a determined battle of trends?

They don't seem convinced, and they don't know their emotions. It is not hard to imagine that it was a man named Mirelbas-Ryburn who picked ourselves up to our current standing, and that if Mirelbas had not been a national lord, we would have continued to exist with mere dominance.

Zalwarn's ruling system, which lasted hundreds of years, did not change, and I guess he kept spinning history, remaining bisected by the ruling and controlled classes. I guess the bugs that crawl through the ground stayed the same. Of course, such history does not necessarily last forever. Even if the lord was not a Mirell Bus, it might have come to such an end. Instead, Mirelbus should be seen to have done well. He tried to fight through the end in a dying country, beset by a fierce poison called Nares-Ragnahorn.

At the end of the battle, he was able to find a place to die.

(Where is my place of death)

Cyrus-Ode thinks. As I told my men, opportunities and places have been lost.
