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

"Do you know the story of Lady Setuna strolling the city with Princess Sheila?

Merrill has been asking when Nares-Ragnahorn is finishing his late lunch and taking a short break. Busy as it turns around takes away even time for a break between him and his wife, but his wise wife never leaked a single complaint. It is also likely that we are beginning to become accustomed to life in Gandion and are also succeeding in melting into Gandia's aristocratic society. And the position of wife of the warrior Nares must be of some help in her life in Gandhia.

"Oh, I'm listening."

Nahless nodded as she stared at the face that perhaps left her childhood in Merrill's Rin. It gets so gentle to her voice, because her very existence takes away the mental fatigue of Nares.

"I hear you're making a fuss about the Wang Du Beast because of that. Isn't the city guard screaming, too?

"Uncle Lian and the princess of Abard..."

Merrill looked at the hollow with an inadvertent look, perhaps because Setsuna and Princess Sheila fantasized about walking around the city.

Setuna, the biggest factor that put an end to Zalwarn, and the princess of a country that, in the midst of the war, was targeting the territory of Zalwarn with tiger vision, but Merrill did not seem to be bound by such things. In the first place she also breaks Zalwarn's destruction by Gandhia as a thing of the past.

Strong.

I guess that kind of strength is peculiar to humans living in this warring world, but I don't even know how many humans are as flexible as Merrill. At least, isn't there only enough people in the Gandhian royal family to count as strong as Merrill?

Whether it be Leongando, Gracia, Cius Cloud, or Rhine, (although I don't know if I can count the House of Anthrius to the royal family), even Gisele Court, is bound and tied to the past. It is not possible to think that it is a family of deep love, but the depth of that love seems to stop Gandhia's legs is also a great fall.

In the first place, didn't Leongand pledge to cut off his love and move forward?

Didn't you move forward and swallow Logner and Zalwarn?

It was Leongando's lack of readiness to purify the interior of Gandhia, and also the weakness of the push of the Nares, which would have caused him to do so. We should have disposed of it sooner, such as the Rhine faction.

(Though...)

Nares shook his head in his chest. All this, you may not be able to blame Leongando. No way, not even Nares thought about it, such as a party of Reins trying to assassinate Setuna. The Reins hated Leongando, but because they were acting for Gandhia. All that was said and done was if you think of the country. That was out of my imagination, even in Nahless, to plot even the overthrow of the state.

Even if the Imperial Demon raid at the wedding had not been predetermined for its plot, there is no doubt that it could have been done thanks to Setuna and the Lion's Tail and the heroic grandeurs of the nations. But given what would have happened if Setuna's assassination had been successful, there would be a cold sweat. Of course, Gandhia got huge. Setsuna, even if you are not alone, you have the military, the national power to just cross with the neighbouring countries. But when it comes to fighting Kruselk, it's a different story.

Kruselk is the kingdom of demons. It serves countless Imperial Demons and its power is immense. You won't be able to fathom Gandhia alone, and that's suspicious even if Setsuna were here. With Setuna, Nares believes that working with neighboring countries will finally bring about equal forces of war.

Even in that sense, it is not a bad thing that Setuna, Gandhia's main power, should be at peace with the main war-class figures of other countries. Sheila Lewe-Abbard, in particular, is also the person Nahless had been eyeing since she was in Zalwarn. If she would be friendly and favorable to Gandia through Setuna, it would have never been more comforting.

Beast princess.

What she wields is a summoning armed axe spear called Heart of Beast, whose power is said to be incomparable. It is also said that Abard was penetrated independently against northern Juwain and Maldia, thanks to the Beast Princess and Heart of Beast, as well as her group of samurai.

"Princess Sheila seems to be interested in Setuna, and between us, it's a topic of discussion. If Setsuna marries Princess Sheila, she'll never be better."

"Sure..."

If Sheila is going to abandon the status of Princess Abad and become the wife of Gandhia's first uncle, that's great, as she put it. The relationship with Abad will be stronger, not least because the Beast Princess and her samurai will join Gandhia's forces of war.

But there's also the certainty that that won't happen.

First, Abard can't let Sheila go. Abard relies on Sheila for his homeland defense. You can't admit that you're going to be the wife of Uncle Ichiriku, or rather, that Setsuna is the one who should be son-in-law to Sheila.

Whatever, though it's ridiculous to imagine that far just because Sheila's into Setuna.

(In any case, Uncle Setuna should be married. for Gandia)

I don't know about these things, but they'll be there enough to sweep and throw away, like, a married person. That's why there are beautiful women around Setsuna, and they're not even trying to hide their love for Setsuna. If Setuna speaks of marriage, will she agree without one or two?

Marry, have a family, and you'll see all sorts of things.

Seventeen.

Young.

You're young, but you don't even know when you're going to die in these days. It is no exaggeration to say that getting married early and having children is an important mission.

I don't think Nares has any children yet.

The side of the girl fantasizing about Setuna and Sheila's future was a good one just to watch. Nares had never asked her for anything more in her years as his wife. At the beginning of the marriage, Meryl was fourteen. Maybe she wanted her to stay innocent, which was exactly what she was boxed in.

(You have... a future)

Nares missed his gaze from the side of Merrill. Who will stand next to Merrill in the future? Imagine that, and also remember the voidness.

I have no future.

"Speaking of which... sir"

When I realized, Meryl was returning from her fantasy.

"What? Altered."

"Master Augusto asked for it."

"Hmm...?

I had a bad feeling, because Meryl usually never gave Augusto's name in conversations with Nares. The head of the San Sian family is currently a member of the Nares family, but it doesn't make any difference that he is in a special position. Oh, come on. That wasn't a good name for words.

Meryl asks me like I'm ready.

"What do you mean you don't have time?

"... you mean that"

(Augusto... do the extra thing)

Nares snapped in his chest, but in this case he also knew that it was only to himself that he had not stopped.

He narrowed his eyes to the light outside the window that reflected in Meryl's serious eyes. Shining eyes are beautiful and dazzling as if they were an indication of her humanity.

"Of life... I don't have time"

"Of life..."

"I know what you mean. The time of life flowing through me is coming to an end."

"I don't know."

"I guess so. You're not me."

Meryl's distorted expression was hard on Nares. But I have to tell you something. There's something I need to tell you. To do this, I didn't even hate to break her heart.

"They poisoned me. Zalwarn's special poison. After the war, I let my men look for it, but there was nothing convenient about antidotes. In the first place, I don't even know what kind of poison it is. It seems different from the poison used by Master Sius Cloud. If it were the same poison as that one, I would have lay low on the hospital bed."

"Poison...... of Zalwarn...... Oh, no..."

"It's not your fault. Anyway, it's my fault. If I hadn't been exposed, if I hadn't been restrained, I wouldn't have gotten poison."

So, I guess.

Nobody was willing to resent it, or even despair of the world. I'm just accepting, digesting. No, maybe I sublimated.

(It's a convenient idea)

Nares mocked herself, but it was also true that she had no obsession with this poison in her mind. moment and time lost. Time for life. I hear the footsteps of death. I can hear Reaper. Still, I don't despair.

"I've been thinking about what I can do in the few hours left. Limited time. Let's do that and this. What a good place to be selfish, huh? There are only a few things I can do. What can I do? What can I do because I am nothing? That's all I've been thinking about."

After he had gone, he let his gaze wander into the void for a little while.

"No, you're not."

Shake your head.

"I knew it. I knew there was only one thing I could do. I am a Gandhian man. There was nothing I could do for Gandhia but do everything I could for her."

There's only one thing I can do.

It heats the mind and burns up the life just thinking. There was nothing more worthy of burning out the few lives left.

"I will strengthen this country. Even if I die, I will let the small group of continental nations gain as much power as they can to reign. To do this, His Majesty will have to be like a demon king, but that will put up with you. I will die. Your Majesty will be prepared to do the same."

"Sir."

It was as if Meryl's evocative expression conveyed a swirling emotion in her chest.

"Are you dissatisfied... sorry. Such a husband. I'm not going to be accompanied by you."

"What are you saying!

"Huh?"

"I was just double-checking that I was a good husband's wife! Don't make a casual mistake! No matter how many husbands, you'll be angry!

Meryl said outrageously. Nares was distracted by the fact that she was uncommon to expose her emotions and that the spearhead of her anger was directed at her.

"Me, Meryl......?

"Of course, it's sad that you have a short time with your husband. But I also found that there was something I could do to help my husband."

When Meryl put her hand on the table, she embarked on herself and stuck her face out.

"You said your husband would do everything in his power for Gandia. For the sake of this country, he said he was going to use his remaining life. I will help you, too. risking my life."

"What are you doing?"

"Having a husband's child is the mission I have been given!

"... Ha ha"

Nahless was just flabbergasted by the way his wife made her fists and burned her fighting spirit.

(... I thought we were going in a different direction)

But there was also a point in what she said.

Leaving behind the blood of Nares-Ragnahorn may also be good for Gandhia.

"That's narrow."

Sheila sent out when she entered the warehouse, a word that everyone thought.

"How many minutes is a regular inn?"

The warehouse at the inn that Setuna used in her training with Lux, as she said, is narrow. But as much space had been created as was necessary for training, and both Setuna and Lux had decided that this was enough. More importantly, it was big enough not to get in the way. It would be many times better than training in the crowd environment in the open air.

"Bad. No, I mean it."

Sheila's words and deeds are devoid of subjection. I don't dislike it. Should I say honest thoughts? I guess that's why. Setsuna liked her.

"It's nice not to decorate it like that."

"... then what are you doing, silly"

"Yes?"

Confused by Sheila, who turned that way as she suddenly wandered away, Setsuna lit up a portable demonic crystal lamp that had been handed to the innkeeper. When placed on a crate that had been stacked nearby, the narrowness in the warehouse emerges more. And we can also see that there is still room left for training for Setuna and Lux.

Countless scars were engraved on the floor that crawled over and over again. Although scars are mainly caused by the clash of empty Setuna wooden swords.

"... So, what was training like, after all?

It was when Sheila asked me, as if I had changed my mind.

"So shall we go with the demonstration? Your uncle?

From a corner of the warehouse where the light of the Demonic Crystal lamp could not reach, I wondered if a ghostly figure had floated around, offering me a wooden sword in my hand. The distinctive silver hair plays the light of the magic crystal lamp and shines. Needless to say, it was one of them, Lux-Vein.

Setuna, sipping of surprise, inquired chilly.

"Why is the captain of the Assault of the Pale Wind here?

"It's a boarding house, so it's natural to stay."

"Oh, speaking of which,"

Though convinced, it wasn't the reason he was in this warehouse. I wouldn't have even been hiding and resting here.

"Demonstration? Hmm, then let's do it with me"

"Yes?"

"Oh, that's good. Anyway, the princess is stronger, so there's no way she's going to get scratched and develop into a problem."

When Setuna was distracted by Sheila's suggestion, she offered Sheila the wooden sword that Lux had in her right hand.

"Hina, are you still a teacher?

"I understand the weakness of my students because I'm a teacher, princess"

"You know what?"

Sheila, laughing, received the wooden sword, waved it gently and seemed to ascertain the weight. I'm going to point my cut at this one.

"Oh, you're serious."

"Whoa, I mean it all the time. Otherwise, you can't do it."

The moment Sheila kicked the floor, her breath hit her ear. The blow is coming. I sheltered my knee kick to my abdomen with my left arm, but the pain transmitted my arm like a current. Fate would be an attack on the back. Setuna avoided rolling to the left, speaking in a distressed voice. A wooden sword streamed down the edge of his sight and pierced the floor. A piece of wood danced.

"Hiu."

Setuna jumped up as she even murdered at Lux's swallowing whistle. Take the wooden sword thrown by the master and set it up.

Sheila must be uncomfortable with the blow being sent down. Disgruntled, I saw this one.

My eyes, they were laughing.
