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

I'm coming.

Niewe Raam-Alsur crushed with no one as she distanced herself from the walls surrounding the city of Enciel.

The crushed words will be dispersed in the wind and disappear. It never reaches anyone. Not to mention that it could never have been there, such as reaching one of my loved ones who would be deep in the city protected by the walls on the other side.

Most importantly, the letter he wrote for must have definitely reached Nina. If the letter had arrived, his thoughts would have been conveyed safely, too. Nina is stubborn and inconvenient in some places, but she is better than anyone else at drawing on one's thoughts. Of all the brothers and sisters he has nineteen, only one loves Nina because she was the only one who understood him. Most of the other eighteen were enemies, and those who were not enemies were only indifferent outsiders. The only thing that could really be considered family was a sister named Nina and a mother who was turned away after Neewe lost interest in her father.

My mother is one of the Emperor Siwelhein Leighnas-Zaion's side chambers. Siwelhein had seven rooms, with Millwoods in the main room as first queen, and his mother Nilsara in the position of seventh queen. The youngest of the Emperors, besides Niewe, she also sets up princes and empress like Nina, Ninon and Niej with the Emperor. Siwelhein loved her the youngest, and she also responded to Siwelhein's love.

But it was a few years ago that such love came to an end in extreme ways.

It was at the same time that Neewe and the other Nilsara children were flown to the periphery in imperial territory, which is to say, it was an unquestionable fact attributed to Siwelhein's loss of interest in Neewe.

And that also prompted Niewe to lose interest in the emperor's successor feud and start spending time just for one sister who was watching over her.

Three years.

It's about the years that have passed since Neewe and Nina were flown to this imperial northwestern region. Three years, he spent his days in an area isolated from the centre. In the center, he and his sister, plus sixteen of his two brothers, continued to fight for a successor, and sees no less blood. Whenever I heard that kind of information, I didn't think it would rather be a blessing to be in isolated land from the center.

In fact, it was a happy three years.

There is no need to be swept away by the politics of the Empire, or even to indulge in the emperor's complexion. I never saw the days frowning at the Empress's factional feud, or the bragging of the brothers or the pulling of their legs. I just could spend my time working myself out every day.

I wanted power.

I wanted to be strong.

Without strength, if you can't stay strong, you can't protect every one you love. The harsh facts forced him to exercise harshly. Harsh, but not painful. The feeling that it was getting a little stronger became a joy. His joy also became the joy of one of his beloved. If she laughs at me, I can get over any of this. That's how Neewe has been over the last three years.

Continental calendar May 5, 202.

He turns eighteen with today.

Eighteen. Not at a special age. In the Empire, sixteen is considered the age of adulthood. I mean, I'm only saying that two years have passed since I was an adult when I was eighteen. But nevertheless, there was no doubt that the eighteenth birthday, which had no such strange philosophy, had become a special day that would never be forgotten.

He was going to get out of imperial territory today and head to a group of small continental states.

Niewe Raam-Alsur turned to the path equal to the wilderness when she bid Enciel farewell. Of course, I'm not walking away. It was nothing but reckless, such as trying to reach a small group of continental nations on foot.

I have a carriage for you. A single-headed carriage with some food and change of clothes on the carrier. Of course, travel expenses are luxurious. I'm pretty sure it's a long journey, but I didn't know how much preparation I needed, so I'm packing it as much as I can. If that's still not enough, we'll have to procure it locally. Travel expenses for that.

That travel expense is also until then, when it comes to being a prince who draws the blood of the emperor, even though he was removed from the successor struggle, and not a great sum for him, ruler of Arsul and Duke of Fight.

He was the one who had abandoned his days in the Imperial capital and accompanied him when Neewe was flown to Arsul to buy the emperor's unhappiness, and his name was Signer-Santo. Neewe trusted him so much that he called himself the Lord, and in many cases always put him on his side. Exactly when Nina and I were alone, I shunned him, but other than that, it was less about driving him far. Such signals also continue to meet Niewe's trust.

The first to go in the carriage is Coldor.

Coldor was a city located west of Enciel and one of the cities that had to pass if we were to aspire to a group of small continental states from Enciel.

The area under the jurisdiction of the Seventh Party Army of the Zaion Empire is wide.

Numerous cities and cities were under its jurisdiction, including Arsul, Coldor and Waleshael, mainly in the imperial northwestern city of Enciel. Among them, Arsul was the dominion of Niewe, not without special thought, but also the most south-easterly of the cities under the jurisdiction of the Seventh Party Army, and it could be said that he was in the opposite position from his path towards the group of small continental states from now on. That means he never stops at Arsul on this journey.

That being said, there are a number of cities that need to pass from Enciel in the quest for a group of small continental states, besides Coldor.

First, Coldor. Its small city west of Enciel was also one of the familiar cities for Neewe.

Neewe was not stubborn in obtaining personal power alone. Rather, in order to serve as Nina's assistant, she needed a grand horizon and the ability to manipulate the army groups freely. As a result, military exercises were often conducted, at which time it was not infrequent to view the entire Seventh Army jurisdiction on the battlefield and conduct large-scale exercises. In that case, cities near Enciel were often defined as defensive bases and became familiar with nature, cities such as Coldor and Waleshael.

If you go through Coldor, then there's Waleshayle, and there's a city called Sandion. Beyond those cities, we can finally get out of the Seventh Army jurisdiction. And as a periphery in imperial territory, getting out of the jurisdiction of the Seventh Army, which commands the defense of the border, can only mean getting out of imperial territory.

If we head west through Sandion, we can reach the border with Mashgah, the easternmost country in the small continental group of nations.

Normally, imperial servicemen never set foot in an area known as a group of small continental states. Because the will of Hein Leignus-Zaion, the initiating emperor of the Zaion Empire, makes it the nation that the empire should focus only on maintaining its national territory and that it should not plan an invasion of other countries at all.

For hundreds of years, the country has been defending itself.

It seems unusual to think of it that way, but if you think of a quarter of the continent as national territory, you didn't even know what the starting emperor thought that no more national territory was needed. It is the present state of the empire that even the present land is spared. No matter how centuries we have been focusing exclusively on internal affairs, total control of the vast earth is nearly impossible in the hands of man.

Still, in history, the empire never saw just one internal division, nor the worries of national disintegration. It has kept a quarter of the continent under control, and it has maintained its national territory for hundreds of years. Neither that nor this makes it clear to Niewe whether the idea is correct because he does not have the ambition of expanding the national territory and is fully committed to maintaining it.

The only thing I can say is that Niewe may be the first person to break the country since the beginning of the history of the Empire.
