After the war, the mercenary regiment split apart. Naturally. The mercenary regiment had been rounded up by one Langleed, so it would be scattered as a matter of course without its collector.

Besides, those who participated as Sheila's army in the Battle of Endwidge soon became rebels to the kingdom of Abad. The rebel brand also endangered the survival of the Sydney mercenary regiment. It was only natural that the exclusive contract with Abard would be broken, and there was no small chance that the Abad army would chase him. The danger of being entangled was enormous. It is not impossible to get into the public if you are alone, but in large numbers, that is not the case. Who can blame a mercenary for showing up to wash his feet? The life of others. You can live as you please. Although Esq thought so, he also thought, however, that some must take over Langrid's will. I never thought that was me, but he moved in order to bring the splinters together in one place.

That's how Cage Copper, Cage of Ceasel's liquor store, became a hoard for the rest of the Sydney Mercenary Corps.

It was decided to lurk in a city like the one at the end of the eye and nose of Bandor, the king's capital, Ceasel, because of the fact that the city itself would be tightened up in Sentier, which was an avid Sheila sect, and in the Taural fortress, which was the base of the Sheila sect. Valter, who was the stronghold of the Royal Palace Army, is out of the question, and outside the King's Capital, etc. As far as Gordovan and Rancid are concerned, they have been cities in other countries until this time. Lurking in a city you don't know what you're up to is only a bet.

Then he wondered how he was going to live in Ceasel. That's a bet, too, but if you want to collect the rest of the party and start over again as a Sydney mercenary regiment, you didn't have to. There's nothing wrong with that. You just have to put your chest up and live in dignity.

That's how I've lived.

One day, he was only dreaming of resuming his activities as a Sydney mercenary regiment, and he drank it.

I was drunk and had no other dream in my drunkenness.

"But I didn't know Niewe was Setuna"

"Didn't you even notice in the esc?

"You can't possibly understand. I've never seen Setuna in person, and first of all, it's the mask he summoned. It wasn't a black spear."

I never even heard rumors that Setuna would use a black masked subpoena weapon. Setuna-Kamiya is a Gandhian hero and an armed summoner who makes a name for himself as a user of black spears. His awesome effects would have reached human ears like Esq, even if Gandhia herself had been aggressively hustled and unhustled. Mercenary operations are a matter of information. Information separates life and death. I can't even look at the weaker because I want to pay for it. It was normal to accompany those who were somewhat cheaper but stronger, a means to survive.

Most importantly, the Sydney Mercenary Corps has been known since the days of Captain Langleed, and it may be called Abad, so that the Esques no longer had to gather information about their employers. However, Langleed's exclusive agreement with Abard is also the result of intelligence gathering and remains unchanged in the notion that information separates life and death. Because Abad decided that he would survive this warring nation turmoil, Langrid entered into an exclusive agreement with Abad to try to make his power within Abad certain.

Langleed was a wise eye.

Abard could have said that his friendship with Gandhia, who had turned into a great power, had gained ground to survive the turmoil in the future. Princess Sheila's work in the Kruselk war would have greatly increased her political value. Abard could also use her as a negotiating material.

It is a political marriage.

The Sheila faction was enlivened because of the surge in the political value of Sheila Lewe-Abbard, Princess of the Kingdom of Abad, and because she began to see a move to use her political value for Abad, he said.

If we were to offer Princess Sheila, the other country would have to offer her a marriage of commensurate value. And I can only count enough to look around the surrounding countries, such as Princess Sheila and someone of equal value in Abad. Just nobility is not overwhelmingly enough. Even just a prince, no. He became the confirmed heir to the throne to be the next king, and had to be one of the most powerful nobles in the country. And getting married to such an opponent would deeply tie Abard's relationship with that other country.

But...

Princess Sheila could have said that she had to be in Abard.

Even from the current esc, I didn't know as much about this country as Sheila Lewe-Abbard, a royal family who was bleeding and sweating for this country. Except for the royal nobility, no human being is as devoted to fighting for his country as she is. I know very well because I'm a mercenary fighting for money.

Princess Sheila didn't ask for anything in return.

I don't ask for anything, I just look at the country. I take my sword only for my country, and I'm crushing my bones.

I also found it to Esq, a follower of Langrid, that the people would support her, and for the innocent enthusiasm of the Sheila people, it was even something I remembered to smile at.

Princess Sheila is not just popular with the people. The military men of Abad also had hope, respect, and love. Because everyone in the military is seeing what she looks like after she fights in the lead. It was on the fierce front line that Sheila appeared, and that is why she was called and awed by the two names of the Beast Princess. The reverence of those military men was passed on to the nobility, and it would have been no other than inevitable that a great faction called the Shiraz could have been formed.

With her, Abard is made up - it wasn't too much to say.

So the Sheila people feared and were concerned that she would be offered to another country as a material for the political strategy. Princess Sheila's concretization of political marriage due to her soaring political value inspired the Sheila sect, which incited the people.

It is the beginning of the Queen's Inaugural Movement.

Nobody thought that would make Princess Sheila worse off and strangle her, neither the Sheila nor the Aberd people, as one.

The radicalization of the Sheila sect generated a revolt in the Royal Palace.

Conflict between the Sheilas and the Royal Palace.

The battle of Endwidge took place and many Sheila militants lost their lives.

A number of generals, including Garan-Sidor, Kean-Window and Langrid Zan-Sidonia, were sprinkled with their lives on the battlefield of Endwidge and executed in the King's Capital.

Sheila Lewe-Abbard was also executed.

Not as a princess, but as a traitor to Abard.

That should have ended it all.

But it wasn't over.

Princess Sheila was alive.

Eventually, he was singing about his life.

I didn't survive the Battle of Endwidge.

Instead of taking part in the battle for the End Widge, he turned to the Shadows and was able to flee to other countries.

Now we don't know what we fought for.

Now those who died on that battlefield will not be floated.

Now there's no point in Langleed dying.

A farce.

That battle was a farce that the Royal Palace Army was designed to win from the beginning.

(Dog dies...)

Snuffing around his chest, Esq stroked Remill's hair. Remill had his head on his chest.

"But, well, should I say lucky"

"Lucky?

"Setuna's a Gandhian hero, isn't she? People like that are getting into Abard. Make a fuss."

Perhaps we should say that we are already making a fuss.

I just haven't gotten inside Abard. He showed up with Princess Sheila, who was supposed to be dead, and ruined her public execution. According to Setuna's story, that public execution was just a trap to attract Sheila, but that's not what I found out.

"Abard's gonna screw up."

Esq chuckled, staring into Remill's eyes looking up at this one. She looks a little strange. Maybe she doesn't understand how Esq feels.

"It's never been more painful."

It was painful and delightful.

My chest jumped just thinking about what would happen to Abard from now on.

Revenge.

You take Langleed with a crappy farce, and you make those who take your dreams pay.

"So, Princess Sheila, you have to live."

Sheila is at the heart of this commotion.

This mayhem is happening because she's alive and she's back in Abard. If she dies, that could be the end of everything. The problem of Gandhian heroes entering Abad may also see a political solution.

I couldn't let you do that.

Sheila needs to live.

Live, live, live, let Abard see you break.
