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

"Oh my God, Admiral! Princess!"

Speaking out loud to Esque-Soma was during routine training and staring at each other with a wooden sword in his hand. The wooden sword is that which cut down the tree, and sharpened from it. Of course, I didn't just make one bottle, although I made a few, but they were highly inconsistent and could not be made uniformly. Sharpening wood with black spears is difficult. Sometimes I use it differently than I used it for, but sometimes I never did the task of sharpening a wooden sword out of a tree, etc. Anyway, a few wooden swords that had been sharpened by mercenaries who could not have been armed summoners had been dancing in the void every day for the past decade or so.

Setuna turned her gaze to Esq when she stopped staring at the Sydney Mercenaries. The simplified training station behind the fort is nothing more than a space known as the training station. I mean just branding the slightest clearance in the depressed woods as a training station or something, but I didn't see enough room for a wooden sword to strike each other, so I had nothing else to do but train here. The fort has no value other than to be used as a living space. There are fifty or so people in there. Even if any room was a training facility, you can't wield a wooden sword any more than you use it as a living space.

Hiding in a fort is more important than training.

Still, training is indispensable because as soon as you stop working out, such as human muscles, they fall instantly. If the muscles fall, so does the physical ability. Decreasing physical ability also makes it difficult to control the power of black spears. Black spears absorb Lance of Design and Mask of Dispair and become powerful. Setuna can also be swept away by the power of black spears if she doesn't build up and strengthen her flesh.

Overwhelming force.

Swinging can also mean harm to your people and allies.

No matter how much, that must not be all. So he lacked training, and he apprenticed to Lux-Vain. To build up the flesh and gain the power to only fully control the summoning armament. That's how I first wonder if Setuna could name an armed summoner with her chest up.

"What happened?

Setuna walked out toward Esq as she let her wooden sword play. Esq stood about between the fort's backyard and the training center, something with a piece of paper in his hand. Newspapers, or reports from his men. Either way, I had to have a bad feeling about Esq's hasty mouth. It is extremely rare for Esq to adopt such an attitude.

Sheila, too, is turning back to Esq as she lifts her hips from the rock she was replacing her chair with. As Ragna, held by Sheila, flew out of her hand, she flew towards Setuna with her judgment and wings. Setuna said nothing against the dragon that landed right over Setuna's head. It was usual for him to form over Setuna's head.

"It's tough, tough"

Esq's reply did not elicit guidelines. In his mouth as if he was sparing out, Setuna roughed his tone as he packed his distance from him.

"I don't know how hard it is."

"Fine, right?

"No."

"Gandhia has decided to march to Abad to rescue the princess."

Esq has told us to put up pieces of paper and read them up as if they were going to read them. I guess I'm not actually reading it out, I'm just saying what chewed up the contents of the pieces of paper. In the long run, the piece of paper text appeared to be something longer and more complicated.

"Ha!?

Setuna was simply stunned. I can't help but be surprised. It was difficult to understand, and easy to believe. I don't think Esq would lie, and even if he did, the lies he would lie to are to the extent of being joked about. I'm not even supposed to be joking about what I just said. There's no way you can be done with a joke.

"Now, what the...?

It was also for confirmation that Setuna asked again, and because she needed time to regain her calm. There's a little confusion going on in his head.

"So Gandhia decided to march to Abad to rescue Princess Sheila."

"What do you mean?

Nothing like this has happened, but Setsuna is no longer able to judge calmly. So I don't even know how easy it is to figure it out. The decision to march. This means that Gandhia will be sending troops to Abad territory.

Abard is a friendly country of Gandhia. We even have an alliance. If there was no point in hostility, there should have been no reason.

"Simply put, that's Gandia's answer."

"Answer…"

"Do you remember Abard rebuffing Gandhia?

"Oh... you mean that"

Setuna glanced at Sheila on the side as she took the chilling sloth of the escu. She stood still. My hands were trembling and my eyes were shaking. I guess she was shocked too, but it was more like she understood exactly what was happening and what was going to happen than Setuna. Blood draws from his face, his expression is tense.

(Traitor -)

Words like that go through the back of my brain.

A brand pointed out by Sid Zan-Rufaus and poked by the Abad government could become a reality by Gandia's actions.

According to Esq, Gandia is marching to rescue Sheila. It was a response that Sheila couldn't help but be taken for selling the country to Gandhia, and to Setuna, Gandhia's movements seemed incomprehensible.

"Anyway, go back to the fort, both of you. We need to figure out what to do now."

"Right..."

Setuna nodded to Esq's suggestion and walked toward the fort, not him. I walk for a while and realize she's not following me. Turning around, Sheila was standing in the same spot as earlier.

"Sheila."

"Oh, I'll be right there."

She didn't move, keeping her expression strong.

Setuna walked over to her and pulled the hand. Sheila didn't resist, but she didn't come back to hold Setuna's hand.

Back in the fort, the mercenaries were making a scene. Everyone heard from Esq. If the invasion of Abad by Gandhia becomes a reality, there will be war. War is where mercenaries make their money, and it's where they work. There was no reason for the mercenaries' blood to make a scene, and perhaps it was natural for them to be arguing over which one they should be.

The cafeteria is just ahead of us as Esq guided us. No, as much as it's not an exaggeration when it comes to the dining room and conference room, this dining room was used for meetings. Even so, it has only been opened a few times in less than a dozen days.

There were no more meetings at hand than there were no significant changes in the situation surrounding the fort. We just had an irreplaceable daily report together, and there's nothing to gain. Spending that time on training and rest is extra worthwhile.

But all this time, except for the story.

The situation has moved.

Besides, there was a pretty big move. I have to hold a meeting.

Participants in the meeting are Setuna, who should also be the ruler of a group of this fort, Sheila, who is the object of this group's actions, and Esq, the representative of the mercenaries, and Remill and Dorin, who can be called his two bellies. Later, Ragna also participates, but to the extent that he occasionally speaks from above Setuna's head, he could not even be considered to be a participant.

Such a meeting of five and one was held this time in unprecedented tension.

"The agenda is about our future course of action."

"Our purpose will remain the same."

"I know that..."

Esq has handed a piece of paper to Setuna.

"What's this?

"It's what our team got. Gandhia's statement."

"Gandia's statement…"

Setuna understood that Esq's words earlier were not lies, through her eyes at the text written on the pieces of paper. The piece of paper seemed to be an article in the newspaper dated June 9. The magazine name Dragon House Newspaper would be proof that it is a newspaper published in Dragon House.

There was a clear account of Gandhia's reaction to Abad's strangulation, which also clearly explained why Gandhia had led to the march against Abad. The article endorses Gandhia's decision, condemns Abad's way and says it is Gandhia who has justice.

It was on June 2nd that Abard disputed Gandhia.

It was a strangulation of the outrage by Setuna Zenon Lars-Enjour Divgard and one of his parties, and an impeachment for keeping Sheila Lewe-Abbard hidden. It asks the Gandia government for clarification and response to Setuna Zenon Lars-Enjour Divgard, as well as for the extradition of Sheila Lewe-Abbard.

It was Gandhia's reaction to this Abad government strangulation that attracted public attention, and the Setunas were concerned. Depending on Gandhia's reaction, Abad's domestic situation moves a lot. If Gandia were to apologize to Abard and respond to Sheila's surrender, Setuna would have to respond as well. or so, if Gandia rebels against Abad, relations between the two countries will follow a path of deterioration. It means that the friendship Sheila has struggled to build is instantly broken. There is also the possibility that Gandia would silence Abard's strangulation, and Setuna wanted that to be it. Because as long as Gandhia remains silent, Abard won't be able to go into far-fetched behavior either. It was Setuna's idea to infiltrate the king's capital in the meantime and face Sheila and the queen.

Both that and this ended in vain when Gandia's response was beyond Setuna's imagination.

It was assumed that Gandhia would never apologize to Abard. Setuna's actions are subject to Nares' acquiescence. Setsuna was aware that Nares' admission would mean that he was confident that he would persuade Leongand to do something about it, even if it became a diplomatic matter. Otherwise, Setuna would never have come to Abad with Sheila. I might not even have admitted Sheila's going to Abard. Even if she wasn't convinced.

But if Nares admits it, it's not the story.

It was acknowledged by a military teacher who has brought many victories to Gandhia. The military teacher must have a plan in mind to open up any situation, Setsuna was convinced. So he didn't care about anything and could only concentrate on Sheila.

Whatever happens, Nares and Leongand will do something about it.

It could be sweet.

Maybe it's a sweet idea.

But to trust, that would be the case.

And trust manifested itself in a way different from what Setuna imagined.

That is the march by Gandhia to Abad.
