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

March 25th dawn.

The Maldia Rescue Army deployed troops to the south of Santorea.

The rebels and knights of Santore have already completed their troop placement, and the rescue army side has taken the form of a counterpart to it.

Santorea, although one of the exemplary cities present on the continent, had the characteristic of being long to the north and south. It was shaped because it was surrounded by mountains around the west east, and there was no other way to attack Santorea than to concentrate its forces on the south. Naturally, enemy forces will also be concentrated on the south side. It would mean difficult to attack and easy to protect terrain.

An ambush operation was also conceived to attack from the North Gate over the rugged mountains lined up between East and West, but was rejected due to the issue of efficiency. Firstly, we talked about breaking through the steep mountains is not an easy thing, and it would be easier to bump into each other from the front and push and win with the force of numbers if enough to disperse the power for it. Of course, the mere fact that it would be more damaging to bump into each other meant that the troops were based on the tactics worked out by the two Allegrian-Scene and Ayn-Rajar.

"The enemy has about four thousand knights and three thousand rebels"

Made southeast of Santore, on a small high hill, the main unit included Leongand and nearby Zephyr-Maldean, as well as Grand General Algazard Barrol-Bargazar and other military officials and the Royal SS Captains Lion's Fang and Lion's Claw. The main defense is accompanied by "Lion's Fang" and "Lion's Claw", as well as the provision of the Grand General.

"In contrast, we have roughly fifteen thousand. You're overwhelmed with numbers."

"On the number, yeah."

Leongand was dressed in silver lion armor and laying low on the floor. From the main faction on the hill, there was a good view of the formation of the relief forces deployed in southern Santorea.

In the Santore recapture, it was that Algazard would not be on the front line, but would be the guardian of the main force. At Fort Hale, soldiers on the front line needed to slap their asses, but now the operation says they don't need that. Because the morale of the soldiers is extremely high, and also because there are strong Logner soldiers on the front line. Troop placement is under way, based on calculations that Logner soldiers will do everything in their power to lose to Gandia soldiers, and that Gandia soldiers will be excited to see such Logner soldiers and not lose.

"Quality is lost, too."

"I don't know."

Leongand focused his consciousness on the battle in front of him so that he could shake off his anxiety.

At the forefront of the south of Centrea, troops are placed on the Logner side, as previously mentioned. The third regiment, the fourth regiment, is spread as a double wing, with the first regiment of the army on the Logner side leading the way. The Second Legion has been devastated in the Battle of Recondor, where the Legion Commander has been killed in battle, and operates under the command of the Astar-Lanadies. Astal-Lanadies is positioned behind the army on the Logner side, with her in the role of front-line commander.

The Gandia side army is positioned on its left and right rear, with the first and second regiments on the left, the third and fourth regiments on the right, and the fifth regiments on the central rear. Behind it follows Lucion's White Saints, Meredo's White Lilies. The squid star bowmen have not participated in the battle of Santorea because they have entered the defense of Recondor.

The mercenaries belonging to the Mercenary Bureau are in formation between the Logner and Gandia armies. "Pale Wind" and "Red Wings".

The Maldia government forces, commanding the heavenly knight Snow Zan-Emeralia, are positioned behind the Gandian side of the army, that is, in front of the main army, whereas there was a protest from Snow. How is it that government forces do not stand on the arrow in the battle to reclaim the land of Maldia from the hands of the rebels? Due to Snow's character, did he know he was going to protest fiercely, and Ein made Snow forgive, watermark, and admit to placement with his mouthful of eight hands? As for Ein, he doesn't want to borrow the power of government forces as much as he can.

The Setuna army, led by Setuna, the black spear, which should also be called the supreme force in Gandhia, was positioned further ahead of the army on the Logner side. The Royal SS "Lion's Tail", captained by Setuna, is also incorporated there. The Setuna Army breakdown is Lem, Ragna, Black Beast Squad, Sydney Battle Squad, plus Urk the Demonic Crystal doll. It was not an exaggeration to say that the Setuna army alone was likely to drop one or two of the cities because three of the Lion's Tails would be added there.

In fact, had it not been for the Knights, the Setuna army alone would have been able to recapture Santorea.

No, wasn't it possible enough for the Setuna army alone to get rid of the rebels from Maldia? Excessive force enough to make you think so was the presence of the Setuna army.

"At least the Setuna aren't losing to the Knights."

"... oh. Right."

Admit it.

The Setuna army would be able to fight decently with the Knights. I want to believe that. But the more I know about the power of the Knights, the more I wonder if that's just an aspiration. The thirteenth knight has a strong, yet peculiar power.

The knight, who should also be said to be a giant wearing armor that appeared in the running of light, did not take the light of destruction as a thing, but disappeared with Shivula. At that time, Leongand doubted my eyes. The light would have been the same light that destroyed Fort Hale and had the same destructive power. That didn't seem to work at all. Asked Arya if it might be an illusion of her eyes, Arya's testimony shows that Leongand was not mistaken in his view.

Is it the hidden ability of the thirteenth knight?

What the hell would happen if such a thing were used on this battlefield?

Leongand could not help but feel uneasy about the strength of the thirteen knights while believing in Setuna and the Black Spear.

The enemy, the Knights are out front.

Five troops were fanning out to protect the south gate of Santorea. The number of soldiers is variable. A manifestation of the fact that we have not been able to replenish the number of soldiers lost in previous battles, but that is the same thing as the Rescue Army. There's no way you can quickly replenish a lost soldier. It's not that we don't have any troops, it's a matter of distance and time. Given the rebels' reliance on the Knights, we have to clean it up as soon as possible. If the Knights have invested all their strength in rescuing the rebels, the rescue army will have no chance of winning. So I spare no time to fight in battle while I rest. Otherwise, the Knights won't know how to get out.

Thirteen knights are just powerful pawns. The more pawns you have, the more trouble you get. In just one ride, you'll be on par with your former Setuna. Two horsemen will be on the defensive side, and all three horsemen will be pushed.

"That's the five of us..."

Setuna groaned as she asked how the enemy was doing through the black spear. I don't see any rebel soldiers in the enemy line. Maybe it's on the city's defense. The South Gate is closed and there is no glimpse of what is happening in Santorea. On the walls were flags of rebels and knights, claiming that Santore was being elected by the rebels. The Rescue Army's aim is to remove the rebel and Knights flags and to launch the Government Army flag.

Each unit of the Knights had the appearance of thirteen knights dressed in pale armor. Carline Zan-Rhodes with a spear leads the troops directly in front of the South Gate. Thirteen knights featuring a Drake Zan-Aetheria in the unit next to the left and a Hua crest in the unit at the left end. Next to the right of the car line was the trident spear knight Shivula Zan-Suor, with Hulberto Zan-Benoagard on the right edge with a shield and sword. The knight of Hua would be Luveris Zan-Finwright.

"What are you so anxious about? It's rare."

"That's right."

Then you can count on me.

"Oh, I'm counting on you."

"Phew."

Setsuna felt a little relieved at how Ragna was doing as usual. As long as Ragna follows me, there won't be anything like being killed by accident. His sensing abilities don't even draw on armed summoners, and his defensive magic is powerful. Regardless, I do not intend to let it go to waste, but given that all five thirteen knights have come to kill, Setuna, they will not be able to say the same.

Anyway, the black spear is still sleeping.

I can't use my abilities.

If I can use my abilities, I can pull the distance apart and rebuild my attitude with spatial transfers, etc., but I can't help but rely on his magic more than that doesn't come true.

With that in mind, I, uh, asked him what he cared about.

"Hey, Ragna."

"What?

"Ragna is something, isn't it?

"Mm-hmm. I know everything. Anyway, I've lived tens of thousands of years."

"There seems to be a lot of ambiguity..."

"You can only keep your unwanted memories."

I can see how Ragna flicks over my head. I can even imagine his loving expression. That's how long we spend with him.

"Or so it is."

"So, is there something you want to know?

"In this world, were you a giant?

"Giants...... oh, there he is. It was many times bigger than one of our sons, but far smaller than ours."

"You're probably smaller now."

"I'm special!

"Little things."

"That's right. It's more special to be able to accumulate magic so far and remain small."

Thinking once again of how Ragna was fluttering, Setuna caught him by hand, largely with her left hand stretched overhead. A soothing sensation is conveyed in the hand. Grabbing it, Ragna didn't try to fight it, it was made Setuna, but it remained. In that case, Ragna is always quiet.

"But lately, you've grown up, haven't you?

"Hmm. I'm just trying to figure out how big it is."

"You can stay where you are."

"Why not?"

"Heavy"

When Setuna honestly gave her thoughts, Ragna seemed soggy.

"Ugh... I see. You're gonna get smaller."

"Can it be that easy?"

"Uhm."

Ragna nodded, instantly trying to make that volume smaller. A change from the size that was heavy enough to grab with one hand to the volume that even one hand could carry at its leisure. I guess the only change I completely ignored, such as the law of mass preservation, is because he is a dragon and a magical user.

"Whoa, wow"

"Hmm, wow, wow"

"So you can even be big?

"Uh-huh. Now, if you don't mind, you're not at liberty."

"Heh. That's the primate of all things."

"It doesn't creep. More praise."

"Ha ha."

Setuna lifted up the ragna and let herself bow her head.

"What are you doing?"

Faria smiled as she stared sideways at Setuna, who was lying flat-headed on her horse. The current slaughter air soothes the war. It's troublesome to lose tension, but I don't feel bad watching Setuna and Ragna interact. I guess I know Setuna is forgiving Ragna, and I know Ragna is forgiving Setuna her heart.

"You're close, those guys"

Sheila just seems a little jealous, so to speak. According to her story, the friendliness between the two was exceptional even during the Abard lurking.

"Me too! We're good friends!

"What did you do with Ragna?"

"Mmm!

Miryu seemed to inflate her cheeks with something of a protest connotation, but no one fitted it.

Turning to Setuna, he was holding Ragna back and talking about something. The eyes that look at Setuna's ragna are always gentle. Watching the gentleness was not too bad. I want to be sweeter to Setsuna. Maybe it's something I don't like about Milyu.

"So why didn't you ask me about the Giants?

"No, I just wanted to know. I wonder if he's still alive or not."

"The Titans are doomed. foolishly kill each other with the hegemony of the world."

"Heh..."

Setuna recognized that while hammering Ragna's explanation, there was no longer any chance that there was a giant in the Knights. And if so, it means that the giant knight that Leongand saw may be a manifestation of the abilities of the thirteen knights and a true power of the thirteen knights.

You have to be careful.

"But the silly thing is, dragons are the same. Killing each other, hating each other, annoying - no different from one child. No progress has been made and we are on the road to doom. That's why I'm tired of the dragon world."

"So, are you with me?

"There's that too. But first of all, don't worry."

To Ragna's unexpected words, Setuna doubted my ear. Nor do I think of it as a dialogue that is usually spouted out of the mouth of things that are fluttering as primates of all things.

"Safe?"

When Setuna asked, Ragna had eyes as beautiful as a gem and had stared.

'Cause you're sweet.'

"I guess so."

"Goodbye."

"Yes, sir."

"Oooh."

Setuna looked back as she was about to fall off the horse, surprised by the signs that appeared behind her without any foretaste. Behind Setuna - I mean, it was Lem who showed up trying to span the horse's back.

"Oh, Lem... don't surprise me"

"I didn't mean to surprise you..."

"Shh, sorry."

"No, if you'll excuse me..."

When Setuna apologized, she became more frightened.

"So, what's wrong? Senior."

"It looks like the troops are ready, so I thought I'd report to your husband."

"I see."

Ragna moves from Setuna's shoulder over her head. The soft part on the back of his leg touched his neck muscles, leaving him with a limp feel. Ragna's body temperature is extremely low.

"Ready?"

Setuna turned to the enemy army when he repositioned Ragna over his head.

The same is true of the enemy forces when troops are in place.

When the war begins, it is approaching the present.
