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

Things were getting better.

May 2.

Reports reached the Royal Palace that the Gandhian Liberation Army, led by Leongando, had kicked the Giselcoat army and taken control of Maldar. Regardless, the royal palace, full of Gisele Court tuners, would have become noisy. Because the royal palace had changed from the realm where there were only Giselcoat connoisseurs, except servants. It must have been incredible information for those connoisseurs who believed in the victory of Gisele Court and dreamed of the glory of the fruit of victory.

First, it was incredible that brigands could come back to mainland Gandia in such a short period of time. Leongand should continue to fight the rebels and the Knights of Benoagard in Maldia, and there was no way the battle could be cut up there either. What is more, it is said that the Mardia army was scheduled to be hostile to Leongand at the same time as Giselcoat's rebellion, even if it was able to destroy the rebels, when the Knights and the Mardia forces were supposed to stop the Leongan army.

Moreover, even if Gibelle and the squid had given Giselcoat and the Leongando army had managed to take off Maldia, it could not have reached the mainland of Gandhia if it had been so easy.

Even if the Leongands could reach mainland Gandhia, they were expected to reduce their fighting power significantly to accommodate those Giselcoat allies.

The Leongando army, which has reached the mainland of Gandhia, is awaited by the Lucion army of the fortress of Balsar and the Giselcoat army of Mardar. If the Leongando army, which has significantly reduced its power, is the opponent, then there is no doubt that Gisele Court's side will win - anyone who tuned in to Gisele Court thought so.

But the reality is, it didn't.

The Leongando army, which gently escaped Maldia, named the Gandhian Liberation Army and reached Abad. Though he divided his power to quell Abad's civil unrest, he replenished his lost power on the Zalwarn side and on the Logner side and easily recaptured Marsur. In the fortress of Balsar confronted the Lucion army led by Hulberg Ray-Lucion, and although Leongando went through Linonclair and negotiated with Hulberg, Hulberg did not intend to descend into the Leongando army. The battle between the Lucion and Leongan armies was intense, and although the Leongan armies were to drain their troops, they won enough to be called pleasant wins. And the Leongando army, which made strides towards Maldar, is facing and winning against the Giselcoat army led by Zelbard.

To Mardar, the armed summoners proud of Giselcoat should have refrained, but they meant that Leongand had lost the battle against the armed summoners of the Lion's Tail listed as the main force, two of whom had surrendered to the Leongan army and one had died in battle.

Zelbard, entrusted with the command of Maldar, somehow did not retreat or surrender, penetrated the Leongan army and killed more than a hundred soldiers, then said he was dead.

Like his brother's unexpected death, Gilvere felt something like it. Unlike Gilvere, who was highly qualified as a civilian, Zelbard had a gift, personality, as a martial officer. He liked to work out his body from an early age, when he was a teenager, he had become a powerful man out of Gilvale's control. Eventually, Gilvere began to learn politics, and Zelbard learned tactics, from Giselle Court. It is clear that in Gisele Court's head there was the idea of putting Gilvere in a position to assist Leongando's politics and distributing Zelbard in a position to head Gandia's military. Gisele Court himself did not say that, but it could be inferred from what he said and did at the time. Of course, Gisele Court did not utter a word about the conspiracy at the time. I guess I wasn't even thinking of committing a conspiracy or anything at the time. I have a desire to believe that. Gisele Court is a brilliant politician. It is also not a statesman of the kind who shines at the apex, but of the kind who exerts his power by assisting in what stands at the apex. That's what a person like him would have recognized himself for, and he wouldn't have questioned serving as an assistant to the king.

Since when did my father start thinking about conspiracy?

Gilvere thinks about it all these days.

When did you decide that this conspiracy would succeed?

Zelbard, caught up in this senseless conspiracy, lost his life in vain. There is no point in his death. You could have surrendered. If you surrender, or...

(No...)

Unlike other generals, Zelbard is the son of a rebel, Gisellcourt, who may not be forgiven for surrendering, and a leader who followed Gisellcourt's rebellion. You could have praised Giselle Coat, and the sin is heavy. Executions for state treason do not complain, and even if they spare death, they cannot escape imprisonment. At the very least, you'll end your life in jail.

Did Zelbard hate it?

(That's different, too)

I'm sure, probably.

Didn't Zelbard want to test himself?

The life I've walked the way Gisele Court thinks.

At the end of your life, didn't you want to make your own decisions?

I felt what I thought was close to the truth, and he closed his eyes. What floats behind his lid is what his real brother looks like as a young man. There's Leongand, there's Linonclair, there's Hulberg. There is a figure of Zelbard who was still weak in it, and he recalls that he was desperate to be liked by Linonclair. Linonclair only saw Leongando.

Memories of such a distant day.

A landscape you will never regain again.

Halberg has passed away as well as Zelbard. Only three of the five people who have lived and played with their young days have survived. And both of those three, it would be heartbreaking. Gilvere is fine. Bearable. Zelbard is my real brother, and it's hard to die in battle, but it's what I assumed. Whatever. But Linonclair, that's not how it works. The pain of losing Hulberg will continue to afflict her heart. The same goes for Leongand. He was betrayed by Halberg, who had placed his full trust in him, and had to fight, putting it all in his hands. In its heart, there is more to observe.

The battle that followed from this rebellion, too much to lose.

Gisele Court will have to pay the price.

"The castle is already soft. It's like turning back heaven and earth. Neither one of them thought that Uncle Gisellcourt's conspiracy might fail, etc. That should be Uncle Gisele Court."

He's a light-mouthed man, I can't help but think, but I have to admit, and I appreciated, the fact that such information was available thanks to him. It is because he has limited himself to Giselle Court that Gilvere is able to clearly recognize the situation in which he is placed.

"I guess. Everyone was put in Gisele Court's truck."

But that doesn't make sin lighter.

I agreed to a rebellion. He became an enemy of Leongando and an enemy of Gandia. There's no way I can forgive them.

Even if Leongand's forces could still destroy Gisele Court and put an end to the conspiracy, it would not be a complete settlement until it swept away the rebels. Keep him alive, he'll be a spark. Roots of evil should have been turned down. Cut off the roots and exterminate the hostile forces.

To do this, what should I do?

"... it's quiet here, though."

Because they're isolated.

He smiled sarcastically. A man with a cane with a large crystal sphere.

He was one of the armed summoners under Gisele Court. The name is Chartier-Fous.

He belonged to Lucion, under Gisele Court, and worked as an armed summoner. In the Battle of Fortress Balsar, he also said he saw the end of Hulberg, saying he played a part in the death fight between the Leongand and Lucion armies. He was also the one who saw Maldar fall, and it was thanks to him that he was able to know about Zelbard's death. Gisele Court used him as a treasure.

He is a user of the Summoning Army with the ability to transfer space. A subpoena armed with the ability to transfer space is difficult to summon and extremely difficult to handle. Otherwise, it is not surprising that there are more users of the Summoning Army with the ability to transfer space. Nothing is more convenient than a spatial transfer capability. We can travel from far away, in an instant. It can be used to gather information, and it can be used in combat. It was astonishing that it was an extremely useful capability and that a user of summoning arms with such capability was under Giselcoat. Perhaps Gisele Court's high ability to gather information is due to the fact that armed summoners like him were under his command.

And as far as Giselle Court was concerned, it seemed to imply that Giselle Court's conspiracy would undoubtedly fail.

Sometimes being isolated doesn't expose you being here.

"Yes."

He's lurking.

Though isolated, this room itself is under surveillance. It's not something you can normally do, like slip through surveillance and get in and out.

Chartier is in contact with Zilveer by transferring directly into this room by the ability of the subpoena. Summoning Armed Open World said the subject could be transferred to the place where the crest of the transfer was stamped. Which means it was pre-engraved in this room. Before Zilveer was shut down.

Regardless, Chartier wasn't expecting Zilveer to be locked away in this room. Chartier was just saying that he had engraved a transfer crest at various locations within the Royal Palace, one of which was accidentally engraved in a closed room in Gilvale. Coincidence. Coincidence made Zilveer attract his destiny.

"Thou hast rubbed against me when thou seest Giselcoat to be defeated. Right?

"Yes, Master Gisellcourt has a grace for picking me up, and his grace is hard to devote to the brush tongue. I still appreciate it, and I think Gisele Court deserves respect."

That's right. He's gonna tell me.

"But there is nothing I cherish more than my life, is there? With all due respect, I don't have any hair on my mind with Master Giselle."

That's why I've been thinking about the post-war period and approaching Zilveer. If Leongand wins, Gilvere will return to his former position. That's when I'm assuming Gilvale will bring him in with Leongand. Even though he was a Gisele Court subordinate and took part in the rebellion, he would be in no position to praise Gisele Court without command.

Leongand wants talent.

Even if it is an enemy, if it is powerful and talented, draw it into your allies and reuse it. That was the way Leongand did it. Because I know that talent is power.

Many of the conspirators, starting with Gisele Court, have no choice but to be executed. Anti-Leonganese politicians and so on are good examples. but the only thing that led to the conspiracy was to obey orders, no. Leongand will surely try to make the most of those talents.

More importantly, the battle that followed from conspiracy had much to lose.

You don't have to lose even what you get.

"... you deserve credit for that honesty."

"It's an honor to keep you complimented."

He shook his head when he noticed himself staring with his eyes, waking up the man who bowed respectfully. Drop your gaze on the book at hand and change your story.

"But I wonder what Gisele Court is going to do. Mardar has fallen, and the PLA led by His Majesty is now approaching?

"Yes, we expect to reach the King's Capital tomorrow as well"

Maldar, also known as the final line of defense on the north side of the Wang capital, fell. The Leongands will no longer think only of reclaiming the King's Capital. You must try to regain it with all your might.

"The key to the king's defense is Deion."

"General Deion is joining the Kruselk army, the Azark army kicked in Maldar, the Laksha army."

The army of Azark and Laksha was not enough to take. They're losing much of their fighting power with the PLA. That's where Deion joined the Kruselk side of the army, and it's not a big threat. Gisele Court gestures, etc., wouldn't even make it into the numbers.

"... even with the force, His Majesty has a winning eye. There's no need to be any force."

The PLA apparently did not inflict significant damage in the Maldar offensive. I can see how easy it was for the PLA to fight Mardar because there is nothing wrong with moving straight to the Kingdom-request.

"Still, are you going to fight"

"I don't think Mr. Gisele Court will surrender over the course of this period."

"… over this period, or"

Raising her gaze, she had a pitiful look on Chartier's face.

"Sure, you are"

If you want to surrender over this period, there will be no conspiracy from the beginning.

If you surrender, you will only be cut off.

You can't just do this and end up with acquittal.

Even if Gisellcourt's skill as a politician is spared, he can't keep it alive. If you let it live, it will be a scourge. Once again, Gisele Court may look at the opportunity for rebellion. Is it something you can do, such as forgive what you betrayed once?

Jilveer stood up quietly as he put the book on his desk.

"What are you going to do?

I don't know what to do.

Rather than, it is the truth that nothing can be done.

With Chartier, it would be possible to get out of this room. The Royal Palace is called a state of confusion. Escaping the royal palace may not be difficult either. If Chartier is going to help, it must be an easy win. But I just got out, and there's no way I can do anything. Gilvere has no power of his own, no power to fight. I just got out of the royal palace by myself, and the situation can't possibly get any better. Wouldn't it be cleverest, then, to wait for the King's Capital to be liberated, keeping it closed and caged in this quarantined space?

"Here I shall await His Majesty's victory. You do your part."

"... then, at the dawn of His Majesty's victory"

"Oh. At that time, I shall introduce you to Your Majesty"

"I hope so"

Chartier, grinning, hoisted her cane. The crystal sphere shines and his whole body is wrapped in light. And quickly, out of Zilveer's sight, disappeared.

Gilvere, left in a single room, headed to the bedroom and lowered his hips.

I had a heartbeat.

It feels like there's a pitfall somewhere, even though I'm sure of Leongand's victory.

Something, isn't it overlooked?

But no matter how much I thought, there was nothing I could do right now. Even if we have just left this room with the power of Chartier, there is nothing we can do in the royal palace where there is only a rebel. It's the same thing where I took off the royal palace. The King's capital is under the control of Giselle Court.

Nothing can be done.

I just have to believe in Leongand's victory.
