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

After noon on July 9th, a lightly prepared line of Setuna left Hierna Grand Prison for Badran as planned. Accompanying Setuna were Lem, Ayn-Rajar and his men, and about Elina, and almost all of the forces of the war were to be concentrated on Radhura. It was from Ayn's decision that extra power would not be needed as long as Setuna and Rem were there, and he seemed to have a calculator in place to count on the eleven thousand forces joining in Badran for the Isics offense.

Erina acted with Setuna because it was considered safer to be here without a fight for a while. As for Elina, she talked about wanting to follow her master, but there she was asked to listen to Setuna. Neither did Miliu come to the matter with his mouth pinched.

There was nothing wrong on the road.

I ran into a herd of Imperial Demons, but there was no damage before Setuna and Lem, and I swept them away. Sometimes I guess it was just a little Imperial Demon.

On the afternoon of the twelfth, the carriage carrying a line of Setuna arrived in Badran.

Badlern felt like one of the commonplace walled cities, and he was impressed that only the atmosphere was somewhat different from the others. It would also be natural to be ambitious. Not only does the resident Starspear Regiment contain a thousand, but the Ethosean Army contains 10,000. Noisy air can be called a natural logic.

He was stopped in front of Badlern's gate, but when Ain honestly revealed his identity, he was not only allowed to enter the city half-heartedly, but was also led to the base of the Starspear Corps.

The northwestern part of Badran presents a picture of the military stronghold, and Setuna and the others glimpse their eyes at the noisy signs drifting around it.

Entering the Starspear Regiment base as guided, a meeting was to be held with the Starspear Regiment sub-captain, Dezelt-Scifer. He was a middle-aged man characterized by a shave and moustache, with a slightly more impressive thick brow.

"Where it's narrow, excuse me"

He seemed inconspicuous because the room that became the meeting place was really small.

"No, I don't care. Neither are we going to stay long."

"But inviting the hero of Gandia to such a narrow place is as shameful as it gets"

He continues his words in even awe.

"I would have liked to see you in a bigger room, but unfortunately, it is no exaggeration to say that this base is currently dominated by the Ethoseans..."

"Is that what happened?"

I nodded as Ein was convinced.

"Then you should have met with the Ethoseans"

"Hey... that's just a little..."

"Ha, it's a joke."

Ein laughs dry and Dezelt laughs obediently. Setsuna asked Ein in a whisper.

(Why?

(Then you gave in to Ethosea and betrayed your country, so some things will be decent)

(I see)

"So, Master Setuna, Lord Ayn, what can we do? I don't mind complaining about whatever treatment you get than you decide to betray your country..."

"If you can help me with the Isics attack, that's enough."

"Again... you drop the Isics"

"Yeah. Sure."

"Ha... ha..."

From the way Dezelt weakened with his splendid eyebrows in eight letters, I could hear that he was distressed. His decision to succumb to Ethosea's pressure and work with Ethosea Gandia must also have been quite distressing. My heart is on my face.

Then we had a little other loving public talk, but in the end, Dezelt's expression never cleared up.

"It's harder to follow Gandia and Ethosea than to keep following the Ichika royal family."

With such a word from Ein, the meeting with Dezelt was over.

"That uncle looked spicy."

After leaving the meeting room, Elina went on to whisper. I had her present at the meeting because of the decision that there was no safe place other than on the side of Setuna and Rem, and I have obtained permission in advance.

"Do you think so too, Elina?"

"Yeah. He seemed so worried."

"I'm worried...... hey"

Setsuna didn't miss Ein's somewhat subtle look. Are you up to something, or is it something you've come up with? I couldn't imagine his thoughts or anything, but I could only understand that Dezelt-Schiffer was distressed.

A meeting with representatives of Ethosea was then awaited.

As Squad Leader Dezelt-Schiffer said, Starspear Corps Base is dominated as the Ethiopian army thinks it is, and it turns out that there are Ethiopian flags hanging all over the base facility and Ethiopian officers walking around in our faces. Soldiers belonging to the Starspear Corps seem to have narrow shoulders and can see how the Ethiopian army is being favoured.

Yes, it is the policy of the Isican government that the Ethiopian army is using this base on our faces. No matter how much Ethosea is a military power, boasts an overwhelming military power, and has visited Ishika in as many as 10,000 large armies, there is no way to behave like a bystander for no reason.

There is a good reason why the Ethosean army should behave like the rulers of Badran.

"That's why it's not something I feel good about watching."

"Totally."

While agreeing with Ein, Setuna waited for the representative of Ethosea to show up.

Used for the meeting venue was a hall several times larger than the narrow room that Dezelt feared, and he even remembered how nervous the Ethosean soldiers stood there. The discrepancy with the meeting with Dezelt was so intense that Elina had been holding Setuna's hand.

There is a rectangular table in the middle of the hall, with Setuna sitting on the side of the entrance and exit, and military men standing in the back. The soldiers, dressed in serene military uniforms in colour, did not casually throw their gaze at the Setunas, but merely stood. It was a middle-aged Ethosean soldier in a deep blue military uniform who led the Setunas into the hall, and he left the room as he sat back in his chair waiting for the Setunas.

Ayn sits next to Setuna to the right, and his men line up next to him. These are the officers of the General Staff. One of the three people who was originally Ayn's subordinate and worked as a sidekick to Operation Room One, Sheena-Sandara and the bureaucrats who looked closely at him, was a tense face.

Next to her left, Elina sits down and Lem stands behind her. Elina's presence is irrespective of permission. Elina has been treated as a Setuna squire on this road.

Eventually, the entrance and exit doors of the hall opened and several people came in and out of the room.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I couldn't keep my hands off an important business."

It was the woman who went around the table and stopped opposite Setuna, saying something like that. When I was a year, was it in my late twenties? A sharp eye on his definite face made him ask that he was a born soldier, and his expression had no alarm whatsoever. Long and splendid stature shows that he is the owner of a forged flesh. There are plenty of silver threads used in Ethereal-based military uniforms, which seem to indicate her position. The brown hair is stretched to the waist, and eyes like green cylindrical balls make me think of Faria.

"No, sometimes I never thought I'd take control of Hierna Grand Prison early. It's brilliant. That's right. Sometimes you just get spoken of as a Gandhian hero. Rumor has it, Mitsuhito."

"That's... Hi"

Setuna didn't know what to reply to in the midst of tension and intimidation. but they didn't even seem particularly concerned.

"I'm late. I am Eryl Alm Zanar Lars-Barelwohln. He is the supreme commander of this Ethosea Assault Combatant. After that, get to know me. Lord Setuna."

"It's nice to meet you. I am Setuna Zenon Lars-Enjour Divgard Seidlock. I'm sure you already know that."

"Yes, I know you well. That long name and many blinding fights resonate with my Ethoshea. But apparently, Ethosea's circumstances haven't really resonated this far. The sea lions underestimated Ethosea until I came."

"Totally, unwittingly."

Such as this is a shaved man seated next to Eryl Alum. Young, but not as good as the Setunas.

"Oh, let me introduce you. His name is Kuga Sayan-Sheeda. He's a young man, but he's got to work as a diplomat. The opportunity to meet with the Gandhians is thus greatly due to his work"

"Your Excellency likes overestimation."

"Is it overrated? There's nothing more legitimate about you than me."

"My lord...?

"Yes, Master Eryl Alm is the chief commander and general of the Ethosea Assault Combat Army. Then, His Royal Highness the Princess."

"Oh, Your Highness..."

When Setsuna was honestly surprised, Eryl Alum leaked a bitter laugh.

"I still don't seem to know anything"

"Even in the same small group of nations, the distance is far apart between the center and the outer edge. I can't help but ignore Ethosea's information. Oh, by the way, I'm Ayn-Rajar. I'm a military teacher in Gandia."

When Ain introduced herself, Kuga grinned. Sharp and radiant eyes appear unusual in a soft look.

"Lord Allegria wants to talk to you."

"What's with Mr. Allegria?

"I just need you to discuss the details with Lord Ayn,"

"I see, Mr. Allegria."

Ein accidentally spilled a grin on Kuga's words.

After we finished introducing ourselves to each other, the story moved on.

Eryl Alim was pleased to strike her hand when she told her of the purpose for which the Setunas had come to Badran and told her that the battle at Hierna Grand Prison had ended in less than half a day. Eryl Alim seemed to be a samurai figure more than she looked and wanted to hear about Setuna. but when blocked by Kuga Sayan-Sheeda, he also looked a little grumpy. Kuga may have been whimpering inside.

"Gandia has a policy of destroying squid, so you don't mind, do you?

Eryl, the only question Alim has been asking is after he was told to do so by Kuga.

"Is that the condition of the alliance between Ethosea and Gandia?

"That's right. My father was a difficult man for a long time. I've never forgiven anything like betrayal or turning over. Even if it had unstoppable circumstances to stop, even if it had no choice but to live, there was no forgiveness. Even if we won because of that betrayal, we killed the traitor after understanding it. It's nervous."

That explanation of Eryl Alum made me wonder if dating a country called Ethosea would be an easy one.

"As far as I'm concerned, I don't think it matters what Ichika does in itself. Even if you silenced the squid and formed an alliance with Gandia, there is no problem. There's probably not enough sea lions. The problem is the father king of Ethosea. Damaging Father King's mood could even break your alliance with Gandia. I believe that the alliance with Gandhia is the key to accelerating the reunification of this small group of nations."

Ein has taken a glimpse of Setuna.

"The Gandhians, because they think so, are going to tie it with us?

"Yeah, you're right. Small group unity is the only means of antagonizing the three major forces. And to do this, Ethosea and Gandia join hands is the key"

"Exactly. But I do not want to rush the alliance for it and undermine the temper of the difficult Father King. The Father King is not against the very alliance with Gandhia. No, rather, Father King even has thoughts close to admiring Gandia. Nothing makes me happier than an alliance. But leaving traitors like squid in the wild for that is likely to touch my father's wrath"

"That much...... is it?

"Even what has benefited our country, it is the Father King who kills it solely for the reason that he has betrayed his country. If we knew that Ichika had betrayed Gandia knowing what Ethosea's purpose was and was trying to exploit Ethosea's military might, we might be furious. As a result, if we consider the possibility of even exhausting Gandia, who pardoned the squid, the squid will only be destroyed"

Eryl Alim told her to chill and spit. It is well understood that it was counted on as a force against Gandhia and that it could not be used.

"It's a story that would have fit round if Ichika hadn't betrayed His Majesty Leongand in the first place. That the foolish behavior of the squid led to it. I don't care."

"Yes, even as we are, we have no hesitation in destroying the squid. You just have to perish, such as a nation that grows on His Majesty's generosity."

"Let's keep our hands on that, shall we?

"Of course. Radullah will fall in a few days, and if so, just drop Isiks and the fight will be over. Meredo will drop the rest of the city on his own."

When Ain ran out of words, Elim Alim nodded as convinced. And open your mouth.

"Let's help Isics attack. You have to let them pay for what they tried to use for their ambitions, knowing our purpose."

"Thank you for your cooperation."

"What, we're going to make an alliance. It's only natural to cooperate. More importantly, if you stand on the same battlefield, you won't be able to worship the Battle of the Heroes."

"My battle..."

"I hope so, Lord Setuna."

"We will do well to meet your expectations."

Setuna finally answered that as Eryl Alim's eyes seemed to be burning to expectations.
