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

Episode One Thousand Six Hundred Nine: The End of a Dream (I)

October 15, the continental calendar five hundred and thirteen.

The line of Setuna could be seen in Leongando during the day of his arrival in Gandion, the king's capital. Leongand said he was waiting for Setuna's return, and he knew that Setuna had returned. No, he called the royal palace. Setuna went to the royal palace with Ayn-Rajar, a military teacher, and his servant Lem, and met Leongand face to face between the sights.

The ship-eyed lion king seemed relieved to see Setuna safe. The expression came after fatigue. I could imagine what fatigue it was about. It is a long way from the Dragon House to Wang Du. It was no surprise that the information obtained by Setuna and the others had arrived in the Wang capital. And it's not hard to imagine that you would be shocked by that and mentally and physically exhausted.

"I have heard the report. Negotiations with Benoagard are going well."

"Yes, on a proposal from the Benoagard side, I would like to express my sincere concern that we have decided to form an alliance"

"Oh. That's something you don't even wish for. Instead of having to fight the Knights, let's also look for cooperation. In that case, the unification of the group of small nations will also cease to be a dream. I guess so. No army is more powerful than the Knights of Benoagard. It makes our fight a lot easier just because they're on our side"

"Ha..."

Setsuna realised how energetic Leongand was when he stood on the throne and suppressed his voice. Same goes for Ein. I just kneel and don't even try to disagree. It didn't have anything to say about the atmosphere.

Between the sights, besides the summoned Setuna, there were only Allegrian-Scene and Gilveer-Gandia. The other sides will be moving around, as will the upper ranks of the army, starting with the Grand General.

Leongand turned off the smile that was deliberately floating when he saw Setuna and the others react.

"Was it still in your ears?"

"Yes."

Setuna promptly affirmed, but the words Leongand has continued to say were unexpected.

"Zaion moved out"

"Zaion?"

"Is Zaion too?

Along with Setuna, Ayn also raises a voice of surprise.

"Also...?

"We have information that Deal has made a move."

"What?"

And Leongand also seemed shocked by Ein's report. This means that the reward for Deal's move was that he had not yet reached the King's Capital.

"So you're saying that Zaion and Deal moved about the same time? If so, Vashtaria should not shut up either. Sooner or later, they'll invade more than the North."

Calm your floating hips to the throne and hold your fists. From a series of movements, it was heard that the heart of Leongando was not calm, and that it also crouched inside Setuna's chest. What does it mean that the three forces will be moved by a sleeping giant beast? I don't know that. It's not Setuna.

It means that the group of small nations itself is on the brink of doom.

"As far as we can tell, Zaion is still attacking and destroying the countries of the eastern end of the small group of nations, invading the small group of nations without staying."

"We have heard that countries like Regrana, Shazane, Sedkia and Mashga have been destroyed without any means of exchange."

"The western side also says Crude, Murdana is doomed"

Ein tells. The news about Murdana is grasping on the way to Gandia. but naturally, those two countries can't do it alone. Given Deal's power, it's no surprise that the western countries were wiped out. The three main forces can be considered as having a comparable territory and a power of war. If all that power pushes in furiously, there is no other way to destroy a small nation without exchanging.

"Ethosea, too, may soon be destroyed. Setsuna, this is your fiancée's country."

"Yes......"

Setuna had no other nod to Leongand's words. Of course, it's about Eryl Alm. Erilalum Zanar Lars-Barelwohln is not following Gandion. He stayed at the Dragon Mansion and waited to hear from Ethosea. When she heard the news that Deal had moved, she tried to return to Etosair, but stood by Ein's persuasion. Ein figured it was more logical to stay in Gandia than to be Setuna's fiancée, such as that following the logic was for Ethosea, but apparently his true intentions lay elsewhere.

"Even if you pop out here, you're just going to die for nothing"

Ruthless judgment, pitiful words.

'If it's true that Deal made the move, there's no way Ethosea can resist it. I can only hope Deal responds to the negotiations with Ethosea. But sending out Master Eryl Alm for that possibility is nothing more than stupidity. Because 10,000 Ethoseans, led by Eryl Alm, should be kept warm for Gandia.'

For him, it was more about the possibility that the army of Deal and other great forces would push against Gandhia than about whether the fatherland of Eryl Alm, Ethcea, would perish.

I don't know what Deal's intentions have been to invade a small group of nations. It is normal to see it as dominating a small group of nations and thereby conquering the continent, but it may not be.

What didn't move the army for a purpose? It's not strange to think that, Ein said. And it would be worth breaking hundreds of years of silence and just breaking the equilibrium, he sees. Regardless, it does not leave the realm of speculation and is tantamount to delusion.

Whatever the purpose and intent of the Deal, it's the fact that it has progressed to a small group of nations, but it's important. And that Deal didn't even have room to negotiate with Crude. In other words, it is only a matter of kicking or crushing a weak or small nation, and it is not worth negotiating. Even if Deal has advanced his army to the Gandhian sphere of power, it will be the same.

In that case, the more power there is, the better.

"If we were to fight the three forces, there would be no victory in the power that Gandhia could prepare, but still, there would be no victory over it."

As long as you have the power, even if you can't win, you may have eyes to survive. He didn't want to let go of Eryl Alm and the Ethosea Army to get a little or even a little of that possibility.

Setsuna spoke out, perceiving the mood of her fiancée, Eryl Alum, and asked her to talk about the Dragon House. The Dragon House is the territory of Setsuna, which should be her husband in the near future.

"Lord Setuna. If Ethosea perishes, your engagement will be null and void, but now, as your future wife, as your fiancée, I promise you the protection of the Dragon House. '

Eryl Alm gave me a strong promise.

After wondering if there was anything she could do for her, Setsuna had left Sheila and the Black Beast Squad, the Star Bow Battle Regiment, in the Dragon House. There are also Gracia and Linonclair in the Dragon House. It is good to say that strengthening the protection of the Dragon House makes sense.

Such a thing, Setuna remembered, and bit her lip.

"Oh, my God."

As Leongand looked up to heaven, he went.

"You survived Gisele Court's rebellion, reviewed relations with neighboring countries, and formed an alliance with Ethosea and Benoagard. Finally, we can finally do everything we can to unify the small nations...!

It seemed to weep, and Setuna could not help but bow her face.

"Do you think dreams end in this way?"

Of the three major forces, the Zaion Empire and the Holy Deal Kingdom moved almost at the same time and began to invade small groups of nations.

It is not a Vashtarian community that is trying to hold its finger on this. There was movement in the northern part of the continent in the near future, and there was no doubt at the outset that the northern end of the group of small States would be swept by the forces of the Vashtarian Community. The equilibrium broke. Over the centuries, the equilibrium that has continued to maintain the norm of the three major forces and the group of small continental States collapsed with sound.

Nothing can stop me anymore.

Leongando's dream of small group reunification ends.
