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

Episode Two Thousand Forty-Eight: Nine Tails of White Hair, Again (3)

Malwales.

Setuna is also well aware that it is a city in the northeast on the Zalwarn side and that, during the Zalwarn war, it was able to be controlled by the activism of Cain-Vivre and Ur. Naturally, it was also a city that was governed and operated by the Gandhian government after the Zalwarn war and later heavily used to get around with the Kruselk side. Setsuna herself, I remember using it when I went to Said Rock, the third territory.

In the fold of the final war, he said, it had been temporarily placed under the control of the Imperial Army by a skirmish that arose with the Imperial Army immediately after the “Great Destruction”, although it had been dominated by the Vashtarian Army, which had avalanched from Abad. But the reign of the Imperial Army did not last long either.

Because the Nine Tails ravaged the Imperial Army.

Although the fox of the Nine-Tailed White Hair was not a step away from the Dragon Mansion shortly after the “Great Destruction," he said, seeing that the situation had settled somewhat, he ran endlessly across the entire Zalwarn side like an electro-optic fire. And he began attacking all the hostiles of Gandia, who were supposed to be the ruling power on the Zalwarn side. It means that the remnants of the Vashtarian Community, etc. were so fiercely attacked that they no longer had shadows or shapes, and that they were finally to disappear completely from the Zalwarn side.

The Imperial Army, which ruled Malwales, is no exception.

Before the overwhelming power of the Nine Tails, he was repelled without any subtle imperial army or skill to exchange, and forced to abandon Malwales. As a result, not only Malwales, but all the cities on the island's Zalwarn side returned as Gandia territory.

The Silver Ethereal Horse Knights and the Dragon Palace Guards Most Squadron led by Eryl Alm-Etocea entered Malwale only a short time ago, when the Provisional Government, which sensed the anomaly on the Kruselk side, asked the Silver Ethereal Horse Knights, the highest force of the Provisional Government to prepare for the unforeseen, and the Silver Ethereal Horse Knights alone, sometimes left anxiety, a carriage accompanied by the Dragon Palace Guards Most Squadron.

Earlier fights - a substitute I can't even call them - are said to be the first fights they have had since their arrival in Malware, and what is happening on the Kruselk side has yet to be grasped. But he's pretty sure from the way the Imperial Army is in a hurry that nothing seems to be unforeseen.

"Is it true what's going on with Kruselk?

"Yeah, I thought that was for sure."

Shriw nods as she puts the tea utensil back on the table.

A room at the Gandia Army Operations headquarters in Malwale. In addition to Setuna and Shillyu and Eryl Alm, the Gandhian army Zalwarn side army First Legion quantity Mirdi-Habok and the same deputy chief, Kaeon-Aud, were present in the room. They were both fierce men who survived the fierce battle of the final war and looked tougher than they had been before.

"Depositing Malwales, we are constantly monitoring the movements of the Imperial Army, which dominates the Kruselk side. This is the closest point in the battle against the Imperial Army, and we must be Gandia's eyes."

Something like that, Caion-Ode. As both Mildi and originally Zalwarne, he seems to have tried to be an apprentice to Nares and Ayn-Rajar, aiming for a military mentor. But Nahless refused vegan, and Ein refused to take a disciple either, saying he had no choice but to study on his own.

"Imperial troop movements caught in the eye of that surveillance," he said.

"Yes, thank you, people of the Empire, there are signs of pushing this side."

"On Zalwarn's side?

"Check this out first"

Shiryu spread the pieces of paper he had removed from his own pocket on the table. A piece of paper is a large square piece of paper, which, if you look at it, cuts off part of the continental diagram. The cut part contains a portion of Abad in addition to Zalwarn and Kruselk.

"Is this the whole island?"

"As for the Kruselk side, it was based on the testimonies of those who have fled from there, not definitive information, but this is definitely the case with Zalwarn"

The Zalwarn side is a distorted trapezoid on the map, with the Dragon House in the northwest and Malwayr in the northeast, Bahandar in the southwest and Smada in the southeast being the complete state of Zalwarn. But on the map showing Zalwarn's present, cities such as Reuben, Bahandar, which was southwest of the Dragon House, have been erased by slopes and cut off by “great destruction”. Likewise, the area of Sumaata in the southeast bu is obliquely erased.

If you look to the north of Malwale, only the city of Sentier, southeast of Abad, is on the map, and the city of Abad, which is oblivious to it, does not appear to exist on this island.

I can tell from the vague information that the current situation in Kruselk seems to exist almost entirely on this island. There are all the cities that lead to the central cities of Kursale, Zenokis Fortress, Rancid, Gordovan, and Said Rock. I don't have to wonder if things like Kruselk are more realistic than Zalwarn Island. Of course, if the Zalwarn side considers it the subject, it is inevitable and problem-free to call it Zalwarn Island.

"At the turn of the war, the Imperial Army, when it took control of the Kruselk side, advanced a large part of its forces towards mainland Gandia. All that remained in Krüselk was 20,000 troops, which, from the full force of the Imperial Army, is only a tiny one."

"Well, I guess so"

Even 20,000 is equivalent to more than one country in a small group of nations, but the three major forces, starting with the Zaion Empire, each required a total of more than two million troops. From two million, it is only one in a hundred, such as twenty thousand, and it can be said to be insignificant. But the question remains as to why much of that 20,000 remained on the Kruselk side.

At the end of the final showdown, the three forces toured the ruins of Gandion, the king's capital of the "Promised Land", and were about to hit each other as hard as a grand showdown. In the meantime, it is difficult to understand the decision, albeit about 20,000, to leave some of the force in Kruselk.

"The total power of our provisional government, however, is around six thousand. It would have been so difficult even to recapture all of Zalwarn without the help of Master Nine Tails. The reality is that we don't have enough power to maintain a state of war with the imperial army of Kruselk."

"I also tried to recapture Said Rock, Lord Setuna's territory..."

Eryl Alm dropped her gaze in a shameless manner. Perhaps she was the one who suggested the recapture of Said Rock. It seems regrettable because it failed. I wonder why Said Rock is first because it was Setuna territory, as she said. That's what her thoughts convey, too, to Setuna.

"Unfortunately, the Imperial Army's power is so powerful that it is finally time to protect the Zalwarn side. It is also the first time it has been possible with the protection of the Nine Tails."

"Hmm..."

"Nevertheless. For the past year or so, the Imperial Army has even given up its invasion west of Malware."

"Why again?"

"As earlier, I guess the Imperial Army has been able to handle how quickly Kyouo responds to a surprise attack on Malware."

Shrew roared low with feelings similar to fear on his voice. I didn't know he was going to want to roar, and Setsuna thinks it's an inexorable story for the Imperial Army to give up. In front of Nine Tails' overwhelming reaction and overwhelming power, the Imperial Army's mighty power doesn't make sense either. The tail blow carried out from all those giant bodies, even the Imperial Army, which possesses a number of armed summoners, is as good as one. I just have to be blown away before I can deal with it.

"So for the past year or so, the Zalwarn side has been at peace."

"It's been a year since I thought it was quiet before the storm, so I clapped it out."

Mildy went, holding hands behind his head.

"I never thought that peace would last forever."

His sarcasm may also mean ridicule of himself. I have no idea why he's mocking himself, though.

Isn't there something only the final war and those that survived the "great destruction” know about?

When it comes to why I thought that, it's because the knights of Benoagard went through my brain. Whether it was Rowfa Zan-Seivas, the thirteenth knight, Bain Belbail Zan-Lanacourt, or Luveris Zan-Lanacourt, everyone had something somewhat complicated.

Anyone but Setuna on this occasion may have the same pain as the knights.

Setuna, who had not experienced “great destruction," did not know.
