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

Episode Two Thousand Three Hundred and Forty: Northern Peace (V)

Charlotte-Morgana rarely woke up early in the morning only because the outdoors were noisy. Usually still asleep at a time when she was beaten up by the noise outside, she wanted to hold her head to the grumpy scrupulousness of her face in the mirror. Waking up is always this. The weight of my head is making me create a tannic surface. Or it wasn't like herself to force her to make a smile, and she quickly changed clothes and left the room with a bitter face.

When I left the room, I saw her direct reports holding their heads about what to do. I guess I was worried about whether I could wake Charlotte, or if I should just wait for her to wake up. My men know how grumpy she was when she was forced to wake up. So I guess we were having an argument in front of the room that neither oh nor this was the case, but he never imagined that would bring a grumpy awakening to Charlotte. And Charlotte opened the door to the room so his men noticed this one and forced him to strengthen his face.

"Sha, Master Charlotte!?

"Oh, did you wake up!?

"If it's all that noise, let's get up even if we don't like it"

"Ha... this is rude..."

When Dina-Sealm adjusted his posture like he was frightened, the other two learned from it. Charlotte's direct reports are, in other words, the users of swordsmanship who are near Sir Kenbu and who are not ashamed of his name. Dina-Sealm, Theon-Acker and Dalia-Faron. They were all well-known swordsmen in the Order of the Sword Emperor, and since the days when Charlotte was called the Third Son, she worked as her hands and feet.

"So, what happened? Did something happen to you that you had to tell me as soon as possible?

"Yes. As a matter of fact, earlier, I peered into the room to wake up Master Setsuna, but no matter how many times I called him, he didn't respond, and I took a peek indoors, and he didn't look like Master Setsuna..."

"What!?

"There's this kind of writing on my desk..."

"Lend it."

Charlotte forcefully snatched the piece of paper Dina offered and took a closer look. On a piece of paper, in the common language of the continent, "I'm going to Niadar. Setuna," she wrote, "the moment she finished reading the letter, she lost much of her words of amazement and shock.

"So what should I do..."

"I'm the one who should ask you about Charlotte."

"No, 'cause that's normal."

With Theon and Dahlia's exchange on her ass, she glanced back at Dina in awe, and Charlotte handed her a piece of paper. Turn to her properly and tell her quietly.

"I'm talking about Lord Setuna. Going to Niadar would mean nothing more than going to cooperate with Niadar's recapture operation. Then there's nothing to worry about."

The Niadar recapture operation was outnumbered by the Western Imperial Army by the Eastern Imperial Army with no chance of losing. But whether we could win or not was unknown. Niadar was a hilltop city and fortified the hill itself. It may be a requirement for northern defense of the Western Empire, and as long as Niadar was falling into enemy hands, it was no exaggeration to say that there was no relief in the north. If the Eastern Imperial Army focuses on Cage Castle, it may also be difficult to beat in the Niadar Repossessed Army, which is somewhat more than the difference in force. And the longer it takes, the worse the situation gets. Cage Castle is only because reinforcements can be expected, and reinforcements by the Eastern Imperial Army are heading north, as can be seen from the fact that Cage Castle warfare was also about to take place in Nearfellow.

We must not spend much time recapturing Niadar.

If you want to recapture all the cities.

Charlotte's strategy was to first recapture Niaferou, who had become thin by gathering enemy forces in Niadar, and then attack Niazuki and Niadar, and he had no intention of recapturing Niazuki or even Niadar in this battle. That might have been possible because there was a line of rendezvous in Setuna, and because of some changes to the strategy.

At any rate, Niazuki and Niadar also want to be reclaimed and the northern part of the Western Empire kept calm. The sooner that is, the happier it will be for the country, and the emperor Niewehein will be.

"We just have to wait for Lord Setuna's report. I'm sure you'll make it."

Charlotte was no longer feeling any anxiety when it came to his strength, seeing Setuna play in the Battle of Nearfellow. That would also greatly affect the fact that his appearance and vocal qualities are her beloved Niewehein herself. There is no doubt that he, whom Kneewehein called the same presence, is a bearer of spirituality similar to Kneewehein. And I have strength. Then all you have to do is believe him and wait.

He drove the troops of the Eastern Imperial Army, caged in Nearfellow alone, into retreat.

Even though Niadar will not be his single-altar, his participation in the war must make Niadar's recapture an expeditious one.

Such certainty lightened her sleeping thoughts.

"I heard about the wind rumors, is it true that the Admiral isn't here?

"Oh, it's true. He's on his way to Niadar now."

It was after noon that Esque-Soma had asked the question.

Charlotte was on the move inside Niaferow Station, and Esq, who was garrison with the "Cloud Gate", suddenly called out. Apart from them, there are Western Imperial Army soldiers sweating in the spacious squad. Yesterday, when she said the battle had just ended, she answered Esq's question with satisfaction to the likeness of a Western Imperial Army general who would not forget to prepare for the ensuing battle.

"No, it's already on, and I might be in the middle of a recapture operation"

"... what do you mean, not at all"

I don't understand Charlotte at all that Esq is outraged.

"What are you unhappy about?

"Then you're unhappy. I can't believe you just left me alone. Whatever it takes, I'm sorry."

"I didn't mean to interrupt."

"I'm interrupting... Oh, well, thank you, I seem to have distracted you..."

Apologizing as Esq perceived something was a third party who suddenly came into the conversation, and Charlotte was so surprised that the moment she turned her gaze to see what it was, her head turned white.

"What, General!?

"Lord Setuna!?

"Hey, I'm back."

It was one of Setuna-Kamiya, whomever he may be, who has told him in an extremely mild tone, in his usual outfit, dressed in a unique black outfit, in a circle of discourse. We all have no idea where or how it came from. If there was no sound, there was no sign. It's as if it suddenly appeared, and I can immediately imagine that it actually is.

"Hey, no, hey, bye."

"I thought we were headed to Niadar."

"The recapture of Niadar is complete. Not a single Eastern Imperial Army that occupied Niadar returned to Eastern Imperial territory. I'm back here. For once, I've greeted the commander of the Western Imperial Army, but that's everyone and him. You mistook me for an emperor."

Setsuna laughed so much. Charlotte and the neighbors, the guys at the Cloud Gate, had to look at it blindly.

"Yep..."

"Isn't it too soon...... as much as you want"

"What's faster? Especially if it's a fight like this one."

"That's true, though."

"Well, that seems to be the general. No, it is..."

Under such circumstances that even Esq could not say anything, one Setuna kept smiling.

Northern Ping became so light.

Reports of Niazuki's recapture yesterday have arrived in the morning, and it goes without saying that Niaferou has boiled down with it. There was nothing to worry about the delay in the recapture of Niadar, but it was more within the assumptions than the original, and recapture even of Niazuki was the unexpected event.

And then there was the recapture of Niadar.

The effects of a line of rendezvous in Setuna were extremely strong for the Northern peace to have ended much earlier than Charlotte had assumed.

She names Setuna as a special medal for Northern peace and so states in her report to the Imperial Capital.

This is not the end of the Battle of the North.

It only brought the situation of the Eastern Imperial Army advantage back to unfavourable conditions.

But, as it were, it is unlikely that the Western Imperial Army would have continued to be pushed if it had evolved in a situation of Eastern Imperial Army dominance, and this battle would never have been meaningless.
