Ascendance of a Bookworm

Battle of Gerlach Part 1

"Strahl said he didn't see the knights of old Berkestok. It will undoubtedly be the knights of the old Berkeshtock who are in that yang dynamic battlefield"

The place where Ferdinand said the battlefield of the Yang Dynasty is the furthest from us who have just crossed the boundaries of the territory. I strengthened my eyesight and gazed. In the former Knights of Berkeshtock, which put together the capes of the Geebe Knights of Gerlach and Ahrensbach, the former Knights of Berkeshtock seem to have a higher number, and the Geebe Knights, which put together the capes of Aerenfest in one way or another, appear to be at a disadvantage.

"It is the Geebes of old Berkeshtock, fanned by Master Georgine, who are taking away the magic of Aerenfest's land. For that purpose, there is no mistake on the battlefield of the Yang Dynasty, but for the Geebe Knights of Gerlach it seems to be the main battlefield to defend the summer hall behind us."

"My adoptive father contacted various parts of Aerenfest to get them ready for battle. The Summer Hall in Geebe should also have a lot of magic equipment and more. Join us as soon as possible before the enemy drops us."

Ferdinand nodded at Matthias and my words. I agree to call it the main battlefield, not the battlefield of Yang Dynasty, or that we have to protect the summer hall.

"... but let's crush the old Berkestok Geebe platoon on the way to rendezvous. It's troublesome if we get too many of them together."

"I want to take advantage of the advantages of numbers," Ferdinand said, looking down at the growing part of red tea soil. As of now, there are four areas of red earth visible, dotted here and there. Ferdinand points to the reddish circle closest on the road to the main battlefield where the Knights are fighting. He wants to sharpen his opponent's battle power a little before they join him.

"Dear Rosemayne and Hannelore, then the two sides watch over the sky where the attack was only a short distance away. Identify changes in the war situation, the number of platoons taking away magic, and more. Rosemayne, contact Aub Aerenfest for arrival. It will be ex-post consent, but Aub Ahrensbach will get permission to use force at Aerenfest."

"Yes."

"Heishitze, we'll capture the platoon there for once. It's a time of lack of magic. I want to keep my magic alive as much as possible."

"Ha!"

One hundred and fifty mixed units of Arlensbach and Dunkelferger will be attacked against a platoon of about thirty men, mainly Geebe. Unless there is so much to it, it will prevail. Dunkelferger's blue cloak stamped out simultaneously with Ferdinand in the lead.

"Dear Ferdinand, I have a favor to ask!

Matthias raised his voice. Ferdinand looks back.

"Let me go check on Master Bonifatius and the cabin that set the trap. Graozam must be captured as soon as possible. But he is a former geebe and a civilian. I'm not a knight. Whether or not you are on the main battlefield...... I feel somewhat lurking in the woods."

"... confirmation of the trap... Permission granted, except to take covert action and confirm. It is unacceptable to bring them into battle on their own. Let me know when you find him."

"Ha! I'm afraid so."

Ferdinand, who gave Mathias permission, increased the number of Dunkelferger knights by ten for the protection of me and Hannelore, and rushed down with the Dunkelferger knights to the platoon.

"Matthias......"

Speak to Matthias, who has a sad look on his face. Matthias closed his blue eyes tightly, showing his emotional swings for a moment.

"Gerlach is the home where I was born and raised. I didn't think you'd be so badly roughed up. Besides, I didn't know it was Graozam who was directing it to be like this..."

My birthplace is ravaged by the nobles of old Berkeshtock who seek magic, turning one after the other into a land of depleted red tea of magic. It is his father, who once was the gibbet of this land, who commands it. Inside Matthias' chest would be a whirlpool of unspeakable thoughts. Anger and remorse are also transmitted from fists trembling in small pieces because of strong clenching.

"Graozam must be captured as soon as possible. Dear Rosemayne, I am so sorry to bother you, but I need you to lend me Laurenz. You will not be able to inform the knights of any other realm of the location of the management cabin in the woods."

"... raise the rot immediately if you need anything"

"I promise."

Matthias and Laurenz go down to the woods together. Watching them, Leonore called out to him, "Dear Rosemaine, let us come a little further up the air".

"Right. I need to send Ordonanz to my adoptive father..."

Following Leonore's instructions, I moved over. And, as Ferdinand told me, fly the Ordnants.

"My adoptive father, it's Rosemaine. We arrived at Aerenfest with Master Ferdinand and the knights of Dunkelferger. The current location is Gerlach. I would like to join the Geebe Knights of Gerlach and stop and capture the Knights of Arlensbach as Aub Arlensbach. Permission, please."

"Dear Rosemaine! Looks like there were other platoons still there. Some of the woods disappeared over there."

Around the same time the Ordnants were winged, Angelica's voice rose. Not just me, but Hannelore looks at you, trying to get herself out of the Schmir-shaped horseman.

"I guess there are still some platoons lurking in the woods. It is our duty to identify it, Master Rosemayne."

Nodding at the words of Hannelore, I look around the land of Gerlach by strengthening my eyesight. I don't know how many enemies are lurking.

"But that's crazy. Whether you take away magic with a black weapon, only one person can take it. Is this the only thing that allows people to accept the magic of vast tracts of land?

I also nodded at Hannelore's question. Even though we are taking it for our own land, I think it exceeds the amount of magic we can take in about thirty people.

"And what are you going to do after that, just take it away from me? If Master Georgine is going to get the foundations of Aerenfest and think about ruling, it would be a bad idea to take away the magic of the land."

Aub must fill the land with magic. If I take it so flashly, I'll have to fill all that up myself after I'm aub later. "That's true," Hannelore nodded as she looked down at the land that spreads beneath her eyes, taking a lecture on filling the land with magic as a lord's candidate.

"What are you going to do with Aerenfest, getting the groundwork?

"Still just think about ruining Aerenfest..."

When Leonore was saying that, a number of Ordnants flew in unison from ahead where the Ferdinands headed. A small white bird flies to the main battlefield and other reddish circles. Everyone shut their mouths and stared at the flying tip of the Ordnants.

"Dear Rosemaine, Seven Ordnants, I can confirm! There are six main battlefields and platoons, I'm sure."

Which would mean there's another platoon.

"Have you been able to confirm the location?

"It also looked like we flew two wings to the main battlefield. It could be at Glaozam, which commands with the Knights. It's possible we're already rendezvous."

"Dear Rosemayne, there are several repellant-like movements from platoons and main battlefields. I think I've noticed our presence."

With one voice after another from the surrounding knights, Ordonanz flew in from his adoptive father saying, "Allow the use of force".

"Dear Ferdinand, the number of flying Ordnants is seven. Two of them headed to the main battlefield. Then we got permission from Aub Aerenfest."

I fly the Ordnants to Ferdinand. A few seconds after the white bird flew away at high speed, there was an explosion called Doon and the trees were snapped down.

"... as soon as you got your permission, you became flashy"

"I can see the knights of Dunkelferger delighted to launch the attack."

"The knights of Dunkelferger are going to vandalize Aerenfest's land," Hannelore said with a little regret.

... I can't help it, but I'd like to say it's a little softer.

Ferdinand, who crushed one platoon in favor of an overwhelming number, flew the Ordnants to join them. Leaving a few lookouts over the sky, me and Hannelore head down to rendezvous.

"Wow!?

Not half the knights of Dunkelferger jumped out of the woods. Striking toward the next platoon with tremendous momentum.

"Lady Rosemayne, we will join you at Lady Ferdinand's."

Hannelore said so with a glimpse of the knights of Dunkelferger. As Hannelore saith, I will rendezvous where the cloaks of mountain blow, vine, and blue are gathered. I could see the Ferdinands surrounding about thirty captured nobles rolling around.

"A black weapon and a small chalice were used"

Ferdinand let him wave the little chalice against me. Apparently, it's what Geebe had.

"The Geebes of old Berkestok say that at dawn when Georghine got the foundation, he was going to be the new Geebe of Aerenfest"

The nobles of the platoon that is being captured and rolled have stared up at us. Brother Cornelius and Angelica move the place so as to protect me from that gaze.

"As you know, the Little Holy Grail is a magic tool that builds up magic to fill the land. Using a black weapon to accumulate the magic of Aerenfest land in the Little Holy Grail would make it a little easier when Georgine takes the foundation"

Taking away the magic that is filled with land is the same as reducing the magic of the foundation. We can also fill the land again if we use the magic that is filled with the Little Holy Grail. Once Georgine got the foundation, he said the magic of the Little Holy Grail was to be returned to Aerenfest land. That's how they were going to become geebes and nobles of the filled land and move the people of their land.

"No matter how much magic you pour into a land without Aub, the land will not be filled. Can you see the remorse and self-helplessness of displeasure rising from the people who are supposed to be pouring magic or not making sense and protecting it!?

Appeal to me that Geebe of the captured old Berkeshtock has become a new Aub.

"How much new Aub has stood in Arlensbach, and Berkeshtock is not going to be saved. Whether they put together cloaks of the same colour as Ahrensbach, it's another territory separated by boundaries."

The magic of the land diminishes and our own people begin to starve. Even if he complains to Aub that he needs more magic, it's only natural if Aub fills his land more than the extra land the royalty tells him to manage. Old Berkeshtock is really put behind him. "At the very least, as long as you stay Aub......" I can't reopen the foundations in a royal family that doesn't have a gluthris height, nor can I send a new Aub.

"Who is to blame where we have abandoned the land called Berkeshtock, which has been abandoned by the royal family and where no new Aub will stand? The land of Aub will never starve my people. Master Georgine gave us hope!

I lay down my eyes for the first time, knowing that they too were Geebe, who had managed to protect their own people, in the words of the Geebes of old Berkeshtock.

"I understand you have a reason to be you. But it is true that we are collectively taking away the magic of other realms with the cape of Arlensbach and attacking other realms. I, the new Aub Ahrensbach, cannot allow such a thing to happen. You are serious sinners. Please do not bring them to the summer hall in Bindebalt"

In my words, the knights of Arlensbach said, "Ha! Answer and move out."

"Take the Little Holy Grail away from all the Geebes who are coming to Aerenfest. Never let them take it to room. The magic filled there belongs to Aerenfest."

"Ha!"

I breathe a sigh of admiration into Georgine, who incorporates into the operation even the little chalice handed out to the Geebes without being filled and uses it well.

"Don't blur, Rosemaine. Magic has been massively stolen here, and the Knights of Aerenfest have been dispatched to Ilkner and here. Georgine is presumably close to the city of Aerenfest or is already in the city"

Ba and look back at Ferdinand's words. The faces of everyone in Lower Town and Temple appeared on my head. It must have conveyed my thoughts that I wanted to fly to the city of Aerenfest right now. Ferdinand stopped by shaking his head sideways.

"Let's finish this place first. It is Aub Ahrensbach's job to capture the nobility of the former Berkeshtock. After that, we have to get permission to enter the city at Aub Aerenfest.... Even though you've become Aub Ahrensbach, you'll be able to get in, because I and the knights of Dunkelferger can't get in without Aub's permission."

Having been told that no matter how much he wanted to help, he could not get in, he saw the current situation in which Ferdinand was being treated as someone from other territories. I'm not married yet, but I can't even enter my home without permission if I want to go home. You wouldn't think very much of Aerenfest as your place in such a situation.

... Master Ferdinand definitely needs to return you.

When I renewed my determination, the Ordnants flew in from a knight who was watching over me.

"Dear Ferdinand, the platoon that received the Ordnants began to move to rendezvous with the Knights. When you are joined by all platoons, the Knights of Geebe may be crushed at once"

Instead of the red tea land spreading, the vine-colored cloak apparently began to move towards the main battlefield. Another Ordnants flew in there. These Ordnants fly to me, not Ferdinand.

"Dear Rosemayne, it's Matthias. I discovered a shack with a broken trap. There is no doubt that Graozam is in this land."

"Has Master Bonifatius's trap been broken? Looks stronger than I expected."

Ferdinand shrugged small. It's a trap my uncle and Matthias were straining. Though he didn't think it was such an easy thing to break, he was torn by Graozam. My stomach ached like it was squeezing.

"Mathias, meet me here, Rosemaine"

"Yes."

I fly back to Matthias and Laurenz. The Ordnants flew in to be replaced.

"Dear Ferdinand, Dunkelferger has crushed another platoon"

"All right. Strahl, take command of the transport of the sinners. Rosemaine, after collecting the Little Holy Grail, we will break through the center of the former Knights of Berkestok and join the Knights of Geebe on the main battlefield."

I was never told to get my head or hands out of the Lesser Bus and to follow whoever was attacked around me without going out of sight.

"I'll do my best"
