Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Outside 384, scouts and phantoms.

While grasping the speed of the march and the position of the enemy forces, he also leaves a lookout on the Marquis Marquis Marquis's side to move. Right now - we're positioning the Sirius a little rear of the interception base and waiting for it to move at any time.

The Marquis Marblanche and the four court nobles are also packed to the side of the Sirius, which is more frontline than the rear standby.

I'm a magician, so I thought there might be something I could do if I stayed with him, so he helped Alfred and the others build the magic tools, and he was consulted on the planning of the operation, etc.

The Marquis Direct Jurisdiction is well protected by the Marquis' sons and wives and the Knights.

If the Lords are to fight on the front lines, it is their duty to protect their territories and their inhabitants, and to evacuate to the Sirius was rhetorical. Marquis Malblanche and Gabriella and the others ride the Sirius in a different way, I suppose.

Anyway, it leaves a few Tiers as escorts in the direct jurisdiction, and it can also be handled when there is a need for a direct transfer from the Sirius.

Concern is assumed that… if the enemy team has made a major detour by pre-sensing the interception base, the Haiders are stationed there in anticipation of the march route so that they can cope with it. The interception position in such a case has already been quoted, so it will be somewhat cumbersome, but there is no problem. Besides, that's unlikely.

"The enemy's movement - as we expected - seems to be moving down the street, prioritizing our actions in the shortest possible time"

I nod quietly when Rosemary sees the information sent to me by Hyder.

"I'm putting in the force I've been hiding about this, and I'm afraid it's not..."

Answering that, Marquis Malblanche closed his eyes and nodded.

"The difference between the gestures of the Kings and the Marquis is usually enough."

"If you think about it by adding to the circumstance that you don't want to make the rebellion buds bigger... you think you want to prioritize the speed of response one way or the other"

"Hmm. It's hard to deal with them if you give them too much time."

Right. Is the concern in this case that exile from the country will convey the danger of Beschmerck?

If the Xanaelk side can also use enough time to make a case that there is nothing dark behind it, then they will also work against the nobles with territories in the north and south for defying the king, and use their hands to siege and attack them, but this time they can't say the same, and if they say it just from the point of view of military power, they don't have to.

The enemy estimates that even if Steven and I - Lacerta - are added as a force of war on the Marquis' side, the difference in force is historical. This is a big part of Steven's ability to inform the enemy.

In addition to the normal force on the enemy side of a certain thing, the uncertain elements also dispatch special forces such as spell soldiers and twins large and small, so I guess they think they can be dealt with in these.

Several upper levels, including Diadora, appear to be marching in dragon cages, and information about whether operational planning is also taking place in them does not leak only in the eyes of surveillance.

"Mm-hmm. Later, I'm concerned Xanaelk hasn't shown up"

And Sheila says.

"That's for sure. Are you stuck in that dragon cage... or..."

The large dragon cage that Diadora and the others rode in may contain a crest indicating it belongs to the royal family. So is Diadora, but the Kingsguards are aboard.

That doesn't necessarily mean there's Xanaelk on there that's easy to be targeted for.

Because Xanaelk himself is king but powerful. Then you can also use the method of warfare, which is disputed in the army by letting you look at it.

But self-esteem and complacency are considerable. That's why, supposedly, if you're accompanying me, you're likely in a dragon cage.

Communicate that point to everyone and create a common perception of the materials that should be kept vigilant.

"What about the line that hasn't moved from Wang Du?

Claudia tilts her neck.

"It's possible that way, though. He said something like that in his own hands, so if he hasn't moved from the king's capital, he's going to come alive against Lacerta, and he's giving orders."

Well... ideally this one doesn't rule out all possibilities, so that we can deal with them in any case.

"As those invisible parts deal with anticipation... the first thing we should deal with - these people, I guess"

"Good thing we have to get enemy units up to the hills."

Stephania snorts at my words. The Crystal Plate Monitor shows the scouts a little further away from the enemy.

The knights are on the flying dragon and on the move away from the main unit.

They have the role of seeing the presence of enemy ambushes and traps from above, or informing the main unit if there are any anomalies… even if it is unlikely, they should not take the option of bypassing them beforehand.

If the scouts have witnessed this interception base and reported it to the main unit… If the general has not seen the interception base, it is still possible to make a detour without telling them the circumstances for a reason.

By showing the main team the interception base, you can keep the enemy on the battlefield and unable to get off. In short, "I don't want people to think that I was scared and avoided, etc.," so I use the other party's face, the part related to sales vouchers.

"What are we going to do? Like knocking down reconnaissance?

Illumhilt asks.

"You can take them down, but if the scouts don't come back, they'll tell you that they couldn't get away with one, and they'll find out you're ready for the sky. I guess I just want to keep my hand down a little bit more. I'll take care of this. We need to attract some more scouts... Mallane, can I borrow a lantern?

With that said, Mallane snorted joyfully.

Receive a lantern from Mallane and lurk in the woods a little in front of the hills to await an advance scout team.

If the large-scale illusion that is planted at the interception base is turned on off, it is possible to mislead the scout team's eyes and deal with it… It is somewhat costly to keep extensive coverage of the illusion as a small number of people go and return.

So by making me think there's something before that, I think I'll go with a low-cost operation where I want the scouts to keep coming home.

Lurking in the woods and waiting, I saw a reconnaissance team flying in formation from across the street. It creates a change in the landscape visible with the illusion of a lantern that had already been activated close to a predetermined distance.

That is - a change like a soldier signaling with a flag at the top of a hill, somewhat between them, and wolf smoke rising across the hill. They all fit near the coordinates for the scout team, just a phantom from the lantern.

But the scouts who saw it clearly slowed down their flight speed. Because we perceived ourselves caught up in some sort of enemy alert network.

At the end of the day, the scouts don't move for combat purposes, and when they find what to report, they don't decide if they should go any further on their own. Wherever and what you see there, the role of informing the main unit of the anomaly takes precedence.

Do we proceed with the main unit? Let the reconnaissance team go from that point to the next again? Because it's up to your superiors to judge you there.

Therefore - even to this extent, I will return to report to the main unit. The scouts turned back the Feilongs and headed back down the street.

And wolf smoke. In the end it is meant to send signals to the rear… to this extent the enemy will only be cautious and will not be able to be information to bypass. Given the location relationship with the main unit...... if the scouts come back again, this time it's okay to eliminate them without question, although the assumption is not to miss a single one.

Because given the time lag until the scouts get ahead to a predetermined distance and return, by the time the report goes, the main unit will be in the hills. That way, we can just move for interception. Later... let's just say we keep an eye on whether the enemy receives this report and doesn't change his movements.
