Underheim Siege

"…… Sorry."

A beam of light from the 1: 1 dialogue screen lowered its head deeply toward the road.

"… I'm not trying to make sense of it or understand it. Just for the last time, I wanted to apologize."

"…… hmm."

Rod, who had heard of the crisis, was very embarrassed. I was a little angry at the unilateral notice of separation, but what good is it to slander him? First, Lord said:

"I'm sorry about Vivial."

"……."

Ray sighs deeply, looking up at the ceiling. I felt a deep emotional ripple on his face that seemed decades older.

"So now the white powder...."

"Yes. The four-state alliance is impossible, so I've decided to enter the Genozerg family."

"… I see."

Betraying an alliance and clinging to a great enemy. Leaving their allies' position, this ended the reputation of Baekje. Who will want to join the White Swallow in the future? It was practically like giving up the Temple.

Even if a day of fortune comes when you will be free from Genozerg's grasp, the White Powder will remain isolated forever, being turned away by other players.

'…… Oh my.'

Rod smiles bitterly at the rays. I felt no connection as a true ally with him.

On the other hand, I was purely surprised.

'…… I never thought a player named Sunbeam would have this side.'

When attacking Arogetsu, we said, "It is our centurion to kill Jamuka in front of Lord. 'I was the one who shouted. In all his actions, he was meticulous and did not want to suffer any loss, and now he was trying to make the stupidest and most damaging choice in the temple this week.

As an ally, I had to stop his choice. Lord opens his mouth with a heavy gaze.

"Did you promise Malek that if he asked you, you would let him go?"

"No."

"This is a 3: 3 war declared in front of all players. If you do this, no one in another country will work with the White Swan. Is that a decision you're making with that in mind?

"Yes."

Sunlight was quietly answering.

'No response. Can we go a little harder?'

Lord insisted.

"Even if this war is over, Malek will continue to make excessive demands on Viwal's life. Do you really think you can save her? Do you really think Malek would do something stupid to get the Ace back to his people? It's your wish, your delusion! Bible died in that war. Think so."

"…… I'm sorry."

He smiles in agony.

"…… I would have done that a long time ago."

I was aware of it best. What a foolish decision he's made.

Because of the incompetent king, a nation is entering the path of destruction. God who supports himself will also be pushed out of the competition that God gave him. His god, who was about to become mindful of the void for an eternity of time, was in serious condition to ask the top men for his extinction. That is why he hung himself even more. Ray had no face to face with all of this.

Nevertheless, I did not have the courage to reverse my choice. I didn't have the courage to decide her death.

"… OK."

Lord realized that rays would not change his mind.

Sunlight was basically a smart and thin player. After considering all of Susitasan and considering it several times, he was unable to reverse his decision. If so, chattering won't change your mind.

"Good luck with that. Sungwang."

In the end, Lord decided to give up the bleach.

Sunlight pauses for a moment as if to say something, then says a short word in a grumpy voice.

"... I wish you luck."

The face of rays disappeared with a notification that the conversation had ended.

"……."

It was long luck.

Lord stares blankly at the air as the Commander Window's screen disappears. Then I threw myself into the cot like I had fallen down.

"…… ahhhh! God damn it, man!"

It was late in the morning, in the tent. While I was sleeping well without knowing the world, Sunlight blew away the crystal. Sleep is gone.

'… The White Pill is leaving and joining the Western Alliance…….'

Suddenly, it became a 2: 4 situation.

After all the paintings I've made, how can things get so twisted? There was no going back as the world had imagined.

When my mental health was rarely recovered and I was dazed, I heard a 'rusty’ scheme somewhere.

What are you talking about? '

At first, I didn't care much, but I could hear the crumpling clearly.

In the meantime, Rod's head analyzes the situation and pings back. The name of the area we are camping in is the Forest of Canyons. The deputies said Lord wants to camp here, so the deputies said, "Huh, really? 'I remembered a surprised face. It is often said to be a place where lesser undead appear.

Situation analysis results.

Scary.

"Knng, why did you send Phoenix away?" '

Fluffy.

I heard it again. As soon as Lord looked back at the sound,

A white-haired woman swoops through the tent.

"Aaaaah! Ears, ghosts!"

"……?"

However, it was cute to tilt my head for a ghost. Lord wakes up, blinks, then looks forward again.

"My Lord..."

Beatrice, by the way. She grimaces at you.

"No, I'm surprised. It was Bear. Then why here...?"

"… there was a strange sound in the master's tent, and……."

She shyly clenches her hands.

"I can't sleep well on my own...."

My God, I've never heard of a harp banshee being afraid of ghosts.

"I'm fine, so stay here."

"… Really?"

Her eyes sparkle. Lord nods, and she runs to sleep on the bed.

"Cute."

Lord lay down next to her and gave her a pillow. She refuses several times, but eventually closes her eyes, leaning her head against Rod's arm. She curls up like a fetus, then turns around for a moment and gives a pleasant smile as if she's found a comfortable posture.

"Ugh!"

It was deadly cute. Lord eventually couldn't help but poke her five-year-old cheek with his finger. She's like, "Woohoo." Don't do it, "he said. Oh, my God, this beauty! Where did pretty come from?

"……."

Rod's expression, looking at her with loving eyes, hardens for a moment.

I know.

It is forbidden to give affection to shamans.

The king is lonely. In order to complete the business, even your most precious brotherhood must be able to climb the sacrificial lamb. The king's decisions weigh differently. Because there are so many lives on their shoulders, there should never be any behavior that misleads the metabolism of personal emotions.

But if Malek had captured Beatrice and threatened her, would he have had a choice other than light?

Beatrice falls asleep in front of her eyes.

I couldn't answer straight away. I didn't even want to deepen that thought.

Right now, we have to move forward in order not to let that happen. If Ray had won the war, none of that tragedy would have happened. I decided to focus on the situation I'm in.

'…… haha.'

Lord rarely sleeps.

Day 6 siege was tougher and tougher than ever for the Abyss army.

One of the great things about joining the White Sea Army was that they had a lot of arrows. Although the specifications were different from those used in Albheim, Elf Archers quickly adapted to new arrows, as they say, craftsmen don't follow tools. Moreover, the frequent siege has greatly reduced the number of infantry troops, making the alliance of the White Army, which is dominated by the Alveheim army, a great synergy.

The war began at dawn.

Flora gives the order for a gunfight. All of the soldiers who were attacking the North Gate joined the East Gate and bludgeoned through the ranks of their forces in one direction.

There was no room for hostiles to set foot just below the keep, and the arrows rained down from the sky. Alveheim's archers pour out their arrows as if they didn't have enough firepower to fire them properly, and the firewall becomes a mop, leaving nothing intact. Soldiers on the walls remained exposed to the arrows without cover.

Even if the Guardians of the Forest cling to the wall, that spot blows with blood. The arrows of Alveheim have made it impossible for the Abyss engineers or archers to contain the Guardians properly.

The Ego Gate was holding out better than expected, but he was also beaten to a siege weapon for a week.

Several times, a crisis has befallen the walls to the enemy. But every time, Tia dealt with it spontaneously and endured it like a locust again and again.

It was only at night that the Albheim and Baekje alliance retreated.

The nighttime siege was a matter of a drop in accuracy of arrows, the primary offensive, and it seemed to be a matter of avoiding health, as it was also necessary to fight the main army of Lord.

The siege ended one day and the castle was defended, but the atmosphere of victory did not change. Soldiers' morale and stamina were low. In the meantime, the total of the five sieges seemed to be more devastating.

"…… ugh. Ha."

Tia is stuck on the ground. It was not a completely manageable situation. With a sword in front of you, the soldier next to you is killed by arrows, and she, the general commander, is in immeasurable danger of life. Nevertheless, she endured to the end.

"…… What's that pose? Giant Oil Elves."

Unibelle raises her jaw, but she looks powerless.

"Pathetic, leaving the night guards to the soldiers..."

Fluffy.

Unibell suddenly falls to the ground.

"General! Stay with me! General!"

Tia raises her head and snaps at her. When the other soldiers saw it, they rushed in.

"Call the army!"

"Bring me a stretcher!"

A nearby medic inspects Unibell's condition and says he's exhausted, so rest should help him improve.

It was fortunate to be unhappy.

Unibell, the only Class B hero of the Abyss who guards the Underhaim, was barely ten. Only Unibell was able to stop the Lin and Rene sisters, and there were many places where her extensive bombings were desperately needed.

'... all because of the lack of a Maiden.'

It was not a strange situation, no matter when the walls crossed. To overcome this, Tia often had to rely on Unibel, and Unibell also obeyed Tia's demands indefinitely. Then I came to a state of exhaustion.

'… not like this.'

Tia was convinced.

Once the siege begins tomorrow, the Underhaims will surely be breached.

Tia's projected return date for Lord Lord was 8 days early and could take 9, 10 days or more. But at this rate, it wasn't even possible to survive until tomorrow. She looks up at the night sky.

'…… do I have to make a decision?'
