Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

It is impossible for Strela, who has never been to Ecleria, to fly anywhere in Ecleria using metastasis magic.However, only this time, it seems that we were able to leap without any problems.This is because the towns designated as "rebirth sites" by the colonists in advance are within sight from the top of the mountain range that serves as the border between Ecleria and the Kingdom of Mercury, and the magic of transfer can freely jump within sight without going directly to the scene.

Boom.....

Once it had moved to the peaks of the mountains it had come to, Strela relayed it and entered the country of Ecleria.

"Arrived."

All units, alert! Prepare for raids from around you! "

"Copy that."

The SS, which Strella brought with him, began to watch their surroundings without any hesitation.Most of them, disputed in the dark at night, are not men, but monsters.Unlike ordinary monsters, they did not appear to be armed at first sight, either because they were armed, but because they were equipped with less visible colors.

By the way, it's not like everyone was back in their original monster form.

"... I will report"

Triad's sakura, who now stood like Strela's right arm, still seemed to be transformed into a human figure.Returning to its original form, it becomes close to the plant and is unable to move freely like a human.Or maybe the fact that her original appearance was a strange tree with tentacles has something to do with it.

And above all, she was able to use Triad's unique powers without going back.That is -- conversations with the surrounding plants.

"There are no enemies around town.I'm not a soldier, I'm a child. "

"Hmm... How about the other side of the wall surrounding that town?"

"I'm sorry. There aren't enough plants around that wall to make a sound, so the plants in the town won't make a sound."

"... that's right. I heard something impossible."

"No"

Strela handles the situation in her mind as she listens to the short correspondence of the sakura.There were three purposes imposed on her.Rescuing the colonists, bringing their men home safely, and returning myself and Canopy.In order to achieve these three objectives, she assembles the operation, combining the "tools" at hand.

And one second later.

"Okay, let's go. Sakura remains vigilant here.Contact me as soon as there is a change.Those who can use Concealed Phantom Magic and Ranged Magic scatter around town in bushes, shade of trees, etc., and wait until instructed.If instructed, conduct a diversion attack toward the town wall, reposition it as soon as it appears hostile to the club, and perform a diversion again from a safe location.But you can't do it in front of the gate.There must be a lot of people coming out, like they were hitting the ants' nest. "

Got it!

"Gather here if instructed to withdraw.If you don't come back soon, I'll leave you alone.Now, disperse the diversions! "

"" Copy that! "" Startup. "

On Strela's instructions, the diversion forces move at once.There are about 20 of them. About 70% of the total.

The rest of them were to be used to escort Sakura and secure the rendezvous point.They all felt responsible for the task entrusted to them, and they were watching their surroundings with a serious look on their faces.

Canopus walks gently beside Strela, who turns his back on his men.He spoke to Strela with a voice so small that his men could not hear him.

"... who pays well?"

People who can't defend themselves will be outside of a relatively safe town.That way we can keep them away from dangerous fronts...It seemed to Canopus that Strella's plan was to put the safety of his men first.

"Well, what do you think? And your father will get along with everyone else?"

"... say something stupid."

"Fufu, I'm counting on you, Father."

Strela said so and took a step towards the darkness of the night.After that, I chased Canopus... And the two men disappeared into the darkness altogether.
