Dream Life

Episode 57: Postwar Processing

Tria history October 25, 2018.

The Lockhart family won over 10,000 large armies led by Vlad Varonos, King of the Undead.

The claw marks of the fierce battle, which spanned five days, although victorious, were great, and the vigilantes fell asleep in large letters due to accumulated fatigue, or most of them sat down.

Father Masaias and squire head Walt Vassel were directing the non-combatants, distillers and housewives, to house the wounded.

Luna, who caused this battle, but she closed her mind completely. I spoke to my sister-in-law Rosalee, who looked after me, and she stopped even eating as the battle intensified.

"Probably, but I think she realized she was the cause. You didn't want to hear the battle a few times, because you blocked your ears."

It is not strange to think that if the villages where you were born and raised are wiped out and the villages where you came after only another year are attacked, the cause is you.

I was heading in a good direction a little bit at the corner, but now I'm back in the shake. I'm sorry about this and I can't help it.

I'm just eliminating the enemy foremen of the gods in this battle. Of course I am not willing to fail to be vigilant, but I think it is okay to assume that the mission of protecting Luna has been fulfilled.

(There will be no such thing as those enemies in the front seat. You just have to take your time leading her ahead. You shouldn't have to hurry......)

When the battle was over, I was slowly trying to heal Luna's heart wounds.

I've been coming to the main entrance with Liddy since early morning.

The main entrance was the most heavily attacked place in the last battle, because it had many wounded out. The seriously injured had been transported to school and had completed their treatment, but the less urgent minor injured had to wait for the order of treatment in their possession. We've finished treating the seriously injured and our hands are empty, so we can finally hit the slightly injured.

After 8 a.m., reinforcements, the Royal Kaum Army, arrived.

The commander of the Royal Kaum Army is Baron Isador Roxbala, who escorted Ulrich and other blacksmiths and the queen of patience in April.

The baron seemed unable to hide his surprise at the amount of undead wreckage near the main gate, but when he found his father, he ran down the horse and over.

"Sorry I didn't seem to make it"

My father takes the baron's hand with his head down.

"Thank you for coming to the reinforcements"

The Baron said, "That's a great victory. Congratulations," he said, once loosening his expression, but seeing a vigilante crouching with injuries and fatigue, turning it into a serious look and offering help.

"Say anything we can. We also bring healers..."

The Royal Kaum Army is home to a thousand and five hundred men from the Knights of Black Steel, and a total of one thousand and seven hundred mercenaries and adventurers each summoned urgently. The regular army also has a large number of healers and is entrusted with the treatment of minor injuries.

When my father requests the dispatch of a healer, he heads to the mansion with the Baron to discuss his future actions.

"Zach, come with me," he said to me.

Following consultations at the Mansion, it was decided to ask the Royal Kaum Army to provide security for the village and to dispose of the remains of the undead. I am concerned about the remnants of the enemy, but I don't even think there is a large separate task force, so I decided to keep my perimeter on alert and prioritize the handling of the undead, which is a pressing issue.

wreckage of the undead, but had not yet finished collecting the Demonic Crystal Stone, and in some cases it was possible to revive it as undead again. Of course, powerful demonic crystal stones such as Vlad the King of the Undead, the Necromancer (Rich), and the Knight Without a Neck (Durahan) are recovered as a top priority.

Besides, even though the skeleton of bone alone was the subject, there were quite a few corpses of ghouls that could have been the source of the plague. I would like to process this as early as possible, but since there are too many, the question is how to dispose of them.

I have not decided on the final method of disposal, but in the meantime, I asked to have the demonic crystal stone recovered and the remains of the undead pulled out of the moat.

Under the command of Baron Roxbala, the Royal Kaum Army began operations simultaneously. This reinforcement appears to have been selected among the main force of the Royal Army, the Black Steel Knights, with a highly skilled and distinguished force, without major disruption, and the orders will be executed.

When they learned that security by the Knights had begun, the villagers gradually began to return to their homes. This time fighting is taking place only around Kanga Hill, off north of the village centre, and no damage has been done to the village's main settlements. But his house seemed worried, and the men who could move fluttered toward the house.

Around 11 a.m., a knight who was on perimeter alert reported to his father that new reinforcements had arrived.

"Looks like the adventurers and blacksmiths of Periclitle. Shall we?"

My father calls my brother and gives instructions to invite the adventurers in.

"You must have come to help us. Show me carefully."

In about half an hour, a group of about 300 people came to the meadow between Kanga Hill and Kitaga Hill.

Looks like a hundred adventurers and maybe two hundred Dwarf blacksmiths in the distance.

Immediately a representative of the adventurer and the blacksmith came to the mansion.

I don't know the adventurer's representative, but the blacksmith's representative has always been a known Geisel Hale.

Geiselhale rushed over as soon as he found me.

"I'm glad you're okay," he says, taking my hand. I shake that hand back, too, to thank you, but Geiselhale looked around,

"Is Lord Scott safe, too?

Yes, I asked anxiously. I still seem to be concerned about the safety of their “patriarchs”.

"Of course all the craftsmen are safe. And we're running out of Scotch vaults."

That's what I say and laugh at, but GeiselHale doesn't break his serious look.

"I'm glad everyone's okay. If there's anything we can do, say it. Adventurers bring good people even in Periclitle. It's not like there's any other demons out there."

They even brought brilliant adventurers to Periclitle, the city of adventurers. I hope I haven't taken forceful measures, but I haven't heard about it because it's going to be a snake when I hear about it.

My father and brother, I represent the Lockhart side, and I will hold consultations with six more, Peram Drake, the representative of the Adventurers of Geiselhale and Periclitle, plus Baron Roxburgh.

"If you're the brilliant adventurers of Periclitle, you should have them scouting the East Forest from tomorrow..."

It is unlikely that the undead remain in the eastern forest, but there are few cases where so many undead have struck. We were to have it surveyed by hanging from the East Forest to the foot of Aquila for three days from tomorrow to make sure it was complete.

Adventurer's representative Peram is a human male in his mid-thirties, just over a hundred and sixty centimeters tall and smaller than Liddy and Mel. But that gap free doing makes you feel like a second-degree adventurer.

"This is our first time around here, but we are also used to deep woods east of Periclitle. If there's any trace of the undead, I'll find it. There are plenty of fees out of the blacksmith's guild. Hahaha!"

Speaking from Peram, who laughs lavishly, the adventurers from Periclitle are dominated by fourth-level adventurers called veterans, and include many more first- and third-level awesomeness.

They say the Periclitle branch of the Blacksmith Guild collected twice as much gold as normal. Many adventurers are also motivated to sell favors to blacksmiths.

I wondered how much it would cost a day to hire all these adventurers, but I'm not asking because they're going to hear horrible numbers.

The blacksmiths from Periclitle were to be asked to help with the handling of the undead carried out by the Royal Kaum Army, in addition to the care of the weapons of the vigilante carried out by the Beltrams.

Nearly two thousand people work hard to process the undead, but more than 10,000 wreckages were difficult to collect just.

That day was all I had to do was pull it up from the moat.

After conducting reconnaissance around the village, he decided that there was no residual undead force and that his father did not need to summon a vigilante.

Night vigilance will also be provided by the Royal Kaum Army, which has allowed the Lockhart family and the Rasmore Village Vigilante to sleep slowly for the first time in a long time.

By the way, I hear the Geiselhaels were staying at the training institute and celebrating with Beltram and the others. I got a voice, too, but I'm just saying no.

The next morning, the adventurers of Periclitle entered the East Forest with the dawn.

The Rasmore Village Village Vigilante is supposed to take a day off today. Rather than that, few Lockhart family squires, anyway, were vigilantes and could move properly. In addition to physical fatigue, the spirit was more exhausted because he continued to fight under extreme tension.

Even at the Lockhart family, my grandfather and Nicholas remain on the floor, and Beatrice and Mel also look tired without losing the influence of their mental attacks. Sharon was recovering from the loss of magic and was feeling better, but he was in the room to compile a record of the battle.

I was also experiencing mental fatigue along with physical fatigue, but I had to do the undead processing, and I can't slow down. However, the wounded have all been treated and freed from their role as healers.

In the meantime, Scott and the other distillers had started working at the distillery in the morning in order to resume operations. Since it has been left alone for more than five days, malt "malt" in the made wheat "malting", malt (grist) in the saccharification of the planting tank (mashtan), fermented grate (wash) in the fermentation tank "washback", etc. are all wasted, and must be done from the cleaning of those installations. Scott had zeroed out that there was no way to resume operations on the enormity of the work.

"Can't you ask for help with the distillery," he immediately acknowledged with a full grin to the Geiselhales, who are taking care of the vigilante's weapons.

"I've almost finished taking care of my weapons. The Beltrams will be enough later. And the distillery is more motivated than cleaning up the shady undead. There are few opportunities to help Lord Scott. Gahahahaha!"

With that said and laughing out loud, the Dwarves were led by three distillation heads, Scott, Brandon and Calvert, who left with joy.

The Dwarves leave it to Scott to see what's going on with the undead processing.

The remains of the undead pulled from the moat had been sorted into skeletons and ghouls and demonic crystal stones had been recovered. The ghouls' bodies have already begun to rot and the stench is great.

I feel guilty about letting Kaum's soldiers do such a task, but Ghoul alone is superior to a thousand, and given how we should handle so many bodies, it goes down the road.

Even if it burns, fuel is a problem. Firewood is tough just to prepare, and even me and Sharon's magic don't know how many days it will take. Even if you bury it, it can cause groundwater contamination in poor places, and it doesn't feel good to have undead bodies buried near first.

(I guess me and Sharon will have to work hard and burn it. If the burning cusp is buried in the west forest, you don't have to bury it so deep to worry about contamination...)

The undead intends to incinerate and dispose of everything, including skeletons. The magic of high firepower has the magic of the volcano Volcano, which you can handle with this. Ghoul should also be more prone to burning than he is now, because if he pulls out the Demonic Crystal Stone, it will weather. Worst of all, if you keep the hole deep even in the way it burns halfway, it will have less impact.

When I ask my father to explain my plan and give me permission, I ask the commander of the Royal Army to take me to the West Forest.

I myself went into the west woods and dug a hole in the place where I opened it. The place was decided close to the entrance to the village with few big trees.

It took four days to dispose of Ghoul's body. I dig a hole and a Cowm soldier throws a ghoul in. And it's a simple task for me and Sharon to cook it all at once with the magic of the volcano Volcano.

As expected, the decay stops when the demonic crystal stone is removed, and Ghoul's body dries up like a mummy. As a result, the stench, which was terrible, was weakened, and it would not have bothered me so much if I had been careful when baking and even the wind direction.

October 29th.

The processing of Ghoul's body was completed, leaving only Skeleton. As for the skeletons, I'm just going to burn the bones and dump the ashes in the woods, but there's a lot of them.

I don't need to rush the bones too fast because I don't have to worry about corruption, but I want to carry them while I have manpower. If you carry it, you can dispose of it there slowly.

When Ghoul's treatment was finished and he tried to return to the mansion, he felt signs of a large number of people.

I knew who was coming. It was the Dwarves of Ars who arrived.

Yesterday, a decree from the Kaum kingdom conveyed information that Ulrich and other blacksmiths affiliated with the Blacksmith Guild were on their way to the village.

The information that the village was safe had been passed on to them two days earlier, but they thought about the possibility of further enemies and didn't turn back.

It is true that until yesterday the adventurers of Periclitle were exploring the eastern woods and the possibilities could not be denied, but there is no anxiety about the defense of the village due to the fact that there are also elites of the Royal Kaum Army.

I was thinking lightly that you might want to feel relieved to see our faces.

■ ■ ■

Time goes back two days.

Around 3 p.m. on Oct. 27, the Dwarves, led by Katrina Brentwood, Queen of the Kingdom of Kaum, and Ulrich Drexler, chief craftsman of the Blacksmith Guild - with the addition of non-Als Dwarves - had passed through the traffic bulkhead Barbezy of Als Street, reaching a position of one hundred and twenty km (Kimmel) to the village of Lasmore.

Until then their marching speed has exceeded seventy kimmels per day. Even cavalry heavy troops would be slower than this, but they are on foot and their insanity stands out.

A Black Steel Knights early horse passed in front of a group of dwarves. The decree was running a horse to convey the news of the Rockhart family's victory to the king's capital, but he noticed a carriage bearing the royal crest and stopped.

When the victory and the safety of Lockhart family officials are reported to the queen who came out of the carriage, the occasion is wrapped in a whirlpool of joy.

On her knees on the spot, the queen deeply drowns her head in tears, "Well, you're safe... thank the gods". It is told that the figure was like that of the Virgin.

Next to it Ulrich and the others, who heard the news of the victory, raise a similar voice of joy to the roar.

"" Sieg Scotch!

With that word, information about the victory of the village of Rasmore is instantly passed on to all Dwarves.

Thousands of dwarves in the deep woods say, "" Sieg Scotch! "" I yell. The birds, surprised by that voice, fly in unison, but no one cares to stop. Moreover, beasts such as wolves and bears in the back of the woods had fled simultaneously in a direction opposite their voices.

After enough roaring of joy, the roar finally begins to subside. The machine was captured and the transmission order conveyed further information.

"Sir Masaias Lockhart is still concerned that he may have enemies. His Excellency Baron Roxbala was also on heightened alert. Two hundred blacksmiths and one hundred adventurers have also arrived from Periclitle…"

The Dwarves' atmosphere turns into something sword-soaked when they say "what..." to the word that they may have enemies.

"What do you think of Sir Govan? That one shouldn't be wasting his guard."

The preaching bows its head deeply to the Queen's inquiry.

"Sir Govan Lockhart has been badly wounded in battle with the enemy's chief and is lying down. For this reason, your Lord Sir Masaias is also in command of the defense."

The queen was surprised to hear that Govan had been injured, but immediately returned her expression,

"Did Sir Zacharias say anything? I can't believe you're hurt, Mr. Zach."

The decree shook his head sideways saying "no,"

"Sir Zacharias looked tired, but not injured. Sir Zacharias was also concerned about the remnants of the enemy, but he seemed to think that there were no enemies nearby that could pose a threat…"

The queen said, "Thank you for your hard work. Now I ask for a preaching order to the King's Capital," he labored and begins future discussions with Ulrich and others.

"I don't suppose the fact that Mr. Zach is only required to be vigilant without consolidating his protection is a situation that quickly becomes dangerous. Then there's no reason for us to go to Lasmore Village."

Otto Elwes, a young clerk who refrains beside the queen, loses his blood from exhaustion and nods loudly at the queen's words with his fallen eyes.

"The Black Steel Knights garrison, plus 300 more from Periclitle. Two thousand people already, more than double the population of the village of Rasmore. Pushing any more will unnecessarily strain the Lockhart family, which is exhausted by heavy fighting. I thought we should turn back here."

Besides the burden on the Lockhart family, he was also concerned about the impact of the blacksmiths' absence on the Ars economy. Als Street received the first report of the undead emergence and was sealed off, but the streets to Fortis, the kingdom of the Caerm Empire and mercenaries, are functioning and the deal continues.

Further to this information, there is a visible increase in demand for weapons. The absence of the blacksmiths means not only exporting products and buying and selling raw materials, but also that the Dwarves, who are willing to consume, will no longer be able to turn their business around. As one of the bureaucrats, he wanted the Dwarves to return to Ars as soon as possible.

But the story goes in a completely different direction than his thoughts.

"Nor is it our intention to burden ourselves. But sleeping is fine in the wilderness. We just have to take the liquor and rice. And there was enough battle for that Lionheart Govan to sleep in. Let the villagers be tired, too. There must be something we can do."

Endorsement is raised by the Dwarves in Ulrich's words. Elwes looked at the queen with a great deal of hope.

"I may be bothering you, but you should go here once"

The queen ran out of words.

"Your presence is bigger than you all think. Heavy towns of the Blacksmith Guild cited to defend the village of Rasmore. I worry so much that I can't help but go after the crisis has left. This fact is important."

"What do you mean? Tell me so I can understand," says Gaelnote Graver.

"The village of Rasmore was protected by the Lockhart family. Retreat more than 10,000 troops, too. This martial name will strike the world."

"Right," the Dwarves nod.

"There is now a successor struggle in the Empire. Perhaps forces should appear to try to use Lockhart's martial name. No, there will always be voices from both factions. Then the Lockhart family will be caught up in the Imperial House commotion…"

The Dwarves are bewildered by the fact that the story is getting bigger, but they are listening quietly.

"... both the contemporary Sir Masaias and the next Lord Rodrick are the epitome of clean knights, and no power struggle is desired. Sir Zacharias, no, the same goes for Mr. Zach. That one would be able to cross with the Empire's heavy ministers, but I don't want that. So you all need to declare to the rest of the world that the Dwarves of the Blacksmith Guild are cordial with the Lockhart family and that unnecessary interference turns the Guild against the enemy!

"What does that have to do with Nong et al going to the village?

"You can't even trust the elite of the Kaum kingdom, and you're going to save the village of Rasmore with your own hands, the Lockhart family. I mean, whatever country you are in, you're going to declare to the world that you're not going to leave it to people. If anyone gets their hands on the Lockhart family, the Blacksmith Guild will deal with them. If you act like that, the Lockhart family won't be exposed to unnecessary interference."

The Dwarves put their arms together and think.

"I mean, bye. I wish they could have just hit the undead with their hands on Lockhart and made him look like he had a pork bump without waving his side to Lasmore Village."

"That's Mr. Ulrich," the queen grins at Ulrich's words.

"Nong et al. continue on to the village of Rasmore! But get the supplies you need! Sir Elwes, there are no Alliance officials here. I'm sorry, but I need to make arrangements."

Ulrich says so and bows his head.

He was bowed his head by the blacksmith guild's master craftsman, who said he wouldn't even bow his head to the king, and Elwes had no choice but to say "I accept".

Although Elwes understands the Queen's thoughts themselves, he is dismayed that this situation continues. He also had some doubts as to whether the Queen was going to the village of Rasmore for what she said.

(Her Royal Highness wanted to drink but didn't reason for it... No, that's exactly what happened... but this could be the one. Maybe he reasoned to sell his favors to the blacksmiths. That fits your purpose…)

Elwes thinks about it, but he was not given time to think deeply.

One job after another came to him. When he appointed the next town official as a temporary subordinate under royal authority, he began arranging for the necessary supplies. And I made that arrangement all night.

Elwes, who had completed the arrangement, had been brought to the chair as if it had burned out. He was half-conscious, but carried into the carriage by order of the queen.

"I'm so glad you had Sir Elwes. Then we'll leave."

Elwes had heard the words in her dreams.
