Dungeon Defense (WN)

A group of battalion commanders were standing by the river, waiting for us.

The ferry that we were on slipped into the river. Immediately, the servants came out. The acolytes spread the dried red carpet beautifully. I got off the ferry first and politely reached out my right hand.

“Madame Pymon. ”

“Be nice. ”

Pymon smiled softly and grabbed my hand.

The commanders of the regiment put things right together.

“Salute the commanders! ”

“Glory to Monthly Bliss! ”

The wave of salutation followed.

The sunlight reflected in the river and was dazzling. In that glare, the flags flare. The camel symbolizes Pymon. A goat with three horns symbolizing citrus. Various regimental flags. And the flags of the Knights they defeated and destroyed...

We walk on a carpet in the middle of the camp.

“It's like a wedding. ”

“Oh my God. Is it bad to talk to anyone about that? ”

“I don't do it to anyone. It's a pymon, so it's a pass. ”

“That's why you don't have any faith, Dantalian. ”

Pymon chuckles.

I shrug. I've never been fooled by dating cops for hundreds of years. Pymon was no better than Ivar Lodbroke.

“Welcome, King Pymon. King Dantalian. And.... ”

Laura, the chief of staff, is standing guard. Laura looks behind us and pinches her eyebrows on her fine forehead.

“Why is Citri soaking wet? ”

“Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh. It's all because I'm bad. I'm sorry, Pymon. I'm sorry, Dantalian. Aaaahhh!"

Citri was like a drowned mouse. She sighs, not knowing if she's a river or a tear.

“…… there is a surrender mission waiting at the gate. I'll show you.”

Laura gives you an impression and goes back to her sinister expression. He seemed to be aware of the fact that nothing good would come of it. Clever bastard.

The surrender emissary was putting a picture in front of the gate, just like Laura said. They all came from nobles, even though they were dressed in luxury. The Republic of Habsburg boasted of sparking a revolution, but class and identity remained unchanged.

Officially, nobles and citizens say that instead of the word "first citizen, second citizen," like this. In short, it's blindfolded. Excellent technique.President Elizabeth has a lot to learn.

“I see a great being. ”

“I see a great being. ”

The gentlemen representing Heidelberg bow.

We politely greeted them and reviewed the surrender document immediately - even if they were hostile - they would not be disrespectful to the ambassador.

Hand over all rights to Heidelberg to the Demon Prince. Pay Saman Libra as war compensation. Anyone who does not accept the Demon Prince's rule must leave the city immediately.

Pymon nods.

“Looks like there's nothing wrong with the document. ”

It was a very generous condition. He didn't ask for the lives of the men in charge. They did not slaughter or pillage civilians.

The envoy praised our mercy until it ran out of lips.

“How can you not be grateful for His mercy? ”

“Great beings will receive blessings from God. ”

Pymon has signed the document as the representative.

A middle-aged man handed Pymon a large key. The man was Mayor of Heidelberg, and the prize was the key to the city gate. In the tense air, Pymon gives a big smile and claps his shoulders.

“You've done your duty as mayor of citizenship, and you've done your best as commander of the city. That Pymon salutes you. ”

“Cow, thank you for your generosity. ”

The market was terrified no matter who saw it. I thought my beard was a coward.

That's for your master only, mister. The humans around you have heard that you will be executed for treason even if you return alive. Elizabeth cannot help but make a sacrifice of defeat. Tsk tsk.

“There's something I dare to ask you.... ”

“Oh my God. Ask me anything. ”

“Sosin is reckless and foolish, and cannot afford to discuss the law. ”

The market was sweating on his half-bald forehead.

“That's why the Knights' assault ended with no success... … Even the Vanguard was wiped out in Halbron, and I didn't understand it. Praise be to God. The Great One dares to question the reason why nature was pierced. ”

Hey, this grumpy guy is also the enemy's chief of staff.

Hmm. Hmm? Hmm...

Suspicious. A little, but just in case. I don't think so, but I'm flattered about everything.

“Well, what's the rationale for that? ”

Pymon glances at me.

Laura was my servant. I had the right to answer a question. I forfeited my rights to the parties by looking at Laura again.

Laura nods and opens her mouth.

“It is your responsibility to prevent your plans in advance. ”

“Eh……? ”

The mayor was embarrassed and looked around at Laura's appearance. Laura frowns and scowls, and the mayor quickly bows his head.

“I'm sorry. You seem too young... … Please forgive me if I'm too immature to count your age. ”

“Responsibility is not for the Mage. Humans. You've only lived for three months at the age of 20, so you don't have to worry about excuses. ”

The mayor slowly turned his face into a confused crucible. Other envoys were clearly shaking as well as the mayor.

“You're a human...?" How can a 20-year-old be more...? ”

“Let's not discuss extraordinary matters. ”

Laura just cut it off and said,

“First, you asked me how I knew nature, but the question itself was wrong. Your defeat in this war is not entirely your fault. There are wars where victory and defeat depend on fate. But not this time. ”

Laura rubs her hair with one hand.

“He was acquainted with the fact that you were extremely competent. President Habsburg is an unprecedented tactician, and the military behind him is also filled with talented personnel. Heidelberg is one of the most important Nodes. It is unlikely that President Habsburg has sent an incompetent soldier into charge and has converged on zeroes. ”

“What the……. ”

“It means that your personality was about to be revealed. ”

She swoops her golden head back. It was a sign that my thoughts were organized in my head.

“A competent soldier knows exactly when to be brave and when to be cautious. I can almost imagine what President Habsburg asked you to do when he left Heidelberg in your charge. Defend the Keep. ”

“ ……. ”

“But we don't have enough men. Don't expect the Central Force to come to war with as little damage as possible……. Roughly. You were in a position where you had to operate your military extremely efficiently. ”

The market's complexion became more pale. Laura pushes her words out of the way.

“The fortress is surrounded. How did he judge you? Breaking through the siege? Absolutely not. You are competent. That's why they immediately realized, 'Destroying the bridge will solve everything.' Isn't it?”

“… No, that's right. ”

“Look, the problem becomes simpler. ”

Laura smiles widely.

“How do we focus on breaking the dots and minimizing the damage? ”

“…… a surprise. ”

“Well, technically, it's a nightmare. However, an ambush can only fail on its own if it is not highly trained. You are the elite force to succeed in the operation. In other words, I had to mobilize the knights. ”

Laura was kind, as if a friend had told a friend the secret of magic.

“You've ordered the Knights to charge dozens of times before they succeed so they can break through even if we're preparing for an ambush. Gladly. As you instructed, the Knights have charged more than 16 times. Until it's all gone. ”

The mayor's shoulders trembled.

“It was clear where you were aiming, what you were aiming for, and how. Do I need any further explanation? ”

The mayor bows his head and is silent for a moment. The other envoys look at him with worrying eyes. The market barely opened its mouth again, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

“How…… the Faction Fleet……. ”

“It's the same. Once the knights are burned, you again decide to break through the bridge with minimal damage. Now that we've lost our means of attack on the ground, what's left to attack? The answer is the prime minister. It's a simple quantum choice. ”

“Simple……. ”

The mayor raised his face. There was a vein of blood in his eyes.

“However, the Vanguard was destroyed before it even got to the bridge. Unbelievable. ”

“Hmm? It's obvious. ”

Laura turns to a face she doesn't understand.

“You recalculated the time the fleet arrived at the bridge on a windy day in the east? If we calculate that inversely, the time at which the tip will be heard in the Hilbron is derived at once. This is also simple logic. There is no such thing as the heavenly body because it is natural. ”

“ ……. ”

There was silence.

It was then that the mayor sighed in anger.

“You bitch...... Your bitch knows our territory! ”

Oops.

The mayor stretches out his hands and rushes at Laura like an animal. A faint error rises from your fist. The mayor was from a knight.

Screams erupt around you. The envoys are full of horrors. I screamed. Pymon rolls his eyes, and Citri steps onto the ground to make swift progress. But they didn't have to worry.

“Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-ah! ”

The marketplace has already been pierced by the swords protruding from the shadows.

The Knights of Death. I've been waiting for this to happen.

When I heard this story, it was so suspicious. He was mayor, military commander, and operations chief. In short, he was a great man in charge of civilization, military and military operations all at once. I was incredibly competent.

A competent man like that who can't control his tone and facial expressions, he complains?

Suspicious. You want to force the opponent to act weak and be cautious. I'm sorry, but even a newborn can't be deceived by such rubbish.

“Lord.”

Laura looks at me. She doesn't seem surprised. What a 20-year-old girl with such a strong heart.

It's funny where it is, so I crack it open.

“A gift, Laura. You can take the pig's neck to the collection. ”

Laura opens her eyes slightly, then smiles.

“A girl can't help what she's unloaded. ”

Laura draws a longsword from her waist. Laura blows Laura's dagger through the neck of the market, though his limbs were pierced. The headache drifts through the air for a short while, then thumps and rolls on the ground.

The silence settles on all sides.

“Maybe the invitation arrived incorrectly. Perhaps they are not emissaries, but assassins. If the Deliveryman confuses the bureau with the Assassin's Guild, there's no way. ”

I relaxed to Pymon.

The envoys' faces were pale white. Given the atmosphere, the market seemed to have carried out the assassination alone. Sole offender, innocent of others. As a human species, you show your last pride and the rest live. Did you mean that…….

Fine. I'll show you what I paid for it.

“No one who ruins the banquet is welcome here. We have to send them back where they need to go. Isn't that right?"

Let's kill them all.
