Dungeon Defense (WN)

“Why did you lose your left foot again? ”

“That's what happened. The world didn't go my way. ”

The Longgwi girl looks at the worm.

We were marching side-by-side. Neutral Demon Kings are in the lead, I'm in the middle, and the rest of the Demon Kings are in reverse. It's time for us to move forward as a group, but we're still moving together.

“Oh, yes. Of course you are. You expect things to go according to plan after what they're going to do? It's your taste to smile like hell instead of like Dunne. ”

“This time it's real. I didn't expect anything. The world is a continuous mystery. I'm glad I still have a lot of fun left. ”

“I'll drink to that. ”

Sancti Longgwi said with cold eyes. Jacqueline Longgwi likes to make these violent jokes. I also did not dislike this side of the saint. Sanctuary Longgwi seriously mutters.

“I don't even have a foot. If I just shave it off and drop it on my head, I think I can kill it. ”

“ ……. ”

You've got to be kidding me, maybe.

We didn't take the horses alongside each other because we were very close. Currently on the diplomatic stage, the Habsburg Republic and the Anatolian Empire have blamed us all day long. It was a group of evil dark magic, an insult to the emperor, or a plain slang.

Jacqueline Longgwi was the most popular saint on the continent. The nobles were also very supportive, and above all, they were overwhelmingly loved by the common people. The fact that Saint Longgwi is moving with me. By itself, we were able to express diplomatic gestures very strongly.

Dark magic is a ridiculous trap. The Holy Mother guarantees it. Elizabeth's diplomatic warfare will not go well.

“Hey, I'm telling you, if I die, the last person to take care of Brittany will be gone?" ”

“Of course you're joking. Are you stupid?”

Sanctuary Longgwi gave birth to the castle. I shrugged and shut up.

The horse hoof tingles quietly for a while. As I was reviewing the strategy in my mind, Lady Longgwi spoke to me first.

The Habsburg Republic is a small country. ”

“Yes? Oh, yeah. ”

“Why are we fighting a total war with such a large force? Although the President of the Republic is a remarkable man, there seems to be no reason for the palace white to be overly vigilant. ”

“There's no reason to be alarmed.... ”

I made a bitter smile.

“I don't know about you, but President Elizabeth and I have a very long history. ”

“I know that. Starting with the speech on Bruno Plain……. ”

“No.”

I hung up.

“You don't know. ”

“…… What, rude. ”

The Longgwi girl frowns.

“Then tell me what I don't know. ”

“The exact spot where President Elizabeth and I collided was Frank. We put our country on the line and we fought. ”

Yes, it is.

The first conflict was the Lily War.

“If Brittany swallows Frank, President Elizabeth will have powerful allies by her side. Surrounding our empire on all sides. In other words, whether or not to defend Frank's independence was very important. ”

“Yes?”

The unpleasantness disappeared from Sanctuary Longgwi's face and a question came to mind instead.

“What are you talking about? Why is the Lily War the fight between you and the President? It was our fight in Brittany. ”

“There are many perspectives. From time to time, Her Majesty, the Queen of the Kingdom, has not been in talks with President Elizabeth. There must have been a president's physician involved in that war. ”

“ ……. ”

I was defeated in the Lily War.

The impact of defeat was significant.

First of all, while I was paying close attention to the war, the Demon Lord's power shook violently. Agarez and Gamegin united against the Plains. The plains almost collapsed if they did something wrong.

On the contrary, Elizabeth sighs. The allied Brittany is firmly grounded, and the hostile Habsburg Empire is engulfed in civil war. Elizabeth reformed the republic during a time as profound as this gold.

Round one is Elizabeth's victory. It was my final blow.

“Think about it. The Demon King Against whom the Civil War had defeated and fled, the return took her asylum without hesitation. Why was that?”

“That... is the Queen's decision. Maybe it'll help someday. ”

“Do you know what that future word means exactly? ”

The Lady Longgwi shakes her head cautiously. Of course you don't.

“The Demon King Agares is a double-edged sword. Our empire invaded Frank under the pretext of defeating Agares. If so, don't you think it is possible to do the opposite? ”

“On the contrary?”

“Instead, you invade our empire ahead of the Demon King Against. Agarez is unjustly driven out, and he raises up his army again to take revenge. ”

“ ……! ”

Jacqueline Longgrub's eyes widen. It was a face I could never imagine. The political sensation of the Longgwi girl was not so sharp.

“Simple. Useful tools for swooping in from this side can be useful for attacking from that side. The Queen of Brittany accepted Agarose. One reason. to serve as a beacon for future invasion of the Empire. ”

“Well... I've never heard of it. ”

“It would have been top secret. There must have been a plan between the President of the Republic and the Queen. ”

I smiled softly.

“Do you understand? The Republican president has been caught in the crossfire and has had a glimpse of the opportunity for a counterattack. I persuaded the Queen to accept the Demon King's asylum. If the Empire had a sneak peek, it would have bitten this way without hesitation. ”

So I focused on the nazi.

The Pyongyang - Neutral - Mountain Faction has been strengthened. There's no possibility of a civil war in the bay.

The Purge of Baal the Great was a continuous line. Baal was a dangerous molecule. He didn't know when to behave for his own desires. I needed to get rid of it quickly…….

“Threats will not go away as long as the Demon King Against Ares lives. Eventually, I decided to mobilize the entire Demon Prince army and eliminate Agarose. And by the way, it was a gold medal if you broke the power of return. ”

Round two.

Puppet War.

Each of you prepares yourself and asks Frank over the phone.

However, there were variables that Elizabeth could not calculate. Laura de Farnese. My precious treasure and continent's greatest strategist. Before Elizabeth could respond, Laura defeated Brittany's forces.

Elizabeth did her best to go and dispatch the detachment at the end, but in the end it was impossible to turn the tide. Frank is independent and Brittany is down. Elizabeth has lost her most powerful ally.

Round 2 wins me. It was Elizabeth's ordeal.

“ ……. ”

The Lady Longgwi is silent.

Her face distorts with anger and embarrassment.

“If you're right, it sounds like our Brittany...... was used like a puppet puppet of two of you. ”

“Everyone uses someone else and is used by someone else. ”

I calmly silenced the saint.

“You don't have to be so unpleasant. If the drama had gone as the Republican president hoped, the Kingdom of Britain would be in full swing by now. It also benefits Brittany, so the Queen of the Republic agrees with the President. ”

“ ……. ”

But it failed, not only by me.

“Well, I was sure I'd won. We cut off Brittany, we cut off Polytunia, and now the only friends left in the Republic are Sardinia. To cut the string, I started the military again. ”

Round three.

The War of Plumes.

This time, Elizabeth recognized Laura's existence. They had a thorough understanding of what they were aiming for and how they would behave. This is when we were ready.

But round three is a draw.

It ended in a draw.

“I brought Sardinia down, but the president succeeded in engaging the Anatolian Empire instead. The final battle was postponed. Each of us broke up with each other with a promise of closure. ”

The end is near now.

Elizabeth has no choice but to wage war in her own company. Currently, the Demon Prince is experiencing extreme labor. The plains of the Matufa Demon Kings have been wiped out. Moreover, the remnants of the Plains revolted everywhere.

It was a great chance.

If we miss this chance, we will never be able to overthrow the Habsburg Empire again. You have to risk everything you've built so far and jump into the battlefield. I'm sure Elizabeth thinks so...

“Holy Virgin Longgwi. Did Gu Tai ask why he would mobilize a large force to wage a total war? ”

I smiled.

“That's my answer. Clearly, the republic is a small country. But President Elizabeth is different. She led a small country, and she shared the battle with me. It's been seven years since the moon blindness started. It's a long, long story...... ”

Of course, no one knew.

No one knew that the Lily War, the Puppet War, the Plume War - were all oppositional fights between Elizabeth and me.

Though the saint listened to me and learned the truth, it will not spread in time.

How do we evaluate three wars in history? Would you describe the Habsburg Empire as expanding? Would you say that the Republic and the monarchy were necessarily in conflict?

Neither side was ever far from the truth. So it was fun.

Elizabeth and I fought with the entire continent on a long-range basis, with no one on the continent at all. In other words, this was our secret game.

“The Longgwi must help us to the end. When Sardinia's uprising last time, what do you think I did to Brittany? ”

“ ……. ”

Brittany defeated Frank's nobles and conquered the Holla Party. Behind this ruse I hid.

The queen and the saint received great favor from me. In this war, the Lady Longgwi helped me fully in order to repay the grace given to me at that time.

“…… Is the palace white confident in winning? ”

“No, there's no confidence anywhere. We have to do our best.”

However.

The game involved variables neither Elizabeth nor I had considered. It was Daisy.

Depending on how he behaved, there was a possibility that the phases would shake. Even if I had guessed Daisy's insides, I couldn't predict his every move. I wonder what will happen...

Daisy.

What are you doing now? How did you act out hatred in front of me? What are you going to do with Elizabeth and how are you going to deal with Barbatos? I want to talk to you right now.

But I'm sure we won't have much time to talk about the rest of our lives. I could intuit. So, let's all prepare for each other's end....

No regrets left.
