Elf Tensei Kara no Cheat Kenkoku-ki

Lesson Six: Forbidden Fruit

It had been four days since I came to Bel Elsier.

The arrival of Imperial soldiers is slower than planned. Perhaps the one who made it impossible came along the way.

made him head for reconnaissance a few times but he is not vibrant in the soldier's face and many seem to be injured

He's only been given a minimum meal, and the deserters are out, and every time he does a show, he doesn't have a toothpick.

In my free time I was teaching the people of Bel Elsier how to grow hemp and how to use new weapons.

Today we are discussing using a room given to members of Iraqsa. We shared the results of the reconnaissance when the members returned.

"Loreau, what do you think when you hear the report from the scouts?

I don't know why.

"I was ready for a long fight, but they could starve to death on their own."

Looking only at the situation, it looks like he just gave up the strength to put the status quo without even recovering the soldier, remaining devastated in the last battle.

"... long, if you attack me either way, I'll just chase you back, it's no use thinking"

"You're absolutely right."

Loreau sometimes simply tells the truth about things.

No matter how hard you think, it doesn't change what you do. Just pay for the fire powder that will take you down.

"But Cyril. I hate it when this keeps happening. No matter how easy it is, it's hard to get attacked every time."

"Right. If it strikes even with all those painful eyes... this could really go on forever until we die"

Lucier and Kuw groan anxiously.

Their anxiety is best. A country without health like Elsier would be fatally wounded if it lost once, but the empire would heal in a few years even if it was struck by the fact that 5,000 people would become irreversible.

An empire that doesn't matter how many times you lose with us once you lose.

In the first place, there's too much difference in population to attack from here.

"I'm thinking about that area, and I'm doing a trick to get the empire out of the way of war. That's the hemp seed I brought in today."

"Plants do damage to the Empire?

"Yeah, I'm gonna make a little pill and sprinkle it."

Grow hemp here as one of the operations that will damage the Empire.

It's drug contamination you're after. If there's no drugs out there in this world, it'll be a devastating blow if it works.

Generate marijuana using hemp as a raw material. Of course, just sprinkling marijuana doesn't do much damage.

Cannabis itself has no great effect. Trip can only enjoy mild intoxication as much as alcohol, and addiction is less than coffee. The negative effects on my body were more than alcohol and cigarettes.

Being addicted to marijuana is high enough hurdles to empty a helicopter every day and become addicted to alcohol.

"Cyril, is that medicine? Not poison."

"It's just a pill that really makes me feel better. They don't want to drink poison, do they? It doesn't make sense where one or two people drank and died. If it's poison, it'll make you feel better. If it's a drug, we all want to take it, right?

... but when I get used to the feeling of this medicine, I can't stay or stand until I take the medicine at any cost. At the end of the day, we'll be killing each other over drugs. If we reduce the supply of drugs at that time, there will be enough chaos for the country to die "

Truly marijuana exerts its power when combined with other drugs. In the intoxicating conditions caused by cannabis, the body's resistance decreases and, after sharpening all senses, increases the absorption rate of the ingredients of the medicine.

Fortunately, the mountains are native to the proximal species of Asahi and the proximal species of Bearded Sibiledake.

Both can break people alone, but it is difficult to increase them at the hands of people, so the amount is tight to secure. However, if cannabis is mixed together, even a very small amount of cannabis will be more effective than normal, so a large amount of medicine can be prepared.

The drug ingredients of cannabis, methamphetamine extracted from anesthesia based on powder containing tetrahydrocannabinol, silocibine extracted from beard gesibiredake, processed and tableted with a small mixture of powdered alcohol with it, give the most overwhelming pleasure to want to stop humans, blowing up reason in an instant to make you feel the highest and even hallucinate the worst drugs you can see.

What's more troublesome is that this drug creates extreme addiction. If I use this five times, all I can think about is concomitant medication until autopoisoning due to the excessive secretion of endorphins in my brain.

"Dear Brother Cyril, I don't know. I don't think Yukino wants me to kill people because I feel better about how much medicine I take."

"That's because Yukino has reason. This medicine is the first thing that takes reason... compassion away from you. People become beasts, not people. The next moment people want what they have, they try to take it away. If anyone gets in the way, I'll kill him, because of the guy who got in the way."

"Brother Cyril, I'm scared. I don't want to use it."

"Yeah, I don't want to use it either. Maybe once I use it, I won't be able to stop it."

If we make and release a ton of this stuff in a big country where more than 100,000 people live, we'll have a hell of a hell that won't really go out of style.

On top of that, it is the unrelated public who will be sacrificed. Without any sense of consciousness, it breaks down and it starts hurting people. It would result in the creation of thousands of such human beings.

"Cyril, I'm scared too. I knew we'd stop."

"Still, if the fight goes on, you have to hit your hand. If we keep fighting, we'll always lose one day. I'm more important to Elsie than tens of thousands of people in the empire.... so hopefully the Empire won't hunt us down any more"

Prepare the medicine.

If, by the time this medicine is complete, the Empire has not yet given up Elsier, he will use it without mercy.

Two more days later, the Imperial Soldier finally reached Bel Elsier.

Close all the gates at a fairly close stage and place the soldiers on the high ground. Pretty attentive to the soldiers to be placed.

Bel Elsier, who hosts refugees, is prone to carry his enemies inside because of their properties. There won't be enough of them to storm inside, but the intelligence of the Empire is definitely getting in. Maybe from other countries.

We need to turn our consciousness to the Imperial Soldiers and at the same time pay attention behind them. For this reason, they are not placed anywhere near members of Iraqsa except by persons designated by the five trusted leaders.

I was in position with Lucier on a certain high ground.

You just learned, this time the Imperial soldiers were storming with shouts without giving you a name. I don't even recommend surrender.

A few people run along a ladder to hang on the outer wall, surrounded by humans with large shields. I wasn't wearing any armor.

"Well thought out"

"Yeah, that's a little hard to do"

I don't have much point in wearing it because I can penetrate a crossbow where I'm wearing armor. A big shield doesn't push you through, even if you can pierce it. Therefore, fatal injuries can be avoided.

Not to mention, there are a thousand of them, not to mention less than last time, it's hard to attack with this number of people in a situation where no fatal injury is inflicted by a single blow.

In fact, the arrows unleashed by the soldiers of Bel Elsier are naturally not quite as fatal as the arrows unleashed by members of Iraqsa.

Being on the high ground is beneficial, but the angle of shooting is limited and the shield above cannot be effectively attacked in front of it.

"Attract them all yet!

The distance is about 100 m away.

I rush to nail him not to use the new weapon.

This time, all of the new weapons are concentrated and trained by about twenty Bel Elsier soldiers.

If I mistreat you, this one will be wiped out without jokes.

Therefore, I only give them to those who are careful and trustworthy in their handling.

"Throw, stand up!

Twenty Belle Elsier soldiers take out a large metal cylinder of rugby balls at my direction. The surface is thin metal, inside is a core made of metal, and the rest of the space is tightly packed with black sandy things and sharp metal fragments.

The screams of the Imperial soldiers are getting closer and closer.

Its distance, about fifty meters.

"Throw!"

On my signal, the Belle Elsier soldiers threw a large metal cylinder of rugby balls at the same time. It throws like a cannonball because it weighs quite a bit.

Even with such weight and throwing, Bel Elsier's soldiers proudly threw from the high ground, sometimes flying about fifty meters.

The position where the metal cylinder fell was where the leading group of Imperial soldiers fell out. Falling over the head of an unlucky soldier, the one that hit him directly died instantly, and the one that he took with his shield broke his bone with that impact.

But that's where the tragedy came from.

"Everybody block your ears and keep your mouths half-open!

I scream as hard as I can, I've soured my mouth beforehand and said it over and over again, but I'll say it again.

The cylinder of metal that hit the soldiers and shields rolled to the ground and exploded the next moment with a tremendous roar.

One side is covered in earthen smoke per.

"This is terrible."

The sight was supposed to be filled with soldiers until just before, but there was nothing standing there. What was ravaged by the blast, what countless pieces of metal pierced.

As far as I could see, the bodies were born, and those that survived were also seriously or fatally wounded.

Even the Imperial soldiers, more than a hundred meters away, are dropping their knees and gasping for severe pain due to pieces of metal pieced into their bodies by dozens of people. Imperial soldiers with no trauma also have too many blasts, mostly tearing their eardrums around.

Damage goes beyond man alone. The trees were knocked down, holes were drilled in the ground, and several pieces of metal were pierced against the sturdy outer walls.

"Cyril, this, what the hell, is too strong. Funny, I can't believe people die so easily"

I was shivering in fear even to Lucier, who was supposed to be on my side. It was the first time we had seen the power.

It was too powerful to be tested.

"This is a weapon called a handgun. Lucier's right, if you can, it's a weapon you don't want to use on people."

What I made was a grenade. It's as simple as having a tube that ignites with extreme impact mixed with tons of black powder and countless fine pieces of metal.

First blow a radius of about 20 m at the time of the first explosion. At that point a significant number of people will die.

In addition, pieces of metal that were mixed in with explosives are scattered around the perimeter about dozens to hundreds of meters. Each piece of metal dispersed by the blast is bullet-like and produces more victims than the blast.

Twenty numbers of such things were thrown at equal intervals. No creature can stand with this.

indiscriminate weapons of destruction without question. The situation that can be protected against thick exterior walls and the point of landing should be kept about 50m away from the exterior walls. This is also difficult to use, but nothing is more effective in defense.

The great thing about hand ammunition is that the structure is so simple that mass production is easy. I don't even need maintenance.

Easy access to ingredients. Iron has tons of things taken from the Empire. Gunpowder can also make black gunpowder if it has nitrous stones, charcoal and sulphur. You can make nitrous stones if you have water and air, and charcoal burns wood. Sulphur can only be used as a material for corpses.

It is also safer because it is only used for defense, so it does not explode unless it is intentionally tapped to the ground with all its might, assuming that it is dropped from the high ground.

At a time when dense formations prevail, no weapon exists that kills people more inexpensively and efficiently.

"Everyone in Iraksa is in pursuit!

The soldiers who were holding back in the rear couldn't move much harder into the situation. Naturally. More than a hundred people die instantly, more than twice as badly injured.

That's why I don't condone it.

I'm not trying to escape because I think it's safe if we don't move on. I'll correct that perception.

"Set up a special arrow!

Set arrows on the crossbow at the same time on my orders.

But the arrows were different. There is a slightly longer arrow and an attachment at the tip.

Attach a small handgun there.

Rugby balls can't be powerful, but if they are miniaturized, they can be attached to an arrow.

Normally, if you put something like this on the tip of the arrow, the aerodynamics will go crazy and fly straight, the air resistance will also increase dramatically and the flight distance will drop considerably.

But with Elf's [windscreen] witchcraft, we can target long distances without the wind influencing anything like this.

"Let go!"

On my signal, now the arrows of the Iraqsa members are blamed.

Target is 100 meters away.

Even arrows with hand ammunition up to 150m are in range if Iraqsa members get serious.

And the arrow landed on a dense point of the soldier.

Again, numerous explosions overlap. It's smaller than just now, but still a dozen meters blows away with a blast and countless pieces of metal splash. Just like earlier, there were nearly a hundred victims in just one simultaneous fire.

Elves, crossbows and hand ammunition. Combining these three properties, this is the first amazing tactic you can do.

The Imperial soldiers began to flee at best. I start picking up sounds with the wind.

"Yawwwwww"

"You can't win like that."

"Why are you so far away"

"No, I don't want to die that way"

I can't help it.

We always blow a dozen meters around the target point, scattering deadly pieces of power over dozens of meters. No one comes at me when I'm shown something like this.

Until now we have attacked only one person at a time. So the Imperial Soldier had hope that he would be okay. But the combination of crossbows and hand ammunition doesn't even give me that hope.

"Don't run away! Run, run, they get to the next one before they depress and break the outer wall!

Bloodthirsty, an aristocratic man is calling behind him. There's quite a distance from here. I just can't aim.

All but some of the nobility's efforts escaped. All that's left will be about a Kingsguard.

Why don't you run? As I leaned my neck, a dozen well-dressed knights on horseback mounted me.

Were you waiting for reinforcements?

An aristocratic man smiles and raises his hands to try to welcome a knight man in.

"Whoa, back up, or I'll be grateful."

Then the next moment......

"Did you kill him?

The man decapitated the nobleman. The soldiers around them were trying to protest but the other knights were silencing them.

The knight puts his sword on the ground and walks slowly after raising his hands with the neck of a noble man.

"Gentlemen of the elves, listen to me. This raid is not the will of the Empire. It is the arbitrary devotion of the Duke of Forandier, who tried to wipe his own faults. The Empire had made a decision to reclaim the iron weapon with gold coins."

The knight shouted with a voice that often passes as he reached the position where his voice reached. My voice conveys my feelings when I am sincere and sorry.

"On this street, the Duke of Forandier was solemnly cleared by me. I want you to see this as a sign of good faith. On top of that, would you let me negotiate again? This I, the rightful messenger from the Empire, the Four Grand Dukes, to Voldek"

After a few moments of thought, I open my mouth.

"I am Cyril, the representative of Elsier. Fine. I understand your position. The negotiating venue is a former imperial supply base, now a village under Elsier's control, a room in Bel Elsier. That's on the condition that you bring only one squire."

"Thank you, Elf Chief. Thank you."

I was alert at the same time as I learned a certain interest in that thoughtful goodness.

And most of all, I was curious that while he was out so poorly, this man said at the end not Elsier's head, but Elf's head.

That is nothing more than an indication of willingness not to recognise the Elf country.
