Frontier Lord Starts Out With a Population of 0

Unique air dominates the perimeter before the war begins.

A large number of soldiers gathered in one place, each silent... silently aware that the war was about to begin... nervous or moving or taking a deep breath, and the twitches that occurred that way mingled in the wind and spread around... creating a unique unspeakable air.

No one is speaking out, but I find it oddly noisy... that's the air.

"It's war."

How dare you say that when I say that in armor I'm on the ground for nothing with a war axe stone poke,

"It's war."

and Klaus, wearing earth-dragon material protective gear and lightly speared, returns his voice.

I received a letter from Eldan and sent him a letter of reply...... then exchanged letters several times, about noon five days after I received him that way.

We are relative to the armies of Deane and the others who form a formation on the eastern edge of the meadow.

As a precaution, the line of enemies in the range seen by the binoculars I brought... I counted it all the time, apparently as many as the letter from Eldan said, about 50 heavily armed infantry with spears and swords led by Deane in the center and 200 lightly armed mercenaries with swords and bows on the left wing.

And there are about 1,000 troops in black robes led by Eldan on the right wing... what a big army of snobbish placements.

This side of the line against such a great army...... me and Klaus and

"Mr. Eldan and the others are an amazing number.

It must be hard for you to have rice or something when you have so many. "

and there are 10 mufties led by Emma, who says that while clinging to my hair over my head, and Murph, who lies on the ground near us and hides that body in the grass.

Aima, who accompanied her as a liaison officer using her good ears and mobility... Well, it can't be called force, so 12 people, including me, will be all of this force.

Our main force, Murph and the others, are wearing battle masks in their mouths, conceived by Klaus and produced by haunted craftsmen and finally adjusted by Arner, wrapping their battle capes around them.

The mask Klaus named Dragon Fang was built to protect Murph's mouth and fangs rather than for attack.

It is shaped to cover the mouth and teeth with black gee leather while ensuring gaps and holes for breathing, and to reinforce the tooth area with earth dragon nails, tooth tips, etc., a mask made for the purpose of preventing injury or broken teeth when bitten by the enemy… as a result, it also ensures a corresponding attack power.

Likewise, that cloak, named Dragon Scale Cloak by Klaus, is amazingly stitched with shredded and shaped objects of earth dragon material, and they are joined as if they were fish scales.

Rather than being attacked by enemies, it was made for the purpose of flushing the attack with scales, which boasts a defense that is not commensurate with its lightness thanks to the material of the Earth Dragon.

The dragon scaled cape also has a dragon scaled hood that covers the heads and ears of the Murphs, and you can also tightly cover the entire head by coupling that hood with the mask.

With original quick moves and the fruits of daily training, those equipped Murphs gently chew the stone out with their fangs, causing them to gently flush Klaus' genuine spikes, and rely on them altogether.

The total number of opposing enemies with those reliable allies is 1250...

"This is how I tried to face it and realized again...... that's a really awesome difference in power.

I figured you should have asked the ghosts to reinforce you... or at least come to Master Arner?

And Klaus calls out in the middle of a thought.

"... the ghosts will have to protect their villages too, and Arner has an important role to play in hiding the villages with cover-up magic... when it comes to hiding everyone.

If you stay here, I'm sure you can count on me, but I can't help it. "

"Right...... right.

I wish Mr. Eldan had at least attached himself to this side... "

"Eldan has Eldan's dreams, and he has people and positions to protect, so he can't risk them at our convenience.

... it's just that even this morning, I'm going to go inside, and I'm going to try sending you a letter with that content, trying to prepare as many as 1,000 troops even though you don't have to, and whether Eldan is really on the enemy's side... it must be a delicate place. "

Since sending Eldan a reply saying that if it is doubtful that it is fake or not, then... if it is the king's order, he should obey honestly, Eldan has been sending letters of such contents with pigeon tribes as he does every day.

Some of those letters even contain information about Deane's purpose as far as Erdan can know, the number of soldiers, the quality and number of equipment, and the level of skill of the soldiers... what the hell are you going to do if Deane and the others find out you're doing that?

Whenever those letters were delivered, I wrote and sent them a reply saying that they would prioritize me and your people without such a dangerous imitation, but still, they continued to arrive with letters of the same content, and in the end, even this morning, when the battle was about to begin, it began.

Too many armies of those 1000 men to take us in, rather than what they do to us... seems to me to be a force to protect us from Deane and the rest of us to control Deane and the rest of us at times of need... at all, does Eldan have a good eye for my letter?

"I see......

If Mr. Eldan is not on the enemy's side, he can see winning too... Shall we hope so?

... Whether Mr. Eldan is an enemy or an ally, if you are in an operation, follow the meeting...?

"Oh, I'll go with the plan that Emma thought of for me.

Running around in the meadows watching the other guy get out, hiding in the grass, guiding him to the pit zone he set up.

Repeat that and somehow break up Deane and Eldan and ambush Deane... let's just say we get rid of Deane "

With Eima thinking about the effective location of the pit, the dogs dig the pit... and there are pit zones all over the meadow that have rushed off in the last few days.

Those pitfalls, which are covered by the grass, can be identified by the marking of the dogs so that they can be positioned in the smell… they will be effective for the army of the human race.

I'm a little anxious to see if this operation really works... but there's no other good operation, so I'll have to do it.

... Behind the battlefield, Bayers is holding me back with the chef.

I'm also thinking of an operation, with the help of Bayers if it wasn't possible in that operation, where I set up a single raid under Deane to get rid of Deane... well, let's not tell everyone about this.

It is our aim to eliminate Deane, who is the culprit at all costs, and to crack this situation down by means of horns.

... Yes, the elimination.

Klaus and the others aren't saying anything to me about not daring to use the word kill.

If you can do it, you don't want to kill each other among the King's people, so that's why you're doing it... and how far can you go with your thoughts...

"... well, that's it, of course it's for everyone in the village of Ill... but we have to work hard for Senai and Aihan."

You care about me, who was thinking of something nasty and had a sinister face, or Klaus smiles and says those words.

"... oh yeah.

We have to work hard for the Senays. "

Deane and the others came to raid, to loot... With a house and carriage that was easy to rebuild called Yurt, we had the option of temporarily abandoning the village, loading as much baggage as we could in the carriage, fleeing through the meadows, and doing Deane and the others.

... We had that option, but we didn't choose it.

Choosing that option means throwing away a field that is becoming successful around the corner... and throwing away that field that Senai and Aihan love as much as they do every day... and that's all I've been told.

Abandon the village, leave the village... If it turns out that Deane and the wild beasts have razed the fields... what do you think the Senays will look like...

... It hurts my chest just to imagine it at all.

After I started taking care of that field, I stopped crying at night when the Senays remembered my parents.

I guess that field is as important to the Senays as it is to support their minds.

Then I need to protect that support as a family and I'm putting my strength into my hand holding the battle axe as I think about it and putting my temper back in... the overhead Emma slaps Pessipesi and my head.

"Mr. Diaz, Mr. Diaz.

What the hell is that enemy soldier carrying? It's kind of huge and flashy... "

When Ayma tells me that and I do my sight to Deane and the others, I see a large wheeled... silver bell suspended in an iron frame at the back of a person being carried by several soldiers.

"... that's a battle bell.

The thing that rings that bell and tells the military in battle with that sound... but it doesn't exactly convey the instructions, the enemy has found out what the instructions are, the enemy has taken them and used them to confuse them, the antiques that are no longer used at the beginning... of the example war. "

And, while explaining the battle bell to Ayma, watch as the battle bell is placed right on Deane's side... taking out the battle bell or something to haunt her head about what the hell she wants to do and what the hell she's after... the battle bell begins to be severely beaten by the soldiers, and the noise of the damning battle bell echoes into the meadows.

I peek into the binoculars to see if there is any movement due to the sound of such a battle bell, and keep an eye on the movements of the enemy soldiers... but there is no movement such as this in particular.

If you insist, the soldiers of Deane in the center are brave enough to lay down their weapons, but they're not doing anything, they're just laying down.

"... surely a streak was a signal of an all-army assault.

Hit the battle bell in a row, keep hitting it in a row...... all the troops rush out the moment the streak is over, simultaneous assault.

... but at this distance, do we launch an all-army assault with this difference in power? Not the whole army moving forward?

When I leak words like that with a peek into my binoculars,

"An all-army assault... what the hell are you thinking over there?

There are no cavalry from what I've seen, and Deane is the only one on the horse...

… you'll be out of breath if you run this distance with that gear "

Perhaps Klaus is peeking into the binoculars, too, after a little while those words return.

As me and Klaus peek into the binoculars that way, Amma is annoyed by the sound of bells coming from afar, moving from above my head, into my armor… diving into my chest, where I hold both ears.

Well, yeah, the sound of the bell stops. It's good to hang out there.

Then for a while, the battle bell kept ringing... and in the meantime, if it were to storm the entire army as signaled, I would consider and discuss with Klaus how to respond and where to run... the sound of hitting the battle bell in a row would stop abruptly.

Soon, Klaus and I will stop discussing this, lay down our weapons, and watch the enemy's movements.

That's how you keep an eye on the enemy's movements... and skip the instructions to the Murphs lurking in the grass.

"Wait a while! I can't read what they want to do! See how it goes!

Apparently, a series of hits was not a signal of an all-army assault... only 50 people in the center are coming this way for some reason.

The left-wing mercenaries and the right-wing Eldans have no movement whatsoever... I can't even see them laying weapons there.

Uhm...... what the hell do Deane and the others want? What the hell kind of operation is taking such action?

Why would only 50 people attack?

Aren't those 50 guys in the main unit in the first place...?

What the hell do you want with Deane, Deane's white horse and a few of his squire left in what appears to be the main battalion... but leaving the main battalion defenseless?

And, watching the enemy as he put up an axe of war, and circling his thoughts about that and this, the 50 people in the center who had been storming mightily this way gradually began to lose their momentum, and also stopped raising their voices... and looked around for some reason... and stopped those legs.

Just look around to see what the 50 infantrymen are like... time passes without any movement on the left or right wing.

What the hell was going on in this situation where no battle ever started and I fell into adhesive state, me, Klaus, and my chest Emma, could just lean their necks.
