- The deepest man in the fort.

The back of the upper floor of the fort where the team merchant lodge was remodeled... Originally, it was the most luxurious room for guests, etc., and when the man was waiting for him now or later... he heard a noisy noise and the sound of hitting something hard from behind the window overlooking the courtyard.

"...... you're finally here."

He stood up from the sofa vigorously, and as the man approached the window, the sight of soldiers running around the courtyard and the city wall near the main gate entered his sight.

"... are you going to break through the front?"

Looking at the scene, the man muttered to himself, and one of the man's subordinates rushed into the room and raised his voice to report what had happened.

So, an enemy soldier, thought to be Diaz, came singly into the front gate!

"Ah, on a monoride!?"

... if only I could just shoot him with my bow and arrow! "

Unexpectedly, the man who raised his voice unexpectedly stroked the short, dull blonde hair with his hands and returned the words as he tried to restore calm... The soldier responded immediately.

"Well, no matter how many arrows I shoot... it's like there's an invisible wall."

... I think it's some kind of magic. "

"Ahh!? What the hell is going on!?

... it's true that some of the legends of the founding kings have such magic as bouncing back arrows, but it's like a fairy tale!

Oh, that's it. If the arrows don't work, throw rocks and boiled oil-- "

"I've prepared the oil now, but the stone throwing is equally useless...... but I'd better hit something with my hand......"

"What are you doing in front of that iron gate by yourself? If you came with a broken castle hammer or a siege weapon, you still know it's a one-rider, right?"

... oh, I see, that strange magic can only be protected by one human.

So... well, that idiot climbed the wall of the fort and captured it. Did he aim for it again...?

So... you can do anything with boiled oil. Even if you can avoid boiled oil by magic, you can't even imitate climbing a wall full of oil...

...... In the meantime, that magic won't be effective forever, so keep shooting the arrows and prepare the boiling oil in the meantime-- "

And while the man was speaking to the soldier, and the sound of slapping something that had been heard earlier, it was stronger and louder than before, and it echoed with a vibration that seemed to be shaking the whole fort.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... twice or three times... the man who was amazed at the loudness of the sound, lost his words, licked his hair again and made it up... then exhaled a big sigh.

"This sound isn't like a broken castle hammer... but is that bastard trying to smash the castle gate with his ax?"

... hehehe, you stupid bastard, can you do anything for such a stupid imitation?

Even if I could, I'd be exhausted by the time I cracked it... all I have left is my health to move.

I was going to take away that idiot's strength with the operation I had in mind... but I didn't mean to waste my strength on my own. "

Having said that, the man with the unpleasant smile turned his arms and turned his neck, softening his stiff joints... then headed to the deepest part of the room and began to wear the superior iron armor he had pushed into it.

The subordinate soldier silently watched the scene...... The man smiled, and the word maneuver came to his mouth, giving a reassuring expression.

Since the beginning of this rebellion, there has been no mistake in what the man says. If you listen to the man's orders, everything will be fine, and you can spend your days without any trouble with alcohol and eating.

Furthermore, I was able to hold a wallet with some gold coins in my pocket... and I was sure that the man would do well this time.

The man's plan to drain Diaz was to reduce Diaz's allies by putting them in a fort and defensive battle. If they were reduced to a certain extent, they would lead them into the fort, use the traps they set and the soldiers they collected to drain Diaz, and sting Diaz with their own tome where he was weakened... In other words, they would abandon dozens of soldiers and use them on their pawns to weaken Diaz, but the soldiers who did not know about it would simply trust the man with full confidence and wait quietly for him to prepare.

I put on my armor, put on my helmet, lowered my sword sheath on my waist, and grabbed my favorite axe spear... so the moment the man got ready, there was a loud and violent sound from the front gate, like something collapsed and collapsed.

"... I didn't expect to break the gate so soon..."

But the problem is, the door to the inside of the fort is sealed, covered with bricks, and there's a spacious courtyard at the front.

Anyway, it's about Diaz. He's supposed to come straight to the courtyard where he jumped in, and I'm going to drain that bastard with the trap he set up there. "

The man who had prepared himself said that and then approached the window overlooking the courtyard and peered into the courtyard... but there was no Diaz figure there, and the only thing that came into view was that the soldier who was supposed to ambush Diaz caught in the trap was still standing in a daze in the shadows.

"Ahhn? Where's Diaz?"

The moment a man raised his voice like that, a roar like the one just now could be heard.

It's probably the sound of Diaz knocking on the door that should have been covered with the same bricks as the surrounding walls that lead to the interior of the fort on the left and right, just a little further from the gate... That Diaz noticed that cover-up again and made such a tricky imitation!? Then, when the man was surprised, the screams of the soldiers resounded from the corridor on the roof of the fort.

When the man rushed to you, an eagle wrapped in a crust or something seemed like a monster at first glance attacked the soldiers...... The strings of the bow that the soldiers had were cut dexterously with their claws, and the bow itself was broken.

Not only are the soldiers being beaten, but they are also trying to counterattack with swords and arrows, but their swords are lightly beaten, and the arrows are flashed into their shells... like armor for an eagle... The eagle continues to beat the soldiers with a cleverness that doesn't seem like an eagle.

"What is it, that hawk!?"

The man who stepped out of the window at the sight raised his voice, but... I should first think about why he was doing that, rather than who that hawk was... The footsteps of dozens of humans rushing towards us before the man realized it were coming through the gate.

When the man heard the sound, he tried to give an order to block the gate that had been broken down in a hurry with appropriate wood or something, and to obstruct Diaz who was trying to enter the fortress. However, if it was too late to do so, the sound of the door that Diaz was tapping would be heard as if it was blaming the man for the slowness of his decision.

"Ugh... Which door has been broken!?"

There were two doors, one on the left and one on the right, and Diaz should have broken through to get in there. The man raised his voice while thinking about whether he should move and concentrate on the soldier, but... the roar came again, and Diaz started to hit the other door against the man's expectation.

Under such circumstances, footsteps that seemed to be the footsteps of Diaz's companions were coming towards us more and more... even as they intercepted them with bows and arrows, the soldiers on the corridor were wandered by a single eagle, completely incapacitated.

"Oh, you stupid bastard!?

A fort makes sense by unilaterally attacking enemies stranded by gates and walls!?

Then it doesn't mean anything!! "

Moreover, the man raised his voice close to such... screams.

In the first place, this fortress is too small for 500 soldiers.

The inside of the fort isn't even a cuckoo stuffing, but it's like having to set up soldiers' bedding in the hallway... I'm not going to use that number to besiege it or take advantage of that number.

At the very least, it would have been different if the courtyard had been used, but even though it was a pitfall and a bare trap, I installed a barista that was obviously too large to be installed in the courtyard, so it was not very important, but it was not in a state that I could use the number to carry out a brawl.

... so what should we do and what should we do?

Should I run away...? "No, but if I escape here, I won't be able to defeat Diaz... I don't have any guarantee that I'll get another chance...

While the man got lost like that, the situation got worse and worse. First, Diaz broke through the other door, and then Diaz's people came... and then they broke into the left and right doors. From the inside of the fort, violent fighting sounds and screams that seemed to belong to the soldiers could be heard.

According to information from the scouts, Diaz's crew is about 30 men, not that many.

However, to the extent that they could be seen from a distance, those 30 people were disciplined and ridiculously moving, and it seemed that they were not of the quality that gathered the peasants everywhere... moreover, even the characteristic buns and the information that the man knew well and saw a man very similar to Mont were delivered to the man.

There are parts of that mont that are not enough as a commander, but as an instructor, he is good, and when he is raised, he is better in quality than the soldiers he has prepared.

"--No, I see, Mont."

I wonder if Mont's son of a bitch got to Diaz, and Zhu Ha is not under Diaz's command... then it's Mont who's giving orders to Diaz!!

Well, then, there's still a chance to win. That old bun hurts, it's always frustrating, and I repeat my miscalculation that it's an idiot!

So don't let Zhu Ha tell you the strategic tactics, you idiot who can't beat Diaz!

That's right, the orders are flying straight out of Mont, and Diaz and the others are starting to get confused!!

Hey, that's why your first operation was to buy time..... "

With such words in mind, the man then tries to give orders to the soldier who was right next to him, but there is no figure of the soldier who was there before... and then he realizes that the box containing some military funds and the bottle of wine that he wanted to open after winning over Diaz are gone.

I was allowed to enter my room, and the best soldier I could find ran away.

The man who finally realized it, while swinging his axe spear in his hand, raised a scream that did not seem to belong to anyone.
