The Yelinetta Royal Army, which invaded the fortress city of Squadet, prevailed with tactics never seen by the Kingdom of Squadelia.
After the fall of the Sudette, the Royal Army of Yelinetta goes after the defeated Royal Scottish Border Army and the Knights of the Marquis Fertilio.
But something happened there, stopping the pursuit.
The defeated army is regrouping under the leadership of the Knights of the King who joined in a remote town.
And the Royal Army of Yelinetta was trying to repair the scratches they had acquired and consolidate their defenses.
Panamera, who appeared two days behind the Knights of the King's Landing after receiving such a report, narrowed her eyes.
"... lost in the cage castle, lost in the field, retreated. Without Baron Van's help along the way, we could have been devastated."
Jarpa noses out at Panamera who refuses to do so.
However, since the King was present, he held his fist quietly without any objection.
And the king asked Panamera with his side of Jarpa.
"... do you think Baron Van helped the Vicomte?"
With that, Panamera opened her mouth with a smile.
"First of all, there's no doubt. There is no one in the country who can do that but the Baron."
I looked at Panamera with a face that Jarpa couldn't understand. And Panamera shrugged her shoulders, and opened her mouth again against the king.
"... Your Majesty will actually see him, but he has incredible power in every respect. And be more careful than anyone while understanding it. Perhaps we are now retreating to our own territory and developing new weapons against the power of the Kingdom of Yelinetta."
That said, the king nodded lightly and agreed.
"Hmm, I see. The boulder is the Vicomte. You're only familiar with the one-fifth alliance of Baron Van. Soon, we will have to move again to recapture the Scudder, but to help in doing so...."
Panamera speaks of his vision for the king, and gives his opinion again.
Jarpa was watching them interact with each other in a complicated way.
Meanwhile, Van enjoyed his home for the first time in a long time.
After being thoroughly flamed in bed, they brew luxury tea with a rich aroma, and finish late breakfast with freshly baked bread, steamed potatoes, and crispy bacon.
"Delicious! Thank you for dinner!
Yes, thank you.
Saying that in a good mood, Till lowers the empty dishes with a smile.
"Van, what will you do today?
That's what Camsin asked with a difficult face, and Van roared without breaking down the laid-back atmosphere.
"Hmm... I don't know what to do. I took part in the war. I think I've fulfilled my duty as a nobleman."
And Arte opens his mouth to a van with an obviously unmotivated face.
"... I saw the war for the first time, but I felt it was a terrible place where people were dying lightly. If you can, I don't want Van to go anymore."
It was Arte who said so sadly, but everyone smiled back because Arte clearly had the biggest result in the previous war.
Surprisingly, Arte didn't care much about kicking off a group of soldiers or cutting off Wyburn's neck. At the stage of participating in the war, he was firmly prepared to die and take his life. The only thing I don't like is the death of people close to me.
Van broke into "Samurai", but Till and Camsin were the same, so he gave up because of common sense differences.
"... but Panamera, an ally, will also participate. I don't know if I can help you with anything."
After murmuring, Van sighs and takes a seat.
"Okay, let's develop a new weapon. If you deliver it, you will have been adequately assisted. Now that Panamera has my ballista, it turns out she has enough power to take on Wyburn. I think we can do something with a weapon that's a little more responsive to the air."
As he murmured to ask himself, Van left the lord's house.
"Nh!? Master Van! Again!?
"If we go, we'll be ready soon!
As Van walked through the village, all the knights and villagers who saw him uttered brave voices. Meanwhile, adventurers with battle experience nodded with a bitter smile.
"After an overwhelming victory, it's going to look like that."
"No, just because you retreated, doesn't that mean you lost?
"Technically, it's a complete victory."
The conversation was flickering, and Van took a slightly annoying step.
Meanwhile, he reached the outskirts of the village of Seat, and Dee, Arb, and Row, who noticed Van's appearance, raised their faces.
"Oh, Van. Have you raised your sanity?
"Eh, are you ready?
"I want to slow down a little bit more."
Hearing the voices of the three of them, Van gently shook his neck to the left and right.
"I don't think I can definitely win by participating in the war as it is. That's why I'm going to develop a weapon that's going to make a decision."
When they answered, the three of them glanced at each other and turned to Van again.
"... you still want a new weapon?
"... that much more?
"... are you kidding me?
In response, Van shows an innocent smile.
"Wouldn't it be better to have a higher chance of winning?
When Van said so, Dee burst out laughing, and Arb and Row smiled back bitterly.
Waving one hand to the three of them to say goodbye, Van approached Belle and Lango to unload the carriage.
"Welcome home!
Belle and Lango and the slaves who were employees of the Chamber of Commerce turned around.
"Ah, Van!
"Long time no see."
The first victory in the first round, it's a boulder.
He laughs at the face of the Bellango Chamber of Commerce, who comes in with a sad smile, whispering a negative word.
"No, no, we're losing. I just made a face and ran away."
When he answered, Bell pulled his chin with a smile.
Really? The timing of the battle and the success of the Knights' retreat, the key to our defense… I think it was the best way for Van to strike the best outcome intact?
Van answers the words with his shoulders up.
"It just so happens. I haven't thought and acted so far... well, how was shopping? Did you find it?"
Belle and Lango looked back at each other with a smile, then took out their luggage with a suspicious look on their face.
"This is it, right? It certainly matches the characteristics I was told, but I wonder if this is really good...."
As Lango puts the item in front of Van, a question mark appears on the heads of those around him.
It is a model that creates a triangle with a wooden bar. The triangles stand side by side and are assembled at the top and bottom to form a three-dimensional shape.
At the center of the triangle there was a long stick, which looked like a toy like a child.
Looking at it, a nine-year-old van brightens his eyes.
"Exactly Trebuchet! I knew there was something like this!
Everyone glances at Van, who flies pebbles on a miniature catapulter with great joy.
However, Till and Camsin only looked at his appearance with a bitter smile, but somewhere he felt trusted.
