Hakai no Miko

Episode 5: Sake Banquet

An unexpected plea from Adomius, who was an "Blackwall" officer during the return order, asked what he intended to do. And Adomius answers without precipitation.

"Lord Soma's homecoming decree is a matter of gratitude as the same Holmeer. Now, did you know that there are still many people hiding in mountain fields all over Holmeer?

To the pale horse who was surprised to see such people, Adomius put aside a beat before continuing his words.

"Mostly in the generals who were the elite of the National Army."

Adomius says that many of those who were called elites of the Holmeer National Army are such as the knights and the three sons and daughters of the Horsemen. They were professional soldiers, but they could not do anything but fight. When I returned home, I had no place to be.

They are also the ones who have defeated many enemies as the elite of the Holmeer nation. The resentment bought from the enemy is not the ratio of the soldiers of the other Holmeer countries. If you think that the resentment of that enemy extends to his parents, brothers, relatives, it was something that the other soldiers could hardly make it home knowing they had made it home safely.

Adomius says these people are still lurking all over the Holmeer country.

"If you have permission, we will find them and gather them here."

That is a suggestion I would not even wish for for the Ethereal Horse. Upon immediate acceptance, he made arrangements for the funds. And with that great sum of money, Adomius departed the king's capital, Holmenia, in a spirit of exasperation.

But shortly after that, one of the old ministers of the Holmeer Nation has advanced to the Ethereal Horse:

"I'm an officer of The Black Wall who will have some remorse for you. Your people will gather, but I'm sure they're going to build an army that will blade against you. It's not too late now. Let go of the chaser and slash his neck."

Nothing. It was a sell-in about how eye-catching and helpful I was, along with draining Adomius, who had been cooperative with the Ethereal Horse from an early stage and had become a step ahead of the humans in other Holmea countries.

But the Ethereal Horse did not listen to such a discourse, but truncated it under a word.

"That would be more helpful."

That was never due to glory or exaggeration.

If you take it to the Ethereal Horse, it would be a nightmare if disturbing molecules were lurking all over the place to wage guerrilla warfare.

Even the most powerful American army in the world was tormented by Vietnam War guerrilla warfare in Vietnam. It is also a nightmare situation that no longer even ends in the Afghan-Iraq war.

From the Ethereal Horse who knew them, it was much better to gather somewhere and flip an anti-flag against me.

With such certainty, the old minister of the Holmeer kingdom, who spoke with such certainty, lay down in haste, "I have offered not to need it," and walked away with a sleaze from the front of the pale horse.

Then, some time later, rumors broke out among the Old Ministers and the Hordes of the Holmeer Nation.

It is a rumor that:

"Apparently it's true that those hostile at the banquet said what it meant to smash them all together," he said.

Many of the old ministers and marquis said they trembled at this.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

It was the departure of Adomius, who had such a stifling, but he didn't quite come back.

I haven't heard from him in ten days. I don't even hear the tone out after twenty days. By that time, Michena and the finance officials had arrived late in King's Capital and were finally about to embark on laying the foundations of the country.

As a result, there was a dramatic increase in the work that Ethereal Horse also had to do, and he had lost consciousness about Adomius and so on because of his busy schedule.

And it was when a month was about to pass. Adomius finally returned to the king's capital, Holmenia.

"I'm sorry. It's a little tricky."

If there were a number of blue moles left in Adomius's face that apologize, the Ethereal Horse could have guessed that it was not a slight problem.

But that's what men say. The Ethereal Horse dared not ask about it.

More concerned than that are the men that Adomius brought.

That number is roughly three hundred. All of them are resilient men who just call themselves warriors because they see them.

Besides, the majority of them wore black armor.

Only one thing was allowed to wear black armor in the Holmeer country. It is only the "black wall", which was renowned as the most powerful in Holmea.

The black armor they were wearing in front of the Ethereal Horse was so perfectly polished and not one piece of mud that I didn't think they'd been lurking in the mountains for a month.

How proud they are of that armor by daring to wear polished armor to meet the Ethereal Horse, who is no longer an absolute strong man, and even to say, "Our own hearts are not broken!" He spoke more eloquently than words.

Also, they themselves and everyone had a sinister face. It is just an attitude that says how it has come to disapprove. Some of them even pointed to Adomius and made it clear, "I'm just here to talk to him because this guy says something about it".

Some criticized this attitude as "disrespectful to the defeated".

However, it is a modern Japanese Ethereal Horse known because it takes into account the situation of others by the time it is good. The "black wall" attitude also "would be grumpy if you told me to show my face to the person I lost," I would instead be frightened.

Shemru also enjoyed being "quite the spineless ones".

You didn't care about those two attitudes, the man who was the same officer as Adomius, leaves a long time ago.

"You are the son of destruction..."

That's what I said, then I look at the pale horse from the tip of his head to the tip of his fingernails as if it were worth it. Then, it rang.

"The battle ahead happened to be on your side. Regardless of Lord Darius, I don't think you've lost with us."

Plus the other "black-walled" officers nodded forcefully to show it.

In fact, General Darius had told us to foresee the measures of the Son of Destruction and to avoid a battle in the land that would be called Snomuta. With that in mind, a complete "black wall" commanded by General Darius could not have been such a great defeat.

That was the common sentiment of the "Black Wall" officers.

But there can be no "if" or "hypothetically" or "if" to win or lose a battle. Being fierce men through numerous battlefields, they are familiar with it. For that reason, it was only a shame to let go of saying that he had not lost to the Ethereal Horse, so to speak.

Originally, the howl of the loser and the abomination are almost upon him.

But the Ethereal Horse reacted differently.

"Yeah, I think so too."

The Ethereal Horse agreed to be stingy. It was the manifestation of the true pinnacle of the Japanese, who were told that self-humility was past.

It was the officers of the "Black Wall" who were troubled when that happened.

Strong enemies are the ones to praise. Fools who cloud their eyes with anger and hatred and do not recognize strong enemies as strong enemies can never win.

Yes, those who are strongly incensed by General Darius. The lower the Ethereal Horse gets, the more I can't wait to go back.

"... but it's also true that we lost"

Mouthwatering, but we had to admit our losses.

But that didn't make it possible to reconcile.

Either way, it is the Ethereal Horse, who has been a factor in General Darius' loss of leg and has since been regarded as his strongest rival in his life, and the officers of the "Black Wall" who revere his General Darius.

We didn't know how to treat each other after that, and we got giddy.

But even if we keep looking at each other like this, it won't be clear. So the Ethereal Horse decided to hold a feast of hospitality because he had come because of it for now.

Ever since their great defeat to the Ethereal Horse, they have been hiding in the mountains and indulging in hunger and thirst, there is no way they can refuse that invitation. All this time it was about temporarily forgetting the remorse of the past and being invited.

The welcome feast thus opened, but the subject in it was all about General Darius.

It is a classic feast for the "Black Wall" officers, whose tongues have been smoothed by alcohol, to talk about General Darius.

And that was both a pleasure for the Ethereal Horse.

General Darius and I can't help but necessarily vote for a female male.

Yes, he is a pale horse who has been ready for five years. That's why I remembered the strong interest and interest in General Darius. Various means have been employed to date, and the history and whereabouts of General Darius have been crushed, but the officers of the "Black Wall" on this occasion are those who were actually there. Facts and backstories pop up one after the other that the Ethereal Horse, who only knew General Darius by mankind, could not have known. There was no way this wasn't funny.

Also, the officers of the "Black Wall" were all those who were heartbroken by General Darius. There is nothing more enjoyable than talking about the feat of that General Darius. Not to mention that if that listener, the Ethereal Horse, were to show an honest admiration for every story, there would have been no better joy than this.

Where did the original giddy go and the feast was recommended in a soothing atmosphere.

However, he is a pale horse who is very weak in alcohol.

I refrained from drinking to the point where I didn't make the air on the spot worse, but it was the "black-walled" officers I was drinking with. Speaking of "black walls," the fierce men who represent the Holmeer nation, all of them alcoholics who drink instead of water.

I was attached to that, so no matter how modest I am, I quickly exceed my Ethereal Horse tolerance. Soon the Ethereal Horse turned bright red in her ears and face, and began to flutter her upper body even just sitting there.

Whenever I hear of General Darius' martial arts from the officers at the "Black Wall" in the meantime, I say, "Wow! Wow!" I didn't even know what that meant. I even started calling him, and finally we joined him and said, "Long live General Darius! It's no big deal, Son of Destruction!" It is the end of the chanting.

I was no longer but a complete drunk in anyone's eyes.

Shemr also shrugged back at this, and the Ethereal Horse was taken out of the banquet seat early on.

Like such a pitiful Ethereal Horse, the officers of the "Black Wall" laughed at each other, saying, "Compared to drinking, it was our great victory," and began to celebrate.

But there was someone who would listen to it.

"Don't listen to that. Look, compatriots of the earth."

"Dear Left, I must tell you that alcohol is not our enemy, my fellow beast."

It is Zug and Dvarin.

Nothing. I've just been smelling free liquor from nowhere. The two of them brought each of their compatriots to the banquet just to say, "Then we're the other".

Speaking of dwarves, they are a breed of alcoholics who were even told that they would be born and brewed before milk. And Zoog, and the warriors of Zoan whom he had brought, were no less drunken than Dwarves.

But at any time of difficulty, there are no two letters of retreat in the officers of the "Black Wall" who were told "just to advance and crush". Wherever I wanted, the drinking comparison began.

Compared to the drinks that started out that way, "Blackwall" officers still don't have a good share with Dwarf and Zoan in their opponents. One drunk after another came out. But still, that is the rigid man of the "black wall". A drunken man also came out of the servant Dwarves and the liquor lords of Zoan.

Empty barrels roll all over the place, and in the meantime, all humans, even Dwarves and Zoans, get drunk and expose themselves to fish-like ugliness.

It was Jaharngil who showed up at such a chaotic banquet.
