Episode 689: The First Formation of Clan 'Stars' ③

Luu and the others were dropped off by the knights of the Knights of the Kingdom of Valentine's Knights Jetre branch and left again.

Again, we rode to the Kelpies heading south.

After a while, Cassandra gets angry when she can't see the knights.

"What pity! Is that still a knight?

Minmi also followed in the words of Cassandra, full of anger and mourning.

"I agree too! Cassandra is right. Those who are unwilling to fight are the ones who fight..."

Fran beside him was lost listening to Cassandra and Minmi.

I do know the anger of Cassandra and the others...

But I didn't feel like the knight had any aspirations.

The same is true of Rene, who runs rocked by Kelpy's back beside him.

If I were in the same position...

I didn't think it was good to die in vain.

In the meantime, Lew did not change his serene expression.

Moral is also smiling silently.

After a moment, Luu opened his mouth.

"Ha ha, Dr. Cassandra, and Minmi too... that's not true"

Both Cassandra and Minmi are surprised by the unexpected words of Luu's denial.

"Huh?"

"Why?"

Here Luu asked the two of us about the knight.

"Ha, can you see the true strength of knights in a mass battle called Army vs. Army, both of us?

"In mass warfare…"

"The true strength of a knight?

Suddenly asked, Cassandra and Minmi get stuck in words.

It is by no means a difficult question, but what Luu denied earlier draws its tail.

Two people don't answer, so I'll try to state Fran's general answer.

"Sir, of course mobility by horses is strength as a warrior backed by tough health and exceptional martial arts......?

When I heard Fran's answer, René nodded loudly, too.

I must have tried to say the same thing now.

"Ha, Fran. The answer is correct. It's not a mistake, but it's strength as a knight's 'piece'. Alongside the spiritual stronghold of chivalry,"

"Strength as an individual...... is it?

Meanwhile, Moral remains silent.

She probably understands what Lou is trying to say.

But I'm not the type to talk and talk like I'm good here.

"Ha, then there are a few correct answers, but let's say one of them. The greatest strength of a knight in a mass battle lies in the size of a horse that psychologically intimidates and overwhelms his opponent."

"Yep!

"Psychologically intimidating and overwhelming?

"Oh, a knight on a horse with armor wrapped around him looks so big from the other side. That's what's coming in a bunch with a big spear (Lance), make the ground sound... you'll feel terrible"

If the earth shook so much that a large group of knights approached, the psychological effect would be great for a normal enemy.

If we lose our will, it will be even worse.

"A terror-driven opponent emerges, ravaging and annihilating at once when he is in turmoil. That is the ideal method of warfare for knights. That's why I excel in short-term showdowns, and vice versa, I'm not suitable for wear out fights"

At the end of Rue's explanation, Fran asked the question again.

"Sir, I understand the strength of a knight in a mass battle, but what does that have to do with the earlier matter of a knight?

"Oh, Fran. As far as I can tell, he understands the essence of how knights fight. Think about it, what if your opponent doesn't know how to fight a knight in any way?

"Any way I'm good at fighting...... it doesn't make sense!?

Fran opened her eyes wide.

For a wizard, good attack magic is close to being nullified.

Lew's story continues as he looks at Fran with a surprise look on his face.

"There is a wide variety of opponents that such methods of warfare do not pass. Demons who attack by asking for high ranking advanced demons and overwhelming numbers who are good at ranged attacks, as well as immortals without emotions (undead) … Suppose melee is fundamental and knights with only the skill to fight physical attacks are not opponents who can fight under superior conditions…"

"Oh, oh..."

Now Rene raised an unspeakable voice.

It appears that a knight struggled behind her brain.

"There are conditions that even if we do our best in tactics, we are low in numbers and supplies, so the battle is always forced to struggle. Tomorrow... you won't see."

…………

The Frans accidentally shut up.

Lew's "I don't see tomorrow" doesn't even mean despair, because it was a clear expression of the plight of the local knights.

I saw how they were doing, Lew, but now I'm gonna start talking about something different.

"The ideals that each of us envisions are beautiful and wonderful. If all the ideals are realized, it will be the best world for those who set it up, at least, to live a life free of remorse."

To put it this far, Lew exhaled "ugh".

"But ideals are ideals. Before that there is a reality full of hurdles that hold back the way we go. We just have to scratch our best to survive."

"They too... are they"

Now Min Mi squeaks.

From her expression, the discomfort with the knight I showed earlier had completely disappeared.

"Oh, Minmi. Just like you thought. At least the earlier knights are doing their best to protect the people with the safety of their men in mind. If we're wizards, they might say it's our duty to protect these villages because they have so much power."

"We also have a lot of circumstances and conveniences, and it's always difficult to protect..."

Minmi shook her neck left and right at Luu's inquiry.

From the 'working' of villages under threat of demons, it would be natural to think that someone from 'the fighting' should protect themselves.

That's not why you have to be a knight to the people of the village.

If they'll do the job for us, they'll probably tell us they don't mind if we do.

"Exactly. So you just have to do your best as it stands. We are merely representatives of the adventurers, the fighters who were hired for money. That's okay."

"" "" "Yes!

Everyone replied loudly to Luu's call.

Apparently, unity of will has been achieved on this occasion.

"But sir, you mustn't stop!

Moral opened his mouth here for the first time.

It's always a positive girlfriend statement.

"Oh, moral, I am. You have to think about it so that you can look higher so that you don't stall. I don't think there's a better way."

Here Fran raised his hand well.

He wants to state the last thing he thinks.

"Sir! I think it's the best thing we can do right now to cultivate superior wizard backwardness with all this experience."

"Oh Fran, I think so too! That's certainly one of the best things to do. Come on... we'll be in touch with our enemies in a few moments, let's do our best for their knights"

"" "" "" "Ooh!

The members of the Clan Star (Stella) gave a loud voice to Luu's call again.
