Hero’s Redo ~ A Hero That Once Saved the World Reborn as a Girl ~

Episode 123: Raid on the Marquis's Mansion in Billago

- Magna Perspective

By the ambush of my incompetent brother, who is also synonymous with that fool, my life changed from what it was until then. This was when we had the goal of reining in a group of steeds who squandered the country's taxes like hot water and managed to make it sound, without playing and fulfilling their obligations. That incompetence, to say I'm retarded, is also royal for once, and I thought you'd choose a slightly smarter way to get rid of me, but my outlook seemed sweet.

I never thought I'd take direct means so far. Thanks to it, little by little, and surely my men, who were growing in power in each area, were eliminated, and the vast majority of them don't even know if it's cheap. I think quite a few of them fled because they seemed to be primarily targeting the Knights when the enemy's actual work force ambushed them... Still, losing many of my men I grew up with by hand salt is the extreme of my hatred.

All I can say is thank you to my men for letting me go in situations where even my own life is at stake.

Having managed to escape, I once tried to rely on the leading nobility of my faction outside the Wang Capital. If we leave a lot of power in the country, if we get back on our feet and sit tight, we'll be able to fight the Steeds. But I will soon overturn the idea. Mainly for two reasons.

First of all, we don't have enough power. A mysterious group of black knights who pioneered the Steeds. Most of our knights have been taken over, so we don't have enough power to fight properly. There are arms handlers here who can manage to counter it if they are one-on-one, but they don't have enough strength to mask the difference in numbers. Besides, there was an overwhelming shortage of commanders in the field because the knights also acted as troop leaders who commanded and fought soldiers. This will not lead to a cohesive military operation.

And secondly, because if we cracked the country and the great armies bumped into each other, instead of intervening in other countries, we even expected an invasion of the demons. Even when I think of the face of a fool who had a coup or something at a time when I just needed the power of war, I don't get the slightest distraction where I let him curse in my heart.

But if you keep letting that incompetent do whatever you want with your country, not far from it, the Kingdom of Bordeaux will be ruined. To name a few, I thought of what was going on, I came up with one operation.

The nobles belonging to my faction, who are still alive, were prepared to march, and the information was circulated to the king's capital. Naturally, there are also woven deceptive information there that says I'm hidden, and Steed, who has only a simple head, will turn that way for most of his battle to stab me in the stomach this time. And only a handful of our elites secretly infiltrated the king's capital to storm the royal castle in reverse, an operation to raise Steed's neck.

There's anxiety in terms of power, and there's no guarantee that this one will leave the king's capital, but there's no other way. And when we finally decided tonight, we had an unexpected raid.

"What's the matter!?

Mansion that has become noisy with Russia. When I raised my voice unexpectedly to the sound of a sword trident heard from afar, a wounded guard knight rolled into my room. He is puckering his mouth as he gasps as he manages to get his rough breath done.

"And it's an enemy attack! There are a handful of enemies, but because of their horrible arms, they have no teeth at all! Master Magna, evacuate quickly!

"Are you a black knight!?

"No, it's two women! But with arms that don't even reach under your feet such as the Black Knight...! It won't last long like this!

Two women!? You said you collected even those black knights cutthroat handlery in this mansion, and even those guys can't stand their teeth!? I haven't got the information that that Steed has such a strong man on his side. When the hell...? But we'll find out later. Now we have to get away from here anyway. The door was blown from the outside at exactly that moment as he rushed after the leading knight and tried to get out of the room.

"Come on! Stand back, Your Highness!

"I will protect you even if you die!

I was already ready, looking at the backs of the knights who stood in front of me ready to die. I can't help but slay a few more enemies who have broken through so many battles so far. Falling in the middle of your mind is a business belly, but it may be salvation in a sense not to see the country that was born and raised by that fool perish. At least I set up an unfamiliar sword to let him bathe a machete, and that's when I heard a distracted voice coming from across the door.

"I wanted to be there. I knew I was here, Ciel."

"Damn... why is this happening? Because Karin is impotent."

It was the two women who showed up as reported. One is supposedly a warrior and the other a wizard because of his robe looks, but I guess they're both pretty strong.

"Uh, I'll check, are you sure you're Prince Magna?

One crack of a woman - to the inquiry of her daughter, known as Ciel, the knights lay their swords when they solidified sassy around me. It's like that's all the answers out there, but I was willing to dare ask questions with this girl.

"I don't know. I'm the Magna. I'm pretty sure they're Steed's men who came all the way out here, huh?

"Oh, no, you don't. We don't want to be hostile to you."

"... what?

There was an unexpected voice-over in the unintelligible response. Not the enemy? You're going to keep it so forceful in and say things that don't make sense now? What's that aim? You want to confuse us? But with the strength of these two, you should be able to take my neck without such a soothing hand. What the hell is this all about?

"Just kidding! You're defeating our people now!

That's how a knight whose colleague is supposed to have been sacrificed yells. But now the other daughter - Karin - denied it.

"It's a misunderstanding! We did match the swords, but we're all beaten! I'm not killing one just because I'm fainting!

There's no way she's lying to her, waving her hands boom like she panicked. But it's incredible to Russia. He forcefully broke through his protection without killing anyone and came to see me, now arguably the most precious bounty neck in the country. If a third party heard of a situation like this, they would surely laugh it off at the edge.

"I'm sorry I disturbed you. But believe me. We are not your enemies. We're with Rubias."

"What!? Rubias!?

More than a month ago, I was given the name of my sister, who had been kept out of the news because she said she was going to be doing martial arts training, and I, the boulder, couldn't forbid surprises either. With that said, I remember these two, like I've seen them somewhere before. Though I've never met him in person, I feel like I saw him in Rubias' colleague's dossier. I see... they are indeed the mighty ones to name as brave men. Besides getting the title of Dragon Slayer, he is also a gold-ranked adventurer. Does that mean I can convince you of this strength?

"We were asked by Rubias to just come and check on the King's Capital. And if you can, I also want you to grab the news of Prince Magna...... I made this noise with a few mistakes, but I want to tell you more about the circumstances, so can I have my sword put away for now?

Ciel looks at the knights casually as she scratches her head with Polypoli. With the attention of the knights looking back at what was going on, I was unexpectedly out of my shoulder strength, with a grand sigh.

Unfortunately for the knights knocked over with a little bit of a mistake, but as far as I can tell by their words, fortunately, there doesn't seem to be any dead. Then we shouldn't make any more noise.

"... let's talk. Put down your swords, too. And hurry up with the wounded."

Damn, that stupid sister! You could have a word or so in advance if you were to give me such a monster! I sat on the couch somewhat, cursing Rubias in my heart.
