I am the Monarch

------------------------------------

Aaron and Roan found Iow's barracks again with Fence.

“Hmm.”

Iow listened to Fence's report and was troubled.

Fence and Oren.

The location of their arsenal was different, but too different.

In addition, he was confident that it was the primary storage, not the secondary and tertiary storage.

One of them was most likely a trap for the enemy.

Or maybe they were both enemy traps.

At that moment, Oren mutters in a slightly uneasy voice.

“Our division has been steadily expanding since it was founded with the funds and sponsorship of Earl Philips. There are currently more than 300 active people. It's the size of a messy small army. ”

The eyes turned to Fence.

“Information in the eastern region also began analyzing collections as soon as the war began. There's a good chance that the storage unit we found on our end is real. ”

The fence shows no response.

‘We've been analyzing information since before the war began. ’

I wanted to, but I couldn't.

It was good for me to hide the identity of Chris Travel Agency as much as possible for later.

But Aaron didn't want to put up with it.

“Looks like our young friend is ignoring our intelligence squad. ”

He spoke with a somewhat offensive look and voice.

“Just by looking at the number of active personnel, there are definitely few units of information on our side. But we've already located the Eastern Empire Supply Depot several times. And we have the power to preempt and eliminate their Tributes. Already with considerable majors

Squad. ”

In response, Oren shuts up.

He may be under the patronage of Earl Philips, but he is still an ordinary citizen.

I dare not vomit at the baron's words.

However, I thought of an unpleasant look in my eyes and pride in Abnegation that I still could not surrender.

At that moment, you hear Roan's voice.

“Either way, we need a confirmation process. ”

Everyone nods.

Roan looks at Oren and says,

“Since our 7th legion has decided to check if the information they found on our side is real, why don't you check with them to see if it's real? ”

“Us?”

Oren looks forward to an unexpected offer.

Io, who was listening, slapped his knee.

“That would be nice. ”

It would be much easier for the parties to confirm the facts themselves.

Aaron and Oren ponder briefly, nodding at the same time.

“Obviously, if you see it with your own eyes, there won't be any useless noise. ”

You won't hear the sound of tipping over the fact that you intercepted the ball.

In the face of a great battle, we had to stop our allies from dividing.

“Yes. See for yourself whether they are authentic. ”

Io's orders.

Aaron, Roan, Fence and Oren bow their heads at the same time.

“Yes, I understand. ”

A short but powerful answer.

The four of you were taken together and confident.

Roan grabs Fence by the shoulder as he leaves Iow's barracks.

“Mr. Pence. ”

Fence turns his head to look at Roan.

Roan looks straight at the fence's eyes and says,

“I believe information has come from Mr. Pence, Chris Travel Agency and intelligence agencies. ”

“Ah.......”

Fence bursts low elasticity.

When Roan saw it, he smiled faintly.

“Let's show people who really is the best information organization. ”

He was confident.

It wasn't because I remembered the storage unit.

When Fence first came running with a piece of paper with the location of the mass storage.

The look on his face.

‘A face full of conviction. ’

The fence was more thorough and discreet than necessary.

Thanks to him, his mouth and actions were heavy and his face was consistent.

He smiled brightly.

‘If I don't trust my people, who will? ’

Roan believes in Fence.

The fence with the brightest smile.

* * *

The next day, a small squad leaves the Lansfield camp.

The soldier size was quite small because it was just a matter of verifying the authenticity of the military reservoir.

In the twelve squadrons, the numbers were less than 40 because they were trying to recruit soldiers with good stamina.

Leading them is one thing, Roan.

He was escorted by Aaron and the 7th legion to the occupied lands of the Istell Kingdom Army.

Roan moved only at dusk and dawn, dividing another group of less than 40 people into five.

Reason for dismantling small squads again.

It wasn't just to avoid the enemy's eyes.

‘If the arsenal is real, we should secure a passageway to get close access to avoid enemy eyes. ’

Roan doesn't intend to complete the mission by simply checking the storage and returning.

He was looking to the next level.

Movement speed was very supportive.

But Roan was not in a hurry, and so were the soldiers.

They never disobeyed Roan's orders.

It was not until we moved Ahre that we arrived at the Primary Warehouse located deep in the eastern occupied area.

A reservoir situated in a basin between mountains and mountains.

‘It is positioned in a typical location. ’

Easy to get to and from the frontline troops not too far away.

Plus, it stretches from east to west.

It was the best place to store and supply supplies.

Moreover, unlike the last fake reservoir, there was a considerable force stationed there.

Tons of tents and sacks, infernos and soldiers.

Is this really a military storage facility? ’

Roan instructs the troops to scour the structure of the armory, sending them up and down the mountainside.

At the same time, he climbs to the top of the mountain.

‘Fortunately, there's nothing blocking my view. ’

Climbing to the top of the nocturnal mountain, the Eastern Empire's arsenal of military supplies catches your attention.

A level that laypeople can only estimate the shape of.

But Roan was different.

He had Kalian's tears.

‘This is a well-organized camp. ’

Roan focused his gaze on the rest of the armory.

At that time, the place looked enormous as if it were in front of my nose.

It's been a while.

Nothing unusual was found.

"He's pretty good at this….."

When I thought about it, one of the sights stood out.

A young soldier approaches a middle-aged soldier, circling around the tent like a patrol.

At first glance, it looks very natural.

But the problem was what the young soldier was carrying.

"Report?"

Bunch of paperwork mixed with old paper and rough leather.

The report was clear.

Although it did not appear to be the correct content, it was a letter that subtractively filled one side.

"A common soldier reads? ’

Aaron, Gail, Mendel and others were greatly surprised when he revealed that he could read and write as well.

It was very rare for an ordinary soldier who risked his life to fight the battlefield to know writing.

The middle-aged soldier of Estelle wags at the paper for a while, then gestures at the other soldiers.

The creatures circling the center of the reservoir gather one by one.

Then I started reading the report by turning to each other.

All the soldiers can read? ’

In this day and age, there was no possibility of more than a dozen soldiers.

‘Something's wrong. ’

Those who humble themselves.

In this age, such existence was only a knight.

"If they are knights......."

There was a way to find out.

Roan spills Mana into both eyes, precisely Calian's tears.

At that moment, the world turned into a golden wave.

“Ah.......”

Low elasticity flows from Roan's mouth.

A golden tide filling the camp, Mana.

Manas were moving very roughly, unlike other places.

Besides...

‘Mana flows through the bodies of soldiers patrolling the center of the camp. ’

Indeed, they were not ordinary soldiers.

"Knights of the Estelle Kingdom. ’

Not that I'm in the middle of anything, but that's a great article.

That number was over 500 people.

More than two knights. ’

No matter how important the arsenal was, there was no reason to place 500 knights behind it.

Moreover, it was strange to dress the proud knights in the armor of ordinary soldiers.

‘Trap.’

The thought of filling your head.

Because thousands of ordinary soldiers are guarding the outside of the camp, it looks like a real military reservoir, but there are knights hiding in the center.

‘If it weren't for Callian's tears, it would have been dangerous. ’

A sigh of relief came out.

‘From now on, we need to use Kalian's tears more actively. ’

I have been refraining from making the most of it due to extreme pain.

‘But there's been a lot of that pain since that day. ’

The moment I escaped from a fake army reservoir in the Eastern Kingdom.

Since the heat eruption in your body, managing Mana has become easier.

I feel that Mana who was violent and rough has become somewhat mild.

For that reason, even when I shed Mana's tears, it wasn't as painful as it used to be.

‘We were not able to find the cause of the cold season, but it became a little easier to learn the Flamdor Mana. ’

Of course, it's still slow to build Mana.

After meticulously completing the internal structure and deployment of the troops in the weapons depot, Roan climbs down the mountain.

There were soldiers gathered at the rally point one day.

After asking each other for their opinions, most of them found nothing unusual.

Sometimes I just said I didn't feel well.

But the fence was definitely different.

“It certainly looks like a real reservoir, given the location and structure of the camp, the number of troops, and the composition. But.......”

He hesitates for a moment and says,

“Their armor, their weapons, their weapons, their movements, they are too strong. Now, the storage unit is important, but given the deadlock of the current line, it's hard to make sense to put these forces in the rear. ”

At that, Roan nods, smiling faintly.

Fence was unable to figure out the flow of Mana due to Kalian's tears, but instead he examined the soldiers' armed state and face and came to the same conclusion as Roan.

“I think so, too. They don't look like defenders guarding a military reserve. ”

Roan whispers in a small voice.

“An assailant trying to charge at the enemy right now. ”

He takes a deep breath.

Eyes turn to the armory beneath the mountain.

“This place is..."

He smiles bitterly at Fence.

“Looks like a trap. ”

Perhaps Oren and his sources have been scouting and analyzing the reservoir thoroughly.

‘I almost fell for it, too. ’

Roan looks at Fence.

‘But Mr. Fence found something strange without Callian's tears. ’

I was amazed at his ability.

‘Why wasn't this person known in the last life? ’

Chris and Oren were the most famous people in Agence.

I had no memory of Fence at all.

Even Roan had no idea until now.

The fact that Fence, who had just lived that life in the past, had a very large role to play in achieving abilities that he had never imagined in this life.

* * *

Roan, Fence and the soldiers safely return to the Lancefield camp.

The same goes for Oren and the other Abnegation informants.

Aaron, Roan, Fence and Oren find Io's barracks again.

‘It's decided. ’

Io was able to guess the results without even asking.

Aaron smiling faintly and Oren with a stiff expression.

But that doesn't make any decisions based on assumptions.

“Is the authenticity obscured? ”

At that, Aaron lowers his head, hiding his inner face.

“Unfortunately, the arsenal that Abydon found was a trap. ”

He gave Ioan the information he collected, analyzed and organized.

Iow looks up at the blob of paper and asks Oren.

“How's Abnegation? ”

In response, Oren grimaces his lips for a moment and replies with a sinking voice.

“Based on Abnegation's findings, the mass storage unit found in the 7th Army Intelligence Squad.......”

He lets out a short sigh before speaking.

“I'm guessing it's real. ”

Aaron's face brightens even more.

On the other hand, Roan and Fence did not change their faces.

Iow looks closely at the lump of paper Oren gave him, then nods.

“Good work to both the 7th and Abbey. Thanks to you, we were able to cover up the real arsenal and traps. ”

He looks at the commander of the left and right knights, the commander of magic, and the commander of the Territory.

“Finally, a chance to end the war. ”

They faced each other at sunset and devised strategic tactics to discuss how to raid the arsenal.

“Whew.”

Iow sighed for a long time with a gentle expression.

“Then let each commander prepare to march. ”

“Yes!”

Finally, everyone responded in one voice to the command.

Then Aaron, Roan, Fence and Oren were able to leave Io's barracks.

Oren stands in front of the fence before they even take a few steps.

“Mr. Pence. ”

Blunt expression and voice.

But his eyes were shining fiercely.

He reaches out his right hand.

“This time we.......”

Oren hesitates for a moment and says again.

“No, I lost. I realized I still didn't have enough. ”

Fence grips Oren's hand quietly.

“I just neglected to observe the people because I only cared about the location and structure of the camp, the number and composition of the troops. ”

I was a little surprised by Roan listening next to me.

‘I see what Oren is up to. ’

I was definitely a person.

Oren looks directly into Fence's eyes.

“I won't lose next time. ”

Fence, who was silent, said with an indifferent look on his face.

“You can win next time, Mr. Oren. ”

Oren frowns in unexpected words.

Are you pitying me? ’

When I think about it.

Fence's words continue.

“I just want our allies to win. ”

A heavy word.

Oren's face hardens.

He glances at Fence for a moment and lets go of his hand, then moves on.

Aaron mutters in a small voice, looking at the distant Oren's back head.

“You took one or two punches with Pence. ”

Fence just laughed at that.

Roan smiles, tapping the shoulder of such a fence.

“Mr. Pence and his informants had a hard time finding a storage unit.......”

My voice went out of my mind.

“I will reward you with victory. ”

Fence replied briefly.

“Yes, that's all I need. ”
