I’m the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!

Cosmo, who leads the pirate fleet, had a bitter face.

It's Hampson who gives the orders.

The resupply base was knocked out by Banfield. But they are greedy for supplies. Hit Liam inside now. "

Cosmo spits when he receives an order.

I thought it was your policy not to fight Liam?

You're throwing away that policy? Hampson responds promptly to such a question.

At this rate, our supplies will be exhausted first. If the Crown Prince hadn't brought in the extra luggage, he would have had a little more room. ”

Unnecessary luggage is the righteous army.

The Expeditionary Force could have fought just a little longer without even the Righteous Army.

There was no need to slap Liam in the face.

"The number of ships led by Banfield is less than 30,000." Beat up the 60,000 ships you lead and the pirates you've joined. "

Cosmo was worried about the number.

"Don't say it so easily!" He was good at turning things upside down. You're not as good as Klaus, but if you're going to fight, you're going to have the strength you deserve! "

Your fleet told me to send reinforcements, and Hampson was expecting them.

"--Okay, but only 30,000 ships can come out." If we scrape any more, we'll be in danger. ”

Cosmo narrows his eyes when he hears he's in danger.

"Is that how you're being pushed?"

Cosmo knew that Tier was good, but he knew it was within his common sense when compared to Liam and Klaus.

But Hampson's reaction was strange.

”I endured this onslaught. It's true that you're more sticky than expected."

Cosmo was suspicious of Hampson's remarks, which clung to his eyebrows.

(Do you do it more than you thought? As long as Liam and Klaus were careful, I thought the rest was within reason.)

After a few tens of seconds of working together, Cosmo seeks strength to fight Liam.

"Not enough. In addition to 30,000 ships, send Dustin." You're in your fleet, aren't you? "

Then, Hampson gave a stunned expression.

Ignoring my orders under the cover of my right to independence. There is a saying that you have to fight an unbeatable opponent to be the strongest, but it is because you are thorough that you are the Sword Saint. I'm impressed.

Sounds like a compliment, but Dustin's disappointment can be seen from Hampson's attitude.

Cosmo tongues.

The last Sword Saint of the Empire can't be counted on either.

◇

The Hampson-led fleet was attacking a planet that Tier defended.

A planet that has evolved within the boundaries of the Banff family will be storing and manufacturing large quantities of supplies needed for war.

There should be enough reserves for three million large fleets to be resupplied.

Hampson's plan was to drop him in a hurry and head for Trido's rescue.

I was trying to destroy each one of them, but Cleo's actions changed the schedule drastically.

The Mobile Knight Squad that seems to be the enemy's elite is taking heavy damage on the front line!

According to the operator's report, Hampson immediately issues an order.

"Send Dustin to me."

Then, another report comes in.

"An enemy Mobile Knight force has launched an attack on a retreating ally!"

The wars taking place here and there were recurring offensives and defenses.

Hampson, who wants to strike down the elite, commands Dustin to intercept. However, the person in question opens the communication and complains.

Deputy Commander, I've confirmed the situation.

Then you will become an elite unit of enemies.

"No, I think the rescue of the retreating ally is the first priority." My Mobile Knight Squad will now rescue friendly troops. ”

Hampson waved his fist to Dustin's arm to violate his orders.

"Your job is to beat up the best enemy units." You can leave the opponents of the shark to the other knights! "

However, in the Empire, the Sword Saint was granted the right to independence.

It was a force that could act on its own judgment if it had to, but it was out of the chain of command.

With that as his shield, Dustin chooses an enemy that's easy to fight.

'I have the right to independence. until we do what we need to do right now. "

Hampson gets angry when communications are cut off unilaterally.

A fake that only sticks to the title of Sword Saint!

◇

Dustin, who leads dozens of starships, was surrounded by his disciples in the hangar.

Roman swordsmen were given the state-of-the-art Mobile Knights built in the Imperial Factory.

It was built by collecting technology from all the weapons factories and data from all over the Empire.

The Banfields' mass-production machines are also excellent, but Dustin's Mobile Knights have risen to the top in terms of performance alone.

Dustin tells everyone that he is a subordinate and a disciple.

"Three swordsmen of the Empire have been broken, and I am the only one left. ― ― This situation is very fortunate.

The sword saints were torn apart, and I was the only one left.

And Dustin rejoiced in the presence of his disciples.

"There's no need to be afraid except for Liam. It seems that he took the Mobile Knight and recreated it for a moment, but what is different from a regular weapon?"

Liam was the only one to be afraid.

I was hoping we could take out the rest from a long-range artillery cannon.

"And in this battlefield, defeat as many enemies as possible." Numbers are justice. Regardless of how many powerful cultivators they defeat, the layman keeps an eye on them. Defeat ten more mortals than one mighty man. "

The disciples, who were taught by Dustin, do not dispute this word.

And he who uttereth has already been broken.

Dustin spawns into the Mobile Knight's cockpit.

(I also became a sword saint and became very miserable. I used to honor myself by honoring my skills and fighting the powerful. However, it was only the two great swordsmanships that were appreciated. It is difficult for lay people to understand which one is better.)

I used to be a swordsman.

However, even though Dustin became a sword saint and won the battle against the two swordsmen, the people of the Empire did not approve of Roman swordsmanship.

Dustin believed that Roman's swordsmanship was the strongest, but he couldn't forgive it.

(The Hampson who uses me as a friend is also an enemy. All you have to do is bump into the elite troops and compliment them on their exhausted and torn parts. My assessment is that I will be a defeated swordsman. "

Dustin had Dustin's thoughts.

It didn't come off, and if Dustin had followed Hampson's orders, he would have been overwhelmed.

A man named Hampson has no sense of value in the title of Sword Saint.

I was just looking at it as a token.

Sitting in the heat of the cockpit, Dustin asks to be confronted on the battlefield by a swordsman other than Liam.

(That said, I wanted a track record of defeating the flashy swordsman. Their necks are worth more than a hundred mortals - no, a thousand.)

◇

A planet with a supply base for the Expeditionary Force.

I set up a formation around it, and I was communicating with Thomas.

In front of me, I see Osan wiping his sweat off with a handkerchief.

Master Liam, we've finished loading supplies as you ordered.

"Well done. I'll escort you out of the battlefield."

'Yes, yes, but are you sure? If the main Imperial forces turn back, we will be fighting millions of ships. Isn't it impossible for Liam to deal with that number no matter how many? ”

How disrespectful you are to me! If I may say so, I cannot defeat millions of enemies with fewer than 30,000 Rock.

And I don't even think about doing it.

In the first place, the person who creates such a situation is a fool.

I can't come back, so I guess I'll stay here.

What? But...

I'll explain to Thomas, who's confused, in a voice that he can hear around him.

"Cleo's foolishness misjudged. I was in a good mood with more allies, so I made a mistake. All he had to do was do what he originally planned.”

When we hit the resupply base, we captured a large number of Imperial Generals and soldiers.

Based on the information they've gathered, Cleo chose to tap my star on his own when reinforcements arrived unexpectedly.

"--I immediately drove back the presence or absence." With limited supplies, I don't want to carry your luggage. ”

Cleo misjudged the overwhelming number of two million ships.

So it's a small number of people who come to take back this place?

"If you attack the star with all your might, you may have a chance to win." But do you think Cleo can pull out Klaus and drop the stars? "

No.

Klaus was right to leave the star he relied on the most.

On the other hand, even if I turned Klaus into a Ranger, I would have achieved a certain result, but I was better suited to it.

It's just that I noticed it here.

"Oops, it's a mistake to call Cleo a fool. He's a great talent."

Yes?

Thomas looks at me, calling me the best traitor, and he bends his head.

"You know what? You've moved so far at our convenience." In the meantime, I have to thank you. "

I don't want to give a pure thank you to the Conductor, but incompetent enemies are just like good allies.

I thanked the Conductor, but I also thanked Cleo for a few seconds.

I'll check the time and order Thomas to step back immediately.

"- It's about time, Thomas, you run."

Master Liam, good luck.

Martial arts luck? No. - I hope the hunting goes well.

◇

A few days after Thomas left.

Sitting in the seat on the bridge of Argos, I sigh at the enemies that have finally appeared.

"It's a few days later than expected. --This is proof that Tier is working hard?"

Ulysses, who was listening to me, stood beside me and stared at me nervously.

“The enemy fleet that emerged from short range warp is a regular army of the Empire, with the pirate fleet as its mainstay. We've identified other groups that may be pirates.”

"Did the pirates rely on their old friends?"

It's 120,000 at scale.

With more than four times as many enemies in front, the bridge is in a hurry.

I stand up from my seat and look at the enemy fleet on the monitor as I stretch out.

I'll praise you for coming to retrieve the base without running away.

The most I wanted to defeat in this battle was the pirate fleet that ravaged our territory.

I was determined to destroy you with my own hands.

Well, let's play.

Let's start with fleet warfare.
