I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated (WN)

"The army can't move right now..."

Marmano tells Fran that in a bitter voice.

"Why?"

"Three days ago, on the southwestern border, the end of the war with the Bashar kingdom was opened."

Seriously. That was my first ear. But then I knew what Marmano meant by words.

"We have also sent more than half of our soldiers from this Gringoat"

"Isn't he gone?

"At present, in the remaining soldiers in Gringoat, not very much, but challenging more than 10,000 warcraft into the field, etc..."

Marmano bows his head Gabba.

"Sorry! But the villages and towns around here will evacuate for this gringoat. This is the only place that has enough walls to prevent the armies of the Warcraft. There's no way we can't defend ourselves without soldiers!

There are only caged castles, more than not enough soldiers to challenge the field. And even if I said I would stand in the castle, I wouldn't even be able to cage the castle without some soldiers.

"Is there anyone in this city who can use earthwork? If we can build a big wall with it, we can buy time."

"There is only one user of earth magic enough to stop the army in our country. But the man is the central figure in the battle against the Bashar kingdom. You won't be able to call me here."

"Yes."

"We will immediately make a reinforcement request to other territories, etc. Even to the army assembling in the south!

"How long will you be here?

"... sooner or later, it will take a few days... Until then, I can't leave. We can't drain soldiers right now."

If there are only critical troop numbers, I can also understand the saying that I don't want to drain them in vain. Whether or not that is satisfactory.

At the expense of the northern villages in the end, but to save the others. As a lord, it is a supremely natural decision. I can't blame you for that.

Fran figured it out, too, and stood up on the spot.

"Okay."

"Oh yeah...... Oh, which way?

"I don't need you here anymore. Go to Adventurer Guild"

"Of, why don't you stay down?

As for Marmano, you want Fran to stay in this city. Citizens are relieved just to say that there are people of rank A equivalent strength, and the morale of soldiers is increased. It should actually make a huge contribution in defense as well.

If you think only of the numbers, it would be less damaging to abandon a few people in the northern villages and save tens of thousands of people caged in this city.

But Fran couldn't have known. Turn to Marmano and tell him pale.

"I can't. I will never abandon my countrymen"

That was nothing else, sarcasm to the lord, etc. It simply means that you don't want to abandon your fellow Black Cat clan.

But they didn't sound that way to Marmano. He distorts his face in remorse and stands up on the spot.

I thought I pissed you off, and you don't seem to be. Apparently, his own creed is that he wants to jump out and save people right now. But because I'm good as a lord, I can't take that option.

"Sorry...... no! Best wishes to the villages of the north......!

Marmano bowed his head deeply against Fran so as to shrink the giant.

"Okay."

"He Ji...!

Flying out of Marmano's mansion, Fran stormed Gringoat's Adventurer Guild with the momentum. It's just a central city around here, and it's pretty big.

"Though."

"Oh, Lord Black Thunder Princess. How you doing, sir?

"I have urgent business with the Alliance Master. Let me see you right away."

"... ok"

Here again, Princess Black Thunder's alias helps. Without asking anything, the receptionist immediately moved on to action. And he comes back less than three minutes later and leads Fran under Gilmouth.

Gilmouth of Gringoat is an old magician with a bright white mustache. It has also evolved and is quite powerful.

"Lord Black Thunder, what is it?

"Warcraft armies looming from the north"

"What? What do you mean?

To the amazing Alliance Master, Fran explains everything. He seemed surprised at first, but the Alliance Master seemed to have recovered quickly.

"More than 10,000 troops?

"I want the adventurers to help me."

"That's natural. Summon the Adventurers immediately. But..."

Roaring, worried about how to deal with it.

"Is there a problem?

"Many headed for the southern border. The number of adventurers in Gringoat is now halved."

"Aren't adventurers going to take part in the war?

At the time of accession, I read the Adventurer Alliance rules lightly, but the Adventurer said he was not obliged to respond to national conscription or anything like that when the war broke out.

Many say to adventurers who are free citizens and do not belong to the country that they do not want to take part, such as disputes between countries. If we make a rule that we have to respond to conscription, etc., adventurers will leave the guild.

As regards the principle of non-participation in war, it is formally arranged between the State and the Alliance. Instead, it could also be said that it undertakes the exorcism of warcraft and bandits.

But a long time ago, the Reids kingdom ignored the rules and tried to force the adventurers into conscription. Threaten to punish me if I defy you. And the adventurers who rebelled against it left the Reids Kingdom, and ended up losing a great deal of war. That Adventurer Guild itself is gone, and they still have very few Adventurers in Reids.

Since then, there has been no movement in each country to use adventurers for war. Of course, there are very few adventurers who sign contracts individually or who say they want to participate voluntarily because they are from that country. Amanda and Jean are the types.

But forced conscription through the guild was taboo.

"It wasn't a request from the state, they turned to it of their own free will. This is a country for beasts. Soldiers and knights aren't the only ones who want to protect it."

The Beast Nation is a special country for beasts. The present king is also an adventurer, and the relationship between the guild and the country is good. Perhaps it is natural for the beastly adventurers from this country to voluntarily attempt to take part in the war.

"Calling adventurers from surrounding towns and villages may not gather enough people to act as an army"

"Still, I want some fighting power"

"I understand. But in some cases we may only gather enough people to focus on the defense of this city. That's all you know."

"...... hmm. Okay."

"Can you come back?

The Alliance Master speaks out against the stood up Fran. That face says he wants to hold back, but he didn't say anything after that. There is a Black Cat village to the north, and Fran is Black Cat. I guess I know that.

"Bubba."

"Good luck..."
