With the goal of attacking the hills of Eindrad, I thought the outing was over.

But it wasn't.

Until I get home, I'm on an ambulance.

I was relieved to finish Eindrad's hill offensive, and I thought it was all over.

But that never happened.

Nothing was finished yet.

Carlos' words were exciting after the feast with the liquor I had prepared.

"You guys all enjoyed the banquet. Keep your minds up. The next battlefield won't be as easy as this one."

"Huh? Next battlefield?

"That's right. This time I fought to reclaim this Eindrad hill. But it's not over yet. Now, you know that a separate team is heading north on this hill and another city? Let's go there next."

"Carlos, may I ask you a question? Wasn't the attack on that northern city a plot to distract the Ulks from the attack on Eindrad's hills here? If you attacked the hill, that's enough....."

"Ars, are you stupid? This hill of Eindrad was also a long-standing controversy between my Fontana and Urk, but the northern city is equally valuable. That's why House Ulk had to look at you."

"... that's right. That's what I'm hearing."

"We've also received reports from a detachment heading north toward the city. But the situation never seems to be alarming. That's why we need to get an army out of here right away and help with the attack."

"But what about this hill? I just took it, but you're going to withdraw it?

"You can't do that. This Eindrad will be temporarily deposited with you, Ars von Barca. Keep the hill guards tighter. I won't let you drop me before I drop the northern city."

"No!? Hold on a second. The Vulcan army is dominated by cavalry and has a small number of troops... No matter how many walls you build, you can harden your defenses."

I see. Then you can recruit new recruits from the villages you took around this hill. Gather your men and hold on tight. All right? The rest of us are going to attack the northern city with me. I will take what I have taken care of, so please try to get everyone involved. "

"" "" Ha "" "

No, no, what are you talking about?

The other knights are happy to give a prestigious reply, but this is not the end of the line.

It's insane to defend this hill with a balka.

"Dear Carlos, may I? I would like to join Lord Ars in defending this hill, but will you allow me?

But there was a knight who uttered unexpected words where I was even in a hurry.

Who is it?

I don't know him well, but I think I've seen him somewhere.

Hmm, I don't know much about other knights, but I wonder if it's the face I saw during the New Year's celebrations.

I wondered where I'd seen it, and I thought, "Where did I see it?"

That's right, isn't he a knight by the name of Peeta?

Peeta is a peasant knight who has fought against me before.

He was taken prisoner and interrogated during the Balkan unrest when he fought Raymond, and he knew Valgas.

Why do you want to defend this place with me?

Very well. Peeta, stay here. Everything else will be ready as soon as it's ready. Don't be too slow to prepare. "

But what I'm worried about is Carlos's presence on my back has left Peeta behind.

That's how I was ordered to defend the hills of Eindrad that I took.

"So, what are you going to do, Sir Peeta? I don't think so, but maybe you're thinking about taking a look at the late Lord Raymond?

"Hahaha, I know you're worried, but it's not. I'm not gonna hurt you."

Then why are you staying here? It would be easier to follow Carlos and invade the northern city. "

"I don't know. No matter how much you are, it won't be hard to protect this Eindrad. If so, I think we still have a chance to help defend ourselves here."

"... honestly, I'm not good at exploring my stomach. Sir Peeta, what are you aiming for? You know how incredible it is to work with a once hostile Balka."

"Well, let me get this straight. I fell in love with your battle for the first time. When I fought the army led by Raymond, I was brilliant in this battle. And there is Balgas, who has fought with me from the same peasants. I've decided it's best to speak up here to fight with you."

Really? I see. Either way, it's my decision. However, I will be at the top of this Eindrad defense. I'm going to ask you to follow my instructions. "

"Of course. Let the lion work hard to earn your trust, Peeta. Thank you very much."

Hmm, can you really trust me?

But it is true that Peeta's membership is helpful.

He is a peasant and a knight, and he has a lot of experience working on the battlefield.

Moreover, they are taking promising soldiers as waiters as future cavalry candidates.

The Servitors can also be used as commanders to fight alongside general soldiers.

The Barca Cavalry can act together in battle, but not in defense.

Troops must be deployed everywhere to defend the hills, and each must defend themselves in unison.

We will need something capable of bringing together general soldiers.

I can't help it.

Now there are some Grahams, including Leon.

Let them and Peeta work together to monitor it.

I decided to repair the defenses on Eindrad Hills, where there was an attack on the castle and everything collapsed.
