Legend

0290 words

Seremus plain. The plain was now in an odd adhesive state.

Ray's unleashed fire whirlwind caused great damage to the advance units of the Bestian Imperial Army, but still manages to lead the survivors to join the main unit before it becomes deadly. At the same time, the Neutralists, the vanguards of the Royal Mireana Army, and the aristocrats, were ready to resume their attacks at any time.

Yes, it was supposed to be a great opportunity to make an attack, now that the front-line troops and the main unit were rendezvous and confused. Given the confusion that would result not least in the reorganisation of the forces of war, it would have been natural to want to launch an attack in the middle of it. But I won't do it. No, it cannot be done because the main unit, the Kings, had given orders to refrain from attacking.

"What is Count Arius thinking!? You say your corner enemies are confusing you, but you're telling me to go out of your way to miss that!

In the tent used as a rapidly prepared command post, Dusker slaps his fist against the elbow of the chair he was sitting on.

"Perhaps you'd like to write off the glitch that the Commander-in-Chief was ambushed with the feat of smashing the enemy's main unit to the point of no skin."

I hear the words of Filma, who is in command of the aristocracy, and the aristocrats around me nod in the wind that I agree.

"At all, I didn't expect you to use such means to cover up your own faults. The arrogance of the Kings, it's superb here."

"In the first place, it was our aristocratic achievement that destroyed the enemy's front forces. Trying to put it up on the shelf and plunder it as your own handle..."

"Wait a minute. The biggest achievement in destroying the advance troops would be that flaming tornado. Then, naturally, our neutralists, who employ adventurers who created the tornado of fire, will have a bigger handle."

"What are you saying? Sure, let's admit that that flaming tornado surprised the enemy. But it is clear to everyone that it is our aristocracy who then actually fought more enemies than the number of us. I know we want to make a big show of our accomplishments, but I wonder if we're going to embezzle people?

"Say what! Let me return that dialogue exactly as it is. How much do you think that tornado of fire has damaged enemy lines!? You can't look at anything to take away that feat!

We're doing better, it's ours. Dusker sighs when he sees the contention begin that way. And when I saw you at the same time to the sound I heard, there was a sigh of film there, just like myself.

……

We silently exchange our will with each other, and once again breathe a small sigh.

Make it a dusker, make it a film, it was decided that there was no point in being in this situation. We did a great deal of damage to the leading units of the Vestian Imperial Army with little damage to ourselves, and just before we tried to launch an attack on the enemy unit with high blood, we received an order from the Earl of Arius of our unit to stop the attack. A lot of attacks, and it wouldn't have been strange to be in a situation like this if we just had increased morale and had no way to point it away.

The number of enemies was overwhelming, and that is why the neutrals and aristocrats, different factions, were working together to manage to cope. But now that it is no longer necessary, factional strife is beginning to surface.

It was Dusker and Filma, who were trying to stifle this situation with each other's eyes and eyes, but eventually Dusker, who was pressed into that role by the neutral centrist casualty, opens his mouth.

"Come on, you guys. Even though the ambush over here did a lot of damage to the enemy's front lines, overall, it's finally something like mutual. Can't you see that it's only in the interest of the Bestian Imperial Army if the allies have a hands-on dispute with each other in that state? The war will be duly appreciated after the war is over. So now focus on the war."

"Lord Dusker is right. I don't want you to imitate ugly as an aristocrat, and I want you to do what that pride deserves. And... things seem to be moving."

Dasker is followed by Filma, who tells him, and as if to indicate the word, he hears a blurring from around him.

Rather than arguing......, I guess the nobles who were obsessed with the rhetoric also noticed it on purpose. The gaze of the nobles was turned outside the tent...

"You can see Princess General Elaine and Lord Ray the Adventurer. I hear you brought a letter of instruction from Count Arius."

The nobles were convinced by the words of the soldiers of the escort for the reason of their blurring.

But at the same time, many showed frightening colors on their faces, even if only for a moment.

It would be nice to hear reports from Ray that he launched an attack on enemy front forces, because many nobles had seen those who died from fire whirlwinds in their eyes for the first time since that time.

Of course I heard the story, and I expected to see what sights were spreading. Above all, most of the aristocrats in this room have never been in battle before. For his nobles, he shall keep an eye on the countless dead born of a whirlwind of fire. Those whose flesh is burned to the point where it is carburized, and furthermore whose carburized flesh is crushed by impact. He who was slashed and torn through his body by wind or pieces of ray's put blade. A person with several holes around his fingertips in his body. Those bodies could only be described as unusual.

"Lord Dusker, Filma. I could get out of the ambush over there somehow... Hmm? What's the matter with you?

Elaine, who came into the tent, looks around feeling the ambient air weird.

The nobles who finally returned to me to that word gently divert their gaze from Ray behind Elaine.

(... I see)

In the meantime, only Ray understood the meaning of the gaze directed at him.

No, Ning Lo, you said you had done all you could to kill, but still being done with this degree of fear was an unexpected event in a good way for Ray.

"No, it's nothing. So, Lord Elaine, you brought a letter of instruction from Count Arius?

"... oh, here it is"

I looked surprised for a moment, but still Elaine gives me an envelope with instructions to do my part first.

Having received it, Dusker breaks the envelope and retrieves the instructions after a moment of eye contact with the film.

He read the instructions still for about a minute and handed them straight to Filma, but his face gave him a bitter look.

"We front-line troops, stay put. If Count Arius leads the main unit in an attack on the main enemy team, cover them from the rear."

To Dusker's words, the nobles around him make a scene again.

There is already no fear or fear of Ray among the angry nobles, just an obvious order to embezzle their own handles. Dusker looked around and lowered his chest inside.

"Dear Dusker! Are you sure you want me to stay like this Kings!? Certainly the General will be the Earl of Arius of the Kings. But it is undoubtedly our front-line troops who have carried this battle so far in their favor. Yet!"

"Calm down. That being said, there's no way we're going to publicly disregard the General's orders. Lord Elaine, Earl of Arius... no, how was the Kings?

Elaine, gazed at by Dusker, shakes her neck left and right while remaining silent.

I guess that's about all I understood about the Kings, including Arius. No matter what, we're going to attack the main unit of the Bestian Imperial Army ourselves.

Neither did Dusker understand the feeling. Perhaps Count Arius is using the appropriate backing and bribes to gain the position of general, and will greedily seek victory at least until he gets something for it.

And if you lose your power in previous battles, and perhaps the strength of the Bestian Imperial Army, which is also down in morale, you think you can defeat the Kings alone.

What's more, they don't think they're going to lose because there they are neutrals and Film-led aristocrats covering from a distance.

In fact, a person named Earl Arius has a variety of problematic personalities, but is never incompetent only in terms of war. You can call me Ninglo Competent. I can also tell Dusker that there will naturally be some way to pick up the win than that Earl of Arius decided he could go.

(But...)

Dusker groans inside and slightly frowns.

But, yes, but then the word goes on.

(How many times has the Vestian Imperial Army been putting up a little bit on our territory, making it big without any hands? No, it can't be. Fact is, I don't know what kind of means to use, but a surprise attack from the rear of the main unit... Wait. He shows up, then he sets up an ambush, sees it fail or leaves without hesitation? Could this be a quick decision...... well, that's why I need these two on the order)

Reminds me of the face of the famous general of an enemy country floating behind my head, and turns my gaze toward Ray and Elaine.

"Lord Elaine, Ray. Commander of the unit that launched the surprise attack on the main unit of the Kings... do you know who it is?

Ray, who knows little about the circumstances of the inquiry, answered nothing, but Elaine nodded small.

"Flash, it was General Theorem Energie"

Flash. As soon as the word comes out, the nobles around them will once again be bothered.

But the bluff was not motivated to launch an attack against the Bestian Imperial Army, which had risen some time ago. Ningro, it is close to the fear and fear that had been directed at Ray earlier.

"Flash? Did he say Theorem was in the war?!?

"I see. Then I can also nod that the enemy's will is still preserved"

"No, but... how many flashes does it matter if the situation has been decided so far?

"Don't be stupid. This level of disadvantage is not even unfavourable to the flash. This level of power difference is not enough to deal with Ninglo. The movement of his troops is as fast as his alias."

One nobleman accidentally opens his mouth among the bothered nobles.

"But... so how does Count Arius deal with that flash? If you're saying the Kings are going to be the main force, isn't there something you can do?

The surrounding aristocrats also give a puzzling look to the words.

Of course, it's not like the Kings don't have the talent. General Elaine's princess, the flash of Theorem. Enough aliases exist to counter it, and Rank S adventurers exist in the Wang capital. But they do exist, but they're not in this war. If you can ask me what I would do to counter anonymity in that situation, there is only one answer.

"Master Elaine and I are temporarily under command to add Ray to the Kings' attack."

It was Filma who was glancing at the command given to him by Dusker who said the answer.

"Oh no, Master Elaine is not a king!?

"... even if they say so. It wasn't me or Lord Filma who decided to send Lord Elaine or Ray to the Kings. That's what I've been saying from the other side. It was also ordered by the Earl of Arius. And unfortunately, Count Arius is the Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Mileana Army. I mean, you have the authority to order us, your men.... Well, normally I don't imitate like this considering the relationship between factions, but I guess the Earl of Arius can't afford to stay on that right now. I guess that's why I launched into such a means."

Tell the protesting words of one of the aristocrats to be taken over by Dusker.

In fact, it is an immediate order of the Commander-in-Chief, and given the chain of command, it is a perfectly fine act, so the nobles cannot call for it any further.

"That's why. Ray, I'm sorry, can you go? Honestly, I feel like I'm torturing you too much in this war, but still, in my position, I have to send you."

Ray nods that he has no problem with Dusker, who looks sorry but orders him to.

"I am employed by Master Dusker during this war, so I have no particular problems. Fortunately, there's still plenty of room in terms of magic, and Seto's fine. And..."

"And?"

"You promised me that if I mentioned the best in this war, you would get a magic item from the Larks family secret. I was wondering if it would be all that bad if I had the chance to mention that."

He tells them to overthrow the atmosphere that spreads in the tent, and Dusker, who understands it, also has a niggling grin.

"Right. With that said, you did make that promise. Honestly, I think Ray's handles are incomparable at this stage, but if that's all you have to say, fine. Give me something I can never let anyone complain about."

Dusker's voice, including a grin, spread through the tent, and Elaine, who was talking to Filma, would also work with Ray on the Kings.

Of course, there are some reasons not to increase any more damage to the Royal Mireana Army, but it would be a lie to say that there were not as many shards in it that wanted to act with Ray.
