With the autumnal sun falling in the morning, the Frizione army was already ready to leave, lined up and waiting so that the decree could be hung at any time.
The soldiers' morale is so high that I don't think there was a battle between the Frizione army and the Kabazid and Schuls coalition near here the day before, and even if the battle were to take place soon after, we would be able to deal with it.
This was also influenced by the fact that the Frizione army was originally a few elite, although it took a night off.
Not to mention that this army also has the Frizione of the First Empress, who is also the symbol of the Frizione army, and the White Rose Knights of its immediate knighthood, and even Ray, who is famous in many ways in the Bestian Empire.
It is very powerful in war, and its strength is that even if it is attacked from front to back and from side by an opponent who is more than twice as powerful in the battle the day before, it does little damage to its own army and has the strength to just beat the opponent without skin.
... although the ambush unit that was supposed to attack from the side of the Frizione army was wiped out by Ray and Seto doing nothing.
There were quite a few injured in those fights, but few died, and many have already healed their injuries because of the kinds of potions that Frizione had prepared and those who could use healing magic.
"We're leaving! If you think at the march speed, it will probably be tomorrow to rendezvous with His Highness Merclio's army, but don't be alarmed though, because His Highness Kabazid, His Highness Schulz's army may be waiting for you, as it was yesterday!
Angela's voice echoes around her, captain of the White Rose Knights, and the Frizione army begins its march.
It seems to be a relatively small army of about five hundred people, including supply troops, whose march speed is not comparable to that of thousands of troops.
"Ray, can you ask me to scout?
That's what Angela can say to Ray, who was riding on Seto's back near Frizione's carriage to take the lead.
Reconnaissance would be the work of others than Ray's role would otherwise be to escort the Frizione army.
In fact, some of the Frizione army are organized as reconnaissance units.
But it was very fascinating for the Frizione army to be able to reconnaissance extensively quickly because there is a Griffon ceto with high mobility and ability to fly.
Hence, the original reconnaissance force has been diagnosed in the morning by Angela to ask Ray and Seto to use their manoeuvres to reconnaissance the distances around the Frizione army, and Ray accepts that as well.
"Okay, then don't ask for this one.... Well, that's all I slapped him on yesterday. And yet I don't think there's ever going to be a hand in it for two days."
"Right. But if you're gonna say that, you better watch out for Ray, too, okay? I don't know what to say, but at the time Ray is here, we're twice as powerful... and on the contrary, it's obvious that it's more than that. I think it's possible they're after Ray anyway, so be careful."
Angela asks me worried.
But if I made it Frizione, who was watching the situation nearby, it also seemed that Angela's expression had something other than pure worry.
(Are you out of your mind?
He groans in the carriage and waves gently at Ray and Seto.
"Grrrrrrrrrr!"
When Seto responds with his throat rattling at such frizione, the women knights of the White Rose Knights defending the carriage around him make a scene with cackles.
No matter how sharp an array of arms are, they are still vulnerable to cute things.
"Seto, I'll raise something delicious later, so let's play together"
Seto throats delightfully at the words of the lady knight who brought the dried river fish yesterday.
Then Seto, with Ray on his back, wings after a few steps of escape, making sure to kick in the air and head up into the air.
Along the way, the blemishes heard not only from the White Rose Knights but from the entire Frizione army, I guess that's still the only sign of Ray and Seto's high profile.
"Okay, Seto. If nothing happens like this, I'll be at the rebel position tomorrow. I hope today isn't a fight like yesterday."
"Grrrrrrrr?"
That's why you're scouting, right? and to Ceto honking his throat as he turned back, Ray softly strokes and does the back of his neck, flying through the sky.
There were those who watched Ray and Seto fly up into the air.
It's a place away from the Frizione army, a place where Moura and Sistoy once stopped because of fighting just the day before.
So those who were looking up, confirming that Seto was flying over them, threw something out of hand into the burning fire that had been prepared. And leave the spot immediately.
Those who were around in the same way had some doubts about how the men were going to leave in a hurry, but thought they were just in a hurry, and did nothing more in particular.
Originally present are those who were stopped from reaching the Imperial Capital because the Frizione army was in a position.
Of course Frizione isn't blocking the road, so that was possible if you wanted to head to the Imperial City.
But isn't it possible that the other party will be questioned by the military alone for the collection of luggage or suspicion? and there was also a certain number of people who were anxious, and the result was this current situation.
Beyond the army led by Frizione and the elite array of his men, the concern of those who remain on this scene was nothing but worry, but it is not strange to be mindful.
However, in this case, the prudence will involve those present here in the extra rub.
Something that was thrown into the fire caused the red smoke to rise above.
If it were a normal incendiary fire, it would be about black smoke even up there.
But now out of the burning fire is red smoke, which only seemed a form of wolf smoke to those who watched it.
You must have noticed that wolf smoke, the merchants and adventurers around you rush to start packing their own bags.
If I stay here, I'll definitely get caught up in every rub.
These are the cautious ones, so I decided so and started moving… it was a little late.
"What is this wolf smoke!?
A female knight in white armor... The female knights of the White Rose Knights come to the occasion.
I'm just on a horse, and its mobility is high. In addition, the Frizione army itself was beginning to move, and Angela quickly sent her men who saw red wolf smoke rise in their own direction.
"Answer me! What's that wolf smoke!
Next to one female knight asking those around him in a strong tone, another knight soils the wolf smoke and erases it.
"Well, as soon as I wondered if the two men who were here had thrown something into the bonfire..."
That's what the merchant who was near Wolfsmoke tells you, but naturally there's no way you can believe that word right away.
"So where are the two men?
"No, just like that, because he's just gone..."
"What about those two faces? Was there anything distinctive about it?
A female knight who comes in successive visits, but the merchant man doesn't know another man who disappeared.
I just happen to be nearby.
There was little more information in my mouth than that.
The red wolf smoke that was rising from the ground naturally also looked like Ray and Seto scouting the surrounding area from the sky.
Because Frizione and the others hadn't heard anything about using wolf smoke, it was also possible to predict that the enemy might have shown some movement...
"This was just unexpected."
"Gru."
Ray groans in his eyes at the presence at the end of his gaze and Seto rattles his throat as he agrees.
However, that unexpected is not unexpected in the good sense, but unexpected in the sense that Ningro missed expectations.
Because there are five Wyburns at the end of Ray's gaze. And on Wyburn's back there was a knight figure... because that meant there were five dragon knights.
It is true that a dragon knight is a very powerful being.
Fireballs released from Wyburn's mouth or attacks using the spears, bows and magic of knights on their backs.
And most importantly, the biggest advantage would be being able to fly through the sky as Wyburn named it.
If you're a regular soldier, it's hard to say whether that's the enemy of a dragon knight even when you get together with a hundred or two.
Not so many opponents... if you try Ray or Seto, they are the ones you defeated in the Spring War in large numbers.
That's not what the Dragon Knight has come out with about five horsemen now.
"I don't know which hand it is, Kabazid or Schuls, but are you looking at us sweetly?... No, there's no way you think you can do anything about us right now. Then there must always be some trick... Now, what are you up to?
It was Ray who was thinking about what he was up to over there, but if he tried to be a dragon knight, he couldn't have missed such a great opportunity.
Five Wyburns open their mouths wide and spit out a fireball.
"Seto!"
"Grr!"
It was a short word, but Seto senses Ray's intentions only with it, wings flapping wide and going up into the air.
At the same time, Ray's unleashed flying slash slashed several fireballs and exploded on the spot. Seduce all other fireballs on the spot.
(You haven't even been able to collaborate over there?
Lay tilting his neck, watching a series of motions.
The Dragon Knight, who fought during the Spring War, has certainly been dominated by long-range attacks that throw up fireballs, but still it wasn't the first thing that an attack would detonate, as it is now.
To avoid doing so, they were stained with training to distance themselves from each other properly.
But now the dragon knights at the end of Ray and Seto's gaze each seem to be moving as they please.
Yes. It's as if you forced the Dragon Knight, who was in a completely different unit, to come together as one unit.
"... If you don't know what the other side is up to, but you want to reduce your power, will you thank me for that concern and let me do so? Let's go, Seto!
"Grrrrrrrr!"
Seto reacts quickly to Ray's voice and goes towards the Dragon Knight downstairs with his wings flapping wide.
Rather than folding wings, that descent, which gained even more speed by winging them, strikes a strong blow in before the Dragon Knight reacts.
As he passes through a group of dragon knights, Seto's forefoot blow smashes the head of one Wyburn, and Ray's waving death-size blow cuts the dragon knight on top of another Wyburn into a hanging.
Seeing two dragon knights become useless at one crossing, the other dragon knights breathe unexpectedly.
"Ugh, whoa, whoa, whoa! Somebody, somebody help me!
Scream of a dragon knight riding a Wyburn with his head destroyed by Seto.
Naturally Wyburn is already out of breath than he lost his head, and there is no way he can fly straight through the sky.
In other words, a dragon knight, dropped from more than a hundred metres above the ground, falls to the ground screaming in fear of falling.
Compared to that, some dragon knights died in Ray's blow were better.
Because Wyburn itself was intact.
Most importantly, Wyburn and the Dragon Knight have been growing up together since Wyburn was born.
There's no way Wyburn is making a big deal out of being killed close to such things as his own partner, friends, and brothers.
"Gaaaaaaaaaa!"
Spit out a fireball toward Seto, who is beneath us.
But Seto descends straight to the ground without slowing down.
The Dragon Knights, who still have three horsemen, are willing to destroy themselves in that way? I didn't expect it...
"Grr!"
There is no way Seto is alert to it, he wings heavily and slightly on the verge of landing on the ground, but he kills the speed and kicks it straight back up to the ground.
I guess I never expected Seto to come back so soon after he stuck it in a few seconds ago.
In a totally unexpected form, Ray slashes off the neck of Wyburn, who lost his dragon knight earlier in his death size, smashing the head of Wyburn, on which other dragon knights Seto was nearby.
Two Wyburns falling straight to the ground.
There are only two dragon knights left in the air already...... I guess those two horsemen also instantly realized they had no chance of winning when they saw their companions put in place. Let the two Wyburns throw out fireballs simultaneously and they leave the scene rapidly.
"Seto, don't let them get away with it!
"Grrrrrr!"
To Ray's words, Seto wings and follows the dragon knight.
I know best that the Dragon Knight is troublesome that I can fly freely. That's why Ray couldn't have missed the existence of a dragon knight here.
If we let the dragon knights go free like this, there is a good chance that there will be significant damage to the Frizione army, or even to the rebels.
(I don't know what they've been thinking and imitating like throwing away dragon knights... but I'm still not going to miss the perfect opportunity!
He shrugged inside and firmly gripped the Death Size pattern toward the rear of the Dragon Knight as he approached him while he watched.
