When the former general put on his bracelet, the light was lost from Hart's eyes.
"What are you doing to Master Hart!?
Feeling Hart's anomaly, Tina tried to fly to the former general, but a flaming spear was struck at her feet, stopping her leg.
"What is it, Master Hart?"
Tina's voice trembles.
It was Hurt who shot Firelance in for Tina.
"Ha ha, this guy's already my say. Look, show him."
As he obeys the word, Hart shows Tina and the others the bracelet attached to the former general.
"It's a slave bracelet!
"Why did you do it!?
Silf and Rifa knew what the bracelet was. One of the treasures held by Alheim, a slave bracelet. When it is attached to another person, the person to whom it is attached is subjected to the powerful brainwashing magic of the person to whom it is attached.
"I was a general of the National Army, wasn't I? This is as easy as replicating the keys to the treasure trove we kept."
The former general snuck treasure out of the treasure trove and sold it off to other countries, making it money to play. When the slave bracelet was discharged, he stole what was stored in the deepest part of the treasure trove.
"Hey, let Hart go now or I'll kill you."
Silf flies a killing spree toward the former general.
The genuine killing of the Spirit King.
The former general fell on his knees without being able to stand.
Silf, go back to the spirit world.
─ ─ !?
A word.
By order of Hart, Silf was forced to return to the spiritual world.
"Good job, man."
The former general rises as he wipes his sweat.
"Forced return of Master Silf... I can't believe I could do that"
Rifa looks at Hurt with amazement.
"Dear Hart, wake up!
…………
Hart doesn't answer Tina's call either.
"It's no use, it's the Devil's Treasure that works for us elves, too, right? There's no way this guy from the people can resist."
"You!
Tina throws a thunder spear at the former general. Hart stepped forward and shot down the spear coming at super high speed.
"(c) Dear Hart..."
"Tina, you were gonna kill me, weren't you? Hart, do yourself harm."
"Become what!?"
Put the protective dagger Hart was wearing on his own neck.
"Stop!!"
"Stop."
On the orders of the former general, Hart stopped moving.
My neck skin is cut off and my blood runs off.
"Got it? If you defy me, I won't hesitate to kill him. You guys do nothing until this war is over."
The mouth of the former general is disgusting and distorted.
"Hero Tina, and Princess Rifa. You will be my slaves when this war is over. That's why you're not gonna die, is it?
That's what I left behind, and the former general took Hart away. Tina and Rifa couldn't go after them.
─ ─ ─ ─
Meadows leading from the border to the King's Capital.
There was a fifth prince of Apristos and three thousand of his private armies in formation. The soldiers are devouring the food they got in the villages and towns they ravaged by the time they got here.
I wanted to capture the female elf if possible and like its body. However, it took time to defeat the Border Guard and get through the National Gate, during which time all the elves escaped from villages and towns near the border.
What was obtained was food, precious metals, etc.
I can offend an elf woman as I please. There were many dissatisfied soldiers because the adventurers of the Dark Alliance, who said so and took part in this invasion, were also mixed with private armies.
Suddenly, a magic formation emerged in the center of such a formation.
"Hey, what!?"
"Be vigilant!
The soldiers surround the magic formation. The inside of the magic formation was anointed with black, from which appeared the former general and Hurt, as well as the elf, a woman with an eyelid.
"Who is it!?"
"Whoa, we're buddies, huh? Nah, nah, ma"
"I don't care what you think, it's an elf! How did you show up here!?"
Private army soldiers point their swords at the former generals.
"Wait! They're buddies, pull the sword"
Prince Apristos V, who took the SS from behind the formation, appeared and forced the soldiers to lower themselves.
"Well done."
"Oh, thanks for responding to my suggestion"
The former Admiral had an inside connection with Prince Apristos V. The former Admiral's leak of Border Guard watch time to the Prince allowed the private army to break through the National Gate at the most insignificant hour of defense.
"But why did you join us? And how did you show up here?
The former general stayed in the king's capital of Alheim, and when the national army of Apristos besieged the king's capital, he planned to rebel internally, opening the gates from the inside and inviting the enemy in.
"You got some pretty good stuff. I got the power to destroy that country without having to start a civil unrest. That's why I came here. Thanks to Sole, by the way, for getting here."
With that said, the former general pointed to Hurt. The real reason the former general came here was because he feared the prince would betray him.
If he opens the gate from the inside and puts the Apristos army inside, the prince may betray and kill the ex-general who has been used up. That's what the former Admiral decided to do, to keep Hart's power visible to Apristos.
"Do you have that power in this man's boy? Do I listen to you?
"Oh, it's my say because I put on a slave bracelet that is a treasure of our country. And this guy's strong. Show him."
"Firelance"
Following orders, Hart appeared a knight of fire.
"Prince! Step back!!"
Turn your sword to the Flaming Knight so that the SS that was around will protect the Fifth Prince.
"It's a hell of a magic trick. If you do badly, this whole thing will destroy our army."
Sweat flows down the foreheads of the SS facing the knights of fire.
"Come on, don't be alarmed. This guy's my servant."
"Ho, you really can control that, can't you?
"No problem. Believe me."
The former general was satisfied that the princes showed him the power of Hurt. Now afraid of Hurt, the princes will not be able to betray him.
That's what the former Admiral thought.
"Is it tomorrow afternoon that the National Army of Apristos is coming?
"Oh, I plan on doing that. I just got word from your father."
"Well, let's take the day off. Tomorrow is pillage day. We can attack the king's capital first. Let the soldiers rest."
"But there may be a night raid."
"No problem. Hart, you watch out. Tow the enemy."
"Okay. I want to increase the number (...) so I can keep an eye on all directions. Is everything all right?
"Hmm? Well, I don't mind."
Hart said, the ex-general didn't understand what the 'number' was about.
"Firelance!"
"─ Huh!?"
"This is it!
About a thousand fiery knights appeared.
Its fiery knights surround the private army.
A thousand knights of fire are powerful enough to destroy three thousand soldiers of the people in one.
I was even surprised by the former general who ordered Hart to do this.
"Whoa, dude, I guess this guy is really on his side!?"
"Oh, oh, no problem"
The former general also replied, eating, to the inquiry of the prince, who looked in great haste.
"Until noon tomorrow, don't lean on your enemies"
"Okay."
Upon hearing the order of the former general, Hart stood on his back against a formation of private armies alongside the knight of fire and stopped moving.
Seeing Hart following his own orders, the former Admiral was satisfied.
This overwhelming power became its own. Depending on how you use it, you may be able to take hegemony of the world. The former general then walked inside the private army as if walking in his own army and headed to the beds provided.
By contrast, the prince could only follow the former general as he lingered.
