Having captured the commander deep inside the enemy army, I walked back to the base on a dignified foot among the defeated mass-producers.
I want to chase the mass-produced ones who are fleeing at all costs, too, if I can, but when I do that, I'm going to squeeze the commander who's even in my hand, so I'm going to put up with crying.
"Captain Erdo!
"Captain, are you all right!?
Coming back to the front of the base, the Azra and Bonne planes rush in panic.
"Yeah, I'm fine, but what's wrong?
"No, because my head is destroyed"
"Speaking of which, you did."
He sacrificed his head to take his chances. I don't really use a camera on my head, so you don't care as much as if it was destroyed. I knew it would be awesome on a 24-sided monitor.
"In the meantime, I've caught someone who looks like the commander of this invasion."
"Is that true!
"Yeah, it's him."
I open the airframe's palm and show the old man the bluff. The luxury clothes are wrinkled because they burst in my hands.
"Were you two okay? The fuel seemed pretty tight though."
"Not now. I had no choice but to come back because my safety was hanging."
"This one too. If I could, I'd have crushed the escapees."
"Yeah, well, that sounds like the guys at the base are working on it, so let's get this one in a hurry"
Look, all the magic vehicles on the base are packed with artillery, hunting down the fleeing mass-produced types. Plus, they seem to be chasing away the mass-produced types whose horseback squads have been scattered on all sides.
I hope you'll run back to your country, but it's a hassle to be lurked somewhere and bandited later. No matter how much Haribote, we can load the cannons and wave the sword. From a soldier in general, it is a threat enough.
You can't let those people lurk in the country.
"Right."
"Shall we go with triumph?"
When I dive through the base gate after the two planes, I get a drink from the soldiers who stayed on the base.
I left the old man in my grip with a soldier and headed to the hangar.
"Bonne planes are the best! Azra machine number two! Eldo, please ask the third hanger!
When we follow the guidance and secure the hanger to the fuselage, the mechanics follow us to the fuselage at the same time, not to mention waiting.
As soon as I got off the fuselage, Angus rushed over.
"Erdo, Erdo, Erdo!
He shoves his face against his hugged chest, calling my name many times.
I hugged Angus and stroked his head gently.
"As promised, we're back."
"Yeah, yeah! Yeah!"
Angus, who nodded happily and again, couldn't leave as he was.
I give up until I settle down for now and turn my face to Mr. O'Rail, who was waiting right around the corner.
"Is that enough?
"Yeah, well, you can't leave me anymore."
"Let's have no choice. I've been anxious to hold my pendant."
"Were you?"
Ask Mr. O'Rail how Angus is at the base and go back to the task of stroking his head again.
"I'd like to do it alone if I could, but I want to hear about the future before I do."
"Right."
We captured the enemy general and the troops also succeeded in pushing the battle to a state where it was probably almost impossible to continue.
But that didn't solve all the problems.
During the five days waiting for the enemy to invade, information from other bases came around. That means we're under the same massive invasion on all blocks.
When I got the information, it looked like I could still stop at the front-line base, but I don't know what's going on now.
As soon as the information comes in, I'd like to use it as a reinforcement to other bases, but there's a problem with that.
We are the Kingsguard of the Second Princess.
Here the princess herself commanded the defense, but now that it is over, we should return to the escort of the princess who is retreating behind us.
"In the meantime, I would like to get in touch with Inez as soon as possible. Either way, I need this guy to do another job, so please finish it perfectly."
"Right, but you've defiled me a lot. It's harder to clean than fix it."
Mr. O'Rail looks up at the fuselage and squeezes his head.
Yes, my fuselage also appears to be badly damaged from being crushed in the head, but it hasn't been damaged so much in the fuselage.
Most attacks are solid or flush, and thanks to the magic magic shield, they fit to the point of slightly damaging the fuselage surface.
But the fuselage stains were serious.
Dirt in this case is not dirt, sand, or scratches.
So when it comes to what it shows, it's oil.
When destroying enemy aircraft, Armunale, which uses hydraulic joints, scatters large amounts of oil. The mass-producer seemed to have the same drive system, and my fuselage was exposed to a large amount of oil, which should be called the return blood of a hundred aircraft.
This is not something you can leave alone. It can cause rust, and can cause accidents if it gets between the joint gaps and the bolts.
So we need to get rid of them well before we go out.
"I've cleaned a lot of airframes before, but I've never had an airframe that drips oil before, even if it's an airframe that takes oil."
Mr. O'Rail is right, my fuselage is painted all over the oil, and one oil after another drips down the surface of the armor.
The artificial gorge that was crushing the enemy planes has created a water reservoir of oil underneath it.
It looks like it would be quicker to drop it in the pond than to wipe it away.
I understand the tragedy, too, so I answer with a bitter smile.
"Excuse me, please. I've run out of weapons, so I'm gonna need a refill."
"You've used up all that amount!
Harmonica pistre three cloves on twelve swords. Eighteen bullets. In addition, about twice as much fuel as would normally be combined up to the concentrated magic liquid (hi-maggia liquid) in the spare tank.
No, if you convert the amount, it's going to be horrible! I'm dying on a pile of paperwork! I'm worried about getting paid this year...
"Yeah, because I needed it. In the meantime, please complete the maintenance as soon as possible. Once that's done, we'll go again."
"You're still out there!
"People from the Rebellion Squad are now chasing me away from the haggle I escaped. If we don't crush it, it could damage villages and towns."
"Mmm, sure, but the captain should need a break. If you keep fighting, you won't have the strength."
"No, I'm pretty tense after the fight right now. I'd like to slap him if I could."
"But..."
"Captain Erdo, we'll take care of that."
"Captain Erdo, rest your body firmly."
When Mr. O'Rail was showing difficulty, a voice was heard from behind.
Angus stayed with him, so if you just looked back at his neck, there was Captain Azra and Captain Bonne.
"Are you two there?
"We can get out right away just by servicing the fuselage, and we've left Captain Eldo with all the Armunale opponents. This is where we were entrusted, so we're not the only ones left."
"That's right. And if Captain Eldo does any more, he's gonna tell me what we've been up to."
Hmm, the two fuselages are certainly going to finish servicing faster. But isn't fatigue as good as mine?
"Aren't you two tired? It's easier to share."
"If you just go after that Haribote and knock him out, it's no problem. It's no different than crushing an artillery guided car."
"Mr. Bonne is right. Well, you can't be alarmed, but it's heaven and earth compared to fighting Armunale."
Apparently, the two are motivated.
Mr. O'Rail is giving you a good look, and let me sweeten you both up here.
"Okay. Then I'll take care of the grocery hunt."
"The Lord rest in his room. The fuselage will be perfectly finished by tomorrow. Ma'am, I asked for the captain."
"Yes! Mr. Eldo, go"
"Oh. Well, excuse me first."
Give thanks to everyone, I went back to my room with Angus pulling my arm.
As I was wrapped in warmth in bed, I woke up with the sound of Don and the door slamming.
"Captain Erdo! Captain Eldo!"
What you hear is the voice of a young woman. It's probably Pamira.
I open the door in my undressed clothes. There was still Pamira there.
Pamira looks at my outfit for a moment and blushes her cheeks, but quickly makes a serious look.
"What's up? Did something happen?
"Oh, are you awake? Excuse me. It's not an emergency, but it's a problem that I can't seem to solve without a captain, so let me wake you up."
"Can't you fix it without me?
As I was hanging my neck, I heard a busy footsteps from the hallway.
When I hear that, a bad feeling comes up behind my brain.
"No way."
Glimpse down the hallway from the room. That's where I was.
"That's where you came from! You're actually after me for coming out in front of me in such a fancy way!
"Why are you here! Dear Ines!"
For someone who shouldn't be here, the drowsiness that's left blows up all at once. I absurd my voice.
"Being in the rear doesn't always mean it's safe! That's why I thought about it. I was wondering where the safest place for me is! As a result, I realized that being with my knight was the safest thing to do!
Reverse your chest as you spit a quote behind Bubba and a pink smoke about to come up.
Seeing that, I dropped my shoulder disappointingly.
"That can't be true, though. I mean, you've often allowed it to be sidelined."
"Hehe."
"Oh, what's that laugh?"
"You don't get behind me when I'm sidelined."
"You mean you've come silently!
"That's why I practiced my magic car!
Seriously. The rear base should be in a big hurry by now. I didn't mean to teach you how to ride a magic steering car! I was totally licking Inez-sama's behavior.
"Pamira!"
"Yes!"
"Tell the preaching order immediately to tell Master Inez he's coming this way! The base Master Ines was evacuating by now must be panicking!
"Okay!
Pamira makes noises and runs away with Babune. At about the same time, Angus, dressed tightly from behind me, showed his face.
"Mr. Eldo, what's wrong? Dear Ines!?
Angus also circles his eyes in surprise at Ines standing there.
"Oh Angus, you were in your room too! Just fine, tell them to gather everyone in the conference room to talk about the future."
"Yes!
I can't say I don't want Master Ines to order me to.
Angus also immediately jumped out of the room and ran down the hallway.
"In the future, Master Ines will be back again soon. Now we'll accompany ourselves."
I am also concerned about the front-line bases in the other blocks, but since Inez-sama has come here, Inez-sama's safety must be a priority.
I know you two are doing a mass-produced sweep job right now, but unless you can get certainty that you could have shot down all the planes perfectly, it would be dangerous if Armunale hadn't accompanied the escort.
"What are you talking about? I'm not going back."
"Dear Inez, in a situation where you can make jokes now..."
"I'm not kidding. Me and my knights will go south from this base to assist the frontlines everywhere. With the latest information, Jakarta hasn't dropped yet, so the first thing we need to do is secure it. The blocks after δ are pretty tight, so maybe they'll fall back on the second line of defense. Do whatever it takes to contain Jakarta by then. Even Jakarta can't stand attacks from both directions. By the time we contain Jakarta, the other blocks will be pulling back together and stopping on the second line. Something the Empire can't sustain even if it gets tons of land at once too. That's where we're supposed to be targeting the glue in the war. Along with that, Jakarta's troops attack from the side in reverse. At this point, we will abandon the maintenance of the buffer zone, but at least we will push it back to the first line."
In the current state of affairs, which can be described as hard, I suspect that the person in front of me is really the usual princess of the lower story.
"Are you serious?
"Naturally. I am royal, albeit terminal. I have a duty to protect the people of this country and their property."
"... ok. Because the reinforcements to Jakarta originally wanted to go. But Master Ines will ask you to step back. I can't give this away."
"But!"
"That's what you just said. Master Ines is royal. You can't risk me being a Kingsguard. If Inez says he's going south with us, I'll tie Inez up and take him backwards."
Then I won't be able to move as reinforcement.
For a few seconds, Inez and I bumped into each other's gaze. And Master Ines broke it for me.
"Okay. I will leave my support for Jakarta to Eldo. I will step back and move to the town on the second line on Jakarta's side. Keep me posted."
"I'd like you to return to the capital if you can."
"There's a reason here too"
Apparently, they'll never give way there. Did you break it earlier because there was a place here that I couldn't give in?
"Okay."
When I nodded, Lady Ines cheered with satisfaction.
"Then I'll go to the conference room. I can't set up an operation until I know what's going on with you."
Copy that.
I quickly put my clothes in order and followed Master Inez to the conference room.
