○ Farnese, the town of Erstavia

"A messenger came from the royal castle?

"They say it's urgent."

Farnese immediately met with the messenger.

The location is Farnese's office.

There are no soldiers in the same room. There's just one civilian.

"What's up? What happened? What happened?

When I saw the messenger's chopped face, a bad feeling shook my head.

"General Daldaros has contacted the Royal Castle that both Lowe and Krulu cannot be accepted"

This is a situation in which we have left the invasion of the two countries to one general.

"I guess so. What's the status quo?

"It's within my own country, so it's easy to defend. Build strong formations everywhere and defend them. Except you don't have enough power to push back. We have also received reports that the withdrawal will be unavoidable if prolonged."

I can stand it, but that's all. It means poverty.

Given the enemy's power, it may not be a good idea.

"Still, you're under invasion now."

"Yes, but some troops seem to be coming out"

The enemy is using multiple routes to invade.

Naturally, there will be routes out of sight. Not that the enemy will be polite enough to teach you the invasion route.

Since the national territory is not so vast, it is likely that you will reach the royal castle directly if you are plucked out.

"Is there an enemy unit that has reached the castle?

"Two units have arrived, all of which Master Atalasia is out intercepting, kicking ass"

"Right. That's good. But there's going to be more in the future."

If we know there's a way out, the enemy could poke at us there.

As long as my deputy, Atalasia, is stuffed in the royal castle, I don't think there's much going on, but there's something about Nehyol.

Farnese thought it would be better to lay a formation somewhere else than to intercept at the royal castle.

(... then it will not be the same as going out to intercept after all? Do you want me to return General Tourat to Leninos territory?)

Farnese thought he would be forced to make a difficult choice, but making a cheap decision here and making the wrong choice would be a big deal.

"Any other reports?

"General Daldaros has set out to stop the invasion from the Krulu"

"Will the general be on the front line himself? You finally caught fire in your ass."

If you get on the front line, you won't be able to give instructions to the other troops.

"Lady Farnese wants us to raid Lowe's army from behind."

"Lowe army..."

Some stories came from Golan, but now the Lowes army is close to this town.

General Daldaros, too, may have turned it into an athe and went out to intercept the army of Krulu.

"We were going to move after reinforcements from Demon King Tralzard arrived, but then we wouldn't make it?

"In General Daldaros's view, it's time to limit ourselves"

"Right..."

The fact that General Daldaros went to fight the Kurl army has made it impossible to grasp the trend of the Lowe army.

I don't care what you put down here. Maybe you should rush.

If Farnese doesn't make it, the worst enemy's main force may pull out a defense battle.

Then the enemy's army reaches the royal castle.

"... I have no choice"

Even if an ally unit comes from Tralzard territory, it will take a few more days.

If you make it athe and stay here, you won't be able to make it, either.

"Can you go out?"

"Oh. Let's leave the hospitality to the people at home. You want me to go faster than that, don't you? Lowe, tell me the army route."

"Yes! The enemy's invasion route is here."

The messenger offered a map.

There was written the expected force map of the enemy allies and where they had been fighting.

Decrypting the contents of the map, a deep wrinkle came between Farnese's eyebrows.

It's only a day and a half away from this town, and it's a pretty dangerous battle.

"Is this the number of both armies?

"Confirmed."

This side looks pretty much like a widow. I'm only about a quarter.

General Daldaros also panicked, Farnese thought.

If anything, it is the difference in power that will push you away at once.

When I thought about whether we were still in a desperate battle, I couldn't stay or not.

"The messenger brought this from the Wang capital, assuming the battlefield was moving... while building a position in the rear, abandoning the brittle formation and retreating... now I guess around here"

In this battle, enemies can be stomped because they are avoiding soldier wear and tear.

I guess you decide that the real battle is in the royal castle.

The civilian who was with me will write down the words of Farnese.

"All right, put the army together and leave immediately.... right. Then halve your surveillance of Leninos territory and ask General Tourat to return the rest to the King's capital. If that were to happen, half of our troops in the Royal Castle would call for General Daldaros' support at the time the Tourat army appeared in the Royal Castle"

Farnese told the civilian that and left the office.

Farnese was supposed to welcome reinforcements from Tralzard, but that no longer came true.

"Guys, I'm going out. And then do me a favor."

So he told the men of the mansion, and Farnese went out into the garden to gather his soldiers.
