The signing ceremony for peace with Rosalia was to take place the following week on the plain in the center of Aresta, one of the front-line cities of King's Capital Leesas and the Demon King's Army.

Both armies, up to 1000 escorts are allowed.

Whether accompanying persons were civilians or not, it was customary for them to be composed mainly by martial officers, or soldiers.

Lilith, the succubus, says happily.

"The size of our legion is just about 1000 people, and it's a boat to cross."

"Oh, sure."

It was also kind of a pity story to borrow soldiers from other legions because of the lack of numbers.

"Just thanks to the addition of Lord Anemone's elf troops, has our legion reached the point of exceeding 1,000?"

Look at the people, the dwarves, and the elves starting the battle, and I'll leak my exhale. Think deeper.

"When they first assigned the brigade, it was 300."

"That's what got busy thinking about it," Lilith said.

Totally.

Hit the correlation, but I realize there is something.

I found my daughter skipping without battle support for the habit of "Brigade Leader".

Regardless, the daughter and Lilith of Sacubus are in front of her, but when I stared at Giroli, she uttered her tongue "hehe" and went back to her unit.

"Damn, that's troublesome"

was Giron of Oak. Giron wore a shiny silk robe that seemed grated.

Says you shouldn't be licked by both humans, it seems.

I don't know what it's like to look good or to have a small stained idea.

Indeed, our legion lacks unity.

The Demons, of course, are man, elf, dwarf, all armed differently to each other.

Some Demons are not even armed, and humans and dwarves are not uniform with claws (chainmails) and armor (plate armor). Some of them only have clothes and bows to reach the elves.

"You know, militias and prostitutes."

Meanwhile, Rosalia's army must probably be armed with all, heavily armored armor, with well-forged swords and spears of celebrities.

look, would be overwhelmingly inferior in terms of

However, I don't intend to lose on merit.

So I whined in my heart, and I tried to hang the march, the decree of.

- But that stops on the way.

Because Giron pulled the hem of my clothes.

I don't know what it's for, I look down at Giron from my beloved horse, but from what I can see, Satie was coming this way for a small run.

Holding it in both of those hands, regardless, was a firestone.

He'll take charge of the exams before the war.

Satti comes over here breathless, and as usual, he says, "Please wait," slapping the firestone twice, chirping, and.

I return "thank you" as usual.

It's no longer a routine pre-war event, but I don't feel bad about it.

I don't know if this will beat the enemy army or, in this case, succeed in peace, but at least I've never had a bad result by performing this ritual.

That's what I thought, and I sent my thanks to Satie for turning my back without further ado.

Has that notion arrived, Satie bowing her head as she turns, peppers, and bows her head on the way here?

When I made sure her back was blind, I turned to the king's capital.

"Get in line!

and -.

The 1000 brave men said, "Ooh!," he exclaimed, and began to march.

It takes a week from Ivaris to Aresta, and another week or so to march from there to the plains halfway between the king's capital.

If we could just form a unit with horseback riding units like humans, those days would be shorter, but a guy named Army inevitably has to calculate his march speed based on the slowest leg.

Because there are many demons in the Demon King's Army that cannot ride horses, their marching speed was naturally slow.

For example, the giant tree family (Trent) has a large figure and a wide stride, but its walking speed is slower than that of humans.

These species may not be suitable for manoeuvre and may not take them to battle, but this time they also decided to take all blunt-footed demons, such as the Giant Trees (Trent) and Giants (Giant), Trolls and Skeletons.

Giron, for example,

"Mobility is life in battle, but it's rare for a cliche husband."

I was surprised, but there's a good reason for this.

I'll answer Giron plainly.

"The reason is simple. This time it's not a rescue, it's not a sudden raid. I just have time. I don't care about any blunt-footed demon."

Instead, blunt-footed demons are tougher, and may have the effect of terrorizing enemy forces.

If the enemy forces feared the demon king army and did not interrupt the signing ceremony of peace, it would have worked with it.

As far as I'm concerned, it's far more helpful than being lost and attacked during a signing ceremony.

- It is useless, however intimidating, if the enemy army's mastermind, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Rosalia, Eichs Ouberk, is willing to disturb this peace.

However, even if you make the worst assumptions, it is foolish to leave demons that can be a force for war.

We must challenge ourselves with readiness to be a total force battle.

Whatever the case, the plain on which the signing takes place is near the king's capital.

It's a distance that feels far away for the Demons, but an eye to nose distance for a human holding a large number of Knights.

A creature called a horse was the ideal creature to transport people and things efficiently.

The man who possesses it in large quantities and rides it is a troublesome man.

In that sense, the Chancellor of the Kingdom, a man named Eichs, Lord Wooberg, may be quite wise. He would have nicely examined the weaknesses of the Demon King's Army and instigated the King to open a signing ceremony in their favor.

As a demon king army, there is no reason to say no if it is designated as halfway between demon and human territory.

"If the enemy forces were to launch an ambush, they'd be coming from the king's capital in three days."

I squeal so when I calculate in my head.

Meanwhile, if Sephiro is coming to the rescue, it will take at least a week.

"No, actually, I guess it'll take more"

Optimistic estimates and calculations could have caused a hell of a burn.

"Worst case scenario, you might want to try to take two weeks"

If I divulge it like that, Lilith from Sacubus will come this way.

"Um, the simple question is, does Master Ike want this signing ceremony, to be successful? Or do you want me to fail?

"Of course, I want to succeed"

"Then why are you so worried? Why don't you just go to the promised plain and sign it?"

"Hopefully, there won't be any difficulty."

I guess the memories of my previous life make me do that, but I always take action assuming the worst.

Regardless, this signing is bound to succeed, but we have to consider all possibilities, all possibilities, such as the possibility of enemy forces getting involved, the possibility that King Rosalia himself was not willing to make peace in the first place, etc.

I thought that was the minimum duty of a commander who would keep many soldiers.

It just doesn't seem to convey my feelings to this girl Lilith.

"It's okay. Whether you can't sign it or be surrounded by 10,000 armies, if you're Ike, you're a mess."

Staring at Lilith, who said so freely, he asked, leaking his exhale.

"And that heart?

Lilith said this out when she smiled so clearly that she could see her white fangs.

"The reason is decided, that's because Lord Ike is the strongest sorcerer in the Demon King's Army!

It was a pleasant affirmation and lifting, but when this daughter said it, it was strange that she was naturally and confident about why.

However, Lilith's smile, which makes me think so, was appreciated, but her optimistic personality has to be corrected somehow.

I am no longer the Commander of the Demon King's Army.

And Lilith is its deputy and brigade leader.

I need you to lead the army alone one day.

I can often be helped mentally by that optimistic personality, but seeing it as one general makes me anxious.

"... I'm sure if I put this feeling into words, it would be the word kindness or old age"

Groaning so in her heart that she could not hear her, she set her gaze back forward.

Beyond that lies the plain.

I still don't see the Rosarian army, but how does the king of Rosaria feel waiting?

At least there shouldn't be a brain weather daughter like Lilith near him.

I don't know if that makes me happy, but at least I'll be bored.

With that in mind, I recommended the army to the negotiating place.

This march speed should lead us to the promised land in a few days.

"Whether we can make a pact for peace there or it will be a bloody protest, I'm not sure about that, but at least something will start there"

I was at the end of the horizon - and when I looked to the future, I squeaked in my heart, yes.
