"Are you going to be laid with a formation of spine?

That was my first voice when I gave my men an overview of the operation.

Returning to his formation, he gathered his men, who were the Lord, and gave him an overview of the operation.

Explain to your surprised subordinates.

"That's right. This Leesas attack, we're going to attack the 8th Corps alone."

When he heard the words, Giron, Oak's staff officer, asked back with a sobering face.

"Oh, uh, sir, what did you do now?

"This Leesas attack, we're going to attack the Eighth Regiment alone"

Repeat again.

"... uh, did those ears go bad? Or am I still dreaming? It sounds like my husband is saying a hell of a lot."

"Your ears are normal. And this is not even a dream."

When I say that, Giron pales his face.

I've been asking questions as I seep ball-like sweat from that green skin.

"Oh, you know, there's nearly 10,000 troops stationed in Leesas, not yet,"

"You are."

"Leesas itself is one of the biggest cities on the continent, and its walls are thick."

That's thick.

"Are you going to attack that in just one legion? We're a 2,000-strong army."

"You attack that with only 2,000 people. This has already been decided. I'm not going to override the decision now."

"Oh, that's so lame..."

Giron ceases, but instead it was Gunter, king of Dwarves, who had asked.

"But the Demon King is also said to be impotent. Will you break up the legions that you have besieged because of, and push everything against Lord Ike to flee? Now it sounds like you're telling us to die."

Gunter said in a condemned tone.

It was a rare word for an oligarchy and rigid Gunter, but I deny it.

"No, Lord Gunter, this is not the order of the Demon King. It's an operation I've proposed and planned myself."

The generals look stunned when they hear the words.

Gunter has asked on behalf of all of us.

"... I see, that means Lord Ike has a must win strategy," he said?

"Yes."

And I answer instantly.

Gunter, who heard the words,

"Then you don't have the muscle to complain. If Lord Ike is going to say so, I wonder if he has any good ideas. It will be the allies who will follow it."

And he convinced me.

It seems to me that the confusion in the field has subsided a little when the king of Dwarves, the elder of the 8th Legion and trusted by other Legion members, says so.

Gunter's full confidence was appreciated.

I'll explain the details of the operation to answer his feelings.

"As we talked earlier, the Kings' Alliance is now marching from both the West and the North"

"I heard that earlier. They weren't watching the civil unrest in Rosalia, they were after the tiger's eyes and the fisherman's interests."

Lilith says remorsefully.

"Apparently so. From the moment the demon king's army was besieged, Rosalia must have been abandoned"

"I mean, whether His Majesty Tristan is reinstated, the Eichs will win, but they don't care," they decided.

"Right."

"They're cunning."

And, Lilith gets angry with her blues.

"No, I guess I should say,"

If I were in the position of the League of Kings, I might do the same.

No longer see Rosaria as worthy of use and govern its territory in divisions.

That's the conclusion I would draw if I had some strategic eye and chill.

"I wasn't thinking about that possibility, but I didn't expect you to make a decision so soon. In that sense, maybe the outlook for the Demon King's Army was sweet."

I honestly apologized, but my men would be pissed off. I didn't show them.

Gunter is

"I don't care. War is what it was against. Sometimes I can't get rid of it on my desk."

And he encouraged me.

Lilith inspires me as well.

"That's right. I'm not talking about a muscle Master Ike can apologize for. This place has broken the covenant between men and attacked Rosalia, and we should blame the belly of the Alliance of Kings."

Lilith snorted out,

"Come on, kick the guys caged in Leesas, and then the Kings' Alliance guys will do the same."

and continued.

The concern was appreciated, but I urge her to calm down.

"Well, wait. There is an order to things. It is the wickedness of the Alliance of Kings that has attacked Rosalia by rebelling the ancient covenant, but now I can't help blaming it. I want them to get what they deserve one day, and I want to focus on the Kingsville attack first before they do."

"That's it, sir, is my husband confident that the 8th Corps alone will take down Reese? I don't know, it just doesn't seem possible."

"I guess it's impossible that I did it normally. So this time I will use a praiser's hand. Well, you're a strange guy."

When I said that, I decided to give my men an overview of the operation.

Point to the map near Leesas spread out on the table.

"I went first, but this battle, we fight only in our 8th Legion"

"What will the other legions do in the meantime?

"The main army of the Demon King and the legions of Sephiro go north, stopping the King's Alliance. I don't know how far we can go, but that'll buy us some time."

"What about the Fourth Corps and the Fifth Corps?

"You're a reinforcement to the West. Now there's a first legion and a second legion in the West, but that's all I'm sorry for."

"I mean, literally, there's only our 8th Corps left in Leesas, so..."

"Exactly. But don't be discouraged, I think this is a good opportunity."

It was Gunter who reacted to my words.

He asks with a serious face.

"… however good an opportunity, it seems to me to be a crisis of absolute desperation"

"You change the way you look at things. No, I guess I should say change my perspective. Sure, this looks like a crisis to us Demon Kings, but it's the same thing to our enemies, so we planned this operation."

"I'm not sure. Can you explain this more clearly?

"It's the same to the right," Lilith said when Giron said so.

I decided to explain it clearly to them, too.

"An enemy is not an alliance of kings, but an Eichs clan. Sure, betrayal of the League of Kings is out of the math, but that should be the same for them, and that's what I came to the conclusion."

The first thing I noticed about my measures when I heard the words was, unexpectedly, Alistair.

She said, "Okay!," he explained instead what I was thinking.

"We're not the only ones in this betrayal, it's also an out-of-count event for Eichs. So Eichs has to deal with this as soon as possible."

I told a woman wearing silver armor,

"Your Answer"

And when I sent my praise, I supplemented it in further detail.

"I mean, the Eichs guy always has to move under these circumstances. He must strike out of Leesas to crusade the King's Alliance. If you don't, you'll end up in poverty."

"Yeah, if you keep pulling like a turtle in Reese, not only the regional aristocrats of the North and the West, but also the aristocrats who stay in Reese Castle will raise their suspicious voices. There may be nobles who will be saddled with the King's Alliance, some of whom will surrender to the Demons."

"Then there will be no national seal, no royal power, no shit. The impenetrable Reese will perish from within."

I assure you.

Gunter is convinced when he hears the words.

"I see, that makes sense. The Eichs have no choice but to strike out."

"It's impossible to deal with tens of thousands in one legion that can also be caged in a difficult downtrodden Leesas, but with about 10,000 soldiers striking out of the castle, our legions can deal with it alone. That's why I said this was a good time to do the opposite."

"You may be right indeed. Did Lord Ike tell you that he would lay down a formation of leeward water?"

Answering Gunter's question, "Yes," he pointed his finger at the picture map again.

"I'm moving the 8th Legion formation here. Turn the river back, because this is the easiest terrain for the enemy to attack."

"I see, lure the enemy army there and vanish, so..."

Gunter admires me as I stroke my fine mustache, but I deny it.

"No, you won't be able to vanish."

"Why?"

Ask briefly.

"It is General Eingod who leads the army of Leesas. We met inside the castle in Reese, but he was quite a figure. I don't think it's easy to defeat a famous general like that. Not to mention the enemy soldiers are turning into cramps. I thought he was going to attack me with death."

"So the battle will be glued?

"No."

And I deny it.

"Perhaps, but our army could be pushed to the banks of the river, and we could lose a great deal. I need to be ready for that."

Tension runs around me.

I seemed to hear my men sipping their saliva.

"Our 8th legion may lose, is that what Ike says?

Lilith has asked on behalf of me, and I'm asking the question,

"Oh, I want you to be ready for that, too. This operation is a bet. If you lose that bet, you might end up with an annihilation."

And I answered briefly.

The ones around him would be silent as if they were going to fight again, but there was only one person laughing.

She was smiling invincibly, alone.

Regardless, I am Lilith with her.

I was guessing why Lilith was smiling, but I dared ask her.

Or maybe he wanted her to linguize the word and make a breakthrough on herself.

"Lilith, you think you can win this fight?

Lilith of Sacubus answers with a full grin.

"Did you ever lose after Master Ike used that word?

"No."

- But now I don't know.

I wanted to go on like that, but I didn't say that. I gently stroked Lilith's silver hair instead of the goddess of victory.

Her silver hair was sagging as if it had been spun in silver.

After this girl praised me, I've never lost.

Now I just had to bet on that law.

That's how bold and invincible the operation I'm trying to carry out.
