Maou No Utsuwa

It was only at the beginning that the coalition of central states and the main army of the Russua Empire engaged in intense fighting on a daily basis, but now the front is in a state of complete stagnation so much that sporadic fighting takes place. The reason for this lies on the part of the Ruthuan Empire. The lack of supplies is causing the morale of the soldiers to drop so little that they can fight. The battle against the kingdom of Oppenheim, which was taking place in the West, had brought information that the battle had ended in victory, and for some time the will had been restored, but by never receiving supplies or reinforcements from the West, he was depressed again. Once thrived, it's worse than before. There is a widespread aversion among soldiers, and the upper ranks of the army do their utmost to prevent them from fleeing. After that too, we were finally in a situation where we had to fear the uprising.

It would be nice to return to your country if you were so cornered, but the upper levels of the Ruthua Empire could not even make that decision. The home of the Ruthua Empire, with its eastern part in the Union of Eastern Nations and its imperial capital taken by the Church of Truth. Returning doesn't make any difference that the battle is waiting in the end. Besides, there's a battle that could be the demise of the Ruthua Empire if we lose. Even if we fail miserably in this land, we are left with the means to return to our country and try to relapse. Besides, the upper realm of the Empire is at bay.

Of course, those things are just resting. If you suffer a disastrous defeat in this battle, that's the end of the Ruthua Empire. Not that I have any idea, but I'm afraid to admit it. The cowardice so far in the upper echelons of the Empire, including Emperor Nicolai, was a miscalculation for the Kamuis. It is convenient for the original purpose of defeating the Ruthua Empire, but now that the purpose has shifted to discussing the brave and the divine clan that can follow it, the Ruthua Empire Army is the only one in the way. But ending it with the interrupter doesn't keep things moving. If this is the case, it's not until you take advantage of it.

"... I'll talk to you and get out"

Hildegand, who was watching the Ruthua Imperial Army from the sights of the castle fort, said he was going out.

"Are we going to?

I heard that. Tristan asked looking a little surprised.

"Yes, now."

"... don't you have to fight?

The Ruthua Imperial Army will eventually destroy itself even if left alone. It is clear that the soldiers are at their peak in morale and aversion to war.

"The atmosphere that drifted from the imperial position has changed. We have to find out why."

"Are you sure? It could be a fierce battle"

Tristan returned with a bitter look on his face when he heard the reason for the outing. I'm opposed to the launch.

"We're leaving because that's what could happen. Because that's what we do."

"Doesn't nothing Master Hildegand have to go out on his own?

"It makes sense because I'm going out. You know that, don't you?

"Yes..."

Tristan knows what it means for Hildegand to go out. I know and I'm trying to stop it.

"If we're in a situation where we're being pushed, I need your help. Then I'll go!

Even if Tristan tries to stop the attack, that can't stop Hildegand. Hildegand has the role of Hildegand. No matter how much danger awaits, it's not Hildegand who can keep it from fulfilling it.

"We're going out! It will be a different fierce battle than before! Be prepared for that!

After hearing Hildegand's orders, the horseback squad of the Kamui army began to prepare for the launch. Hearing Hildegand say it would be a fierce battle doesn't make the soldiers look any different than usual. They also know their role again. I was almost ready to give up my life for that.

◇ ◇ ◇

The horseback squad of the Kamui army, which sent out the fort, is rushing towards the formation of the Rusua Imperial Army. The number is two thousand rides. Divide it into two teams. Hildegand leads the other. Matthias leads the other team. There is a considerable distance to the formation of the Ruthua Imperial Army, which is tremendously retreating the front line. With all this distance, we cannot hope for support from the fort. Even if we need reinforcements, we won't be able to join the war any time soon. Still, Hildegand will not stop attacking the Ruthua Imperial Army. At least until we know if the change of will of the Ruthua Imperial Army, which was to decide to deploy, is a fact, or if so, what the reason is.

"The enemy has movement!

It was Theresa who told Hildegand the enemy's movements from behind.

"... that's not much. Is that what you mean?"

It was about two thousand troops that jumped out of the formation of the Ruthua Imperial Army. Even though the numbers have decreased since the initial 30,000, the Ruthuan Imperial Army still has troops close to it. It's not normal to try to intercept a horse riding squad for just two thousand.

"Matthias!"

Hildegand turned his left arm wide toward Mathias, who was driving his troops in parallel. Seeing it, Matthias swirls his own leading horseback riding squad wide to the left.

"... don't you want to move"

Two thousand of the Ruthua Imperial Army ignore Matthias' troop movements and move forward with tremendous momentum as they remain a clump.

Look at that. Hildegand turns his horse's head to the right as he stretches his right arm straight across. Below Theresa, all subsequent horseback riding also became that move.

The Ruthua Imperial Army reacted to this move. The goal is Hildegand's troops.

"Didn't they confirm it already!?

It was Gilberto screaming from behind.

"Not yet! I have always been the goal of the Ruthua Imperial Army!

Many times before, the Rusua Imperial Army has moved to take Hildegand hostage. It is the purpose of Hildegand to be in this fort to make him do so, which would mean that the Ruthua Imperial Army was moving as he wished.

"Matthias moved!

"What!?

When Hildegand turned his gaze in surprise at Therese's voice, Mathias' troops were about to attack the two thousand Ruthuan Imperial Armies chasing Hildegand from behind diagonally.

"Swirl left!

Seeing that, Hildegand also rushes to turn his horse's head on the enemy troops.

"Dear Hildegand! I can leave it to Matthias!

Matthias' move is to try not to force Hildegand. Gilberto, who knows it, raised his voice to control Hildegand.

"It's too early to launch an attack!

Hildegand saw Matthias' movement as a rush born out of his desire to shelter himself. You don't need to be aggressive if your enemies have shown movement. We need to understand the situation better before we do.

"Enemy Horse Riders appear! That's a lot of momentum!

Theresa is right, the enemy horseback squadron that emerged from the positions of the Ruthua Empire is rushing with tremendous momentum. Matthias' intention to poke the side of the horseback riding squad is obvious.

"I will support the Matthias squad! Prepare to storm!"

Soldiers who, under Hildegand's decree, pull out one sword after the other to position themselves for assault. Hildegand moves his troops around the front of the first two thousand Ruthuan Imperial Armies. The goal is to make you think that the enemy horseback squad is about to attack Mathias. But the enemy horseback squad doesn't seem to care at all about the Hildegand squad's movements. We push straight towards the Matias squad.

"... you have no choice. We'll poke the rear of the enemy horseback squad!

If we don't stop with restraint, we actually have to make an attack and stop it. Hildegand moves his own troops to split the rear of the enemy horseback squad in a straight line.

"Matthias Squad! Contact enemy infantry!

As for the horseback squad's movements, the Matias squad was faster than the enemy horseback squad. They are attacked diagonally from the rear by infantry units before being flanked by enemy horseback squads.

"... that's stiff"

The Mathias squad has launched an assault on the enemy infantry, but they can't break through as well as they think. That is a distinctly different strength from the previous Ruthua Imperial Army.

"Swirl left! Change target to enemy infantry!

Hildegand turned his unit's attack target into an enemy infantry unit. Horse-riding is only possible if you are running. You can't be stopped in enemy units. It just makes sense. We're going to help Matthias make sure it doesn't suck like that.

"No need to go deep! All you have to do is crumble the enemy line!

The purpose of Hildegand is only to support the breakthrough of the Matias squad. I intend to stay just disturbing the enemy line from the outside, avoiding things like raiding deeply and getting my own troops stopped too.

"Dear Hildegand! Danger!"

A voice I heard from my back informing me of Theresa's dangers. But Hildegand could not respond to the voice. Shock waves that suddenly rolled in the direction of travel. A horse that stands by surprise at that. Shaken off, Hildegand managed to get in shape in the air and get off his feet to the ground, but he was to roll down the ground without completely killing the momentum.

"Dear Hildegand!

It was right behind me that I rolled off the horse. Therese was with me. Still, they gather around Hildegand as they hurry up.

"... oh my god"

The Hildegands were still lucky to just fall off the horse. Soldiers who suffered a shock wave. Soldiers of the Ruthua Empire are falling to the ground and groaning. The shock wave was emitted from the Ruthuan Imperial Army. The magic of our allies is hurting and killing the soldiers.

"You're the lucky ones."

One knight entered from among the soldiers of the Ruthua Empire. One of the brave men, Ok. The words emanating from its mouth were far from the feeling of mourning the sacrifices of its allies.

"... this is you?

"Oh, yeah. You made the mistake of adding and subtracting it because you didn't think you'd be a hostage if you killed him."

"You don't think anything about killing your allies, do you?

"Soldiers die in battle is their job. I just let him do his job."

To kill a soldier, Ok, not only Ok, but the braves feel no pity whatsoever. You can kill whoever wants to die. Just kill someone even if you keep them alive. This is the idea.

"Something called an excellent general to win with minimal soldier sacrifice. The soldiers who obey you are pathetic. I can't believe the Fool General is his own commander."

"What?

Hildegand naturally doesn't have the same idea as a brave man. Life is life, whether ordinary or military. It is not a good thing to take lightly.

"Oh, you're a brave man. Then you have no choice. Brave men are not generals. You don't deserve to lead soldiers."

"... just kidding. That diminution. I'll shut you up right now. Get out front!

On Ok's orders, soldiers from the Ruthua Imperial Army move forward. Step on the corpse of an ally soldier rolling on the ground. There is no feeling of fear of death or pity for death on soldiers who are already mad warriors. Just follow orders and fight.

"The only hostages are Hildegand! Kill the others! Everybody! This is God's command! Give up your life and obey orders!

"" "Whoa!!

The voices of the soldiers who answer to Ok's extremes. Soldiers who are already mad warriors, but that will increase even more.

"Ha-ha-ha! The fool is yours! I look at the death of my allies with my fingers crossed, regretting my defiance of God!

Och is also laughing high in a way that he can't contain his exalted feelings again. In the meantime, soldiers of the Rusua Imperial Army attack the Hildegands.

Anger sounding on the battlefield. Splashing blood bumps. The battle went all mixed up at once.

"Don't kill Hildegand by mistake! I don't mind breaking one or two of my hands and feet!

I don't know any ochs who are happy to throw up this dialogue. of Hildegand, the power of those who follow it. Imperial soldiers who were swarmed by the Hildegands, but whose momentum fades visibly.

"... discuss it! Don't be afraid of death! Bring your enemies on the road!

Feeling the atmosphere of the soldier on his side being pushed, Ok flies again.

"After all, you are far from a famous general."

It wasn't the Imperial soldiers who responded to that drama, it was Hildegand who pushed them apart and showed themselves.

"What?

It is Nicholas, Gilberto and Therese who are struggling to keep the crowd of Imperial soldiers away from Hildegand. Nicholas' movements, in particular, continue to wave his sword without stopping the movement for a great moment, slaughtering enemy soldiers.

"Let allied soldiers fight without being able to discern the power of the enemy either. After all, you are an ally killing fool."

"... don't get on well enough with your soldier opponent a little harder"

"Then will you deal with them?

"Fine. I'll show you the difference in character."

The battle between the Imperial Soldiers and Nicholas continues. Furthermore, the battle is increasingly a mixed pattern, with the addition of a horseback cavalry led by Matthias, where the Imperial Army succeeded in breaking through by breaking down large formations there.

Hildegand and Ok facing each other without worrying about the intense battles taking place around it. It was Hildegand who took the lead.

"Become!?

I wave my sword in an instant, stuffing an intermission with the och like I was begun from a position with my sword in the upper stages. Surprised by its speed, Ok tried to fly big back and take the time off.

But Hildegand won't allow it. Kick the ground as you cut back the sword you shook down and follow the och.

"Come on!"

Ok managed to do so by rolling a diagonally cut sword to the ground. It was furthermore Hildegand who tried to wave his sword down that och - but without doing so, Hildegand flew big back and took a distance. At about the same time intense sand smoke rises from the ground.

"Pity, what are you struggling with?"

It was another brave man who showed up. He was Holst Astron, who led the horseback riding squad.

"... I was just alarmed"

"You're just alarmed, aren't you?

"This woman is stronger than I thought. But it's okay now. No alarm."

"I hope so."

"Shut up. Shut up and watch."

Ok to set up a sword and head to Hildegand. It was also felt by Hildegand that its structure, with no view of the gap, was certainly different from that of earlier times.

Now it was Ok who took the lead. Equal to Hildegand or more motion to pack an intermission at once and flaunt the sword to the side. It was Hildegand who prevented it by putting it together, but the momentum of Ok's sword was amazing, and he decided that he could not fully accept it, floating his body behind him without defying the power of the sword.

"Sweet!"

A gap created by Hildegand floating his body. It wasn't Ok who poked at it, it was Astron. Astron waving his sword by identifying the landing site of Hildegand.

"Which one is it?

The sword had been taken by Nicholas.

"... this mutton fish. You'll regret what you did!

Astron waves his sword at will.

"Gu......"

Nicholas struggles with Astron's sword, which is repeatedly swung down.

"Nicholas!"

It is Matthias who waves his sword toward Astron screaming Nicholas' name. When Astron readily accepts the sword, he pushes Mathias in reverse.

"Whoa whoa whoa!!

Nicholas, freed by Astron's orientation to Mathias, is slashed as he roars. Vertically and horizontally oblique, a sword that I could continue to shake shortly after breathing ripped Astron's back off, though it should have.

"... what the hell is this guy!?

There was no scratch on Astron's back.

"You can't scratch my body with your light sword!

"Light... maybe, but this is serious"

Nicholas' sword, which competes by hand, is certainly lighter than Hildegand's or Rank's sword. That's why it's anomalous to be cut with a sword and not scratched.

"I don't have time to be dealing with miscellaneous fish! Hildegand, take hostage!

"I'm not going to accept that!

"Then help me, until I make you obey! Ok! Master Lucifer's orders take precedence! We're gonna get you both out of here!

"... ok"

Lucifer's orders are absolute for the brave men. Och abandoned his pride and admitted that the two would capture Hildegand in a lie.

"That we will not tolerate!

Matthias is not going to forgive Matthias, but those around him, for fighting against Hildegand.

Then I'll take care of the groceries.

"What!?

"My name is Reiner Offiel! Be thankful that you can deal with them!

A third brave man appeared. I just want to say that I want because the goal is to drag the brave out, but I'm not sure Hildegand can win either. Still have to fight. Even if the calculations are slightly different, that's the role the Hildegands were given.
