The armies of the Altena Alliance, a total of 53,500 troops, emerged from the ancient woods, where the armies of about a thousand and five hundred people appeared.

I thought the Imperial Army was coming this far to target the invasion, but it doesn't look like it.

"Hey, Mr. Kane!

Waving at the head of the group are Meteor Hero (self-proclaimed) Abel and members of the A-rank party "Those Chasing Meteors".

"Abel, what the hell is this..."

"Guys, I'm here to help you by endorsing Mr. Kane's alliance!

Apparently, Abel called me to gather his martial arts around the city of Ern.

Consolidating the lead are many members of the Adventurer Guild in the city of Ern.

"When there's a war, it's not an adventure. We will help you with righteousness."

That's what I said, Randall, who led the C-rank party, The Warriors of Bear Killer.

That's how the masked swordsman nods next to him as well.

……

He's wearing a mask (fumble), but if you know him as the master of the Adventurer Alliance, Georg, you'll find out.

I guess I thought it was a bad position to participate prominently.

The adventurers are followed by people from villages helped by Kane, such as the villages of Kuko, Tochi and Giza.

"Now would be the time to thank Mr. Kane."

"We'll work for Master Kane, too!

"Thanks, guys..."

It was Maya who deepened her grin than Kane who thanked her.

"This is a comforting side."

"Right. I'd really appreciate it."

Neither Abel, who called on him, nor Kane, the Alliance's leader, understood the important significance of the kingdom's villages joining the Alliance, Maya thinks.

Speaking of war, this is the first time in history that the people of the Kingdom are involved in a war of their own volition, even though it is carried out by nobles and not imposed on their lords.

That fact, which could rock the foothold of the feudal system, would have a strong impact on the kingdom.

All this could not have been accomplished without the sign of Kane, a hero born and sought after by the people.

Maya, who has served Kane so far, could not hide her joy in the realization that she was moving through history.

"Mr. Kane......"

It was Elena, the receptionist for the Adventurers Guild, who spoke so reluctantly.

It would be dangerous if it even came with Elena, who is not suitable for battle.

"It's a battlefield we're going to now, so it's not safe for Elena to follow us."

"Just for a moment, can we talk?"

Add the kingdom's prostitutes that Abel brought to the formation of the Allies. In addition, in the shade of the trees, the two speak.

"Elena, too, seems to have worked hard in the guild with a roundup of adventurers, thank you"

"The truth is, I wanted to stop Mr. Kane!

"Mr. Elena......"

"I've been worried about you for a long time. It's dangerous for everyone to push their expectations on Mr. Kane and finally stop the war..."

Elena has tears in her blue eyes.

Me and Kane offered a handkerchief looking for their luggage.

"Oh, um..."

"I'm sorry. When everyone's trying, I keep saying things on my own, but I've always been worried that Mr. Kane might not be able to."

Elena wiping her tears with the handkerchief she received.

"I don't think I'm doing anything that doesn't deserve a minute, myself. But this seems like the only thing I can do, so I'm going to get through it."

Kane stares at the brilliance of the Good God Sword (Altenasword) he is equipped with.

Altena has led us this far.

"I don't know, I thought Mr. Kane would go farther and farther and not come back, I..."

"When this is over, we'll go back to the city of Ern. So, Elena, wait in the city."

There's no way I can leave the land where Altena sleeps.

To Kane, who smiles so, Elena glows her moist, blue eyes.

"Is it true!

"Of course it is. The only place I'm going back to is that house. And who will deliver the herbs to the Alliance when I'm gone?"

"Well, I've been waiting for Mr. Kane to come home. In that house!

Along with people's prayers, the Altena Allies led by Kane move on.

But at that time a terrible disaster was winding up at the border, Fort North Guardian, where the Imperial and Royal armies were already staring at each other.
