Monster no Goshujin-sama

21. Ravages of the Borderline Belgian Army

Twenty-one.

"Master Lewis. You have arrived at your destination"

To Lewis on the horse, a deputy called out.

Voices and expressions appeared the exaltation of soldiers who had preceded the battle.

"Right."

The corresponding Lewis was calm.

its standing behavior had the character of a commander

A man who climbed into an orphan position to hold a single army, but who was also an orphan, even got it in an unrelenting effort.

Acknowledging the village fence at the end of his gaze, Lewis stopped the horse and gave instructions.

"Tell the battalion leader. Prepare to attack. Proceed as you should."

"Got it!

The whole army moved neatly.

Form a formation that was slightly disintegrating during the march, or start forming it on someone more suitable for attack.

The main force of the Border Bell Army consists of three kinds of soldiers: infantry, archers, and magicians.

Soldiers were provided with torso armor for all, plus infantry carrying shields and long spears.

Heavy equipment but tight movement.

There were no gaps in the formation where the shields were aligned and the spears were arranged, and the degree of sophistication was questioned.

The archers have bows in their hands instead of shields and spears, lowering their melee swords to their hips.

The position is infantry.

They are arguably the essence of the attack.

Morale was sufficient, and there was no shortage in the number of arrows.

Finally magic soldiers, but they are small in number and tend to be buried in other soldier species.

Arms are also shields and daggers and, at first sight, plain.

But if you notice the treasure balls embedded in their gear, you'll see that they are the hua of the Borderline Belgian Army.

They are all magical tools that aid magic and reduce the drain of magic.

Of the five thousand soldiers, there were about two hundred magic soldiers, but all of them had magic weapons.

When it comes to an army equipped with more than this, that's about the SS protecting the Cathedral Knights and Emperors.

It is arguably a unique piece of equipment for Borderline Bo territory, which has multiple mines in its territory that produce demonic stones and possesses a wealth of financial power.

Regardless, not all gear is splendid.

Soldiers adequately trained in the abundance of frontier uncle territory have a high level of each.

In fact, there have been several encounters with monsters so far, more than just so many large armies moving around the surface of the tree sea, but they were bouncing around all of them without causing any damage.

Apart from the main unit, he also refrains from cavalry guerrillas.

It is a strength worthy of the male Macrolin Border Army of the Southern Nobility.

For something hostile, it should be called an army of nightmares.

So much less, the deputy came back.

"Ready. You can always go."

"Nice."

Lewis nodded.

"The goal is a village lurked by Takahiro Mashima, a pseudo-brave man. And now we're going to launch a total attack."

My eyes lit up with a glimmer of steel.

"Destroy them."

Orders were given and the soldiers in line began to move forward.

It's a great army that ravages everything.

Seeing that neat forward, a low groan rose.

"… you"

There was a tremor of resentment at the end of the story.

Lewis turns around.

A man with a restrained wrist was staring strongly at Lewis.

If the people of Akel saw this sight, they might have boiled their heads in anger.

"His Highness Philip. Are you here?"

Philip-Kendall.

It was Akel's second prince who was brought here by the soldiers.

As a matter of fact, as Adolph was expecting to tell the Lillies, Philip was moving to hold off the Borderline Uncle Army.

Behind his sweet face, he is also part of the royal family of Akel, the kingdom of Takeshi.

He who guards, he who fights.

He had at his core the same harsh sister who jumped into the front line of the battle to protect humanity.

That's why he decided to turn back immediately to Diospiro when he heard about the McLaurin Borderline Belgian Army on his journey to report to the King.

Takahiro Mashima helped Akel's people.

I must fulfill my brother-in-law, and I must reward you with gratitude.

That's what Philip had in mind.

I was therefore convinced that it would be good for the country.

It's not just because the other person is a brave man.

Philip appreciated and sympathized with Takahiro's attitude in trying to protect whatever was important around him.

I felt strongly that Takahiro should not be killed because of boring mistakes and misunderstandings.

So Philip came back to Diospiro.

I can't stop the Borderline Belgian Army, which has traveled so far, unless I'm as royal as I get on board.

With that in mind, knowing the status quo from Diospiro's Royal Army, he chased the Borderline Belgian Army at full speed.

Responding was Lewis-Bird, who led the Borderline Belgian Army.

On the occasion of the conversation, Philip complained that Takahiro Mashima was not a phony brave man.

He said he shouldn't suddenly launch an attack, even if he can't wipe his suspicions.

I told him it would not be too late to contact the expedition and ask him to confirm it.

Philip's statement made sense.

But all the persuasion ended in failure.

On the contrary, he was not even given time to back down and work out measures, and was detained on the spot.

Philip chewed on his cheek that it was a detour, but it would have been difficult to predict this situation.

I'm not talking about being hard headed and not listening, etc.

That's why Lewis couldn't get through.

Conversely, I felt that Lewis didn't have a conversation with Philip either.

But that's why I didn't change my attitude.

"You have come to His Highness, nothing else. I thought it was about time I changed my mind."

Lewis' attitude was only polite.

Even when dealing with Philip in captivity, he showed a certain respect.

"I do not intend to harm Your Highness."

It was a tone without lies.

I detained Philip because it was only necessary.

We must not ignore the dignity of our opponents, even if they disagree.

Because they are the same person.

Even if this were a criminal, Lewis would have treated him the same way.

There was the belief of a man named Lewis-Bird.

"If we do not join forces, people cannot live this harsh world. The country is different, we are compatriots living on the same earth. My compatriots are merciful, not hurtful."

Lewis meant it.

Depending on the way you look at it, it can be said that he also had the same properties as Philip.

He was a protector and a fighter.

To be precise, that was the nature of the Macrolin Borderline Uncle family that affected Lewis.

However, the target was fatally off between the Royal Akel family and the Macrolin Border House.

Maybe that's why they stuck together.

"I believe. Even if you are fascinated by evil, Your Highness will understand someday."

"Is it something you can understand...!

Philip used to distort his tender looks a lot.

"Do you understand what you have done and what you are about to do!?

"Whatever. I will destroy evil and do righteousness. For the people."

Lewis affirmed.

To do so, I found no strays or other shards.

"The evil of manipulating monsters, for example, must be burned to the ground."

The idea was exactly the same as Grantley-McCrowlin.

That's why Lewis is here in the name of Uncle Borderline.

I can tell you Yuna Iino was right about her intuition.

Undisputed, Lewis-Bird is the incarnation of justice.

The whole thing was just to destroy evil - 'evil to them'.

And "Evil" is nothing but Takahiro Mashima and one of his parties.

Because the order he gave earlier is' extermination '.

"I will kill no one who is in the village. Takahiro Mashima, his family - the village elves are no exception. Yes. Elves are also evil creatures that deal with monsters by calling them spirits and so on, because they are foreign objects that should not be in this world."

"... what a miserable thing"

Philip clogged the words.

He knew what Lewis was saying wasn't all mouth.

To be precise, I knew it.

Already Lewis was attacking Takahiro Mashima, a pioneering village in the elf, taking his neighbor's village.

It was yesterday.

The majority of the inhabitants were allowed to flee at the discretion of the chief of the settlement, but the few remaining elves in the village fought.

The Pioneering Village is fortified in preparation for the monster raid.

But not a single one was attacked by five thousand soldiers.

Some survived only marginally, but the village was destroyed.

Residents who had fled just before were also relentlessly pursued.

As it were, all the inhabitants would have been killed.

That didn't happen because we got in the way on the way.

"I'm sorry about yesterday. If it weren't for that alien wolf, we'd have been able to destroy it."

A few moments later, a two-headed wolf broke into the tentacles to protect the rear of the fleeing villagers.

It was the villagers sweep that was assumed, so the tracking unit was not that many.

Sometimes they refrained from fighting their original enemies, hating the damage, the troops withdrew, thanks to which the inhabitants were able to flee to the village where Takahiro Mashima stayed.

But that's just a slight extension of life expectancy.

Philip, who understands it, complained with the thought of spitting blood.

"Wake up, Lewis-Bird. An elf and a people to protect...!

"No. That is an evil being, a foreign object to be destroyed. You're the one who should wake up."

Lewis doesn't fit in.

Its mouth, once worried about prejudice and discrimination against the people of the meadows, throws away the elves as evil beings.

At least, there is no contradiction in him about this.

Lewis loves people, not even a few lies or anything.

Because I believe that it is the least I can do that day to protect people who are powerless by risking their lives, helped by a doomed village.

My men admire Lewis like that.

With good sense, do good.

Do justice.

Those who disagree, even if they are criminals, never forget their respect for the other person.

But that's if the other person is the same 'human'.

Among the 'people' he protects, he doesn't include 'elves' in the first place.

Rather, I am even convinced that eliminating it is an act in accordance with good sense.

This was the identity of The Elf Hate Macrolin.

Lewis' thorough attitude, which follows the policy of the Macrolin Borderline Bowhouse, was similar in some respects to that of devout religious followers.

Nor is that often a mistake.

Since the day he was rescued from the doomed village, Lewis-Bird has believed in the existence of Grantley-McCrowlin.

The faith, no longer, had the backing of this world's highest authority.

"... dude. Isn't it time?"

A low voice interrupted the interaction between the two.

"Dear Edgar,"

Lewis called the name of the man who showed up.

"What's the situation?

Control Lewis, who tried to get off the horse, Edgar asks.

The way he spoke was rambling, but the voice color itself was quiet.

Once felt by all who face each other, the rough impression is lost.

However, not so much, the gloomy impression had intensified.

This might have been better when he was a rough man seeking strife.

In fact, Lewis' deputy had his face stretched.

Most importantly, Lewis reacted differently.

"Everything's fine, Master Edgar."

The words directed at Edgar were respectful.

For Lewis, this was natural.

Edgar not only fights Takahiro Mashima ahead of time as a member of the Cathedral Knights Unit IV, but also carelessly succeeds to the will of Captain Travis-Mortimer, who was "mired in personnel misery by Takahiro Mashima," and helps the Borderline Bo army.

Specifically, the Borderline Belgian Army is successfully attacking abandonment before embarking on an offensive.

By now, Takahiro Mashima should be unconscious.

Loss of morale and chaos in the chain of command are inevitable.

In addition, Takahiro Mashima's family, including his former knight Ghoul, is expected to have more than half fallen into inaction.

In other words, Edgar drove his enemy power alone into a situation where he could not even defend himself.

Although Edgar cannot participate in the battle because of the wounds he suffered at that time.

Instead, the survival of the Cathedral Knights Unit IV was to take part in the battle.

He also provides some equipment support.

"From here on out, it's your fight. I'll give you support."

"I know. Dear Edgar, I will not waste your contribution. Let's do all we can for justice."

"Oh, for the sake of justice,"

Listening to the interaction between the two, Philip bit his teeth.

Cathedral Knights Unit IV.

Their presence had given legitimacy to the disastrous military actions of the Borderline Berg Army.

Philip doesn't believe in Edgar's word for justice.

You just want to fulfill your snowflake against the defeated Takahiro Mashima.

But still, it is the Knights of the Diocese - a symbol of justice in this world.

Just because they are accompanied, Akel's national army will be unable to move in front of the Border Bo Army, which invaded the border.

Where I made it to Philip, I made a promise to Takahiro: 'Preparing a place to repair the relationship between the brave men and the diocesan knights who have gone wrong', not 'Hostile with the diocesan knights'.

Because hostility to the Knights of the Diocese is tantamount to turning your back on all legitimacy.

I couldn't have done that.

So there is no longer anything that can hold them together.

A clamour echoed as the army pushed against the village.

"Ahhh......"

Philip groaned.

The attack has finally begun.

Overwhelmingly unfavourable, the battle of despair.

Philip unfortunately knew what to call it.

Ravage.

Ravage.

"Start engaging monsters!

The order tells them what's going on on on the front line.

"Even as we are under intense attack, our army prevails!

Philip eats his teeth off the report.

In a restrained body, you can't even block your ears.

The army pushing against the village is like one giant creature.

A righteous monster eating evil.

"Reporting!

And the news was finally brought.

"We've picked up an enemy monster!

The next moment, the joy exploded.

"Ooh! Ooh! Destroy evil!

"Bless our righteousness!

"Long live Borderline!

Hearing the voice of joy unleashed on his mouth, Philip was stunned.

"A monster... a family member, killed? Oh, that's..."

During his visit to Takahiro Mashima, Philip exchanged words face-to-face with all of his family.

It was for a short time, but about one end of it I could feel what they looked like and how much they thought of each other.

I understood that maybe that was something else than what we usually call a 'monster'.

Those girls... they're dead.

Killed.

They lost Takahiro Mashima, the main pillar, and half their power was useless.

No more.

A faint hope was turned down and my knee broke.

Philip drowned like this disappointingly.

It was then.

"... that's odd"

There was a twinkler and a twinkler.

"What's wrong, Master Edgar?"

The same gloomy look Edgar glanced at Lewis.

"... it's too soon for the battle to work out"

"Are you saying that we missed our cause and gave you false alarms?"

Lewis' deputy turned upset.

It was a natural reaction because it was the same thing that we were ketched on for the military merit we gave ourselves.

"No. I'm not gonna tell you. Just..."

After a beat, Edgar asked.

"I told you the monster was dead, but when?

"Huh?"

"It's impossible for a slime without a gap to fall first. If so, is it a fox? Or a doll? You're not gonna mention spiders or anything, are you?

"or… I will confirm"

The deputy had several interactions with the preaching order.

"How'd it go?

"Ha. I will report to you. They say it was the Rabbit that knocked him down."

"... right"

At that moment, Edgar's mouth was torn apart, which was depressing.

Delightful grin.

It was the expression of a fierce carnivore.

"Then you're fucked."

People go the way in the woods.

Delicate face, pointy ears.

It was the elves of the pioneering village.

Some of the lines include cars powered by magic, and manpower luggage cars.

He carries an injured man who has difficulty moving himself.

The elves going down the road had a sad look on their face.

But I didn't give up as one of them.

At the rear of the line, there was the figure of one girl.

A girl with gray hair, dressed in samurai clothes.

He holds a great battle axe in his hand.

It was the manifestation of tension and determination that the inorganic face usually gave a more rigid impression.

And the frown tickled.

There was a white spider looking after me in the rear.

Lord Rose.

Rose asks Garbera calling.

"I did what Lord Kato instructed me to do."

"Good luck. If this works, it'll buy us some time."

Rose, who nodded back, turned her gaze backwards - over there, toward the legion of justice.

"I won't let you like it"
