Oukoku e Tsuzuku Michi

I'll hang everyone on the field and stir up a glass of wine I've prepared.

"Are you calm?

Pour extra liquor into the cup and serve to the man sitting in the front - Linuga.

Has it been about an hour since the battle ended?

I really wanted to hear it on the spot, but even after the enemy disappeared, I grabbed my fist and saw this guy eating up my teeth, and I decided to give him a break for a while.

If it's a normal war, it's just after I've seen their alienation and numbers.

There's no point in being upset and being told stories that don't make sense.

"Oh...... but don't drink"

Linuga returns the cup to me.

He looks anxious, but he seems calm for once.

"Hmm, then who do you guys drink?"

I turn the cup next door.

Dings turns next door after a gratuitous rejection.

Tristan turns next door again without a moment of hesitation, and Myra continues.

Then he turns to Leopold, who seems to regret it, and Leopold stands up with a cup.

"I find things to be quite serious. The leader should not be distracted by alcohol for the sake of accurate judgment."

Leopold puts the cup in front of me.

Then why didn't you stop drinking with me at the top of the list?

"No slight disturbance of thought allowed."

"About a glass of booze...... dude. It's the worst thing you can do to upset my mind."

I grab the cup forcefully and give it to Raffaella, the knight who clings to my back.

When she grabbed it with one hand, she began to drink it elegantly little by little. Isn't that a pretty trick?

By the way, Raffaella has been on my back since the fight.

He shuddered crying as soon as he tried to get him down at the right time waiting for Linuga.

I guess I was extra scared that the big spider was about to eat me.

It would seem fine if me and a part of my body were stuck together, so I was holding hands at first, but I'm putting them on my back because I'm dumb about anything.

……

I feel silent pressure from all directions, but not me succumbing to such ambiguity.

Raffaella turns a blind eye when she meets me and doesn't get used to each other.

Of course, my hands are around my neck, and my feet are tight enough not to slip off.

"Then it's time to talk. Let's start with the history of the encounter. When, Where, and How"

Leoporto urges Linuga to spare us that.

It is not hostile in vain, but the friendly atmosphere is a voice at all.

Linuga leans back and puts her head on like a barometric pressure.

My men around me also wrinkle between my eyebrows.

"Our garrison is a military plane, except..."

When Dings slaps Don and his desk, Linuga shakes his shoulders frighteningly to control his men.

"... there's no more military planes and nothing left to get here... and the fortress is gone in the first place"

As a good thing we're talking fast, it's still unreliable to stand out.

Here's what Linuga said.

The date is ten nights ago.

They were there almost directly south of Kissat, in a castle fortress built in the former Vandrea area, to solidify their defenses in preparation for our counterattack. The number has attracted 10,000 guards and conscripts from the surrounding area.

"They came all of a sudden from the west... only a few at first, and succeeded in taking them away even though they sacrificed themselves to unparalleled clutter such as goblins"

But with every passing night, the number of enemies grew.

"At first there were big spiders, worms on the second day, and other demons on the third day, and each time the sacrifice increased at an accelerating rate. Still, what we cage is a stone fortress. There were catapults on the crossbow, even cannons, and piles of arrowballs. Those who had fled the surrounding towns also mobilized to fight and managed to keep pushing them back"

But every time the enemy repelled, it multiplied and came back.

On the dawn of the fifth day, the resistance ended when the fortress was crushed, losing the bulk of the squad and walking north.

"I haven't heard from the country since the first day they left. The messenger will not return, nor will the scourge return. I should have joined the main unit in the west..."

You're wiped out.

When I say it, Linuga's men stare at us.

I guess that's why you guys fled north, too.

"Sir Hardlett, please refrain. More than that, I want to know the characteristics, the intensity, of each of the demons we've just talked about."

Leopold interrupts us.

Even I didn't want to provoke you.

So stop grilling the mistletoe, Raffaella.

Demonic traits are told from the mouths of the linugas. Information is also learned from the mouths of other men and soldiers active in combat.

I move next to Celia and peek into Celia notes.

First the big spider...... spiders would be fine.

It is 2 to 3 m in size and very rarely more than 5 m in size.

The method of attack is slaughter by toenails and stabbing a tube out of the mouth to suck off fluid. Apparently the latter injects poison at the same time, and if you eat it, even if you help it, you die immediately. Tough enough for size, but the body surface is soft and all sword spears and arrows work.

It's basically walking with eight legs as it seems, but sometimes it jumps and comes packing the distance all at once.

The fastest moving, the first to chase them.

Did I just say "enemy soldier" because of the large number?

Five soldiers can generally take advantage.

Next Worm.

Individual differences are severe from less than 1 m to more than 10 m in length. The shape is just a little obscene.

The attack is due to a circularly wide open mouth and sharp fangs in the mouth. Huge things have the power to pull a thousand torso pieces from each piece of armor, but small things can't be caught off guard because they also penetrate through the mouth, genitals, and anus and devour the organs.

The body surface is wrapped in a soft but extremely elastic skin, slashing and arrows are almost ineffective, and crushing the guts with blunt weapons is effective.

The speed is slow to twist and move like a mite, but if there is a scratch, it also climbs up the vertical wall.

These are the ones that show up next to the spiders. You can't fight dominance without ten soldiers.

And beetles. I've never seen this either, so I can't name it.

The total length is about two meters smaller than the spider at a time.

The attack depends on the sharp fangs on the mouth, but some individuals fly thorns that have grown on some of their backs.

The body surface was extremely stiff, and when they fought in the fortress, they had no effective attack other than a catapult or other siege weapon.

Whether the hard body surface was heavy or not. The movement was extremely dull, he stepped on even the lower steps, and it was the last time he showed up at the fortress.

Did you just say enemy heavy-duty infantry?

Seems like the only way to do it properly is with a siege weapon while attacking with eight soldiers.

"Well, that's it - it doesn't look like it"

Linuga and her men were shaking with their heads.

"There's him... the one who smashed our fortress..."

"A giant looking down at a 20m viewing platform... nine heads eating through stone walls... a steel-coated outline that begins with both cannons and great crossbows..."

Linuga feeds her fingers into her own hair.

"Our team, the castle, was basically kicked in by one of them. We couldn't stop it if we all joined forces."

I want you to tell me the specs because it's good to be scared.

Uh...

Nine hundred feet, cheap but bug hydra okay?

Height over 20 meters. Horizontal width unknown, monster.

The way to attack is a fang on nine heads...... no, if it's really this size, it'll just crush you by twisting your body.

The armor on the body surface plays the cannon and is flat even with boiling oil.

As soon as he showed up, the castle fortress was destroyed, so the speed details are unknown... you wouldn't be exaggerating.

If you believe in this performance, you can't fathom it by lining up with hundreds of soldiers.

"This is trouble again."

Tristan shows a dry laugh and drops a note on his desk.

"What do you think of Leopold?

"How dare you not know the details of beetles and what seems to be the most threatening demons. Either way, it must be a daunting threat. You'll need to revisit your tactics from the ground up."

When he answers, Leopold puts his finger on his chin and starts to think of something.

"The hope is that they will retreat when the morning sun comes out. Without it, we would have all been killed."

Saying you don't like the sun doesn't mean you can take it down with it, like a vampire.

Now they were trying to avoid the sun, but they weren't burning or weakening otherwise.

Similar to Brunhilde just avoiding it because I simply hate it...... I can hear you sneezing.

"After all, they are of the curse called by the devil..."

"Abstract stories are good. Any other weaknesses?

Then Raffaella on her back squeals bossly.

"Fire..."

Fire? Sure, the spider that burned up concentrating the fire arrows was stuffy, but that would be human, but it would be a beast, but it's natural. Rather, it can be said that he is not afraid of fire to push from behind the flaming guy as well.

I heard the worm Hydra didn't even use the boiled oil and it seems strong for heat.

"They always came from less pine directions. The last raid was also slow on the rear legs... from that side because we got a bunch of villagers who didn't have pine lights"

"You mean not fire itself, but light, whether it be the sun or the pine light, thoroughly avoiding light"

I don't know because I'm an underground creature. But I don't.

Theoretically, you could just burn the pine lights all over and do it like daylight, but it's impossible to achieve.

Is this what makes them so weak?

Then, above all, we need to hear the key part.

"Where did those guys come from?

"I won't have a hard time knowing that."

I keep blocking Linuga's reply.

"There was a big hole in the ground recently. Or didn't you hear about the crash at the mine?

I'm pretty sure they boiled from the basement.

At least they're not the ones who usually dig wells and come out.

There's got to be a fancy big hole to get out of all that wacko.

"... that doesn't sound familiar. The mines are fully operational, so if there's anything unusual, we should be able to tell them right away."

"Sir Hardlett."

Leoporto looms just knowing what.

I'll teach you. Just wait a little longer. Don't come near me with no expression because I'm creepy.

"You're sending an emergency message to Eirich, aren't you?

"Already at the start of the engagement"

"Send extra. In addition to the information I've just compiled, I'd like you to look for a big hole in the ground. If we don't find it soon, the world will really end."

If you lose to an enemy, give up your hands and surrender, and then you have the option of running away, but in a worm opponent, you only feed.

"Send a messenger to Lindblum, too. To Barbano, a people of fire. He'll be asleep drunk anyway, so if you don't hear back, hit the entrance to the pit and wake him up."

"Such an unscrupulous..."

Ignore the frightening Tristan.

"If you come out mad, tell him: 'Nara's open'. Roll, but it should come."

That's all I say, get up and ask Linuga.

"Are they coming tonight?

"I will always come where I left off once. Double, no, it's gonna triple."

Then we should leave immediately.

"Back north. Give evacuation orders to all the villagers in the vicinity. Move as quickly as possible behind carriages and cavalry"

"And the people of the enemy?

Dings asks as he looks at Linuga.

"Enough with the enemy allies. Judge by bugs or people."

And I grab Linuga's shoulder and stick it out in front of Dings.

"Now follow this guy's instructions. War begins when the holes are blocked."

Fine, tap Dings' chest gently and stroke Raffaella's hair.

"I see the rumors of grandeur are correct..."

"Under the devil... but more than the belly of a worm..."

Move quickly without saying a bump.

Don't come any closer because Leopold will talk about Natsuo.

What are you going to do if you hit it on your lips by mistake?
