Chapter 1. Return

Among Duke Meutt's 20,000 troops, there were only 6,000 who survived and retreated.

Only his disciples, including Baron Campbell, and 3,000 cavalry, barely retreated after being attacked by Nigel Jurden. Baron Laurel, the third, led the rest of the troops into battle to the end.

Baron Laurel fought bravely.

When I joined in late and drove out Nigel Jurden, there were only 3,000 soldiers alive. Had it not been for Baron Laurel's struggle, he would have been wiped out by now.

It was heartbreaking because I had to watch him die without saving such a poor person.

I was very tired of fighting alone against the Horn Empire at the Temple of Knights, and I was unable to build a tomb for all the warriors.

Baron Laurel is buried on the ground and, unfortunately, erects a statue that mimics his appearance with spirituality. It was the least of his bravery and sacrifice that he had risked his life for his country and his comrades.

The 3,000 soldiers who survived in front of the tomb, who were in such a hurry, wept with tears. The statue that reproduced the image of life seemed to be alive soon, but he was already a . He can't fight anymore. Now we have to let them rest in peace.

I shouted to the soldiers.

“We have to stop moving! ”

Soldiers can't rest until their comrades have fallen from the wreck for a long time.

“If you hesitate here, the enemy will be pursued again. If you don't want Baron Laurel's sacrifice to be in vain, you need to stop moving. ”

I continued to encourage the soldiers.

“We are not leaving forever. If you win the war, you'll come back and bury your comrades. In order to do that, we have to leave now. ”

Fortunately, the soldiers were just about ready to march again. I led them off.

For now, you must join the group of Campbell birds who have retreated earlier. That way, the soldiers who became Stragglers can feel somewhat anxious under the control of their own master, Campbell. Soldiers must be commanded by their direct commander to gain mental stability.

And I also feel comfortable joining Campbell's crew.

I have become quite weak now that I have almost exhausted my spiritual affinity to the ground. If the enemy attacked now, it was either standing still or abandoning the soldiers and running away alone.

Soldiers begin their march. At least one of the commanders of the thousand ranks survived, so he was able to recover the soldiers well.

I returned all the gnomes, salamanders and silves, leaving only Wounded. The undead inside my body restored my health with healing power.

“Let's go.”

The ceiling commanded the advance. I started walking with the soldiers.

Fatigued footsteps continue for a long time.

Those lifeless expressions of depression...

Those who barely came out of the underworld with their deaths spread so often look like this.

The glory of war is something that can be remembered by those who have never experienced war before.

I wonder how long it's been moving.

Fortunately, I was able to meet with a scout sent by Prince Campbell. It looks like you've set a lot of scouts free in search of surviving allies.

And by nightfall, I was able to join the company of the noble princes of Campbell.

“Your Excellency, you're all right. Thank you so much for rescuing our soldiers. ”

When the 3,000 soldiers who thought they could not escape destruction came back alive, Campbell saw that he was pleased.

“I'm sorry. Baron Laurel couldn't save me. ”

“…… I guessed. How is that your responsibility, Chancellor? It's all my fault. ”

This defeat would have been a major psychological blow to the Campbell Bird.

The deprivation of the Temple of Night was already in the predetermined order. The goal of Duke Meutt in the first place was to delay time as much as possible.

But what was defeated by Nigel Jurden was different.

Of course, there were disadvantages in the situation, but the devastating blow to the battle was the responsibility of Campbell when he was completely in command.

Of course, Nigel's strategic skills were better than his own.

I felt sorry for this. Duke Meutt escaped safely, and many of his disciples survived, and he lost 14,000 men without a spectacular beauty. The value of Duke Meutt's elite troops was more than just numbers.

“Baron Laurel buried it in the plains and erected a statue to impress me. ”

“At least I'm relieved. Thank you so much."

The Campbell cocks his head again. You look really troubled.

* * *

King Erik of South Korea chose to abandon the Kingdom of Leaden as the home of King of South Korea is nothing more than the Duke of Houdini, the author of Houdini, the family of Leyra's brother-in-law.

The Duke of Hoodini was the largest grain cellar in the country, and it was geographically halfway between the Northern and Southern Rhodes of Baden, making it an ideal command for a general war effort.

Because of this, Jeron and Louie came up with a plan to mobilize and unilaterally designate this place as the basis.

In advance, of course, I consulted with the owner of the land, Bird of Hoodini.

Brother Arthur's father-in-law, Prince Houdini, willingly agreed to King Erik's demands and pledged his support to win the kingdom.

He was originally a Houdini writer who focused on Celia in a neutral way, not the Royal and Jehovah sects.

However, when I became the head of the royal family, the Kunt family and the Sadon family, I started leaning toward the royal side, and the war seemed to have made my position as a royal.

It is the Kunt Sadon family that has dispatched two masters and even me, a senior animist and treasurer. As the writer of Houdini has chosen to enter the royal family, the calculations show that he will treat the royal family well.

In response, King Erik has promoted him to Earl and has decided to reduce the amount of tax he will pay to the royal family by half for the next five years. And when the war was over, he made a promise that he would reward me even more.

I thought the Houdini family had seized the opportunity in a crisis of war. Should I say a Merchant Family?

Despite the loss of control of his territory while the Kingdom of Ledden was here, the prince was willing to pledge infinite cooperation to the Royal Court.

It was hard for the Houdini family to survive after the country was destroyed, and if they were to win the war, they would gain a foothold in recognition of their work and rise to the cause.

Otherwise, he was a well-established political writer, Houdini, who joined up with Earl Kunt and was thought to be recorded in history as the family's resurrector.

The vain man who used to love monster stuffed.

The army of Duke Meutt, led by the Duke of Campbell, arrived at the Duke of Houdini in exhausted form.

After the defeat, everyone's body is exhausted by a long march.

“You've finally arrived. ”

The young Chamberlain looked 10 years older.

“Duke Meutt will be taking Zhongyang here as well. ”

“I don't know what to look like. ”

“It's not Campbell's fault. I had no choice. ”

“With the precious soldiers and Priest Laurel gone, that's my book, isn't it? ”

“In that case, it is my responsibility to fail even though I am tasked with saving Duke Meutt. Now, let's not dwell on the past, but let's look at the inferior lung. ”

I have found King Erik with the Bird of Campbell.

It was not necessary to find out where King Erik's temporary palace was located in the order of Houdini.

Jeron came across us.
