Price of Management

< -- 523 times: cost of management is 20 volumes -->

I, the most fearful being, screamed because I was happy to fall down without much effort.

Along with him, the trumpet sounds long.

Pow!

At the same time, one of the five cavalry forces initiated an assault. A grim knight in black armor appears at the forefront. That was the Black Cross Knights...... led by the Marquis of Great Gen.

At this rate, I will be trampled by the fierce Black Cross Knights and 20,000 horsemen. Or maybe the Marquis of the Great Gentiles will slit my throat or take me by the throat.

I shouldn't have been so humiliated!

Any friendlies?

I looked at your faction.

Someone in your faction was running to save me. Just one…….

It was Duke Meutt who ran to the short-term horse.

“Grab it!”

Duke Meutt reaches down with his torso bent on horseback. I raised my right hand hard.

“Ugh...! ”

The right shoulder is sore and sore, making it hard to hold it for long. My right arm didn't hold straight, and I shuddered.

Fortunately, Duke Meutt grabbed my wrist.

My body flashed up and jumped over the horse's back.

Duke Meutt suddenly turned his horse and ran to the central Union faction.

“I thought I told you to wait until the middle of the battle. ”

A light deduction.

I grumbled and barely spoke back.

“I'm sorry. Ugh, I was going to say hi, but I didn't think it would.... ”

“I could feel her stretching out everywhere. Is it some kind of sealing spell that limits animosity? ”

“Yes. The spirits were powerless. ”

“That's why they didn't attack first. That's why we've been waiting. When you flew into the sky, I was going to use this to bring you down. He was going to kill himself in the crash, or at least he was going to hurt himself and demoralize our side. ”

“Ugh... As you can see, it worked. ”

“Where does it hurt? ”

“My whole body.”

“Tell me where it hurts the most. ”

Duke Meutt gives Pinzan. I told you my left leg was broken.

Duke Meutt took a healing potion and poured it halfway down my leg while I was running. The other half took my mouth and let me drink.

The broken left leg bone sticks together again, and the pain of the whole body that was likely to break subsides.

By the time the wounded have recovered, we have arrived at the Allied Forces' camp. Duke Meutt, who dropped me off, instructed the soldiers around him.

“Bring me the pill you told me about. ”

“Old!”

The soldier quickly brought me a pill.

“Take it back to the king. ”

“Thank you for saving me, Duke. ”

“Remember what I told you. ”

“I understand.”

“Now go. The Marquis of Great Gen is coming this way. As expected, the enemy will defeat our alliance of lords first. ”

“Yes!”

I rode a horse.

- Dad, are you okay?

- I'm sorry...

Norm and Wounded sat on both my shoulders in tears. I said with a smile.

“He's okay now. I'm alive because of you guys. ”

From the wizards to the ashes!

The salamander on top of my head expressed anger as he roared the streets. A guy with a fire all over his body looks as dangerous as a demon because he's angry as fire.

When I returned, King Erik asked me with a worried face.

“Are you okay, Chancellor? ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I'm sorry I came back with nothing but bad style. ”

“Are you joking? What the hell happened to you? ”

“I couldn't use the animosity. It appears to be some kind of spirit restraining magic, and the power of spirits is being limited in this area. ”

“Looks like the magical soldiers of the Horn Empire were wasting their money on research. ”

“We need to figure out how magic works and how it works. ”

“I'll call the Wizard. Talk to him. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Then a middle-aged man dressed as a wizard came to us.

I haven't called yet, but when the wizard came, I was dumbfounded. The wizard replied.

“Call Harry. Military booth called for me. ”

Jeron, of course.

As soon as he saw me crash, he knew it was magic and called for a wizard to consult him.

“Harry? No last name? ”

“Yes, I am a commoner. ”

“I'm surprised you're so good at this. ”

“I'm a master of five circles. This floor didn't feel the need to get noble status because it didn't matter what skill it had. Anyway, it's an honor to meet you, Mr. Wise Man of Leaden. ”

“Did you hear a sage when you saw the comedy just now? ”

“Hahaha...! I'm sorry. I'm sorry. ”

“I'm sorry. Laugh if you want. But tell me what you know about this sorcerer. ”

“Yes, but let's look at the different ways in which Mana is transformed, which is similar to the principle of dark magic. ”

“I will. Perhaps the Magic Troops have been working with the Black Wizards on an animistic countermeasure. ”

“I see. You heavenly bastards! ”

“Come on, keep explaining. ”

“Oh, yeah. Anyway, this is perhaps a magic that limits aesthetics. ”

Harry then looked around at the spirits sitting on my head and shoulders and said,

“There's no problem with summoning and decommissioning, but it's a limited structure if you try to use a spirit, right? ”

“That's right."

“I see. But I hear you're one of the spirits, Noam, Woundee and Salamander, and Silf...?" ”

“An Intermediate Spirit. We just signed a contract. ”

“Then can you ask Sylph if it's difficult to keep him summoned? ”

I looked at the Silf standing still beside me.

The one who looked just like me sighed deeply and muttered.

- I'm tired... tired...

This defenseless fellow. Just like I was when Leyra divorced me.

“…… I heard that? ”

“I knew it! This sorcery group seems to limit the existence of spirits as well. However, there is nothing more powerful than a higher spirit.Silf, the Intermediate Spirit, seems to be having trouble maintaining its summoning status. If you were a feisty Minor Spirit, you wouldn't be able to summon it. ”

“I see. But is there anything more useful? ”

“I keep looking, too. Wait……. ”

Harry closes his eyes and focuses his mind, then says again a long time later.

“This enchantment is made up of a huge circle, probably about a mile or two in diameter, and it's very difficult to use it. ”

“What if we were to use animosity two kilometers away? ”

“Like that raging flame before you, you'll lose your powers when something with an animisty spell enters the enchantment. ”

“Damn it.”

“But I have good news, Mr. President. ”

“What's that? ”

“This sorcery must be kept alive until the wizards continue to blow Mana. If you disconnect the Mana supply, the enchantment will also disappear. ”

“So it's hard to keep the Mage alive because they're running out of Mana?" ”

“That's... that's not it, but the amount of Mana it costs to keep magic is actually not that great. Manat is a huge consumption for me, but there are a lot of wizards in the Magic Legion over there. Perhaps we can hold out until the end of this battle. ”

“Hey, that's not good news at all. ”

“No. The President will need a tug-of-war for them to run out of Mana. ”

“What does that mean? ”

“The amount of Mana it costs to maintain the enchantment is only a few, but if His Holiness exerts spirituality, they will need to spend more Mana to suppress it and increase their suppression. ”

“Then, when we fell earlier, Norm and Woundee were able to exert their power temporarily.... ”

“Yes, because the Magic Troops exerted more spiritual power than the suppression they inflicted on Mana. although, of course, the magical army saw that and injected more Mana, and soon the spirit's power was suppressed. ”

“What a tug-of-war. ”

“Yes. If the Chancellor remains silent and performs spirituality in the unlikely event, they will be stunned every time and put in a large amount of Mana." We need to keep them running out of Mana that way. And then when they lose their strength... ”

“Okay. Then we'll keep on the tug-of-war until we break this damn sorcerer in the middle of the battle." ”

“That's it! ”

However, Harry spoke cautiously in his naïve tone.

“Only one thing worries me. ”

“What?”

“How many wizards are there in the enemy camp……. If there are many wizards out there, your power may be depleted before they do. ”

“Knng... ”

I groaned.

As Harry pointed out.

The combined forces of the Marquis of Great Gen, the Marquis of Juden, and the forces of the Marquis of Kars and Halstein add up to about 300,000.

With only 120,000 of them, Emperor Kars appeared here. The rest of the troops have been dispatched to the north, east and west to occupy the territories as soon as they can.

But what if all of the 350,000 troops had brought the Wizards here?

The number of wizards in three or more circles will add up to a hundred magical soldiers!

It was very likely that Emperor Kars had focused on the wizards, the only way to stop me.

In a way, even less than half of our allies, Emperor Kars' 120,000 was not just a hundred thousand, but rather a very high percentage of wizards.

It means that Emperor Kars didn't just inflict disadvantages on himself to show off his abilities!

“This is a real pain in the ass. ”

I stopped mumbling with my bored face. I think I have the same face as Sylph right now.
