Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

We celebrated a new year. It was a mild new year the same as usual, but not a no-horn atmosphere as usual. Measures against the Kingdom of Tana were underway in Agarta in the wake of the demise of the Kingdom of Sarfate last fall. At its heart are Mae, Sidi, and Matocal, and that's what they had busy days around the corner.

Moreover, it was found that there would be a considerable financial burden in carrying out the measures of the Kingdom of Tana, which had to be dealt with as well. Exactly, that's out of hand in Ferris and Rualla. So since we were in December, Rico had returned to the scene, and with his amazing processing power, he had made a brilliant adjustment to Agarta's finances.

Eryl and other babysitters, for whom Rico had previously been in charge at the imperial mansion, are now engaged with Soleil as a delight. This is working because we are already playing together, just like our kids, and the kids, we miss Soleil by calling him Mummy.

As such, my family had hit on things at the general event, but just about decided to force everyone to rest for New Year's holiday. Mae and Matokal were concerned about their work because the roots were serious, but they seemed relieved too because Sidi was confident there and said it was no problem.

Most of all, it was the children who were happy. There's always a mother who's never been around. They are all perfectly sweet to their mothers. Among other things, Eryl had become quite firm as to whether her consciousness as a sister had come into being, and to take care of her brother's ideas.

I'm happy as a father, but the sadness creeps up a bit when I think that this is how I'm going to grow up and end up leaving me on my own.

And after New Year's break, we got back to our usual jobs. But then a while later, the incident happened.

On this day, which was coming to an end in January, the map suddenly opened when the number of nobles and national messengers visiting the greetings for the New Year had become smaller, and the cane feeling of the New Year had finally faded, concentrating on the work that was finally accumulating in the office. If you think what the hell it is, it shows a red mark on the meadow a few kilometers from the capital. That number is about 50. The moment I open the window and try to call Sadakichi, the Fairy Dragon shows up in good time.

It's an enemy attack.

"Who are they?

"Looks like Anted"

"Anted? When the hell did he show up?

'I don't know. I was on alert, but suddenly I showed up'

'Well, okay. Keep an eye on that anted.'

"Understood."

That's how Fairy Dragon disappeared. I ring the bell and call people.

"Hostile attack. Get me a general and a mato."

When the soldier left the room, I whined to no one.

"Has Hayes started to move...?

After a while, Lafayence and Matocal came to the office. I told the two of them there was a reaction to the map, and apparently Anted showed up. They look at each other and look strange in my story.

"Why is Anted...? No, I'm not talking about..."

"What do you mean, it's not a story, Mato?

"Nah, it's common for people to come back as anteds with evil spirits in their bodies, or strong grudges and hatred in the dead, which take in the magic in the air. But from the end of last year until now, I have never heard of as many as 50 human beings within Agarta, etc., and on top of that, this Agarta spirit is perfectly placed under the control of Lord Soleil. Untie the anted, etc."

To such a matocal, the old general opens his mouth to teach, with his usual nihil grin.

"No, perhaps it was the work of those who attacked Lord Linos. They must have used the Metastatic Square."

"But, General. Because I don't know what the enemy is after. We're halfway there to attack the capital by number and distance."

"Isn't it the Duke of Baxon?

In a word of the old general, Matokal gives a hazy look.

"I see! Indeed, the Duke of Baxon of the Lowin Empire, will be leaving today. When the Duke is attacked..."

"Don't let Agarta's trust fall. Besides, if you left the anted in the country..."

"The opportunistic country leaves Agarta at once..."

I was listening to that conversation in silence, and I open my mouth with my gaze to both of them.

"First, we have to crusade Anted. The Duke of Baxon... hasn't left yet, has he? What a good patrol you are to be late for departure at a time like this. All right, I'll go."

Matocal rushes into stopping me trying to get out of my chair.

"Wait! The enemy may be trying to attract Master Linos. Here, I'll go. Let me go."

I turn my gaze to Lafayence. He grins and nods nicely. I slowly exhale and open my mouth towards Matocal.

"Well, Mato, can I ask you a favor? Instead of me going, take Knogen. Take the best you can, soldier."

"Okay."

Seeing me and Matocal interact, the old general leaks a hoof and a grin.

"General, what's wrong?

"No, I thought you were still an asshole. If this looks like it, there's going to be another family soon."

Me and Matokal face to face, I'm out of line. If you look closely, Matocal's face was bright red.

Matokal, who left Linos' office, quickly set out with Knogen and 200 horsemen towards the point where Anted was said to have left. And it was found right away. Anteds were raging in the hillside. Matocal takes off his helmet and gazes at the sight.

"... you're lucky to be unhappy. Pretty fierce anted. Crusade now."

Matokal wears his helmet again and tries to run the horse, but Kunogen holds it back.

"Please wait. Leave this place to us. Please wait here, Master Matokal."

"No, that's not how it works. First I..."

"No, they're Anted. Dear Matokal, if you are slashed down by yourself, you will not be trained by the soldiers you have brought."

Knogen laughs nicely. Matokal gestured like he had been thinking for a while, but eventually nodded slowly.

"Go on with me!

Under Knogen's decree, the soldiers head to Anted in a controlled move.

Watching the battle from the top of the hill, the crusade was one-sided. The anteds showed fierce resistance, but the intrusions were round hips and were defeated one after the other without scratching one Agarta army equipped with weapons, protective equipment.

Looking at the state of it, Matokal ponders what the hell this anted had in mind. From what I've seen, it doesn't look like some army is hiding, nor is it magically attacked. For a moment, I kept the Agarta army attracted and thought it might be an operation for a separate unit to attack the capital, which has an Agarta army headquarters led by Lafayence. Besides, there's Linos. I don't think it's easy to get attacked. And if so, what was the enemy's aim... With that in mind, I realized that the view around me was moving slowly.

He returns to me and looks around. Then he noticed that Matocal's beloved horse was slowly running towards the woods.

It was impossible. Not a horse who behaves unsolicited without his own direction. Matocal pulls the reins in surprise.

"Hey... what's going on... Hawk, how, how"

No matter how many times you pull the reins, the horse keeps walking without stopping. It was a matocal in confusion on the horse but desperately trying to stop it, but in a mundane moment, the horse suddenly stopped its steps. When I noticed it was in the woods, and in front of me the trees grew to stand.

"What's wrong, Hawk..."

She talks as she hands on her horse's neck.

... Dossssssss!

An unexpected shock ran on her shoulder. Matocal slowly fell on his beloved horse's back.
