Reincarnation into the Barrier Master
Lesson 339: The Breakup of Tears
Later in the night, three days after the meeting with Nike, I was wearing the armor that the Mays had made for me at the Imperial Mansion. I decided to make a run for Sundance this day. The Agarta army is already ready to emerge, and furthermore, the Ramaron Empire is fully prepared. All I had to do was wait for my orders. Vieille had also already put troops on standby at a pre-indicated location, ready to be dispatched at any time.
A day before I went back to this, I secretly headed to Sundange, extended my legs to near the swamp occupied by the Tana Army, and kept a transfer junction there. It is precisely across the river that the Tannat army can be seen. It has gone so far that it has established its boundaries. Altogether, we also kept the transition junction to Swamp at Ramaron and Vieille's. In the operation, the three armies of Agarta, Ramaron and Vieille were to be transferred to this place at the same time, and the Sundange army was also supposed to join in the form of a response to it. Naturally, for the sake of secrecy, there were several poseihais packed in Ramarons and Vieilles.
Fortunately, this place called Swamp can get foggy at dawn this time of year. It is a manoeuvre to end the Great Army and attack the Tana Army at once. For that reason, it was supposed to be late at night, before nightfall.
Despite the late night, Mae and Sidi are putting some tequila and armor on me. Nothing, you could have worn it in my office, but this armor is made to fit my body, and at the same time, it seems to have an order to wear it, which makes them pretty complicated. The armor looks simple to make at first glance, but it is actually made of a combination of several thin plates. For this reason, its making is extremely exquisite, and if there is even a slightly strange part of it, it becomes overall strange. As a result, we were supposed to wear this armor at the Imperial Mansion so that we could respond quickly when something went wrong. As always, May and Sidi carefully wear their armor without rest. As I admired the way it was, I entrusted myself to the two of them, like a carp on a plank.
"... I can do it"
Return to me with May's voice. It's so light that I really don't think you're wearing armor. I try to move my hands and feet, but I'm not uncomfortable at all.
"Wow this armor...... I don't think you're wearing it."
To my voice, May and Sidi are nodding face-to-face.
"Master, give me your sword..."
Speaking of which, I didn't put my sword on it. I didn't think my appearance in the mirror was very firm, but I didn't have a sword. I smile unexpectedly.
Infinite storage contains "ghost cut," "holly sword," and "black knife". There are other swords given to me by Lord Dwarf when he welcomed Sidi to his wife, but it is kept at the hotel in Agarta. To be too luxurious, I wear it when I need to wear it at a party or something, so one way or another, it's not suitable for real combat.
I think of each sword in my head. And soon it was decided.
"Holy Sword."
I take it out of infinite storage and give it to May. She received it and groaned as she excused herself with a small voice, and when she raised it respectfully, slowly pulled the sword out of her sheath.
May stares at herself. I look carefully at the sword over and over again from the pattern to the cutting edge.
"Beautiful..."
I heard voices across the door. When Sidi opened the door, there was the figure of Eryl and Alilia.
"Come on, you can't both peek. Go to sleep."
"Ugh... sorry..."
Both of them keep their heads down with peculiarities. The look is adorable.
"Eryl, Alilia, come on in."
They were looking at each other, but eventually they approached my side with a patty and a small run. I'll get my sword from May, I'll get one knee down and I'll nadenade my daughters' heads.
"Eryl. Alilia. Though I may not be able to come back for a while. I'll take care of my brothers while they're away."
"When are you coming back?
Alilia asks me with a worried look on her face. I speak to her with a smile.
"I'll be right there. I'll be right back."
"Come home soon."
"Oh, okay"
When I look him in the eye, he stares at the holly sword that Eryl is holding in my left hand.
"Eryl, what's going on?
She shook her body freaking out at my words, but eventually opened her mouth slowly with a very hard look to say.
"That sword... one more time... I want to see"
"Eryl..."
He's shaking his head with the look May gives him. I control May with my right hand and turn to Eryl again.
"Well, do you want to see this sword? All right."
I get up, put my hand on the pattern, and slowly pull myself through. Then I fell on one knee again and showed her the sword.
"Beautiful..."
Eyes round and surprised Eryl. I open my mouth slowly watching it.
"This is the sword your mother and I made together."
Eryl glanced at me with a surprised look on her face. Huh? You can build a sword? A look like that. Well, technically, it was May who built this sword, and I simply instilled magic in him.
"So it fits, doesn't it?
May nods with a gentle grin at my words. I sheath my sword as I look at it.
"Eryl, I asked for it."
She nodded forcefully as she tied her mouth to a single letter.
When I left the room, Matokal stood in the hallway in his pyjamas. Bringing in Eryl and Alilia was apparently a matocal.
"Matto, please stay asleep"
"It doesn't work either. I should have..."
Matokal shifted his gaze away from me with a sorry look on his face. She was resting a lot these days because she saw signs of miscarriage as soon as she found out about her pregnancy. In fact, there were many strategies she had in mind, and the soldiers were also sharply trained by her. As far as I'm concerned, I was just thinking of Mato as the commander of the attack unit, and that calculation was totally screwed.
"No, the soldiers Mato trained will be seen by the general. Besides, I'm taking Knogen with me, so we'll figure it out."
"Please...... And Princess Rufana..."
"Oh, I'll put it on Knogen's side and make sure he doesn't do anything unscrupulous."
I answer with a bitter laugh. She had a strong desire to defeat the enemies of the Salfateh people. I allowed her to serve in a way that took root, but I had to say that her strength was considerably lower than that of a mat or a kunogen, and first of all, she decided to put it on the side of the kunogen to see how it went.
"Mato, your body will be cold..."
May talks worryingly. Matokal nodded cocklessly with the look of sorry.
"I'll take care of the kids. Eryl, Arilia, let's go back to your room."
"I asked you, Mato. May and Sidi, thank you for your hard work. Go back to your room and rest."
"But..."
"May, Master Linos is fine. I'm telling you, no doubt about it."
"It's comforting to have Sidi say that. No, I'm happy for you. But when I'm dropped off, I feel bad about something. So..."
"Okay. So... you're not going."
"Welcome aboard"
May and Sidi bowed their heads respectfully. Matocal nodded small at me, holding Eryl and Alilia's hand, and I nodded loudly at her, too.
"Okay, I'm coming"
I turned my heel back and went down the stairs.
As he left and tried to make his way to a place with a metastatic junction, the building of his mother's house entered his eyes. Maybe we'll lose. If we lose, we won't be able to come back here again...... Such thoughts poke at my chest. I shake my head and try to dispel an idea that's not even such an edge. At that time, the victory of the mother house opened without sound.
"Rico......"
There, Rico stood. She comes near me laughing at Nicole.
"Finally, you're going"
"Oh, I'm coming. I'll definitely be back."
That's when Rico hugged me. I hug her back gently.
"Forgive me"
"What's up?
"I have to drop you off if you're not going. As a wife, I have to resolutely drop off my husband's appearance. But... but... I don't want you to go... if you can... keep going..."
"Rico......"
Rico's body slowly left me. She opens her mouth as she wipes her tears with her hands, making her best smile.
"Go... Welcome. Good luck..."
I held Rico in silence. And he made a strong vow to come back to her.
