As the Kanis Imperial Blue Army invaded the Great Forest of Gaisenfall, it adopted a way to cut through the regional veins one by one.
The Imperial Blue Army, which invaded the forest, mobilized a large number of magicians to perform ritual magic, while building a double triple vigilance network to combat obstruction.
Parallel to the ritual, it uses force in restoration and defense by damaging the forest trees connected to the ground vein, reducing resistance even locally, and taking away the ground vein.
When the battle broke out, the first priority was to do the damage to the elves. The soldiers of the Imperial Blue Army have as many replacements as they can, but the Elves already had their power to the bottom.
There is no oddity there. It's just that the overwhelming amount of material exceeds the opponent's ability to deal with it.
The trees in the realm taken away by the Empire were moderately felled and physically transformed into easily fought realms of the Imperial Army.
The timber thus obtained was naturally also used by the Imperial Army.
Beyond gaining control of the earth's veins, it's easy to combine the elemental magic of the earth with wood to create an impromptu fortress.
The trees that the elves have been raising with strength for many years are strong and pass through magic well. It was such a delicacy that it was inevitable to use it as a material for the fort.
Take the forest, cut the trees, and build the position with its lumber. The Imperial Army had already built eight positions in the Great Forest, using its network as a bedrock scaffold.
It was a stone. Until that night.
"Fire attack...!? The elves!?
Captain/Flaming Fluorescent of the Blue Army XI, who keeps a second fort close to the outer edge of the forest, was raised to a bell announcing an enemy attack as he slept in the fort's living room.
Looking out the square-cut window, the stars were scorching and the night was burning.
The fort is built by connecting the soil deformed by the magic of the earth with the wood cut out of the forest by stone, and encircling the camp with a simplified walls.
There was a fire on all of it.
No, it's not just the position. Even the forest outside it is burning. The surrounding trees were burning to surround the position.
From beyond the burning trees, a fire arrow flies, pulling the tail of a flame like a meteor.
It pierces the walled corridor and burns away.
Elves hate fire anyway. The elf forest trees couldn't have burned easily, but they still hated the fact that the forest was damaged by fire, and they just sometimes used it for cooking in extremely limited areas.
But such elves dealt with the fire arrows, and set fire to their forests, so to speak of the realm taken by the Blue Army.
No.
Maybe it's not an elf.
The other day, a voice echoed in the woods. An unusual elf forest......
He's involved. From the north came the scourge "Princess Rose of Grievances".
"... the fire around you is just a falsehood. In any case, no trees have grown in such a burning place here. Focus on preventing fire arrows. Let those who are free hit the fire."
"Already so"
A purple-haired girl wearing a ragged, black-haired armor... According to human standards, a woman who looks like a girl responds.
He jumped into the room for a report, a flaming lieutenant/Sky Railroad. The Dwarf woman stopped growing on her appearance, about 12 or 3 years old, by human standards, and remains the same until she dies. But Sky Iron was over the age of 80, which can also be described as already middle-aged for Dwarves, and was a warring samurai.
"... but there's a problem"
Sky iron, always an iron skin, seeped through the agitation.
"What?"
"I have a place (...) in (...) et al. (...) and (...).
Surrounded by fire, the basement is ready to use the elemental magic of fire, and… "
◇
A dry breeze of heat blows through the woods at night.
A giant beast with flaming furrows steps and drives through the cracked earth.
Depending on what you see, the loving, bulldog-faced demon sprays a flame of desperate power that is not adorable at all, and sears the outer perimeter walls of the position with a blazing fire.
The walls bundled with sharpened lumber were fortified by demonization of the wood in the elf forest. It's not supposed to burn so easily, but it burns up easily.
Not only the exterior walls, but the fortifications behind them are burning, as are the lookouts arranged everywhere.
Fire arrows that were fired directly were fired in one after the other, but there was a reason why those arrows were easily ignited and inflamed.
Someone sits on the head of a giant beast with a crown-like, metallic horn as a clue.
He is wearing a white dress smudged with a rose of blood...... skeleton.
It's Rene who takes Rich's appearance.
Forge carries and drives Rene through the wand of the curse.
Beneath its feet it dries and cracks, and the grass withers brown.
"Dry World (Draughtfield)".
Magic that physically and magically thoroughly weakens the power of 'water' present in a certain area. Even people die dry if they are affected long enough.
Under this magical rule, wood and other igniters are the same.
Amidst the lush forests is an area dominated by the power of water, and the elemental magic of fire cannot exert its full power. But Rene set fire to the woods, using it as a "dry world (Draughtfield)" to increase his own magical accuracy and create a space strictly forbidden to fire.
No matter how strong Rene is, he won't destroy the position with one blow.
If so, the result of this operation was that I thought it would be more effective to turn to support.

"... I mean, this fire attack, it can't be prevented...?
Unexpectedly, the flaming screen hits a narrow window.
Clearly the fire is stronger than earlier. The condition had deteriorated even for a short time talking to Sky Rail.
I didn't envisage any more danger of fire than almost creating wooden positions.
The walls and the like were demonized even briefly, connecting the essential points to the ground vein to consolidate the defense.
It should have been a necessary and sufficient measure, but it was broken. By the absurd way of lighting the woods to enhance magic and ritual-grade wide-area magic.
"Anyway, it's a rescue request! If we hold out until the Sixth Squad arrives outside the woods..."
When the flame flickered, there was no sky iron there.
Instead, a strange girl in empty iron clothes and armor stood.
Carry a hand mirror on one hand and a distorted blade shaped like a three-day moon on the other. Height is a little higher than sky iron.
"... Sky iron?
He's not here anymore.
"Who are you..."
"No, Captain. I have to choose more merchants to put in the fort.
Except for the elves and the undead, you didn't do much research. "
At least I understood that she was a crook.
Flaming Hotaru took the setup of the Kanis Imperial Army martial arts "Dragon Hand".
The Dragon Hand is a martial arts technique that also envisages crossing with an opponent with a blade. But Hotaru was only educated once on the street in the Blue Army. I'm not going to beat the line of opponents, but it was never my specialty.
The weapon that Flaming Fluorescent specializes in is a spear that exceeds even its own height. That's not here right now. Where it was, it's too big to swing indoors.
The sleeping flame screen is not even wearing armor.
Without distracting himself from the suspicious girl, Jirijiri and the backward flaming fluorescent with a dragon-handed erection reach behind his back to the sword that was standing on his pillow.
But the flaming hand cut off the sky.
"Could this be what you're looking for?
"Become..."
Shows the sword the girl had hidden on her back, right in front of the flaming screen.
That is certainly a flaming sword that should have been standing on the pillow of the bed until just now. It should have been there, at least, when Flaming Fluorescent woke up.
Girl throws flaming sword behind her back.
At the same time, Flaming Hotaru fisted like a squeezed bow and jumped at the girl.
"Huh!"
The blow unleashed with the temper completely captured the girl's body.
It should have been.
Blood splashes.
Pain like burning.
"What, so... when..."
"" The Flaming Fluorescent of the Big Spear, "take it away. Round hips, sorry."
The girl who was supposed to be in front of me was tearing the flaming neck deep from behind.
