Running Away From The Hero!

# 57 Their Reason: A soldier's Reason

Bombardment falling. It was the same thing every day.

The magic that I usually couldn't even watch was everyday here. Magic didn't cost money.

It takes a lot of money to say that war is supposed to be made of money.

The arrows are especially expensive.

It was an arrow that prevented you from returning when you left the archery, which meant every time you fired an arrow, money would go out.

If you think about the price of an arrow, it doesn't cost that much, but if you use it for a hundred or a thousand people, the story changes.

A single shot will cost you a gold coin.

Compared to that, wizards and madosans don't pay for magic. You can continue to use your magic as soon as you pay your wages.

Ordinarily, I won't stir up an expensive wizard, but in an exhibition, if one burst of luck can cause mass destruction, dropping bombs every day.

Thanks to you,

“Dammit! Another bombing? ”

“Noisy eating.... ”

Ordinary soldiers, who used to think of magic as a target of fear, became accustomed to it.

“You were wearing pants at first. ”

“Who talks like they didn't lose? ”

“The wizards are stopping them anyway. If you care, you lose. ”

Even when the first shot falls, the soldiers are terrified and do nothing.

Some soldiers were killed on the run.

Well, that's all been said and done.

It is certainly frightening that the enemy has a terrifying wizard, but it is because they realized that their allies also have a wizard equal to them.

Enemy magic is scary, but your magic protects us!

Once you get used to it, magic cannot be an object of fear.

“Hey, you hear that? ”

One of my colleagues eating makes an impression and captures the atmosphere.

“What?”

“There is a secret magic that the Imperium has developed that cannot be defended by a magical shield. ”

“What?"

“Where the hell is it? ”

“There's no way. ”

It didn't make any sense.

Magic that can't be defended by magic.

“There's no way you're not gonna use that, is there? ”

In war, we kill our enemies, both by means and by means. It is a world where only the winner can have everything.

Unethical? Illegal?

A loser cannot discuss such things. You just have to accept the terms of the winner.

The nobles who grew up with all kinds of education from childhood, even I, a common soldier, don't know.

Magic that can't be stopped by magic. If there was such a thing, there was no way those who wanted victory would not use it.

“Maybe the Empire is hiding it? ”

“Why are you hiding something so good? ”

“There's a reason you haven't used it yet……. ”

“Then it's pointless. Who can't make it? ”

A serious expression lifts his face.

“Am I right?"

“Yes. Even if the Karan Empire is powerful, can you make such absurd magic?" ”

“That's right. ”

“That's right. Even if it did, would our empire still be stuck with the Fernes, no matter how bad it got with the Karan Empire?" ”

“That's right. ”

Now, looking at my comrade with a relieved expression, I pull out a small pendant from my pocket.

“Don't worry. Isn't the military power of our kingdom so powerful that even the Empire can't defeat it? All we have to do is survive. If we win this war, we'll make a lot of money. ”

Tak!

Open the pendant and look at her boyfriend's portrait inside.

“Oh…. ”

“You don't look so good on your face. ”

“Ha... Of course. Belly is the most beautiful girl in town! ”

It's even prettier than this picture. It's because the small town painter can't express all of her beauty.

“A real... magical tool to show us what it really looks like to know the beauty of our belly. ”

“Woohoo!”

“Showing off your girlfriend in the army! ”

“I'm sorry I don't have a boyfriend! ”

Around you, your companions send a jealous and encouraging glance.

You bastards.

“Have you ever heard of that? ”

“What?”

“We play amongst ourselves. ”

“Yes? Why is that? ”

“My belly has pretty friends, too. ”

“Sir, I was actually admiring you. ”

“Oh, why are you doing this? You think I saw the General's energy the first time I saw him? ”

“You're glowing today, brother. ”

Starting with my shoulders, I smiled at my motivations for rubbing my arms and legs.

“Hahaha! Yeah, you'd think so. Now, come back to our town after this war! I'll let go of your leg! ”

“Oh!”

As I listened to the cheers of my colleagues, I grabbed the pendant in my hand.

“When this war is over... I will marry her for the money I earned in it. ”

It was a moment when I said this with a very serious face and voice.

Tsk, tsk!

“Huh?"

You hear something breaking.

And what you're about to see is a silver object with a blue glow.

“What is that...? ”

Kwajic!

Ji?

# 58 Their Reason: A Villain's Reason

“Yes? Why not use Mado bombs? ”

“Yes.”

Lord Leah said I sighed.

“Don't you know that? ”

“You might not know! ”

The moment I saw Sir Leah shouting so confidently, I was speechless.

“You've grown.”

“It's better to pretend you don't know, than to be ridiculed. ”

Shame was a lack of pride.

It made me wonder if I was wrong because I was so right.

Compared to the past, it is truly the development of the eldest.

“Then I should let you know. ”

“Yes, tell me about it. ”

Nothing is as meaningless as making fun of someone without a shyness.

“The reason we don't use the Mado bombs we developed last time is to increase the efficiency of the bombs. ”

“Improve efficiency? ”

“Yes. They don't know about our bombing of Mado. ”

Lord Leah frowns and grimaces.

He looks like he's thinking of something.

Oh, my God, Lord Leah is thinking!

Fool was a disease that healed over time!

“I think something nasty has crossed my mind. ”

“It's the mood. ”

A knight.I have a good feeling.

“I'm more curious about this now, Lord Ast. ”

“Yes, Lord Leah. ”

“Lord Ast said the enemy doesn't know about our bombing of Mado, but it doesn't make sense, does it? ”

“What doesn't make sense? ”

“Their vanguard was wiped out by Ser Ast's movers, wasn't it? ”

“Of course.”

“And what I used at the time was the horse bombing. ”

“I did.”

“Then why don't you know? ”

Lord Leah was naive.

“Lord Leah, if you will. One of Lord Leah's forces has been wiped out. ”

“Yes? Suddenly why……. ”

“For example, literally. Don't even think about it. ”

“Yes……. ”

Seeing Sir Leah nodding her head, I continued.

“That unit was attacked by an enemy and defeated. By the way, the surviving commander said to Lord Leah, Ser Leah! The enemy is serving the dragon! We tried so hard and tried so hard, but it was devastating in a single blow to the Dragon's Breeze! ”

“Yes?”

“What would Lord Leah think if he told you that? Do you believe him, or do you think he's lying to you? ”

“That's ……. ”

“Usually you think you're fooling yourself. It seems like an act of justifying your defeat and trying not to be punished with a ridiculous lie. In the case of Sir Leah, the other merchants will say that they are making fun of Sir Leah. ”

“Why are you putting up my case at the end? Even for me, I don't believe a dragon attacked me! ”

I think Lord Leah can deceive you enough.

I'll have to milk it with you later and try to deceive you.

“Something like that. We know that, so think of it as someone else's. When the vanquished come, the enemy uses magic that can't be stopped by magic! 'Do you want to believe me? ”

“That's ……. ”

“Of course you think it's a lie. Of course, we'll be careful. It could be real. But if the enemy never used such magic, would he believe it? ”

“You wouldn't believe me. ”

“Yes, that's the goal. Mado Bombardment can be used at important moments. We don't need it right now, so we need to create a sense of safety. ”

“Safety insecurity? What the hell was that? ”

“Well, for example, there's an old wagon. It's a very old wagon that's been used for over a decade. There's a creak when you get on it. But it didn't fail. Sir Leah, would you like to take a ride? ”

“Why do you need to ride it? I could buy a new one. ”

You were right. It's better to buy a new one than to ride around in such an unsafe one.

“But what about an ordinary farmer? Do you really want to buy expensive wagons? ”

“That's ……. ”

“I don't think so. A decade's worth of use means a decade's worth of effort. It's been used by a third party for 10 years, but it's been used by a third party for 10 years without any problems. ”

“What difference does it make? ”

“It's simple. I've spent 10 years with no problems, so I can write today and tomorrow with no problems. Common sense says it's not a safe wagon, but I believe that nothing has happened so far and nothing will happen today. ”

“Belief that there will be no threat... Is that a lack of safety?" ”

“Yes! Leah, you got it so quickly! ”

“Do I really have to say that? ”

Lord Leah is filled with complaints, but there is nothing I can do. Just a year ago, Lord Leah was a fool.

And I'm not saying not right now, of course.

“Just use the Wizard Bomb against your enemies is enough. If we keep that up for a month or so, we won't think there's a special magic bomb in the empire. ”

“Yes, I think so. The Stragglers will think of it as an excuse to justify their defeat. Or do you think the wizards couldn't stop magic because they couldn't keep up with their preparations? ”

“If you think so, drop a bomb on your head and you'll get the best efficiency. ”

“As expected, Sir Ast... ”

Lord Leah looked at me with trembling eyes.

Was he impressed by this perfect tactic of waiting aesthetics?

You shouldn't think too much of me.

Lord Leah is not my type, but it bothers me that the family is good.

It must have been hard for you to put together something similar the last time!

My taste is simply to live in an ordinary countryside, with no hidden past, no secrets of birth, and no unusual children like the warrior or the Demon King!

But this whole idea,

“You're wicked.”

It was Kimchi soup.

Kyaa! I shot kimchi soup in a place without kimchi!

“Yes?”

“I didn't even think about it. ”

This is a little, no, a lot unfair.

“Isn't it too much to say that I'm evil because Lord Leah is a fool? ”

“... Lord Ast has spoken ten times as much right now. ”

“I told the man who tried to bring a more definitive victory to his allies, but you should listen to this accusation. ”

“Didn't you treat it the same way before you said it? ”

“Eh……. ”

On second thought, I think so.

I didn't expect such a sharp counterattack.

To Lord Leah!

“Huff... It's too big. ”

“Someone must think Lord Ast raised me. ”

“Astonishment was a thing of character. ”

The princess appeared to Lord Leah shortly sighing.

“Your Grace, what does that mean? ”

“As it is. ”

In a relaxed footstep, you handed me a folded piece of paper that ignored Lord Leah.

“Here's the paperwork to authorize the operation. Check it out."

“Yes, I understand... Crazy?”

“Foot!”

The moment the paper was unfolded, the swearing fluttered by itself.

I stared at the princess as if she was funny.

“Can I fold a piece of paper with the name written in it in half? ”

What I thought was merely a servant handed over by the military was the imperial seal.

That means this letter is in place of the Emperor's words!

It was a dangerous thing to be caught in the back of your head just because you didn't take good care of this paper.

“I can't help it. ”

“What if I do? ”

“Is this it?”

Shrug-

It was the Queen Dowager's words that a lowly nobleman like me should not do by slitting her throat with his thumb.

Oh, thank you so much. Thank you. I just want to hit one!

“I see.”

But at the first strike, it is a death sentence.

I acknowledge it and endure it with great patience.

Well, the paper itself was a dangerous species, but I liked the content.

“Neat.”

It was a strategy that would never permit an ordinary king, but it was also a bit like the Empress Dowager's father.

“The emperor was curious, so try to solve it. ”

“Yes, Your Grace. ”

The Emperor's permission must have fallen. Let's start now.

“I will make my army a symbol of fear. ”

The Imperial Army began to work hard to create such a great General, Relligius Luisa.
