Running Away From The Hero!

# 84 Their Reason: What a madman's Reason is

“I guess I'll just have to shoot him today. ”

Lord Ast told me I didn't hide my disgust.

“Again...? ”

Now it was a daily bombing.

Wake up in the morning and bomb.

Bomb after dinner.

Sometimes you don't sleep at night, you wake us up and bomb us.

Bomb. Bomb. Bomb. Bomb. Bombardment!

“It doesn't work, does it? ”

Lord Astor's bombing of Mado is no longer a winning strategy.

Rather, misuse has become a strategy to see and lose big damage.

Bombardment is the act of squeezing all the magic power for the wizard, Madosa, the life force.

Even if there is a Magic Recovery Potion, there is a limit to restoring Magical Power.

Madosa without magic is just a good fighter.

I may not be as useless as the wizards, but I can't fight a battle worthy of the name Madosa.

“Wouldn't it be better to relax for the big fight? ”

Madosa was a viable disease under any circumstance.

The pure firepower of the wizards is said to be more powerful in the firepower, but the firepower of the Madosa can't be ignored.

“It will be more efficient than consuming magic on unsuccessful enemies. ”

“Hmm……. That makes sense. ”

Lord Astor nodded and replied to my words.

“Then……! ”

“But the bombing continues. ”

“Yes…? ”

You said you had a point!

I couldn't understand what I was going to yell at, so I expressed my emotions instead.

“Why…? ”

Reason for persisting in bombardment that does not cause significant damage to the enemy.

Is it possible that every successful bombing you make will lead to an overkill due to the publicity that rises?

Then he was a very dangerous commander.

There is no more dangerous commander on the battlefield than the commander seeking his specialty.

I can think of an ally's life easily for my specialty.

“Don't you think I'm overdoing it for my specialty? ”

As if he had read my thoughts, Sir Ast looked at me with a bloody smile.

“Well, that's ……. ”

I had no choice but to avoid Sir Astor's gaze.

“If you think so, you're mistaken. Why would I care about a major? ”

“Then why on earth...? ”

If we don't drop bombs once a day, will we drop bombs like spikes in our mouths?

I looked at Sir Ast with an unfettered eye.

“The reason is simple. This is to make the bombardment feel normal to your enemies. ”

“Is bombing routine? ”

Is there anyone who feels bombed everyday?

No, there won't be.

It was a bombardment that claimed his life by one mistake.

No matter how many new horses there are in the enemy army, even if there is a staff ready for bombing, they will not feel bombing as usual.

“War drives people crazy. What does the word everyday mean? It's a daily routine. If the bombs keep dropping, we can say it's everyday. ”

“We can do that verbally. But it's hard to accept that a huge chunk of ice is pouring over your head. ”

“You're right. So it's bombarding until it's accepted as normal. ”

“What does that even mean? ”

Even if the enemy considers bombardment routine, it is meaningless unless the enemy's staff is broken.

“Rather, it's become routine, so the bombardment will be better prepared. The enemy wizards, the Mages, will use the staff even better. ”

Rather, I was able to create opportunities for my enemies.

“Is it true? ”

However, after seeing Sir Astor smiling with a confident expression, he could only see that he was writing evil tricks.

“I understand.”

After all, I was a soldier, and Lord Astor was the one my master, the Empress, lent me his power.

Charcoal.

When I was first in the military, I remembered Madosa, my direct supervisor, saying that I led my men and used bombing.

Of course it didn't work.

So, a day or two passed, a week passed, and the month was almost over.

“You're really gonna die, aren't you? ”

Now he's fighting back against enemies who are relaxed enough to stop the bombing and make it to the chase party.

“Be careful not to die. ”

We were marching to use bombs again today.

“Honestly, since King Raid's defeat, we're the only ones who have fought. ”

As my life went on without any results, complaints began to erupt among the maestros.

Honestly, I've had a lot of complaints, but as commander, I'll have to take Lord Ast's side.

“It will all mean something. ”

I don't know what that means.

“I understand Ser Ast has established many majors. But……. ”

“Enough. Soon it will be enemy territory. Save your words."

High altitudes impossible to detect even magic.

It has many advantages, but many disadvantages.

You need to use magic to do a lot of things, starting with breathing.

The same goes for horses.

Impossible to detect magic is a criterion on the ground. If there are enemy shamans nearby, detection magic, as well as eavesdropping, is possible.

"Sorry."

I nodded my head to the man who apologized in sign language.

I couldn't help but complain.

Continuous battles and attacks that do no damage.

The more you stop the attack, the stronger it gets and the more morale it starts to rise, but on the contrary, the less morale your allies have.

There are no human casualties yet... but I couldn't take them lightly.

After today's bombing, I'll go back and tell Lord Ast a long story.

And I had to talk about Sir Ast for a very long time, as I had planned.

No, to be more precise, I had to tell a long story about Her Majesty, including Sir Astor, and dozens of longevity.

“S, report to the battlefield. ”

To report a victory I don't know why I won.

# 85 Their Reason: A Villain's Reason

“What the hell did you do? ”

“What things? ”

I gave a naive expression to the princess who looked at me with a suspicious face.

“As expected, Ser Ast's cunning schemes have prevented the enemy from bombing Majo. ”

However, the expression had an adverse effect.

“Sir... Lord Leah? ”

A sinister trick by looking at this innocent face.

I wanted to ask him what he thought of me, but I thought he'd be shocked to hear me come back.

“That's Leah. ”

“How much have I suffered from Lord Ast? It's all the power of experience. ”

The princess smiled at Sir Leah who nodded as if she was magnificent.

“That wasn't Raah's exact judgment. ”

“Thank you, Your Majesty. ”

Excuse me, Sir Leah? Isn't that a compliment?

“Therefore, Lord Ast! Please tell us what the hell you did! ”

I sighed in Lord Leah's uplifted voice.

“It's nothing. ”

“It's no big deal. ”

“Oh, well…… ”

One of the enemy commanders was broken, and the knights and wizards who were with him became similar.

Soldiers are in chaos because of a sudden bombing!

Survival instincts came first, ignoring the commander's orders and escaping.

I told you there were more casualties.

“It's all thanks to the great Mados. ”

It was the first battle won since the last prince was defeated.

That was the last battle I won.

Earl Papais? Probably right

Earl Papais, or something like Duke Laisha, was the most recent victory.

Since then, we've been keeping our eyes on the front lines with the Mercedes who have entered the Empire's territory.

“... Really? ”

Seeing the princess again, I sighed as if it were a pity.

“Why are you sighing when you've won, Lord Ast? ”

Because I'm out of the evil scheme of that damned princess.

If I had my specialty, that damned Empress would have sent me right to the imperial court.

Earl Ast!

How unsuitable and frightening!

“Thinking about the mado masters who have suffered.... ”

I sighed.

I was going to say that, but Sir Leah was looking at me with very cold eyes.

“Lord Ast would never do that. ”

It was a voice full of conviction, like telling the truth of the world.

No, what's my image?

“Lord Leah... did I do something wrong? ”

What have you been doing?

There are so many things that come to mind, I don't know what they are for.

“My mouth is going to hurt, so I won't say it. ”

“Thank you."

That's Pandora's Box.

I thought it would be bad for the world (my) if it opened.

Tuck.

“Well, assuming they're all majors, how did they succeed in the bombing? ”

Lord Leah and I are nodding, looking at each other, and the princess lifted up her short foot and kicked my calf and asked.

“Oh, you mean that? ”

I avoided the Empress's kicking with a light gesture and told her what I did.

“I was a liberator. ”

“Huh?"

“Yes?”

The princess stopped kicking. At the same time, Lord Leah's feet stopped.

“What does that have to do with anything? ”

“Defensive misconduct? That's a death sentence, isn't it? ”

Lord Leah, who opens her mouth in horror, tilts her head in wonder.

Unlike Leah, who reacts to offence like a wise knight, I could see the Queen Dowager's personality through her appearance, curious about how she used defensive misconduct.

To be honest, she was more suited to Howling's successor than the empire princess.

“I understand the empire's technological power is at stake on the continent. Even Imperial engineers had a lot of misconduct in building the Mado bombing staff. ”

“That's right."

“But the Kingdom of Mercia, without even knowing the detailed theories about the Mado bombing, created the Mado Bombing Staff? In the same way we are? I thought the premise was wrong. ”

“Ah……. ”

“Yes?”

Lord Leah stares at me as if I were the princess who realized something.

Through his appearance, he was able to see Lord Leah's intelligence this time.

“Lord Leah, defensive misconduct + fewer horseshoe bombing staffs cannot be created. What comes out of combining the two? ”

Lord Leah threw a problem to activate his brain.

And then...

“I don't know.”

Lord Leah showed me the blank answer sheet with a very fair expression.

I was so overwhelmed that I couldn't say anything.

“ ……. ”

“Why, what's the matter! ”

I just replaced it with looking at Sir Leah with very cold eyes.

“So there is someone smuggling staff within the empire? ”

“Precisely.”

The organization hasn't created a staff yet. I was analyzing the staff, but I couldn't keep up with the Empire's technological strength.

That's why the staff used by the Mercedes was stolen from the Empire, not from the organization.

“This work……. ”

“You'd better hand it over to King Raid. ”

It was the news that the youngest prince who was destroyed by that stolen staff would love it.

“And…. ”

“You don't have to tell me, Ast. ”

The princess had a lot of bad things, but she was comfortable that she could talk well about these things.

“What do you know? ”

It was Lord Leah who looked at us and said that he was suspicious.

What should I say...? It's like the look on the faces of people looking at the protagonist KoX.

When I woke up in the morning, I was looking at a psychopath who wondered who might have died.

“Leah, the enemy has a staff that can stop Mado from bombing. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. ”

“And all of those staffs are made of defensive virgins, just like a stick that doesn't have anything to use. ”

“... Just a stick of wood. That's not even a liberty, is it, Ser Ast? ”

“So, Leah. ”

“In that sense, Lord Leah, ”

Looking at Sir Leah, who was astonished with her mouth wide open, the Empress and I pulled out our work at the same time.

“Now when the Mado bombing works. ”

“You'll lose if you don't, right? ”

“Ah……. ”

Once again, the unilateral assault of the Imperial Army begins.
