Running Away From The Hero!

Ambition - Memories of a Lady (70)

# 90 Their Reason: Nell Karan's Reason on that Day

“I think we've got another leak. ”

I can't help but frown at the words of my knight Aelt.

“Is that possible? ”

I already knew that some of the defeat had leaked information to the enemy. That's why you searched inside several times to find enemy spies.

As a result, they found spies in the Kingdom of Mercia, as well as spies in Howling, other nearby kingdoms, and even spies planted by their allies, and executed them publicly in front of all the soldiers.

And what, another spy?

“Isn't Duke Laisha brilliant? ”

The arrangement for the interior was already done. I don't have any branches left to hit the trees, so what else can I do here?

“You mean there's still a traitor among the commanders? ”

“It could be. ”

Four of the commanders who could attend the meeting turned out to be spies. Fortunately, everyone was a minor commander, but there could be more spies...

“Then……. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. As you might expect... there may be spies among the senior commanders. ”

Senior commanders knew both basic meetings and secret operations to their allies.

“Then you must destroy everything. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. ”

It was a bad thing.

It was very tiring to doubt an ally. Once you begin to doubt, there is no end, and those who are suspected become suspicious as time goes on.

If I doubt others, others will also doubt me. When one doubts another, one becomes untrustworthy, and the organization eventually collapses.

“We need to deal with this as soon as possible. ”

“We have to, Your Grace. ”

A sigh came out.

“Lost... ”

The word "defeat" was rarely used in my life…….

“I'm used to it now. ”

“This is because your fatigue has accumulated. Just a little more rest and we'll be back to the northern days.... ”

Aeelt starts speaking with a puzzled expression.

“It's just an excuse. ”

It is true that I have come to fight many battles from the north. It was also true that I came straight down without a proper rest. However, the soldiers were not exhausted enough to lose again.

I just got pushed by Duke Lydia.

“But……. ”

“Stop. Don't make me any more miserable. ”

“I'm sorry, Your Grace. ”

In my words, I bit his lips and patted his head over his shoulder.

“Everything is my fault. ”

If the strategy is wrong, the soldier loses because I made the wrong decision for the wrong reasons, the soldier is tired, and for other reasons.

Even though I knew that hundreds of thousands were dying lightly in a single word, I was blinded by my specialty and forgot about it.

“There's an old saying that defeat teaches you. ”

Now is the process of learning. We should not lose in the future as a basis for such defeat.

“Your Grace.”

Aelle's gaze that was shaking began to change.

“I'm sorry. I'm shaking. You're shaking, too. ”

Since I was very young, I've been with Aelt like a brother. I think I've been shaken up a lot because I've spent more time together than anyone else.

“No, Your Majesty. The role of a servant is to correct the owner when he is shaken. It was shaken because I was lacking. ”

“A god who lacks a monarch.... That's a good combination. ”

“I will try to be a perfect servant. ”

“I also try to be a perfect monarch. ”

We looked at each other and began to laugh loudly at what was so funny.

As I loosened the tension that had been accumulated due to defeat, I began to see things that were invisible one by one.

“There are people out there who know about our operation, except for our troops. ”

“You don't mean... a spy. ”

“Yes."

I remembered their faces for a moment.

That can't be right. It would not be possible But… if it were true, they could be the most deadly poisons.

“Even if it is related to the imperial succession, will King Athia and Lord Reid sell information to the enemy? ”

“I didn't want to think so. But……. ”

Apart from our military commanders, all we knew of our operation was the emperor who posted a report directly to his sister, brother, and contact magic tools that maintained a cooperative relationship.

“I don't think my siblings are blind to their specialty and sell their people. But……. ”

There have always been those who sacrificed from ancient times to power, not only for their people, but also for their families.

If there's a 1 percent chance, or a 0.01 percent chance, you'd better find out.

“I am preparing for three operations from now on. One is to inform our commanders, and the other is to inform Artia and Raid. ”

“Yes, Your Grace. ”

They were just informing each other of the operation so as not to affect each other's plans. It was no problem to inform them of other plans and inform them that the operation had changed shortly before it was underway.

If the enemy moves according to my plan, then we need to question the person who informed us of it.

“Dangerous missions. As few troops as possible. Survival is our top priority. ”

“I will, Your Grace. ”

Aelle personally selected a small group of troops to carry out my mission.

Mission to locate leaks. And with this mission, I was able to identify two hazards.

One was an ally commander. The other is…….

“Isn't that right, Raid? ”

It was my youngest brother, Raid Nell Karan.

# 91 Their Reason: A Villain's Reason

< This time, even the first prince's plan was wrong! What's going on? >

Throwing a rough letter into the brazier, I sighed deeply.

“What happened? I lied. ”

We were the only ones who were winning. It's gonna look suspicious.

He was the youngest prince who was younger than the Empress. He was the first prince who had the ability to listen to the master's voice, even though he was the emperor. That first prince was losing every time, and suddenly, I was only winning.

Just one chance, two coincidences. Three times I became skilled, and four times I was naturally able to win, but I won five or six times.

This is as far as I can tell. However, it was not very good for the first prince to lose in a row.

Rather than being overwhelmed by overwhelming numbers or being subjected to an enemy's unexpected strategy, it was unlikely that if all the enemies knew about their plans and defeated, they would know that someone as great as the First Crown Prince was leaking information. In fact, the first prince has carried out a massive purge since his first defeat, and has discovered many spies and publicly executed all of them. Nevertheless, if the same defeat continued, I had no choice but to doubt everyone who knew the information.

So buy it for a while. The moment I find out, she's gonna slit my throat.

“Hmm, is this a coincidence? ”

I did not have enough to see the letter of the organization turned to ash completely, so I checked the contents of this operation sent by the first prince Jin, who made powder with the iron spikes next to him.

“I knew you were smart. ”

We divided 15 people into three directions. It's not a big operation, and I'm telling you it's an ambush with the knights' maneuvers, just like I sent the Mados to drop the bombs, which is ridiculous.

A raid with knights, perhaps by a Madosa or a Wizard.

“It's a trap, isn't it? ”

Even a knight who could use a weapon couldn't fire a weapon from a distance unless he was close to the Swordmaster. No, even a sorcerer would be more difficult to attack from a distance than an ordinary wizard.

Just by looking at the destructive power, you can use more firepower in a moment than the Wizard, but after that, you are surrounded and killed. That's why wizards who can attack enemies at a distance launched an ambush, and it evolved into mado.

The first prince is so stupid that he doesn't know that....

“I hope not."

I could say that I wasn't, but I was a little suspicious when I saw Duke Lysha breaking recently.

“No, you're not. ”

Yeah. Sending in a knight was to retrieve the bait. Streets and firepower are pushed, but survival is overwhelming. He used the knights as bait to minimize damage to his troops.

“As a result... profitable. ”

I didn't take the bait.

The decoy operation at the two gates was an unknown operation, so I must have planted it somewhere suspicious.

There may be real spies, but we may have stumbled across the tight borders of the Kingdom of Mercia. However, the first prince had no choice but to doubt. If you're not an idiot, I'll try to understand why you keep losing.

It would be of great benefit to me just to be free of his doubts. I'd like to buy some more, of course.

“Now, how do I use this...? ”

If we try a little, we will not be able to turn back the relationship between the first and last prince. It's probably the best howling product.

“But not me, right? ”

1If the prince and the youngest prince are to fight, the princess must act as an intervention.

And the princess will make me.

The warped first and youngest princes will try to ally themselves with the Empress to increase their alliance, and will annoy me, the middle leg, very much. So I decided to quickly get rid of it so I don't have to do anything annoying.

I'll give you a small raise if you do that, but you should just go home and get a little less money.

I just thought I'd rough it up and figure out what to do with Duke Lydia tomorrow.

“Is Ast de Lylac here? ”

As soon as morning broke, a filthy, handsome young man was greeting me.

“Yes, Your Highness. ”

The first prince I met a while ago was still handsome.

A little, or a lot of bad luck, smiled and asked me to shake his hand, and I naturally bowed and held his hand and waved it a couple of times.

“It's an honor to see the great master who has won the battle for Duke Raisha himself. ”

“Well, is it? ”

Duke Laisha. I could hardly bear the thought of bursting out of laughter at once.

The first prince glanced at the frowning face for a moment, even though he could barely bear to smile with his thighs pinched.

“You must have suffered a lot. The opponent is just as powerful. ”

In the words of the first prince praising Duke Lysha, I quietly nodded my head.

“Yes, Your Majesty, on that day. ”

Please, I wanted to ask you to do something about this human, but seeing the princess clapping at the end of the chair and trembling, the horse went up to her throat immediately.

I just said, "Okay. ’,‘ yes. ’I have no choice but to return the first prince as soon as possible.

“Your Grace.”

“Oh, look at me. ”

He took out a well-sealed letter from his arms and handed it to me.

“I only want you, Athia, and Lord Leah. ”

“Yes, Your Grace. ”

“I should probably get moving, too. Goodbye, Attia. ”

“I won't go far, brother. ”

Although she was the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince stared at her for a moment, the Crown Princess soon smiled as she left the barracks with a man who looked like a knight.

“What brings you here in the morning? ”

Suddenly, the first prince appeared and said a funny word as if there was a grudge in my stomach and left.

“To pass it on. ”

Like me, the Great Gag of the First Prince (?), the princess let out a small sigh.

“I think he's doubting you. ”

I knew what I saw yesterday was a trap.

“Is that so?”

“Yes. More details... I hope you'll be there?" ”

1 Letter sealed with the prince's seal. This meant that the first prince, not the imperial court, wanted to proceed.

“Ast.”

“Yes, Your Grace. ”

The letter blade was removed from my arms, the wax removed, and the contents of it were removed.

“Here you are, Your Majesty. ”

“Yes."

The princess who received the letter immediately began to read the letter from the first prince.

“What is it, Your Majesty? ”

“It's not much... is it? ”

“What's that supposed to mean? ”

“Read it and decide for yourself. ”

What's the reaction to that?

I read the contents of the letter carefully.

“Sounds like nothing really matters. ”

“Isn't that right?"

The content was that the youngest prince could be a traitor, so he would unite the youngest prince and the army to operate.

“I don't think it needs to be this grand.... ”

“I know what your purpose is.... Will it work?”

1The emperor must have thought that the youngest was selling information to the enemy country to eliminate the rivals of the imperial succession. That's why you're thinking of a military merger.

It's temporary, but at the moment of the merger, the two units share the same goal. He will do his best not to doubt and doubt the Crown Prince.

“Well, if you two work together, there will be no defeat by Duke Lysha... Will that not work?" ”

“Is that so?"

The frowned princess pushes the letter into the corner of her desk like a nuisance and stands up.

“Well, whatever it takes. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Whether they merged and defeated the Duke of Lycia or failed the merger and doubted each other, it had nothing to do with us. That's why I brought up the story of going to breakfast.

“Huh……. ”

When I arrived ten days later, I had to open my mouth.

“How far are we...? Raisha Coin's cake statue……. ”

In conclusion, the first and last prince succeeded in the merger. And... he was broken by Duke Raisha again with that troop. And then it became us, or me, to be precise.
