Running Away From The Hero!

Ambition - Memories of a Lady (71)

# 92 Their Reason: A Villain's Reason

The Queen Dowager's barracks rushed straight after hearing from Maref, the butler's successor.

“Lost? That's the difference? ”

“It's not a big shot, but it's a critical hit. It's not uncommon for both of you to be beaten mentally. ”

“Is the rescue team ready? Five minutes have passed since we received our request for backup! ”

“Send out the fast Mados first! Use new horses or bombs to slow down your enemies! ”

“We must defend both charges! ”

Busily moving commanders and talking boards that move around on the map. It was a scene that reminded me of the frenzy of the commander coming from my previous life.

“No, is it worse than that? ”

It was a brawl to show, but it wasn't an act to show. I'm just busy.

Maybe it's too late.

No, why is this happening? The real Crown Prince wasn't a man cub, was he? Or is it true that Duke Laisha has been acting this whole time?

“What the hell is this? ”

It was a temporary barracks set up on the battlefield, even if it was a royal tent. It was bigger than other barracks, but it was not suitable for people to run around. Thanks to you, we bump into each other, dropping things off and making no fuss.

“Hello?”

The princess, who held her head and sighed, handed over a copy of the document.

“What is this? ”

“Orders.”

He lowered his head and read the contents. He ordered us to bring them to him as the two princes were gathering.

“Your Majesty, I just want to say one thing. ”

“... What? ”

I think everyone knows you're avoiding my gaze.

Well, I understand wanting to pretend not to know.

“Did you really lose? ”

“Umm... umm... ”

“ ……. ”

“Well, what is it? ”

“No, I'm not.”

I turned my head slightly red, and I felt goosebumps and decided to skip it.

“I understand. ”

I nodded my head and escaped the chaotic barracks.

“That was quick.”

The men were already prepared.

“Is that all, Aderu? ”

“Yes, General. ”

“You've seen it all. ”

It wasn't. It was soldiers trained separately in the past.

“There's no more men for this mission than they are, General. ”

“Well, yeah. ”

They can become officers or knights based on their skills and performance. They were left as soldiers because they wanted to fight on the front lines and had fatal problems with their personality, but they were more useful than those who just became knights.

They're the best when you need a few elite men.

“I see.”

I nodded my head and took a piece of paper from my chest and handed it over to Deputy Aderu.

“This……. ”

“It's an imperial decree. Go and get the princes. ”

Aderu looks at the command with his shaking eyes.

“Is there a problem? ”

“Uh, well... aren't you going? ”

Me? Of course I do.

“We should go. With the basics. ”

“Yes…? ”

I smiled at what it sounded like.

“I'm coming with you. ”

“Well, then we……. ”

“You're in charge. ”

“Neae?”

You patted Aderu's frightening shoulder.

“The Magistrates will do all the work anyway, and all you have to do is find the Crown Prince and bring him back. ”

“Ha, but! ”

“Shouldn't I lead the way? Then you, my deputy, are in charge of this unit. ”

“I, I still……. ”

I rolled my eyes and tried to get out.

“It's an emergency right now! What if something happens to the Crown Prince? ”

“Hehe!”

In times of great urgency, you have no choice but to push them out!

“Can I, can I do it well? ”

Anxious wavering eyes.

I was promoted quickly because I was my assistant, but I lacked that kind of experience. I deserved the burden of doing something as big as I do now.

“Aderu, you can do it. ”

“Are you sure? ”

“Yes, you can. You can do it. You're my deputy. Do I look like a man who would leave a deputy with no abilities? ”

“Ah, Lord Ast……. ”

When I saw Aderu looking at me with his eyes that he was moved, I was slightly stabbed with a conscience.

I'm actually wearing an assistant from the Empress... I don't care who's deputy!

“Yes, I trust you, Aderu. ”

“I understand.”

Aderu nods with a determined eye, shouting with a confident voice.

“As your deputy general, I will bring back the two princes! ”

“Yes, I'm sure you do. But don't overdo it. I'll be right behind you. ”

“Don't worry, General! ”

Aderu speaks confidently, leading the troops off.

Seeing Aderu's leaving back, I sighed.

“I'm glad you're a better handyman than I thought. ”

I don't know exactly what's going on, but I can't believe I have to save the Crown Prince with only a handful of troops. The moment I stepped on the wrong foot, it was the perfect time to die.

“Now that you've brought your horse out, let's prepare for the encounter. ”

Other than Aderu, the cavalry and Madosa troops had already set out to search. The rest are infantry and wizards.

Lead them slowly, and we'll meet the Crown Prince. Well, before you die, there's nothing you can do.

“Prepare faster! The lives of our allies depend on you! ”

As you take a deep breath and scream, the soldiers begin to run faster.

There's a vanguard right next to it.He's always busy.

“Sir Ast? Isn't that where you left off? ”

“Oh, Lord Leah, are you going? ”

Seeing Sir Leah's expression of why you're here, I glanced at you.

It was said to have been a poorly maintained Mado bombing, but Lord Leah was the one who withstood the bombing with the sword. With someone like that, it'll be a little safer.

“I'm here to protect you. Now we're short on manpower, so we're just left to lead the soldiers. ”

“Too bad.”

In the imperial court, she was the Princess of the Sword (smile), but here she was a real Princess of the Sword, or the Princess of the Sword. It's a pity I can't take such a skilled person.

“Lord Maferus and Lord Vallard are preparing. You're both excellent knights, so you don't have to worry too much. ”

Maferus and Bayad were the sorcerers in the Empress's army.

There are two Sodmasters...

“That's not good enough for both of them to move. ”

“Well... yes. ”

You're not even cheating. I think it was the right choice to send Aderu to the front.

“Will you answer my question, too? Why haven't you left yet, given the order? ”

“Oh, I gave the order to Aderu. I'm going to move with the headquarters. ”

“Yes? You gave the order to someone else? ”

“It doesn't say who's going to lead them out. ”

“No, that's ……. ”

It was such a mess that he could not write the correct order. It's hard to care about all that in a busy time.

“Lord Ast……. ”

“I just decided it was for the best. Trust my deputy, Aderu. ”

Yeah, it was the best choice.

If I find the Crown Prince, my own deputy has found the Crown Prince on my orders, so I have found the Crown Prince.

What if it doesn't work? You can just chop off Aderu's mission like a tail.

It was small if I succeeded, but I also had a reputation, and even if I failed, I was able to reduce the risk I had to take. I don't think we can do this!

“I see.”

Lord Leah nodded as if he had also acknowledged it. She sighed a lot, but she didn't say anything else, so she must have admitted it.

“Any new information, by the way? ”

Either the princes were found not to be human cubs, or actually Duke Laisha was the inverse man who lightly surpassed the Six Xs.

“Oh, there is. ”

“Are you sure? ”

I waited with a palpitation to see if the princes would say they were not human, or if Duke Lysha would find a great reversal.

And... a shocking remark came out of Lord Leah's mouth.

“Duke Laisha's forces are not led by Duke Laisha. ”

“Yes?”

It was the best reversal since the Expression Xsense. Of course, I've never seen 6X!

“W-we can't.... ”

Are we all playing on the palm of Duke Lydia's hand? Or did he wake up from his lack of cancer cell mass?

No. The opponent is Duke Lysha. You may be confined to a military coup so you can stamp your orders.

“What are you talking about? A powerful man like Duke Raisha is not leading his army... ”

One more step, one more step. As I raised my voice tightly, Lord Leah stepped back one step at a time.

“Sir Ast, calm down. Well, stop coming around. What will you do if there are rumors again? ”

“What rumors? ”

Maybe there's a rumor going around between us.

I gave Sir Leah a very cold look when she was all alone.

“Ugh... Rather, that's the face I have to make. Have you forgotten? But once there was a sound of engagement. ”

“Speak plainly. I was sent to Lord Leah's house. I never sent it. ”

Coming and going were the words to be used when both sides took out the horses.

Lord Leah, who once again had a red face on my point, screamed at the drain.

“Well, I didn't want that either! ”

“Then I don't care about the rumors, Lord Leah. So please answer my question. ”

“Really……. ”

Lord Leah stares at me for his teeth so loud, but I urge him for information quickly, and he sighs heavily and answers.

“The day before the two kings attacked, Duke Laisha……. ”

My heart beats. The way I'm talking right now, it sounds like Duke Lysha has done something!

What the hell do I have to do to win against the first prince to take the North and the youngest prince to admit she's worthy? Is it really genius, or did a senseless assault like a three-year old princess defeat a genius?

To look at Lord Leah's mouth, rattling.

“I ate too much. ”

It's been the best twist since the real Xsense.

“Yes?”

“I overdid it.”

“W-what does that mean? ”

“It's... it's been a little windy lately. During the summer months, many problems are said to occur, such as weakening the function of the original stomach and decreasing immune function. ”

“No way…. ”

I opened my mouth. It was an unexpected reversal.

“Duke Laisha collapsed overeating and couldn't lead? ”

“That's right.”

“ ……. ”

“ ……. ”

There was a strange silence between me and Lord Leah.

Wow, that was an unexpected turn. Duke Laisha didn't lead the mercenaries to victory!

No, thank goodness for that. It means that two princes are still human cubs.

“Consider the enemy an intact mercenary. ”

“That's right.”

The Kingdom of Mercia was one of the greatest military powers on the continent, although it was obscured by the great light of the Duke of Raisha. It was not strange to experience defeat once if you fight against such an enemy. Our army's victories were only won by a one-sided blow to the Mado Bomb.

“So, Ser Ast, you mustn't look down on your enemies. ”

“I know. ”

I don't think I have military talent. I was not the main character to surround and destroy 5,000 magical objects with 300 ordinary villagers. All I believe in is the only light, Duke Lydia. You cannot make bold judgments while the Duke of Lycia is temporarily restrained!

“I've got it all figured out, so don't worry. ”

“I'll believe you.”

Even with Sir Leah trusting me, I had no choice but to make the best choice I could.

And the choice is,

“Now, I will delegate the command of the troops to each commander because I don't know what will happen next." Take care of yourself unless special instructions come from the top! ”

The way Duke Laisha's army defeated the First and the youngest of the Crown Prince's allies! It was a way to give command to his men to fight on their own.
