Sevens

- Beim has no king, no nobility.

It is the capital of merchants and adventurers, a capital that kept growing. For this reason, there are still remnants of it where the walls used to be.

Residents of Baim who abandoned the peripheral part and retreated. In the harbor, there were also figures of merchants loading their own ships with property and fleeing.

Many people in the harbor were fussing about seeing the barbarism of the soldiers in Bansaim and letting them aboard the ship.

"Give us a ride too!

"It's my ship! Leave the port already!

"You bastard!

The confused harbour leaves many ships one after another. Some of them fell obliquely, unable to withstand the weight of the loads loaded. Some ships have fallen in a hissing port involving other ships.

The confusing Beim was just a hell of a picture...

- Tanya, out of the guild in the East Branch, was fighting the Bansaim soldiers who entered Baim when they wore their own gear.

Soldiers holding spears and shields and waiting for Tanya with the support of archers. The look was frightening.

"Ko, this woman!!"

It wasn't a boulevard, it was a unit that was moving for looting. Soldiers who are not many and are not much strength if you try Tanya.

"Sweet"

Run vertically through the building and land in their dense spot avoiding the arrows of the soldiers. When he made his own enclosed shape, Tanya laid her hands on the ground.

"Hey, what!

"Oh, my legs float!

When the soldiers floated in the universe, they were making their feet jittery. I couldn't even stop waving my weapon, and I was circling in the air.

To them like that, Tanya slashes and tears her neck with a dagger pulled out of her hips. A dozen troops were knights and soldiers slashed in the neck and wiped out. When they all stopped moving, their bodies fell to the ground.

Tanya looked around with a mask on. A frightened Beim resident watched Tanya from where he entered the alley.

"Get out of here now. Go through this street and go for the heart of Baym."

That's all I said, I ran again and climbed the roof running through the building walls. Adventurers and soldiers were fighting around. But the resistance hasn't come together either. I didn't expect to fight inside Baym.

Tanya looked around and had finished when she found the soldiers of Bansaim who had come through the adventurers she was fighting. I saw there were other sweepers fighting, but it sounds like the inexperienced and powerful were knocked down by the Lyells.

"You can't beat me."

Baym, who was not at a level that he could manage with his personal skill, but many of them, individually, were superior. But you didn't know too much about the war.

To get here, there was even a flow to start negotiations in view of surrender. But Tanya narrowed her eyes.

The neck of Baym's merchants and his escorts, who went out to negotiate, was exposed to the street. It would be Bansaim's intention not to negotiate.

"This... this! - Huh!"

As Tanya moved off the spot, an arrow stabbed her where she was standing. Arrows stabbed deep into the building are released simultaneously several.

It was the knights of Bansaim who would move to jump over the building.

"I found him, a guy named Sweeper."

"You're gonna be handy, aren't you?

"I'll cover you. It's troublesome how the little lords are eaten. We'll crush it early."

It was as if the threesome, which saw Tanya only as a prey, was obviously different from the enemies they had been dealing with. Against three skilled knights, Tanya pulls a knife out of her waist and throws it as she rushes out.

One plays the knife with a sword, but the sword is shattered. As soon as the knight abandons his sword and leaves, the knife slams through the roof of the building and falls.

"That was terribly heavy. Is that your kind of skill? These guys have a lot of really weird skills."

Knight pulling out a spare dagger. A knight with an arrow. Tanya decided to be ready under the mask.

"I won't let skill-building go any further."

The three knights were laughing at Tanya's words like that. Tanya was going to jump when she saw a gap.

"You're really funny about the Baim guys. Sure, we're skilled... but it's not like we're special."

Tanya steps in looking at the knights in front of her.

Skills of manipulating gravity - A knight surprised by the speed of Tanya, lighter in weight, was slashed with each sword by a knife weighed by Tanya.

Remove a bag of small chunks of iron from your nose and shake it. Throw it directly over a knight with a bow, it gets steeply heavy and a small chunk of iron pours down on the knight.

And a knight with a dagger was slashed by Tanya.

You're strong, aren't you?

"Damn, you can afford to have your allies hit"

Tanya was preventing it when her opponent was continuously slashed by Tanya.

"An ally? An idiot. Those guys were a pain in the ass for me, too. You knight, you bow-headed bastard, you busty son of a bitch... you got in my way."

The opponent's power was increasing, and no matter how heavy the knife was, the opponent was playing that attack. A dagger slashes and rips Tanya's mask.

"Oh, you look so cute."

But Tanya puts a kick in his opponent's abdomen. A knight who was relieved to be wearing armor, Tanya's kick broke through the armor and ate deeply into his opponent.

Tanya sits on the spot watching the person spit blood and blow up. While looking around to see if there are any enemies.

"I can't fight that long anymore"

When he groaned remorsefully, he started moving back to the guild -.

South Baym.

I was in that office, restructuring my troops and doing my work, and Monica told me. Nowem had also come to the room and had come to an important phase.

"There are already runaway merchants starting to come out in Baim. They were able to cross the wall, and now they're stuck inside a wall that protects the decorated center. There's a city war going on, and both Bansaim and Baim have done a lot of damage."

Together, the army was about to reach 400,000. Most of all, less, given pure force. Still, it was a sigh of relief for me that both sides were fighting the mud.

"... are you seriously going to kill them all? Baym doesn't seem to have a policy on whether to resist or escape."

Buying time to let them get away, not even the wind. They're fighting because they're on their way. Surrender is unacceptable. That's what made Baim's soldiers a dead soldier.

Bansaim won't be unharmed either.

Monica looked at me more seriously.

"Baim's leadership is unlikely to be able to play that role. Originally, it was supposed to keep your head down from the other side, but Baym was broken through the wall and confused before the report of this victory arrived."

Baym was brittle than I imagined. Depending on what you do, you may have been able to pull Bansaim out. That's all I had, but I felt taught if I was brittle up there, I'd be so brittle.

The third generation in the treasure ball was laughing a little.

'... Operation Scorched Earth. I wish I had evacuated the people of Baim somewhere in a few months and brought out all the food and possessions. Surely the next few years - no, you'll need time to get back to normal with five, ten years. Still, we can rebuild. Bansaim has problems replenishing and is managing to fight with looting in Baim. It would have been interesting if we'd run away and let the adventurers lurk in the labyrinth.'

Bansaim serves no purpose, and the food problem reduces its power and makes it uncontrollable. Indeed, it is valid. The seventh generation is also nodding.

'Well, if, and so on, it's impossible. We will create a situation where we can cooperate with the surrounding area, or we will be prepared to protect it alone. I'm just stunned by Baym, who doesn't think about defense, while making choices that don't rely on others.'

The third generation is in the opinion of the seventh generation.

'Well, we're the ones who kept the neighborhood from getting help...'

He laughed, saying things like that.

Nowem, look at me.

"Dear Lyell, what will you do? If you abandon Baym like this, any of them could bring Bansaim's troops to South Baym."

It's only a question of where to fight. Even if we caged in South Baim, the difference in numbers would be a terrible situation. You can't say to boulders that you beat an army opponent in Bansaim with a widow, etc.

I saw Monica.

"You recruited volunteers around. How much did we get together?

Monica tells me without changing her expression.

"You didn't have many people volunteering to see how terrified you felt. It won't reach a thousand."

It doesn't even fill the holes in the soldiers we lost fighting the Breads.

"Once the troops are restructured, I'll make them head to Baym. But there's a stopover before that. Send in a separate team first. It would be best if we let them fight under our command."

I lean down.

And I was wondering how much more of a pile of corpses I could build would reach Ceres.

When Nowem looks at me.

"What will Master Lyell do?

I'm on schedule. As planned...... head to the Redant Fortress.

"My plans are somewhat crazy, but I'm still ready. We will take the nobles and their soldiers who have helped us enter the fortress of Ledant."

- Several ships arrived at the port of Beim, where the fighting continued.

There were no signs of people around, they were terribly scattered and Vera, who saw how it was, did not think of it as the port of Baym once was.

"You're going to get so bad."

It was Nowem who stood next to Vera and watched the soldiers come up to the deck. Soldiers - The Valkyries had a slight difference in appearance. Still, wearing blue armor is no different.

Vera was in a complicated mood when she saw the Valkyries created from demons who once tormented herself.

"I can't believe that Trident Cesarpent looks like this. These kids, I know they're strong, but is it enough to push back Bansaim?

Nowem smiled at Vera.

"That's hard. An equal number would be fine, and you can fight even a few times that, but hundreds of thousands of them won't make it a fight. But..."

Nowem was among the Valkyries, especially bringing the outstanding No. 3. However, number three looked very nasty.

"Don't be ridiculous. Why am I the only one over here...... I wanted to go to the Redant Fortress with your husband. Instead, I should carry your husband to the Redant Fortress. Ha, I'm not motivated anymore"

Vera would have a headache if she saw number three sitting on her knees like that.

"You're really good, aren't you?

Nowem is laughing bitterly too.

"Yes, that's for sure. Besides, the Bansaim soldiers who entered the interior of Baym can't act together. If we fight a hundred times more than we deal with 10,000 people in one go, we won't lose."

Aria also came out on the ship. I'm ready and I'm wearing armor.

"Wow, there's smoke coming up from all over there. So, we're normally supposed to help the Baim soldiers around, right?

Miranda also came out from behind Aria.

"It's not easy to say. I have to show you that I'm on your side. Why don't we go to the East Branch first? So we have to explain the situation so that the soldiers of Baym don't attack us."

Fewer than a thousand separate teams were brought in by several ships.

But the aim was to help Baym and buy time until Lyell came to lead the squad.

Miranda lifted her hair in fright and watched Baym with her jito eyes.

"You could have endured more. Thanks to you, we couldn't get much rest."

Beim collapsed faster than he could have imagined, leaving Lyells to send in a separate team. Originally, we were supposed to fight a more exhausted Bansaim.

Vera looks at her face like that.

"The ship will return to South Bame as planned. And don't lose until Lyell gets here."

Nowem was laughing a little at Vera's words like that.

"What?

"No, I just thought Master Lyell got a good man. And this one is fine, and Master Lyell has no problem. By now..."

The Lyells nowadays...

I was infiltrating the Redant Fortress in the guise of an injured soldier wearing elite troop armor.

Looking around, the soldiers posing as wounded soldiers look up, just like me.

"You did a good job with the Associate Baron. Or the kind of attitude you thought the elite troops would lose...... were the defectors coming back first?

When I stood up and took the weapon I brought in, Baldoor was on guard around me.

"Dear Ryer, I am too calm. This is enemy territory. Besides, we don't have 500 people."

He entered the Ledant Fortress, playing defeated and fled back. Baldoor was nervous.

Mr. Maxim, who entered in the same way, slaps Baldoor on the shoulder.

"Don't be so nervous. Lord Lyell is good at this. I'm really glad I didn't turn to the enemy."

I'm laughing, but I honestly can't be happy with that assessment. I just saw the entrance when I pulled out my sword.

"Oh, excuse me. Apparently, it might have been read."

What was gathering in front of the door were the soldiers of the armed Bansaim.

Mr. Maxim takes the spear and Baldoor pulls out his sword as well. The door opened as the soldiers brought in took their weapons.

"... I've been waiting for you, Lyell Walt. No, would you prefer your lord? Or is it?"

It was General Blower who was pushed to head the Redant fortress who came into the room with a round waist.

"I also didn't know anyone who was about to meet would bother going out"

Within the treasure balls, the third generation was impressed.

'Oh, you're a lot of people around your head. No, did we get off guard? I'm in trouble because this is the only way to get out of here.'

With my power now, it would be possible to get through this. However, the opponent has shrugged his shoulders over his round hips.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry I'm showing motivation... but I want to surrender. Troops are already outside, aren't they?

I turn my gaze to the armed men across the door. General Blower was putting his hair on and giving instructions to back off.

"Excuse me. I'm really not following you. Well, if you'll accept surrender, most of the strength of the fortress will come under Lord Lyell's command."

"Almost?"

"... no, I don't have any credibility. There are guards. I tried so hard to restrain him."

Hella, but this man...... The third generation seemed interesting.

'Wow, I've been selling myself in. No, do you mean you know exactly what your situation is?

When I laid my sword, I saw General Blower.

"When you betray Bansaim and come under my command?

General Blower fingered his cheek.

"Isn't that what this is all about? 'Cause it looks like he was using the associate baron to make a lot of moves. I mean, you're really afraid, there's no escape route anymore, right? If you can't win or lose, you have to choose a third option."

Even if General Blower beats me, General Blower has no future. There is naturally no future if we lose. If it's stuck, it means it's coming down to me.

"... ok. Accept it. I just need you to work fast."

To my words, General Blower nodded.

"Fine. Tell them the Redant Fortress has fallen."

- Told you earlier, I felt a little defeated.
