Shinigami ni Sodaterareta Shoujo wa Shikkoku no Ken wo Mune ni Idaku

─ ─ During the sight of the Imperial Mekiara Shaim Castle

The view outside from the Mekian windows is covered in snow like cotton wool on one side. The sunlit snow was radiant and transformed into a more spectacular space during the sight.

"Mr. Amelia. Thank you for your time.

To Amelia kneeling, Sofitea put in words of labor.

"Words without body. But this Amelia, she was unconscious."

Lara, who refrains next door from making that statement, moves herself.

"Unconscious? That's weird. Did you hear it was over at the top?

According to a report from Fukuru, the Red Knights were devastated by a brilliant ambush. I don't care if it's damaged or not, you can say it's minor. It doesn't make Amelia unconscious and mouthful.

"I also hear that this operation was excellent. Amelia Thousand Shots, I will not allow you to speak in vain in front of the Holy Angel!

Lara flies her gaze at Amelia like she shoots dead.

"It's not a nasty statement. Even though I ran into one of the Empire's three generals, Felix von Zuga, it didn't come true."

Amelia, with her face up, was giving a peek at the color of remorse.

"Oh, I wouldn't mind at all if it were about that. The opponent is Sir Zuga, who leads the Ethereal Knights. I don't think it's easy to kill, either. Instead, I just want to compliment you on living well and returning safely. It's about Amelia, so I assume you did quite a bit of information-gathering, didn't you?

Felix von Zyger has many mysteries among the three Reich generals. Doesn't really show up on the battlefield, too. There is no way Amelia, who is a thousand people, would fail to gather information on the opportunity of a thousand encounters.

And Amelia nodded instantly.

"Yes, of course."

Sofitea smiled and showed Amelia.

"Then you don't have to worry about anything. Amelia's kung fu is such a wonderful thing. Let them reward you. Now take a rest."

"I am deeply grateful to the Holy Angel for his care"

Amelia stood up softly and thanked him after a glance.

"─ Phew. Mr Lara, as I said, Mr Amelia would have played a brilliant part, wouldn't she?

"Ha, I'm just impressed with the wisdom of the Holy Angel"

Lara has bowed her head deeply. Silk and silver hair like silk thread falls from the shoulders.

"There's nothing out there for you to say that much. By the way, I heard the Knights of Heaven and Yang moved out?

"As the Holy Angel said, we are receiving reports that we have entered a state of engagement with the Second Army"

"Really...... by the way, from Mr. Lara, which way do you think the armaments will go up?

A moment's silence surrounds you during the sight.

"─ I hear the commanders of the Second Army are brilliant, but they still think they are the Knights of the Ten and Eighty-Nine Tianyang. In the first place, there's too much difference in overall force strength."

Lara said forcefully. Sofitea also agrees on that point. The courage with which we have supported the central front in only one army is commendable. Lara's right, I guess she's a good commander. If it's going to happen, I'd like to welcome you to the Saint Shore Army with the thanks of a third hand.

But the regular army doesn't have to know, and the minutes are just too bad for Heavenly Yang's Knights opponents.

"Are you saying that the Imperial Army has finally started putting its back on?

"The Imperial Army has been losing lately here. Still, it doesn't change the overwhelming advantage situation, but I guess there are some things you think. Perhaps from the timing, there is no mistake."

Sofitea sighed slightly as she attached her right hand to her cheek.

"That's troublesome. Exactly if we intervene any further, we may find out who realizes our existence"

The Imperial Army is not stupid either. There is also an intelligence unit called Yangtze. Sooner or later, you will find out that the enemy who ambushed Fort Astra is the empire of Mekia. or so, it is not a good idea for the identity to be public now. It takes a lot of time and preparation to get things straight with the Imperial Army.

But there is also the possibility that if the Second Army is defeated, it will march straight to the King's Capital. When that happens, the continental unity of the empire will naturally become realistic in Russia. Even as a Sofitea, I'm in trouble with judgment.

"The Saint Shore Army is ready to go out at any time. How would you like it?

To Lara's words, the Kingsguards standing at the wall knelt down in unison.

"─ I will observe this time. No matter how foolish King Alphonse may be, he will just have to move the First Army in this situation. What a strange story, let's pray for the victory of the Royal Army to the goddess Citresia"

"As the Holy Angel wills"

Lara praised Silver with her shining left hand on her chest.

─ ─ Between the sights of the castle of Fithleticia, Wangdu

When the sun plugged to the top of the sky.

During the sight, it was surrounded by a vibrant atmosphere.

"Sire, do you still not understand what I have said so much?

Cornelius takes a step forward with a grieving look on his face.

"It's awful, Grandpa, don't make me say the same thing over and over again. The First Army can't go anywhere. Besides, we gathered the surrounding guards and sent them to reinforcements."

As for Alphonse, I was also against mobilizing the guards. If there are fewer guards, the security will be disturbed every second. And disturbances in security cast a shadow on economic activity. Still, I thought it was better than moving the First Army, so I gave them permission. If the First Army goes to reinforcements here, it is the main fall.

"That being said, it's only about six thousand. In the news of the early horses, the Knights of Tianyang are forty thousand. Together, we hear a total of 70,000 large armies. The Second Army, by contrast, is roughly 20,000. Even with reinforcements, the difference in numbers is obvious."

Seventy thousand and twenty-six thousand.

Indeed, Cornelius is right, the difference in numbers is historical. But...

"Isn't it the military's responsibility to do something about it using strategy and tactics? In the first place, it's strange to think we can always fight in five minutes."

"Sire, things have limits. That would also be possible if there was a slight difference in power. But this time it's beyond that limit. The opponents are the Knights of Tianyang, led by the Third Reich General. I don't think it's going to go through some strategy or tactics."

Cornelius' blood-running eyes captured Alphonse. A twitch and sweat seep into the force of what I don't think is an old man over seventy.

"... but didn't the Seventh Army overshadow the overwhelming difference in force and let the Red Knights win? How do you explain this?

"Think of that as an exception. It's not something that anyone can accomplish, and even if you tell me to do the same thing, it's not something that I can imitate."

Alphonse screwed Cornelius.

"Grandpa, that's not the statement of those who stand at the top of the Royal Army. So we award Paul the Marshal, demote Grandpa to Senior General, but still good?

A twitch occurred from the Kingsguards present here. At the same time their gaze concentrates on Cornelius.

"I don't mind if you allow me to launch the First Army."

Cornelius, kneeling on the spot, has bowed his head deeply. I didn't think I'd agree. Alphonse rushes to open his mouth.

"Forgive me. This is bullshit."

"─ Your Majesty, I would like to make this clear at this time. If the Second Army is defeated, the Farnest kingdom will perish, a future not so far away. The history of the kingdom, which lasted about six hundred years, ends in King Alphonse's day."

Cornelius, with his face up, said away with no cowardice. That equals saying that the kingdom will perish because of itself. Blood rose all at once on Alphonse's head.

"All of them. Even Grandpa, what he says now deserves to die!

Alphonse forcefully snatched his sword from the Kingsguard he would refrain from beside, poking his cut at Cornelius' throat. The nearby guards are turning right and left at this. The only one who hasn't moved is Cornelius with a cool face.

"Death is more about preparedness than originally. I do not want the kingdom to perish, nor do I want to see His Majesty - Alphonse Fong - standing on the headstand. Please take care of it on this occasion."

With that said, Cornelius places his hips sword on the floor and slowly closes his eyes. Alphonse, who was staring at him, lowered the sword he was poking at without power.

"─ Okay. The rest of us lose. I can't talk anymore. After that, do as Grandpa likes. As a result, even if the kingdom perishes, there can never be resentment."

Now. Close your eyes. Gently slap Cornelius on the shoulder. Alphonse will never forget the sight that spreads in front of him.

Where a glimmer of tears falls zero on the cheek of a man once known as General Changsheng.

When the main door between the sights was opened, Cornelius emerged in a slow foothold. Confirming his appearance, Ninehardt called out as he approached early enough.

"Marshal, is the end... something going on between the glances?

Ninehardt noticed that Cornelius' eyes were strangely reddish.

"─ Hmm? Ninehardt... nothing the Lord cares about."

Cornelius wiggled his right hand as he rubbed his long white beard, saying he had no problem.

"Really... how was the tail, by the way?

"The First Army will be ready to launch more than this. Yes, tell everyone."

"So?"

"Your Majesty has entrusted me with all future exploitation."

Cornelius smiled nicely as he looked somewhat tired.

"That was it!

I just thought it would be hard to convince Alphonse that this is a delightful miscalculation.

"This time I am in command. The number of soldiers mobilized is 40,000. The remaining seven thousand will be entrusted to Admiral Lamberto as the King's capital defense. Fly the First Army Flag to the King's Landing."

"Ha!!
