Broken arrow. Missing blade. The setting sun's rays dye the blood-dyed Flyberg Plateau even more red. Look over the sky, a bunch of gray ravens swirling in our faces. Between the dim trees, the coveted beast is also beginning to show itself.

Their bellies will be filled enough tonight. Because the earth is covered and hidden by a body that cannot be eaten.

Olivia and the others, who left the Knights of Heavenly Yang led by Patrick, joined the Second Army at short notice. As soon as I saw a pale blonde walking in the lead, Reese breathes.

"─ It's been a long time, Liese Prusse. Since the cadet school ceremony?

"Claudia Jung! ─ Weren't you part of the First Army?

"Well, there's a lot going on. Now I'm Major Olivia's deputy."

"That's right... and you still feel like a fool with a sword"

"That's the one, it doesn't seem different to be a big head."

After staring at each other jizzily, they laugh and hug each other. Apparently, he's a classmate from cadet school. Seeing the smiling sight of the two, Brad thought of Linz and Ratz traveling to the underworld.

"Thanks to you, the Second Army was able to get rid of the predicament. Thanks so much for coming."

To Reese, who bows her head deeply, Claudia just speaks out of indignation.

"Keep your head up. It must be natural to help our friends."

"... heh. You haven't changed anything serious either. I'm kind of relieved."

"Hmm. In just a few years, my personality has changed so much."

Claudia looks uncomfortable and distracted. Lize, with her face up, had a teasing grin when she lifted her hair on her ear.

"─ I'm sorry to interrupt your nostalgic reunion, but is it time to move on?

To Brad's words, Claudia hurries to salute him.

"I'm so sorry for your loss! I'm late, but this is Major Olivia."

Some proud Claudia prompts me to reveal myself as a girl dressed in pitch-black armor. Similar to the black flag, the shoulder and chest are engraved with a large sickle and two pieces. A similar voice rose from the officers gathering.

"Be the first to see you! It's Major Olivia Valedstorm!

"It's Lieutenant General Brad Enfield. First, thank you very much for your reinforcements."

"Ha! Thank you!

"Nevertheless... Kae-yu looked like a beauty inside too, but the real thing is more than that"

Staring seriously at Olivia, her right arm is twisted. When I looked unexpectedly, at some point Reese stood next to me.

"I'm glad Major Olivia is an amazing beauty. From now on, may I call you His Excellency the Pervert?

With that said, Reese has a dry grin. I turned that way without waiting for Brad's excuse. Olivia, on the other hand, said.

"Really?"

Are you used to being called beautiful? He returns a reply without denial or affirmation in particular. I don't even seem to care what I look like, but I was more concerned about...

"What. Is Major Olivia not good at speaking respectful language?

When Brad asks with a bitter smile, he gets the look of Olivia just saying she doesn't like the bottom of her heart. Apparently, it was a star.

"Ha... because it's kind of tricky"

"Speaking of polarity, an army is a world of discipline. I always feel breathless now that I've become known as His Excellency with me. Well, sometimes it doesn't fit originally."

"Even though he's a lieutenant general? ─ Not ─ but you're a lieutenant general... hmm? He is a lieutenant general...... is that it? Is that it?"

Olivia leaning over and over again. He seems desperately looking for the right word, but doesn't seem to come out the way he wants inside.

"Huh. I don't mind a normal word when you talk to me from now on. It'll be easier for Major Olivia."

"Huh? Are you sure? Deputy Otto tells me to use absolute respect when talking to my superior officer?

Olivia says with her eyes round. "It's like a curse word," I've been adding since I'm usually included. I can tell from that mouthfeel that it is easy. It is indeed strictly forbidden to speak rudely to a superior officer beyond being an army.

However, as Reese said, it is an indisputable fact that the Second Army was saved by Olivia's troops. With that in mind, it's the last thing you need to say to your superiors.

"Deputy Otto? - Oh, the rock-head at Paul's. Sure, he's going to say every single thing. Anyway, he's like a soldier walking in clothes."

"Yes! I've always thought so too!

Olivia just looks at me when she says she's got my will. Too powerful, Brad accidentally turned against it.

"As it were, well, that's the thing. I'll let you call me Lady, 'cause it's a hassle."

"Yeah, it's okay."

When Olivia shows her white teeth and nods, Reese, with her eyebrow roots, makes an exact difference. Brad laughed niggly at her like that.

"Well, who was it that tried to twist and bend the military code a few hours ago? Surely the deputy has the right to refuse orders from his superiors or something."

"You're unscrupulous. Are there people who say things that don't even clap like that?

Reese tilts her little neck with a kyotonic look on her face. It's refreshing to be cut through so far. I guess these things have happened in the past that Claudia, who doesn't know the circumstances, is sighing like she was stunned.

"Well fine. So for the future, the lady's troops will be temporarily integrated into the Second Army. I'm sorry, but this one's been handicapped."

Twelve thousand troops left.

Majority injured.

Even though I won the fight, it's never a situation I can be optimistic about. It was Olivia who confirmed it, but it was already a decision in Brad.

"I don't mind."

Olivia just nodded that there was no problem. Brad nods back too when he sees it.

"It would be helpful if you said so - and I will deposit 2,000 soldiers with Major General Adam. Take the wounded back to King's Landing."

"Ha! I'll take care of it!

Adam, who stepped out a step ago, answers with a salute with a hall of honor. Fifty years old. He's an old strong man who can calmly capture the situation, although he doesn't do flashy work. The fact that the Second Army stomped hard is also due to his arms.

It will be possible to deal with it adequately in the unlikely event that the crushed enemy soldiers have fought back.

"After we restructure the army, we will immediately head to cover the First Army. Then start preparing yourselves."

When the dissolution is announced, each moves simultaneously. Brad spoke to Olivia trying to walk away.

"Lady."

Olivia looks back. At that moment, Brad pulled his sword out toward Olivia's neck muscle as he stepped on his right foot at the front. A flash that is in between special occasions and even a flying swallow can be cut off. Only Olivia, with her sword pointing at her, opens her mouth flat as the field freezes in an instant.

"─ What?

"... no, it's nothing. I'm sorry you turned your sword all of a sudden."

Olivia tilts her neck and walks straight out. To Olivia's attitude, which was too ordinary, those who were solidifying began to give a turning, bewildered look.

"My lord, what the hell is the act now..."

Reese also asks with a bewildered look. He suddenly slammed a blade at the man who saved the Second Army from its predicament. It would be an extremely natural reaction.

"I'm sorry to surprise you. I just wanted to make sure."

"─ Could it be that you measured Major Olivia's strength?

In response to Reese's reprehensible tone, Brad said shoulder to shoulder that he would deliver his sword to the sheath.

"Oh. But thanks to you, I was convinced. The Imperial Army is so alert to one girl."

"I can't say much because I haven't actually seen the battle... so much?

"Reese would have seen it with that eye, too. To my unleashed sword, where the lady didn't make it slight."

"Of course I was watching that... but wasn't Major Olivia just unable to move because of the sudden?

Reese's words are true. It is difficult for humans to react to unexpected events. To create a momentary void in your mind and take time to transfer your next action. Brad's sparkle is serious, and most travel to the Underworld without question. Some of them will fight back instantly without creating a void. but Olivia does not fall under any of them.

"No. I wasn't unable to move. I decided at that moment that I didn't need to move. Now the lady's eyes were firmly fixed on the movement of the sword. You knew it would stop on the brink. Look at this arm."

Brad turns his sleeve and shows his left arm toward Reese.

"My goosebumps are so..."

"My instinct is the one who's afraid of that lady. If you turn that to your enemies, no matter how many lives you have, it won't be easy enough. Death is what I used to call it."

"Even Your Excellency can't win?

Reese stares at me with a strange face.

"I don't have to think of it as a slightly deviant question than that of war being a bump between nations... but under one-on-one conditions you definitely can't win first. In the first place, the dimensions are too different"

"Whatever it takes, that's it"

"I appreciate you buying me away, but this is pure fact. What the hell kind of training ground have you been in at that young age?"

Brad, who lit a cigarette, exhales smoke in a sigh. Olivia's hindsight as she walked away felt slightly larger.
