Shinwa Densetsu no Eiyuu no Isekaitan

Episode 12: The End of the Journey

North section of the Spirit King Temple (Frieden).

Only the Lady Witch was allowed to enter the realm - the Baptist Palace.

There was a glowing sphere there, and there was someone staring at it jizzily.

She is a beautiful daughter with a reputation for constantly smiling, but now she has a missing look.

"What are you thinking now…… why was it the act of summoning the hero king back? Our Father God, the Spirit King. Please answer."

Creepy silence falls like being on the edge of the world.

"Would you still like to answer…"

The sighing lady witch turned her eyes to the two bronze statues that sandwiched the sphere.

Anyone who lives in this world knows, two pillars of the Grants Twelve Great God.

One is a beautiful young man's bronze statue dressed with a sword pierced into a large pond.

Leon Vert Altius von Grants, the Lion Heart King who founded the Grand Empire of Grants.

The other is a bronze statue with a right-hand sword raised to heaven.

Hert Ray Schwartz von Grants, the heroic king who built the Grants Great Empire.

"……… Your Majesty Altius, please protect His Majesty Schwartz"

Empire History May 26, 1023

There was a line of Bills near the border of the Baum small country.

Fewer than 100 infantry soldiers cross a horse received from a lady witch.

Small for the size of the army, it involves a single wolf.

Still, there is something about the sound of horseshoes transmitted to the air that makes people's minds anxious.

It's Liz who runs the lead. Beautiful red hair on the back.

Biru is the one holding on with his arms around his hips.

"We're going into the Grinda Frontier."

Tris walking next door makes a difficult face.

"The advance party is not back. I don't know what's going on over there. In about a cell (3 km), we'll throw away the horse and walk."

"... I thought your brother's hand was reaching out?

"I can't say enough that there isn't. There's no harm in being cautious here."

"Okay......"

Nodded Liz looks forward.

The streets that connect Baum's small country to Grinda's border area are made of wilderness.

A third of the border area of Grinda has become a barren land with scarce water, and although we do not know if that is the effect, the border side of the Baum small country has also become a dry zone containing dust.

A small hill built of sand, sandstone falling from a crumbling cliff.

It's a desert-like land with no trees or grass.

Liz, who abandoned her horse, began walking in the wilderness as she glanced at the soldiers.

At this rate, we'll be in the Glinda border realm in half an hour.

Hiding in the shadows of the cliff inconspicuously, Liz and the others proceed with cautious footsteps.

"Princess. The advance party is not back. You should think something happened."

"Yeah... it could be dangerous if we keep going. Shall we take a little detour?"

Climb with your hands on the rock. Move to a location where you can see the state of the border.

Whether Tris made the same decision or not, he follows silently without saying anything.

Liz smiled to reassure Biru of her anxious expression.

"It's okay. It's your uncle's territory."

That sounds like something I'm telling myself.

Vague anxiety spreads through Biru's chest.

When he finished climbing a cliff where he could see the state of the border, Tris crawled forward and stopped at Seto.

A little while later, a signal was sent to Liz.

Don't come back. I called you. That would mean there was something there.

Liz looked surprised and approached Tris.

"- Huh!?

Liz hurriedly held her mouth when her voice was so unexpected.

The only sight that has spread in front of me is despair.

You can't believe your own eyes, Liz rubbed her eyelids many times.

Still doesn't change the brutal scenery.

Liz's eyes began tearing up.

"Oh, my God..."

Ten members of the advance party were exposed to an unbroken body at the entrance to the border realm of Grinda.

You've been tortured, they're all missing parts of your body.

Behind it are 3,000 soldiers with brown skin.

He wraps a brown cloth around his head and wears leather armor that exposes his upper half of his body.

Hanging on his hips is an inner sword. He was stabbing a spear and an oval shield to the ground.

A wind blowing in the wilderness causes the tiger's crest flag to swim in the tea ground protruding at its head.

"How could a Lichtine soldier be here!

Richtain, the Duchy of the Desert.

Nationality runs out of brutal outrage.

The people of a hostile country have only two choices: to become slaves or to be killed.

This is one of the countries where slavery still exists.

Under the influence of the Grants Great Empire for years, there hasn't even been a skirmish in the last few decades.

The reason is slavery.

Because the Grand Empire had abolished slavery, it had sold the people of that country to Liechtenstein if it could not take ransom from the officers of a hostile nation that had been taken prisoner in the war, etc.

Grants Great Empire, with its broad front, is a good customer, and more importantly, it is too powerful to be foolish to attack. That's what they were supposed to think.

"The fact that they are deploying an army here means that their purpose must be eighty-nine, princess."

Tris flies a sharp gaze at the enemy army.

"It's a mystery how you know the princess goes through here. First, let's go back to Baum."

"No, you can't. I can't involve a lady witch."

"I don't think they're going to attack the Baum small country. If you attack, I will buy the anger of every country."

"This is a fine territorial invasion. Plus, against the Grants Great Empire. I can't imagine those people hesitating to destroy the Spirit King Temple."

"That is……"

Liz opened her mouth to the side of what Tris had said.

"I can't make it here, but we should break through and rendezvous with your uncle."

"Their presence here means they've broken through the Berk Fortress."

We have to pass in turn with Fort Berk, Fort Alto, to get here.

Considering the imminent arrival of enemy forces, it is highly likely that they have fallen.

"Besides, they can't stay in imperial territory forever. If time passes, the 4th Imperial Army will rush for rescue."

"If I don't show up, they might attack the surrounding villages. Baum, you might want to attack a small country."

Imagine a future in which villages and towns were burned and people ravaged, Liz grabbed her fists and slapped them to the ground, staring at the enemy army that spread beneath her eyes.

"I can't stand the fact that irrelevant people get hurt because of me."

"There's no way you can win. If anything happens to the princess..."

"It is the royal family's duty to fight for the people. Under any circumstances."

".................. Won't it give way"

"It's obvious. My name is Celia Estreya Elizabeth von Grants. The sixth princess of the Grand Empire of Grants."

There was a give up on Tris' face that sighed.

"... you have no choice. Then let me serve you."

"I'm counting on you."

Breaking the conversation, the two rendezvous with their men hidden in the shadow of the rear rock.

Liz, who stood up, also forgot to pay the dust and approached Biru first.

"This is going to be a fierce battle. Hiro, return to Baum."

"What?"

"From here on in, the load will be heavy... it's better for me not to be with you."

"No, let me fight with you"

Bilu's determination was solidified.

I've never experienced war, I'm sure my legs tremble with fear.

but there was no way I could just let her go and get away with it.

"No, you can't. Hilo has come. Turn back and flee."

Liz's eyes make her feel strong will.

Biru accidentally frightened me, but I ate down.

"It also helped you when you were in the aug, didn't it? Even this time..."

Biru with a sad expression.

Liz's expression, for a moment, turns into joy, confusion, and determination.

And frowning in bitterness, Liz spewed out her words.

"…… to be honest. When Hiro is around, I get distracted. So I don't want you to follow me."

Gatsun - and a shock ran over his head as if he had been beaten with heavy objects.

The perspective becomes uncertain. My thoughts stop.

Still, Bilu grabs his fist and desperately tries to spin the word.

There's got to be a lot to say, but nothing comes to mind.

The sooner I think about it, the more I'm in a hurry and my mouth won't budge.

Liz's hand touched Biru's confused cheek.

"Thanks for coming all the way here with me."

Liz made a grin in tears.

"The journey is over here. It was so much fun."
