"Hmm, is this what it's like for now? Vargas, this is the last time you'll be able to surround the position with a wall, right?
"Oh, that's it, Admiral. Penetration, but it'll be enough for now."
I came to the Memento interception point, and I decided to consolidate my protection for the first time.
We created a position about a few days south of Fort Einlad.
That's three, too.
Originally a hill, Fort Einlad was built using its hill height.
Its Fort Einlad adds to the height of the hill and is surrounded by [the walls of Atmos].
I believe that defense is considerable.
And made three positions south of its Fort Einlad.
This one is surrounded by [the walls of Atmos] in the same way, although there were no hills or anything else.
It would be amazing simply to call it a 50m high wall.
Why did you make the three so we could cover each other?
There is a question of how we can buy more time when more troops from the Memento family are pushing us over.
The Archbishop of the Church requested that the Arbitration of the Alliance of the Three Nobles be conducted, and in fact now the Archbishop went south to fulfil his task.
But we don't know if it's going to happen soon.
Maybe the Memento family will attack as they are without realizing it.
Or even if the Church speaks to the Three Nobles, it may not be able to gather by the end of this year.
Either way, there was no guarantee anywhere that the Memento family would stop moving quietly.
So we have to be prepared for that.
This would mean that we would have to buy time until talks by the Trinity Alliance took place.
And the important thing is that this force should not be attacked and lost.
Basically if you cage castles, you can barely buy time without reinforcements coming from the outside.
So it was decided to create multiple positions and be prepared so that reinforcements could jump out of other positions if any of them were attacked.
"I'm anxious. Are you sure you're okay?"
"What's the matter, Admiral?
"No, you'd be happy to have a position to consolidate your protection, Vargas. But can this position really stop the Memento family from attacking? Once I think about it, I'm anxious and I can't help it."
"Oh, my God, you're so weak, Admiral."
"... well, you weren't there when I fought Pessi? Back then, I was caged in a rapid-build position, and I thought you were really gonna die, right? How hard it was to hear that Carlos was coming to reinforcements many more days ago, even though it was like a kiln roast in Urk's [black]."
"Well, I certainly wasn't there. But at that time, it was a position made of [wall architecture], wasn't it? I'm building a position in [Atmos Wall] higher than that this time, so isn't that okay?
"No, there's no way the top magic the Memento family has is weak. As the three noblemen, we are now at the vanguard of the struggle for hegemony. I'm not anxious. I envy Vargas."
"Well, you might be worried about paying attention, but you can't help freaking out that much about someone who hasn't even come yet"
"It's best if you don't come. You're still coming this way, the Memento family. You're taking longer than I thought."
"Yeah? No, isn't this it? I'm telling you, Admiral, we Barca are moving pretty fast, aren't we? Normally, other armies are slower."
"Is that so different?
"Oh, I don't think so. Some of them would have stretched their roads through Fontana territory. Perhaps many times faster than other noble armies? No, I don't know."
The Memento family is checking every move.
We're getting closer and closer to this interception point.
But that speed was slow.
Sooner, I thought we might get here and get into a state of engagement.
But it didn't.
The Memento family moved slower than I thought.
Vargas said that we in the Barca were moving too fast.
Is that really how it happened?
Watch the information you get again.
Thank you. The Memento army sometimes travels about 15 kilometers a day.
Although it is wide depending on the day, its distance traveled will not more than double.
Does that mean that roughly 15-30 km is the military's moveable distance?
I thought it might be too short, but maybe Vargas is right about that.
Speaking of which, I remembered that the first time I fought the Wolk family, the opponent moved slowly.
"... for once, why don't you go check it out with your own eyes?
"What? Hey, what's up, Admiral? You think I'm going to see the Memento army?
"Oh, yeah, Vargas. If it's gonna take a while, I was wondering if I could actually go see the Memento Army."
"... you know, this is insane, Admiral. I mean, I can't. The Mementos are coming this way through other noble lands. I mean, the other way around. If you want me to go see the army of the Memento family, the Admiral will have to go through the aristocracy, too. You're gonna be stopped at the barracks."
"Sekiguchi... Right, sure. Is it hard to get through all the checkpoints on the way to reconnaissance safely? But it's okay, Vargas."
"Oh, now what are you going to do, Admiral?"
"The only place of detention is on the ground. Then we'll be fine if we don't get through the ground. I'm flying out of the sky."
When I told Vargas that, Vargas nodded with his hands on his head.
But you're never wrong about what I'm saying.
It is possible to travel without having to go through a troublesome post.
Thus I set fire to the vehicle I had brought from Vulcania.
