In a dim room with closed curtains.
At the desk in the center of the room, a map of the Kingdom of Magna.
Black and white pawns line it up. - It's an on-board exercise.
I look at it alone, peeking into the face of it.
The pawns on the desk, the black pawns representing the enemy, reflect the latest based on information from the scoundrels.
- The King's Ensign. Things had changed dramatically due to King Heinrich's own run.
Second, not only the Fifth Army, but also the General Commander of the Capital Kingsguard were mobilized.
Emptying the king's capital is something bold.
Well, you don't have to care if someone occupies the absent king's capital.
As long as the PLA crushes them, they can take back as much as they want.
The King's capital does not dictate the state of war.
Again, what matters is that there will be a showdown, on the front line.
The number of pawns on the desk is roughly the same for white and black.
However, even in numbers, there is a historical difference in power between the regular Royal Army and the incoming Liberation Army.
With decent company, there won't be any wins or anything.
... Not good. Really bad. Giri, bite your back teeth off.
My liver just goes cold since I heard about King Heinrich's princely enlistment yesterday.
When I received the report, I cared about my surrounding eyes and pretended to be the wind that it was nothing.
Yes, 'You're getting interesting inside', what a twitch I made...
How many people believed in that void?
If you look at the flag as bad, there will be successive departees from the incoming liberation army.
We must avoid that.
In order to do that, we have to show you the basis on which we can win.
Almost, the military council opens.
On the spot, be it a lie, a haunt or a petten. You need to make them think you can beat them.
I remain silent, alone, and keep staring at the desk.
How much would you have done that? The sound of accidental knocking on the conn and door sounds.
"Go ahead."
Speak short and give permission to enter the room.
Waiting for that reply, it was Lily who came into her room.
Sizuk, it's military time.
"Yes."
"... did you come up with a proposal?
"... there's no way to win. There's just one way we can still win."
Yes, only one if there's a chance of winning.
At least, that's all I came up with.
This time, the enemy has cut a trump card called the King's Prince's March.
As a result, we were able to fill in the difference in troop numbers from this one. Moreover, if the king himself stood on the battlefield, the soldiers would rise in excitement.
It is also a big plus in terms of morale.
Something that's been cutting really powerful cards.
But was that card really trump card (ace)?
Wasn't that card a wild card, or a joker, not a trump card (ace)?
Joker. A card that can be the strongest and weakest by the game.
In this case, its strengths are as described previously.
And at the same time, she is pregnant with a fatal weakness for the enemy army.
Previously, as the battle death of one Konrat nearly determined the defeat of the PLA.
A card called the King's Prince can also be a clear weakness.
Then we'll have to poke it there.
"Yes, if you have eyes to win, that's one thing."
"Sizuk, what is the measure?
In response to Lily's query, I groan like a soliloquy.
"... neck hunting tactics"
That's what I answered, staring down at the black general pawn.
I walk down the hall with Lily.
We proceeded silently with each other until we reached the Great Hall where the military council was opened.
Look down at the big hall door.
Substantially the Commander-in-Chief and the Chief of Staff, so our appearance is of course the last.
Ahead of opening this door awaits the Arunya Magna and the high-ranking soldiers.
"Sizuk, are you ready for your heart?
Close your eyes and breathe slowly and deeply.
That's how I wear the mask.
I am a famous Academy actress who also escapes barefoot. Cheaters are also bright blue spicy cheaters.
Yes, a raw witch who manipulates people with verbal skill.
Come on, the stage curtain is up. Let's cut it off and show it off.
"It's okay, Lily"
Nodding at my reply, Lily slowly opened the door.
The gaze, the gaze, the gaze that pierces us entering the room.
The colors vary.
Something to shake with anxiety, something to blame, or something to blame? Some of them look at you like you'd expect.
Yeah. Let's meet that expectation. I'll fool you well.
Crossing indoors, Lily and I take the upper seat.
"We will begin the military debate. Major General Dammer, explain the situation."
Such a declaration of Lily launches the military debate.
Major General Dammer, nominated by her, opened his mouth.
"As the lords know, the usurper king Heinrich himself led the army to the front line. Parent Recruitment Army...... For convenience I would refer to it as Parent Recruitment Army, but this breakdown of Parent Recruitment Army is the capital Kingsguard Army, Regular Army Four of the Second, Fifth and Sixth Armies. The total number is 80,000."
Until now, for information that everyone knows, the aristocrats in line, the military, are listening in silence without seeing any major reactions.
"Out in the sky the king's capital. Naturally, you shouldn't put it in perspective of a protracted war or anything. The enemy is likely to challenge a short-term showdown"
Here, a whispering voice occurs there.
In the meantime, a nobleman raises his voice.
"May I make a statement?
"Yes. Go ahead, Sir Vergee"
Major General Damer nodded.
Sir Vergie, with forgiveness, opens his mouth when he rises from his seat.
"Just because the enemy wants a showdown, there's no need for this one to respond. Fortunately, winter is near. If this one doesn't solidify his defense and respond to the showdown, the enemy will have to leave too."
Some noblemen, military men, nod at Sir Verzi's words.
Avoid the showdown...? I know how you feel, but you're stupid.
If you do cage like a turtle, winter will come soon.
That way the enemy forces will retreat. That's for sure.
But that would only be a temporary extension of life.
Avoiding a showdown is tantamount to hustling that we have no chance of winning in full heaven.
What would happen if I did that?
All forces within Magna are attached to King Heinrich.
Leaving from within the PLA as well.
At the dawn of winter and the arrival of spring, the difference in power must be more desperate now than ever.
So we can't avoid a showdown.
Before the theory of circumvention spreads, and I decide to open my mouth.
"Sir Vergie, I don't understand what Sir is trying to say. Sounds like you're saying that if it's a showdown, we're gonna lose?
"... I can't be sure I'll lose. I can't, but...... Slightly, I think it's a fight with minutes over there. You think the Chief of General Staff disagrees?
Thank you very much for your response as if something was stuck in my back teeth.
Well, it's hard to say you'll lose, isn't it?
"Hmm...... You still don't get it. It just seems like a great opportunity to me..."
That's what I said, lean your neck deliberately and show you.
On purpose, the field stirs for a moment. But as soon as I calm down, my gaze concentrates on me as I shoot through.
I feel the will to listen to every word and miss out on facial changes as well.
I sweated on my back. I just never put it on my face. Don't let it out.
"… Is this a good opportunity? The Chief of General Staff is seen as having a high budget to win the showdown?
Sir Vergie asks with a suspicious eye.
"Of course. King Heinrich came out on the front line, didn't he? Don't call this a great opportunity, what are you saying?
"... I see. In other words, what is the aim of the Chief of General Staff…"
"Yeah, neck hunting tactics."
Once again, the scene turns to pieces. And now it doesn't seem like it's going to town for a second.
"Gentlemen, calm down!... Are you serious? Acquire the King's neck. Cheng Cheng, if that is possible, it will be our victory. However, it is easy to say, and let them..."
"Difficult to do...... maybe?
"Come on. Don't hesitate, the enemy army is more powerful. It can't be easy to break it and aim at the king's neck."
I shake my neck, left and right, to Sir Vergie's words.
"No, you're wrong about the premise, Sir Vergie. Because the enemy army is powerful, you gain the king's neck so you don't have to break it. If King Heinrich dies, there will be only one heir to the royal family, His Majesty Karl III. The enemy will have to surrender."
"That's a trick. The king's neck to be earned is in the middle of that enemy army. How can you not break an enemy army and get a neck?
Sir Vergie, who will be spitting and disputing.
I laugh niggardly at his words like that. To demon everywhere.
"What do we do? It's settled.... use magic. Who do you think I am?
The gaze of me and Sir Verzi intersects. Sir Vergie swallowed the gokuri and spit.
"... what's the joke, Chief of General Staff?
"I'm not kidding. The lords can just foolishly storm the king's neck. Then the path to the king's neck opens itself"
"What a fool! Can you believe that story! If you really want to say so, show me the rationale!
To Sir Vergie's fury, I lay down my shoulders.
"Oh, my God, it's impeccable to expose a magical seed."
"Enough! Any more of this to your shitty paranoia...... huh!?
I shoot Lord Vergie sharply in the eye. That's how I sealed off his words.
Furthermore, we look around at all those who take part in the military conference.
"... strictly to the lords and others. Never leak what you're about to talk about. Break it and whoever it is will be sentenced to death."
Make a cold voice that doesn't have a temperature.
I waited for the word to penetrate before opening my mouth again.
"One of the enemy generals, General Maximilian, is responding inside here. Together with our assault, we will strip the enemy of their fangs.... No more questions, eh? Break through enemy soldiers rising in a sudden betrayal and name King Heinrich's neck. … our victory."
The best blemishes occurred today.
There it is, and the sound of amazement rises.
"Huh! Is that true, Chief of Staff? What's the story now!?
"Yeah, it's true."
"But... Can you trust me? Is it possible that General Maximilian is trying to fool us?
"No. It was not until yesterday that his general responded to us. He's been on our side since the beginning."
"Become!? from the beginning?
I can't stop blurring.
Well, if there's so many startling facts and things to do, that's it.
"Why have you shown so much activity in previous battles that I have been called a witch? That was with the help of General Maximilian. Thanks to his internal leak, it was easy to ambush."
"But...... That's hilarious! If his general is on his side, why would His Highness Konrat be like that! The soldiers who challenged His Highness should have been the Capital Guard and the Fifth Army of General Maximilian!
To Sir Vergie's words, I grin.
"That's really funny. How could such a mistake have happened?
- It's weird, I said empty words.
"Behold! Are you...!?
"No way? No way...... what?
I glanced at Sir Vergie.
"Ugh... uhh..."
Unexpectedly mouth caged Sir Vergie. Another voice sandwiched from the side there.
"That's it. Aren't you derailing a story that has nothing to do with military deliberations? Whatever the details, Admiral Maximilian's insides are true. Let me guarantee that, too. Now, knowing that fact, is anyone negative about the showdown?
Lily asks as such.
Participants in the military council share a gaze at each other.
You seem confused about how to take the earlier story.
Anyway, so far, no objections have emerged. It doesn't come out......
Mm-hmm. I'm not thrilled. Although it is gratifying that there is no disagreement.
Speaking of greed, I wish you had a little more morale......
I look around at the aristocrats, the military. Two, I got eyes on Count Avrine.
With a heart, Count Avrine speaks up just because he understands.
"The boulder is our house of witches! People's wickedness does not allow other followers. King Heinrich is pathetic too. I had no idea you were turning such a vicious witch against your enemies!
"Ruri. The spiciness of our witch hall is unique."
Lily rides the words of Count Aveline.
"It's terrible, isn't it? Because of that spitefulness, you can win..."
I inflate my cheeks and show them.
"Ha! No, no, you're absolutely right! But then the last fight... I mean, the last chance to do martial arts."
"You will. The medal first is General Maximilian, the second is General Gunter, and the third is...... It depends on the work of the lords in the last battle, right? No matter who's chosen, no grudges."
I add to the words of Count Avrine. Like stirring up the fame of those who are here.
"Ho. That's unbeatable. Naturally, you can promise me a reward worthy of a martial arts medal, won't you, Witch Hall?
"Yes. At the dawn of victory, let everyone on this occasion be called to account. But naturally, the extent of it depends on the size of the medal."
The faces of the people listening to me and Count Avrine get red.
If you take my word for it, the PLA's victory is certain.
Their prosperity will be imminent now.
How much later, can you maximize that? That depends on their own activity.
That's motivating.
Hehe, thanks to the driving of Count Avrine, I was able to boost their morale.
Thank the Count.
You saw it around, Lily gets up and opens her mouth.
"My lords, as you asked! The glory of victory is at present! All you have to do is grab it. Expect more and more medals from Sir and others. Encourage me!
"" "" Whoa!!!!
To Lily's radicals, the row attendants roar.
The PLA therefore chooses a showdown. Remains put in a witch's mouth truck.
