Survival in Another World With My Master
Chapter 181 ~ Message ~
Tong tong tong, I can hear the knock.
"Come in."
I heard a very calm voice from above my head. It was Ellen's voice.
Where are you? It's under the desk! I wondered if she was hiding in the back room, but somehow Ellen pushed me under the desk and took her seat at the desk.
So now I have Ellen's enchanting raw feet in front of me... not her, but her lower body wrapped in the Virgin's robe.
"Excuse me! Archbishop Deckard's life has brought us an alert!
"Thank you very much. So, what's the alarm?
"was the launch of an expeditionary force to conquer the bandits that marched through the Kingdom of Merinard from their home country. That's about 20,000."
"20,000 people..."
Oops, 20,000 people... I don't know if it's the number of people who put in the weight, but it's a huge number. No matter how big the Holy Kingdoms are, how many men do they have to split up here with whiskey? What's going on with the war with the Empire?
"For more information, please refer to this letter. And there are words that the Archbishop told me to tell you."
"What is it?
"Be prepared, Archbishop. That's what he said."
"Prepare....."
Ellen murmured and heard a dry sound as if she had begun to check the contents of the letter. Ellen tried to push me under the desk to make me hear this.
But what the hell does it mean to be prepared? Well, if 20,000 soldiers are coming, we'll have to prepare a lot. Places to stay, drinking water, food, and suddenly 20,000 more people, even if it's a plague, it's deadly, so you have to be careful about sanitation. Or is there suddenly enough room in Merynesburg to support 20,000 soldiers?
Don't worry about the contents of the letter.
"... I see. I did receive a letter from the Archbishop. Rest well."
"Thank you very much. But I would like to return to the Lord as soon as possible."
Really? Then let Sister Amarilier know if you need anything. And.... "
Ellen stood up from her seat and remained silent for a moment. What are you doing? As she tilted her neck, Ellen's feet in front of her, or Robe, gradually began to emit bright light. What light!?
"It's a miracle of activation. I felt tired."
"It's... an honor to give the Virgin a personal miracle!
When the light subsided, such an exchange was made on my head. Well, light today is a visual effect of miracles and tricks. Pretty conspicuous. If you do it in the middle of the night, you'll find out where you are.
"Yes, please tell the Archbishop that everything has been done. And thank you."
"I understand. Now, if you'll excuse me!
I heard footsteps and the door opening and closing. Apparently, the beacon has left. However, Ellen has no sign of moving from her desk seat. Um, I can't get out? When I followed Ellen's knee, I took about half a step. That's why I can't get out?
Looking up at her face from the space between the slightly empty desk and her seat, Ellen pointed her red eyes towards her.
"I thought you might like to enjoy my lower body a little more?
"I don't have that fetish with me. I mean, it's hidden in the robe, and there's nothing to enjoy..."
"So this is what you want to do?
Ellen starts to reveal her raw feet by lifting the robe little by little. Oh, it's a thin, white leg... not a leg.
"Stop it. You must be a lady."
Grasp the rising hem with both hands and lower it. It was close.
"If we don't do this, we won't be able to beat Princess Elf."
"That's not a rush. Naturally, naturally, naturally. It's not about winning or losing."
Meanwhile, Sylphie and the others were tempted to whip me up, but I... I mean, I'm vulnerable to temptation. I'm aware of that. I guess I'm learning, too, yeah.
Ellen finally left me, so I crawled out under the desk in the office. Phew, a sense of openness.
"But 20,000. That's an amazing number... that's a big country."
"That's right. This means that the country has begun to take action to get rid of the obstructors."
That said, Ellen took the brief that was on the desk and handed it to me. You mean you can read it? Which one?
"... eh?
What was written in the brief cast doubt on the eyes.
"Are you serious?
"Unfortunately."
That's how Ellen answered my words and shook her shoulders.
The writings were described in a rather puzzling and elegant way, but in summary, it was said that "the aim of the Expeditionary Army is not only to conquer the Liberation Army, but also to dispose of the true Virgin Ellen as a witch." I don't know what it means.
"What happened?
"While I was away from the center, the garbage scum that I've lost using these Eyes has regained power. It's sad."
Ellen exhales deeply. Can that happen?
"This is how it feels to think of me as a witch, and to think that all the sins exposed by my" eyes "were committed by me. That's what they're going to do."
"Isn't it too chaotic? You didn't just see the truth with your eyes, did you?
"Yes, of course. With these eyes, it's easy to find out where the evidence is. I listened to everything and seized the physical evidence during those hearings."
"Did you flip it over... somehow without a word?"
I would like to complain about one thing to the nostalgians who simply lacked Ellen and were easily rejuvenated by the mainstream, but it would be better for me to say such a thing irresponsibly without knowing what was going on. In other words, the nostalgic forces in Adolescence are small enough not to discourage such impossible claims by the mainstream.
"Isn't it dangerous to stay in the castle like this?"
The mainstream has already certified Ellen as a witch and sent an expedition. The arrival of the Expeditionary Army must have been slower than that of the boss of the case - the Archbishop, but even if the Archbishop arrived in Merynesburg, it could not stop the Expeditionary Army of the Holy King, which had once moved. If we stay in this castle, Ellen will be sent to the fire table as soon as the expeditionaries arrive in Merynesburg.
The doctrine claimed by the mainstream has already been tampered with, pointing it out and spreading the right teaching to the Holy King ─ ─ or scratching around Adolescence is no longer a problem at that level. It would be a matter of time before Ellen was eliminated and the archaeologists who had Ellen as their flag were equally eliminated as heretics.
"That's right. If this continues, my life will be less than a month away. You will be caught, tortured, 'confessed' to all your sins and burned on a fire pit."
Ellen turned her back on me and looked out the window in the office. Is there an empty line of sight? Soon the sky was covered with black clouds. It looks like rain is coming.
"I won't let that happen. I'll grab Ellen if I have to."
"And you're going to make me yours by handcuffing me?
"Yes, I will. And destroy the Holy King's army with the Liberation Army. Use any hand you can."
"It's 20,000 people. You think you can kill so many innocent people?
"I will if I have to. For me, the life of Ellen alone is heavier than that of the 20,000 members of the Holy King's Army I don't even know. I mean, without Ellen, we're going to fight them."
In the first place, it would be an army to fight the Liberation Army. Either way, it is a matter of certainty that there will be a contradiction.
"I mean, what about me?"
"Looking at the big picture, I guess. It's important to me."
Really? That's right. Even if you call me a Virgin, I'm just a little bit of a special girl. "
"I guess so. But we can reduce the number of deaths."
"That's right. Sure, with my miracle powers, I could save a few lives, maybe dozens."
Ellen looked back at me and nodded. No, it's not.
"No, that's not the point. If Ellen and the Archbishop give it publicly to the Liberation Army, the Holy King and the Liberation Army can try to talk. No matter how weak the nostalgia is in the Holy Kingdoms, the nostalgia still have a lot to offer. Not only in the Holy King's interior, but also in other countries."
"Nh... yes, I think I and Archbishop Deckard have been known to some extent in various foreign countries."
"As for the Liberation Army, I think such a helper and connection is what I want so much from my throat. If we can work with foreign countries to make peace, we will end up with fewer deaths."
"I see...."
Ellen murmured with no expression, but with a sinking atmosphere. This is it, everything I've ever done has been flipped over a lot. Really? Well, I guess so. Somewhere the answer is empty.
"Sweet things are good when you're feeling down. Come on, let's relax a little with that reception set."
He lowers his gaze and pushes down on Ellen's depressed back to guide her to the sofa in the docking set, where he also removes her favorite confectionery from the inventory. Fluffy pancakes with raw cream, strawberries and strawberry jam.
"Here, ahn."
Use a knife and fork to slice the pancakes into bites and bring them to Ellen's mouth.
"Nh... delicious"
After several times carrying pancakes into her mouth, she gradually regained vigor in Ellen's red eyes.
"I want a drink."
"Yes, yes."
I'll take a glass of ceramic with milk out of the inventory and give it to you. What kind of milk? Silence. Anything is good as long as it tastes good.
Ellen receives a cup from my hand and snorts his throat and drinks milk.
"It's delicious milk. I've had it before."
"Hahaha, because the environment is good over there. The quality will improve."
Because it is equipped with food, clothing, and shelter, and there is no monster attack from the front line, so there is less stress. The rear base is the origin of this milk.
"I don't think it's just Ellen, but don't take it lightly. If you need me, I'll grab you and run."
"That's right. They'll grab you."
"Do it. I wonder how it's going to work afterwards...."
I can't think of a proper countermeasure in my head, but I think it would be better for the Liberation Army to take Merynesburg before the Holy King's Army arrives. This city is spacious and has many walls and strong defenses. Above all, our family of Sylvies - royalty - is sleeping in the frozen compartment of this castle.
No, even if Sylvie and his family were taken hostage, they would choose to fight... I don't want you to make that decision. After all, we should send our soldiers to Merynesburg. The problem is marching... Can we get here while we take control of the fort on the way before the Holy King's Army arrives? If you just take Merynesburg and you're cut off from backup supplies and isolated... would you be okay with me? Rather, it may be more effective to keep bleeding the Holy King's Army while standing in Merynesburg. Perhaps the ants will continue raiding the Holy King's army that surrounds Merynesburg from the Arihiburg side.
Mass production of airboards and formation of high-speed mobile units to quickly occupy Merynesburg, ignoring cities and fortifications on the way. The main squad is marching against cities and fortifications ignored by high-speed mobile units. Intermittent raids on the incoming King's Army by extracting a portion of the Melinesburg-occupied high-speed mobile unit, slowing down its invasion and increasing bleeding. If the main unit arrives in Merynesburg earlier than the King's Army, stand in Merynesburg and carry the basket castle. If it fails to do so, the advance mobile unit will hold the back of the King's Army in Merynesburg. Hmm, can't you cum?
Air strikes by the Happy Air Force, manoeuvre attacks by pickup airboards with machine guns mounted on airboards earlier than horses, and defenses using Golem baristas and goats foot crossbows seem unlikely to defeat the 20,000 King's Army if used effectively. If you want, you can make a trump card called the Magic Stone Bomb.
"I feel something evil."
"Excuse me. I was just thinking about a strategy for the Holy King's Army."
The content is relentless and may unilaterally kill the Holy King's Army. That's a good idea, Virgin.
"Well, I think I can handle about 20,000, so don't worry too much."
"I envy your confidence to insist on dealing with 20,000 soldiers. Do flowers bloom in your head?
"Oh, you're back. Keep it up. Keep it up."
While stroking Ellen's head, which is regaining its usual sharpness, I keep thinking about tactics against the Holy King's Army.
Well, I'm sure my tactics are full of holes, so Sylphie and the others need to think about it. Do I need to contact you with an explanation of the situation?
That's what I thought. To get in touch with Sylphie and the others, I first drifted my gaze into the room to find the limes that might be lurking somewhere in the room.
