Sword of the Philosopher

Defense Means

Return to the inn and confirm the dining room where you spoke to the general once. I didn't see any of my people anymore, so I'm going back to my room.

"Oh, finally back"

Kuuza welcomed me. In the back of the room are also the appearances of Silvi and Sofia.

"Feel like I've been waiting."

Mentioning it while closing the door, Silvi started talking.

"How about that, you talk to me about things?

"... Either way, after this fight is over,"

To my words, Sylvie shrugged her shoulders.

"I thought you'd say that. As far as I'm concerned, I'll be happy to talk to you soon."

Lightly, she left the room. Turning to the leftover Kuuza and Sofia, Kuuza nodded slightly as to whether the idea was to agree with Silvi.

Sophia to stay... she mentioned another point, not about me.

"... Raefin and others left beside me every now and again, does that have anything to do with Master Luon?

I wondered what to do...... but I also thought you were going to lie.

"It's also true that it had something to do with it, but I don't think that's everything"

"Okay. That's all I need to hear now, too."

"... don't you get angry?

Sophia smiled slightly when she somehow bumped into the question.

"You saved my life and further worked out this far. There's no reason to be angry."

"Oh well."

While I groaned that I was sorry in my heart, I mentioned the General.

"Oh, and the general was also breaking through about Sophia."

"... it must be absolutely natural for you to realize more about me than you've been given that keen insight. What did you say you would do?

"Until the battle is over, keep it a secret"

"Okay. Let's think about what to do after the battle, after it's settled."

In conclusion, Sophia left the room, as did Silvi.

In the end, it seems all my people are waiting for me. That must be the conclusion of the three of us discussing it.

I'll move my gaze to the remaining quail.

"... As for the battle, I think you will follow the general's instructions"

"I guess. So, what do we do?

"I'm not going to do anything wrong," he said. Looks like we're gonna have to decide what to do with the demon invasion, and we've been avoided. "

"You deserve more than not knowing what the situation will be."

Kuuza also speaks convincingly. I can see a little discontent on that face.

"Mr. Luon, can I have one?

"Oh."

"It doesn't seem like Mr. Leon is imitating us to deceive... is there a deep reason why Mr. Leon doesn't talk that far?

"... Honestly, that's hard to explain. There's only one thing you can say from me at the moment."

"Yeah."

"It's not just about me. It's about me."

After I said it, I thought I might have given you a hint... Kuuza just returned "ok" without mentioning it any more.

"Well, it's a battle now."

"Oh."

"Let's do our best."

Qusa voice with a temper. I nodded at it - ready for the fight, and now I've decided to take my time off.

Then a few days later, at last, the presence of the Demon Nation becomes clear on the Kingdom side as well.

In addition, a situation is reported in which demons that have become military are approaching the capital. North, east, west - that kind of report should have been made, and I ate the call from the general.

"Well, then, I'm coming"

When I told Sophia and the others, I left the inn. What a royal palace the designated place was.

I'm the only one who's going to think about Sophia. But I discussed it with my buddies... and as a result, I had concerns.

"We are only outsiders. I don't think the general's suggestion would make me unscrupulous, but it's just not a good state to have a veto."

That's what Silvi said. Kuuza also agreed to it and came to the conclusion that measures were needed.

So I have a companion who...

"I think you're right."

"Right."

It was Raifin. She talks as she jumps around me.

"So, Master Luon, what can I do?

"I haven't even told the General about Raefin's presence... but that guy would understand the situation soon enough. Raifin himself wanted to say hello in front of the building."

"Okay."

"But, by the way, Raifin. Have you ever met King Canaan?

"None."

"Have you ever snuck into a castle?

"About twice."

Do you have one? I decided not to mention it any more, even though it was a scratch on the inside.

When I visited the castle, Boslo was waiting in front of the gate. When I introduced him to Raifin after he said hello, he laughed.

"I see, you let her accompany you as a deterrent"

Lightly breached. But there was a continuation of the General's words.

"Unfortunately, those actions have been wasted... because this time I'm going to show you my room"

"Is it a private room? On the contrary, I'm surprised."

Boslo laughs. Then we go inside.

Is the castle moving around a lot, you can hear things starting with the sound of shoes. Walking often while listening to it. I reached the room and was put through it.

It was an extremely simple room with only about a bed of large furniture. I don't have enough stuff to think it's a guest room... but I can recognize that it's a room that I use somewhere around a pile of paperwork on the table.

"Well, we're already in a fighting position and moving in the castle as well. Given the demonic march speed, the battle will begin in a few days"

"On the national side, how do you respond?

"Intercept. The demons are coming from three directions: North and East and West. In contrast, we will consolidate the castle gates of the capital, in such a way as to protect all sides"

In the game, no enemies existed at the South Gate...... but it's only a game performance and you should consider that there were actually quite a few demons and forces. If you don't have enemies, you can't loosen the gates.

"According to reconnaissance unit confirmation, the main force of the demon is Kobolt. Armed but capable of lower classes, I expect even this general soldier will be able to handle it somehow. And apparently there's a major enemy unit on the north side."

"So the general, there?

To inquire, Boslo nodded.

"Um, it also has the highest number of forces to push from the north. Depends on how the enemy comes out, but we need to deal with it there first"

"About East and West?

"Each will be held by a knight"

"… may I ask the commander's name?

Asking, Boslo speaks the name of Attire and Sherk...... there was a lot going on, but for one thing the Kingdom of Alastin side seemed to make no mistake about playing defense on the game.

Here's what I think - this battle is a collision between an army and an army. Whatever the tragedy of a knight dying in battle in a game, the difficulty of clearing itself is low. But there is a question as to whether it will be as easy as a game in this situation of exile crisis.

That will apply to future battles… especially about the southern invasion. Even if you think from Richard's testimony, you can think of the demonic invasion of the south as a gateway. We need to see exactly what this battle looks like and understand what clashes between these regiments look like.

"I understand the situation. So it's about us."

"Um, right there. This time, I want to talk to you about it."

"Consultation?"

Boslo nodded at me with a hard face when I asked him back.
