Sword of the Philosopher

"First, about the force against the Southern invasion."

Take Canaan's word for it, and the faces in the room gather their gaze at him, including me.

"I gathered too many faces on this continent. Plus the dragons help us, so the demons on the north side don't invade. This is very big."

"Do you have control?

When I ask, Canaan makes a difficult face, even as he snorts.

"There are two problems, but the first is that. We are a cross-border army… in the position of a coalition, but naturally we have a clue."

"Thinking about the aftermath of defeating the Demon King, saying that there are faces that are moving a lot"

"Exactly. Now I'm still quiet, and I'll do whatever I can - Lord Luon."

"What is it?

"Including Sophia, you and your companions… Furthermore, we will deal with the adventurer's face in such a way that there is no problem, but there is also the possibility that someone will interfere after this war. The showdown with the Demon King is still withheld. I don't want to get in the way of that fight with trends on the human side."

He said we should discuss those things.

"Please."

"Ok...... are you ok?

To the question, Canaan nodded slowly.

I'm pretty sure you're imposing. But I'm not even talking about political matters that I can work out by moving. Do we have to leave this place to him?

And here I put Sylvie in my sight. Perhaps it's a good time to ask about our people, including her.

King Canaan, I have one question for you.

"What's up?

"About our people… in what way do we fight in this southern invasion?

"... I'm sure you'll be invited to join us, but I'm not letting you be on the front line from the start. The same goes for the blood of the other sages who are currently staying in this fort and their companions."

"You think I can't let you die?

"There's that too... in my opinion, war is what the military does and I want to deal with it without the help of the adventurers"

... I see. From Canaan's point of view, do you believe that war is waged by soldiers and knights and should not be allowed to participate in other figures?

"However, I am also aware that this is a situation that I cannot say so, so let me take the form of asking for cooperation… some people will be dissatisfied with the adventurer's face, starting with Lord Luon, due to the fact that the army is taking the initiative. But just this once, let me handle it here."

"... ok"

In response, Canaan turned next to Sofia.

"And the same about Master Sophia"

"Canaan......"

"You, an important battle is withheld"

Fighting the Demon King - just in case you want to consider it and say you shouldn't be on the front lines here.

"The survival of Master Sophia and King Barks has also increased the morale of the soldiers. I'm on the front line, Sophia and the others stay back and boost morale. This must be a stone formation."

"I also agree with His Majesty's words and actions."

Boslo says. Then Sophia looked at me.

This one snorts too - as a result, Sophia responded, "Okay."

"If that's what you're saying... but if it's urgent..."

"You'll have to look at the situation and judge. Please don't push it."

Canaan stabs the nail. As a Sophia, I didn't have anything else to snort at.

From Fili and Alto and others, it could be a residual result of dissatisfaction. But if the commander-in-chief, Canaan, intends to do so, he should follow suit.

"Well, let's get back to it. Until the end of the southern invasion, those who are moving behind us should follow my instructions. We can't talk about the army itself stopping working, and we'll do everything we can not to do so."

"Is it possible that there is a traitor?

Sylvie for the next inquiry. Canaan looked back at her and started talking slightly between them.

"It's a concern, but at least there's no traitor at commander level. It's all right because Sophia signed with Raefin."

They check the area beforehand. Well, I can't believe there's a traitor in the army. It's not a war place when the situation comes, so naturally.

"I couldn't exactly confirm everything when I got to the knight level, but I explained to the facade of commanding the army. Even if there is a traitor, I am willing to deal with it. Things shouldn't happen that the war stations cover."

I'm not sure, but I've checked everything I can. Sylvie also raised her voice of conviction.

"So, what's the second problem?

I'll ask. Canaan gave a slightly heavier look as he returned to the story.

"As a matter of fact, we are releasing the Interceptors against the Demons. That's what I got."

"Hey, wait a minute. Are you all right?

When I panicked and spoke, Canaan nodded small.

"It's a face in trust. Not exposed for the first time."

Is there any skill...... I was curious, but decided to wait for the word.

"There are those among them who are infiltrating the kingdom of Barks. As is well known, the Demons are still occupying... thanks, they're willing to move there as well as the Southern invasion. I've been thinking about it, but the scale of the battle is far beyond my expectations."

"- The movement has been quiet until now, perhaps because we were trying not to be exposed to the power of war"

Sophia says. Then Canaan exhaled heavily.

"Apparently we need to tilt our forces there too... but considering the number of demons pushing from the south, the excess power is very little and harsh... Lord Luon, is this a stream that existed in the story?

"In the story, at the time of the southern invasion, the kingdom of the Barks was just a case of liberation"

"When it does, can it be called an unplanned event?

"Yes."

"Right..."

"If you divide your power, how much will it be?

"Right... if we're going to stop our enemies from the West, we're going to need to separate the corresponding forces. Given the demonic power currently assumed..."

The king's expression gets harsher. So I opened my mouth.

"It's definitely going to be quite a loss of power,"

"Oh."

I got Canaan's word and I nodded.

"Ok...... Garc"

With words, Garc appears on the desk. Canaans gaze at me for abrupt behavior.

"Confirmation, but you're almost done with the Demon King's magic trick, right?

"Needs some tweaking, but is possible for activation"

"Will the problem arise if we prevent magic in the current situation?

'There's some risk, but it'll be fine'

"Do you need anything when this one activates the anti-magic?

"What do you need?

"For example, I have to be close."

'There is no such thing. If we are the Spirit of God, we can fight it.'

"Okay. You don't seem to have a problem finding out about me and the Demon King moving out... so do you have any other powers besides dragons that the Spirit has gained?

Gark was silent on my question. How I can't understand the intent of the question.

'I'm here... but not so much. It is necessary to consider the size of the enemy to be able to hold back like a dragon... Lord Luon, what are you willing to do?

"The very fact that the demons of the kingdom of Barks survive is a story outside the story. The forces on the human side need to concentrate on the southern invasion, and if they leave under King Canaan, they will lose even more control. So I think this is the best way"

After that, I turned my gaze to Canaan - I said.

"I'll go."

One word. Canaan frowned without drawing the meaning of the word. The same goes for Sophia and Boslo - so I said, even more.

"With the presence of the Spirit on his side… with me, we intercept and defeat the demons of the West"
