Takarakuji de 40-oku Atattandakedo Isekai ni Ijuu Suru

"The next attack is coming! Quick!!"

Barletta pulls Ichigo off the fence, pulls his arm and rushes down the stairs in the defensive tower.

The two flew out of the tower, flashed by the sight that spread in front of them.

There was a large hole in one of the roofs of the citizens' dwellings built in the fort.

A little further away, a large round stone is falling trying to plunge into the ground.

Citizens who noticed the sound of destruction were coming out of the house.

"It's an enemy attack! Sound the alarm!!

Barletta calls out loudly to the guards who are staring down into the fort from above the fence.

The guard ran off in a hurry.

Soon, Cancun, and the bell rings.

"Come here!

Barletta drew his hand, and Ichiyoshi rushed out to the quarters.

From buildings everywhere, citizens who have noticed the alarm are popping outside.

Run as it is for a while, when you reach the quarters.

The noise of vandalism echoed from the rear.

Stone bullets hit the barrier directly.

"Mr. Kazra! What happened!? What is that alarm and the sound now!?

Zirconia pops out in her sleeping clothes with a long sword that fits in her sheath in her hand, rushing under the two.

"Ya, they trebushet..."

"It's a Barbell attack! It's a large siege weapon that throws stone bullets, trying to break the north wall!

Valletta answers, replacing the good that is upset and troubled.

Zirconia looked like she had lost her word for a moment, but quickly ran back inside the quarters.

"Mr. Kazra, the enemy may attack us! Leave the fort immediately!

"What, so, but we can't just run away..."

"Not if you're saying that! This could be the battlefield!?

Without waving his side, Barletta tries to pull a good hand and head to the square where the carriage is parked.

Ichigo made sure he was dragged and took a few steps, but stopped his leg.

"Mr. Kazra? What's the matter, hurry up..."

"No. You can't just leave here."

With a hard look to say all the best, Barletta turns a strange face.

"What do you mean, no!? We have to leave the fort as soon as possible!

"What do you think of the citizens and soldiers here when enemy attacks start and people in positions like me get away first? And that's what's going to be irrevocable."

"What is that?!? If the enemy comes in, you may not be able to escape!?

"Still, you can't run away now. If I were to escape, it would be after I ran out of means besides really escaping. Absolutely no way we're the only ones running first before the citizens!

"Mr. Kazra..."

"Let's go back to the quarters."

Ichirano unwrapped his hand, which was held by Barletta, and ran out to the quarters.

Barletta had no choice but to run out after him.

"Alarm!? Barbell attack!?

"Where is Master Narson!? Where do we go!?

"Guards get geared up and assemble outside the quarters! Go to the Infantry Squadron quarters too, tell them who!

When the two of them returned, the inside of the quarters was in a noise like poking a hive.

The guards and samurai are rushing to and from the hallway.

"Kazlah!"

From the back of the hallway, Liese, with a long sword in her hand that fitted into her sheath, rushed over with Eira.

Was Reese training early in the morning as usual, her hair in one piece, in private clothes?

"What happened!? What's that alarm!?

"Barbell has launched an attack. It's a siege weapon that flies big stone bullets, trying to break the northern barrier. They could attack us inside the fort."

"Oh no..."

"Dear Kazura, are you hurt!?

I put my hand on a good cheek, looking like Eira had stirred up.

On one good cheek, there was a small abrasion and thin blood seeping through.

"Huh? Oh, you cut it with fragments when they attacked the tower..."

Ichigo looks at his cheeks with his hands and says somewhere blurry when he sees the slightest blood on his fingertips.

I had seen a stone-throwing attack by the enemy straight away, but I still had a rare sense of reality and some fluffy sensation creeping into my head.

Reese stared straight at the good as she bit her teeth off a long time.

"Kazra, wait here until I get back. Eira, Barletta, Kazura, please."

"Li, Master Reese, wait!

"Hey, you, where are you going!?

Eira and Ichigo grab Reese's arm at the same time trying to rush out.

"North Wall. We'll intercept the enemy."

"There's nothing I can do about you going! More than that, we need to get to Mr. Narson and Mr. Zirconia!

"I can't do such a long thing. If the fence is going to be broken, we need to get to it as soon as possible."

"So, what are you going to do with it!

"When soldiers fight for their lives, I can't just be blurry behind them. I fight, too."

"What are you talking about! First of all, you've never been in action!

When Leese let the two of them go, they turned to one another.

Open your mouth in a slow tone to calm you down.

"No, no one does at first. Besides, that's not what I'm saying right now."

"You could die!? Stay with us!

"It's the same for everyone who could die."

"So you need to fight directly..."

"Dear Liese,"

As Reese and IchiLiang were pressing questions, Ichios came with several soldiers from the back of the hallway.

Ixios is as usual and I don't see him panicking at all.

"Master Kazura is right. I know how you feel, but please weigh in."

In a pale tone, Ixios says.

To him like that, Reese glanced at him as if to stare.

"Dear Ixios, I am a man of the Istel family. You can't show your men and people what you've lost. This is the time to take the lead and fight."

"I don't think anyone got through you, even if you didn't fight in the lead. There are more things you need to do than that."

Leese turns his gaze to Ixios.

"Today, many citizens live in this fort. I'd like a summary of them."

"You shouldn't have to be me to do that. Together with the soldiers, I will fight the attacking Barbell army."

"Of course, you'll do that too"

"Hey, hey, Mr. Ixios!

In a hurry he raises his voice. For one thing, Ixios turns his gaze to silence him, saying, "Don't pinch your mouth."

"There should be at least two legions of enemies. In contrast, this is only two squadrons and the escorts who are escorting you. As it is, there is not enough power. Gather servicemen from among the citizens and let them come back with weapons to the fence. I ask Master Reese to direct them."

"And two legions...? No, more than that, the civic summary doesn't have to be me."

"You are the most fit. For the future, you should do it with a lot of people's confidence."

Reese shut up for a few seconds, but nodded whether she was convinced by Ixios' valve.

"Okay. However, non-combatants will escape from the South Gate."

"No, there are no soldiers to attach to the escort, so if they turn to enemy cavalry, they will be slaughtered. And we need them to help defend us until reinforcements arrive."

"How long before reinforcements from Isteria arrive?

"I sent out an expedition, but it will take seven days, no matter how soon. We have enough weapons and arrows to store, so if we're all defensive, we don't have a zero chance of holding up."

"Yes... after all, let the citizens who cannot fight escape"

"I won't. We need them to help us fight, too. Without the citizens, the fort will fall in a few days."

Reese gives a resolute expression to Ichios.

"If we're going to get out of here, it's the only time. If this place falls, those who are accustomed to building forts and who have experience in the manufacture of mortars and building machinery will be taken prisoner by roots. That's all we absolutely must avoid."

"So if we defend ourselves in total, we're expected to hold out until reinforcements arrive. We have enough training for the soldiers here to fight the cage castle, and there are more than 1,000 citizens with military experience to their advantage. We should endure until reinforcements arrive."

"The enemy is a large siege weapon throwing stone bullets, trying to break through the northern barrier"

Hearing that, Ixios raised his eyebrows a little surprised.

"Destroy the fence...? Is that true?

Reese turns a good eye.

"Ho, it's true. Now, the roof part of the defensive tower I was in was crushed in one shot with a direct blow from a stone bullet. If that thing hits the wall, I think it'll collapse in a few shots."

The moment Yiliang answered, Zushin, and the sounds echoed from the outside for the third time in a row.

Reese turns to Ixios again.

"The enemy's purpose is undoubtedly the taking of the fort. I think the enemy is concentrating their power on the front, which can definitely break the fence, while the other makes it thin. Besides, you don't think we're going to get our citizens out of the south right away. It's the only way to get the citizens out of here now. The more you bring, the worse the situation gets."

Reese had heard that there were two legions while the enemy had a weapon that could break through the fence, and had decided that defense would be impossible.

Then I thought there was nothing more to it than letting a few more citizens escape while the enemy took the trouble to attack the fort.

There must never be a seizure of this fort, but what is impossible is impossible.

Then there is nothing better than searching for the best of the means available.

Ixios held his face and thought for a few seconds before taking a small breath.

"… then let's make sure we don't see any enemies on the south side before we judge. Is that okay with you?

To the words of Ixios, Reese nods.

"Yes. Put a few cavalry horsemen on the scouts and get them around the fort. After confirming that there is no enemy shadow, we will let the citizens escape with their weapons."

"Yes, I did. However, the possibility of escape is after Master Narson's decision. Once you have clearance to escape, Master Reese, along with the citizens, will need to escape south."

"... what? What are you talking about!? Don't be silly!!

Reese eats and hangs when she changes her blood phase.

Ixios does not change his expression and looks to Reese.

"I'm not kidding. Master Reese must escape to Isteria with Master Narson. We will stop the enemy until you can escape."

"I don't like it! I will fight too!

"Think about what it would be like if you were a prisoner. That's what you can't take back."

"Huh!"

He gets poked where it hurts, and Reese pushes him to shut up.

Ixios turned a good eye.

"Dear Kazura,"

"Ha, ha!

Ichigo unwittingly stretches his spine and raises his nervous voice.

"I don't see Master Zirconia. Maybe he's headed for the fence, but I'll send him to the south gate as soon as I find him. Until then, take the remaining samurai in the quarters and join Master Reese in the citizens' -"

"Dear Kazura!

At that time, from the entrance to the quarters, the Colts ran.

From a little behind that came a rushed mother as well.

"It's true that Barbell has attacked!?

"Colts! Dear Kazla, I apologize! I ran away on my own...... because I'll take you there soon!

My mother tries to hold up the Colts.

But when Colts flickered his hand, he hid behind the good.

"Stop it! I have to be beside Master Kazura!

"What are you talking about stupid!

"Stay, well, Yuma, calm down."

Sighing at Colts' mother - Yuma - in a way that made Ixios do good.

"Dear Kazura, could you take those children with you?"

"Yes, sir"

"Oh, uh, Master Kazura, didn't you see my husband?

Yuma, who managed to catch the Colts, turns her anxious eyes to good.

"What, you weren't with me?

"Yes. As soon as I heard the cry that Barbell had attacked me, I ran out and went..."

"... no way, on the north wall?

"Oh, no!?

For a good word, Yuma's face turns blue.

"Me, I'll go and bring you back!

"No!!

Barletta grabbed the good arm she tried to rush out.

"Hey, Mr. Barletta!?

"You can't go! Mr. Kazra stay with everyone! Because I'm coming!

"... I'll go. Kazra and the others head to the South Gate first."

"Oh, you, what are you talking about!?

"Dear Liese, please don't"

Regardless of Ichigo and Ixios' voice, Reese turns her back on everyone.

"At least let me do this. Eira, Barletta, Kazura, please. As soon as I find him, I'll head to the south gate too."

"Oh, hey!

"Dear Leese! Damn it, you guys, follow Master Leese!

Reese rushed out to stop everyone.
