The Adventure of the Boy With a Mind of a Middle-aged Man

Episode 34: Expeditionary Military Conference

The next day, he was instructed to appear by Zeke, and he was taking Aquid and Zem to the tent of the Expeditionary Force's male McBurn Border Uncle.

When I enter the tent, I gather my gaze from the Expeditionary Army and perhaps the Luxuries at the same time.

A number of regional luxuries had met each other, starting with the McBurn Border Uncle, the Earl of Hartwig, and the two Uncles. The contents of this operation devised by the Empire have become a formation that places a heavy burden on the Expeditionary Army. There, the presence of the mastermind was lifted. The Regular Army led by the Gatekeeper nobility of the flower garden is a horn, and as the main regional luxury of the Expeditionary Army responsible for the first battle of this operation, it will not be completed by any other personnel. This assembly can be taken for granted.

"Gray! You, Gray!?"

Fifty men with golden hair tied behind them take their seats vigorously as they drift their wolves (candles) in their faces.

"Ho."

Count Hartwigh, even surprisingly, narrows his eyes. In contrast, the McBurn Borderline Uncle (old man), who would be familiar with the circumstances, had a malicious grin.

"Gray, why are you here!?"

It's a voice color that contains a lot of agony, and it screams hard questions out of my mouth like that.

'Cause I want you to think about it. There's no way to say that I was forced to go to war by my mother-in-law for my own estate.

"Sir Dymer, calm down a little, too. He is the official name of this Millard family. There's nothing strange about being here."

When you look at me with a slight lateral eye, Uncle McBurn Borders gives out a help boat.

"Are you serious?!? Gray is only twelve years old! You could be in a place like this. No!

The McBurn Border Uncle is a flightless member of the regional majesty who can cross each other with the Gate nobility. Naturally, a luxury family will have to pay quite a price to make an opinion. Now, nobody else in the luxury tries to pinch their mouth. I guess it means that my life is heavier than the price I bear, at least for this Mistress.

Knowing my exact age, not looking back on my self preservation, and not standing on the battlefield? This may be the first time I've seen you in this world.

Either way, I know who he is.

"Grandpa, I'm here ready, so don't worry."

I assured him so as to be as powerful and chewy as possible.

"Big fool..."

Dimmer Maguire and I, who drop their shoulders, have a similar gaze and encouragement.

"Well, congratulations to them for making that vicious man look like a child."

Squirting (crushing) like Sieg throws up.

"Sieg Ong (oops), you will be peeled off immediately, so don't say that."

Even as Count Hartwigh laughs high, he bangs Sieg's back next door.

"I agree. Instead, you will regret from the bottom of your heart that you sympathized cheaply"

Pick a shapely beard and nod loudly McBurn Borderline Uncle.

These three bacatrios, when they get together, they're in trouble for the Emperor's class. Let's get down to business.

"Let me now describe this operation to exterminate the undead and exterminate the mastermind."

"Destroy the undead with pitfalls. This is ridiculous! If the undead can be wiped out to that extent, that Lord Lampertz should be defeated!!"

"Besides, this formation is as if our presence were - like a useless addition!"

"Such shameless manoeuvres are simply unacceptable!

Bumps and foamy discontent fill the room.

"You know what? Do you really understand the number of undead people? Along the way, in view of the fact that the inhabitants of forests, meadow animals and demons and the cities that have collapsed have also undead, they have reached about one hundred thousand large armies. In contrast..."

"My army is only 30,000..."

When Uncle McBurn spoke to the boss, the noise gradually became smaller and the noise quenched the fire.

Nevertheless, all those who clench their teeth, those who wrap their arms around each other and do poor shaking (bin Boo Yu) rubbing, are staring at me with the same gaze that they see even in their parents' hatred.

"Excuse me, but you guys don't have enough of a sense of crisis. A quarter of the Empire's cities are already drunk by the undead. It's extremely difficult to get rid of everything, and even if you survive intact, this empire is no longer significantly weakened. The Undead are not the only enemies."

"I mean, you think even if you survive this crisis, the kingdom of Amulzess and the Episcopal State of Esters will attack in?

"Stupid! If both the undead destroy their empires, they will be the next two countries to be targeted!?"

If you stand up and look at the face of a fiercely exalted luxury, you will understand how realistic that worst future is for him.

"Yeah, but I don't want reinforcements either."

Nothing, I don't think the two countries are cold-blooded or thin. They're undead, not normal wars. Joining a battle that you don't even know if you can beat poorly doesn't even reward you. Rather, it doesn't make sense to move. Well, there's usually a chance that the mastermind and the dogs are those two countries.

In any case, this performance also means restraint on both countries in the Kingdom of Amulzess and the Episcopal State of Esters.

"Wouldn't it be quiet!

Again, as the murky voice sinks as the wave and happens again, when Zeke drinks, he prompts me to move on.

"I'll keep talking. If bitten, melee is foolish because of their troublesome properties of undead. Long-range weapons are unlikely to be effective, except for flame-based magic."

"So the pit is on the boulder -"

One of the lavish rises up and tries to scream, still controlled by Zeke with his right hand.

"You all seem to be dealing with this in war, but this stuff, extermination. Yes, it's just pest control. The primitive of this hand works well enough."

"Pest control? But there will be a mastermind?

"Yeah, so let me work my imagination a little. Do you think they're manipulating the undead, one by one?

Sieg also finally realized that he put his hand on his chin,

"Are you saying that in a safe place, you're just giving instructions on a corps size?

That's like a shepherd manipulating a huge herd, so to speak. Some sheep leave the herd, but as a whole, move out like one individual. That's the image.

"I understand. But that could mean that the mastermind and his opponent could be in a position to see the battlefield, right?

McBurn's peripheral uncle's fears are really firing a target.

"You suspect the mastermind could be inside this army, don't you?

The noise of bugs ringing dominates.

"Yeah, you're right."

Again, this guy is excellent. And the same goes for Count Hartwigh and Old Sieg, who don't even look very surprised by the wind.

"Wait a minute. Are you saying that there are traitors among us who will destroy my country?"

"I didn't say that much. They say it's the most likely place to watch the battlefield safely and naturally."

"Isn't that equal to being there, saying so!!"

"Yeah, that's why I've only told His Majesty the Emperor the outline of this operation. We talked about it here, too, only a fraction of it. It is His Majesty's will from the point of view of ensuring fairness that we have limited information to share."

I gave the Emperor the full outline of the plan last night during a transfer to and from Lilinoa. The character of the emperor is well understood and, above all, lacks the benefit of destroying his own country. Because that emperor is unlikely to be the mastermind.

"Well, Your Majesty wants to believe us."

Sieg hits the gavel (Aizutsuki) as he puts his arms together.

"He's a perfectly sweet guy. But hey, raw hate (unfortunately), I'm not as kind as His Majesty.

If tens of thousands of life sacrificed filthy rats are on the spot, that's fine. If you're in that meeting before you, that's another joy. Have them dance as funny clowns. "

Yes. Out of those tens of thousands may have emerged those who could have approached the source of knowledge. Speech paths, such as feeding it unilaterally, mercilessly, and inferior organisms. It's really unpleasant.

"The criminal department will pay with interest."

When I realized, the place was strangely quiet. And I realize my mouth angle is unnaturally rising.

Don't, don't. Now it looks like an evil deputy (Akuda) who is behaving badly. When I'm fixing my mouth...

"You lords would have understood from your souls, too, wouldn't you? This guy is not serious. But I'll only guarantee the credibility of his words."

"I can assure you that he and his people have massive drilling skills."

McBurn Border Uncle and Siege affirm my operation, but no one makes it faint (gibberish) just staring at me, as if it were even in gold bondage.

"Is that it?"

Sieg shook his head wide, like a heartbroken,

"Don't you see... Gray, you should know more about yourself"

I said something that didn't make sense.
