The Branded Female Fencer

By the time the night began to whiten, Alphilis stood high on the castle gate as soon as possible. Not that I can see anything from it, but I was remembering the military law that Aldrius taught me.

"Nature is more sensitive than any good sensor or magician on the battlefield"

and. Thus Alphilis admonished his usual sleepy-supported self and watched what was going on in front of the castle gate earlier than anyone else. Because if the enemy moves, I thought some sign would show up in the woods. I have also experienced several times in the past that I was actually helped by it. Alphilis believed that there was nothing useless in Aldrius' words.

In front of the castle gate is a slope that is sleek, and the fortress of Salamo will have been built on a hill. The slopes naturally also consider the entry and exit of people to some extent, but their width is at best for a few carriages. Forests were left around to make it difficult for the great army to deploy.

Nothing noticeable changes yet are in the eyes of Alphilis. I can just hear the quiet woods and the birds starting their morning activities. One of the soldiers around called out to Alphilis, who stared at the sight.

"Do you see anything?

"Nothing."

The man was a tired middle-aged soldier. You must have survived this fierce battle, with constant wounds on your body. Was my left hand still broken or suspended from my shoulder. Except that which hung his arm was not a clean cloth, but his own garment covered in blood.

The man speaks to Alphilis with a candle of eyes.

"I used to come to a dead place like this in a woman's skies."

"Treating people like things? You're the ones in trouble without me."

"Exactly, but don't thank me. A woman has a role for a woman. I'll leave the battle to the man, and the woman will comfort the man at home."

To the man's words, Alphilis revealed his discomfort.

"Guys in this country tend to look down on women. I've often felt uncomfortable coming to this country."

"You won't have a choice. That's what this country is all about."

"Become?"

"You know this country is originally built by bandits, right? The bandits who founded the country were basically the ones who took and squandered them. I don't even care about the peasants who lived on the land.

I'm not a professional soldier. At the end of his tenure, he returns to the countryside to plow the fields. But in this thin land country, no matter what you do, land doesn't work regularly. We don't rely on the country, we have to cut through the land on our own. We need manpower to do that.

When a woman is old enough to have children, she is prompted to marry early. It's women's job in this country to have more children. It's a good woman in this country to have many sturdy children. That's why women who work outside are not seen in the eyes of favor. That's all we're talking about. Conversely, women take precedence in the house. Meals, sickness. "

Alphilis felt strange talking about the man. Naturally, values change depending on the country and the land, but I wondered what kind of discouragement the women of this country live in. And on the inside, I'm glad I wasn't born in this country.

Did the man get awkward when he saw Alphilis talking about nothing, he put his head on Polypoli?

"Ma, forgive me if I feel bad. If I hadn't had this fight, I'd be out of my term by now and back in the country. And for people like us, it doesn't matter which one wins and becomes the lord. I hope the battle is over before then.

You guys are the other way around, right? If it wasn't for the battle, it wouldn't be on the rice tarp. "

"Excuse me, it's not just mercenary work to fight. I don't mind accepting the opening of the fields as a job, we are."

"That's an interesting idea, but is there such a golden peasant in this country? We could even pay taxes by reducing our own meals."

"I can't take care of you that much. Mostly me."

I know what happened because I was originally born a farmer, but I noticed that Alphilis flew off with the birds together at the edge of his sight. When he rides himself out of the castle wall and confirms its direction, Alphilis blows a finger whistle. Then Dorothy runs up the stairs on the walls.

"What's wrong, Captain?

"Dorothy, please wake Lisa up. Probably an enemy attack. If you drop Lisa over here, we'll all assemble at the Wall in combat. Don't forget the weapon we made you prepare last night."

Copy that!

Dorothy, along with a petty reply, ran momentum first thing in the morning. This euphoria may be Dorothy's greatest advantage.

When Alphilis stayed on the walls, he stared at the sun as it began to climb.

By the time Lisa came to the walls and sensed the enemy's onslaught, the mercenaries were already ready and aligned to the walls. Originally the commander of this castle was Grants, but he had just arrived earlier to see what he thought. Grants' troops had been transporting large shipments, and it seemed like they had taken the trouble to transport them. And when I arrived, I heard a little bit about the situation from Ozdoba, and I just went to its site command to bring my luggage into a painting of the castle. I hope it doesn't matter how this one looks.

And now that the enemy attack had been told, I still didn't see that. An anxious Ozdoba runs to Grants and is perplexed as to what Ebden left to do. At the end of the day, the soldiers asked for Ebden's instructions, but from Ebden's standpoint, they were unfamiliar with taking command. Salamo's soldiers were obviously turning right and left.

I look at Rosetta as if she was slightly frightened.

"If Atai and the others weren't here, wouldn't this castle be falling in a moment?

"I guess that's why they could afford it too. Because Renatica's report says it was the end of something like even some people were drinking."

"You're totally licked. But they're the ones I see today, you know?

Rosetta smiled and the mercenaries responded confidently to the laugh. It's just Lisa and Fenna were looking in the direction of the woods with a harsh look.

"Lisa, do you know about the enemy?

"No, it's still special that it's a battlefield. I hear sensor-negotiated sorcery stretches all over each other to prevent enemy sensors, but you seem to be right. I know it's a big mess, but the details are very much. I'm still glad Fenna set the line."

"My juncture also chooses a place, though. This land has strong forest and soil attributes, so it was easy to bond. If it's just now, it might be more sensitive than Lisa's sensors."

"So, how are the enemies?

The line speaks without alarm.

"The number of enemies is approximately a thousand. And I think it's pulling something big."

"How many?

"Ten and a little. Enemy composition is mainly infantry"

"That's enough to know. You're on schedule, Alfie."

"Yes."

Alphilis nodded sparingly. Later, if the reports we received from Lunatica last night are successful, the battle carries more advantageously. And when the naked eye could see the woods shaking, the tension gradually increased. Some were warrior shuddered by the look of everyone straining and the rising tension. Rosetta hasn't laughed either already.

And the figure of the enemy soldier gradually comes out of the woods.

"You're here."

But I'm surprised, Mr. Yagi.

As Grafez put it, the upset could not be hidden from the enemy who came out of the woods. That would be the case. The fort in Salamo should have been half-baked until yesterday. If that fort had been resurrected overnight, it would have surprised whoever it was.

There are those who drink of their upsetting enemies with voices that can be heard up to the walls.
