The Branded Female Fencer

”Ahhhhh!”

"URAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Two platoon captains were wielding their swords against the orcs in desperate form.

Elsia had Utie on her head, and she was flying instructions to keep Elsia from being surrounded by orcs. Otherwise, Elsia, struck by the excitement of the war, will stubbornly end up stabbing the orcs that are already dying.

Around Gail, Rosetta's Special Forces were right to assist. Keep telling Gail what's going on in case she gets confused. Accustomed to the battlefield, ancient soldiers supported Gail with excitement and blindness. In Gail's experience, wielding one-on-one swords against orcs was close to winning, and it was difficult to deal with multiple orcs at the same time.

And when the orcs all around them stopped moving, their battalions were signaled to retreat.

Elsia Platoon Leader, let's retreat.

"We're going back, Gale Platoon Leader."

Elsia was spoken to by a boy soldier younger than her. Elsia nodded with a blue face and checked the faces of the surrounding crew.

Gail was more calm than she thought in the cynical voice of her companions, and had already begun to retreat when she took the call. It was a difference because of the difference in the quality of the servicemen, but Elsia was unhappy with it and ordered to retreat with a small bite of her lips.

Let's go back, are we all safe?

"Yes, only minor injuries."

It was mostly just a finishing touch to the orcs.

The blood and sweat of the enemies, including Elsia, made her look terrible, but Elsia was relieved that there were no dead. Even though I've experienced battles before, having subordinates makes me completely different from being nervous. If you become a company captain or a battalion captain, how on earth do you command people? Elsia was not surprised.

"(Or if I get used to the death of others, will the captain of the company or the captain of the battalion be fine?)"

When Elsia thought about it, one of the platoon praised Elsia with a gaze of respect.

"Even so, the Elsia Platoon Leader is right!" Use your thrusting sword to vividly smash the orcs that are coming! Even with such a slender sword, if you use it properly, you can get multiple orcs at once! "

"That's right! I learned that giant orcs can be stopped once with a shield, then beaten with heavy weapons, or defeated without approaching with medium- or long-range weapons!" It was the first time I'd ever heard of a pierced sword that could simultaneously swing multiple swords. The winner of the unified martial arts tournament, the women's division! "

... it just so happens that...

Elsia was humble, but defeating the Orcs was not a problem for Elsia. Compared to the mighty men who fought in the Unified Martial Arts Games, I was confident that even if they charged at the same time, about five of them would be light.

However, when attacked from all directions on the battlefield, the situation was slightly different. First of all, it is important to take the position. With the utmost care not to be surrounded, he takes the lead as a platoon commander. I knew that Jaeger was serious about training and training as a platoon leader, but when it came to actually doing it on the battlefield, the situation was completely different.

"(I'm glad I listened to you seriously... there was a voice around me saying that you should do the Company Leader based on your achievements, but what would have happened if Alphileys hadn't kept saying no?)"

When Elsia thought of Alphilees' sinister face, she was able to breathe out deeply for the first time. At the same time, a tremendous sense of fatigue assaulted. We'll have to make another assault in an hour. If you repeat this until the sun goes down, you may be uneasy about your strength, your energy, and even your nerves. Appreciate the vision of Alpha Reese, who proposed training to take turns holding the front line.

Elsia checks the other platoons retreating from behind her and sends signals to each other to make sure they're safe. Apparently, I was relieved that I was able to do well as a platoon leader.

Goraaaa!

The orc under the orc's carcass suddenly rose and barked. Were you hiding, or did you just breathe back? The youngest girl in the platoon grabs Elsia's legs before she complains about which squad she failed to defeat.

Caaaah! Captain Elsia!

"Grrrr!"

An orc thrusts the girl towards Elsia as she holds up her thrusting sword. It was meant to be a meat shield, but did the dying orc not think about escaping there, or did his consciousness become cloudy after the injury? He waved his axe at the girl who was his shield.

Ah!?

Elsia's response to the impossible behavior was delayed for a moment. I couldn't reach the orc's arm with my thrusting sword, and my throwing weapon wasn't powerful enough or in time.

The serviceman dies. That despair pierces through Elsia's head, and the inside of her head turns pure white. Oh, this is what despair is all about. If you think you may die, then you come up with the idea to survive one after another, but why can't you move if it's the death of one of your friends?

It was the sharp flash of the sword that broke into Elsia's armor.

What, are you okay?

An emerald sword gathered the orcs into three pieces and gave them to Elsia, holding the girl who had fallen. Emerald strangely peered into her eyes as she turned towards Elsia.

Did you hurt yourself anywhere?

"... ah, no! As you can see, it's okay!"

When Elsia replied, Emerald laughed.

"It's because I hit it, but I usually don't mess around." Ah, well done. I'm sure it'll be all right next time. EMRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR,

Emerald waved and quickly chopped up a platoon of orcs who were trying to catch up with their retreating forces, flying further toward the front.

A completely different sword on the battlefield. Even though it should be easier to get hurt than humans for just the amount of wings, I didn't let the orc swarm scratch me, and my companion leaked an admiration from Emerald's trick in an instant.

"Awesome ~"

What was that?

"Is that the princess Emerald?" If it's a fight, it looks like someone else... "

I knew that the sword was hanging, but I realized once again that the essence of emeralds was a hunter, and Elsia was also puffy, but I waved my head and gave instructions to the platoon.

"That's not a slip." I'm going to back off! "

"Hey, it's not okay."

It was Liam who spoke up to Elsia as she tried to step back. Elsia was stuck with words when she saw the unpleasant scene, but Liam spoke gently against her expectations.

"Everyone's fine, you're doing great." If you take a break back there, say hello. "

... what, it's disgusting. Have mercy?

Liliam shouted in amazement at Elsia's strength. It was a look of spare as it looked at a few orcs that were coming towards it.

"You, Elsia. Do something about your crooked guts." It's just labor, isn't it? "

"Ru-sa-say!" You and I are each other! "

"In my first role as platoon leader, half of them died. That's why I said it was good. It's a simple compliment."

Lilliam was furious again. Ugh, Elsia got stuck in words.

Well, if you can stretch that pleasure, you're still fine.

"... did you get used to the death of your people?"

Lilliam stops the sword for a moment. I used my magic eyes to cut out the orcs at once. I turned to Elsia using the blanks I had made.

"You can't get used to it, can you? But if I don't wield my sword, I'll die, and my people will die more. If you don't like it, be strong enough to protect it all. Well, that's impossible."

"... somehow I can see what you mean by that." When you're done for the day, let me tell you something. "

"If you want me to tell you to keep your head down, that's fine."

But that's fine.

I thought I was going to hate it so much, but when I saw Elsia leave without saying yes, Lilyam got confused. And giggling.

"It's probably the first time I've seen a cute girl." I wonder if it would make you stronger than I am. But I wonder when I'll realize that I can't protect everyone in reality. It's really best to stay cheeky. "

Even the brash Elsia will know the reality one day. While not realizing that there was a feeling of loneliness in her chest, Liliam turned the battalion she was leading towards the orc who was still rushing from the front.
