The Executed Sage Reincarnates as a Lich and Begins a War of Aggression

Episode 59: The Wise Man Scouts the Conflict between the Two Kingdoms

"What do you mean? Tell me more."

"Yes! Actually..."

Grom begins his explanation in a frightened manner.

Says the Cane State and the Magic State are fighting near the border between the two.

They're so limited and small that they're close to a skirmish so far.

By the way, the Magic Country is located far southeast of the demonic kingdom.

It is on the other side of the Holy Cane Country and the two countries appear to be in contention on its border.

Therefore, I do not have to worry that the Demon King's Land will be directly involved.

Apparently, the beginning of the dispute lies in the multiple demands that the Holy Wand Nation has named to the Magic Nation.

He said he mainly sought to provide technology and transfer weapons but did not go through, sending a group of fighters disguised as their bellies to the border.

On the face of it, they're taking a body called the Bandits.

(Way too tyrannical. Are you in a hurry for losing the Virgin)

Listening to the standing around of the Holy Cane Nation, I can't help but scowl.

I also know you want to stay facial, but you'll have a strong attitude for it, but there will be a degree to it nevertheless.

Honestly, it was an unbelievable event.

It can be taken for granted that Magic Country declined the request.

When I was human, I remember it was a little more normal country.

I guess the upper management has changed and transformed in the last decade.

I didn't expect you to be so selfish.

Having grasped the situation, I stand up and give instructions to the two executives.

"Grom goes for recon with me. Luciana is waiting. If you know anything about these two countries, you need to put together some information."

"I understand!

"Yes, yes, please go"

Dropped off by Luciana waving flirtatiously, me and Grom traveled in a metastasis.

The destination was in the woods.

Immediately we lurk ourselves in the bush.

A stone fortress stood forward.

According to sensory witchcraft, a large number of soldiers are rushing around inside.

Looks like they're soldiers of the Magic Country.

There were people attacking such fortifications.

It is a group of human beings wrapped around a thin dirty coat and hidden their faces with cloth.

Approximately one hundred and fifty, probably the Holy Cane Army.

They seemed to be dressed as bandits.

It must only be to take the form that the state is not involved.

Whatever it takes, it's too strong.

Roughly no one is deceived by the statement, but I guess the Holy Cane Nation is going to claim it knowingly as well.

Soldiers from the Land of Magic had fought a battle from the fort.

He is wearing an aligned full body armor and is attacking by a crossbow while hiding in the shield he has installed.

Is the crossbow fixed to the fort a barista?

Let it swirl up, down, left, and right, and the bandits were also shooting at the Holy Cane army.

The opposing sceptre army uses bows and witchcraft while overtaking them with defensive witchcraft.

But the shooting prevented them from approaching, and the majority of them hid in the trees.

We have a far-sighted view of the situation.

They are not noticed because they use cover-up magic.

We can observe as a third party.

(Barista? That's unusual)

The barista used by Magic Country is a magic weapon that unleashes a variety of arrow bullets.

Although less portable and user-friendly than a crossbow, its power is breaking.

Both were weapons of the kind invented by Satsuku and not often found in other countries.

Looking back at the battle so far, that trend seems to have changed little from ten years ago.

In the first place, the crossbow itself is not widespread among countries.

Highly powerful when compared to bows, but due to frequent malfunctions in addition to complex structures.

The range isn't that long either.

At one time, it would also be a factor that a large number of poor quality artifacts appeared.

The crossbow, which was malfunctioning on numerous battlefields, deteriorated its ratings and impressions.

Since it was never cheap in terms of cost, he settled in the tide that ranged attacks could only rely on bows and witchcraft.

The flow was particularly pronounced in the case of baristas, which were still not prevalent.

Among these, it is the Magic Country that deals with weapons that harness their technical abilities.

There are no powerful operators or warriors out there, but instead they specialize in uniform bottom-up of their power.

A representative example of this was a collapsible crossbow, a barista attribute assignment, and so on.

Instead of personal training, they even placed an emphasis on the weapons they operate.

Let's say a country that has found the value of witchcraft on a different side.

The battle by the armies of both countries was antagonistic.

The Cane Army is attacking crossbows and baristas in front of each other.

If you show your face to the detour, you'll be shot instantly.

A corpse falling all over represented it.

Meanwhile, the Demon Qiao Army just repeats the shooting, and doesn't try to strike it out.

They don't let soldiers out of the fort and use their robust defenses to fight.

Seemed to give priority to reducing damage to his own army.

Apparently, they're waiting for the Cane Army to give up and withdraw.

"Is the Demon King going to intervene in this battle?

"No, I'm just gonna watch the game"

Just fine, so I'd like to make sure the Devil's Country moves.

Possible use of some kind of recruit weapon.

Either way, it won't hurt us.

"I'd like you to let me know if Grom cares too"

"Ha! I did!

While observing the battle, there was movement on the fort's side.

Make a heavy noise and the gate opens.

I felt a high-output magic reaction from there.

It is a difficult concentration and quantity in human mages.

What emerged from the gate was dozens of dimpled man-made metals.

A magic doll - a golem - that gave a simulated life to matter.

You can stretch magic all over the whole thing like a nerve and move it as if it were an organism.

It must have been produced by an operator in the fort.

It is a somewhat professional but convenient sorcery that can be produced with a variety of materials.

But the golem that emerged from the fort is different from what I know.

It was made with great precision from the outside.

Seems assembled from scratch for each part.

It's usually a bigger mess and is rarely generated instantly.

The Golem of Satsuku was coordinated as a weapon.

"Wow, that's a brilliant golem."

"Totally."

While we're in conversation, the golems start moving forward.

Ahead lies the Holy Staff Army.

I'm guessing the Magic Qiao Army intends to entrust melee combat to unmanned weapons.

It's a sensible measure that won't harm soldiers.

(But can we just deal with the golem?

See the state of war I marvel at the methods of warfare of the Magic Army.

It was common sense that Golem's behavior was dull and simple.

Leveraging its durability to advance it is commonly assumed to be a shield for the followers to wage the White Soldier War.

Sending in just the golem can't be a big threat.

All you have to do is be aware of attacks launched from tough power.

Furthermore, the golems, who had set off from the fort, had not even been brought with them weapons.

If that happens, I can only beat him up enough.

Could the Holy Staff Army unilaterally destroy it with witchcraft?

The sceptre army began to chant the trees on their backs.

They're going to destroy the golem at once before they can pack the distance.

So much less and the chant was done.

Flying out of the shade of a tree, the Holy Wand army projects magic on his cheeks at the same time.

The magic approaching the Golems was, however, played and misted on the verge.

It was hampered by the translucent barriers that occurred between them.

Grom, who witnessed it, pushes his open jaw up with his hand.

"Oh, that..."

"Defensive magic."

There wasn't a magician lurking somewhere.

It was exercised voluntarily by the Golems.

To see the magic move, it seemed to have a built-in surgical ceremony.

(It's a technology I've never heard of. Developed independently by Satsukuniku?

The Golems, who outwitted the sorcery, raise their arms at the same time.

Just in the direction of the Holy Staff Army.

At the next moment, a bullet was released from his fingertips along with a burst sound.
