The Grand Prince Has Run Away

Troops to advance to the new continent have begun to gather in the Kingdom of Bastein. After moving by rail, they are stationed in pre-prepared barracks and forts, waiting only for the day of their deployment, such as basic training and landing training.

Planning went on without too much effort with a short preparation time of 3 months. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience during Operation First Invasion, and many facilities and transportation networks are already in place for the deployment.

Moreover, Infinitus was near Kronos, the final destination at the time of the First Invasion. Thanks to this, the existing paved roads were also available, so progress was expected to be very fast.

It was a continental defensive battle, if you ask me.

Much of the experienced troops were missing and the defenses at Polkin Gateway and the front of the Metheria River were somewhat unsettled.

However, unlike the previous invasion, the human army now included a large army of Orc warriors. Seeing that one Orc Warrior contributes to three well-trained soldiers, I thought it would be quite helpful.

In addition, there were other forces on the continent, in addition to the human army. The vigilantes were in charge of local defence. Although he is from a normal people, he has been dealing with a lot of magic while experiencing the age of destruction, so he thought he would do his part in an emergency.

Phew.

The iron horse is approaching with a horn. The railroad horse slowly stops as it reaches the station, and soon it starts vomiting the Yosrahim Knights. Knights to join the invasion force. They watched as they were amazed at the sea for the first time, a beach for a short while, and each one was assigned a command.

I went to my accommodation.

And finally, Old Cloud is getting off with tons of acolytes.

I was just on my way out to meet my grandfather.

“Grandpa's here. ”

Grandpa smiled and slowly approached me.

“You said you got scratched again. ”

I frowned immediately.

“No, where else did you hear that rumor? ”

“It's your rumor, doesn't the world care? You're a celebrity.”

It was understandable. Although all of humanity is now working together to overcome the age of destruction, no one knows what will happen after that.

Especially since I have powerful power and I've destroyed several countries before, I was number one on the watch list.

I was being watched by every country's information network, and I didn't have personal privacy.

“But you should be interested in other people's family history. How rude of you. ”

I looked at old man Cloud.

“Anyway, be well. ”

“What?”

“Aren't you embarrassing all the men in the world? · · · · · · · · If it's not enough. Tsk tsk tsk.”

“What can't I do? Seeing as how I'm such a character, I'm taking women's jealousy for granted. ”

“What an excuse. ”

“Never mind. Grandpa, get married. ”

Grandpa Cloud looks very uncomfortable.

“What am I talking about? ”

“If your body and mind are clear, don't you think you should get married? Don't be like that. Bring in the new hag and have fun. I'm just saying, okay, I'm worried that if you keep that up, it's gonna rot. ”

“This guy? ”

I snorted.

“People who don't have to get married are supposed to give their boats to someone else's family. ”

“Inum, do you know how many women this old man has carried in his childhood? It's because I didn't speak, thousands of descendants have branched under me. ”

Grandpa Cloud gives you a big shout as to whether you believe in corners. It's true that Grandpa has caused the Cloud family a great deal. When you go to Cloud Territory, your grandfather's children come out in the trucks.

“Then what are you doing? It's a Poison Workshop now.He's not some saint of purity, and what a palace this is. ”

Grandpa Cloud stared at me with a strange smile.

“But I got something else. ”

“What? Swordsmanship? ”

“No.”

“Then what is it? ”

Old Cloud looks around and says it quietly.

“All but the girl. Freedom, comfort, real life and quiet work. I have gained so much more than I can count. ”

At that moment, I lost my words. In fact, all that old Cloud got was what I had before I got the girl. I lost everything by getting a woman.

Maybe that's why I'm trying to avoid a poltergeist marriage. in order to somehow capture the romance of the lost bachelor.

“Tsk.”

Old Cloud looks up at the distant sky.

“Do you know why God takes away memories from the revolting man? I know who I've done it with, so I'll take it from you. Life is never easy to live with just one responsibility at a time. ”

“Then who's remarrying? ”

“Humans are also forgetful animals. The mechanism of chaos is so frightening. However, as soon as this principle of creation deviates, human beings can gain true freedom. ”

“Hmph. Humanity will perish instead. ”

It wasn't wrong. The day all men turn away from women and seek true freedom, humanity must perish. Perhaps this destruction will be more frightening and desperate than the current era of destruction. Humanity can now hold on to the hope of overcoming destruction, but humans can never overcome it.

Because there isn't.

I really didn't have a choice then.

Because the scourge of destruction is humanity's responsibility to overcome destruction.

Maybe Infinitus isn't such a threat. The ones who truly threatened the honor of humanity were like Old Cloud.

“No. I will never perish. ”

“Why?”

“Having you around. If you can't control the chaos and increase your offspring indefinitely, I will be able to find true freedom without worrying about mankind. So work harder for me. Hehe.”

“Never mind.”

Old Cloud smiling walks away to his glutes overlooking the coast.

“How's the New World planning coming along, by the way? ”

“Attack plan? Where is that? ”

Grandpa looked back at me.

“Nothing? Why? ”

“You did it during the first raid. ”

“That's it, isn't it? But the plan of attack has to be different. Things are different now and then. ”

Clearly, the plan for the attack is different. The goal was Chronos in the first wave of the siege, and now Infinitus.

“That's why you run. ”

“You said no?”

“There was a plan, and now there's no plan. Then it's something else. ”

Old Cloud wipes his face.

“Now is not the time to joke. ”

“I'm not kidding, either. ”

“Then why the sudden attack? ”

I stared at old man Cloud.

“It's for the best. ”

“The best?”

“Yes. This siege is about breaking through and beating Infinitus. It's a strategy. It's a plan. It's a plan. ”

There were 1.5 million troops to mobilize this time. Double-supply and administrative proceedings have left many of us in battle, but it is truly a great army.

But that was it. There are many more. Several hundreds of thousands of times more severe, replenishing power consumed immediately.

In this situation, there is no strategy. It's always a matter of running.

“Then?”

“Yes. Before all the magic on the New World gets in our way, let's not think about anything else. Of course, the problem is the first line commander solves it with a defensive response. ”

Old Cloud frowns.

“If we fail, we'll all die. ”

“It doesn't matter. If it fails, the entire human race dies. That's why we're charging in with the highest probability of victory. ”

Grandpa Cloud said he tasted it.

No matter how subtle the strategy, it didn't all fit. And when the battle started, most of the plans were abandoned because they didn't fit into reality, and war was a human thing, so there was no way that there were no variables.

It was also a good choice to fill in the strategic factors, both with hazards and with short-term adaptations.

Especially this battle.

If I dragged time, I would have been surrounded by magic and killed everyone, but I was better off running back and forth.

“That would be a dangerous battle. ”

“Yes.”

But it also didn't matter. If you die, if you die, if you kill Infinitus one day, that's it.

I thought that no matter how many times I died, Gear would snap Infinitus' neck.

Then a knight came running to us.

“Only the Grand Duke is in trouble! ”

I looked at the knight in front of us.

“What's going on? ”

“Reports are coming in that the magic attack has begun at Polkin Gateway. ”

Apparently, a new Jord was born. It was quicker than I thought, but not at all unexpected, so I didn't mind.

“Got it. Go back. ”

“Yes.”

When the knight returns, Old Cloud approaches me.

“Are you sure you're okay?”

“It's going to be okay. ”

“But didn't you pull all the major power back here? ”

Nowadays, the buoyancy, horsepower, and armored troops were mostly here or here. Of course, Polkin Gateway's defenses were weakened.

But Polkin Gateway survived for a long time in its past life. With no weapons changing, no back-up. Although it is said to have lost its power, the modern Mado weapon system is more powerful than it has ever been, so it was thought to hold out well this time.

Moreover, Polkin Gateway was not the old Polkin Gateway. Further augmented walls have been elevated, and there have been so many camouflages placed that they are incomparable to their previous lives.

And modern humans had mass-production, professional training institutes. Shortage of air power and armored power is quickly replenished.

“Don't worry. Soon it will be filled.”

Then the waves of magic began again. Beginning with the Battle of Polkin Gateway, flying objects were constantly flying into the continent, and attacks on the Great Wall of Metheria began.

Humanity, however, managed to prevent the violence of the magical objects while preparing for the New World invasion.

The two commanders who now defend the Prosia continent were King Bastein, once known as the greatest disturbance of all time, and Earl Mihart, a decorated member of my defenses.

I thought that even if the horses were constantly swarming, they wouldn't be easily pierced.

And if you think about the Invasion of the Magical Water Mass differently, it could also be a blessing. Since the Old World is full of monsters, there will be fewer monsters in the New World.

This will increase the success rate of the invasion force by that much.

In the meantime, good news came to the human army. A new coalition of two empty ships was built by the Savannah forces. Although it had to be tested for a significant period of time to ensure reliability, it was able to get directly into the front line in a hurry to achieve some rear stability.

And today, humanity is rapidly expanding its buoyancy production facility. The number of buoys has already begun to build in three production facilities, so it is clear that the number of buoys will soon increase.

* * *

By spring, the invaders had all finished preparing for battle. The ship had already flown endlessly with troops and equipment in the harbor, and the last training floats and horsepower aircraft above the sky were beautifully embroidered.

Standing on a coastal hill, I looked at a giant ship floating on the sea with a very satisfied face.

Magic Lander.

The ship, which has only a wide and flat deck, is unarmed, but has provided a very groundbreaking turning point before the invasion. This makes it easy to transport the foster kids to the New World.

Supporting has the advantage of being able to float and lower easily from anywhere, although the essence consumption is much greater than a magical fighter. In other words, it was very easy to transport supplies and manpower. Moreover, it was possible to block incoming magic at a certain point, and it was easy to move wounded soldiers from a distance to the rear.

It was treatable.

‘The apocalypse is coming, and it's advancing really fast. ’

It wasn't just a magical landing ship. Today, mankind has been developing many new weapons that amaze me in unison.

Especially the giant chaos bomb was no joke. This bomb was about the size of a full-grown tree, and as soon as it exploded, a few kilometers of it flew away.

This is a great weapon, because it can kill a large horde of magic with a single blow.
