The Heir of the Dragon Emperor and his Bride Corps (WN)

─ ─ A few days later, in the southwest of Kittle Taiwanese territory ─

Troops coming from the Wang capital were diving near the woods.

They were an investigative force more densely placed than the Ten Wise Men.

The aim shall be to find the missing supply unit.

More than a dozen days ago, from the Wang capital, a supply unit loaded with food and booze left.

That's what brought us closer to Kittle Taiwanese territory, and we lost track of it.

The supply troops were carrying liquor and rice prepared by His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, for fear. The troops were accompanied to the Miyagi (cucumber) under His Majesty's command.

"Find the Missing Miyagis, Don't Choose Means"

"The Ten Wise Men," he said to the soldiers of the investigation unit.

That's why the soldiers from the investigation unit came to the 'Kittle Taiwanese Territory' disguised as bandits so that they could not identify themselves.

"We now head to the village at the south end of 'Kittle Taiwanese'. If there are any residents outside the village, capture them. We need to get the information out."

"" "Yes, yes!

"At any rate, we must find the missing Miyagi."

"But I have a problem. Captain."

One of the soldiers raised his hand.

"We don't know the faces or the looks of the Miyagis. I didn't even ask you how old you were."

"You just have to detain the villagers. I'll interrogate the villagers. Try not to come near me during interrogation. Okay?"

"" "… Yes" "

"Then we're going to the village of purpose more than this!

The captain gripped the horseless and told the soldiers.

The village you aspire to is on the edge of the 'Kittle Taichung Territory'.

Far from the castles and fortifications of the Taigoku family.

Even if this one attacks, it will take some time for the soldiers of 'Kittle Taiwanese' to realize it.

The time is almost dusk.

Even if the enemy forces move, they can escape in darkness.

There should be plenty of time to extract information from the prisoners.

"There are woods around the village. Some may be collecting or hunting. If there's a villager out there acting alone, capture him. Without them, we'll break into the village."

While hiding in the woods, the investigative unit moves towards the village.

Eventually, you will see the village surrounded by a fence.

The fence is surrounded by fields. Have the villagers finished their work today or are about to return to the village?

The soldiers of the investigation unit check the perimeter.

There is no appearance of enemy soldiers at all. "Kittle Taiwanese" sounds alert, and the captain giggles.

"No villagers seem to be hunting or collecting"

"You have no choice. Let's take the villagers. Keep hiding in the trees and approaching. Once we're through the woods, we're heading straight into the village."

The soldier's captain gives instructions.

"It's the village chief we're after. That would be the oldest. Taking women and children hostage is also a good idea. But don't kill me. It's all about getting information."

Copy that.

The soldiers of the investigation unit nod.

Slowly, they go between the trees.

Eventually, the forest runs out. It's just outside the village.

"─ What's that?

"─ What. Out of the woods, soldiers!?

"─ Yes, no. Bandits. Everybody, get inside the village!

The villagers noticed the soldiers.

They rush into the village simultaneously, covering the children.

However, the only protection of the village is the short fence. To that extent, I can jump over with a horse.

There are no 'Kittle Taiwanese' soldiers around.

Beyond the fence is the village square. No one has a weapon.

"All of you, keep going with me-- whoa!!

"" "Ohhhhh!!

At the captain's signal, the cavalry runs out towards the village.

"Target the village elders! That's probably the village chief! Pull out the information!

The captain was looking for the oldest man in the village.

A gray-haired old man stands in the square across the fence. Talking to the woman next door about something. I can see that women are frightened. Naturally. The cavalry is approaching the village.

Seeing the girl next to him, the captain opens his eyes.

Girl talking to a woman...... no, that's a toddler girl.

Though soldiers are approaching, they speak with dignity to women and village chiefs.

"How about that calm down...... no way!?

Definitely.

That's the 'noble lady' the captain was looking for.

"Take those girls away! Go...!

Troops go straight ahead. The only thing in front of them is the fence.

And when the soldiers ran through the fields and tried to reach the village...

- Enemy approaching! Soldier of my king. Get out!!

A young girl waved her arms and shouted.

Oh, no!

"Ahhh! Hey!!

A cavalry appeared across the fence.

"Hey, what's good? No!?

"" "" Hey, what the hell is that? Aaaaaaaaaa!?

Impossible.

Until just now, there should have been no soldiers or horses.

Everyone wears leather armor. Spears and shields in your hands. Vicious shapes.

Wherever you look at it, they're the bad bandits.

They're heading straight for the investigation unit.

Everyone is desperately running their horses as they raise the earthen smoke.

"And yet... that man in the lead... what an evil face..."

He's got his teeth out on the beard surface and his eyes are wide open.

What an evil look. Oh, don't believe in people like that - the captain snaps.

Maybe he's one of the bandits. Ten irresistible civilians are likely to be killed, that's the face.

I don't like just watching. Such a vicious looking guy must never be defeated.

When the captain shook his head, the enemy cavalry shook his head.

"Is that me or... Huh!?

The mirror shows me - the words come from behind the captain's brain.

I try to stop the horse unintentionally, but I can't make it.

The horse, who was fully ill, jumped straight in front of the fence.

All soldiers set up shields in case of a clash with the mirror.

I don't know why there's a mirror here, but if it's a mirror, you can crack it.

All the soldiers are wearing lightweight armor. If you protect your face with a shield, there shouldn't be much damage...

That's what I thought, right after the investigation unit jumped over the wooden fence.

"" 'Ahhh!

Awesome.

"" "Yeah, yeah, yeah!?

The mirror avoided it.

The mirror that reflected the soldiers became oblique and sent them forward.

The surface of the mirror no longer mirrors them.

It shows the face of the young girl who was in the village earlier.

With an angry look, he's tongued out at the soldiers. Next to it is a big 'hassle. Forward Caution' letter. All the soldiers were blinded by that appearance in the mirror.

So I didn't realize.

Beyond the mirror, countless stone walls rose.

"" 'Heyyyyyyyyyyy!!

"" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!?

The cavalry suddenly cannot stop.

Fortunately, the mirror was alert and slowed down. If I hadn't, I would have crashed into the stone walls at full speed.

The soldiers manage to land in front of the stone walls.

But on the impossible landing, the horse breaks his knee, and the shaken soldiers roll to the ground.

stone walls on the front and moving mirrors on the rear.

From beyond, I hear a soldier-like scream.

The investigation unit from Wang Du was completely surrounded.

"... No way. Everything in this village is a trap!?

Stone walls ahead. When I saw the dirt on it, I guess I was lying on the ground.

These are golems that look like walls. "Hey, hey, hey!" he dances, intimidating the soldiers.

There is a mirror wall on the back, reflecting the wounded soldiers.

The one who broke his arm when he fell. The one who screwed up his leg. who cannot move due to impact.

Soldiers panic to their reflection of themselves.

"Chi, no! We... yes, we just got lost in this village..."

The captain of the investigation unit shouted across the wall.

"There seems to be a misunderstanding! We are soldiers of the Demon Crusade."

"Don't bother!!

The stone wall moved.

A gap opened enough for a person to pass, and beyond it stood a woman and a young girl.

The woman looked different just now.

He wears iron armor and has a sword in his hand.

There are fully armed soldiers around. Soldiers fly the 'Kittle Taishou' flag.

You know, having that means...

"My name is' Kittle Taiwanese ', my second daughter, Lanes-Kittle! You tried to attack the village where the inhabitants lived before my eyes! The sin is obvious!!

"Whew. Lanes-Kittle, you say!?

The captain also knows the names of the three "Kittle Taiwanese" sisters.

The fact that the second daughter is here...

"... had our operation been spotted...?

Cold sweat conveys the back of the captain of the investigation unit.

Looking at his face, Princess Raines raises her voice.

"Due to the power of my sister's allies, I had completely grasped where you were. Wow, we have invisible scout walls!!

"Mr. Raines. It's too much screaming. Water, please."

A young girl next to Princess Lanes offers a water bottle.

The young girl shakes her long, winged hair and laughs.

On that "do it" face, I realize it's not that person she was looking for (...).

"─ They did (...)"

Everything was in their hands.

It was read that we would attack this village furthest from the fort. Even this movement was known.

Otherwise, Princess Raines and the soldiers couldn't be here.

"I'm jealous of The King of the Borders."

Princess Raines pounded and snapped.

"A wise man like you is attached to me as a military teacher. It's hard to think of an operation like this."

"That's it. My king thought the same thing about you."

"Really?

"I'm losing confidence because of my king...... are you a child you don't want? Is Prim a child you don't want?"

"Even though I was planted with trauma in The King of the Borders."

Princess Raines sighs in front of a toddler who drops her shoulders.

Then look at the captains.

"I... I've done my best."

Revealed the expression of anger, proclaimed.

"When they asked me about this operation, I found out so much. I also found it in action. I'm still frightened. Had it not been for you, I would not have fought with 'hey'!!

"... that princess... are you scared?

As I noticed something, the captain of the investigation unit snapped.

"... I see. You mean the princess in the deep window?"

For Princess Raines, how terrible was this operation to decoy herself.

I'm still shivering at that evidence as I (...) look at the soldiers.

Then there must be a gap to be followed.

"I tell the second daughter of the 'Kittle Taiwanese', Laines-Kittle!

The captain of the investigation unit raised his voice.

"As you can see, we are an investigative force that has come under close orders from the King's Capital!

"Ha, captain!?

"Don't you dare say that!

The soldiers under my command make a scene.

But the captain spoke soberly,

"... look closely. That princess would be shivering with a blue face, looking at us, wouldn't she? Even though he leads soldiers, he's still a young girl. They're scared of us. Put it in there."

"... What do you mean, follow in? Captain."

"... well, watch"

After speaking in a low voice, the captain turns to Princess Lanes.

"Our mission is an important one, and no matter what we see, we cannot speak. Interrogation would be a waste of time. We choose death over cracking our mouths."

"Hey, what are you trying to say?

"I want a ride with Princess Raines. If you ever lose to a princess, let me tell you all about the secret life, the purpose, and the circumstances of the king's capital!

Princess Raines did not kill the investigation unit. That's because I want information.

And the princess is surrounded by soldiers from the 'Kittle Taiwanese'. In front of soldiers, you can't do anything unusual.

If you say it's a chance to get information but you run away from a single hit, you lose faith from the soldiers. It will do some damage.

If you get one hit, you have a chance too.

Or something to beat such a frightened little girl?

"If I win, you let yourself and your men get away with it. What shall we do?"

"Oh, yeah. Okay."

"... Huh?

"One hit? Mm-hmm. Then you're not afraid. Come here, then. Go where Hay isn't."

To the point of losing the clap, lightly, Princess Raines accepted a single hit.

Invite the captain of the investigation unit to move to the square.

"Enemy soldiers. Use the sword we have prepared. Don't be unfair."

"It's useless. Princess."

The captain shook his head to the side and set up his own sword.

"A warrior deposits his life in a sword he's used to using. I hope you don't have to worry."

"Right. Then I can't help it!!

Princess Raines stepped forward with her sword in her hand, turning her shoulder around.

Seeing that confident look, the soldier's captain's face turns blue.

Something was wrong.

Princess Raines should have trembled just now.

Yet now I'm settling down.

"I've been under a lot of stress lately! Let it dissipate here!!

Princess Raines runs out.

The captain waves his sword reflexively.

The sword of Princess Raines and the captain's sword clashed...

"Huh?"

Pfft.

The captain's sword broke.

Half-length.

"... Huh? Yep, yep, eh!?

"Hehe. Ha-ha-ha. You guys are the reason I started this operation. Ahhh!!

Shh.

The captain's sword is even halved.

I didn't break it. Slashed.

The captain's sword was amputated by an unusually strong sword (...).

"... hey!?

"Heh heh heh. Heh heh. Ha ha ha! I'm not scared of a single hit. I'm not scared! Draw information from your Lord and return to the King of the Borders!!

"Oh, wait. Princess Raines, you must have been scared..."

"I'm not scared if I can't see the walls!

"Hi-ha-ha-ha-ha!

"Think of the wrath of the 'Kittle Taiwanese' second daughter, Laines-Kittle!!

And so...

The furious swordsmanship of Princess Raines made the captain of the Special Forces a mess.

After that, though I resisted for a while...

"... talk. I will speak. After The Ten Wise Men searched for His Majesty... plan to invade the 'Kittle Taiwanese'..."

─ ─ He started talking to Princess Lanes, little by little, about what he knew.
