"I'm sorry, both of you, don't bother--"

"No, it's a ship."

"Never mind."

And then, Rouin says, putting it on the plum.

"Lord Plum, let me add that once Prince Lattie is banished, he probably won't be able to return to Alcard anymore." Therefore, even if you sacrifice yourself, it will be difficult for you to achieve the desired result-- "

"Um--why? Rouin-san"

The question of the plum was also a question for everyone.

Everyone silently listens to Rouin's words ahead of them.

“Unfortunately, His Majesty the King will soon lose his kingdom.”

"Eh...!? Why...? Is my father seriously ill...? Or is there an assassination plot...?"

“No, because we have to leave nature and our position. I can't say that there was no such thing as sending assassins to the kingpin of a power as Carraria and trying to break into it. As soon as the situation has settled down, His Majesty must seek forgiveness from Carraria and try to improve the relationship. This will require a fair attitude on the part of our nation - at the very least, His Majesty the King will abdicate, taking responsibility for what happened.”

"......! Of course, that's true - I'm sorry about Carraria......"

“If you don't succeed, you may be subject to various conditions, such as His Majesty the King's self-determination, territorial devolution, and enormous compensation. To avoid that, we need to move quickly and apologize from our side. Rather, it is possible that Rickrea's liberation has already been offered to Carraria.”

"... ahh, the sooner the better."

"Under these circumstances, if Prince Latti were to be banished from the country, who would obey the king's command to cease to be king, even if His Majesty were to attempt to bring Prince Latti back upon his departure?" If Prince Windsor refuses to do so and bombards His Majesty the King - everyone around him is afraid of being attacked by Carraria for lack of sincerity while things are going on. In other words, they will take the side of Prince Windsor, ignoring the king's intentions and forcing him to abdicate. That's the safest thing to do. Do you understand? Leaving the country now means relinquishing your royal authority over the future and breaking up with Lord Plumb. I don't really recommend it. ”

"--Okay, Rouin." It's been a long day here. You got it, Plum. "

"I-I see...!" I'm sorry--- I won't say anymore...! "

Pram said that with a serious expression and nodded strongly.

"In addition, my opinion is a combination of Inglise-kun's current status before leaving here." She was expecting such a request. ”

"Hahaha-- he really doesn't know." How far can you see - did you say anything else? "

"Yes, a temporary retreat here is synonymous with total defeat." Since the opponent is the best chance to come here, we should settle which one will succeed the throne. "

Leone nodded at Ingris's words.

"... I've always been right about Inglise at a time like this." That means we can do it, right? "

"I have to answer for trust... but our strength is limited to us and a handful of Knights - we can't help but be overwhelmed."

"Yes. We have to do it...!" But I told Inglise we'd beat them all up, but that's not possible with our arms. That's why you have to be prepared-- "

In other words, they were prepared to go to war.

It's not like I've never fought a human being before.

I've never fought a full-fledged army before.

"... honestly, I feel more comfortable fighting the Demon Stone Beast... but I won't let out a soft sound." If it's the only way, then it's the only way. ”

Looking at Leone and Riesellotte nodding at each other reliably, Rouin asks the emissary knight.

"Have you checked the equipment of the enemy unit I was asking for?" How many armored birds (fly gears) and armored birds (fly gear ports) do you keep...? "

“It was a small number. I think we only have enough for scouting and transporting supplies.”

"I see...! Then you can't airlift all your troops, so you're going to march on the ground...!"

Yes, armored birds (flygear) and armored birds (flygearport) are the main marching aids on the ground ─

"Okay, that's it...! Then we can hit that solution..."

Rouin nodded hard.

"Solution...!? Is there something, Rouin!?"

"Yes, we have a meeting with Inglise - we have gained a common understanding that we should strike with reckless measures, such as a head-on breakthrough with a large number of unstoppable people."

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He The one who can't do anything is breaking through the front....."

"On that point, Inglise, I was wondering if I could interpret your presence as a solution in itself."

Rouin asserted so with a serious look on his face.

"Haha... the more you say it, the better."

I admire the rhetoric.

I mean, she's beyond the boundaries of the individual.

Well, that's right--that's the only way to interpret it.

Is that the plan we talked to Inglis about? Is that something we can do?

Plum asks Rouin.

"Of course, Lord Plumb." Inglise is like the power of power, and the mind is very clear. Instead of being able to help us in person, the Prime Minister of one country, the military master, he left us with good wisdom. Be sure to overturn the unstoppable situation in large numbers. ”

Rouin said that and spread a map on the table describing what was happening nearby.

“We'll be ready immediately, and we'll deploy here and wait for the enemy forces. This is the place."

It is a long canyon from east to west, and a bridge over it, a little south of this camp. The map shows that both the north and south sides of the bridge are forested on the side of the road.

Rouin ordered the forest to the north of the bridge.

Just after the bridge, as far as the enemy is concerned.

"The bridge in Leara Canyon...?" If it's a bridge, you won't be able to cross a lot of enemy soldiers - so you're going to launch an ambush there? "

"No? I will greet you with dignity." However, there will be some disguises - I will explain them in more detail. If the enemy forces pass by here, no solution will be found, and it will be a battle against time. After the explanation, act immediately - and then, Mr. Leone, Mr. Riesellotte... I will ask you to use your force in the end, even if you have a plan. Thank you very much. "

Got it ~!

"Yes, I understand...!"

Then, after the operation meeting, Leone and the others hurried to prepare...

"After all, what I always do is the same...!?"

With all his strength, Leone pierced the tail of the dragon with the black sword's magic weapon (artifact).

It was the usual task that had been repeated from time to time since the creation of this Ricklea camp - cutting out the dragon's flesh.

Even today, a serious Leone who didn't take her hands off at a time like this, was moving her hands while sweating.

"I can't help it...!" It's something that needs to be done-- "

Liselotte was also sweating.

"I know, but... you really like the tail of this dragon, eating it, making weapons, and using it for operations again..."

"You said it would help with injuries and illness...?" But I like this dragon's tail, too. Thanks to the meat cutting work that we continued to do, our magic weapons (artifacts) were also strengthened. "

Dragon Power, Dragon Rational Power (Dragon Loa) ─ ─

It was because they continued to cut a lot of dragon flesh that they lived in the two magic marks (artifacts). The Dragon Rational Force (Dragon Loa) was stained with the weapon.

In the case of Inglis, she kept eating an unusual amount of meat, and she absorbed the dragon's power (dragon's roar) into herself.

"That's right. That was good training, though." This is the end, we have to do our best...! "

"Yes, everyone is helping me this time, and I'm going to go faster than usual...!"

It's not just the two of us who do the work of cutting the meat out of the tail of the dragon.

Lati, Plum, the Knights, the residents. It was a total mobilization.

"Everyone, hurry up! As soon as we're done, we'll get the tail out!"

"" Oh, oh, oh, oh! ""

Many people respond to Rouin's orders.

The work was almost finished, and the tail of the giant dragon, which had swallowed the flesh inside, was transported to the bridge of the Riala Gorge, where Rouin had indicated that it was the place to intercept.
