The hero magician wants to relax. He was too active and targeted for his life, so we'll start over.

Count Valiere territory. It is in the western part of the Kingdom of Verilardo, where advance troops dispatched by the Willidis army are now stationed.

When it comes to why it is Count Valiere territory, the reason is simple. Because it's Marcus' home that serves me. At the end of last year in Gotagota with bandits such as Feieble, the Valiere family, with the help of our Willidis forces, are convinced to keep Marcus under my command and have a friendly relationship.

Above all, in one of those Gotagota cases, I had eyes on the Willidis weapon, so it's big that this one stationed didn't cause a major disturbance.

The abandoned fort Duré, once rooted by Fieble, had been newly redesigned. It was the task of the advance party to make great use of the power of this architectural core and remodel it in the short term.

External walls were greatly expanded on the outside, and a squadron of TF-3 Trovaon fighter attackers, Wasp I general-purpose helicopters and Equus infantry combat vehicles were placed on the property.

I followed the instructions of Fort Duré's control to float and descend the fuselage into the landing area. The conductor takes the green and red signal lights and guides me. Well, if I leave it to the navigation, I can get off automatically, but I'd rather do it myself than hold the joystick as a pilot.

Safe, landing. When I open the cockpit canopy, the mechanic will ladder me. The fuselage inspection process just started, but I turned my face to the person I was holding back.

"Long time no see, Marcus."

"My lord."

Marcus stretched his spine and lowered his head. I graduated from Actis School of Magic Knights for six months. Originally something that still can't get rid of the new American smell, but he's already a knight at one end and his strength outweighs that of a lined warrior. And it holds the title of the only aviation magic knight in the kingdom.

"What do you say, this way?

"Yes, it fully functions as an aviation hub when it became a battle in the western part of the kingdom"

The new Fort Duré - formerly the property of the Valiere family. Use this as a base for western defense.

Count Valiere territory is the western part of the kingdom, but an inland territory away from the Yale River. But if the front line were to be broken and invaded the kingdom capital, there was a good chance that it would pass through here, and it could never be a safe land.

That is why the Valiere family was in favour of strengthening and locating their defensive forces, providing us with a place.

Well, being based somewhere in the western region is also a royal fate, so sooner or later a base was created somewhere.

"So, how is Mr. Lasse?

"Yes, my brother, he is doing well with his fathers. … Your Excellency, thank you for listening to the selfishness of the Valiere family"

"What, they offered me land. Forgive the invasion of the enemy, and your house will be in danger. There's nothing like a little force."

I was the one who accepted the offer of Fort Duré in exchange for the consultation from the Valiere family on their desire to introduce weapons made by Willidis.

Thank God I'm the one who can do the reserve. So in a small number of cases, Willidis weapons were brought into this territory and sent to Marcus and his squadron for training.... He wasn't on the front line here recently, also because he was here.

"So to speak, the West will be busy at last."

Are you talking about the military alliance with the Kingdom of Riviere?

Marcus said thoughtfully. However, even though he knows that there seems to be a discussion about such an alliance as well, he shouldn't even know the details.

"Oh, our king, His Majesty, has been decided. Give Riviere some help. I'm headed to a neighboring country to sign an alliance."

"I'll give you."

"No, it doesn't extend to that"

I waved small.

"It seems that King Passé, who is about to form our alliance, is now being pursued by the imperialists. As a messenger, I meet him and make alliances. Then the Royal Veliraldo Army will be able to move, so it's time for you to show up."

"No way, are you going to be on your way alone?

"I have an SS agent. I'm not entirely alone."

Shapeshifter operatives active on the ground are now exploring trends in kings and imperialists.

"I'll call you if anything happens, then please"

"Understood."

Marcus replies of seriousness itself. I took the letter out of storage.

"What's that?

"What do you think?

"Is this a letter from His Majesty the King?

"Correct.... what, didn't you think of a love letter or something from my dear Kroja?

"Love letter!?

Marcus is surprised. Marcus the Magic Knight and Kroja, a former maid with Sakilis. The fact that the two of them are dating is a famous story in Willidis.... It's easier to understand the reaction when you take it to the sex side. It's worth the tease.

"I'm away from Willidis, but is the relationship progressing?

"Progress, is it... well, I thought it was going well. I see him once a week on holiday."

"That's fine. I'll back you up."

"Thank you......"

Marcus nodded, but his expression didn't clear.

"What's up?

"No......"

He said, "I'm worried about you."

Well, I have an idea. Daimyo, it would be about the love of different statuses. No matter how both our thoughts may be, Marcus is a house of nobility and Croix is a common man. The Count family, Marcus's home, will not approve of this relationship.

As far as I'm concerned, if I like it, it doesn't matter who I am, but this is a common man's view of love in modern times. There are also problems in the aristocratic society that cannot be done by the person alone.

I just want to think about it, but unfortunately, right now, I can't afford that much. Aerial reconnaissance team intelligence suggests it's only a matter of time, even though King Passé and the others have not yet been caught up by the imperialists. It doesn't make sense if I don't make it.

"Let me get the messenger out of the fort and deliver His Majesty King Eman's writ to the Earl of Balm. It says what will happen in the West from now on and how it should move"

"I'll take care of it"

Marcus got a letter from me. I take a glimpse of the sun leaning west.

"Okay, I'm going local. I'll take care of the rest."

"Yes, my lord"

While we were talking, we finished inspecting Trovaon. I'm going back to the love machine, to the cockpit.

After being dropped off by Marcus and SS mechanics, Trovaon jumped up into the sky again. Aim west - eastern Riviere Kingdom. Through the plains and woods beneath your eyes, and after a while you can see the huge Yale River flowing from right to left in your sight.

I raised altitude and crossed the river. Yes, we have crossed the border of our neighbor, the Kingdom of Riviere.
