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

The defense of Selman Castle and the Royalist avant-garde base was successful thanks to the cooperation of our Willidis forces.

Though it almost seems to be the Willidis Army's job, the Rivier-Kingdomist forces were responsible for the troublesome part of sweeping enemy infantry, excluding mechanical weapons.

From the front-line base, check for defensive success reports, and I'll take the Sparrow Liaison Boat directly to Selman Castle. It became a meeting with King Passé, who had been watched the defense battle.

"First, thank you for responding to my early reinforcement request, Marquis Tokitumo"

His Majesty King Passé was in a very good mood with all his excitement.

King Passé said he saw the armored units and air fleet of the Great Empire and once again threatened their forces. But the intervention of the Willidis forces repelled the Imperial Army, and the defense team saw the effect of that group of weapons to its end. The king remarked that the soldiers would also encourage more practice.

Simple AS fighters have been sent to the Rivier-Kingdoms, but I think it was a good stimulus to those crew members. If reports of the battle were delivered from the avant-garde base to Selman Castle, they would also add rocket launchers and other items to the purchase for tanks and against the golem.

At this meeting I received a request to purchase an airship, no, an airship when it comes to the Willidis formula, but also this. I will see Sheepang, I told the king that I would be able to arrange a few ships in no time.

Turn in the local generals and confirm the future policy of the Rivier-Kingdoms. Currently, Kings supporters scattered throughout the kingdom are rallying for Selman Castle. Prince Ganian, an imperialist who does not find that interesting, seems to have pointed his hand at the attack this time.

Shapeshifter Intelligence reports show that the Imperial faction is in the process of planning and executing an interdiction operation using the Norte Sea Yale River.

This interdiction operation will not materialise as long as control of the Norte Sea is secured and Fluff Island is in the Kingdom of Veriraldo. I won't let the imperialists poke me in the back. The Royalists will follow the army of Prince Ganian on the front and take control of the Kingdom of Riviere.

"Then again, the Great Empire garrison is the biggest obstacle."

General of the Rivier-Kingdom sect - said a gentleman named Asier.

"If we gather the power of the Royalists, we can fight the Imperials head-on in numbers, but without the power of the Great Empire," he said.

"The Western side of the Great Empire has lost much of its power in this defensive battle."

Even the western army was less reinforced than the eastern army. He lost a large number of golems and armor to ten valuable airships. It is no exaggeration to say that dispatched troops have suffered enormous damage beyond being dispersed on other fronts.

"So, Marquis Tokitumo. If you're going to slap the imperialists, does that mean now?

"... No, you can get ready, but I will fool you into thinking that we should refrain from moving now"

"What about that heart?

To King Passé's inquiry, I informed him of the movements of the Great Empire, including the Kingdom of Verilardo.

"The invasion of the kingdom of Veriraldo in the Great Empire is imminent. Therefore, the Empire cannot afford to turn its massive reinforcements to the Kingdom of Riviere until this matter is complete."

"So, what's more, we shouldn't act now?

While the ghost was gone - General Asier said - I shook my head to the side.

"The Royalists are also in the process of rallying their forces of war. If you hurry them without rest, you will fight with extra fatigue when fighting Prince Ganian's army. Even though the Imperial Dispatch's power is lacking, the Imperial Power is still there."

"Mmm, sure"

"Then there will be much blood between the people of the Kingdom of Riviere."

The people - to the word, the eyes of King Passe sharpen.

"Marquis Tokitumo, you are a man outside the kingdom. I guess we are therefore looking at this situation from a big perspective. If you have a plan, let me know."

"Yes, Your Majesty. The Kingdom of Riviere is now divided into three forces."

"Three...?

General Asier makes a strange face, but King Passé opened his mouth.

"The imperialists of Ganian, the kingdoms who follow me. And you're the ones who don't put it together and decide what to look like, right?

"You're right."

In civil unrest in the country, there are few forces of appearance. In addition to the rebellion, if that rebel side loses, it will be a rebel, or, as for the regime side, if the regime side is overthrown, it will still be a rebel.

Determine which side it is wise to join the war by determining how it goes.

They bet on the winner before they act, but it has to act before the victory is confirmed.

Because if cooperation on the winner's side is delayed, he may be bounced out of a key position on the grounds of tardiness, and as a less loyal person, he could rather be punished.

Therefore, the watch group focuses on which wins and the trend. Quite a few of them, too.

"Prince Ganian proceeded with the army from the front before a blockade using the Yale River in order to capture the watch group into his own army."

It would be better to give it to Prince Ganian, who has the mechanical weapon of the Great Empire - if the invasion had been successful, even if he could not drop Selman Castle or let King Passé escape, he would have called for the flow of the forces of view to the Imperialists.

"But the reality is that the kingdoms, united with the Kingdom of Verilardo, have won. This victory is likely to have a considerable effect on encouraging people to join the war as kingdoms, waiting for the watch group that was leaning toward the imperialists."

"Whoa......!

"If the Royalists become the majority, they will also show up who can get out of the Imperial. In that case, during His Majesty's triumph to come, I thought we would also reduce the bloodshed among the people of the kingdom"

"... after all, you are a shame to King Eman. This is what my kingdom wants."

It's an honor, Your Majesty.

Stop praising me like that, because I can illuminate you.

"But to do so, the Kingdom of Verilardo must completely stop the invasion of the Great Empire"

I emphasised.

"It is only when the Kingdom of Verilardo defeats the Great Empire that the Alliance will live. The result of this victory or defeat will be a determinant of which Riviere's watch group will be awarded."

"Um, to do that, I'd love for your country to break the empire."

King Passé nodded.

"I want you to support me and tell King Emmann that there is not much we can do in our country. If we spare no cooperation,"

"I will tell His Majesty's words, but also His Majesty Eman"

I bowed my head profoundly to the King of the Kingdom of Riviers.... Well, I'm done with my job here. Assign the Sixth Combat Regiment's Loss Replenishment and Extra Battle Power, and then focus on the Kingdom of Veriraldo's Defense Battle.

I also told King Passé and the others that the battle will largely shape the future battlefield.

"... Asier, have you seen it?

After the Marquis Gin Tokitomo left, King Passé addressed the General.

"Man, I've been thinking about the sacrifice of our people."

"The battle between the people...... exactly. The enemy is a people of the same country as us."

General Asier had a complex look on his face.

"... Prince Ganian is the son of His Majesty"

"It's common for royalty to kill each other when parents and children share blood."

King Passé said lonely.

"Kill each other inside.... I see, it is certainly better to sacrifice less"

"Ha..."

"I wonder what kind of man he is..."

To King Passé's whining, General Asier blinks.

"Mage, warrior. He manipulates the armies of mechanical weapons with his hands and feet, and is not only tactical, but also strategic… Is it true that a hero is such a man?"

"Eman doesn't have a body...... His Majesty is serious, trying to bring the Marquis of Tokitomo into our country...?

"Disagree? That's all he's attracted to."

To King Passé's words, General Asier smiled bitterly.

"Objection...... yes, much. If that Lord Jen joins His Majesty's Tabernacle, the kingdom will be stronger, but many will hang themselves with feelings of jealousy and envy.... including me"

"... I was going to give my daughter to the Marquis Tokitomo."

"Are you serious?

"Um, fine, I was serious"

To the king's remarks, General Asier finally laughed.

"Then I have to be more flexible in my thoughts. I still want to serve His Majesty's side."
