The Marquis’ Eldest Son’s Lascivious Story

Late in the evening of August 14, countless balls of light illuminated the land of Ryschleaf. You will never fall asleep in the battle between the Kuordenze and the Spiazek armies. From time to time, the fierce sounds of battle echoed over the summer nights.

The Spiazeik faction is situated at a distance from Ryishleaf Castle. It was an expression of the will to recapture.

It's already been three days since Qualdenze Gulfis developed magic dysfunction. Although the first onset tends to be prolonged, it is not absolute. Sometimes it takes half a day to come back to life, sometimes a month or more. Either way, it's not a strange situation to be recovering at any time.

The upper echelons of the Spiazeik army were holding discussions to recapture the Ryishleaf as soon as possible.

That was exactly when the message came in.

It's an ambush from the Kuordenze army!

Listening to the first voice, Spiazek's ancestor, Spiazek Kindlore, had a sharp gaze.

The message was a surprise attack on the "Quoldenze Army", not the "Galfis Army" that was hanging out at Ryshleaf Castle.

"After all, you're here...!"

It is clear that the incoming Wilk will rush to Ryschleaf now that Galphis is lying down and Luke is absent. It was naturally anticipated within the Spiazek army that it would be likely to be a small force of elites.

"Is Teshima in motion?" Prune the kid's head. "

Tsuruga is the name of the special forces present in the Shpiazeik Army. A unit with a high degree of secrecy or public inactivity.

When the Garfis forces pull out of the front lines, Kindloa immediately calls on Othelloria to deploy them. Tsuneko was now lurking outside of Qoldenze with the secret life of assassinating Wilk.

However, the message continued to report loudly that it would cut off Kindor's expectations.

"The Quoldenze army is assaulting the city of Docellaran this evening!!" Lots of enemy ancestors!! We are at a disadvantage!! "

All the knights, martial arts officers, and Kindorois on the spot were speechless for a moment.

The city of Docellaran is located in the northern part of Voistra. It was located in the southeast of the northern boundary. The northern part of the country is adjacent to the outskirts of the Kuordenze region, but it does not fall within this category.

"Dosellan!? Isn't that a mistake!?"

One of the warlords spoke up. In common sense, it is not a city that is suddenly attacked by the Qoldenze army, so it is a natural question.

No, there's no mistake.

The voice was answered by the man, the knight Docellan. He is the lord of the city of Docellaran, but this time he is participating in Operation Recapture of the Rishleaf on his own orders.

And the martial artist who served as the preacher was a person belonging to the Knights of Docellan and was related to the Docellan family. Of course, the knight Dosellan remembers his face. Sadly, he knew best in this room that the testimony was true.

"Keep reporting."

The words of the knight Dosellan revived the sense of nervousness around him.

"... haha! Due to the scale of intimidation against the city, we have decided that it is mainly a unit of the Lord's ancestors!" The number of enemy troops is about 3,000, but we have a very high percentage of ancestors! "

If you look closely, the messenger's equipment was worn out and he was injured everywhere. It's easy to tell when you've been struck by attack magic many times.

He himself understood that it would be a message that everyone would be suspicious of hearing. Some say that correct communication requires direct communication that does not involve passing on information to others. That's why he flogged his painful body, squeezed his magic power to the limit, and ran to the frontline Ryschleaf.

"...... No way, did you cross Amelia?"

A martial artist muttered. The voice was full of confusion, but it seemed that many martial arts officers were thinking the same thing, and they continued to speak as if another person would supplement them.

"There are no reports that the mountain roads in the north have been cleared. If so, we shouldn't think of it as crossing the river after all....."

The mountain-crossing route north of the Voistra Plains is now covered with a strong vigilance net. A large number of troops have been mobilized to support the rear of Tsushima. So if we had a force to break through, we would have gotten a message from you first.

In addition, as a theory in the first place, there is no advantage in attacking the city of Docellaran at this time. It's too unreasonable to suddenly target a city in the southeast of the North. If I succeeded in crossing the mountain, I would rather aim at the ass of the Spiazek army, who was obsessed with the Ryishleaf attack.

Considering them, it was reasonable to conclude that the Kuordenze troops had invaded across the Amelia River, not the mountain pass.

But can we cross the river?

We are constantly on the alert for crossing the river from Kuordenze territory. Strong forts are built at points where large armies can land, so it is not easy to break through. As with the mountain roads, if there had been battles in the coastal areas, you would have sent a message first.

"...... Ark Noah?"

It is the voice of the knight Docellan. And they that are there shall take it, and put it upon them, and come unto the same answer.

"If you think about it, Arkonian forcible breakthrough by a few elites composed only of the main ancestor and the ancestor......"

The slave ancestors' armies are the only ones left to cross the ground. Therefore, the answer was correct, but at the same time it was incorrect.

We break through the contaminated areas with elite and ambush them. This is only a "theoretical possibility". When you actually get to the stage of thinking about the plan, there will be a number of challenges, and the execution will be judged to be unrealistic.

"That kid is doing the same thing in Nambonan at the beginning of the year." If you were elite, did you see that you could break through the clay? "

It was Kindoroa who narrowed down his hateful voice. The grudges that took away my grandson in Nambonan City are now resurfacing in my head.

"It's hard to believe that Amelia Alknor has crossed the border....."

But Dosellan is under attack.

"If you think you've broken through the Arkunoa contaminated area......"

The human gaze of the scene naturally gathered on a young martial artist.

"... if so, what happened to Vuadberg?"

The closest city to the Arknowa contaminated area is the city of Vaudberg. The city of Docellaran is located just northwest of the city of Vaardberg.

“If you really crossed Alknor, you would have been attacked before Docellaran.”

The knight Veardberg's son was present at this discussion. As the incoming head of the Vuadberg family, he replaces his elderly father and leads his soldiers in a battle to recapture the Rieshleaf.

Asked for his opinion, he opened his mouth with a stiff expression on his face.

"Since we brought Veldberg's main force here, the city has only about…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. I don't think I'll be able to withstand an elite attack, including my ancestors. If the enemy is attacking Docellan right now, my father...... the knight Veldberg......"

The city of Vuadberg may have fallen into the hands of the enemy shortly after the message, he said. The air in the field is even heavier, only because of the unreported bad news.

"I see. You recruited a Civil Guard in Vaardberg and turned it into a Docellaran assault." If we gather from towns and villages along the way, our soldiers should be less than 3,000... "

The martial artist dares to calmly develop his reasoning by arranging his words calmly. I thought it would be rather rude to talk about consolation here.

The northern part of the Voistra Plains is developing on average, so large towns and villages are dotted around. If we can strike well, we can secure our soldiers for now. It would be a rough squad that would walk the peasants in their own clothes.

"We will break through the earth with only a few elite ancestors, including the main ancestor and the ancestor's ancestor, and move forward while procuring soldiers locally." Maybe that's the basic policy. ”

As soon as the story of the martial artist was finished, the attention of the knight Dosellan gathered again. He understood the meaning.

"There's a thousand soldiers left in Docellan."

Like the city of Vuadberg, the city of Docellaran has also committed most of its soldiers to the battle to recapture the Rishleaf. It was common to many cities in the north and east of the Voistra Plain.

"I know, but I dare to say it. There are no soldiers left in the north and east."

The knights in charge of the North and East agree with Knight Docellaran.

But we can't move west and south.

Meanwhile, the western and southern cities of the Voistra Plains have not sent many conscripts to the front lines. Because if a large number of people disappear from those areas, the nobility of Spiazek, based in the mountainous areas of the west, and the independent nobility of the south may not be good.

This is the result of the failure of Operation Wheat and Sickle, a major counter-attack against the Qordenze family. House Spiazeke's centripetal power is greatly diminished.

"In any case, it is difficult for the main ancestral army to hold on to the city alone." I don't think Dosellan or the rest of his forces will be able to buy us that much time. It is better to think that it has already fallen into the hands of the enemy. "

Although the north would result in eating the western and southern parts of the country, the knight Dosellan did not complain until the end.

Kindloa, who had been watching the scene silently since before, made a gentle attitude. Everyone noticed that there was a statement.

"What do you think Amelia Alknor wants to cross?"

A senior martial arts officer answers the question on his behalf.

"It's Ryschleaf's rescue. If you suddenly get hit in the stomach, you should put your hand on the pain."

The cities of Vyadberg and Doselan are hungry, the Quoldenze army beats them with their fists, and the Spiazeke army holds down their painful stomachs. Knight Docellan agrees.

"I may have missed the message on purpose." Turn back because it's dangerous, and stand back from Ryschleaf... I think that's what you're saying. ”

Convincing and sympathetic to that opinion.

In fact, there is only one message from the city of Docellan that has rushed into this camp. If you look at the way you wear it, it seems like you've dared to leak it.

"Certainly, even if a few elites drop the city, they cannot suppress it."... the enemy may be in a hurry. "

A small elite force may be able to take down a defenseless city at once, but it is difficult to maintain and function as a base. Because it takes a lot of manpower to master the city. However, assigning locally sourced Civil Guards to it is not realistic, as there are too many ingredients to worry about.

“If it was just a relief, we could have gotten into Ryshleaf Castle via Nambonan City. Why did you bother to cross Amelia Arknoah?”

"Maybe you were afraid of ambushes." You'd expect this to be as much of a Qordenze as it would be to move Lika. "

“If so, would it be safer to proceed through Amelia Arknor, which was completely unguarded?”

"No, maybe it's retaliation." As it is, Koldenze will be defeated unilaterally and will fall back. It was a crossfire fight, and Koldenze didn't just lose... maybe he's trying to keep the force. "

"If you think about it, it also makes sense beyond Amelia Arknor." It's brutal, but you can show the courageous and determined attitude of the next president both inside and outside. ”

"I see. Imperial nobles tend to honor the brave." I'm sure you understand that, too. "

"Now that I can see the front of the Red Ghost Gulfis, I think I need a new symbol of martial arts in Qoldenze." The good and the bad cannot be transcended by the weak. If you've done that, let's make a name for yourself. "

“And we're going to have to turn to Arkonian for defense. Even if it is a realistically impossible invasion path, if we allow it a second time, our mighty might will fall. I have to take care of some things."

"Did you make a psychological hole in the northeast?"... this isn't a simple relief, it should be seen as an ambush in anticipation of future aristocratic diplomacy. It's not about winning now, it's about winning next time. ”

"Gulfis' gall and Rookse's wisdom. You're a troublesome opponent, aren't you?"

For some time, the discussion by the warlords continued, but no new opinions emerged. Kindloa draws her conclusions based on the opinions that appear on the scene.

"The Kuordenze army that planned the ambush... the Wilk army is useless." If we turn around, the boy will run away, and finally escape from Arkonoah back to New Nelly. While doing so, Garfith breathes back. "

It was necessary for the Lord Ancestor to come out more than the Lord Ancestor. But then, Kindlore says, it's Wilk's idea.

"There is no change to the policy of recapturing Ryschleaf first." Scratching the back is a terrible thing to do, but it's just a temporary fall. It won't be difficult to take it back. "

The city has been broken through, but not captured, and most of the Wilk forces are led by locally sourced Spiazeik Militia... then calm down and deal with it.

We don't have to rush back, but if we besiege what we've been penetrating, we can crush it. The objective of the enemy is to intimidate the frontline Ryshleaf, and we must not move here. They thought so.

“If we find out we can't catch it, the Wilk army may be anxious to come forward. Either you come this way or you head for Othelonia....."

Wushu says they will attempt a siege to get closer, or they will make a gesture aimed at the homestead in order to inflict more fear.

"We have no choice, let's move the Othelloria reserves." If we're heading south, we'll put a stop to it. I would like to interrupt the advance if it seems to be aimed at a siege..... "

“That could be difficult.”

If we had enough soldiers left in the North, we could have stopped them in the cities along the way and intercepted the assault. But there were no soldiers left in the North. If a handful of elite people can start a full run from the city of Docellaran, the worst of it could be on Ryschleaf by dawn.

"...... it's unavoidable"

The Otheloria Reserve will only be responsible for intercepting the Wilk army if it comes south. No one challenged the conclusion.

If there is any movement of the assault, the general of the 2nd Army, Tsubaki, will turn to the back.

Shpiazeik McNiss, the current head of the Shpiazeik family, also took part in the operation to recapture the Rishleaf. Originally, it was only the Kindlore army, but McNeiss, who knew Garfis was ill, also came to the front.

Spiazeik's first general, McNeiss, and his second general, Kindoroa. The Rishleaf Castle's defenses have become extremely harsh as the first and second armies have repeatedly attacked each other.

The First Army's onslaught continued even now. It was for that reason that McNiss was absent from this meeting.

“We're going to use some of our ancestors to check on the current status of the city of Vuadberg and identify the Wilk army's intrusion route.”

Kindorore accepts Knight Docellan's suggestion. I decided that I wasn't going to spare my ancestors. I wanted information now more than anything.

"The discussion shall be no more."

And Kindloa rose to report the current situation to her son and current principal, McNeith.

Thus, the policy towards the Wilk army is more or less "observation".

No one noticed that there was a large horizontal hole in the torso of the Voistra Plain at this time.

◆◇◆◇◆◇

The night sky looks a little brighter because of the fire rising all over the city.

There is no clock on the Elio continent, so the switching of the day is ambiguous. It is the border between August 14th and August 15th.

"In a sense, it's going to be like a match against Orsian..."

I didn't tell the nearby guard. I opened my mouth because I was nervous. I was deciding on a grand operation to stretch or defeat, and when I relaxed my mind, I was strangely irritated.

"Barraika Castle is not high enough either." I don't see much of the city. "

Now I said to the escort. To deceive myself into spilling over.

It's not like New Nelly Castle.

I see the city of Barraika, which I just broke through.

I came all the way to the rooftop, but I can't see very far. This castle was about the size of a small building in the city. Unlike New Nelly Castle, which was built on a small plot of land.

After looking at the city for a while, the lieutenant appeared. I must have checked the whole situation.

Are you ready for the next round?

"Hah, I'm not late."

From the hinterland, the city of Vaardberg, beyond the Arknois contaminated area, and the city of Docellaran, which fell in the evening, are now home to a steady arrival of Quoldenze soldiers in the city of Barraica.

Breakthrough to conquest. By dawn, this new bridgehead should be more robust. And its defense rises as time goes on.

"I want to leave before dawn. The next target is Fanes City."

The elite 3000 I lead can move right now, but there's no point if the backups don't continue.

"Is it Fanes City..."

“What's the matter, disagree?”

The Lieutenant's expression is steep.

"I wonder if I should go to Farnese City like this."

After the conquest of the city of Vyadberg, we had about a day before the soldiers arrived from the interior, so we were conducting a classified search. With a successful ambush, Cavalier Veldberg didn't even have time to get rid of them.

Thanks to this, military secrets are unlimited. We didn't have much time to confirm everything, but we were able to secure minimal documentation on the “Rischleaf Recapture Operation” currently underway.

"Rishleaf Castle is now under attack by the main ancestral armies of the McNeiss and Kindlore armies...."

According to the information we searched, the current leader, McNeith, is also participating in Operation Rishleaf Recapture.

It seems that the movement of the noblemen under Spiazek, who were based in the western mountainous areas, is bad. Rather than blasting them... it looks like the owner is going to travel to the scene and wave the flag to restore Spiazek's centripetal power. As a matter of course, two castles are easier to drop than one of the ancestors.

It is clear that this is a chance for the Spiazek family to meet a thousand people. I guess McNeith was in the game, too.

Perhaps there's a message in New Nelly City saying, "Spiazeik McNeiss has appeared at Ryshleaf Castle."

“We'll leave the rest of the city to the rest of the troops, and we might as well get a quick ride to Ryschleaf.”

As expected, if the main ancestor army moved two times, the countdown to the fall of Ryshleaf would be swift. The lieutenant's overprotection switch has been ticking between on and off for a while now, apparently worrying about his grandfather.

"I don't need it."

I'm worried about my grandfather, but there's nothing I can do about it. I had no choice.

That's why I won't show you anything more than a vague attitude.

"I've already made a huge impact with a piercing strike." You don't have to dare to go as far as Operation Chin..... "

"My grandfather made up his mind, and I moved in faith." I can't look at my grandfather like he's swaying here. "

Operation Snake Jaw was called Operation Jaw at some point. It seems that the serpent's jaw came out after the serpent's fang, so it was simplified as a serpent series.

Indeed, it was troublesome to say, "In Operation Snake Fang" or "In Operation Snake Jaw". In any case, there is a desire to avoid redundant words when speaking in the field.

However, the "Operation Fang" sounded good, but I imagined that "Operation Jaw" was something of an asshole. "Operation name" and "Jaw (Agito)" might be better.... subtle. Well, I don't give a damn about the name.

"I can't help being obsessed with Ryshleaf." I should have explained that to you. "

Besides, I trust in the overprotection of the warlords in a way. If it were really dangerous, they would be able to retreat with their grandfather. Ryshleaf Castle may fall, but my grandfather may not die.

At that time, there was something that caught me by my detection magic.

"... it looks like you've arrived from the city of Docellaran." I have a jaw. "

When I said that, I discovered that not only the First Officer, but also the guards' shoulders were empowered.

It was not long after Rearlight and Melguin entered Barraika Castle.

"Young man, it's great to see you fall into the barracuda."

Perhaps you want to change the atmosphere of Tochimi into something bright, but first the rear light said a word of celebration. It seems that he is concerned about the strong tension emanating from the guards and warlords in the room. It bothers me too.

"It's going to be hard." Not just me, but you too. "

When I say that, the rear light laughs lightly and then looks back. There was a group of men and women lying flat. I see my age in my late teens, but I don't know the exact age.

When I allow them to speak, they spin their words in a strange tone.

"Congratulations, young man."

"Congratulations, young man."

I guess Rearlight taught me to say that for now, it was a celebration that looked just like the accent.

My warlords, too, were nervous. Mutual tensions are intertwined and a spectacular tingling space is formed. The vicious circle is precisely this.

"Relax. I told you in Vyadberg, but I admit you're alive." I won't do anything wrong. "

Relaxing my shoulders, I said that to all but the rear lights and Mergine.

However, it is not surprising that the warlords are distracted. For these two are the blessed children of the natural ancestor, born of the parents of the slave ancestors.

"It was Oz and Ard."

It also looked like the power was in the hands of the guard holding the forbidden weapon. This blessing combination will not understand its meaning, but it is a noisy thing.

"Yes, it's Oz."

"It's Ard."

Oz is a woman and Ard is a man. We met lightly in Vuadberg, but we didn't have much opportunity to talk.

This is the first time I've seen your face slowly like this. Alongside the two of them, she looks like a high school girl and a high school boy.

"I hear you two are twins, but in this situation, is Oz your sister?"

Ard also has a minimal conversation, but basically Oz is taking over for me. I had the impression that I had a solid sister and a younger brother who could hide in the shadows.

"... twins."

I think he's being careful not to make disrespectful remarks to his noble opponents. It has come to pass that he chooses his words quite carefully.

I had no idea what Oz was trying to say, but Melgin gave me a supplementary explanation. Apparently, they only recognize twins, and they don't have the idea of siblings there. She wanted to say that because she is a twin, she is not her sister.

"You don't look much alike."

When I compared the faces of the twins, I didn't think they were very similar considering the differences between men and women. I can feel the blood ties, but I think it would be more convincing to be told that I am not a twin, but a younger brother.

I don't know if the reproduction mechanism of the Elo people is the same as that of the Earthlings, but if we were to go together, it would be the twin twins with two eggs. Is it natural that they are not alike?

The colour of beige hair and eyebrows are similar.

They are both different types, but the eyebrows are strangely thick. Oz's eyebrows are drooping all over, giving a rustic and mild impression. It's sweet and adorable. Meanwhile, Ard's eyebrows were very thick and crisp.

"But the twins of a man and a woman are interesting. It's reminiscent of the manipulation of blood..."

The twins, the man and the woman, both children of blessing. Simply put, the probability of being born should be very low. However, there is no added value other than being unusual.

The magic power of both of them was very poor. Agara and Nephio of the Orcian SS, seen in the capital, were also blessed sons, but I think they are in the same class. Quite frankly, it had less magic power than Viscount Galiana.

Of course, however, the magic power was overwhelmingly higher than that of my ancestors. He is the ancestor of the Lord even when he is rotten, and his existence cannot be underestimated. You can see that by looking at the vigilant guards.

You're from out of town, aren't you?

In the meantime, let's ease everyone's tensions by chatting. I dared to ask what I knew. [M] The rear lights also understood that.

"Ha. Born in the territory of the eastern nobility of the Empire, he survived the turmoil of war."

As soon as a blessed child is discovered in the stable aristocratic territory, appropriate measures are taken. Oz, a woman, was taken into custody and turned into an ancestral childbirth officer, and Ado, a man, was immediately killed.

In that sense, you saved me thanks to Qualdentze.

The invasion of the eastern noble lands of the Empire by the Qordenze family was the first step in the Spiazek invasion. Those territories were scratched by our fathers and grandfathers, torn apart, and eventually annexed to the realm of Qordenze.

The area now known as the outskirts of the Qordenze region was in so much chaos that it did not have time to hunt the main ancestors.

It can be said that the cause and effect of Qualdenze and Spiazzek have circled, and now the twins have appeared in front of me.

"... but it seems that our foreign rule has begun and we have lost ground."

By wiping out the nobility of the eastern Empire, the Quoldenze family took charge of the field. Although its governance is still shallow, the main ancestor hunt has shown a certain resumption.

It was Oz and Ard who had survived until now, but it seemed like they were in danger. He secretly crossed the mountain and fell into the Spiazek realm.

I'm sure that was last year.

Haha

After a tortuous process, it was flowing to the Vaadberg Field, in the city of Vaadberg, in the territory of Spiazeik. Even the ancestors can hide in a space that's hard to find.

The twins have survived in hiding while secretly interacting with the foggy village. That's where I saw Melgin.

"But again, you guys are doing a terrible job." If it had been revealed to the Spiazek family, not only Oz and Ard, but all the villagers would have been executed in a row. "

The warlords nodded saying that. All right, I'm in for a chat.

The concealment of the Son of Blessing is a felony. That doesn't change either Quordenze or Spiazek.

Then Melguin spoke with a slightly apologetic voice.

"In that case, when the village noticed the identity of the two, it was too late..."

Oz and Ard sneaked into the field and settled in. It seems that the two exchanged the products they had acquired in the field with the villagers of the foggy village in order to obtain food.

It seemed that the villagers thought with enthusiasm, "I wonder if you're a brilliant adventurer." As expected, I don't think there are two blessed children.

"... to deal with the Blessed Son"

Whether or not the Village will be punished for reporting honestly to the Lord is a subtle line. I don't think it's going to be the execution of all the villagers in a row, but I think it's going to be some kind of disadvantage.

In a sense, the nobility fears the birth of a blessed child. The sand is prone to be harsh.

"Yes, I had no choice but to keep it a secret..."

Even though life is painful, the village can't stand up anymore after being punished. If I were to die anyway, the village chief decided that I was prepared to hide the execution of all the villagers.

The story seemed to be shared only in very small parts, and neither Ruppetta nor Melguin had been heard of until recently. Well, Ruppetta was quite honest. If you tell me such a thing, the behavior may be suspicious.

"However, I don't think the Spiazeik army noticed the incursion into the territory of the Blessed Son. Nice to see you're safe."

That was the question of the Musketeers.

No, I think you noticed.

When I turned to the water, the rear lights came back to me.

"I heard from the village chief, but it seemed to reveal that a blessed child had entered the Voistra plain. The north to the east are suspicious. In fact, it seems to have been searched several times.”

It must have caught up with the magic detector's alert net somewhere. I don't think twins without any knowledge of magic can evade it.

I would have been captured as soon as I wandered around the Spiazeik territory, but this twin was in her late teens and had the wisdom of being there. I thought it would be better to hide somewhere than move in the dark clouds. While receiving food in barter, he was lurking in the Vuadberg Field with a single breath.

And these twins turned their heads unexpectedly. When bartering, he also offered the rate that the villagers would get. You can make a fortune by giving me a small amount of food... I don't want to share this information with anyone but myself. Therefore, the villagers who knew of the existence of the twins were quite a few. Even though the twins didn't say anything, the counterparty took it upon itself to keep their existence secret. Even though the twins could not even read and write, they only had the wisdom to live.

Thanks to this, the village chief replied to the Knights of Veadberg who came to see him, "There are no blessed children in my village." And many times. Even if you didn't know, it's not a good thing you lied to the lordside. I think the background to giving up reporting is around here as well.

"But if I can't find it, I'll always be worried in the realm..."

It's a theory that cockroaches you find before you go to bed can't sleep unless you kill them. I understand what you're trying to say.

"The village mayor told me that there were almost no more searches last December."

Melgin's description is supplemented by the rear lights.

“This is an anticipation, but the Spiazek Army thinks the Son of Blessing has fled the country.”

It's a problem because you're in your own territory, and you don't have to dare track it down if you're going to leave.

But I don't know why the Spiazek army thought that way. There are some speculations, but they are only imaginary. But for the time being, I decided to tell it to the Musketeers.

"Last year, a demonic beast, Sibelkloga, appeared in New Nelly City." Do you know the rumors that circulated in the city after that? "

The Church of St. Gaul in New Nelly secretly raised the Blessed Son in New Nelly Field and tried to make him a warrior against the Queldenze...... Such rumors were circulating.

"The source of this rumor is probably our army." I think the information that the Blessed Child was lurking in New Nelly Field has swelled into conspiracy theories with St. Gaul's Church. ”

In fact, Newnery Field had a blessed child, and after the incident, there was an army in the city's St. Gaudí Church.

"Spiazek's spies have scrutinized the information and sent some information to Ossellia that they can be sure of... I think so."

The House of Spiazeke is a house specializing in plotting. I have no problem gathering information.

One or two spies must have sneaked into New Nelly City. Intelligence is limited, so if you have some information, you will be caught.

“There was a blessed child lurking in Newnery Field, what if this information came from the City of Newnery?”

It is true that the Son of Blessing was lurking. The information on the cultivation of the beast is laid down by strict decree, but at the beginning of the incident, little consideration was given to the confidentiality of the blessed child.

In fact, the rumors circulating in the city include a blessed child. There must have been some information leaking from somewhere.

"At about the same time, a blessed child appeared in a place not far from us if we think about it in a straight line.... what do you think of this?"

"... I can't say for sure, but I think it's likely the same person. If you are a blessed child, it will be easy to cross the contaminated area of Alcunor. We will continue to search the territory, but if we don't get any results for a certain period of time, we will consider ending it."

Searches aren't free. As the House of Koldenze and the House of Spiazek during the war, I think we want to end it quickly.

When the Spiazek army captured the blessed child, the judgment would change depending on whether it was one or two, but I don't know about that anymore on the Quoldenze side.

“In the meantime, it looks like there are plans to construct magic detection auxiliary facilities in various locations north of Voistra. From what the village chief has told us, it is likely that the knights responsible for those areas autonomously worked out the plan.”

Although it is no longer the task of the entire House Spiazek, the local knights may have thought of countermeasures just in case.

Well, that's a complete fantasy. If you hunt the Vuadberg City's secrets, you may find answers, but it will be good after the war.

The important thing is that there are blessed twins here and now.

"That's why Melgin asked me about the twins." In the southern part of the continent, blessed children are rarely driven into battle, so why not try using Oz and Ard? ”

At the moment of the big showdown between the Kuordenze and the Spiazek armies, the twin ancestors attack the city of Veldberg. The blow from behind will be effective.

I can see why Melguin didn't like the explanation via Ruppetta. This is like terrorism with the Son of Blessing. If the warlord had asked me, I might have been treated as a dangerous person.

I became positive about the story because I met Orsian in the capital. Having seen with my own eyes the precedent of the Orsian SS and the Luotad, I had more room to consider. Orcian uses blessed children like Agara and Nephio, so I thought I might be able to do it too.

I wonder if he was intrigued, but another warlord also takes part in the conversation.

"I've heard that there are areas in the south where we can't satisfactorily hunt our ancestors..."

Free cities in the southern part of the continent continue to suffer from turmoil, and there are many areas where governance is not stable. As a result, there are rare instances where the Blessed Child survives.

"... though, isn't it troublesome to use the blessed child after the war?"

The Son of Blessing is the Lord's ancestor, and the Lord's ancestor is the ruling class in the continent of Elio. If you just run away, if you show courage and show merit, some people will think that it should be respected as a "one master ancestor" rather than a "blessed child".

After sporadically using the product, I can't go to the checkout box. If you do that, the user's reputation will be very bad.

If you cut off other territories in the war, you can cede the land and make it a puppet aristocrat house, but if you use it for defense battles, you will continue to have it in your own territory. A blessed child who has learned to fight is a potential threat.

Therefore, this method is powerful, but it is difficult to use. Well, in the first place, the blessed child that has grown to a certain extent rarely appears.

"My father said the same thing. If you let him participate in the operation, he might have trouble handling it later."

The territory of Qordenze is vast, and there are many unexploited lands, especially in the outlying areas. Melguin made a suggestion to me with that in mind. But for a nobleman, a blessed child is like a poison. It is understandable that my father becomes cautious.

"But right now, it's an emergency. At my discretion, I allowed the two of you to join the fight. I'm thinking about the post-war period."

It would be good if you could give them a gift of territory in the westernmost part of the country, the Empire Noble Territory and adjacent areas. It would also be useful as a deterrent if I knew that there were two "fighting ancestors" who helped with the Spiazek invasion. While claiming that, I decided to explain my dad's autonomy. It's not my fault.

In the past, the Queldenze family also assisted the Blessed Son and collaborated with the founding of the Evenapis family, so there is a precedent.... I didn't put him in the Quoldenze war like I did this time.

In the meantime, at worst, let's do our best to save Oz's life.

"Of course, I'm looking for a minimum amount of work..."

So I stared at the twins.

Are you frightened by the upcoming battle, or am I just scary? I can't read anything from the two toughened faces.

"I'll turn on the rear lights as your assistant." And Mergine, too. "

The twins were the lower jaws in Operation Snake's Jaws. Nevertheless, a complete amateur can never command an army. We need to get Qualdentze's servicemen to lieutenant posts, but that alone will make it difficult to communicate.

Rear lights and Merguin were indispensable. They've been infiltrating Misty Village since last month, spending a few weeks in the field with their twins. That's how I was able to bring you in front of me, and I think there's a relationship of trust.

"If you move according to the instructions, there is no problem. It may sound terrible, but I promise I'll live with it for the rest of my life. Just bear with it. I'm not telling you to go kill your enemies."

The twins are ornaments, and I will not let them fight in front of me. It's just like a banner showing the enemy that "this army is the main ancestral army." I would like the military personnel of Qoldenze to wave the flag well.

"It doesn't matter if you just stop the enemy."

Perhaps a reserved force from the city of Ossellia has already begun marching towards us. It is the role of the jaw to attract and buy time.

"I'm sure you've heard of it, but this operation is called Operation Snake Jaw."... have you seen a snake? "

Oz and Ard nodded after looking at each other. This kind of movement is like a twin.

A creature called a snake has strong fangs on its upper jaw, but weak teeth on its lower jaw.

Oz nodded as he seemed to be picturing a snake in his head. Ard makes a face that says he understands everything.

"With little teeth, you can't take something down. I'll make sure you don't miss out on the prey you bit."

It's my job to dress my enemies with strong fangs.

And the twins serve as weak teeth. It was their job to bite through the Ossetian reserves.

"I'm the upper jaw, you guys are the lower jaw." Think about your role and act on it. "

◆◇◆◇◆◇

At noon on August 15, the atmosphere at the Spiazek camp had changed since last night.

Both the McNeiss and Kindlore armies are currently engaged in a siege. As a result, there were only a few officers in the Provisional Command. Together with their warlords, they are desperately scrutinizing the incoming messages.

"Wilk army has appeared near Torsa!! The number of troops is about 3000!!"

We all look bitter at the report of the message that jumped in. It was an emergency report, but it was also a report that I was accustomed to hearing about in a way.

Every time the Wilk army approaches the city, a message comes first. Beginning with the ambush of the city of Docellaran, the city of Barraica and the city of Fanes were moving towards Ryschleaf as they broke through the northern city.

As a Spiazeik Army, I didn't just look at them with my hands. The Wilk army is sending out a warning to the cities that will emerge. The city of Torsa was one of them.

"Is it the city of Torsa?" You're getting pretty close, aren't you? "

The warlords were relatively calm in their acceptance of the message.

“It looks like the Wilk army is advancing through the night.... after all, the Othelorian reserves won't be able to sabotage it in time."

"It's better to watch the timing and lower the 2nd Army to the rear to prevent the assault."

We can't let them get behind the Spiazek army attacking Ryshleaf Castle. They will discuss again the timing of the interception of the Kindlore forces. We needed to come up with the best answers based on our invasion path and progression speed.

"Vaardberg, Docellulan, Barraika, Fanes... and this time, Torsa." We still don't know when Vaardberg fell, but the Docellaran assault started yesterday evening. Even though it hasn't been a day, you're still breaking through. "

Too early to march, little progress has been made in gathering information. By responding to the moment and the changing situation, the command was at ease.

"But why not aim for Ryschleaf in a straight line....."

That was a big question.

It is more obvious that the northern part of the current Voistra Plain is empty than the fire. In that case, Ignore the city in the middle and go straight to Ryshleaf and take a siege. It's a waste of time to be dropping cities all the time.

"... after breaking through, the fall is only temporary"

They thought so.

A few elites can break through the city, but they can't conquer it. In that case, it would be faster to abandon it. I couldn't understand why the Wilk army, which had been marching all night, had chosen not to do so.

At that time, I heard a noisy noise from outside the headquarters. They're used to it when the message arrives. While I was preparing to greet you, a martial artist rushed in.

"The city of Docellaran has been defeated by the Kuordenze army...!"

The martial artist belonged to the Docellan Knights Army and happened to be visiting another city when the Docellan ambush by the Wilk army began. When he finished his errand and returned to the city of Docellaran, he said, the city had completely fallen.

The information that the city of Docellaran was attacked already arrived late last night. Since there were no follow-up reports from the first report, the senior military officer decides that the information brought by this military officer is worthwhile.

It was assumed that the city had fallen. Much less than expected was the report that followed.

"The number of enemy soldiers is over 2000!!" It keeps increasing!!! "

To these words, the Spiazeik faction went to war.

We finally realized that the North of Voistra was in a completely different situation than we had expected.

◆◇◆◇◆◇

The city of Torsa struggled a little.

Apparently, I received a message in advance announcing the ambush. In order to intercept us, the city was in Castle mode from the beginning.

However, the fact that the city of Torsa has worked hard but lacks enough soldiers, and the shortcomings of the few ancestral soldiers cannot be overcome.

In the end, the battle was settled without a big difference from the time when the cities of Docellaran, Barraica, and Fanes were lost.

It's already evening.

I dropped three cities in one day today because I dropped the city of Barraia late at night, the city of Fanes in the morning, and the city of Torsa after noon.

We've got a pretty strong army, and it's time for our soldiers to get to the limit. I want to take a long break in the next city.

Is the lower jaw moving well?

The rear lights were separated from the city of Barraica. The detachment "Lower Jaw" is supposed to slowly descend southward to receive the Ossetian reserves.

"We work closely together, but we don't know this all right away. I don't think there's any clashes yet..."

The city of Torsa offers a good view of the vast Voistra plain. Even though the detachment can't see it, we're still looking into the distance.

"... I want to leave before the sun goes down"

I can't help worrying about the back. I inverted and told the lieutenant as I watched the sunset.

From here, we can target the cities of Maigiode and Dornia, but let's do it.

From Torsa city to Maisiorde city to the northwest, you can trample down Ryishleaf Castle. Meanwhile, crossing the northern part of the Voistra Plain will be completed by crossing the city of Dornia in the northwest.

"Here's your order."

The lieutenant laughed a little. You dare to ask me a question, even though you know which I choose.

If you obey my orders, you'll have to show me your readiness here and now... and that sounds like what I'm being told.

I made up my mind when I cleared five assumptions. Put Spiazek's overthrow before anything else. I apologize to the Quoldenze soldiers who continue to fight to the death at Ryschleaf Castle, but I need you to buy them a little more time.

I can't go there yet.

"Wear Dornia"

◆◇◆◇◆◇

On the evening of August 15, the excess heat of the summer days that remain on the earth passes through the cooling wind. The glittering ball of light was still illuminating the lychee today.

The atmosphere in the Provisional Command of the Spiazek Army has become more severe over time. A new message was rushing in, and the warlords were once again making a rugged face.

“After breaking through the city of Torsa, the Wilk army is advancing towards the city of Dornia.”

At the end of the report, the people on the spot uniformly turned blue.

"Dornia...?"

If we're going to rescue Ryshleaf, there's no point in targeting the city of Dornia. In other words, the Wilk Army's purpose is not to reishleaf.

It was very frightening to them. It would have been a foolish decision to misjudge the enemy's objectives.

“If you're thinking of rescuing Ryishleaf, you should break through the city of Maisiorde.”

The knight dares to say what everyone understands. It was also a suggestion to revisit their situation.

"There is also information that the city of Docellaran has 2000 soldiers in it. It's hard to believe, but...."

I'd like to re-examine it, but I don't have enough time at all.

The Wilk army acted too quickly. By the time the information arrives, they are already taking new actions, so they are constantly being swayed. The time lag between what is true and when they are finalized is too great.

As a result, the command was unable to take effective action, and only followed the original policy.

As the warlords struggle with their heads and continue their discussions, a new message comes into the HQ. The message came from a soldier who sent an investigation into the city of Vyadberg last night.

The message is the most necessary and terrible report for our current command.

"Report!! A large army has been spotted in the Ark Noah contaminated area!!" On the old Amelia public road!! Looks like countless soldiers are invading from Qordenze territory!! The city of Vuadberg is already under the control of Qualdentze!!! "

The next moment, a tremendous roar resounded in the room. One of the warlords slammed the wall.

“The cities of Docellaran, Bahraika, and Faith also have a large number of Quoldenze soldiers!!”

The messenger continued to report the scattering of dust. They didn't have time to check on Torsa, so they didn't have any information on you.

It wasn't about breaking through, it was about suppressing!

This is a report of an incoming message, investigated at the direction of Command. The information I wanted was so good that I hated it.

This brings to light the true purpose of the Wilk army. The samurai officers felt their skin curl up.

“The situation is extremely serious. If Dornia is broken through and captured, the North of Voistra will be cut off...."

Everyone's gaze turned toward the map on the desk at once.

Vaudberg, Docellaran, Barraika, Fanes, Torsa, Dornia… The line was a splendid break between the north of Voistra.

There are other large cities in the northern region, but given that the poison of the Koldenze soldiers had already entered, it was easy to imagine that they would rot over time. Bad... everyone feels that way and sweats meekly in their hearts.

"If we take Ryschleaf back like this, we won't be able to maintain it!" I can't stand it!! "

Ryishleaf Castle is on the verge of collapse due to Spiazek's onslaught. However, when I dropped this, it became difficult to maintain.

If the Wilkes planned to recapture Rishleaf Castle, they would take control of the northern city of the Voistra Plains and start a siege. However, the Shpiazeik army could not satisfy the castle. Nothing else, because they are destroying Ryshleaf Castle's defenses.

When Spiazeik's army succeeded in recapturing Rishleaf, so did Rishleaf Castle's defenses.

“It was a matter of maintaining. Now the Reishleaf itself won't work."

If the Arknor contaminated area becomes a road and the northern part of the Voistra Plain is taken, then the northernmost shield of the Spiazek Realm will no longer have any meaning.

"It's not destruction, it's deactivation...!?"

It was not a plan to physically destroy Castle Ryshleaf, but to disable it strategically.

"However, those who draw the blood of Qualdenze will allow the recapture of Ryschleaf...."

The domination of Ryshleaf Castle is one of the mourning of the Koldenze family. Its name is heavier than its actual value. Garphis was still in the castle.

And Spiazeik's humans could understand that feeling. Ryshleaf Castle is a place of such significance and value.

Even so, the next head of the Qoldenze family has adopted a strategy of crushing the value itself, rather than wanting the existence of Ryschleaf. The fact gives rise to a distorted and creepy spirituality. They felt something ghastly there.

"I can't believe you took the Gulfis army as a bait..."

As the Wilkes have prioritized the capture of the northern cities, many casualties have been found among the Koldenze soldiers packed in Ryshleaf Castle. Garphis was also constantly exposed to the vicious intimidation of his two ancestors. I'm concerned about my prognosis.

However, the Wilk army, which swallowed up the suffering, was now about to swallow the northern part of the Voistra plain.

"Reclaim Vuadberg now!" We must prevent the Old Amelia Highway!! Where is the Ossellian Reserve now!? "

The martial arts officer in charge of cooperation with the reserve team raises his hand and begins to speak.

“The Othelorian Reserve is encountering a detachment of Kuordenze troops heading south of the city of Barraika. Since it was the main ancestral army, it was reported that they would intercept at an advantageous location......"

While speaking, the martial artist thought that this was a bad situation. For now, this is a complete trap.

"Son of a bitch!! Going south is a disguise!! The enemy is going to buy us some time by having the Othelorian reserves intercept us!!"

The Ossetian Reserve is only out for defense. It's only natural that you want to be in a better position to intercept the enemy than to jump into them yourself. After all, the Voistra Plain is the garden of the Spiazek family, and it has its own advantages.

"The enemy army was originally in a position to intercept!!" I totally fucked you up!! "

The senior martial arts officer shakes his voice. Ryishleaf's recapture was imminent, and the army's overwhelming disadvantage was revealed, so the rhetoric was not inevitable.

"Send a message!! The Othelloria Reserve must attack now!!" Reclaim the Vuadberg quickly!!! Whatever it takes!! "

Still, he stands up and gives instructions. There was no time to mourn.

"At this rate, everything in the north will be swallowed up!!"

In their brains, there was a figure of a great snake with its mouth wide open.

◆◇◆◇◆◇

The city of Dornia lies just in front of the mountainous area to the west of Voistra.

It was not until after dawn that the city attack began, so it was impossible to see the majestic scenery that the mountains portrayed.

In the city of Dornia, one of the main ancestors of the House of Shadows was standing by. When the Spiazeik Umbrella Aristocrat, based in the mountains, betrayed and fell into the plains, it must have been arranged to be used as a counter.

Perhaps the Spiazek forces thought I was marching on the city of Maisiorde for Reishleaf Castle. The city of Dornia was more relaxed than the city of Torsa.

Thanks to this, the main ancestors of the House of Shadows could easily be crushed by the Kuordenze army. If you don't have support, you can defeat them unilaterally. Of course, it was assumed that there was a main ancestor on my side.

That said, it took some time to take on the Lord's ancestors. I slowly sacked him to make sure he was safely defeated.

In the end, I was able to calm down in the city only after nightfall.

Have you heard from the city of Maisiourde?

Even a Koldenze army without a main ancestor can encircle the city. After all, the cities in the North had few soldiers.

That's why I gave you instructions before we headed for the city of Dornia. I told them to properly surround the city of Maigeode.

"Ha. We just received a message." It is the fall of the city of Maisiorde. Our forces are beginning to take control. ”

That was an unexpected report.

As expected, I am marching too fast, and there are not many Koldenze soldiers who have been able to reach the city of Maigiorde. "I thought just enclosing it would do the best I could..."

Pushing?

I was going to attack the city of Dornia, then the city of Maisiode, so don't push yourself. You drain your soldiers in vain.

No, it seems that the young master's plan has come to fruition.

"Oh, you're talking about rotten ropes." I didn't think it would be that helpful, this is a profit. Thanks to you, I'll be able to go all the way to Lyschleaf tomorrow. "

Meet the Quoldenze army in the city of Maisiorde, and you'll be on your way to Ryschleaf. I was lucky not to have to sandwich my strategy against the city in Maigeode.

“What about the soldiers? Today... or since yesterday evening, the battle has been going on. You must rest well until tomorrow's departure."

Haha

The five cities of Docellaran, Barraica, Fanes, Torsa, and Dornia were able to drop at once, though with a break.

Perhaps the greatest contributor to this urban continuum strategy is the Nambonan soldiers. Even with the help of physical strengthening magic, you need to be strong to continue your activities. They have helped me greatly to keep the entire unit motivated by their high morale.

"Have a good night, young man." Tomorrow is also a moment of truth. "

"Tomorrow... I guess I'll have to say hello again."

After a light laugh, I'm wrapped in a blanket prepared for me.

I thought I couldn't sleep with excitement, but soon my consciousness went away.

◆◇◆◇◆◇

At noon on August 16, the gray entrance clouds pile up like mountains, casting a dark shadow over the earth.

The sky, which was about to rain, seemed to represent the mood of the Spiazek army.

"Ryschleaf, I don't think I can make it...!"

Almost there, the fall of Rishleaf Castle was almost at hand. But the Wilk army was approaching earlier than they could take another step.

"McNeith, I'm going to intercept you." In the meantime, Ryschleaf..... "

Ryishleaf Castle was also a symbol of glory for Kindloa after the invasion of the first Emperor of the Zinker-En Empire. No one is more obsessed with recapturing the Rishleaf than Kindloa.

“I know. I'll leave it to my father to guard the back."

McNeith vowed to continue his Ryshleaf assault. I didn't prioritize my father's feelings, because I can't avoid a further decline in my centripetal power if I give up on reclaiming Ryschleaf here.

Reclaim Ryshleaf Castle and bring its achievements to the attention of the umbrella nobility to join the fight. At the same time, we move our troops northward in the western and southern parts of the Voistra Plains, blocking the path that leads to Vuadberg... If we don't achieve this, we will take all of the northern part as well as the Ryishleaf. McNeiss was the first to face reality without running away.

The worrisome thing was that the second Spiazek army, the Kindoroa army, was to face the Wilk army.

"Don't worry. No matter how powerful the boy's magic power is, it can't be undone so easily"

The Kindlore army has been confronting the Gulfis army for a long time. If you think about the number of troops alone, it's a tougher situation than facing the Wilk army.

The Kindoroar army is well-equipped with troops gathered from the north and east, as well as forbidden weapons and other equipment. It was good enough to say that it was impossible to defeat them with the offensive law.

"Please be careful. Queldenze Wilk's magic power is unusual. And that thought is so heterogeneous that you can't predict what you're going to do.... no, if it's easy to predict, it could be fatal."

It leads to mistakes because I try to read the other person halfway. McNeiss advised that we should confront the facts in a palliative manner and deal with them appropriately.

Kindloa honestly accepts her son's advice.

"Be careful with your lord." Ryshleaf's victory will not be shaken until Gulfis is well. That's why we have to make sure that the movement after the capture is accurate. ”

At the end of the conversation, the two go in separate directions.

Spiazeik's First Army moves to Ryishleaf Castle, while Spiazeik's Second Army begins to move to the southern Ryishleaf region.

Eventually, Kindor discovered a formation of enemy forces in the other direction.

"Is that the Wilk Army?"

Haha

Unlike the city offensive, the Wilk army that appeared this time is not an elite soldier of 3,000. The number of troops had now swelled to about 3000.

The Lieutenant who stays beside Kindor judges the current situation quickly based on the report received in advance and the results of visual confirmation.

"There are no more than 5000 Koldenze soldiers." Most of them are our Shpiazek militia. They must have gathered from the north. "

The Kindoroaks were stunned by the sudden appearance of a large army, but Spiazek's stewards came to the same conclusion as his lieutenants.

Most of the Wilk army's generals are poorly equipped. It was evident that it was a personnel to match the number of heads.

If so, can we make some time now?

"Ha. I will return to Kirikama soon." I'm sure we can get a hold of him. "

Now that we know we can't assassinate them, we've got new instructions for Lika. My next assignment was to storm the Wilk army, which would be headed for Rishleaf Castle.

"First, we need to get Rishleaf Castle back into our hands..."

The shadows of thick clouds cover both armies.

It was not long after Wilk's army showed movement.
