When the battle was over and the sky began to whiten.

Isaac and the others, who decided they were safe, went down the hill.

Head to Randolph, who is instructing us to clean up after him.

"Good luck"

"Isaac? I can't believe I'm tired in front of this exuberance that won the fight. Well done."

How happy I was, slapping Isaac on the shoulder over and over again.

It's painfully powerful, but I know how it feels, so I laughed and endured.

"I didn't see him, but I heard him in command. Congratulations, really congratulations"

"Thank you"

Exactly. Don't slap your Count Lancaster counterpart on the shoulder, but shake hands to finish it.

Randolph also shook hands one after the other to the likes of Daniel and Mathias.

Count Lancaster, who smiled off the look, placed his hand on Isaac's shoulder.

"I never thought I'd win this much or anything against Marshal Ford's army. That's a great job. I'm sure Your Majesty will be delighted."

"I hope so..."

Isaac was anxious.

The ambush unit has been defeated, but Marshal Ford's main unit is still there.

Even if it's okay to fight and lose against the main unit, you may be blamed for the defeat if it's too unusual a way to lose.

I just wanted some more results.

(What happens to Tommy and Matt, but I guess I shouldn't have let him go...)

Mathias held me up with an assassination plot and ordered them on a dangerous mission with tension on the spot.

The returns are huge if you succeed, but you don't have enough people in your hand to throw them away and use them like pawns.

Isaac now regretted that he should not have been entrusted with such a high-risk task.

(There's no way it's going to work the way it did five hundred years ago in the first place. They'll take care of it.)

- I don't know what Mathias is saying.

Curse your own stupidity in his mouthpiece.

Seeing Mathias accompanying Isaac, he immediately shifts his gaze to neighboring Claude.

(Claude didn't suppress Grandpa at all, did he? You just want me to keep it down a little longer)

Isaac thinks about it even though he's the one who hired the operation.

"My lord, I see roughly the numbers"

Looks like Randolph's secretary will be making this battle report.

All ears and eyes are pointed at him.

"There are roughly three hundred people who have suffered this damage. Sixty of them were killed in the war."

In response to this report, a major twist occurs.

At the beginning of the battle, enemy troops could be ambushed, but at the end of the battle it was a mixed pattern due to the struggle of enemy soldiers who recovered.

Given the size and content of the battle, and the opponent, there are obviously few casualties.

I guess it's because of the impact the first blow had.

"It's the damage done to the Rockwell Royal Army, but the casualties of the war are about a thousand and five hundred. It's about six hundred wounded. The wounded have been paid in turn and taken prisoner."

"How overwhelming!

"A great victory! It's a big victory!

Those who were listening make a scene.

In numbers, I fought three thousand of the Rockwell Royal Army at fifteen thousand of the Marquis of Wellrod, so I'm about to be taken for granted in winning.

But with so many civilian lineages, I was able to offer a unilateral victory over Marshal Ford's troops.

That was a feat.

The Earl of Lancaster also regrets "I knew I should have joined you" enough.

But we also know that Isaac and the elves need escorts.

For that matter, I was thinking, "Next time, I'm going to have Isaac turn around a mission that looks good".

A corpse in fine armor is brought in as everyone boils down to joy.

It was Viscount Maxwell who was letting the soldiers carry the bodies.

Next to it was my son Kai.

"Dear Randolph. My son, Kai, has picked up an enemy general. Can you confirm?"

"Why is Kai here?

When Isaac uttered the question, Kai himself answered the question.

"At first I heard it was an exercise and I participated, but when I heard it was going to be a war, I followed it straight to the battlefield.... I was wondering if there was anything I could do to help Isaac."

Isaac also found out that Kai regretted the past.

I guess he was trying to do something handy and ask for Isaac's forgiveness.

"Kai-"

"Nooooooooooo"

- Well done.

Where Isaac tried to sound like that, the Earl of Lancaster screams.

"Did you do this?

I'm so surprised the words are one word.

"Yes, I didn't end up with a single hit..."

Kai replied, bewildered by how Count Lancaster was doing.

"Uncle Lancaster, what happened to this man?

Randolph, who became worried, asked the Earl of Lancaster why.

This condition is unusual.

His reaction was, "Maybe you know him from a time when he was foreign minister?" and made them think around.

"I have met him in person. It's General Leo. This is General Leo!

"What the hell!

Randolph is surprised by Count Lancaster's remarks.

Isaac was equally surprised.

And more than anyone, Kai himself, who was supposed to have taken over, was most surprised.

- General Leo is the man who took Jude away twenty years ago.

Not only is it an enemy to the Marquis of Wellrod, but it is also a resentful opponent to the Reid kingdom.

Though a strong general against irregular warfare, I didn't think he was in command last night.

Besides, who could have imagined exposing themselves thus taken away, etc.

Isaac also shivers his body at the unexpected consequences of the Great War.

"Kai, you did great!

Randolph hugged Kai.

Jude was only a subject of fear and liked it, but he's still his own grandfather.

Show your full gratitude for taking revenge on me.

"Thank you, I don't know what to say because of the sudden....... thanks"

Isaac also smiles and says thank you.

At the time of my birth, I didn't have much strong feelings about "taking revenge" because I was my late great-grandfather.

But the person who took my kin's revenge has to work for me.

To merit, reward is the role of those who stand above.

Isaac thought that if you did all this credit, you could do it by abandoning your past obsessions and accepting them.

"If Isaac doesn't like you, it doesn't make sense to work so hard" when you treat those who have achieved merit coldly.

If that's what they think, they stop trying to work for Isaac except for some.

It will only do the minimum work as an obligation so that it cannot be blamed.

As a superior, you have to give him something called reward if you work hard.

This was also a good opportunity for Isaac to shake the big guy.

"Kai. When the war is over, I want to talk to you slowly. Don't die."

"Yes, sir"

Kai smiles.

Seeing that reaction, Isaac was also satisfied that he had "said good things".

"Randolph, why don't we just write a report and send a messenger to His Majesty. You'll be delighted to hear you've taken General Leo."

"Right."

Randolph leaves Kai.

And the next thing I knew, I hugged Isaac.

"Thanks to you, I took my grandfather's revenge. Father will be pleased. Well done."

"I'm glad I took your revenge, too."

I can't say I'm emotional because I've never seen him before, but I don't feel bad that my father would be happy with me like this.

Isaac is gradually happier, too.

Randolph orders his secretary to make an oral statement and sign the document.

Likewise, Count Lancaster will sign, "I have confirmed General Leo's body".

This proves that it is true that General Leo was taken and that Randolph did not overstate the outcome of the war.

"Let's have a light breakfast first"

When Randolph said so, the others agreed.

Most of them have been awake since last night and hungry.

Nevertheless, I'm not letting you cook meals now.

After the battle, lighten it with preserved food - like dry bread, dried meat, and cheese.

I'd like to celebrate with wine, but it hasn't been prepared because I hurried out.

But now I felt like this was enough for a treat.

Everyone praised Isaac and Kai, and a busy time had passed.

There, Matt and the others are back.

Matt and Tommy, plus the soldiers from the kingdom of Fartil who guided the way.

They stand before Isaac.

"Welcome home, I'm glad you're home safe. I figured security was tight and bad."

I didn't expect to assassinate the commander for as much as I wanted and come back without one injury.

By the fact that they had returned safely, Isaac decided that it was a "failure".

Knowing that Isaac thinks he has "failed," Matt gazes at Tommy and smiles.

"We have souvenirs for you"

Matt takes the wand out of his back and gives it to Isaac.

Isaac looks in trouble because he was a little damp with sweat.

"Ha..., ha!

Faster than Isaac reached out, the Earl of Lancaster echoed.

The eye is nailed to the cane.

"Show me that wand!

With that said, he walks slowly to the mat like a zombie with his hands sticking out.

Matt, having trouble reacting, asks Isaac for directions with his gaze.

"Show him," Isaac gave instructions by nodding.

Matt gives the Earl of Lancaster a cane.

"No way, no way..."

The Earl of Lancaster looks at the wand in every corner like a lick.

"Father, what have you done?

Daniel, worried about his father's behavior, escorts him next door.

Just then the Earl of Lancaster lost his hips.

Daniel supports his body in a hurry.

"Father! Are you okay?

As Daniel held him, he slowly let the Earl of Lancaster sit on the ground.

The Earl of Lancaster himself seems more distracted by the wand than by his own business.

"This is the Marshal's wand that Marshal Ford had, no matter what you think. Why do you have this?

Count Lancaster's voice is trembling as he asks Matt.

If the answer is the way I imagined it would be, something terrible happened.

"Master Isaac's life has taken the life of Marshal Ford. The scepter was brought back as evidence."

The Earl of Lancaster was surprised to see both eyes open and his mouth open with a pocan.

I guess I'm in a state that I can't describe in words.

The same is true of the others.

While everyone was surprised, Isaac was the only one as usual.

- Marshal Ford is dead.

Because I only thought what it meant was that it was going to be easier because the enemy commander was gone and confused.

"By the way, which one of you picked up the marshal?

Isaac asks Matt in his usual voice.

Because even if it's a joint effort between the two of us, we still have to reward those who stabbed the stubborn more.

"I took Marshal Ford, Tommy took Charlene Ford."

"Ahhhhhhhh......"

Before Isaac replies, Count Lancaster holds his chest from the top of his armor and shouts out loud.

"Mr. Claude, look at Count Lancaster for you. Maybe he's not feeling well."

"No, that must be your fault..."

"Huh! Why?"

"You killed the enemy commander, didn't you? That's why."

When Isaac sees the Earl of Lancaster, he nods and expresses his will that Claude's opinion is correct.

"I didn't think I could see the two of you in reason. Isaac, when did you do that..."

Instead of Count Lancaster, who cannot speak, Randolph asked Isaac.

"After I told you about the enemy's night raid, I asked the two of you to assassinate Marshal Ford. I thought this was the only time to do it."

I'm not saying it's because Mathias taught me.

This is not an attempt to single-handedly.

Because Mathias himself told me, "If I put my shoulder in too much human, Claude will piss me off, so leave it to me that I thought about it myself".

Isaac also accepted this offer because he seemed happier that he could "get involved in the battlefield" rather than "want a handle when he succeeded".

For that reason, Isaac was in a position to receive merit and sin all together.

"Isaac, you...... After that, you were thinking about taking Marshal Ford..."

Randolph got a full look of amazement.

No, it's not just Randolph.

All those who were present on this occasion had the same look on their faces.

Everyone and he were distracted by an ambush unit that would be launching a night raid.

Perhaps the same should have happened to Marshal Ford.

In the meantime, Isaac was the only one acting with two or three hands ahead in mind.

- What happens to the results of the ambush squad?

Don't miss where everyone is stopping motion paying attention to General Leo's troops, and Isaac picked up Marshal Ford at pinpoint.

- Isaac is the only one who sees a different world.

Randolph feared "a terrible way to grow" at the speed at which Isaac's enemies prefaced their movements and struck their hands.

"'Cause Marshal Ford is strong, isn't he? Then it would be easier to win the war if you wished to leave early, wouldn't it? Besides, if General Leo killed Grandpa Soo, Marshal Ford, who ordered him, is one of his enemies. It's worse to be alert on the battlefield."

"No, it's not a vengeance."

Count Lancaster, whose chest palpitations have subsided, denies Isaac's words.

"Marshal Ford, Leo to Charlene. Killing these three is a hell of a thing. If you compare it in my country, it's just as devastating as having killed Marshal Fitzgerald and two generals. No, I might add His Excellency the Chancellor, given his contribution to the country. It's not just the army that's besieging Sonicroft, it's the great battle that rocks the entire Rockwell Royal Army!

"... Really?"

Contrary to Count Lancaster's excitement, Isaac was cold.

(Is it as confusing as the Warrick Marquis Territory when my predecessors died?

Unfortunately, I couldn't imagine what confusion would be like for Isaac.

Confusion was likely to occur in Marquis Welrod territory even when Randolph fell ill, but that still prevents it.

It also felt like a fire across the shore when I was in Marquis Wallick territory, so I lacked imagination about the massive mess.

At best, he said, "Is this advantageous now that there are no more war-resistant guys?" to that extent.

Isaac is less party conscious of the war.

But because of that, "what a comfort to be around, despite taking over Marshal Ford".

"What a guy. I'm surprised you're losing your hips."

Count Lancaster gives Isaac the marshal's staff.

Isaac had trouble handling it, although it would have been nice to have received it.

"Eh, what am I supposed to do with this?

"He said the man was a souvenir. You could even keep it down on your hips. You deserve that."

(You're qualified to lower your cane to the waist, aren't you? I guess you mean loot.)

Isaac had only that degree of recognition, but Count Lancaster's intended content was different.

- Now that you've taken over Marshal Ford, Isaac is the best wise man on this battlefield.

That's why he said he didn't think it was weird to have a marshal's wand.

Naturally, the Marshal's wand that Marshal Ford had was just a flashy ornament with no authority whatsoever within the Reid kingdom.

I said it because I knew that holding it would not be an imitation that would encroach on Marshal Fitzgerald's authority.

"Right. You took it home because of me, and I will. Thanks, Matt."

"You look great on Isaac."

Matt grinned contentedly.

It was Tommy who panicked here.

"Dear Isaac, I have souvenirs too!

I handled Charlene because I picked her up, but it's still easier to understand if she had a visible souvenir.

Tommy removed the folded paper from his nostalgia.

"Something... Whoa!"

Spreading the paper caught my eye a map of the kingdom of Fartil.

That's not all.

It even wrote numbers like the number of soldiers and invasion routes.

"This is amazing! You know what the plan is!

Isaac gets excited.

It's easier to act if you know where and how many soldiers there are.

This one was a better souvenir for Isaac than a flashy wand.

"Father, let's see it together here."

Isaac places the map on the ground so that it can also be seen by the Count of Lancaster, who is losing his hips.

Randolph also crouched into a position where the map could be seen.

"Looks like roughly 30,000 or so are surrounding Sonycroft, as I first expected. 50,000 for Askis, the king's capital, and 40,000 for Menace. A total of 120,000?"

It's a hell of a army.

But Isaac felt somehow why he didn't make it forty thousand at a time.

Sometimes it is of the utmost importance to defeat Wang Capital, but the more soldiers there are, the slower the march will fall.

I guess he was forming an emphasis on marching speed to Sonicroft, the farthest strategic goal from the border.

"One hundred and twenty thousand!? You're so there!

Randolph was surprised.

The Royal Fatil Army is about 40,000.

It would be around 80,000 to mobilize guards and others involved in policing.

Combined with the armies of the Marquis of Wellrod and the Earl of Lancaster, they are still losing in numbers.

I was anxious to see if I could buy time until the Royal Army HQ arrived.

But doubts had arisen in the back of Count Lancaster's brain.

"Funny, the Rockwell Royal Army should have been about the same size as the Fartil Royal Army. Even if you mobilize the roots, it should be around 80,000. Where the other 40,000 came from..."

"Didn't you conscript during the last twenty years?

"No, it won't. If it's forty thousand people, you'll notice."

Viscount Partridge denied Daniel's answer.

If there's a massive movement of people, the merchants think it's a business opportunity to jump.

Whatever the hundred or two hundred, conscriptions on a thousand basis should be circulating as rumors somewhere.

I should not be able to fully control information, so I was confident about this.

"Eighty thousand is just the right number for a soldier from Sonicroft and Askis."

Isaac pointed to two places on the map.

And then move to the forty thousand soldiers who would be besieging Menace next.

"There are unnaturally many of these 40,000. That means..."

Isaac cut the words there.

"What do you mean?" While everyone wonders, Isaac borrows a spear from a soldier nearby.

And let Norman hold that spear.

"Here's the thing."

"What do you mean?

I thought, "I know this," but Randolph asked me right back.

The others reacted the same way, so Isaac decided to explain it properly.

"We let those who can't fight have weapons and increase the water of our soldiers. Peasants and miners alike. Wearing weapons and protective equipment makes me think of myself as a soldier who can work the least. The troops of Menace, who just need to siege far away without fighting, may be those of Haribote."

- Forty thousand soldiers unnaturally common.

Isaac figured out if that was just the look.

This was due to my knowledge in my previous life.

In historical cartoons, the ploy of "making it look like there is a great army, stopping enemies" was often used.

Isaac, who remembered it, was able to discern whether the ploy was being used against the fortified city where the main force stood.

Of course, I don't have the means to confirm it, so at this stage it's just an imagination.

But I just found out you're a makeshift soldier, and you can't save me anything.

Because even if 40,000 soldiers are fake, it doesn't make any difference that 20,000, the main power of the kingdom of Fatil, is trapped in Menace.

It remained a situation that still did not allow for prediction.

"So, what do you think Isaac should do now?

"The soldiers will be tired, too, but you might want to attack the troops besieging Sonycroft soon. Now you won't be recovering from the mess of losing Marshal Ford, and I just want to cut the numbers before they join the troops of the King's Capital."

Isaac makes a strong statement until yesterday.

This is because we took over Marshal Ford.

Even if my men have excellence, they shouldn't be able to fight properly with grief right now.

He decided he didn't need to wait until a situation where the other person could be serious, and remarked that he should attack.

Not only Randolph but the Earl of Lancaster agreed to this.

Some of them also said, "Only now can we win. Then you have to win while you can".

Then it's time to go.

Isaac says we should attack too, so they were in the mood for "it's like we've already won".

"I have to make a report to His Majesty first. After the report that we have General Leo, we will report that we have Marshal Ford. I'm worried you'll be like me earlier."

When Count Lancaster says with a bitter smile, Isaac and the others laugh bitterly.

It is unprecedented that reports of defeat do not cause seizures, but are accompanied by severe palpitations with reports that they have achieved results.

- Elias died because of the victory report.

If that happens, the people in my country will be confused.

Although he would not be aware of it, Count Lancaster's words eased the tensions of those who were about to launch an attack.

"Norman. Keep track of Matt and Tommy's results. And the names and affiliations of the soldiers who guided me. I'll tell the Marquis of Sonicroft later."

"Yes, sir."

In Isaac's words, the soldiers I was guiding were colored.

I guided Matt and the others who picked up Marshal Ford, so I can expect a reward.

Moreover, it would be even more unfortunate if we saved this critical situation.

Seeing care for these soldiers, the Viscounts of Partridge shook themselves with emotion.

If you're a hundred people, you're just walking around listening to merit and saying, "My men took over the marshal."

Yet Isaac calmly turns his attention to the guide.

This is not something most people can do.

They wondered how big the vessel was.

Those who were here thanked God for being present at the moment of the birth of a rare hero.
