Two months after Nicole left the village of Glock.
The employees of the Lite Chamber of Commerce who were contacted continued to gather with Marida.
I was instructed via Nicole to bring a lot of groceries and groceries instead of souvenirs.
Thanks to this, the amount of food that would not be a problem for about a month was piled up in the warehouse in Glock village.
"Well, as expected, the price of food is rising, but on the other hand, the trading price of heavy iron ore is also rising.I wonder if the deduction is zero. "
A small house assigned in the village.
In a room in an unusual building with the Lite Chamber of Commerce Glock office, Marida tells Aldis as she struggles with the documents on her desk.
"Did you get in touch with all the employees who were evacuating the area?
"Yeah, I think Ellie and the others will be here soon.Of course, Cyril will not be with you as a guard. "
The daughter and Ardis of the Rover Chamber of Commerce, who said they were Marida's childhood friends, don't know each other.
But Cyril, who had a sister named Ellie, was also a familiar figure for Aldis.
"Cyril is already 20 years old....."
Cyril, known as the Genius since the beginning of Mariules School, was just an unreliable child from Ardis.
But the child is already twenty years old.
The tide of time leaves Aldis alone and proceeds steadily.
"Looking forward to seeing you?
Well...
After all, it was Cyrillic who could not see magic with his eyes or practise magic without chanting, but it was still like a hands-on teacher for Aldis.
Nature and facial expression will naturally relax if you think you will see me for a long time.
"What you wanted to tell me was Cyril?
In the first place, Aldis asked Marida because she called me.
If you're just talking about Cyril, you don't have to go out of your way to get busy Aldis.
"Of course not."
Marida stops her hand and turns her gaze from the document to Aldis.
"I'm not very happy with the information.It looks like it's moving in a bad direction. "
With that in mind, Marida brings the information gathered by the employees together and conveys it to Ardis.
Ardis leaned to the unfamiliar words in the story.
"Robles Alliance? What the hell?"
"A military alliance formed around the Ermenia Empire and the San Rogel monarchy from the southern continent.It seems that the Kingdom of Albany, which has long had friendly relations with Tria and the Empire, named their kingdom independently, is also participating. "
Aldis's face became steep.
"A military alliance means....."
"Yeah, they made it clear that the Alliance would dominate the continent.For now, the fire won't go out... hmm, it could get worse and worse from now on "
Marida said, "Maybe," but the future will almost certainly come.
For the Ermenia Empire, which swallowed the Nagras kingdom, there are no more enemies.
To the north of the kingdom lies the Republic of Bronche, the Union of Cities, to which Lattin belonged, and a few small countries in the west of the continent.
Now that the kingdom is gone, there is no other country with enough troops to stand up to the Robles Alliance.
The Bronche Republic is by no means a small country, but because of the republican state, its movements are dull and, above all, it should not have enough power to confront (taunt) the empire that swallowed the kingdom.
It may be too late, but I'm sure the Robles Alliance will swallow it.
"Have you told Moore the story yet?
"I'm going to do it tonight, but should I tell Aldis first?
This is not just about the village of Glock.
As expected, enemies will never come to the twins' hideout, but it is irrelevant to Michelle, who is in business, and it is possible that Sarah will even try to bring in more people who have fled the fighting.
Before discussing what to do as a Glock village, I needed to know what to do as a hideout for Ardis.
Despite not revealing the hideout, Marida seems to know the area.
I don't know if it's just the result of my insights or the power of my dreams, but for Aldis, Marida's care was appreciated.
"Oh, thank you."
In a short answer, Aldis leaves the room.
We must return to the hideout during the day and return to the village of Glock by night.
Having a place of rest, Ardis still couldn't afford to settle down.
That night.
Lattin under the control of the San Rogel Monarchy.
Three men surrounded the round table in a room in a huge building that was once the royal castle.
A man with strangely thin eyes with a neat face.
The other is a silver-haired man dressed casually in military uniform.
The last one is a big man who gives the impression of being somewhat stubborn.
"Supplies from the Empire have arrived without delay.We'll march from here to the nearest city country next month, as planned, so be prepared. "
"I've come to fight various kingdoms and made sacrifices, but sometimes the Empire won't help us attack?It's being used a lot better. "
The silver-haired man reveals his dissatisfaction and bites at the instructions given by the fine man.
The big man blamed the words.
"I advise you. Unlike before, I am now a superior and a subordinate.Watch your language. "
"I don't mind. Not where there are other humans, but when we're alone, we don't need words to decorate.For me, they've been having a hard time together, and I happen to be in charge now.Don't worry, I won't let you blow like a superior. "
Thin men don't care about the words of silver-haired men.
His tactful attitude told the story of who was the most suitable leader among the three.
"Look at that. You're the only one who cares about the details."
"I disagree. In order not to disrupt the chain of command in the army, the relationship between the top and bottom should be clear."
"I follow orders on the battlefield.I'm sorry to be so stiff in the conference room. "
If left alone, the fine man calms down the silver-haired man in an attempt to stop the two who are likely to develop into an argument.
"Just be patient.We'll be on the battlefield soon. "
"I hope so.Last time I attacked the castle, I was so bored that I was about to yawn.Autocasters are useful, but when?You don't feel like you're fighting. "
"But thanks to that, my personal damage was greatly reduced.Soldiers aren't easy replenishers for us on expeditions. "
The Autocaster is the latest weapon of the Sovereign National Army that combines magic and camouflage.
Based on pre-built magic and set procedures, it was a groundbreaking thing to be able to release attack magic without a magician.
High cost and lower magic power than when the magician chants directly, but as long as there is accumulated magic, you can continue to cast attack magic.
Because it uses a very delicate body, careful transport is also required, and it is not suitable for use in the field, but it was a very useful substitute in siege warfare.
Especially this time, it was used only at night to conceal its existence, and thoroughly concealed during the daylight hours.
In the evening, the Autocaster keeps firing attacks, and in the daytime, the magicians take over the attacks.
While the magicians are asleep again at night, the Autocaster will continue to strike.
It wouldn't have gotten stuck if I looked at the other person.
Day and night will soon be attacked forever.
"Confirmation. Are you finished with the autocaster?
"No problem. There were only three planes out of spare parts, but the remaining 147 planes were perfect.Just like this time, if you limit it to use only at night, you can attract the mistake of the other party.In fact, Lattin thought we tortured the sorcerer all night. "
Answering a big man's question, the fine man spoke of pity for his enemies.
Of course, no matter how much you focus on cover-up, it is inevitable that the enemy will discover who you are.
"The existence of an autocaster should not yet be known to the Union of Cities, so we can probably hide it until the next and... the next."
"What will you do after that?
"After all, we can only sustain five cities at the most.I don't want to borrow the Empire's help, and I don't want to expand the front after I drop the third city until a backpack of troops arrives. "
Did you feel passively talking about a skinny man? A silver-haired man comes up with an idea of frustration and mixing.
"We have an alliance. We need to use the Imperial Army to defeat them."
That's a plan. No matter how many alliances we have now, we don't like the Empire expanding any further. "
The silver-haired man asked for the answer to the fine man, not the big man, because he was more worried about the subsequent words than the big man said.
"Really?
"Ah. Our aim is to create a solid foothold on this island (...), but that's why the Empire's forces have grown too large.We sold our gratitude in the battle against the Nagras kingdom, and in return we pulled the condition of all-you-can-cut alliance of cities out of the Empire.That's why now we need the solid fact that our army alone has brought the city under control. "
If you don't succeed here and use the Empire's help to leave its influence in the realm, you may be able to forgive unnecessary outlets later.
The new territory must be brought under the domination of the monarchy with total exclusion of the influence of the Empire.
"Fortunately, the Empire is dedicated to swallowing up the kingdom of its enemies and ruling its territory.It's convenient for us.While the Empire looks inward, there will be only one chance to destroy the Union of Cities and incorporate it into our national territory. "
"That's a tough story.I'd rather beat the enemy in front of me.I'll leave that tiring story to you. "
The silver-haired man, who had given up thinking, shook his hand and threw it at him.
A fine man who understands the character of such a silver-haired man accepts the words of a fellow as if he had abandoned his responsibilities as an officer and instead offers the role that the opponent would have wanted.
I see. There is also the word "suitable material".Leave this to me.I look forward to working on the battlefield for the time being. "
"Leave it to me. I'll show them what I can find in the countryside."
