With a clear blue sword that was likely to assimilate with the sky, the aristocratic young man hurriedly turned his neck. The soldiers mounted around the fleeing youth solidified, and the remaining magician and infantry stayed in place to stop Aldis.

Hikaru "The white way to the darkness of jet-black,"

The spinner's mouth exudes a long chant. The shining light The magic of “” penetrating the target with ultra-high temperature light.

However--.

(Do you think you can afford to sing?)

There is no need for Aldis to wait for the magic to manifest.

Tsukidai Blizzard Aldis flies "" high in the sky, dispelling the imperial soldiers standing in front of him. "Tsukibuki Snowstorm", which sneaks into the sky like a small torn cloud, falls from just above the magician to the ground without any interference.

"The invisible area that blocks the way to go is to forget the nostalgia and be a sage."

The caster's chanting suddenly ceased, with no apparent expression.

The nape has only the pattern of "Tsukibuki Snowstorm" pierced deep into the body. Blood squirts from the wound as if to dye the white sword blade, which was slightly peeped.

"Kaha ----"

Instead of chanting, she spit blood out of her mouth, losing power and the magician fell.

No matter how many Imperial troops remain, it does not hinder Ardis. Kuniharu Kasumi Precedes "" while kicking the standing infantry.

"Young!

The voice is faint to the ear. The group running away from the horse was already so far away that human feet could not keep up.

But that's about "on human feet."

It was easy for a short sword, an inorganic substance that flies straight in the air, to catch up. Going at a speed like an arrow, "Kokushun Kasumi" aims at a horse of a noble youth.

Buttocks A pierced bite into the buttocks, the horse ran into unbearable pain and shook the young man.

Fortunately, he was not stepped on by a guard horse. It's a good luck to be able to survive and survive even after falling off the horse.

But the good luck for the young man stopped there.

A black-haired boy with a broadsword stood in front of the escorts who noticed the fall of a young man before turning their heads back. The aristocratic young man opened his mouth in a hurry, noticing that the boy was a mercenary who had just cut the Imperial Army alone.

"Surrender! Leave this body to you! I'll ask you for proper treatment as a POW!"

A young man who is likely to be injured throughout the body, including fractures and bruises, seems unable to afford the pain given the imminent danger of life.

"Surrender?"

A short question from Aldis's mouth raises a misunderstanding for adolescents.

The ransom: "Is it money! If you pay me! My father should pay me enough ransom! It's too much money for you to play and live for a lifetime!"

"Bad but not troubled with money"

Even if the ransom is paid in the first place, only part of it will be passed to Aldis, who is just a mercenary. It is not in search of ransom or achievement that Aldis has pursued this alleged commander. The goal is to defeat the commander, disrupt the enemy's command chain, and increase the time it takes for Cyrills to leave the battlefield.

"T, help me!"

The young man turned around and begged for life, ignoring Aldis's eyes that he had no mercy or mercy.

"I'm on the battlefield to kill people. Are you ready to be killed?"

"Hi!"

Aldis's answer is cold.

If the opponent is a civilian without the power to fight, he will not kill him. A soldier has begged for life, and if he is not hostile to Aldis, he may miss it.

But the young man in front is the commander who has led the battle. Death In the past, while trying to force a trip to the soldiers of the kingdom, I did not intend to hear the lost words that I would like to survive.

Even if he misses him here, the troops will not necessarily retreat quietly. With another person taking over, the situation is almost the same.

So make sure to stab. The fact that the commander has been taken down clearly burns into the eyes of the Imperial soldiers.

There is no feeling there. This is the battlefield. Because it is necessary, Aldis stabs Aoika Soten into the youth's chest without any doubt.

He destroyed the escort cavalry who turned back to rescue the commander's youth, cut off his youth just in case, and looked around as he threatened his calm surroundings.

With a catastrophic blow to the command chain by Aldis, the Imperial Right Wing was gradually becoming less organized. There is no officer to give instructions to them, even though they have squad command.

Grace It weakens the empire's offensive and gives the Royal Army a moment. It is not just the Cyrills on the front that have benefited. So did the militia, which had already routed and scattered, as well as the student soldiers who had set back.

"Captain Remshade! The pressure of the enemy is weakening!"

One of the student soldiers shouts at the officer on the horse.

"Good! I'm going to withdraw this time! Warrior students should solidify their squad and prepare for the chase!"

A young officer on horseback-Hansrick Remscheid shouted out.

Only a small group of less than fifty will remain around him. The number of people is too unreliable to call a force.

And it wasn't legitimate soldiers, but students who went to school. Hanslick curses his bad luck, forcing him to fight with poor and poorly trained soldiers.

But now, with these few soldiers, the only way to survive was to leave the battlefield.

"There are still allies surrounded by enemies ahead ..."

"Do you abandon your ally ...?"

No one speaks to Hanslick face-to-face, but everywhere he hears a confused voice.

"Even if we go to rescue alone, we will all be annihilated!"

Hanslick shouted at him without hiding his irritation.

In fact, considering that this is a battlefield, Hanslick's decision is correct. No matter how weak the imperial army's momentum is, it is only a matter of time, as far as the difference in strength between the enemy and the ally is evident. If you withdraw, you have only now.

If you miss this plane, you will only be swallowed by the enemy. It was not a wrong decision for the commander to abandon a small number of allies surrounded by enemies.

That said, Hanslick cannot afford enough students to find it necessary to take care of those who do not even know the tactics of Iroha. Exhaustion The reason why the smelly brat didn't make a confession was simply the lack of time to say it, not the result of his restraint.

"Leave a guy who wants to stay here! If you want to rescue allies, you can't stop!"

When he expresses himself to students with unsatisfactory expressions, he gives instructions as a commander as soon as he can.

"Hurry! Go through the forest to dodge the pursuit! Don't stray!"

Hanslick takes the lead and moves into withdrawal.

Then follow about thirty students. I don't know if he prioritized his life over rescuing his peers, or if he valued following the command of his commander, Hanslick. Hanslick patted the tongue out of the small number.

More than a dozen students remained on the battlefield without following Hanslick.

Perhaps they know. It is impossible to rescue allies surrounded by imperial soldiers in this situation. Hesitation However, their poor ability to adapt to abandoning their alumni has kept them from making decisions.

"Don't hesitate until you die."

Knowing that, Hanslick dumps.

Choices given. I also gave instructions. If you still can't choose your way, it's nothing more than you know. Desperate Pressing a half-student student squad from the top, painted his forgiveness dark.

"Shit! Why is this ...?"

Hansrick, who was a young son of Takeshi's prestigious Remscheid family and was educated at an early age and was also a senior at Mariureth Academy, had a smooth sailing life. It went crazy because of off-campus expeditions ahead of school graduation.

"If you don't have that one ..."

Hanslick recalls his bitter past, while commanding his retreat.

Once Hanslick challenged the Caucasus Forest with his classmates. But they were supposed to be good students, and they had no choice but to get help from the traveling peddler and mercenaries.

Waiting for Hanslick to return to the royal capital, the disgraceful evaluation of "distressed and rescued by mercenaries". Reprimand He was forced to pay a considerable amount of money to rescue him, but his father was terrible, and his next brother's brother looked cold. At the school, classmates who had been fond of Hanslick had to leave as if they had turned their palms and were forbidden to leave the royal capital for six months before graduation.

More than three years after graduating and joining the army, his reputation has hampered Hanslick. Despite the same position, it was a big difference from Sorte, who is steadily gaining reputation as a clergy.

Fortunately, there is no follow-up from the Imperial Army, and units led by Hanslick step into the woods near the battlefield.

「" Let's stay in the forest as it is, keep a distance from the battlefield! Don't rest yet!

The Hanslicks go along the animal trail somewhere in the eerie forest. The sound heard from the battlefield went away, and finally breathed.

"Wow, wow!"

Students walking in the middle of the row screamed.

"what!?"

Looking back in a hurry, Hanslick saw a few students covered from above with a net, presumably made of plant vines.

"trap!?"

An ominous word pops out of Hanslick's mouth instantly. As if responding, the student who was walking at the top screams.

"T, help!"

He was caught by his voice and turned to the front, where he found a large, deep depression that spanned the width of the road.

"A pitfall !?"

It was clear that it was artificially made.

"Is it an ambush! Everyone is on the alert!

The immediate response without any confusion is an indication of Hanslick's excellence.

But it was already too late.

Hanslick, who tries to instruct the unit, perceives multiple arrows piercing himself with pain. Even that is a moment. In the next moment, I was shocked by my head and lost my connection to the world with such a feeling that everything was moving away and fading.
