The Tale of the Teapot Hero’s Revenge

"All hands, once you back off! I'm gonna rebuild the operation! Back off!"

At Mr. Gillius's direction, we hurry to retreat.

Instructions were quick, but still some soldiers fell pierced by the down arrow.

To the corpse, to those who are still alive, one arrow after another descends on his back and turns him into a halibut-like figure.

"... damn, using soldiers from the Royal Army, hostage-taking methods of warfare, etc...!

Mr. Gillius, who does not even try to hide his anger and is evil in repentance.

I was pretty annoyed with this way too.

Unreachable arrows, down to the area with straws and barbarios, the faces that were the Lord gather.

to discuss future policies.

"Forcing the soldiers of the Royal Army to mobilize and take hostages while filling the battle power gap. I didn't think Tartus was gonna hit me with this hand..."

"Possibly, you just turned it off first."

It was me and Mr. Gillius and Mr. Serve who got together.

Then Stra and Princess Perne, besides Barbario and Camille.

I feel as extra as the two of us, but can't we just be gone?

"Why did you wipe out the possibility! This is how you got here!

Camille's been talking about it, but you think about it for a second?

You're smarter than Barbario, aren't you?

"It's too risky for Tartus."

Mr. Serve, I'll explain it to you.

Nice looking after you, this guy.

"A man named Tartus is a man who values his righteousness more than anything else. Taking such forceful means, even victory, leaves deep resentment and suspicion. That's why I thought I'd compete with my gestures alone..."

"Do you mind if I don't pretend anymore? … or do you think that as long as you win, the correctness will follow later?"

"Yes, I'll leave the psychoanalysis to my big brother and Mr. Serve. Now, what exactly are we going to do?"

"Mmm, you're right. That's Her Majesty the Queen."

"Stop, it's disgusting"

With Stra's voice, track correction to the agenda on how to attack the fort.

Well, what's the matter?

Three thousand is a problem, but more importantly, the Royal Army is the opponent.

Even soldiers over here are like the Royal Army.

We'll know each other a lot, and if we kill them without darkness, we'll be the bad guys.

Drop the fort without sacrificing, I wonder if that way could be rolling in one way or another......

"... hey guys. As it is Tartus and possibly Nopt, and 3,000 kingdom soldiers that are stuck in the fort, then what are the main units of the Tartus army doing now?

And here Mr. Gillius opened his mouth again.

It's not a fort tactic, but I do care about you, too.

"I guess it's stuck in the king's capital! Diete is the best castle city in the world!!

Barbario, I knew those hard words.

Not if you're surprised.

What Mr Gillius was trying to say, I also somehow figured it out.

"... no. It's obvious Tartus has been buying time. Using the Royal Army as a shield is not a way to win, it's a way to stop us."

"I guess. Then there is no way that the main unit will cage castles in the Wang capital. Instead, use the tiny amount of time given effectively --"

Yes, the true aim of Tartus is --.

"Destroy the less powerful Demonic Army in the absence of the Brave, with all their power. This is what the enemy is after."

Mountains surrounding Deltirade.

At the end of the mountain crossing into the basin, Lord Toka creates a mini-gauil.

I flew east where Lord Killier and the others are.

To tell them that the Corcuete army has arrived in the Deltirade Basin.

From here to Diete, the king's capital, I hear about two hours on foot.

"... Nevertheless, the fog is thick"

That's the first thing that surprised me when I went out on the plain.

Bright white mist, covering one side of the sight.

A thick fog, not even visible a few dozen metres away, had occurred throughout the basin.

"Dear Perne, is this common in this area?"

"Yes, Master Leah. In this season of rising temperatures and lots of rain, fog is like a festive poem."

"For those of us who have lived in the kingdom for a long time, it is not surprising"

The accompanying Princess Perne and the Kingsguard Knight, Lord Elia, look used to it, but this is a little dangerous.

In the unlikely event of an ambush by an enemy hidden in this fog, it is likely to be a riot without being able to take a combat stance.

That would result in more than twice as many casualties as normal.

"Beaut, Garp, give me a second"

"Hey there, honey. An invitation to a date in Wang Du?

"It wouldn't be. This catapult is such a..."

"What are catabuts?"

Aren't you both nervous enough?

When I say it, they're going to tell me I have too much shoulder strain.

"It's this thick fog, I've never gone over to alert an enemy ambush. Tell him not to lose sight of the left and right."

"Can't you say that you think too much... Better be too cautious on the battlefield."

"Rika! Hey, you can hit your cane!

"Just this time, I hope you don't hit me."

We've known each other a long time.

They immediately listened to my opinion and gave instructions to their own people.

This preparation is most important if it is to be overcome...

How long has it been since you followed the streets through the fog?

However, the bright white scenery persists.

The feeling of time and distance is going crazy.

"Hey, you'd get tired if you were so careful, wouldn't you? Think of something more fun."

"Fun thing?

"For example, when you get to Diete, you can have tea at a proper stylish cafe - and then ha"

"Quiet!

"Heh!? Oh, hey...?

"Is it my fault, I felt signs of someone. That, too, is quite a few…"

Plains not well visible by fog but probably surrounded by tall grass.

Try to stop the march once and let loose the soldiers of the things, or the moment you make that decision and try to order the march to stop.

"Let go!!!

A low, sharp voice sounded, followed by massive arrows descending from both sides of the street.

"Huh...! And, enemy attack! All units, take a fighting stance! Non-combatants to the rear!

Unable to cope with an ambush in the fog, many soldiers fall under arrows.

In the confused army, my instructions would have arrived, unfortunately there is no time to be sure.

"The enemy was frightened! We're gonna roll up!

"Come on, I'll give you a paycheck job. Follow me, you bastards!

I heard the familiar Lord Mordo from the left.

From the right side, the first woman to hear —— probably Louise's voice.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Tartus army rise in ambition and slash them from left to right.

Assault by surprise.

Misty, I got hit as a maniac!

"Beat hit the enemy on the right! Lord Elia, escort Princess Perne to safety with non-combatants!

"Okay! Princess, let's go."

"Ha, ha!

Lord Elia pulls the princess's hand and runs backwards.

If she turns to us, we won't have to worry about non-combatants.

"What about you!?

"... Garp, will you hit Lord Mordo with me"

"I understand...!

A deeply nodded garp quickly heads to wrap up his soldiers.

Should a tear-eyed beaut also be called a professional soldier?

I ran right to my men under attack.

Now, at the end of the day, this is an instruction to Lord Toka.

"Atashi will be joining Mr. Beaute. You're just loaded on your own, aren't you?

"No, Lord Toka has another important role to play"

From what I've seen, the number of enemies is almost all of Tartus's forces.

Our power alone is full of time to buy.

Lord Toka's mobility is essential in order to win.

"Take the Magic Guide Dragon (Gargoyle) and tell the East Army about this. And bring in the brave -- our highest power!
