Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.

"I see... it's good that there are so many of them, but it's just a gathering of people who can fight." Considering that some of them can't fight, there are hundreds of people who can move. I wonder if it will reach a thousand people. "

What was Hanasa going to do?

I understand the current general situation, but Hanasa must have grasped the details. If you want to make a plan, you'd better base it on the plan that Hanasa drew up.

"That's it... but first, I was thinking of splitting the number of people into two."

You mean 500 people at a time?

"Yes, I think it would be too bad for a thousand people on our side to be the full strength of the bandits in the city."

We can halve our number, but we can also halve the number of opponents. "

"There are too many opponents, so you want to disperse them..."

"The city is pretty big, so if we split up and attack from north to south, we'll have to focus on both of them."

Get an explanation while looking at the map on the table.

By splitting up and attacking, the opponent will abandon the south if he goes to the north, and the north if he goes to the south. If you attack only one of them, it will be easier to protect it because it will only be good to protect that one point. When it came to siege battles, it was said that the number of people on the side of the castle was several times the number of people on the side of the castle, but this was rather a fraction of the number of people on the side of the castle... no, less than a tenth. Of course, I couldn't possibly break through a single point. It would be natural to disperse the enemy.

"The problem is... with only five hundred people, we have to break through the outer walls of the city and take out half of them." I was thinking of bridging the gap somehow... but as a concrete solution, my knowledge is impossible... I am borrowing wisdom from adventurers and soldiers, but I can't think of a solution if there are nearly ten times as many opponents, and they are also castles. "

"I-I 'm sorry..."

Until now, the strong-looking oniisan who had read the air and turned it into air was dumbfounded.

No matter who thinks about it, there's no easy way to conquer it. I don't think it can be helped.

"I'm not blaming you!"

Hanasa immediately shook her hands and showed her, but there was no doubt that there was no solution.

"So you were annoyed when you first came in?"

"Ugh... I'm sorry I showed you such a shame..."

"No. Anyone in this situation will be annoyed." More than that, if there is no solution, there will be no respite in time... and it will be very hard. "

"Yeah... honestly, I don't know what to do..."

…………………

Whether you twist your head or stand upside down, there's nothing that doesn't come out. If you have time to think and prepare, you may find some kind of breakthrough, but at a time when thousands of people in the city have already been killed, there's no such thing as a one-second grace period.

"... let's be proud of ourselves."

"" "" Huh?! "" "

In my words, everyone's eyes are wide open.

"Hey, hey! Did you hear me?!"

Kevin looks at me with the look on his face.

“I was listening. But by handing us over in exchange for a handover, you won't be the first to kill the people of the city like an execution.

If we don't kill the people of the city, we'll have a little respite. While we were working as a team, we managed to open a breakthrough... this is the only way we could think of anything. "

Honestly, maybe everyone had an idea about this operation. They said they had what they wanted, and if they didn't, they'd kill the city.

As the adventurer man who brought the story thought, it was one hand to give it to him honestly. However, it's not just a handover, it's a handover, including the meaning that it gives us time to find a way to break through the defenses. If you mean to use us as a positive choice rather than backwards, then it will change a bit.

"Can't you let me do that!!"

Bang!!

But Kevin clapped his desk hard and disagreed.

There was a loud noise, and Hanasa twitched.

But there's no other way.

"If Khaido and the others were to fall apart, then we would have almost no chance of breaking through and getting help!" It's just like throwing Khaidoes in the middle of enemy territory!

I hate people who sell their buddies so much that they throw up! I'd rather die in a special attack than do the same thing as those guys!! "

If you were an adventurer, you would have seen many adventurers, and there might be times when former party members died. I think Kevin's feelings for his... people were set up by something like that. Kevin looks desperate now.

"There is no chance of solving even a special attack, but if we buy time, it won't be zero." You know that, don't you? You don't have to tell me which is the better solution. ”

"It would mean the same thing if they were both almost zero!!"

Dogan!

Even so, Kevin slams his desk. No, I hit him first.

"Both of you, calm down!!"

Hanatha yells out loud enough to quash Kevin and me.

So this is not a conversation!?

"Ugh..."

Hanasa is right.

We're not here to argue.

I'm tired and I can't think, and I'm getting hot as hell.

Think calmly, you could be killed right after we're offered as a gift. As for the black dogs, their goal is to kill Nil, so even if the bandits try to capture them alive, there's no need to match them.

I don't know what's included in the contract with the bandits, but I don't need to protect them, and I don't think I'm willing to. As long as you can achieve your goal, if you kill us, you'll achieve your goal at that point. If so, it would be nice to kill them from the side when we know we're going to be captured.

With the strength of the black dogs, it was easy to escape the bandits and return to the demon world. Besides, we're giving the bandits a hard time, so it's even easier to shake off the pursuers.

In other words, the operation itself is built on the uncertain element that we will be captured without being killed.

"Master..."

"... I'm sorry. It's getting too hot."

Hearing Nil's worried murmur, I chilled my head and apologized once and for all.

"But I can't think of another way to solve the problem."

That's why!

Kevin!

Hanatha's words stop Kevin from saying anything while it's still hot.

"... sorry..."

In response to Hanasa's words, Kevin seemed to have regained a bit of calm, and once calmly apologized.

“Yes, calm down.

So... let's start with how much time we actually have left.

I told you that if you didn't give it to Khaido-san... regularly, how much time would you actually have? "

“I don't know… I only said it regularly.”

The adventurer man answers Hanatha's question.

"You're trying to rush us more by not cutting off time... but even if we move towards you, you won't know if we'll be able to find you right away, and you won't be able to find us right away."

"Hopeful observations are probably included."

"Yeah... it's no surprise that the next execution will take place soon." However, if you stick it in without any measures, the damage will only increase further. Even in a hurry, if there's no solution..... "

“But I'm not going to stick to a solution based on the premise of sacrificing someone.”

Kevin is also stubborn. Well, I don't say that the plan of preparation for self-destruction is good, and now that I'm calm, I understand that the operation is an act of approaching death from myself. I don't intend to execute it, but time passes without being able to do anything. It's the same as watching the people of the city get killed in silence.

"... until now, Hanasa and the others have thought of various things, and have already come up with some solutions, but they should have rejected them considering that the probability of all of them going well is low." If a normal operation doesn't have any teeth at all, we have to think about breaking through in an unusual way. "

“An unusual way?”

"Ah. An ambush using an unexpected method." This is the only winning muscle I could find.

When I tried to break through normally, it was obvious that I would be turned back. It is such that it cannot be overturned after devising some measures. In that case, it's better to give up trying to break through. ”

I don't have any special plans either.

I'm still thinking about this moment, and I'm still talking.

But here's Hanatha and Kevin. There are people holding their heads in the same room. And they are the people who live in this land. I know a lot more about this place and Janoya than we do. If you point to the direction of thought, something may come up.

"I'll give up the breakthrough...?"

"That's right! If you do that, the people of the city will do it!"

"I'm not giving up on rescuing people in the city.

All you have to give up is a breakthrough. ”

What do you mean?

"I don't have a specific plan either." That's not why we have a detailed plan. However, it doesn't make sense to think about how to break through a wall that can't be broken through.

Look in the other direction.

It becomes polarized, for example, by slipping through the wall or transferring into the wall. It's an unusual way to get in. ”

"Such a nonsense..."

Of course, there is no cheat magic in this world, such as slipping through the outer wall and transferring it. No, considering that the Heavenly Fox has disappeared and emerged, there may be such magic as well, but I didn't hear any such magic among the players, and if it becomes physically difficult for an object to slip through an object or transfer to another place, it should be a phenomenon of tremendous magic power to use. It shouldn't be a magic that can be handled by humans.

Therefore, it is not about actually slipping through or transferring.

"That's just an analogy. The point is not to break through, but to enter without the other party noticing. If we can do this, the situation will change a lot.”

It's easy to say...

"Of course, it's not an easy story. If it was easy, someone would have already figured it out, and they'd be on the alert.

The reason why this doesn't happen is because it's hard to do. That's why if you can come up with an effective solution. "

"I've never been told such a thing... shit... I've never felt so bad about my head..."

Kevin is desperate to think about it, but he just tilts his neck and doesn't come up with a plan.

"Slipping through and transferring..."

………………

Everyone is bothered by their head.....

"I know how to slip through."

The voice of a high man was not worthy of the scene. No, you can hear the boy.

* Giggle *

"What?! You!!"

Everyone turned their faces to the voice, and from there, Lark, Zakke, and Yana's three evil children... Originally, three friendly people opened the door of the room and came in. Someone must have walked through the house.

"Why are you here?!"

Kevin, who was also a master of swords, was the first to yell out loud. It's a deadly place for kids to come, and it's out of place, no matter what. In the first place, they must have been in the village of Tenolt. It is impossible for the three children to come here alone. Distance and circumstance.

"Sneak in somewhere."

No!

Lark screams to block Kevin's words.

"I already know we're weak, so I won't do that recklessly."

Having said that, the three of them looked back, and it was the unexpected ones who came out of the back of the room.

I'm here to help you!

"Petro?!!"

The five S rank adventurer Eagle Crows came in from the back of the door.

Eagle Crow?!

Why is the S-rank party here?!

The inside of the room was wobbly for a while, but I don't think the five of them are particularly curious about how they are used to it.

"Why are you here?!"

"Ahh... I'll tell you shortly..."

To summarize what Donnate told us as we panicked...

After breaking up with us, the Eagle Crowe was helping us with the Renya as promised, but it seems that we have heard disturbing rumors from the Renya.

That was the rumor that the bandits were getting more active in the north.

When there was so much movement on the boulder, the rumors were flowing, flowing and hooked up to the intelligence activities of the Renya.

That was enough material to worry about us heading north, but when I got there, I got a letter from Ralbert, Tana's sister in Rangebie on the road, saying that we were heading in the direction of the bandits.

In a completely irrelevant incident on Ouca Island, it seems that we rushed to the conclusion that we had been involved in a battle with the bandits and we could not ignore the movement of the bandits.

Then, when they finally arrived nearby, they went to the nearest village... in other words, Tenolt Village to ask about the situation.

According to what I heard, Janoya has already fallen and is in trouble. I decided it was dangerous and tried to make my way to Janoya, but I heard that there were a lot of people in the village called Bjarnoga who could survive and fight, so I tried to make my way to Bjarnoga.

However, Bjarnoga is just a village, and few people knew its exact location, and no one seemed to be able to guide it.

This area is covered with cotton fields, and if it's not local people, it's a vast land that can be painful to know where it is. If you go slowly on the path, you're still in a hurry. Lark raised his hand when he thought someone was going to guide him.

Lark has been doing a lot of research to extract information from the merchants, and he knows a lot about the surrounding geography and the location of Bjarnoga.

Of course, Yana's parents, the current guardian of Lark, objected, but it was an adventurer party of S rank. He seemed to have given me directions on the condition that he was with his parents. By the way, I didn't hear that Zakke would accompany me, and Yana's parents and Zakke's parents followed me. The four parents stand uncomfortably near the door.

"Was that what it was like..."

"I'm sorry to ask the children, but the situation was a difficult one..."

When Donnate lowers his head to his parents, they also react with a troubled face.

If there was no one else to guide him, he would have no choice but to rely on it.

"No matter what, I think I'm a little late, but I'm glad I'm safe."

"Hah... hahaha..."

Unexpected... happy miscalculation is exactly this. I was so surprised that only a dry laugh came out.

"Are we... useful?!"

Lark asks me with glittering eyes.

It was very difficult to respond to, but...

"...... Lark. How did you keep us safe along the way?"

"Mr. Petro's ears are very good." That's why there was no ambush. Besides, we were always close to Mr. Donate, so that if anything happened, we could hide behind him immediately.

After that, the magic tool I had received from Donate-san and the others. If you have this, you can protect yourself. "

That's what I was going to show you. I didn't know what kind of magic tool it was, but it was probably a magic tool made by Granny Artem.

The three felt like they were dying, and finally went back to the village, where they learned a lot. The fact that we are weak. The difference between bravery and recklessness.

After learning it, we grasp what we can and must do, and when we do it, how much danger is there, and how to ensure safety. It was an act of thinking about all those things.

It is not something that a normal ten-year-old or a child can do.

And....

"I talked to my mom and dad properly."

Lark looks me in the eye and says,

Talk to an adult. I learned and executed one of the important things for them now.

If only the three of them had jumped out, they would probably have said that they would show them around without consulting their parents. The donnates would have talked about it... but it didn't make sense to talk to Lark and the others.

"... I see."

I'll stroke Lark, Zakke, and Yana's head.

“Well done. Maybe this will give the bandits a blow.”

"AH!!!!

The three look at each other and smile.

"However..."

"Yeah! I know! That's our job!" Even if I stay here, my feet are tied!

We're going back to Tenolt with our father and mother! The horses were borrowed, and the bandits were gone when they came, so it's okay!

Besides, I don't think we're getting stronger because we can do this! "

It seems that the reckless children have grown up.

I'll stroke three heads again.
