Wortenia Senki (WN)

A plain in the outskirts of King Pyreus.

There were countless horses stationed there.

Horse hissing and herbaceous aromas spread on the wind.

A turbulent army flag flies in the wind.

In a neatly lined tent, the soldiers work on their weapons for the coming battle.

He is a lifesaving partner on the battlefield.

Their faces are all serious.

Soldiers and messengers cross the street early enough.

Meanwhile, a group of men and women lurked through the castle gate of King Pyreus, slowly walking their horses toward the ranks of the Order of Light, which was stationed in the suburbs.

I'm riding a horse.

Honestly, I think I'd like to go a little faster.

However, they keep the horse down to about the speed of a regular foot.

After all, there are too many people crossing the street.

If you speed badly, you'll catch the passers-by.

Indeed, the street itself is a splendid path that leads to the King Pyreus, the capital of the Kingdom of Roselia.

As a metropolitan area aorta, it is paved with cobblestones and has a fairly wide path.

Even a large carriage will be able to spread out sideways in a few carriages.

Considering the pedestrian traffic, it is a fairly widespread sign.

Normally, you can drive a horse with plenty of room.

But unfortunately, it was too different now.

Military relations continue unabated with residents living near Wang Dynasty and merchant carriages loaded with traded goods.

"But... is this all an army gathered for the Northern Conquest?Baron Goshiba is quite resented by the nobles..... "

The woman sighs at the sight spreading in front of her.

It would be surprising to hear that this is the army that will lead to the conquest of a local lord.

To be honest, it's too much combat power.

Then the man who heard the words opened his mouth.

"Anything, Baron Goshiba is a great sinner who attacked the House of Lords.It seems to me that a lot of nobles have been killed in that raid... because this country has a long history since it was founded, and it seems that a lot of nobles are related, so I guess it's a personal enmity to them. "

"You mean you're burning with revenge from your relatives...Well, if you're a noble-class person, it's only natural to sanction blood.... "

As she murmured, the woman gazed quietly at the clouds that floated over the distant horizon.

(It's not an exaggeration to say that the total strength is 200,000... no, in some cases it's more than that...)

Certainly the army garrisoned here is not that large.

Elite, I thought you said half the army.

Many of them are armies of lords with territory in the southern part of the kingdom farther away than the king's capital.

Many of the nobles with territory near King's Landing will go directly to the battlefield after the Northern Conquest is officially launched.

Still, the sight before you is a big one.

Indeed, it is a battle to the full power of the Kingdom of Roselia.

(Of course, as a result of the maximum conscription of civilians....)

A slight pain ran through the woman's heart.

In the name of protecting our homeland.

That is why the morale of the soldiers in the eyes of women is high.

(But... is that really right?)

The woman's name is Menea Norberg.

He is one of the knights belonging to the Order of the Church of the Order of Light.

To be honest with Menea, it would be a complicated mood.

Because she herself, the kingdom of Taluja, was banished from her homeland, and she had a blade of vengeance in her heart.

I can understand the feelings of a human being who has been robbed of his or her flesh and blood.

(But is this justice?)

To be honest, Menea doesn't know what's right.

Menea is from the aristocratic class, but now she has left the world.

I left my hometown and was dispatched to various parts of the continent on the mission of the Order of Light.

Therefore, we have seen and heard discrimination and contempt for the nobility of civilians from both standpoints.

Yes, I saw a nobleman lying flat by brutally killing a child who jumped in front of a nobleman's carriage, and I saw a sick man who was raped by his wife and daughter for playing.

I've seen these victims attacking with one hand, even though I know they're no match for the nobles.

Apart from the law and moral good and evil, the mind understands.

But it is not justice that comes from the sight before us.

The only thing we know is the strength of hostility and hatred directed against the man Ryo Okoshi.

And I felt the anomaly that I had to participate in such a fight myself.

(No... that's not all...)

The face of my sister who was waiting in the inn of King's Landing came to mind.

A man calls out to such menea.

"What... what's wrong?"

Menea quietly shook her head at the question of Rodney McKenna, a childhood friend and chief of the Order.

But Rodney looks worried about Menea's attitude.

"Do you care about the birds?"

The words clouded Menea's face.

In fact, Rodney's question accurately captures Menea's anxiety.

(I don't want to get her involved... but...)

Kiryu Asuka is the name of a girl summoned from a different world protected by Rodney.

As if led by a strange fate, Rodney met an astronaut and began to protect her.

That is not an act of good will.

Certainly there was good intentions at first.

Rodney McKenna is a good man.

However, a sword called cherry blossom that a girl named Kiryu Asuka had changed the situation.

It turns out that cherry blossoms deposited by relatives who were summoned together were given a spell called the Magic Sword.

Magic is a paranormal technique that exists in the earthly world.

And this force does not exist on Earth, a different world.

There is certainly a similar concept, but it is only a story.

Of course, there is no way that a Gentile could have a weapon with a special spelling and various power manipulation spells just after being summoned.

(But that impossible happened.....)

When Menea denies it, the cherry blossoms in the hands of the birds don't disappear.

The bird is called the third tiger in the forest in the Kingdom of Belzevia, which is part of the southern kingdoms.

Cutting a monster under a blade.

Even a skilled warrior who had mastered physical enhancement due to martial arts, a mid-degree girl did a difficult job.

Nevertheless, it seems that Asuka herself does not remember much of the situation at that time.

I remember the smell of the cut and the smell of blood, but I told Menea that it felt like a dream somewhere.

It goes without saying, however, that Rodney and Menea saw a body that had its abdomen cut into a single letter nearby when they protected the bird.

(But there's no way that a bird who was such a normal girl could have done such a job... even if it wasn't for her own abilities...)

Kiryu Asuka is by no means an amateur, but not a warrior like Rodney and Menea.

To the extent that the elite are wearing some martial arts as self-defense.

Physical abilities were not bad, and Rodney and Menea were blessed with talent, but they were overwhelmingly lacking in combat experience.

Very unlikely to be a warrior.

However, such an amateur girl defeated the third tiger.

It was a stunning blow, not even Menea could reproduce it with confidence.

(Normally, you should see the power of the Enabling Magic engraved in the cherry blossom sword activated.)

And when I pinpointed the cause of the impossible, the answer that I arrived at was the existence of the organization.

Rodney found out about it and put it under surveillance in the name of protecting the birds.

For Rodney, who has been chasing a mysterious group called the organization that has been leaping into the darkness of the Western continent for many years, it was a perfect match.

Of course, there was no confirmation that Koichiro Okoshiba, who deposited cherry blossoms with Asuka, was related to the organization.

Certainly, even immediately after the summons, he said that he had slaughtered Misha Fontine, the deputy court magician of the Kingdom of Belzevia, and that he possessed a sword called cherry blossom with a conferment technique. The work of Koichiro Mishishiba, whom Asuka told me about, was too peculiar.

Doubting the involvement of the organization is also ineffective.

Asuka herself has not yet communicated Rodney's and others' expectations that a man named Koichiro Okoshiba may be involved in the organization.

It's just that Rodney and Menea think about it in light of all the circumstances.

If this is how the birds convey information to the upper echelons of the Church of God of Light, such as the affiliates of the organization, it is obvious that it will taste really bad.

In any event, the Order of the Divine Light has officially denied the existence of the organization.

It is quite difficult for the Church, which, as the proxy of the god of light Meneos, considers bringing peace and stability to the entire Western continent as its supreme proposition, to acknowledge the existence that may be comparable to ourselves.

However, many people belonging to the upper echelons acknowledge the existence of informal organizations.

After all, there are a number of operational units with experience in engaging unidentified units.

Moreover, even if the reported church investigates the unit, its whereabouts and affiliation are completely unknown.

Originally, even if it was information from secret forces concealed by the state, no one would know what to do with the intelligence of the Order of Light, which can be investigated.

And it can be said that this in itself faithfully represents the existence of a group called an organization.

Therefore, if the upper ecclesiastical hierarchy finds out about the existence of the birds, which may be a clue about the mysterious group, it will not be a busy result.

(Even though she's in a difficult position.....)

Kiryu Asuka is a beautiful girl.

But in this case, the beauty becomes vengeance.

There are still a lot of people who come to astronauts now.

Fortunately, since it is under the protection of Rodney and the others, there is no one who can take direct action, but there is a possibility that the hoop may come off due to some kind of protrusion.

When people are convinced that they are just, they can do whatever is cruel.

Especially this tendency is common among the Knights of the Cathedral with the task of protecting the Order of Light.

The fact that they experienced a real battle will make it easier for them to turn their minds into beasts.

So they don't condone people who might know the enemy's information.

No, it doesn't matter if you actually have it or not.

It's just that they may have it, and it's the same as guilty if you try them.

If that happens, Koichiro Okoshiba will no longer have a problem with whether or not he is really related to the organization.

That is the end of the line for Rodney and Menea, who are beginning to have a feeling of love for astronauts.

(And now... the Baron of Fujisaki is also a problem...)

The thoughts annoy Menea.

Ryo Okoshiba, the hero of salvation who suddenly appeared in the Kingdom of Roselia, was one of the helpers who, together with Elena Steiner, prevented the tyranny of the Ortomean Empire, which invaded the Kingdom of Zaruda.And now a rebel who has committed treason.....)

Because all of this has been a medal that has been piled up over the last few years.

If you only heard this, you'd think it was some sort of ghost.

Therefore, when Asuka first heard the name Ryo Okoshiba in this earthly world, it seemed impossible to hide the surprise.

Normally, all you have to do is jump into the possibility of an unexpected reunion with a relative, but the story changes dramatically when the opponent is the same person who has done something comparable to a mythical hero.

(But when you become a human with the same surname as your child....)

Menea does not know whether the surname Misaki is the most common surname on earth.

Menea was certainly a Japanese whose mother had been summoned, so she had heard a lot of information from her mother, but she didn't even know her last name, which was often used for boulders.

However, it would be normal to think that Koichiro Mishishishiba and Ryo Mishishishishiba have a connection.

Asuka also seemed to be half-hearted at first, but judging by the style I heard, he said he was Koichiro Okoshiba's grandson.

However, when that happens, it will be difficult for Ryo Okoshiba to stand in her true position.

Koichiro Mishishishiba and Ryo Mishishishishiba, who are thought to be his grandchildren, are only likely to be related to the organization.

Moreover, none of the information has solid evidence.

(Is it related to the organization or not...)

The question is, there is no judgment material, and in the current situation, it is not even possible to assemble a hypothesis.

No, on the contrary, there are too many assumptions, and any conclusions can be drawn.

That's why Menea is troubled.

(Though it is one hand to consider exclusion in the sense of eliminating the anxiety element....)

But that choice could be the opposite of stepping on a tiger's tail.

I wonder if it is okay to leave it alone.

Rodney was worried about Menea's side.

No, the upper ecclesiastical divisions think the same way.

(That is why Cardinal Roland was ordered to do so by His Holiness the Pope....)

As the escort of Cardinal Roland, Menea's mission has been twofold.

The first is patrols from around the world.

It is a journey to confirm the prestige of the Order of the Gods of Light and to guide the hearts of believers in peace.

But the real aim is to investigate the young heroes.

That is the true reason why the high priests, the Cardinals, came to this kingdom of Roseria after a long time from the sacred capital Menestia.

(But the situation is already changing.....)

It was supposed to be just an investigation, but now we are joining Queen Lupis and Baron Goshiba as reinforcements.

Cardinal Roland began by offering reinforcements as a way to facilitate intelligence operations in the restless King Pyreus, but the Cardinal himself must have been surprised that the Knights of the Eighteenth Cathedral would be dispatched.

(They are one of the finest Knights of the Cathedral dispatched across the Southern Kingdom.....)

Even if we consider the fact that the movement was quick because we were stationed in the Kingdom of Taluja, it is obvious that the intention of the upper ecclesiastical level shifted from a mere investigation to the next stage.

While Menea was thinking about it, she apparently arrived at her destination.

An army flag with the emblem of the Order of Light was hanging in front of him.

A guard who notices Menea's visit receives a horse leash from Menea's hand.

Menea and Rodney were led to a tent in the guards' quarters.

There must be someone there to deliver Rodney's brief.

(But I don't know how to fall...)

Not only Menea, but also Rodney, who was given a mission as a messenger by Cardinal Roland, will feel it.

After all, the Knights of the Cathedral are under the authority of the Pope.

Basically, I only get orders from the Pope.

And the Cardinal holds such a high office as an assistant to the Pope.

As a result, the two are basically prone to conflict.

Like Rodney, there are only a limited number of Knights of the Cathedral who are close to the Cardinal.

Among other things, the Knights of the Eighteenth Cathedral are famous for their association with Cardinal Roland and, in particular, with dog monkeys.

There was no particular problem the other day when I applied to Queen Rupis, but it would be too dangerous to be reassured.

In order to prevent that, it is absolutely necessary to have an angry discussion, but honestly, I don't know what the other person thinks.

(Worst of all, it could run wild without taking the lead.....)

The result of the runaway was the tragedy of Gromhen, which led to the Knights of the Eighteenth Cathedral becoming known as the [Corsabalga Gravediggers].

With that in mind, Menea follows Rodney behind her.

Wishing my dear sister no more fire powder.

A few days later, the suburbs of King's Landing sound a soft horn.

And the earth began to vibrate as if it were responding to it.

The hissing of the mermaid rises from there, and the air is heating up.

They started marching northeast while forming a line of serpents.

To take away the life of a corrupt hero who became a traitor to his country.....
