Chapter 93
I frowned as I read the urgently sent notice.
In other words, the remaining lords, leaving only the sick, the elderly, and at least those who would protect the territory, were all to head to the battlefield.
It means you have to do everything in your power to stop it.
And this time, it means that the war situation is not so good that I can\'t be exempted because the subject puts their lineage first.
Will it end up at thirteen?
I wasn\'t surprised because I had some knowledge of the current war situation through my information gathering route.
I have been collecting information and checking the atmosphere from time to time, but since the war began, no good news has reached my ears.
‘As expected, 3 to 1 is too much.\' From what I hear, it seems that the Three Kingdoms Alliance has decided to push ahead.
Yes, the quantity is also the best.
There is nothing more terrifying than the violence of the head.
I know very well because I have experienced both the position of doing it and the position of being victimized.
No matter how great a commander is, if there is a difference of hundreds of thousands of troops, there is no choice but to be fired.
You can never just blame the older brother.
In the end, is it going the way you worry about it?
I got up from my chair.
I can\'t even play and eat leisurely.
In order for me to suck honey, it will be difficult if the kingdom does not exist.
I can\'t.
Will the professional from the previous life hang a sign that will be closed for the time being?
instead.
For the time being, I want to become a ‘professional in war\'.
Go now to end this war.
* * *
A total of 23,000 people can head to the battlefield leaving 2,000 soldiers to protect the territory.
Including the female knights, the wizard took about half of them, including Dia.
Dwarves are also taken there to groom their weapons.
also.
Pleas ae ae ae ae!!
In the exclusive cage, a griffon cried out vigorously.
“okay. Fry, let’s go too.”
The recently fully grown fry, who also took my pet Griffon Fry, is now free to fly anywhere.
If you use it for aerial reconnaissance, it will definitely come in handy.
And finally.
“…Can you stay here?”
Let\'s leave my sister behind.
“no! I will follow you!”
.... is a failure.
Everyone gathered here, including my sister Kania next to me, head to the battlefield.
In any case, preparations for the competition had already been made beforehand, so it didn\'t take too long.
While gathering the soldiers, I tugged at my sister\'s sleeves, made her look back, and whispered softly.
“Are you sure you want to go?”
“Of course. How could I be left alone?”
My older sister had told me before that she wanted to accompany me to the battlefield, so I didn\'t think she would stay now.
Still, it was also my honest feeling that I wanted him to stay if possible because there was a thing.
Of course, I needed my sister\'s ability on the battlefield.
But I feel like I don\'t even want to force it.
I know how fucked up war is.
You wouldn\'t want to take your family with you even if you needed to.
If it was just to protect the territory, my father would have handed it over somehow.
I\'m so worried, but my sister said while stroking my head roughly.
“I know you are worried. But Arel, you can\'t just let go, can you? And don\'t worry, I\'m strong too.”
That\'s why I\'m more concerned.
“If you say that… I won’t stop you.”
After confirming my sister\'s will for the last time, I sighed lightly, convinced that it would be useless to stop it.
“Then I guess now is the time to really give it away.”
“yes? What do you mean?”
My sister was puzzled, so I told her to wait a moment and then ordered a servant to bring me something.
Soon after, the servant brought a long one wrapped in cloth and handed it to me.
I carefully unwrapped the cloth.
it is a single sword
It is slightly longer and heavier than a normal straight sword.
“What is that?”
“Pinelia-sama entrusted it to me.”
“Uh...Mother?”
Kania\'s older sister\'s mother, concubine Pinellia, said that it had been sent, and the older sister tilted her head.
In fact, not long after my older sister sent a letter to my father saying that she was willing to go to war, Pinelia sent me this.
“My sister told me to give it to her if she persists.”
“Is that sword for me?”
“The letter seems to be a sword passed down through generations in the Kenzest family.”
Maybe that lady was a little anxious too.
However, she is not a daughter to be heard.
So, after much thought, it seems that he decided to give it to him.
“Take a look.”
.... Yes
Noona nodded and drew her sword.
A silvery-white luster that shines more vividly than other swords.
Looking at it with my own eyes, it definitely belongs to the famous sword.
“I heard that it is a treasured sword that has been handed down since the first head of the Kenzest family?”
A sword handed down from generation to generation by the heads of the Kenzest family, who were renowned for their swords.
It is said to be a famous sword named ‘Keltia\' after the name of the first family head at the time.
Prior to the war, I prepared new armor and weapons for all the knights.
However, I haven\'t given my sister a sword yet, and that\'s because of this sword.
Just in case, I showed it to Aken, and after examining it, he acknowledged its quality with resentment.
Listening to the explanation, they used very precious metals, so it\'s difficult for them to make such a famous sword at the moment.
When it comes to technology, you can trust him because he has a high self-esteem.
If it\'s this, it won\'t break easily even if my sister uses it.
“Can I take it?”
“I’m giving it to you, so don’t hesitate and accept it.”
If you give it to me, I will take care of it without reservation.
On top of that, if it was Kania noona, she deserved it.
He is the third sword master in the kingdom.
It seems that my sister\'s maternal family also agreed to hand it over.
In another sense, it could also mean that my sister fully admitted to using a sword.
Even if I don\'t have to explain it in words, she will know it well.
Kania noona was silent for a while as she looked at the sword.
I\'m sure you\'ll have several thoughts.
I decided to leave it alone for a while to be immersed in emotion.
I\'m a younger brother who knows the atmosphere.
In this case, coolly leave the place.
I also still have work to do.
The time came when he had to say a few words in front of the soldiers gathered before the battle.
“Sometimes, why don’t we say something real instead of bullshit?”
I walked out in front of the podium with a wry smile.
Right now, the soldiers who will go to the battlefield with me are gathered here and are waiting for my order.
Not only to the knights, but also to the soldiers, I promised to reward them as long as they fought bravely in this war.
Those with families promised that I would take care of them until the end, even if they were killed there.
That\'s dory and common sense.
And I roll my head to reduce their sacrifice as much as possible.
that\'s what i have to do
‘...This is why he hates war.\'
It also doesn\'t fit my current style.
In this life, I hoped to stay away from bloody places and live happily as I wanted.
....I can\'t help it.
I have to go now even to protect my daily life.
“Ugh! Can you hear me? can you hear me? Will you tell me even if I can\'t hear you?”
Standing on the podium, I put the magic tool close to my voice and spoke quietly.
I can\'t show you how anxious I am.
Even though I\'m going to the battlefield, I feel like I\'m going in and out of my house.
I tried to keep my voice as light as possible, in order to convince them that I already had a secret to return them safely.
I should be proud, not anyone else.
“From now on, we head for the Northeastern Front in accordance with His Majesty\'s mobilization order.”
The Northeastern Front has already abandoned the frontier fort and moved the next fort to a defensive base.
“Enemy Three Kingdoms Alliance! A total of 320,000 enemy troops gathered there!”
If you include the enemy forces in the south, it is a large army close to 700,000.
The large army splits into two branches and seeks to penetrate the northeast and south.
If either side collapses, it will be difficult to turn back.
That\'s why now they desperately block the enemy\'s offensive and are waiting for the second reinforcements, including me.
After gathering with the main force there, drive out the enemies.
That is the mission given to us.
“Until now, we have been training for this battlefield.”
You will know.
I made them my soldiers for the war.
Also, because I trained and emphasized it several times.
“But I never trained you to die on the battlefield.”
As sincere as this is.
“I don’t want the safety of Yeongji, who was saved through sacrifice! I am going to fight to gain the comfort to protect you with your bravery!”
If they are defeated, the next ones to be sacrificed are those who remain in the territory.
They know that, and when they hear me shout, their eyes light up with a sense of devotion.
“23,000 of the Fahilia Territory Army! When I go back after winning the war, I want to go back with you guys!”
There is no such thing as defeat already in my head.
I am full of thoughts of winning.
I am full of only the heart to save them and bring them back to this place.
“For the time being, we are saying goodbye to the snow-covered land here. But don\'t worry. We will be back soon.”
I took a moment to catch my breath and gave a final shout.
“Fahilia Territory-kun! Go to the battlefield!”
After my cry resonated with the magic tools and the skills I secretly carried.
After a while.
After silence, the answer came back with shouts from the soldiers.
With this, we head for the Northeastern Front.
During the march to the northeastern front, I called Aken, the Dwarf Blacksmith, who was moving in the same ranks.
“Do you have anything to say?”
“No… Why are you saying this after we set off, but I didn’t have to follow you all, would it be okay?”
Originally, the blacksmiths were not going to be brought.
The contract itself was content to work only within the territory.
So, until recently, I had pampered them to my heart\'s content.
Rumors these days say that I work so hard that blacksmiths always put my name on iron at the blacksmith\'s shop and pound it with a hammer.
... I also heard the rumors and realized that I was pampering people quite a bit.
Although I pampered them more excitedly.
That\'s why they told them that they had worked hard and that it didn\'t matter if they stayed in the manor.
However, it was Aken who announced his intention to follow him directly to the battlefield.
“never mind. After all, who else can mend your knights\' weapons? Who can touch the equipment we made?”
“Is there a blacksmith there too?”
“joy! what do they know It would be nice if we didn\'t ruin the weapon we made.”
What should I say? I can feel the arrogant pride unique to the artisan.
“Shouldn\'t we be there to fix it?”
“Yeah, if you come, I’d appreciate it from my point of view.”
When I admitted it frankly, Aken laughed arrogantly.
“And nothing to worry about. We also have our own purpose, so we said we would follow.”
“purpose?”
“I wanted to see the state of the weapons and armor used by those who are in the Three Kingdoms Alliance or something. Isn’t it a chance to get it?”
He argued that artisans had their own intentions to take advantage of war to spy on and steal the state of technology used in enemy weapons and armor.
Certainly, the equipment used by the soldiers is classified as such, so it is not possible to obtain it normally.
Are you aiming for loot to be obtained on the battlefield?
“You guys are all the same too…. Do
you usually follow them to the battlefield aiming for that?
nothing to worry about
Even if they look that way, the Dwarf artisans are stronger than most knights because they are trained through hard work.
At least he will protect his own body.
