Chapter 375. Leader’s participation (7) + Prepare for tomorrow even if you lost yesterday (1)
“You mean you won’t fight back if you don’t want to chase?”
A man dressed as a doll watches the moving air fortress from a distance with his arms crossed and cold eyes.
don’t chase
Anyway, now is not the time.
The purpose of the day is just to dry up
.
That’s why I deliberately threw in the towel and avoided it.
You can’t see his face, but he looks displeased just by looking at it.
Soon after, he turned his back.
“It’s so fucking, it’s fucking.”
Even if you lost yesterday, prepare for tomorrow.
(1)
The news of the Allies’ defeat was quickly transmitted to each kingdom.
In fact, each king covered his face with both hands in darkness and decided to discuss the next plan as soon as possible.
However, in this situation, no matter how much they discussed it, there was no way to come up with a solution out of the blue.
First of all, in order to prevent confusion, each kingdom tried to quickly control the information so that the fact would not be known.
It cannot be prevented unless extreme measures are used.
There is still a warlock’s aerial fortress floating there, how can you not notice it?
At the news, the people had to stay up all night with anxiety about what would happen now.
Meanwhile, the aerial fortress is trying to cross the border of the Zelnian Kingdom.
At this rate, it would take less than 20 days to reach the territory of Ernesia Kingdom.
However, a solution was still not made.
“….oh my.”
I turned off the communication device and groaned as I covered my forehead with the palm of my hand.
“Arell? What happened all of a sudden?”
me who sighs deeply Seina, who came to the office just in time, saw what was going on and asked what was going on.
“What’s going on… His Majesty just contacted me.”
Seina made a slightly troubled face as if she could guess what was going on.
A little while ago, I got a call from my older brother looking for me.
Sure enough, isn’t it to say that he sincerely relies on me for what to do with the current black magician situation?
What do you mean by asking me for a favor?
….Boss. I’m not an almighty cat robot from somewhere in the future, right?
It’s no use looking for me whenever you’re in trouble, right?
I’m sorry for falling against your expectations, but I just confessed that there was no way yet.
It’s not a lie, so I can’t do it.
‘…It seems to be quite difficult.’
The best brother still tries not to rely on me at all.
Even on his own, he has the side of trying to fulfill his duty as a king somehow.
He is genuinely perplexed this time.
Apparently, even at the meeting with the nobles, only abstruse nonsense was exchanged.
‘Hey, there’s no way I can’t understand. For some reason, the warlock’s fortress is already flying at super low speed towards Ernesia Kingdom.
I don’t know if I’m simply passing by or if this is my destination, but there’s no way it’ll just end.
Some have calculated that it will now take about 20 days to reach the border.
In a word, it is ruined.
“Everyone has a lot of trouble.”
“Ha, why are there constant crises in the world? What kind of man’s life is this?”
“no way? Don’t you have one or two near-death enemies in your life? It is life that repeats itself.”
“….uh?”
I heard that too… it’s not!
You don’t usually live such a dynamic life, do you?
“More than that, Seina, what happened all of a sudden? What’s up?”
In fact
, some soldiers are
a bit
perplexed by the fact that she would normally report them casually.
“What?”
“Actually, the soldiers kept trying to convey their petitions, so it was a little noisy.”
Sighing, Seina roughly explained what was going on.
Apparently, when rumors that the kingdom was in crisis circulated and reached here, it seemed that the soldiers had to fight to defend the kingdom, and that they wanted to voluntarily participate.
Even among the territories, some seemed to have volunteered.
Hey, why are you doing this to make the chicken fat grow?
Apparently, they appear to be full of confidence as they have participated whenever something happened.
“…Well, that’s what it is for now.”
“Um… tell them you’ll just consider it.”
It’s only fair to pretend to listen to the opinions of your subordinates.
However, there are still no plans to participate as they hoped.
What would you do with ground power if you had to compete?
There are opponents who can’t die.
It is better to avoid unnecessary consumption.
Until a countermeasure is established, I have no intention of having even a single soldier fight hastily.
So, for the time being, there are no plans for conscription or participation.
In the first place, the case is different from war.
“Well, just telling them to calm down won’t keep their morale under control? Anyway, it’s just uselessly overflowing with energy.”
“How do I do it?”
“What do you do? There is only one solution if you are so full of energy.”
I grinned and instructed them how to control their lofty morale.
“Roll it.”
“?…”
Yep?”
“I’m exhausted with special training to prepare for the competition. Then that high morale will be controlled.”
Are you full of strength and morale?
Then you can just throw it all away.
hmm! It’s a good idea. Then you can’t buy it.
“Wow…
Seina was genuinely impressed as if she had witnessed a demon.
In this situation, it is normal to not be able to roll troops for training, but it is not a problem because our territory is full of elixir that makes even injured people feel very energetic in just one day.
If you give me enough energy, there won’t be any complaints for a while.
It’s time to train anyway.
As they said, someday this side may have to go out as well.
Well, there are more things to worry about than that now.
“Ah, by the way, are all three nursing guests doing well?”
convalescent.
It is a designation referring to certain three people currently staying in the resort area.
Yes our losers!
Proud 3rd Sword Master who was robbed as a group by the leader of the Dark Church.
Ah, it’s pathetic to lose.
I was sincerely sorry.
Three people who became icons of defeat overnight.
They are currently recuperating in a special VIP facility.
They were very considerate of each of us paying the charter.
“…I hope all three of you can get some rest.”
I muttered bitterly.
The Auror Masters and Mage Masters were defeated, but luckily they barely survived and were able to retreat to the rear.
No one died in that situation.
It’s a miracle.
What a miracle I did.
‘…It’s crazy that I saved him.’
At the point when the leader of the Dark Church appeared, he secretly moved to the battlefield and waited in hiding.
After that, they intervened unnoticed and helped keep me from dying.
Even when the masters of the mage tower and the soldiers were caught up in the wide-area destructive magic used by the religious leader, I secretly took them out.
Even those who were fatally wounded were secretly moved away after holding their breath for a while.
I’ve been very busy actually.
‘Otherwise it would have been annihilated.’
In any case, it is an abstention by the coach’s judgment.
I intervened because I thought there was no answer.
So I threw in the towel.
And at least one of them came to me as a way to vent their anger.
I wore doll clothes just in case, so probably no one saw my face.
However, there were rumors that there were some eyewitnesses.
What a monstrous monster.
too much. is that a penguin?
That’s a little disappointing.
‘But how can I be so incompetent?’
I thought we wouldn’t win, but it was more one-sided than expected.
I’d never be able to compete with you at all.
In order to gauge the power of the Dark Church, I let them fight to some extent, but I couldn’t stand them.
As a result, everyone survived thanks to me.
That was all.
It is said that if they organize their condition, sword masters and mage masters from other countries will not be able to operate properly for the time being.
And our Ernesian Masters…?
“Sir Menel… Fractured both arms and contusions throughout the body. Sir Betillan’s body bones are also gone.”
“…I was horrified to hear the news too. Wow, how could such masters get hurt like that? Don’t be creepy.”
“Thankfully, Kania noona is lightly injured…
but Kania noona has the lightest injuries aside from a slight injury to her right arm and a broken one here and there.
Other than that, I was exhausted, but that was all.
I was fortunate enough
The three of us decided to recuperate here at my suggestion.
However, Helmin is said to be healed at the Mage Tower.
He’s a little stubborn.
If it’s here, you can use any number of healing techniques with my instructions.
If you don’t think it’s okay, I can secretly look after you.
It’s a hot spring there, so isn’t it really the best for recuperation?
Of course, right after experiencing the bitter taste of defeat, I wouldn’t feel like recuperating.
Take care of your mental management.
I did as much as I could.
I wish I could have saved you.
“I heard that Sir Menel and Sir Betillan have recovered?”
“Yeah, they say they’re trying to rehabilitate again.”
Originally, he was seriously injured to the extent that he doubted whether he would ever be able to hold the sword again, but he was able to recover thanks to our healing magic and recuperation.
Fortunately, they are brushing it off quickly, of course, and it’s not just because they’re strong…
well, put that aside.
“Kania-sama…
” “Because Pena is taking care of my sister right now.”
In the case of my older sister, she suffered more internal injuries than external ones.
According to that, I have been receiving prescriptions directly from Pena.
This is because using her water spirits can heal much more naturally.
“Everyone is getting better, so it seems like the smart, talkative nobles and idiots who can’t judge the situation seem to be talking loud nonsense about this situation, but what do you know?
It is best to stay alive.
Isn’t this life better even if you roll in dog poop?
As long as you’re alive, everything will work out somehow.
“…But I think we should talk to your sister at least once.”
I pondered for a moment and got up from the chair.
I thought it would be better to talk about it for future work.
Of course, after seeing your condition, you will make the final decision on what to do after that.
Along the way, I took some medicine that would be good for the wound and went to the place where Kania-sister was recuperating.
“Yayayayaya …
“ I am! I finally attached it, what are you doing, Miss Kania!”
I don’t know what it is, but I heard my sister’s flustered sound and Pena’s voice scolding me as if it was absurd.
Wanting to know what else to do, I immediately went to where they were.
Doesn’t even knock
I wanted to do something, but for some reason, my sister was caught and covered by dozens of salamanders, and Pena was watching them resolutely.
What are you doing?
“…what are you both doing?”
“well! I fixed my arm at best, but you’re overdoing it again.”
Pena also showed disgust this time, as if she was fed up with it.
