Chapter 609. Across the Sea (4) + War and War (1)
“Think freely.”
Even for this kid who hates and doesn’t trust humans, are you trying to say that forcibly turning them into reincarnated people is a bad thing?
“The only thing I couldn’t do was not become a reincarnated person. I don’t think it’s a good idea to force other people to be like us.”
No, to be so serious, it’s like human scum that we shouldn’t be.
… … Isn’t it wrong?
Looking back at my past actions, I can’t argue.
He probably has other thoughts besides that, but he doesn’t seem to have any intention of saying that honestly.
“… … And he never told the truth about the plan. the price.”
“aha.”
He ate whatever he could and never taught him his true intentions. It must be that there is a feeling of disintegration after realizing the intention.
I know that feeling.
“Is it a half-hearted resentment? … … what happened Let’s check this separately.”
I don’t completely believe the kid’s testimony.
Still worth reviewing.
In particular, information about reincarnated people would be of great help if sent to those who are suffering from them now.
“red… …
The little boy crouched down and turned his head away as if he had nothing to say since he gave everything he had to give.
He’s a really cute guy.
I shrugged and left the room.
Only with the iron window open.
“… … What do you think?”
“Let’s call this a deal. I don’t want to be in debt.”
There’s no reason to care about him anyway.
Let’s pretend it’s like a legal transaction.
It would be embarrassing to mention grace or anything like that, so I decided to settle the bill on the spot.
It seems that they will escape on their own in the midst of chaos anyway, so it is better to go over it while talking about transactions in moderation.
“But if you do something stupid, then you’d better be prepared.”
“… … I have no intention of seeing Hong again.”
“Yes, yes. that’s the best It was dirty seeing each other, so it’s best not to see each other again.”
I joked and left without looking back.
Later, when I sneakily checked, the little boy had really disappeared somewhere.
Probably won’t see you again.
And as a result of the review, it was concluded that the data the kid handed over was quite reliable.
* * *
It’s roughly like this, but the reason I didn’t share about the work at that time was to avoid unnecessary trouble.
It is obvious that they would rebel if they knew that they were plotting an operation based on the information they received from the enemy.
Still, if you ask until the end, I had an idea to clarify.
Anyway, seeing that the device is working properly, it can be assumed that the kid handed it over was correct.
In addition to that, we have also received useful materials and sent them to various places, so let’s expect them to put them to good use.
“Now then, let’s annihilate the scoundrels struggling and sink that proud city!”
As soon as I signaled, a preemptive strike was launched.
“Let’s play the first bread brightly and healthily |”
Just like those they touched and their members continue to attack foreign countries.
We too will relentlessly invade.
Since they started a war and are plotting scandalous things, shouldn’t they be prepared to face it?
I commanded the communication port.
“Attack.”
The prepared depth charge arrow was fired and flew away with a faint red light.
This is a casual greeting.
It’s a knock to start a war.
It’s been a long time since I came, but shouldn’t I be polite and hit the first bread.
The arrows that were fired reached their city and burst into flames.
“Then let’s begin. It will be quicker if we occupy that place.”
or not.
“After 36 hours, will things go their way?”
The result will be known at that time.
Depth charge arrows fired as a first greeting successfully hit the outskirts of their city.
However, the arrows that hit the important facilities failed to damage the city.
This is because it was blocked by the defensive magic that was deployed on the spot.
A number of fleets were seen departing from the front.
It must be their interception unit.
The first number that popped out was about 300 ships.
But that may not be all.
I licked my lips and checked the battle situation.
“First of all, you have to go through that before you can reach that city.”
It won’t be that simple.
I don’t know if there is an overwhelming difference in performance, but the fleet that the other side has is also formidable.
What are you going to do with only 5 ships there?
“So shouldn’t we leave them to them?”
I raised the corners of my mouth and surveyed my surroundings.
It’s time to arrive as planned. One of the
ships
advancing towards us is suddenly hit by artillery fire and sinks in smoke.
Not what we did.
It wasn’t the arrows or attack magic we were using that sank it.
The direction of the attack was to the left and right of them.
Hundreds of battle lines appeared as if wrapping around them from side to side.
However, it is not a steel wire like ours, but a shape close to a wooden panokseon.
Instead, the fleet, which appeared as if to make up for that lack of numbers, began to bombard without rest.
The rest of the reinforcements centered on Lirensen on the southern side had just arrived.
“… … A cannon by the way.”
The weapon they used now must be a cannon that fires shells with gunpowder.
I was sure as soon as I saw it.
The southern continent had secured gunpowder.
We didn’t do it because we didn’t need to develop gunpowder, but it must have been that the situation in the southern continent was developing gunpowder and weapons like cannons.
It may be because the basic environment and culture are different.
Since the number of those called shamans is limited, it is more efficient to secure a weapon system using gunpowder.
It would be foolish to even weigh the superiority between magic and gunpowder.
right place. It’s up to you to write.
In exchange for participating in this war, Rirensen asked me to help draw up the blueprints for the panokseon.
Although the environment and time were insufficient to reach the iron wire, mass production of ships was possible using abundant wood.
It is said to be a wooden boat, but because Rirensen himself applied a reinforcement coating with magic treatment, its smooth strength is higher than that of an iron plate.
What she brought with her was by no means an insignificant fleet.
There, between the shells, I could see the shadows of people flying sparsely.
These are reincarnated people who joined the other side.
They each run amok, sinking the enemy ship, and also begin to face the reincarnated people who came out to intercept.
It doesn’t look very human.
“What are you going to do?”
“The preparations are already complete.”
“You can fight anytime.”
On our side as well, the reincarnated people who have finished their preparations ask.
“As planned, let’s leave the naval battle to those friends.”
From the beginning, the naval battle was going to be left to Rerensen’s side.
We do not help them in this battle.
just move forward
“Advance. Go forward unconditionally.”
Following the command, the ship moved forward.
Enemy ships blocked the way, but there was no sign of slowing down.
The shells that flew precisely for cover hit the enemy ships in front.
While blowing smoke, the ram of our warship hit him.
It was designed from the beginning on the premise that it would not care about the situation in which it crashed.
“Pour it out.”
attacked straight away.
The enemy ship was sunk as the bombardment poured in while boldly entering the ship.
“There are no people evacuating.”
I’m pretty sure now, but their ship is unmanned.
Even though the ship is sinking, there are no soldiers escaping.
There are a lot of reincarnated people, but there are no regular soldiers, so it’s probably because they’re gnomes.
However, it is not that there are no people at all.
“Don’t let it go! Get on their warship somehow! Sink those warships first! Then the barrier will open again!”
A faint voice could be heard from the enemy ship.
I thought I could see three human figures on the other side, and then three reincarnated people jumped up and landed on the deck of my warship.
Probably all three were reincarnated.
“Once it happened like this. I’ll calm you down myself.”
The reincarnated people whose names they didn’t know tried to run amok while muttering absurd things about sinking a warship with only three people.
Soldiers and knights surrounded it, but they snorted and ignored it.
“The moment they arrogantly shouted that only humans could stop them and cut down the soldiers who were trying to surround them.
Our collaborators who jumped out from among them stood in their stead.
“Then we will deal with you accordingly.”
Nellie shouted and waved her hand, using a whip made of plant vines to swing it.
“Isn’t it polite to board someone else’s boat without permission?”
And as if in sync with her, Beckin also responds by wielding a connecting sword.
First of all, after pushing the enemies off the ship, they work together to launch additional attacks and finish them off.
“… … You can run out without being told.”
I just sat alone in the command room and smiled bitterly.
I know you guys are good at it.
Thank you for being motivated.
Our warship continues to advance toward the goal, and the enemy’s fleet trying to stop it is blocked by Rerensen’s fleet and is being hindered.
so far it’s smooth
Of course, going smoothly doesn’t mean simply driving enemies.
Even now, the warship shakes restlessly as it is hit or brushed by artillery fire and enemy magic.
One after another, reports of damage are heard.
still slight
… … yeah so far
“How long are you going to hold out?”
Words I muttered to myself.
No matter how strong a ship is made, there is a limit.
I can’t say for sure if I’ll be able to hold out like this until I reach their city safely.
I’m just going to do my best.
First and foremost is landing.
‘I’ll have to hurry.
There is no time for leisurely warfare.
We’re not the only ones in a hurry right now.
There must be a desperate struggle going on everywhere by now.
War and War (1)
Around the same time Ernesia Kingdom.
In all areas of the kingdom that borders other countries, the battle with the enemy who has been invading in full swing was in full swing.
And the area where the battle with the Principality of Elben is currently in full swing.
It has already been several hours since the enemy’s re-invasion began in this place where they camped after retreating back the defense line once due to the enemy’s abnormal offensive.
“Acquaintance! You’re persistent!”
With an angry shout, Kania Ernesia swung her sword and cut the knight of the Principality of Elben, who confidently attacked from the front, with a single blow.
However, killing a few knights does not diminish their momentum.
As if they were still not going to give up, the enemy soldiers rushed in with their murderous eyes flashing.
“?… Ha ha!”
Kania swung his sword down without hesitation.
Not targeting soldiers, but under their feet. A slash aimed at the ground.
The ground around the area shook and cracked beneath my feet, and I was excited.
The moment the sword was swung down, the aura was released beneath the ground, and the ground was turned over as it was.
It’s like causing an earthquake with a single sword.
As the ground shook, the advancing enemy cavalry horses hesitated.
Even a trained horse has no choice but to react when its feet shake.
while you’re so slow.
Not missing the opportunity, the knights who follow Kania rush in and break between them and destroy them.
They were well aware of the commander’s ignorant ways, so they cut down the enemy soldiers without hesitation, whether they were shaken or not.
“Cut it! Cut it without leaving a single one!”
“Engrave them the fear of Ernesia Kingdom!”
“Don’t let me go any further than this!”
The knights shouted their throats and cut down the enemy soldiers.
