The first problem stemmed from the fact that Laika, who suddenly became ill, could not travel with Siegfried’s party.
Siegfried couldn’t take Laika, who suddenly became ill as if she had a fever, and couldn’t leave Eldmia, who would leave a big mark while fighting a lich in the middle of an unknown enemy camp, I decided to pinpoint his location using the method I used when he disappeared while searching for him.
With Asillie’s earrings. At that time, they had to search the entire empire, so many wizards were defeated, but this time, it was a possible option because there was no need for it, and the support of the empire was also unchanged, so they were able to pinpoint the location of Eldmia without difficulty.
The difference is that unlike at the time, immediate transfer through the simple gate is not possible.
After being separated from the unit, they could not receive support, so the only way was to check the map Laika had brought, specify the route, and join them as quickly as possible.
A second problem arose along the way. I didn’t make a mistake to leave a trace, but it ended up being an ‘observation’.
It wasn’t that Siegfried’s party was careless.
“Illusion wizards have identified the location.”
“What’s the distance?”
“It’s a bit far from us. Even if we move in a hurry, it will take half a day.”
It was just insufficient.
Not only were they not warriors or famous heroes, but the Demon King’s army were also people who had lived through a war that lasted.
In the early days of the war, what troubled the Demon King’s Army the most was the spies and detached troops of the Kingdom’s army. Because of mana and aura, their presence is not felt properly, and since humans live in demonic spirits, there is no proper way to catch their tails once they are mixed.
Of course, the Demon King’s army also developed to respond to it. Magic tools and magic were developed to capture mana and aura, and the illusion wizards, who could be said to be on the cutting edge in the technology of utilizing the remnants of evil spirits, achieved a feat of capturing divine power.
For them, it was not a task to come and capture the hero with all three powers. Had it not been for the loss of contact with the Headquarters due to Thor’s betrayal, he would have responded by forcibly summoning the Special Operations Department, but failing to do so was the only regret.
Still, the fact that this situation is an opportunity remains unchanged.
The question was also raised as to what purpose the warriors of the empire were acting apart from the kingdom army, but this is also a problem to be solved later. In a situation where he had to watch the leash tighten, he saw the possibility of a reversal, so now is the time to act.
The fact that the warriors of the empire were not yet complete also contributed to their courageous actions. The number of magicians and elites gathered in the conviction that there was a chance of winning if they were selected and selected again was about 600.
At first, they were not sure of success even when they were put into the operation, but it was different now. After making the judgment, the commander of the detachment delivered a new order to his subordinates who were vigilant.
“There’s nothing special. First of all, you can encounter them faster than expected, so make your body as light as possible.”
Although he was instructed to throw away the food and camping equipment he had personally brought, his men followed his orders without hesitation. There is no disbelief there. There are only soldiers who carry out orders.
“Monsters around here are controlled by our allies, so focus only on moving. If there is a problem, fostering...” It
was at that time that an unfamiliar voice came from behind the commander who was looking at him with satisfaction.
“There is a problem.”
With the intense pain rising from his right hand and the blown head, the most plausible conclusion he could draw was to say that even Siegfried was just a trap to lure the Demon King’s army. It’s just an implausible guess.
“Did you ask how did you know?”
“If I heard that, I guess it’s true.”
The commander’s last memory was watching Eldmia lift her legs, responding calmly to the point that it was hard to believe that she had just killed those who were worthy of being called the elite, even if they were a minority.
Eldmia, who had stunned him with additional blows, continued talking as she approached the sorceress, who was bound by Emmet’s magic and was halfway bent over.
“Originally, there were quite a few things I wanted to ask you first, but thanks to that friend who just fainted, I lost one. Can you guess what this means?”
The corpses of the dead comrades, the commander who was incapacitated in an instant, and the fact that he had not felt any presence or magical power until he approached this close range all gnawed away at the wizard’s will to resist. This naturally resulted in giving up even the least resistance, and the wizard’s consciousness, which had given up everything, naturally pointed out the irrationality of the current situation and tried to express regret.
“Ah, I can’t talk. It’s not a big deal... It means that if you don’t answer my questions properly, I might end up with a dead friend instead of a fainted one.”
It was Eldmia’s threat that prevented that. At the same time, some of the binding magic, which did not allow the wizard to even speak, was released, and freedom was restored to the top of the neck. Eldmia nodded briefly while staring straight at the wizard’s head and gaze, which slowly moved toward her, and asked lightly as if it was still not a big deal.
“What do you want to do?”
I don’t know if it was because he was close to death, but the wizard was able to intuit. That it was not an act to make oneself nervous.
Based on the conversation they had just had, it was clear that the operation had been leaked in some form. Even if you keep your mouth shut, they will kill themselves without regret.
“I-what can I do?”
Rather than being killed like that, it is better to live even if it becomes a milestone used to find the empire’s warriors. Satisfaction spread over Eldmia’s expression as she looked at the wizard who made a quick decision and answered.
However, the answer that came back was much different from his expectations.
“It’s good that we can communicate well. Then, shall we track down the location of the other troops?”
