Chapter 107. The end of the war (3)

Wow.... My dad is very angry.

Although bitter, I agreed to the policy.

There's no way that what happens once won't happen twice.

They agreed on the policy of leaving a clear precedent.

“Of course, five years until the end is the best case scenario. Of course it will take longer than that.”

There are any number of variables.

There are any number of ways they can survive.

Foreign countries will not turn away at the same time, so it can be long.

However, even considering that, there is no way to reverse the current situation.

After all, this is my father.

And it is the big picture that leads to the oldest brother.

I won't have to worry about anything anymore.

I don't even want to get involved.

“... War is, after all, a scary thing.”

“I agree.”

When I taught them how cruel state-level retaliation was, they both reacted with genuine disgust.

Yes, those in power simply calculate the number of people dying from the start.

that is a country

Of course, I am not against it.

After all, the most important thing is the safety of yourself and those around you.

You can hurt others if need be.

can be brutal

I have no intention of denying that either.

Because the country will too.

And this has only increased it on a national basis.

“...I said, but you don't have to worry too much about either of them.”

I said to reassure them both.

“However, in the present family, it is only in the case of the Three Kingdoms going into a sit-in.”

It is a scenario that assumes that the current war situation will be prolonged for a long time.

“You mean not really?”

“If they had brains, they would certainly anticipate such a future and try to avoid it.”

In the first place, there is no way that state affairs will function properly if there is no intelligence like that.

Even within the Three Kingdoms, there must be someone wise enough to foresee the future.

Of course, they won't even get to that point.

Whether they surrender or use other means, they will try to prevent that terrible future.

“I will tell you this very clearly. The war will be over within a year.”

I'm pretty sure of that.

What if my expectations are wrong?

It will come to the conclusion that they are idiots beyond imagination.

If that happens, only their people will feel sorry for them.

“You'll know after seeing it....

All that's left anyway is to watch. What choice will those at the top of the Three Kingdoms make?

Let's just wait for the news to come.

But foolish people make foolish choices again and again.

“Surrender is unacceptable!”

The Emperor of the Empire showed his resolute will while displaying his anger.

Why is he so blatantly outraged?

This is because the current subjects have indirectly expressed their intention to acknowledge the end of the war directly to the emperor.

“In the history of the Empire, there has never been a single passage of shame like surrender recorded!”

“Your Majesty...

” “I don't want to hear it!”

Of course, I understand the pride issue.

But is that important now?

The servants watched the emperor's eyes and had similar thoughts.

Currently, at the edge of the territory of the proud empire, although it is still slow, the Ernesia Kingdom army is slowly taking over the land.

Still, is it time to insist on talking about the history of his proud ancestors?

“...Your Majesty, the current war situation is getting worse and worse.”

Eventually, the most courageous of the servants decided to speak directly to the emperor.

“. Marquis of Kwant... Are you also insisting on surrender?”

“Yes that's right.”

There was also the intention that they would not agree if they broke the alliance and surrendered.

“If we don’t win, there is no future.”

Of course, only destruction can be avoided.

However, how much compensation should be paid in the process of negotiating the end of the war?

And after that, will there be a proper future for their country?

Even if you can't do it, you already know that you won't be able to do anything for the next 10 years.

That's why they decided to fight until the end.

“But there is no point in just holding on.”

The king of the kingdom of Damaniel insisted that defense alone would not solve the problem.

Even at this moment, the Ernesia Kingdom army continued to gradually tighten their breath.

“....I agree. We must persevere, and in the end we will perish.”

Adran also bitterly admitted that fact.

The longer you have to drag it out, the more likely it is that the odds will gradually decrease.

“Or... I don’t know if there is a talented person like Ernesia’s youngest prince.”

The other two fell silent at the half-self-deprecating joke.

Hoping for a genius like him to come out in one's own country is no different from simply hoping for a miracle.

“I don’t think I can. If so, shouldn’t we try to compete in a short period of time?”

The Emperor sighed and decided to somehow find a way out rather than relying on miracles.

“I will do everything in my power to strike the Ernesia Kingdom army.”

All they could do was to squeeze out the rest of their strength and defeat the enemy somehow.

? ? ?

oh they're screwed now

“Foolish... really foolish...

I sighed alone as I watched the crowds of soldiers over there.

Those soldiers from the enemy country are now flocking in.

This is the answer that the Three Kingdoms Alliance came up with until the end.

They chose to cling to winning until the end.

Just in case, they didn't change.

Normal humans change once they get hit properly, but I guess they weren't normal idiots.

I understand your feelings.

Since it was a fight they fought, you can imagine that just because they let go of their swords, they wouldn't end it easily.

If it surrenders, it will not make any progress for the next 10 years due to losses from post-war processing.

At least for the future, it was clear that it would be made that way.

“...But that’s 10 years at best.”

I am not cruel either.

If he chose to surrender, he had the heart to mediate in the middle to some extent.

Anyway, I'm going to take advantage of the side.

However, I had no intention of neglecting the people of other countries starving to death while taking care of my own.

I was thinking of orchestrating it so that it ended with just a painful lesson.

‘You don't even notice that.'

The momentum of the soldiers of the Kingdom of Damaniel advancing towards the fortress is desperate.

It was a complete change of position.

Our kingdom of Ernesia was desperate to stand up to their aggression not too long ago.

‘It's self-employed.'

There is no more pity.

“...Did you think that after mobilizing so many soldiers, you would lose and then turn it over? Are you stupid? Fools are fools.”

Are these fools right? Let's confirm that yes.

Only sighs flow.

what. I still have the strength to squeeze it out, so I understand the feeling of looking forward to at least one last shot.

But war is not a sport.

No matter how lucky you are, there can never be a last-minute reverse electrode.

War is the only thing left behind is the cruel reality and all sorts of brutal deaths.

It was broken with more than twice the number of troops now, but now the number has decreased by half.

Do you still think you will win?

Do they really think that our kingdom of Ernesia got lucky and turned the tables in this fight?

It can't be.

It was a possible result because they prepared for today, one by one.

If you don't know that, then I have nothing more to say.

I decided it wasn't worth seeing anymore and turned my back.

What remains now will be their disastrous defeat.

I won't be able to get my hands on it anymore.
