Chapter 344.2 - Side Story: Beastmen's Land II
Side Rigdalfa
“Excellent work, as ever. To build such a wall in such a short time.”
“Oh, Lord Rigdalpha. You too, thank you for your hard work.”
In front of me, the young man who was smiling is of the human race, Lysius Laurentia. A member of the branch of the Laurentian royal family that perished in the famous Laurentian tragedy, he is one of the court sorcerers of our beastmen nation. Speaking of Lysius of the Great Wall, he is also known as one of the best earth magicians on this continent.
It’s unthinkable that this softly smiling figure could raise the earth and bury hundreds of enemy soldiers in the blink of an eye. However, I know that behind that smile is a strong fighting spirit. He is the same age as me, and he is also a friend who has also fought on the battlefield with me many times since the first battle 30 years ago.
”I think you’ve gone through quite a lot, haven’t you?”
I’m sure they’re using the art of the Great Wall to build these walls, but I’ve heard they use quite a bit of magic. Furthermore, if he is to battle, his consumption must be tremendous.
“How can it be hard? I am merely doing this for the sake of protecting my place in this world. The Laurentians are now famous for being descendants of evil masters. It is a mockery in every country. It’s only here in the beastmen countries that people dare to fully accept me.”
“Is that so.”
“Yeah. And I think you’re reckless too. The White Rhinoceros’ heroic breakthrough was visible even from the top of the city walls. I didn’t think we’d go into the enemy lines with hundreds of infantry.”
“Fu ha ha. Because I can’t show my brother a pathetic fight now that my brother is gone.”
My name is Rigdalfa. I am the brother of Goddarfa of the Vajra Wall, the chief of the White Rhinoceros tribe and a close associate of the Beast King. And I am also the second-in-command for this battle against Bashar Kingdom. It is my natural duty to take the lead and inspire my allies.Alll latest novels at novelhall.com
“They plan to thoroughly denounce the Narasingha royal family as usurpers and are content with emphasizing the play of a woman of Krishna’s blood being made into a sufferable victim of the circumstances.”
“It also says that they have no choice but to lend a helping hand because they were indebted to the Krishnas’ in the past. And they also say that it is their duty as neighbors to denounce the usurper royal family and to restore the rights to the rightful royal family.”
It is tempting to question whether Bashar’s kingdom is sane enough to join forces with an evil person, but it may be that the odds were stacked against them. Besides, it seems that this letter has been distributed not only to our country, but to other countries as well.
A number of inquiries have been sent from our neighboring countries, which were addressed to the Commander. We’ll have to take care of that too. Each country seems to want to gauge the wind and take a careful look at the situation before doing anything else. Apparently, the same story has been circulating to other countries through channels other than the letter, and so far none country seems to think that the letter is complete bullsh*t, or rather, they couldn’t simply brush off this news as a complete joke.
“To meddle with the power of an evil god would be nothing but a foolish thing to do, in my opinion.”
“It’s very empathetic.”
“Well... that’s...... I’ve been struggling with it since I was young. As a child of an evil mage, there wasn’t a day that went by that someone didn’t throw a stone at me.”
“Linford, the wizard huh?”
“He disappeared before I was 10 years old, so I don’t remember much about him. Now that I think about it, he must have been mentally ill. He was an old man who always had a creepy grin on his face. I was picked up by the Beast King, but my father was despised for decades as a descendant of an evil mage, so maybe I can’t help it, but...”
“You still can’t find him?”
“Yes. To begin with, I’m a child from my father’s old age, and if he were alive,he would be nearly 100 years old. Maybe somewhere...... he already......”
“I’m sorry. I’ve been rude.”
“It’s okay. The reason I’m looking for him in the first place is that I’m going to hand him over to you. Instead of talking about him, let’s consult on that letter now.”
“Oh, yeah.”
It’s really annoying when they just say that they have the upper hand on the war.
