216 Episode 10 War begins

"Well, kite. What do you think will be the first difficulty?

On my way to the eastern border, I taught the General a lot about this operation.

I'm ashamed to say it myself, but I'm not very smart, so I want you to tell me about the operation from 1 to 10, if possible.

Especially since I'm in a very important position this time, I can't do anything wrong.

"Don't you normally think about it as a border?

"That might happen. But I think it's unlikely."

"May I ask why?

"First of all, the border walls have not yet been completely restored. And in that poor west, we don't have enough food to support the war."

I see. Until we arrived in Muldeen, the land seemed to be really poor.

The general is convinced.

"So the Empire never fights at the border?

I see. Even if there is, it will be an ambush on the way. Well, even if two dragons just ambush me, I feel like I'm causing a lot of damage, but I'm beating my hand so I can't turn my hand to the ambush. "

Is that so? Was it a bandit to spread the enemy's power so they wouldn't ambush him?

I thought it was terrible, but this is certainly the only way to win.

Ah, I'm not at all suited for politics, strategy, or brains.

"So the first and last difficulty will be Muldeen?

"Oh, that's what I expected. Well, I think that Leon will make it easier for me to do something unexpected."

I think so, too. I know the general's brains are good, but Leo's brains are not flattering.

In politics, I can compete with Elaine... and after all, it's cheating to have memories of my previous life.

Ah, I have memories of my previous life, so is that your elder son?

"General! My God!

From the front, a man rushed in with great momentum.

Did something happen in front of you?

"What's wrong?

"Tons of red knights await near the border!

Red Knight!?

"What!? Didn't you know there were so many soldiers on the move?

"Leo's transfer skills?

Leo can move in a flash, right?

I was able to move King's City and Leo's Castle and the Demon King's Castle in an instant before.

It's as easy as an army.

"No, that skill can only be transferred with what you touch. So, even if we can move the soldiers, the number of people we can carry at a time is limited, and it takes at least a day. But Kate didn't see anyone on her way home, did she?

Yes, I crossed the border this morning.

At that time, you wouldn't have seen a single figure rather than a red knight.

"Yes, there was no one near the border."

"Ah, I was just driving my schedule crazy. Kate, we can't reduce the number of soldiers here. Reduce as many as you can."

"But I have to protect the Magic Cannon...."

My original mission until I arrived in Muldeen was to protect the cannon from Leo with a shield of light.

And yet, can I come forward and fight?

"Yes, but the priority is higher for soldiers. Without the Magic Cannon, it might be the last one, but without those bandits, it would be before we get to Muldeen."

"I see... I understand."

I just found out what Leo did to me.

Side: leon's

"All right, that's it."

I took all the golems out of my bag.

Armored soldiers lined up in a random fashion and unable to move as one would look scared from the enemy's perspective.

"This is an incredible number..."

"That's right. It was worth making a trick for years. Yeah."

Two thousand. Over the years, when there is room for magic and time, it is a product that I have persistently built by myself.

Ah. It's a real shame to lose everything here these few days.

But there's no substitute for human life.

"Isn't this enough to keep the kingdom under control here?

"No, I don't think so. Because the number is one digit different."

The opponent has nearly 10,000 bandits in total.

Enough refined and resilient Golems to demoralize the opponent.

"Really...."

"Well, if you reduce the number, you can make money, because if you break the magic cannon, it's banzai. Don't be greedy, just think about lowering their morale."

You can't help being greedy. After all, the Golems won't be able to do that with Kite.

I see.

"Oh, I can see the enemy."

While I was talking to Bell, I saw a Royal Army battle.

By the way, we're hiding in our invisibility cloak, so don't worry about being targeted.

"That's a really big number..."

"Looks like he put all the rest of his money into the war. If we lose, the kingdom will end."

Ten thousand people want to gather knights from all over the kingdom, hire mercenaries, and bring bandits.

I don't think it's much if I put it all into it.

That's right.

"Oh, Kite's out front."

As the army stopped advancing, a kite on the horse came out from behind.

I see. Have you made your choice?

"Is Magic Cannon Protected Good?

"Probably prioritized the bandits over you. For them, bandits are the key to this operation."

"What do you want to do? Do you want to switch maneuvers?

Originally, it was an operation to keep the Magic Cannon focused on Kite and reduce the number of bandits as much as possible in the meantime.

But that's impossible.

"That's right. You don't have to do this here... All right, Front Line Golem! Go flashy!

Change of plans, let the Golems on the front line be your enemies.

Side: edmond

"It's less than I thought. What do you think?"

Looking hard, is that 2,000?

If that were the case, it would be fine with Kite.

"Yes, I think we can handle this number. It's just...."

"But perhaps each and every one of them has the strength of a few of us?

It can also be. After all, Leon's knights are really full of monsters.

"Yes, I think so."

"Well, you'll be fine with that."

Leo will never pull a powerful card here.

I'm sure it's a soldier that can be erased. So don't worry.

Besides, what about magic cannons?

"It's in the back, so it won't break unless powerful magic comes flying."

Well, the Red Knights arrived at the Magic Cannon when we were all destroyed.

"Do you think there's a wizard in there?

As far as I can tell, that red knight has a sword... so there's no need to worry about magic.

"I can't say anything about that... There are no people on the walls so far, but they may just be hiding."

That's possible. After all, you should be prepared to break some of them.

"Really... Tell the knights. There's only one cannon to protect, and the others to throw away."

Roger that.

"Hmm, Kate... please."

I threw away the magic cannon. Definitely win.

Side: kite

"It's disgusting... Is it true that the person in front of you is human?

From the armored soldiers lined up a few meters away, I don't feel any tension before breathing or fighting.

Normally, when you see a crowd like this, your body trembles with a little fear, right?

Really, is that a person? It's like... a robot.

"Ghehe, are you freaking out, brave man?"

"Dasse, you can't beat us with that many people ~"

"Shut up, you guys, just think about not dying."

I ran my horse towards the Red Knight without worrying about the bandits.

Then....

Guahh

The flames were thrown out of the hands of the red knights, and the bandits shot him.

An unexpected attack stopped me.

"Ah, they can use their magic!

"Calm down! If I show you my back here, it'll be easy charcoal!

I managed to raise my voice and stop the bandits who were about to escape.

That's... that's good, right?

"Wizards don't get scared when they get close! Overwhelmed by the difference in numbers!

"I see. If you get close, you'll be scared! All right, you guys, let's go!

Oooh!!

Bandits began to move in unison at the command of a leader man.

Hmm, I managed to regain my morale.

"Okay, I have to do something before I lose my morale."

I ran a horse and slashed the Red Knight.

I thought... but I was avoided and I just cut off my arm.

"What? You're kidding, right? It doesn't have any contents."

The moment I cut off my arm and looked back at it with one more blow, I was stunned by the empty cavity in my armor.

"I see... Sounds like Leo."

This is it. Golem. I'm sure Leo built it.

Ha, you weren't expecting me to look like a robot.

"Damn it... Finally."

Upset by the lack of contents, the Golem was knocked down with a second shot.

It would take a hell of a lot of time to take this down...

"I can't help it. Use your skills."

Seeing the bandits getting knocked down, I decided to use the trump card quickly.

Actually, I didn't want to use it until the end...

Sei!

I wrapped the light around my sword and shook it sideways to slay the air in the direction of the Golem.

Then... the Golems in front of me fell down all at once.

"Well, if we take this down, the bandits won't be destroyed."

Side: leon's

I see, a sacred sword is such a skill.

I knew that the new skill and the new skill of the Holy Sword were increasing when I was appraised at the Tripartite Conference... I didn't think it was a flying slash.

"It's like Leo's usual flying slash. It's dangerous."

Well, if you're as alarmed as you are now, there's a chance that a large number of people will be killed in an instant.

"Well, I'm glad it's still within my expectations. Flying slashing is not something we can use."

It's very big to see now. If he had been hit by surprise, he might have suffered a lot of damage.

That's right.

"Ah, it looks like Sand Golem started his work."

Sand Golems are sand golems that can be made into complete sand and simulated on the ground.

This time, I invented this golem to carry out an ambush.

I think it's more vicious than the Red Golem because you'll never notice it if you can't sense its magic.

"That said, slow movement is the hard part."

Yes, when it comes to ambushes, they are very strong, but they are weak in the face of battle.

If you have five ordinary soldiers against you, you will be defeated easily.

After all, if you notice, it's the end of the golem.

"But you broke two. One more thing."

"No, I think I threw away the two and focused the knights on one. Look, you haven't broken one, have you?

I almost broke it. With that number of people, you couldn't handle the boulders.

"I see...."

"Well, there's only one thing I can do. Let's go home."

I can destroy the rest of the cannon... but I don't want to be alone in this war.

There are two reasons.

One is that we have a lot of support for the war.

If you gather people with support from the Empire and other nobles, and you don't use it, it's meaningless to get support.

The other is to alert other reincarnated people.

This time, I feel like a rebirth other than Kite is involved in this war. It was strange for the King to go around so much, and the Chancellor looked strange.

I'm sure those two shadows have reincarnated people.

I don't know what the reincarnated will do in this war, but I'm sure it's never been better to keep my strength alive.

Well, maybe it doesn't make sense to prepare for it...

"Master Leo? Soon, Kate will destroy the Golem."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

I moved quickly to the voice of Bell.

Thinking on the battlefield, what am I doing...
