Day 69 Morning, Souvenir Store, Fake Dungeon.
After the worst transportation to another world, Ive had quite a few worst days,.. But no morning was as bad as this one. I mean, there is no tragedy worse for a highschool boy than welcoming a morning with more than 30,000 middle-aged men!
Kid, you are an early riser. Alright, prepare breakfast for 30 people. No, make it 40.
Im not early, I havent slept! I mean, with 30,000 middle-aged men around its too sordid for sleep. Moreover, I have to set up traps at Murimuri Castle while supplying the nobles army on the other side, so Im very busy?
Gathering around the strategy map in the morning, the nobles are getting into discussing should it go like this or like that. Well, thanks to the pointless instructions from those guys Im actually having an easy time, so they have their own use.
I mean, there is no way I could keep up with making traps, if the soldiers were allowed independent decision making. After all, 30,000 people are enough to entirely fill the Fake Dungeon.
If they tried to make use of their sheer numbers, and attempted to launch a swift attack all at once, then delay tactics wouldnt have worked, turning into simply a retreat battle with stone golems.
If theyve done so I wouldnt get a chance to rip them off, and it also wouldve quickened the Churchs movements.
And yet those guys keep making orders for every little thing and demanding reports on everything, Truly very useful middle-aged men with self-delay strategic capability and information leak function attached. Moreover, they are great customers (suckers) that I can rip-off as much as I want.
Id wish we could begin besieging the castle by the night. To think someone as noble as us would have to spend nights in such a hole.
Now now, just bear with it for today. Moreover, with this our families will also be counted among the heroic lineages that conquered a dungeon, so country bumpkins like Omui wont be able to act so arrogantly anymore.
Heroic lineage doesnt sound too bad, but to think it will lack in sensual entertainment so much.
You will have more than enough of that once we enter the Frontier. They might live in the sticks, but as rumors have it, the Frontiers women have both looks and charm to them.
From there, it took them another hour to find all of the trap steps All while middle-aged men kept endlessly sliding, slipping, and falling, getting their clothes melted, a true picture from hell! Wait, no way, could it be that this is what pres-san wanted to see?!
Suspicions of Pres-sama interest in stripping middle-aged men revealed? Yeah, shell beat me up if she hears this.
And 30,000 lunches are getting sold, they mustve started running out of their reserves Which makes sense, since I keep appropriating them.
The menu consists of just a thin water-like vegetable soup, the recipe directly learned from the orphans, and pieces of stone-like hard bread, but at least the quantity leaves nothing to complain. The orphans were having such meals daily, but with only meager portions.
They were desperately trying to survive on such food, so Ill accept no complaints about the cooking. Even that is too luxurious for those heading to kill people living at the Frontier.
All of the Third Divisions common soldiers seem to have fled by now. The Stalker Girls clansmen mustve been secretly working on guiding their escapes. However, the children of the nobility, making up the core of the Third Division are all gathered here.
They are the main culprits behind the power of the Royal Family over the army waning to the point of losing control over the Third Division. Well, while they are indeed children of noble families, they are still middle-aged men, so there is no issue with burning them.
However Will they be able to get outside before the night at this rate? Because as things are now, Im about to get a very humiliating for a highschool boy record of spending a day and night in a cave alongside more than 30,000 middle-aged men.
I mean, Ive been holding back the urge of burning them for 24 hours, and yet the exit is still nowhere in sight, this is testing the limits of my endurance!
Aaaaah, I want to burn, I want to burn, I want to burn them to cinders, even burned to ashes a middle-aged man wouldnt become a good middle-aged man, because a good middle-aged man is the one that didnt get born to begin with?
Armored Pres-san might already be on her way here. With this, one of them can be stopped, but its still too early. The Pres and others will arrive tomorrow at best. Well, as expected, tonight is impossible, so its most likely going to be tomorrow morning.
If normally, they should arrive sometime after noon. And Meripapa-san should take more than two days even if he travels with elites only. And he is probably going to be the very last one to depart. As for the Geeks and Slime-san Well, they arent going to make it in time.
So even if its on time, only three at best, the fourth and the fifth one will be left to me.
