Chapter 213: Postwar processing

Chapter 213: Postwar processingThe Sanctuary invasion by Divine Empire Sydnia and Triaria Kingdom[1] ended in failure.

A non-negligible number of people from the combined armies of the three kingdoms Valkyra, Lomaria, and Yggurle were killed in action. Triaria Kingdom lost more than 50% of their army, while those led by Divine Empire Sydnia were close to being totally annihilated.

The knights of Divine Empire Sydnia were immortal soldiers that didn’t stop until they died, which led to a war with mass casualties.

After the postwar proceedings finished, two countries among the Trination, Valkyra Kingdom and Lomaria Kingdom, discussed their response to Triaria Kingdom.

The countries that share a national border with Triaria Kingdom were Lomaria Kingdom, Divine Empire Sydnia, and Samandour Kingdom.

If they were to invade Triaria Kingdom, would Lomaria Kingdom attack independently? Or would they attack with Valkyra Kingdom’s cooperation? In that case, it would be necessary for Valkyra Kingdom’s troops to pass through Lomaria Kingdom.

There is a route that passes through the savage lands like what Triaria Kingdom and Divine Empire Sydnia had done this time, but there is little meaning in purposefully passing through a place teeming with monster nests and even taking unnecessary damage.

After that, the three countries discussed whether they should seek reparations to not invade.

Well, those things don’t concern me.

After the war ended, Akane and I were busy moving around to heal the injured. Once we were finally finished with that, we left some golem units at the forts and returned to the Sanctuary mansion.

「......Hey Takumi.」

「Yeah?」

When everyone was at the living room and passing the time relaxing, Akane called me.

「Akira and Yamato, ............are they perhaps already hopeless?」

「............their minds have already been encroached by too much miasma. But the problem is that they participated in Zealots’ mass murder of ordinary people, and their hands have been dyed with blood.」

「That’s it, isn’t it? I don’t know for sure about the war, but Akira and Yamato did massacre ordinary people.」Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

Yes, the Japanese boys known as Akira and Yamato committed acts of terrorism against Samandour Kingdom and Lomaria Kingdom, namely committing foolish crimes such as raiding villages and towns and massacring its residents.

The black haired and eyed youths stood out especially, their acts of brutality caught by the intelligence division of Lomaria Kingdom and Valkyra Kingdom.

However, I was met with vehement objection from Sophia and the girls when I said that.

「Takumi-sama, I will not leave your side.」

「Master(Husband), please take me along as well.」

「Takumi-sama, Laeva also finds staying at home disagreeable.」

「Lulu will not be separated from Akane-sama nya.」

「Sigh, it can’t be helped then. I’ll have to make an illusionary magic device.」

The infiltration operation seems like it would be with the full team.

The Trination’s discussion was apparently in disagreement.

Yggurle Kingdom, which had bad history with Triaria Kingdom, found only paying reparation to be insufficient and had taken the stance that they must use this opportunity to invade and strike back to some extent. However, because Lomaria Kingdom is adjacent to Triaria Kingdom, when Lomaria Kingdom thought about the refugees that would flow into their country, they were apprehensive of invading. Valkyra Kingdom was currently undecided.

The result of several days of convening, it’s been decided that the Trination’s united armies will march through Lomaria Kingdom to Triaria Kingdom.

In doing so, if the recommended surrender is abided by, Triaria Kingdom would be made to pay reparations and consent to several agreements. Or so it had been decided.

One of the agreements is the abolishment of the doctrine of human supremacy. The Trination would demand the release of illegal slaves and such.

The day after the plan was settled, the three countries began their preparations for the march.

During that time, we decided to gather as much information as we could on Divine Empire Sydnia.
