Another Life

On Sunday, July 10, A.D. 8, when Zumei attacked the soldiers of the Desert Sub-union, it was on the Southern Continent that the Kingdom of Enburg, the Principality of Antonym, declared war on the Eastern Union and began marching on the Kingdom of Fresia as well as on time.

Initially, Lakes intended to assume responsibility for the Principality of Antonum, which possesses new weapons, but from the Eastern Union, the Principality of Antonum became Lucio the general and Lakes the general of the kingdom against Emburg.

Lakes was dissatisfied with this, but soon understood that the air force using a large, one-legged bird called Takuhi was more amazing than the presence of a new weapon in the Principality of Antonym, which he followed with great admiration.

The city of Gunny on the border between the kingdoms of Fresia and Emburg was garrisoned with five thousand White Wolf Knights and the guards of the kingdom of Fresia, and a total of forty thousand other armies, separated around a thousand, were stationed near the border.

This was the formation to deal with the Emburg kingdom because it had subdivided the army in order to attract more Eastern Union soldiers to the Southern continent rather than marching together.

In the hall of such Lords of Gunny, Lakes had received a written declaration of war from the Kingdom of Emburg, from a slave who was a messenger.

"But although it is a long written declaration of war letter with Chintara, the point would be a declaration of war. I've always thought that the king of the Emburg kingdom has no talent."

As if grabbing dirty objects, to the words of Lakes, who grabs a praprapra and a letter in front of his own eyes, the slave messenger asks a question, turning his face bright blue.

"So… has the intention of declaring war in our country been conveyed?

In this southern continent, when it comes to declaring war, such a messenger was at the service of slavery because of the likelihood of buying anger and being killed, of course, when it came to declaring war, it would write in a letter how his own country would attack his opponent for good reason and send him to a city near the border of the other country before launching the attack.

And it came to pass, that the man of slavery, bewitched by Guillaume and Lakes, shook his body in dismay, and Lakes smiled and answered.

"Of course, but now we have a great name to destroy the Kingdom of Emburg. Bash, give the messenger who brought this letter his reward and return him safely to the Kingdom of Emburg."

"I'm in awe"

In the words of Lakes, Bash, who had two names, the famous white devil in the Kingdom of Emburg, was a slave to wonder whether he had become under the authority of the Kingdom of Fresia, but Lakes looked worried and told the slave.

"O messenger, if my master finds out that the slave has the hardware, he will be deprived. So hide it unknowingly.

And if you want to be freed from slavery, you may flee to the kingdom of Cesar. My daughter's son-in-law's country is a good place to live freely, even if she is a slave.

If you tell the people of the kingdom of Ceasel that's what the eagles said, they will necessarily accept you with the same treatment as the civilians "

All of a sudden, to the words of hope, the slave brightened his expression and questioned Lakes.

"Um! How can you help me, a slave of another country?

Lakes answered the slave question with a laugh.

"Apparently, Washi was also poisoned by his daughter's son-in-law, the king of the kingdom of César, who seemed to have the same life of the slaves... many slaves in our country still despise them. But in the kingdom of Cesar, few have said so.

Besides, I don't know. This is what Washi said about the economic foundation of the Kingdom of Emburg, a ploy to take slaves… so that they would feel a little more comfortable "

I'll say it often. The truth is, that's what you're here for.

Who, I think, tells slaves the real ploy. To put it this way, I really thought about the slaves and suggested, you look like a good monarch.

It becomes a reputation and all returns to itself… the boulder is His Majesty's master. Plenty of con artists, too, are pushing through.

With that in mind, looking at the slave's messenger, who was unexpectedly lying down and thanking him in front of Bash, Bash gave Teodoro a signal to send him safely into the realm of the Kingdom of Emburg, and when the slave left the room, he said to Lakes with a bewildered face.

"Your Majesty Lakes is more of a fraud than my Majesty."

To Bash's words, Lakes smiles and answers unexpectedly.

"Better than when the left-hand proximity was a nostril kid, the eagles have fought, this would be normal. But I still don't know if the minister thinks it's any lower than the eagle.

But that snotty kid also grew up and made a great army called the Eastern Coalition... there, let's admit it. Well, let's go. "

Having said that, Lakes stood up, and took Bash, and went to the separate chamber, and there were the roys, and the nobles of the Fresian kingdom, and the vice-presidents of the White Wolf Knights.

And a map of the southern continent was placed on a large table in the centre, on which were various pawns, large and small, and when he saw the two men who entered the room, Roy said:

"Apparently, you returned the messenger safely."

"So what if I can't do this? So, what's the war situation?

That said, Roy replied with pleasure to Lakes' attitude that somewhere made the child rush to buy a toy.

"The combination of Beyond the Seeker and the Correspondents, conceived by the Left Near, is phenomenal and truly astonishing. Anyway, everything on this tabletop can move the army instantly.

The Kingdom of Emburg, as expected, has spread many soldiers along the border and has crossed the border, but the defense and the White Wolf Knights have all of a sudden been devastated in the first battle… but it seems that the Air Force has not yet emerged. "

To the words, Lakes put his hand on his chin and thought for a while, and replied that it seemed uninteresting.

"If you know about the firepower and communications networks of the Eastern Union, it's natural that this should happen. If we are to counter the firepower of the Eastern Union, there are only millions of man-made maritime tactics… making it small this way is also tantamount to suicide.

Besides, having spread the front too far, I guess I haven't been able to communicate my orders well. Withdraw the soldiers immediately, without being able to assemble them, and only increase the damage in vain.

Nevertheless, did Enburg, after all, send all the air forces to the Kingdom of Ceasel? Well, in a situation where there might be a battle for a subhuman coalition, that's a natural choice. "

"It seems like a good opportunity to march to the Kingdom of Emburg, but Your Majesty doesn't seem to be amused."

Lakes nods and answers to Bash, who unintentionally asks questions.

"Exactly. This battle seems to have been all dined up by the left-hand side, and nothing is funny.

The Kingdom of Emburg will think that even if we were able to deal with it, we would struggle with an overstretched front. However, with the communications network built by the left-hand side, we can move all our armies like creatures... as if the common sense of the continent could not prevail, the armies of a new era. "

The aristocrats of the Fresian kingdom who were present were surprised to see such an attitude of Lakes for the first time, and it was Bash who spoke to Lakes.

"But then, would it have been better if His Majesty had gone to the Principality of Antonym, too?

Anyway, the Principality of Antonum seems to have new weapons. "

It was the nobles who nodded to agree with Bash's words, but Lakes replied with a grin.

"We shall have at Lucio's place a man equal to or greater than the eagle. I'm not worried."

To his surprise, anyone but Roy wonders and asks if Mardi is referring to Bernard, who was not here and accompanied by Lucio as his deputy general.

"Are you Count Schlester?

To the words, Lakes nods and answers.

"Dear Left, Bernard is also the godson of the eagle, and the left proximity of the same godson is the greatest masterpiece of the eagle, but also the one whose original character, being a samurai, wants to fight once... but Bernard is not.

Because his character is different from that of a samurai, he seeks victory thoroughly. He who has more head than a crocodile and doesn't want to fight his heart out. "

Yes, among Maida's brothers, I don't feel like I can beat Kiyobu, who most resembles his father's bullet Zhengzhong, who is more than a warrior.

With that in mind, he stood up with a grin and decreed against the nobles who looked surprised.

"The abominable concentration of the Air Force in the north is a great opportunity now that we have won the first battle. We will attack the Kingdom of Enburg once and for all!

"Ooh!"

The faces of the aristocrats who stood up in that way were tempered by the expression of each and every one of them because they could see that they could unite the southern continent, which was gradually a grief.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

By that time, Bernard, regarded by Lakes as more than himself, had garrisoned in Sanois, a fortified city on the border with the Principality of Antonum, with the nobles and guard soldiers of the kingdom of Fresia, including Lucio, the prince of the kingdom of Fresia, and Count Ronnie Chizam, whose aunt and daughter had married Lucio, and with the soldiers of the SS Knights.

Sanois, when Lakes fought the Duchy of Antonum for many years, was a fortified city where he lived. For some reason, the building was Western-style architecture, but the design, called the rope, was built somewhere on a hilltop, a rope like the castle of the Imperial Ruthai Empire.

At its main location, a tower about ten stories high, whether it was a wolf smoke table or a watchtower, was built next to the palace, and at its top, a wildfire was currently installed.

Unlike the Kingdom of Emburg, which is such a fortified city of Sanois, the Principality of Antonym divided the army into three armies and gave this Sanois 50,000 of the main power, which now came just outside Sanois.

In addition to Lucio and Bernard, who saw the Army of the Principality of Antonym coming from above the main gate, Eli was promoted to vice president of the SS Knights. Such three eyes could see the main force of the Principality of Antonym coming from across the street.

"Count, would you really be all right?

Because of nervousness, Bernard on his spare face answered Lucio, who asks questions with a slightly trembling voice.

"It's okay, all the other troops in the Principality of Antonym are in the hands of the Allied Intelligence Service and are dealt with by Count Chizam and the SS Knights. Later, it will depend on the prince's performance to win or lose this battle"

"Wow, I know... but does the Principality of Antonum have a new weapon?

Bernard replies with a smile to Lucio, who is under extra pressure and hardens his body even harder.

"Don't worry about me. The only way to light a weapon like that that doesn't have a brain is if you put it in the castle. If we use it in the castle, we'll be on fire.

Such a weapon would have been amazing to us before, but now that the weapons and forces of the Eastern Union are on our side, it's not amazing or anything. So His Majesty the Lakes, the Air Force was assigned to a troublesome Enburg offensive... more than that, Lord Deputy Commander, what arrangements are there in the castle?

"Already done as instructed by the Count and evacuated to the residents' palace."

"Then you're all set for dinner. Well, Prince, let's take it easy."

Earl Schlester...... In the previous world, the brother of Maida, said to be Shinano's serpent in this world, who received his teachings from his father's previous life. In the story of Qing Xing, he says he was more than himself an intellectual and conspiracy general.

My father said I should leave everything to the Count... are you sure you're okay?

To Bernard, who spoke brightly, was Lucio, who looked anxious, but before such Lucio and the others, a slave approached him with a writ.

"You'll be stopped there! It is His Royal Highness Lucio Fresias Garcia, the First Prince of the Kingdom of Fresia!

To Eli's voice, when the slave stopped his leg and knelt, he turned to Lucio.

"I am an emissary of the Principality of Antonym…"

"I know it's a declaration of war! They'll come in such a big army and they won't have any friendship! So, when are you saying we're gonna fight?

Answer Lucio, who blocked his words, even with a face that says slaves are hard to do.

"The day after tomorrow, in the Bellina Plains, northwest of here, with the sunrise!

"Hahaha! What a long story the day after tomorrow. The bloody soldier on this side is ready to wage war at any time.

I'll wait for you till noon when the sun comes to the top! Go back to formation and tell them to lift that heavy hips!

"Ku...... may I convey your words as they are!

"What, the principality's messenger, communicates the word differently?

To Lucio's provocative attitude, the slave, looking remorseful, glanced at Lucio once and went straight back to his formation, but Lucio's feet were trembling and the tension could be seen. Bernard pounded Lucio's hips, who was so nervous, and said:

"The boulders, you're His Majesty's son. You've been so well provoked with your aggressive addiction."

"No... I'm obsessed, I don't know what..."

"At first, that's what it is. Still, it's quite promising that you didn't have to put it on your face."

Bernard praised Lucio, who unwittingly brightened his expression, smiled and said, "Let's move on to the next stage," slapping Lucio on the shoulder.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Meanwhile, in the main army of the Principality of Antonum, among the nobles outraged by Lucio's words, there were five horns growing on their heads, and the Great Ghost (Auga) sat there looking uninteresting. This man was the Monarch of the Principality of Antonum, the Grand Duke of Dinant Antonum.

The Grand Duke, with his cheekstick on his cheeks not to seem funny, sighed, and the nobles stopped perfectly, and when he paid attention to the Grand Duke, the Grand Duke replied, seemingly uninteresting.

"I thought Lakes was a good opponent of mine, headed to Emburg, and this one was Lucio the Trinket... because I thought I could settle with Lakes.

Besides, they will not let the messengers into the castle because they do not understand the small number of soldiers. Bloody young man without surrender or negotiation... boring. "

Even if slashed with a blade, the Grand Ghost (Auga) of the Principality of Antonym obviously looked down on a handful of Lucio and the Grand Duke stood up and said to the ability of the overwhelming flesh to do nothing but scratch.

"I'll show the young monk our horrors! Arrange the new weapons up front and burn them!

"Ooh!"

By the decree of the Grand Duke, the nobles moved out in unison, backing the woods, and aligned themselves before the great gates of Sanois.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Noon when the sun went high. The Duchy of Antonum had aligned the showdown before, but the Eastern Coalition did not show up.

On the contrary, the figure of the soldier standing on the wall also disappeared, and now, on the main gate, there was Lucio and Bernard, side by side with a chair and a table, pointing to chess, just as Eli was there to protect the two of them.

Was the Principality of Antonym annoyed by the troops of the Eastern Union, who never came out, when one soldier approached him on horseback and spoke to the three above the major gates?

"The carving limit is already over! How's your soldier?

Lucio laughed and said the obvious question.

"Hahaha! I didn't know they were really waiting for you, dumb, honest people everywhere. I really enjoyed watching your sloppiness!

That loud voice of Lucio, even heard to the forefront of the Principality of Antonym, and when he entered the ear of the Grand Duke, who had seen him in the forefront, he folded with force, and threw him to the ground, and cried out, to the baton in his hand.

"Bring those young monks before me! Kill all the others! Siege weapons forward!

"The catapult is still incomplete?

And he said unto the angry archduke, and to the apologizing soldier, and the archduke beckoned the soldier.

"You don't need that stuff! One thing, start a total attack now!

By order of the Grand Duke, three of the great gates laughed and watched as the tower of siege, under the great arrowhead, with wheels on it, or under the roof, with wheels on the great whole Tai, began marching with the flamethrower of the new weapon and many soldiers, Eli said to Bernard.

"Out of the blue, you ate easy."

"At any rate, I would have looked down on His Highness Lucio. From those who looked down, when they were fooled, they were unnecessarily angry... well, we did what we planned."

To Bernard, who said so, Eli bowed his head and connected the space transfer to the main circle, the three disappeared as they were, and a soldier on the tower of siege that approached him saw how it was on the walls of the castle and shouted at the commander below.

"Above the walls, there is no appearance of enemy soldiers!

To the words of the soldier, both the commander and the questioner gave the order.

"Keep it up, secure the castle gate! The new weapon stays intact, breaking through the gates at once and falling into an avalanche in the castle!

In the words of the commander, the soldiers roared and moved the broken hammer to the castle gate, but it was not upon the castle gate, and the gate was opened easily.

No way, you've already escaped?

Though everyone thought so, it was the Principality Army of Antonum, which collapsed once and for all into the castle, but the large streets in the castle were lined with thick wooden fences alternating from left to right, making it difficult to move on to the main circle.

If he had come this far to the boulder, any man would have thought it was a trap, and without breaking the fence, he proceeded toward Honmaru, being vigilant.

In order to prevent looting, even though the entrance and exit windows were tightly sealed off and the townships on two floors were alert, the Principality of Antonym troops proceeded to Zigzag and arrived in two circles, yet there were no Allied attacks.

When I got here, I thought I had abandoned the city and fled with a space transfer of brave men to boulders, but when I approached Honmaru, the coalition shooting from Honmaru began.

The bullets fired from Honmaru were all demon bullets, and for the first time an explosion was heard from the rear, where soldiers of the Principality of Antonym's Army were surprised and confused to cause damage in a ranged attack.

"What's up!? What happened!?"

A confused commander screams to grasp things at all, and a soldier enters a surprise report.

"I don't know! Suddenly, when I thought something had come down from the sky, it suddenly exploded!

To the soldier in his face, who said he had no idea what it meant, the commander tried to hit him with frustration, and he heard a noise from the main gate and the castle gate of the second circle fighting the explosion.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

"The capture of the castle gate is our top priority! Enemy soldiers on the walls, good afterwards!

In the major gates where Eli's voice rang, a fierce battle had begun, by the SS Knights and the Duchy of Antonym.

In addition to the power of the first Demon Bullet you see, all the weapons in your hand have the necessary skills, and the Great Ghosts (Augs) were confused in the battle to taste it for the first time.

"Daimon control complete!

Eli gives further orders when the voice of his subordinate enters the ear of Eli, who blew the head of the Great Ghost (Auga) with a demon bullet.

"All right, lay down on the castle gate and kill them all!

"Ooh!"

The Knights of the SS replied to Eli's order with a temperamental voice, turning to the fleeing enemy soldiers and raining demon bullets with gatling cannons and new machine guns, beyond the fierce explosion sound and smoke, a hellish misery was spreading.

Even as he looked sideways at it, Eli came out with an oily kettle that was hidden in the corner of the wall, causing a space transfer over the flame radiation while destroying the siege tower attached to the wall with a demon bullet.

One soldier puts his face in the space transfer, checks ahead and shouts at Eli.

"Lieutenant, you can go!

"All right, throw it!

To Eli's decree, when the knight dropped a large pot of oil into a space transfer, the oil falling from above struck a flamethrower with a spark, enveloping the perimeter of every surrounding soldier in flames.

Suddenly, the Grand Duke watched the battlefield where the firepillars rose and screams could be heard, without knowing what the point was.

Hey, what's going on?

Suddenly, when I thought I heard a loud noise, the castle gate closed and the siege tower was blown up and the flamethrower burned... is this some new magic or something?

In the ear of the Grand Duke, set on the rooftop of the tower of Honmaru, the roar of wild guns rang, and behind the roaring Grand Duke, the explosion broke out, and it was in the eyes of the Grand Duke, who was blown up and fell from the horse, whether it was the effect of the blast, or the sight of being struck by an organ and dying, that entered his eyes.

With a tough flesh, the Grand Duke, who has known only an overwhelming battle until now, was incomprehensible, but the sound of wild guns rang as he pursued further into the ears of such a Grand Duke.

Ruthlessly, in the rain of the shells that were fired in one after the other, the Grand Duke did not unexpectedly wake his body up, holding his head with fear, and when he was on the spot, soldiers began to flee to the woods, to escape from this hellish attack.

As if we knew the soldiers had begun to flee, when the wildfire shelling stopped, countless gunshots rang out of the woods next.

Along with the gunfire, he also heard the explosion, and the soldier's whistle rang, and a soldier fleeing into the woods came this way so that he could be driven away by something, but a few of them, the moment they came out, were blown away and collapsed on the spot.

No way. Ambush in here?

In the eyes of the Grand Duke, who thought so, he saw the Fresian Kingdom Guard coming out of the woods, shooting rifles and machine guns.

Is this some kind of magic?

No, I'm not chanting, so this is not magic! More than that, we have to do something about this situation now.

The Grand Duke, who instantly switches his mind, managed to get up and scream while enduring the fear of the bullets he sees at first.

"Everybody, don't be frightened! Line up, calm down and deal with it!

In the words of the Grand Duke, the nobles gather the surviving soldiers to line up and attempt to attack the defensive forces. But when the Grand Duke discovered, behind the woods, that a female soldier of the coalition he saw for the first time was talking about something, shelling resumed from the tower, and shelling resumed where it had gathered.

In an attempt to counter the defensive forces, the Grand Duke shouted even as he beat the ground with remorse to the vicious circle that if he gathered, he would be shelled, and if he fell apart, he would destroy each one by the defensive forces.

"Retreat! Retreat!

"Oh no! Are you telling me that the people who invaded the castle will abandon them!

Unexpectedly to the opposing soldier, the Grand Duke told him to shout at the falling soldier when he waved his fist down.

"You bastard! If you keep doing this, you can't see that this side will be wiped out without defeating anyone!

The Grand Duke told him the reality, and even as he saw the soldier weeping in regret, the Grand Duke screamed with his lips bitten.

"Retreat! Just think about throwing everything away and going back to your country! Don't ever let them squeeze you!

The Grand Duke, who said so, was disputed by the soldiers who ran apart at the same time and began to withdraw.

But, naturally, the ambush's defense team began a heavy pursuit, but the Grand Duke managed to escape to the Principality of Antonum even though he lost his left arm because the sun had fallen.

And within the main 50,000, only three hundred escaped safely, ending in scattered results, and many soldiers were taken over, but the Grand Duke received even more alarming reports.

All the other armies that broke up and started invading the Fresian kingdom were defeated before the firearms of the Eastern Allies, and the flamethrowers they expected as new weapons did not work at all.

Moreover, the loss of many soldiers prevented the people of the Principality of Antonym from hiding their defeat, and those who deserted the country continued to flee.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

"I'll report you. It's from the Philip squad in the pursuit unit.

Because the sun has fallen, it seems difficult to pursue any further, and we ask for instructions to withdraw. "

Lucio sees Chirali and Bernard when a correspondent reports to Lucio, who sat in a chair, in a room like the Allied Intelligence Agency, set in the palace of Honmaru.

Then Bernard nodded, saying that no further pursuit was necessary, and Lucio turned to the telecommuters.

"Tell Viscount Yorgo Philippe.

No further pursuit is useless. I want you to gather your soldiers and return immediately. "

Copy that, sir.

"I'll report you. It's from Captain Gudduan of the SS Knights.

No enemy shadows outside the castle and within sight of the castle. Now, leaving a minimal defense force, the SS wants to head to sweep the remaining enemies in the castle. "

"I'll leave it to the captain. But tell them not to take the lives of those who wish to surrender, but to disarm them and gather them in the palace."

"I'm in awe"

That said, when Lucio saw the telecommuters contacting him in the reading, Bernard talked to him satisfied.

"That's exactly what you said. Now, even after the war, the soldiers who survived conscription will thank His Highness for his grace."

I'll say it often. Even if you kill all the prisoners, you can use it to connect to the next one.

But now I know exactly what my father and Kiyohiro said about Bernard as a more intelligent and conspiratorial general than myself.

No way I would invite enemies into the castle, split from the main unit, and move and slap soldiers behind the main unit with a space transfer... Normally like this, I wouldn't even think about it.

The ordinary, even though it was horrible to just let the enemy soldiers in the castle, Bernard carried it out plainly thinking about it. Let's try to provoke them even more, make them deliberately angry, make them penetrate... I'm horrible in the heart.

When he was feeling fear of Bernard when he betrayed him, the door of the room opened wide, and the Earl of Thizam came in smiling.

"Congratulations on this victory! As I heard earlier in the hallway, you heard that even His Majesty won the Grand Ghost of the Principality of Antonum (Auga) without a single casualty!

Lucio answered with dissatisfaction to the tense Thizam whether the excitement could not subside.

"I was more clumsy when I fought in the Luthai Empire, kind of clapped out, I don't know how to be happy. More than that, what happened to you?

"They say what. Um, compared to the Ruthai Empire, it's called cruelty.

Our defense team also won big, the other SS Knights won big, and soon, Captain Gudduan will come this way. If the captain comes, it's finally the invasion of the Principality of Antonym.

If His Highness could accomplish the attack of the Principality of Antonum, which His Majesty did not accomplish, the people would be relieved to hear His Highness's successor say His Highness. My daughter, Irene, will be delighted. "

With his wife's name appearing, Lucio was blushing a little and seemed to stink, and to hide the lights, he stood up and ordered the soldiers under his command.

"Gather the nobles and bring the map of the Principality of Antonym, and start the military debate with this. As soon as you finish sweeping the remaining enemies in the castle, leave your guard soldiers to drink and cook and feed them sharply for the coming Duchy of Antonum attack."

To Lucio's words, Bernard grabbed the heart of a soldier and thought that the emotions that were anxious under Lucio's command would turn into loyalty on the contrary.

After that, Bernard was never on the table at the military conference, and by standing Lucio, he made Lucio's position as the successor to Lakes a rock.

This overwhelming victory of Sanois was reported by the newspapers of the Askray Chamber of Commerce throughout the kingdom of Fresia, and everyone was pleased that Lucio was equal to or greater than Lakes, whose fame rang inside and out.

And the fame continued to ring in the Principality of Antonym, where those who surrendered to Lucio, who had begun the invasion, had generously entertained all of it, and the Principality of Antonym, with only one defeat, had been attacked to the present day of annihilation.
