Dungeon Defense

The meeting is over. It is finally a place to vomit about how inferior Humans are.

It was pathetic. Overestimating your enemies led to setbacks, but it was better than underestimating them. The newcomer Demon Kings were producing a losing factor by themselves. They had their excuses. We should encourage our allies before the battle begins.

“That's all for today's meeting. ”

The Zephyr Captain was exhausted. I did. I wasn't the only one who picked a bad one. Half of the people who came with the troops were like that, so it was worth it. If the newcomer Demon Kings were the vanguard of the enemy, then the battlefield was well completed. They're not masters. This side was demoralized before the battle even started.

I was about to leave the barracks holding my breath. Zepar summoned me.

“Dantalian. You stay. ”

“Yes? I understand. ”

You attach a half-lifted butt to the chair. I wonder what happened. The Demon Kings left and soon withered into the barracks. Zephyr and his deputy, me, Laura, there's four of them left. Zephyr looked at me seriously.

“My sixth platoon commander warned me. You're a trustworthy man. He said he couldn't be confident with mercenaries, but he was sure of his tactics. ”

I smiled bitterly. Another Barbatos. She was like a curly sister, a fragile lover, and sometimes a strong sister. It was the same in that neither side could be careless. It was an awkward Demon King.

“I follow one strategy. ”

“I was there when you defeated Pymon at Valpurgis Night. Let me show you how impressive it was to be tied up in 71st place with Pymon. ”

A compliment? This old man's expression remains unchanged. It was not a natural expression like Laffith, but an expression of dignity and innocence that had been stiffened for many years. These people were generally bad at expressing their feelings. You can take it as a compliment, honestly.

No, it's better to be a little modest... … It seems that Barbatos is not just the leader of the faction, but a target of personal respect. When I complimented Zephar himself, I had a fantasy that it sounded like flattery. Use your opponent's worship here.

“Thank you. But the hearings were not entirely my strength. If Captain Barbatos hadn't helped us so closely, he wouldn't have dared to go against Pymon. ”

“Hmm.”

Zephar nods. The sound was satisfactory. I thought I could hit it again and go in.

“It was during the hearing that I realized that the commander was serious, unlike what the commander had known at the time. Maybe you're using impertinence on purpose or just being careless by other factions…… You have both the momentum and the spirit. Here's why we call it the Humanitarian subjugation. The Plains are also a force. No one is better suited to the monarchy than Lord Barbatos. ”

“I agree with you. ”

It's been a long time since I heard the effects of tying!

The love of the Demon King Zepar has increased by 5!

The feeling of accomplishment spread shallow in my heart. The user knows what the target wants and uses it to its advantage. Even with a simple victory, I feel better if I succeed. For a long time, I thought my true specialty was to build rapport. So far, I have never failed at hunting or liking.

Zephar said.

“I trust the commander, and I trust the commander. But if I wanted to act under my command, I couldn't help but test it. Dantalian, I'm the one who's been spying on you. ”

“I see.”

I am a fool. Dory Zephar frowns slightly.

“You're not surprised? ”

“Dare I say, Sir Jeffer is aware of the mission of the vanguard. Friendly disagreements are the most cautious of events. But for a week after the march began, you did not intervene in any neurological warfare between the Demon Kings. I thought there was more to it than just building an army. ”

“Hmm, I got it right. ”

The love of the Demon King Zepar has increased by 2!

Zephar looked at me deeply.

“Maybe you're more tactician than tactician, more tactician than tactician. But the commander has assigned you to the vanguard. Tactical victory comes first and foremost. Do you know what this means? ”

“ ……. ”

I haven't thought about it. Let me see if I can learn something from you. I take it to mean that much.

I didn't need to intervene in military action for at least two months anyway. It was a relaxing time. The 71st sequence is probably a disadvantage to plotting, so we have no choice but to create a position with the air force...... Maybe there was something else to it.

Zephar was jealous of me when he thought about it.

“Ami in 58th place. ”

I wondered why he brought up the story about Ami all of a sudden, but I heard it quietly. From now on, you will solve the question.

“I was originally unaffiliated and volunteered to join the Plains around the time the Moon Alliance formed. As the new Demon King, there is no place for him in our faction. Join the vanguard, build a ball, and use it to strengthen your position. Captain Barbatos was very considerate of you. ”

“Ah. That's why you spoke so harshly. ”

I wanted to know why three newcomers were assigned to the important vanguard, but there was such a lining. Obviously Barbato and I had our differences. What was important to me was the general situation of the Moon Blind Army. But Barbatos, the leader of the Flatlands, had to take care of his faction. Understood.

But three. Too many. A vanguard that will decide the war on the 8th moon. Are you optimistic you're okay with such a lame member, Barbatos?

Zephar looked at my face and smiled a little later. Wrinkles were naturally pushed into the shell. It was a smile that could only be made by a handsomely old man. If I was a dandy girl, I might have fallen for a laugh.

“You still haven't figured out the Master's intentions. ”

“Yes?”

“He gave you a chance to build your own men. ”

What are you talking about?

When I looked at him with a face that I didn't know what was in English, Zephar said.

“The captain gives you his word. How long will you only help me in the shadows? Build your forces before the real battle begins.... You must really be trusted by the commander, Dantalian. ”

“ ……! ”

I opened my eyes. I see! I see!

Barbato didn't just send me on the front lines to build a shaman. I was told to enter the plains recently and make them the base of my power, the three weakly positioned Demon Kings.

What would have happened if the three Demon Kings were divided into different units, not the vanguard? You found a Demon King higher in rank than yourself who would defend you, and you retaliated. The plains do not make Barbato reign like the Emperor. Below Barbatos again, several Demon Kings are forming small forces. Three new arrivals would have melted into those forces in an instant.

However, I sent three people to the front of the line, purposely stumbling. The vanguard was made up of only six Demon Kings, even with the commander Zephyr combined. Three out of six of them, and similar Demon Kings…… Of course, they played amongst themselves.

The blacksmith, Zephyr, was happy to live as Barbato's henchman without creating a separate force. The Demon King of the other one was not of the highest order. At least there was no one in the vanguard who could convince the three newcomers to join their forces.

The purpose of the three is no longer to be escorted into any force. I want to, but I can't. Building up as many aircraft as possible to strengthen their position, it must be their biggest and only goal. I don't know what else to do.

In other words, there were three unspoken Demon Kings inside the plain that had already completed the plot of power.

There has never been a more subtle opportunity for anyone to form a new force. No, Barbato created that opportunity! 'Give the rookies a chance to build a ball'.

"Am I supposed to eat those three people? You want me to help you, not just by the shadow, but by your side...! ’

A tremor happened.

Barbato's delicacy far exceeded my expectations. Maybe I was underestimating Barbato in the corner of my mind. The girl who got drunk on wine and fell for this trick, could she have unconsciously considered it that...? Stupid!

‘Damn it. I was cautious because I painted the whole picture of the war. ’

I admit, I honestly thought the pursuit of power wouldn't be too late after the war. However, in Barbato's eyes, I had to raise a force sooner or later. The situation was perceived more desperately by others than by the parties.

Newcomer Demon Kings were at least trying to establish their own position. What am I if they're just idiots? He was a fool, a fool who jumped over a fool. I laughed at their foolishness. I never thought about why those fools belonged to the vanguard...

“Your eyes have changed. ”

Zephar said, "I've lowered my waist deeply. I meant it this time.

“Thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have remained a fool until the war was over." I will repay this debt to the military. ”

“Don't mind him. The commander told me to show you the tactics. Take this opportunity to see how the battle with Humans goes. ”

Oops, even Zephyr was a home-schooler sent for me…… My perception was somewhat distorted compared to Barbatos. For me, if the vanguard had not been before, it would have been the beginning of war for Barbatos.

I felt frustrated. Suddenly, during the meeting, I remembered what Zephar emphasized.

‘Our intention is not to make a mistake in one unit, but to make a mistake in the sixth legion, and furthermore the entire Moon Blind Army. Right now, we are representing the entire Moon Blitz! The 6th Battalion must move as one. Solitary action is never acceptable. ’

I thought that was just a warning to the new Demon Kings. On the contrary. More than anyone, I had to carve my bones. The magnetism spread throughout my body on my spine. I wonder what I've heard. Do you have a "I'm not like them" and a sense of superiority on a level 21 subject? You son of a bitch.

It was just like Zephyr said. Our vanguard represented the entire Lunar Army. It was unacceptable to underestimate our allies. I had to build an army in this war, and I had to turn three Demon Kings into my own. Caution was not allowed in this matter.

That's why I saluted Zephyr with the utmost passion.

“Small, I must learn your command. ”

“Well, you're free to go. ”

I thought out of the barracks.

Yes, this is Barbato's surprise. I couldn't even be a proper adult if I didn't get the gift properly. It's a gift from a girl, how much more can I say?

Good. Let's see you grow up to meet your expectations, Barbatos. I'll surprise you later...... It'll be my surprise gift to you and my greatest reward.
