From Mightiest Hero to Demon King

The Demon King Dagon starts to work. I knew it earlier, but the question was when to start. The more time passes, the stronger both sides will be.

Dagon draws demons and pirates from its home island. Bernese hires mercenaries from nearby cities.

For now, the Dagon has more troops and is dominant. I will fight within three days.

Share the findings with everyone. Nothing doubted my words, but some dare to ask questions.

This is Marco Polo. He asks.

"The enemy is stuck in a strong fort. Will you forsake it and attack?"

"I will attack you. If you stay in the fort, you won't lose, but you won't win. Over time, the Dagon side is less favorable."

"The reason is?"

"Because the Bernese side has more economic power than the Dagon. Even with the addition of innovative merchants, the difference will not be filled."

"I see, it makes sense. There are many gold coins in the Council's treasury."

"Before you use it to hire a lot of mercenaries, I will decide. This maritime city is rich, but its defense is weak."

"Because we are thinking only about trade, we have no barriers.

"There is also reinforcements from the surrounding powers, right?"

"Oh, I will arrive within three days."

"Then the enemy will set up within three days. Let's do that."

I call Fuma Kotaro. He has to go to the island of Dagon and rescue Fianna.

"I think it is possible, but it may take some time."

"I'm aware of it. Please rescue me safely."

"Wish"

A ninja that disappears like the wind. Then I look at Eve. She has a dissatisfied face.

"I have a bad feeling.

"I don't have that feeling. I'll have Eve act as a master this time."

Eve reacts to the words with a smile. It is pretty.

"This time, Eve is the staff member, the right wing is Toshizo Hijikata, and the left wing is Jeanne d'Arc."

"It's a great idea, but what happens to Ryoma?"

Ryoma complains.

"Yes, yes, I'm a merchant, but I'm better off than a maid."

"I know, so I want Ryoma to pick up reinforcements coming to the neighborhood."

"I see, the eagle is in charge of that."

“Yes.

"Okay. Leave it to me. This Ryoma is a good skill to outwit others."

Expecting her, she left immediately. Thanks to Marco Polo for seeing it.

"I saw Ryoma like that alive for the first time in a long time. I've been sinking since my father left, but now I'm regaining my old smile."

"That smile is made from within herself. It doesn't change without me."

"That's not the case. A woman comes alive if she can fall in love with a man."

"I will do my best not to disappoint."

When she answers safely, she gives instructions to Eve.

"Departure is tomorrow morning. Until then, let the mercenaries nourish you and allow up to three drinks."

Eve nods and calmly begins preparing for the campaign. When he reminds him that up to three cups are available, he drinks strong alcohol. Jeanne was praying to God in an improvised church he built in his room. When you reach the night before your departure in each way, our army will depart tomorrow morning.

The Bernese mercenaries who set out in the morning set up on the plains south of Bernese by noon.

Although a small march, the fort that was originally built by Revolutionary and Dagonian forces was just beyond your eyes and nose. Rather, it might have been luckier to be able to march without encountering this far.

We just start fighting with the Dagon troops who have left the fort.

The Dagon Army was supposed to be sweeping us away in the city, deploying a siege weapon in front.

Therefore, we, who were supposed to be in the field, could do better.

Siege weapons that were destroyed one after another, and enemy technicians who were trying to use them, also fell, but only until the beginning of the war.

Soon the elite Dagon comes from behind. The unit consisted mainly of pirates, mercenaries, fishmen, sea slimes, and giant seabirds. They are valiant and morale. This mercenary unit is pushed. Toshizo, who commanded the right wing, complains.

"Darn, Bernese mercenaries and guards are all too weak. I want to make Ashtaroto's guys drink their nails."

"Yes! If they are my subordinates, these guys can easily get off!"

The saint of the left wing also responds. I lick them.

"Don't think that you can fight with your ideal men each time. You're a great commander if you follow your difficult men and bring victory."

"Unfortunately, we are not great generals, not husbands."

"Yes. Devil is too cheatful to keep winning with a messy hero like Hijikata."

"That's right. I'm not confident of leading a bad samurai like me and continuing to win."

Toshizo adjusts to Jeanne's joke.

No, not a joke, are you aware? Jeanne seems to consider himself a troublesome hero.

"The Demon King is winning while following us, which is one of the best heroes. If so, show miracles as usual again!"

The point is that you can make a strategy so that even weak soldiers can win. Of course, I'm telling it because I'm working.

"The enemy army is mostly marines. Marines are lightly armored. The heavy infantry in the mercenary are brought to the front and the stalemate is cut off."

"How do you rip?"

I show a sample to Jeanne asking.

When he receives a long sword from Eve, he cuts the Dagon army while jumping into the enemy line.

The first pierces his thighs before swinging his sword, and the second pierces his whole body, taking the momentum back. The third person simply bows his head. Cut the belly of the first person who stood up with the returning sword. Show a barrage as if dancing a dance.

"The Demon King has a great sword!"

"Oh, cheats. Not only magic, but sword skills are top notch."

"I might be the best, but you're the best. Go ahead and save the weak."

When Jeanne and Toshizo hear the words, they go to the front.

Jeanne changes the war with a sacred sword, and Toshizo inspires allies with the sharpness of Mamoru Izumi Kanesada.

The two heroes take the war situation into five minutes with the help of a lion.

In this way, I brought the war situation up to fifty-fifty, but that was all I could do.

The war will eventually stagnate, and the large number of Dagons will take advantage. The Dagon ambush began to land one after another from the sea.
