Hakai no Miko

As soon as the pale horse decided to deal with it, the El Door kingdom began to move.

It not only regrouped its troops to march to various places, but also sent letters to the Romanian nation and Alexius' faction in accordance with the plan of the Pale Horse.

Construction of evacuation villages and securing human and material resources and food for refugees leaving the raided reclaimed villages.In addition, it arranges its transportation and stockpiling.To quell the agitated country, and to take advantage of this chaos, the bandits and wildlife bandits will increase their patrols around the country so as not to jump on the beams.In order to prevent the confusion of the people caused by gossiping, there is a wide variety of things, such as the construction of a system that uses newspapers and bulletin boards that have finally begun to settle with the rise in the literacy rate to convey more accurate information and to monitor the situation of the people.

It is not difficult to imagine that it would have been easy to look at either of them.

Among these challenges, it was the reorganization of Zoan's warriors that made it particularly difficult to navigate.

At the same time as the declaration, Chief Balalak, who had announced his departure from Erdoğan, had ordered his fighters to return to the plains.

It was only natural that the warriors of the [Eagle Clan] were greatly perplexed by this sudden return order.Until yesterday, some people were angry that they could not just return to the plains by putting their shoulders side by side and passing through the deadline, while others felt a sense of belonging to the country of El Door by deepening their friendship with other races, and they felt reluctant to leave the country itself.

However, it is a time when there is a stronger sense of belonging to one's own race and tribe than to the country.The announcement that Aohora would tolerate return was also a boost, and the < Clan of Eagles > fighters had to leave the El Door National Army.

Still, there were a few fighters who wanted to remain strong.

However, if you disobey the will of the clan leader, it is a rebellious act that you must leave the clan.And even though it was against the chief, it was Zoan's custom to ask the chief by courtesy to leave the clan.If you fail to do so and leave the clan on your own, you will be clawed by any clan as an outlaw who can't be polite.

Therefore, those who wanted to remain had to return to the plains to obtain the forgiveness of Bararak, and in the end, all of the [Clan of the Eagle] warriors from the Erdoğan Army were left behind.

The impact this had on the Erdoğan Army was enormous.

Even the Eagle Clan has the largest population of Zoans living in the Sorbian Plains.Of course, the number of warriors belonging to the Erdoğan Army was higher.That's all, the open hole in the El Door National Army was huge.

But the Zoans were strong in the unity of their families.Since the operation of troops in the Erdoğan National Army was also organized on the basis of the family, it was thought that the reorganization of the army after the "family of the eagle" was not very problematic.

However, unexpected problems are discovered here.

It was the presence of Zoanese warriors who were dispatched to the ranks of other races.

Zoan's drums are now the mainstay of the command of the Erdoğan Army.

I had already listened to the drum beats from other races besides Zoan and started training them to beat again.However, it is difficult to master the beat of the drum for those who are not Zoan who have become accustomed to the beat of the drum since they were young, and are still in the middle of the road.Even now, Zoan was indispensable for the transmission of commands by the beat of the drum.

Therefore, one Zoanese warrior was always assigned to any unit of the Erdoğan National Army, but of course, many of them were also from the < Eagle Clan > who announced their departure this time.

Initially, it was thought that other clan fighters would only fill the hole, but this was more difficult than expected.

First of all, Zoan doesn't have to be anybody.

In order to communicate with other races, it is necessary to be able to learn the language only through the minimum common western language.In addition, it is indispensable to be sociable enough to communicate with other races.

This alone will limit the number of people who fall into this category.

In addition, even if someone has such abilities, Zoan, who is originally a hunting race, has many temperament that honors his own martial arts and battle skills.And the more capable they were, the more they wanted to fight on the front lines, and they didn't want to play a good role in just transmitting the beat of the drum.

Especially in the [Claw Clan], which is known to be militant, and the [Clan of Fangs], which attaches great importance to the pride of the warrior, this tendency is remarkable, and Zug also vastly blurred that "when I come with my clan, I will be troubled by the bloodthirsty bastards".

Shortly after that, Garam insisted that he was "probably using the chief as a model", and it was Zug who had a sinister face.

Anyway, it took more time than expected to select such drum transmitters and delayed their dispatch to the plains.

In the meantime, however, good news was brought to the Azure Horse.

In the Battle of Holmea, Mitus, who first showed his obedience to the pale horse and was still entrusted with the city of Ruoma, declared the following to Alexius.

"A person who has abandoned the duty of royalty and escaped, is ashamed as a person who pressures his subordinates to fulfill their duty."

First of all, after criticizing Alexius so bitterly, he continued.

"The transfer of royal powers between His Majesty Soma and Princess Warina is a fair and just fact recognized by many subordinate citizens of Holmea, and there are no flaws in it.And the land is the land of El-do; and I am the people of El-do.Where is the righteousness and the truth of obedience to the Lord Alexius? "

As expected, he is the ruler of Luoma, the largest city in the western part of the Eldoret country, and he has strong faith in Mitus from the western lords.The influence of this statement was great.In the form of following Mitus, the lords and deputies of the west showed their obedience to the pale horses one after another.

Also, around this time, the deputy who had entrusted the city of Gatsen spoke up as follows.

"We are the people of Erdoğan, and there is no king but Lord Soma."

In addition, the will to obey Ayuma was shown successively from the eastern region.

In addition, news of the rebellion finally began to be transmitted, and although the upheaval was spreading in the southern region, it disappeared like a fire hung from the water due to the obedience shown to the blue horses from the west to the east.

In response to this situation, even in the northern part of the city close to the west and the east, the forces of Alexius were close, and envoys and letters to the effect that they obeyed the pale horses that the Lord (Okira) could not.

At one point, it was Alexis' revolt that threatened to shake the foundations of the country, but when the lid was opened, the impact was only on the extremely limited areas in the north.

It was none other than that the people of the land of El Dor accepted the rule of the pale horses, and the pale horses stroked their chest that their method of governance was not wrong.

It was only natural that the lord of Luoma city, Mitus, and the deputy officer of Gatsen city, who triggered this kind of chaos and calm in Japan, were deeply grateful.Azure horses had already sent a letter of thanks to both of them.

In response, Mitus replied casually, "Until I said what I took for granted," and Gatsen's city deputy replied with a joke, "If you say you will meet Alexius, I will be beaten to death by the people."Azure horses also laughed bitterly at this.

But these weren't the only good news Zoan got while he was struggling to get out.

And the bad news came.

It was a report of Chief Bararak's persuasion failure by Banuka.

◆◇◆◇◆

"Who are we?!"

In a settlement lined with countless tents, the chief, Balarak, raised his voice to the clansmen gathered.

And the people of the clan return to the concord.

”Zoan!!”

Yes! We are Zoan!

Balarak speaks to his family with his arms wide open.

"Zoan is the Champion of the Plains!"He is a proud hunter who runs through this vast land with four legs, chases the oxen, and takes it down with one sword! "

In response to Balarak's question, the clan members said, "Respond!”he said, his voice aligned.

In addition, Balalak raises his voice.

"As a proud Zoan, can we let the humans do whatever they want to this plain that our ancestors shed blood and risked their lives to protect?!"

To this the members of the clan said, "No!"and returns the rapprochement.

“Is there any value in the deaths of warriors whose hounds feed on humans and are driven to death in battles unrelated to Zoan?! Is there honor in their souls?!”

Again, the clan members said, "No!"and returns the rapprochement.

"Some of the youngsters are beginning to spread even the frail winds of digging back the soil better than hunting the cows!"Is there any pride in Zoan that such a locust does?! "

In addition to this, the clan members also said, "No!No! "

Balarak reacts with enthusiasm in his clan's response.

"We are the proud Zoans!"

I'm responding!

The people of the clan thrust their fists up.

"We are the proud Zoan!!"

Ooooooooooooooooooo!

The clansman raised their fists and their voices many times.

A warrior came to Balalak with a satisfied smile.Balalak, somehow heard by the warrior, looks slightly surprised.

"Huh. You're back already."

Balarak, who leaked a little, told his clansmen to disperse, and took the warrior to his tent.

Balalak leaves the fur laid at the entrance and enters the tent, breaking his face toward the young Zoan who was waiting inside.

"Good to have you back. My son Banuka."

"Father--no, Chief, it was a shame."

It was Banuka, who had returned to the plain one foot ahead of the Erdoğan army, who was struggling to regroup, who bowed his head deeply on the laying of both fists.

“Banuka, this is my tent.You don't have to say such a hard greeting. "

Banuka opens her mouth with a slight hesitation, welcoming herself back to Balalak with a smile on her face.

Chief, I'd like to ask you a question.

Balalak slightly wrinkled his nose at Banuka, who was merely trying to contact him as a patriarch and a member of his family, and then said, "What?” he asks.

“Why did the Patriarch announce his departure from El Door?”

In response to Banuka's question, Balalak frowned openly.

"It's only natural for Zoan."We are not human hounds!Whether you're a dustblower or a nematode!We are the champions of the proud plains! "

After being arrogant, Balalak continued to say with a bitter expression that seemed to leak out his tongue.

"In the first place, it was also frustrating to recognize the Somma humans as the king of the tribes.Why should we, the proud Zoans, call every man king of the tribe?It is to prevent the invasions of the humans who will be the Holmea kingdom.But now there is no Holmea country.And yet you still need to call humans tribal kings? "

Banuka tried to argue against this.However, Balalak raises his hand lightly to stop Vanuka, as if to dominate the plan.

"Of course, I acknowledge the merits of those who will be Thomas.But he brought the plains back on his own?No! No! Who put himself in front of the blade instead of someone who can't fight?! Who shed blood and won the victory?! We're the Zoans!

The land of Hormea was no longer ruined.So, why do we have to contend with the land of humans who have never heard of Romania?If you're going to do this, you're going to have to fight on your own!Why must we be involved! "

Balalak dares to take a moment to calm his excited mind before continuing his words.

"How many of my compatriots have lost their lives because they were involved in a human conflict?"How many of my soulmates who did not have to die were forced to return?Can't you hear me?The mourning of a child who lost his father!Can't you get it?The grief of my wife who lost a good man!Don't you see?The anguish of parents who have lost their children! "

Towards Banuka, who is overwhelmed by his words, Balalak tells him to look at the tatami mats.

"Alright! We [The Eagle Clan] will not help the humans anymore!"The same goes for the fangs and claws made of human hounds! "

But, but the chief--

Still trying to defend Banuka, Balalak let out an angry shout.

"Shut up, Banuka! Are you drunk in the Stone City too?!"

A stone city is a human city with stone walls.And these days among Zoan the young men that went into the city as soldiers of the kingdom of Eldo, and said, Get drunk in the city of stone, and be addicted to the goods, and the entertainment, and to the farming that is therein.

Even his son was drunk in the city of stones, and Balarak kicked.

"Banuka! You're on guard!" Let your drunken head cool down! "

Balalak turned his back to say that he had nothing more to say.Banuka shouted as she clung to his back.

"Chieftain! Tell me one thing!"Did someone inspire you to leave the Erdoğan country?! I don't know what he said.But he is the one who works to tear the country and us apart in bad faith!Please reconsider your departure this time! "

Balarak, who was about to leave the tent, turned his back on the word, and stopped. Then I looked back over my shoulder.

“I don't know what you're talking about.It's all I've decided. "

Leaving that aside, Balarak put the tent behind him.

Banuka was not allowed to pursue it, but only to drop it off.

Are you okay, Chieftain?

The warrior, who was the chief's valet, called out to Balalak, who walked roughly in his footsteps without trying to hide his grumpiness.

Balalak snorts small.

"If my son cools his head for a while, the stone city mood will be cured."

"No, it's not that..."

Balalak notices something in the face of a mouthed warrior.

Oh, you're worried that someone named Soma might be mad at us for leaving and leading our warriors.

Balalak snorted as small as a fool.

“We're just leaving.You know that, too.Add or subtract the sweetness of that man who becomes soma.If we don't point the blade at him, he won't point the blade at us. "

"No, that's not it..."

Balalak, who was very good at talking about climax, was discouraged by the water.It was a warrior who was stuck with words in a grumpy mood, but he opened his mouth to Bararaq.

"Your son has been confirmed."Whoever plots to tear our country apart-- "

So the warrior looks around and says.

"Isn't that the man you're talking about?"

The warrior refers to a man who had visited the family village many months ago and had somehow complained directly to Balarak.

Balalak opened his eyes as if he had just remembered, and then snorted like a fool.

"Ah. It's him..."

"That's right, Chief. What kind of hand did he use? Didn't he bring the [Tail Clan] back to the plains, who had so much refused our invitation?"

At the council of chiefs held after conquering the city of Bornis, Balarak, who was unhappy that he had to admit that he would be the king of the clan, secretly used his clan warriors to search for the unknown [tail clan].And because of that, he discovered the "family of tails" living in secret in the mountains that humans call the Donus Mountains.

Since then, Balalak had repeatedly urged the < Clan of Tails > to return to the plain.

But it is not out of pity or sympathy.

To harass the pale horse.

In the council of chiefs, Bararak recommended the land as a reclaimed land, which was the territory of the < tail clan >.When the [Clan of Tails] returned from the reclamation, there would be an adhesion.

It was a matter of intent.

However, knowing or not such a thought of Bararak, Anunta, the chief of the [tail clan], said, "It is the achievement of our brethren to reclaim the plains.Even though it be to keep the family alive, how shall our mouths be pinched when we abandon the land of our fathers? And they refused to return to the plains.

However, the man who heard it said, "I will persuade you to go to the [Tail Clan]." Soon, the [Tail Clan] had just returned to the plains or attacked both the fangs and the claws.

"I can't trust a man who is not such a warrior.He probably burned the < Clan of Tails > by some dirty means.If you want to get involved in such things, let's get involved in the tickets of our < Eagle Clan >! "

Balalak lowered his hand to hold on to the warrior who was shaking his face anxiously.

"It's none of our business."

But Balalak said lightly.

"Whatever he did, we don't know."I don't even want to know.If you don't know, it's none of our business. ”

In front of a dazzling warrior with his eyes wide open, Balalak proudly says.

"Sure, he doesn't know what grudges he has, but he wanted us to fight his nails and fangs anyway."But I'm not stupid either.I've seen that intent for a long time. "

Balalak leaks a giggle and a laugh.

“We can't do anything.Without doing anything, the fangs and claws lose their strength by losing important warriors because they stuck their necks in a foolish human struggle.Thanks to this, we will be the biggest force on this plain without any effort. ”

Balalak thought of the sight of it and laughed happily.

The confident figure of Balalak, the warrior stroked his chest, wondering if his worries were grief.

But immediately, the warrior bends his head and neck.

Even if I announced my departure, the Sweet Tribe King wouldn't point the blade at me if I didn't point the blade at him.Without a fight, the fangs and claws fall into battle with the king of the tribes.

Because I felt like I had heard something similar from someone other than Balalak before.

However, I quickly convinced myself that the warrior had the wrong memory.

The reason is that we could not dispel the imagination that we would have set foot in the bottomless swamp that we would never have been able to get out of.
