Reincarnated as an Aristocrat with an Appraisal Skill

Defense Corps led by Leeds.

Now it was not moving from around the village of Lamberg in its initial position, sending out reconnaissance soldiers to hear the enemy's movements.

Interactions with scouts are performed using sound magic transmits.

After using magic, the transmitter can be delivered to a specified catalyst by tapping lightly on the catalyst. Although it is not possible to convey people's words, it was possible to have a simple conversation by combining the sounds of Con.

Reetz had sent out one infantry and one magic soldier for reconnaissance and had received the report.

"Looks like we finally made a move"

It was a report that an invading squad led by Ars had made a move.

The order to monitor the movement when it was moved did not respond because it had been done in advance. The transmitter can receive sound, but the reply cannot be done unless the transmitter is used from the reply side. It consumes magic water, so we have to save it.

"How did it work?

Roselle asked the question.

"Looks like you split up on the second hand. Looks like we split between the woods and the roadside. Master Ars seems to be on the side of the road, so he's going to do a reconnaissance."

There can basically only be one scout out there. Because even the two of us, given the amount of magic water, will not be able to convey the information.

So the choice of splitting into two hands is not a strange way because it would be a dispersion of power, but it would allow enemies to not know where one squad is.

The terrain, by the way, but the road where the Reeds are now is on the south side of Lamberg.

This road leads south, and beyond it we reach where the Ars were until earlier.

On the east and west side of the road are woods, respectively.

The West Forest is dangerous, so it is forbidden to break in with training, but the East Forest has a safe route, so you can go there. Only that route can be used because you get lost when you just walk so fucked up.

The forest side that Leeds said is to march through the east forest, and the road side is to march down the road.

"Well, how do we deal with this one"

There are multiple ways to deal with enemy movements.

Simply divided into two parts, destroy each one, or this one separates the soldiers and responds to both?

When Leeds and Roselle are discussing

"Excuse me!! Mr. Leeds!! This is Shamar from the invasion squad!! Will you let me talk!!

And the shouts came out.

It is the voice of one of the magicians, Shamar, who raised his voice with hypervoice.

"What is it?

"I think we should ignore it."

Roselle insisted on ignoring it.

"I have decided to betray Master Ars, even for Master Ars!!

Shamar's voice sounds again.

"Betray... you give me information?

"Trap, I don't care what you think"

"Hmmm... but situationally..."

Reetz instantly understood the meaning of the word betray Master Ars, even for Master Ars.

If Mireille can't lead Ars to victory here, it's not surprising that he's seen as inactive.

Then Mireille is banished. Given the poor reputation of the ministers, it was not unlikely that there would be a traitor.

"I think you should listen to me for a moment or so"

Having thought of it that way, Leeds decided to listen and let him run his men under Shamar and bring them in.

Shamar described Mireille's operation.

According to that, Mireille is first trying to make the soldiers who went to the woods to scream that there was a real enemy attack, not training, to lure the Reeds and carry out the operation of ambushing them with the soldiers on the other side of the road.

"The operation... isn't it against the rules what it is?

"... well, but it doesn't seem like there are clear rules like that"

"Because you don't normally do that. It's not training."

If they say there was an enemy attack, whether it was a possible trap or not, I have to go. With that operation, it won't be training. I haven't been banned because I haven't had anything to do with it before.

"She doesn't even know that she has an idea out of common sense."

"But you're only the leader there, Ars. You have to stop it."

"Master Ars was deceived by his verbal skill... and eventually decided to do the maneuver..."

Reetz felt uncomfortable. Mireille's talking skills are certainly higher than normal, but Ars is not stupid either. I don't think I would accept such an operation.

"I knew that was a lie. I know I'm gonna let you direct me with your story, but it's not sweet enough to get caught in those hands."

"... yes. This story is a lie."

"Huh?"

Shamar uttered unexpected words.

"Mr. Leeds was right, and Mireille told me to pretend to betray you and direct you. But I really hate Mireille..."

From there, Shamar began to talk about how he hated Mireille.

After a while of talking,

"I hate Mireille so much, I'm really going to betray her. I'm going to teach you a true Mireille operation, not an earlier lie operation."

The second time Shamar talked about Mireille's operation, he tricked the Reeds into guiding them with false information. And let them take the back of the Ars once. Shamar uses the Sound Magic Rumble immediately after the attack. Rumble is a disturbing sound, and if it rings from within his own army, the considerably more upset. Signalling that it rang, the invasion team changed direction at once, wanting an upset defense force.

"Mr. Leeds pretend to be on this operation. At the end of the day, if I don't use Rumble, I'm going to have a complete surprise attack. Mireille will not be able to succeed in the operation and will be banished as unusable. Please make a wise decision."

……

Leeds gets confused about deciding if he should believe it.

Naturally it is possible that this is also a Shamar lie. But it's also true that it could be true. At least it didn't look like Leeds was lying to me.

It's just possible that Shamar is good at lying. Leeds is not stupid enough to trust him with ambiguous subjectivity.

"Okay, I'll believe you."

I decided to pretend I totally believed this place once.

When Shamar runs out, he confirms that what Shamar is saying is a lie, so that he can read his opponent's movements. If it is true, move as Shamar says, and you can succeed and win an ambush.

Leeds didn't suspect this was the best, but he didn't realize at this point that the choice was a mistake.
