Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

"What... annihilation?"

Unbelievable, the Elsmo Empire Emperor, Elsmo Kazai Khaki. His thick eyebrows were in Hanoi, his mouth was wide open, and he was dazed.

In front of him was Prime Minister Okuma. She keeps her head drooping with an indescribable expression.

"And... twenty thousand of my troops have been wiped out...?"

The emperor opened his mouth as if to squeeze his voice. For him, it was a report that could be described as a report of Azure Sky. Looking at him like that, Prime Minister Okuma replies with apologies.

"Yes, yes..." According to the ambassador from Noono earlier, 25,000 soldiers of both armies of Elsmo Noono have been wiped out.

"... I can't believe it. It's 25,000?" What happened when 25,000 soldiers were wiped out? "

"Hah, that's what happened to Gray Sahara and got caught up in it."

"Gray Sahara!?"

No wonder the Emperor was surprised. It was a catastrophe that allegedly occurred in ancient times, and it was now a phenomenon that has become a legend. At first he did not believe the story, but as he received reports that many dragons were filling the sky, the expression darkened his discouragement even further.

What despaired the emperor was, above all, that his only son, Nomasa, had no chance of survival.

Nomasa, my son, was brilliant from an early age. Emperor Khaki had great expectations of his son's growth. The son is dead. It cast a dark shadow over the future Eslumo Empire.

The Elsmo Empire, with its vast territory, was one of the most powerful countries in the world, but it was always involved in territorial disputes from its neighbors. Emperor Khaki could not further develop the country simply by maintaining the drawings spread by his father, the previous emperor. Therefore, although his servant had a low reputation and he would not be turned away, he was said to be overwhelmingly less capable than his father, who demonstrated his military and diplomatic skills and expanded the schematics of the Eslmo Empire.

However, Khaki had the goodness of a product and the size of a measure that people often listen to. Since there was no expression of anger in front of the servants, and since he was a well-prepared and affectionate person, there were few people who appreciated him, and at the same time, there were few things that turned against the enemy, which could be said to support his reign.

Meanwhile, Nomasa, his son, had shown wisdom from an early age, and his servants had come to expect this son as a return of the late Emperor. I'm sure Lord Nomasa will be the master of Elsmo's prosperity... that was the unanimous thought of his servants.

This situation, in which Nomasa's chances of survival were extremely thin, caused little upset among the servants. Emperor Khaki had no other male successor besides Nomasa. The three daughters and the two younger brothers of the emperor remained, but in any case they had no ability comparable to Nomasa. Therefore, it was easy to imagine that the only option would be to take the son-in-law of the emperor's daughter and let him inherit the trail, but that would lead to rebellion from many servants.

First of all, let's gather the information.

The emperor was full of orders to do so. He didn't have the ability to decide on Nomasa's death here and now, so he couldn't help but put the status quo ahead of him.

A week later, however, the situation changed. Nomasa's survival has been reported. Below the Emperor who had given up, the people of the Elsmo Empire were ecstatic about the report.

A week later, Nomasa was finally on his way home, protected by his soldiers. But Nomasa, who had returned, was not the same as him.

Previously, he was a man of elegance and intelligence, always creating an atmosphere of confidence. It was changing. His eyes sharpened and he returned as a tough young man. It was clear to everyone that this would have been a passing through the unimaginable Shura.

His return, of course, was a miraculous coincidence, and not without sacrificing the lives of many soldiers. Nomasa hates to see her soldiers throw their lives away to protect her.

There were many who had served him for a long time. He didn't have enough ruthlessness to say that it was merely the duty of his servants to cut off the loss of their lives.

The water that came from the collapsed wall pushed his body away with great ease and robbed him of his consciousness. The next thing he regained consciousness was on the soldiers' bodies. Somehow, the bodies of the drowned soldiers were folded up, and Nomasa was stumbling over them in the form of being thrown out.

The river was at the bottom of a cliff, and the surviving soldiers had to climb the cliff. A mildly ill and physically capable person climbs the barrier first, then drops the rope and pulls the soldier up. Nomasa was fortunate enough to have her body lifted by the presence of soldiers who noticed her.

He worked hard to pull the remaining soldiers out of the river. However, the efforts were futile, and the soldiers who saved them sank into the river one after another from those who were out of strength.

In the end, it was nearly five hundred men who were saved. And Nomasa turned back his way, that he might bring them forth with him unto his homeland.

But their misery continued even further. The monsters attacked, and their retreat did not slow down. The battle with the monsters that were about to come, almost at rest, exhausted them, and the battle against hunger drained them of their health.

Among them, the soldiers made it a priority to protect Nomasa's life. Some stormed the monsters and scattered their lives, and some pushed their bodies with their swords and shed blood, and tried to destroy the assault by running away in an unknown direction. And many of them were the preachers of Nomasa. And he watched in silence the one man that had been by his side from a young age, and the one man that had vanished.

As a result, fewer than half reached the Kingdom of Noono.

The kingdom of Nono, which welcomed them, was very upset and confused when it was heard that Grey Sahara had taken place, despite the generosity with which it protected them. Nomasa insisted that he should strike back as soon as possible, but the words were not accepted. They were sent from the Kingdom of Noono to the Empire of Eslumo as if they were a nuisance.

Nomasa had been thinking along the way. By returning home like this, you will surely suffer a great defeat and be surrounded by an incompetent commander who has lost many of his soldiers. Perhaps the Father or the minister could be tempted not to reveal such appraisals, but Nomasa could not forgive herself. We must put an end to this stigma. And I'm sorry for those who died for me. I want to take out their enemies by any means necessary. He kept thinking about how he could do it.

At that time, I learned from those who came forward that those sent from Agarta were involved in that battle. Nomasa commanded his men to look into the matter further.

It didn't settle down like this. I want to destroy the Seafund, but also the Nornos who did nothing in that battle. And if Agarta is involved in that battle, I'll have to impose some sort of sanction on Agarta and I won't be relieved...

In Nomasa's heart, he was continually dominated by such emotions...
