Ryusousha ha Shizukani Kurashitai

As soon as I heard Sir Lithwarn's words, I understood.

"Because you don't trust my words... or maybe they're not accurate?

I can think of many reasons why Sir Lithwarn doesn't send out soldiers.

It's not like I thought I was lying, but they grabbed false information, or this town was being watched by the enemy, information that I deliberately spilled to use.

"Of course there's a reason for that. But there's another reason."

"Is that another reason?

"The Moon Warcraft is drastically reducing the defensive power of the town. That's why we have to be cautious."

The towns of Urs, when combined with satellite cities and nearby villages, become quite numerous.

The massive descent of the Moon Warcraft has scattered its power into towns and villages.

"Still, if the demon kingdom attacked, we'd head to town defense, wouldn't we?"

"Absolutely. We're going to send out a reconnaissance by the dragon before then."

Near the border between Dragon Country and Devil Country, there are many forests.

People use the streets when they come and go. Therefore, it wasn't enough that we were just monitoring it.

"I was based in a basin forest. The march could come through the woods too."

The town of Sourel is also surrounded by woods.

They deliberately leave nature behind so that the Moon Warcraft doesn't come easily.

"Is it General Ellen Heydon who commands the army? He's a top-notch commander, and he's not a wingman."

Sir Lithwarn laughed at Nihil.

They are good enemies who have exchanged spears more than once.

I don't know, maybe I've already started reading the plan.

"That's all I can tell you. I have to go back to King's Landing after this."

I said what I had to say. All we have to do is go home.

"Thanks for the tip."

Sir Lithwarn has stood up and asked for a handshake.

"... Speaking of which, you're a dragon rider."

and Sir Lithwarn, as he remembered something.

"My men report that you have suffered a terrible injury, but are you okay with the flight?

"I'm flying home slowly"

"Well... by the way, where did you get that kind of injury? If there's a threat near this town, we have to deal with it."

"Shalazad was injured in the capital... of the Devil Nation"

When I told him so, Sir Lithwarn's brow moved pickly.

Most of all, in the battle where Sharazard was injured, I wasn't aboard, but I wasn't talking about it.

Thus I left the city of Urs for the king's capital.

After Leon left, Lithwarn stared at the map he had spread out on his desk for a while.

"... don't you see"

I don't even realize the deputy came into the room with tea, and I'm keeping an eye on him.

"What's going on?

It's just weird to concentrate so far. When the deputy who thought so spoke to Nanny, Lithwarn finally looked up.

"... just think about it"

Look at the small piece of stone placed on the map and the deputy tilts his neck.

"Is it war?

White and black stones are placed, but usually these stand out to their own and enemy forces.

Having it on the map means that there is or is going to be a war.

"War...... I guess. The young man just brought the story."

"Heroes of the Redemption... right"

"Right. He says General Heydon will attack the town of Sourel."

"!? Then you have to check your protective posture immediately"

"Yeah. But it's about the old general. That could be the bluff, and even if it's true to attack, it could be in a different place. Even in the first place, it's hard to take down a fortified city."

"Right. How is that possible at a time like this..."

A major metastasis has begun and the defense of the town of Urs is declining. There are simply no soldiers to turn to war.

But the demon kingdom is the same, and we can't afford to attack another country.

"And the composition of the soldiers is strange. It's weird that the formation doesn't have a wizard, or it's carrying civilians in it. And it's the town of Sourel that attacks... you don't know what the general's thinking."

"I abandoned myself or something..."

I don't think so.

"Well, I think you've decided there's a chance somewhere or something."

"Yes. I just have to judge that, but this would not be the same as suicide for me. I mean, it's an operation we don't execute."

The enemy will march through the woods and march without finding them.

At the moment, however, we cannot afford to guard the border lines, and if we restrict the journey to the night only, we can proceed without finding it quite close.

But that can't be the only way the town will fall. And Lithwarn thinks he's not a general who doesn't know that.

It is because of that much judgment that I can say that I listened to Leon and couldn't wipe the discomfort.

"So, here's another thing that bothers me."

"What is it?

"I wonder who signed this operation."

"... ah"

That's what Lithwarn cares about.

If this is General Heydon's discretion, there is a slight possibility that he has "lost his blood".

But what if this is the instructions of the Demon King?

"The general is a loyal aspiration. I'm not the kind of person to arbitrarily devote myself to, and I'm not as thoughtless as playing a battle without a chance. I think if the general had moved, there would have been an order from the Demon King. So, what's the directive?

It was there that Lithwarn had in mind, and because there was no answer to that, he had been staring at the map since earlier.

"What is the Devil King after?

"Yes, maybe this is a scene in a bigger stream, not around this town."

What makes Lithwarn unable to come up with an answer is a bigger horizon. I decided that it was because I hadn't put my thoughts around national thoughts.

"So what will the defense do?

"I'm going down in battle, but I'm going to use the formation of the Feilongs to discover just the enemy shadows. From there on... it's spotty, but I guess I'll see how the enemy moves before I think about it. Have you been setting up a total battle, seeing how things are going, crushing balls... or"

Lithwarn turned his head so that he could increase the width he could cope with against the demonic armies that waged a battle without merit.
