Santairiku Eiyuuki

In accordance with the decision taken at the military conference, the Kingdom of Cerda began preparations for the Lemurian Imperial Army interception.

Early horses run all over the country, and military nobles everywhere begin to lead soldiers and assemble.

First and foremost, the army was assembled in Azdavia, which is at the forefront.

Around 5000 soldiers were gathered here, made up of the Beasts (Warbeasts).

While this 5000 has stopped the invasion of the Lemurian Imperial Army, the Cerda Defense Forces in the capital, the Teriportanian Defense Forces guarding the ports of Teriportania, and the Teriportan Defense Forces guarding the city of Teriport are being organized as carriers.

"... but at the same time we can't muster soldiers"

Hilderick II muttered in a small voice.

Then grab the meat with your hands and carry it to your mouth.

The Kingdom of Cerda has no culture of using forks and knives, and meals are basic to hand grasping.

"You won't have a choice. Mobilisation of the army takes time. Low priority is really behind you."

It was Sonia who answered that while carrying the vegetables into her mouth.

As king and his fiancée, Carmine set up a dinner party to get to know each other well and interact with each other.

Most of all... I don't see much of that effect.

"... what are you grumpy about? I can't be that angry. Your father and I stopped worrying about you, didn't we?

Hilderick II still asks the grumpy Sonia as well.

In fact, Sonia belonged to the Azdavian Defense Forces, the front line to fight the Lemurian Imperial Army, and tried to fight it... it was stopped by Hilderick II and Carmine.

Hilderick II stopped this out of pure concern, as he put it.

Sometimes Carmine stopped it because he was still worried... but most of all because the Azdavian defense forces were mainly formed by the Joamel faction.

"I'm not in the mood. I told you the truth."

Sonia still replied in a grumpy manner.

Nevertheless, the tone is the grumpy one… Sonia is right about what she is saying, 'the fact'.

Given Iason's manoeuvre not to trump and protect Teriportania…, the first priority should be to defend Azdavia.

If we defend Azdavia first, the invasion from the land side will be stopped.

The next thing to be vigilant is the invasion from the sea… that is, the Cerda defense forces to avoid being ambushed on the capital and the Teriportanian defense forces to be deployed to defend each port in the Teriportanian region, as well as the Teriportan defense forces to defend the city of Teriport.

By the way, each of the planned troops and the general who commands them...

Firstly, Azdavian Defense Forces 5000, commander Iason.

Teriportanian Defense Forces 7000, commander is a subordinate of Iason.

Chelda Defense Forces 6000, the commander is Carmine's men

Terripol Defense Forces 7000, Commander is Carmine.

A total of 250000, the Commander-in-Chief is Carmine.

It is.

For once, it is nominally assumed that Carmine is the commander-in-chief, but Iason is a man of the Joamel faction… essentially in the form of having two commander-in-chief, Carmine and Iason.

"Mmmm... right, sorry"

"No...... I overstated it too strongly, sorry"

Sonia bowed her head to Hilderick II.

That's right, Sonia also has a degree of distinction that doesn't directly curse the king.

Hilderick II saw Sonia like that with an indescribable look.

Hilderick II's impression of Sonia has changed dramatically over the last decade.

About ten years ago I had the impression that she was just a loud little girl... but a little but distraught by Sonia, who grew up beautifully.

This is one of the factors Cassandra has been decaying due to her age, the pet princess of Hilderick II.

The Werewolves, a high-ranking species of the Beast (Warbeast), have a long life span - about 150 years - even if they are not as long as the Long Ear (Elves).

Hilderick II himself remained young, but Cassandra, a human race (human), aged.

While Hilderick II ceased to be as attracted to Cassandra as he used to be, his lifelong companion still began to rethink that werewolves with the same lifespan were good.

Nevertheless, Sonia's intensity itself has not changed for ten years… on the contrary, it has grown and grown stronger before, and even stronger evil feelings for Hilderick II.

Bad consciousness remains the same...... Hilderick II had very complicated thoughts.

"But... is it good to disperse soldiers like this? Perhaps General Carmine's operation would have been better."

Hilderick II spoke half of his mood for Sonia and half of his true meaning.

And ask about Sonia's complexion.

Sonia only made her frown jump for a moment... but answered with a calm voice.

"... given the protection of Teriportania, there will be no way to do this. Because enemies can land from anywhere. This one has to go around back than they're taking control of the sea. Surely such a dispersion of power would be foolish, but if the choice of abandoning an innocent people were a good idea, then that would not happen."

Sonia's reaction was unexpected from Hilderick II.

Taking into account that Sonia is Carmine's daughter, that Teriportania is the basis for Joamel's support and that there are a large number of people (human beings), Hilderick II must have condemned Iason's operation and said that Carmine's operation was better...... and expected.

"… the thought that we cannot abandon His Majesty's innocent people is very splendid as a ruler"

"Oh well."

To an unexpected compliment, Hilderick II was in a slightly better mood.

But that wasn't the end of Sonia's words.

"Therefore, Your Majesty should have confidence in your thoughts. The ministers are anxious when they seem to safely say a decision they have taken once, a statement that would lead them astray from that decision. I know it's in your heart, but it should stay in your chest."

Preached by a girl younger than herself, Hilderick II was in a bad mood again.

If this were Cassandra, you'd be comforted...

and Hilderick II sighs inside.

(… to the extent that you say something a little silly, isn't it good? You're my fiancée.)

I didn't say anything to the minister that I was lost in the judgment I made.

He spilled his stupidity on Sonia, his fiancé.

To that extent, Hilderick II's idea that it's okay for you to tolerate... is never a mistake.

Sometimes the mouth will be slightly lighter in front of that brutal Lemurian emperor, the outrageous King Farth, and his boob wife.

(... Cassandra is bigger)

Hilderick II looked at Sonia's breasts and thought, "Oh, my God.

Sonia is somewhat better, considering her aging... but her breasts are still bigger than her mistress's.

Sonia and Cassandra, Hilderick II's heart was shaking in front of the two women.

"... something?

"Yes, no... I'm sorry. The rest of the thought was sweet. Apologize... and don't get mad at me again"

"... No, I'm sorry. Words have passed. Forgive my disrespect."

Sonia bowed her head again.

And then the two continue to eat silently.

Silence is dominated by the spot.

Couldn't stand the silence, Hilderick II offers the topic again.

"Is Emperor Lemuria seriously trying to invade our country, thinking? There are two hundred and fifty thousand troops here. If we want to mobilize more, we can also muster more than 300,000 troops. I did hear that the Lemurian Empire would exceed 700,000 if it had total force alone... but it would be about 100,000 with expedition capability, wouldn't it? Our soldiers are not weak enough to win by more than double the strength difference..."

The kingdom of Cerda is dominated by the Beasts (Warbeasts).

The Beasts (Warbeasts) are not necessarily superior to the humans (humans) in their physical abilities…

Excellent physical abilities and long-lived Beasts (Warbeasts) are limited to high-ranking species.

The physical ability of a human race (human) can also be adequately accommodated if the median species is about, and is slightly superior to that of a human race (human) if it is a lower species.

Regardless of whether it is a one-on-one battle, it is more collaborative than physical ability that holds the key when it comes to a collective battle.

In other words, the battle on land does not differ greatly between the Lemurian Empire, which is dominated by the human race (Humans), and the kingdom of Cerda, which is dominated by the Beast (Warbeast).

There is no significant difference, which means that it is the number that counts.

And in numbers… the Kingdom of Cerda, the defensive side, can gather more.

"He must be serious, because he's really moving the Expeditionary Force, not a skirmish. Emperor Lemuria is famous as a famous general...... it would be reasonable to assume that he moved the army because he has an arithmetic to win. I can't even imagine how you're going to win."

"Hmm. Well... but our country's proud general, Iason and Carmine, are taking all possibilities into account and responding. The prospect of that man will crumble."

Yeah, yeah, and nodding Hilderick II.

But to Sonia, something was caught in the back of her brain.

(All possibilities taken into account?

It did take into account all possible possibilities and prepared its countermeasures.

At least there shouldn't be any loopholes...

(Are you sure you're handling this?

Isn't something fundamentally missing?

Sonia conceived.

"Sonia? Are you okay?

……

Sonia dives deeper into the sea of deep thought than Hilderick II's words can reach.

And about twenty minutes went by, and it was then that Hilderick II tried to call a doctor.

"Awwwww!!!!

Sonia screamed and stood up.

My eyes, which are usually full of confidence and reside in a strong will, are wide open.

My face was stained bright blue.

"No way, no way!!! Oh, do that...... no, you can't do that! Normally I wouldn't do such a ridiculous thing if I could think of one! If I did I would be a real idiot!! But that's why nothing has ever tried to do that...... NONE!! If, if, if that is possible…"

Sonia either fell out of too much shock or collapsed.

"So, are you okay? Sonia."

Hilderick II speaks to Sonia worryingly.

Sonia grabbed Hilderick II's shoulder like that.

"Your Majesty! Chi, to your father... summon General Carmine to the royal palace as soon as possible! I don't know, I don't think so... No, I don't think it's possible, but billions are the one possibility! The main force of the Lemurian army is that fate is not by sea!! The sea, the land, is positive! Maybe its destiny..."

Than Sonia says......

It was faster for one conductor to jump in.

"Your Majesty! Sorry during your meal!! And as soon as I can, what I have to tell you…"

The conductor kneels with a bright blue face, and speaks the news.

"Lemurian Imperial Army, about 30,000, has suddenly emerged south of the city of Teripol!
