Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 408

Ranje could have sworn.

I've seen all kinds of crazy cases on the battlefield, but this is one of the more crazy cases..

Just by looking at it, I thought a javelin with extraordinary power had pierced my head, but my brain couldn't keep up with the fact that he was suddenly wearing a helmet, and that as soon as he reached the castle wall, he was running diagonally up the castle wall as if he were the only staircase, but the peak was later. was.

"Right, the spell interference on the right wall has been weakened.!"

"Break through!!"

My body moved before I heard the wizards' shouts and judged them. Ranje shouted with strong conviction..

"You poopy puppies!! It's time to get fucked.!!"

This can definitely be broken through. The intuition I had built up on the battlefield called out. When the battalion commander gave the order to go ahead, the battering ram soldiers, who, like the other soldiers, were dumbfounded because they could not believe what they were seeing, reflexively started running..

A bombardment rained down on one side of the castle wall, but no one assumed that Eldmia might have been caught in it and died. If something so unbelievable happens three times in a row, your brain will give up trying to keep up. Instead of thinking that it was a coincidence that the enemy's spell interference stopped as soon as Eldmia climbed the castle wall, they thought it was his plan, and they believed that the person who made the plan couldn't have been foolishly caught up and died..

And it was no different for Raynal, who had been beaten by Eldmia. When he saw that there was no check on the battering ram until the moment it was halfway across the battlefield, he mounted his horse without hesitation..

"This will definitely break through! 2nd regiment ready to attack! Ready to charge!!"

Although he didn't know Raynal's reaction, Lanje could tell that the battlefield was starting to shake even without looking back..

Regardless of the atmosphere or anything like that, it was impossible not to know because the ground was physically shaking. She glanced at the battering ram following closely behind her, then jumped up and climbed on top of it, using her massive mace as support..

"Shit!"

"It’s already heavy and difficult, but do you really have to do this?!?"

There was a groaning sound as the landing did not show the slightest consideration to the person running with it, but Ranje did not care at all. He rather found it embarrassing. He didn't just get into the mood and jump on a battering ram..

"Anyone who is dissatisfied, speak up! From now on, I accept it as a firm will to take on the position of a glorious vanguard that charges as soon as the battering ram explodes...."

"I feel stronger now that the battalion commander is on board.!"

"run fuck!"

Anyway, you fucking poop puppies..

Ranje shook his head and burst out laughing, looking at the castle gate that was getting closer and the side door that was still not opening, and laughed cheerfully..

"If you can't get to the second castle gate with one hit, do it yourself.!"

"Tell that to the magic tool on the battering ram.!"

Using that cry as a signal, the twenty knights simultaneously lifted the battering rams they were carrying on their shoulders. They moved so flawlessly that if Eldmia had seen them, they would have applauded, saying there was no special group dance. As soon as they finished measuring the distance, they swung the battering ram with all their might..

And the battering ram, which swung like a pendulum in a large semicircle, scratched the floor and hit the secondary wooden gate, scattering fragments. Soon, it was blocked by the iron gate, and the moment it felt a heavy recoil, it pushed against the battering ram with all its might and secured itself..

In order not to fly backwards without being able to withstand the explosion caused by the magic tool attached to the end of the battering ram..

-Kwaaaaang!

Amidst the roaring sound, flames, and flying fragments of the castle gate, Lanje, as soon as he saw that the iron gate was greatly distorted and broken, ran towards the end of the battering ram without any hesitation..

There was no time to pay attention to the thick smoke and intense heat rising from the battering ram. She again made a great leap from the edge of the battering ram, using her blunt force as support, and immediately knew who she was targeting. Any other time it would have taken her a while to figure out which one was the stronger one, but this time it wasn't that difficult..

The guy who was confronting Eldmia with a huge rock that looked like a fragment of the castle wall was clearly the strongest..

"Long live the dog-like silver eagle brigade!!"

Her blunt weapon swung at the head of the half-horned demon, who looked up with eyes full of astonishment and futility..

◈

Fuck my god. As expected, the surprise attack is fucking right..

As if a cannon had been fired, the battering ram exploded, the castle gate collapsed, and as soon as acrid smoke began to rise, Ranje suddenly jumped out and struck the top of Banbangi's head with the blunt weapon he was wielding..

The blunt weapon that the knight with high-level aura threw away all his skills and swung with all his might was so fast that it put to shame its enormous size. Even if you look at it from the side, it looks like this. Needless to say, the person involved is.

The half-body, whose head had been replaced by a result that made you frown, fell down in vain, and at the same time, fear and confusion spread among the demon lords. As the 20 knights who came over there on battering rams began to clear the area, some people began to run away in vain with just a few sword strikes..

"Check the enemies in the outer castle as base defense troops! Moderate risk! General infantry can be deployed!"

"General infantry can be deployed! I'll send you a signal!"

The knights who moved in perfect order were indeed veterans of the front lines. I don't know what kind of fight they were fighting, but their behavior seemed closer to modern-day special forces than soldiers..

"Do you classify risks??"

I asked Lanje, who was walking with great majesty, with the surroundings being cleared quickly and the enemies on the castle walls bursting into the background, and he calmly nodded and explained..

"The Demon King's army is thorough in that respect. Since the gap between the main attack force and the defense force is quite large, if you do not notify them in advance, your soldiers will be killed. Right now... Shit, I found a drake! Drake discovered! Red flag twenty! Take cover!"

Ranje, who was looking around indifferently but still alert, looked at the sky behind me and shouted. As I turned my head in admiration at the sight of them spreading out in an instant, some between buildings and others boldly lifting the corpses of dead enemies, I saw about twenty flying dragons flying from near the inner castle in the distance..

The guys who were flying a little high were gradually lowering their altitude, so it looked like they were planning to attack the main force, but then changed their plan and decided to target us..

"Lord Ega! We don't have the means to keep their drakes in check! First, step back and take cover...."

"Oh, it's okay. Because I have it. Once you get close enough, you can attack without difficulty.."

"yes?"

I don't know if they just use magic to keep it in check from afar, but other than that, a needle is enough to deal with it..

Paying attention to my eyes, I whistled and pulled out a bamboo needle, and Lanjie, who was watching from the side, asked without hiding his surprise..

"Holy crap. What is that... Is that why you were able to run up the castle wall earlier??"

"You're very perceptive.."

"No, I just said it. Is it true? I ran like that while stepping on that thin thing.?"

"Well, you can just combine the two and get the hang of it.."

I've felt it since yesterday, but in many ways, she was a woman who had built a wall around tension. She chattered like that for a moment and showed an absurd reaction, but contrary to my expectation that she would take cover like other knights, she looked straight at the flying dragon that attempted to dive towards us and grabbed her blunt weapon as if it was no big deal..

"It's not that I don't believe it, but you don't know.."

I looked at him blankly, and he just shrugged his shoulders with a sour expression on his face and added one more word. If the attack with the needle fails, are you going to break the dragon's head with that club? You have a different reliability from Catherine..

However, if my prediction is correct, there will be no deviation. In the first place, the first flying dragon that comes down will be caught with an axe, not a needle..

-Kieeeeek!

The flying dragon, which was falling headfirst while making a sound that cannot be called beautiful even in empty words, spreads its wings wide and raises its head high. With that alone, the risk of the drake and the demons riding it has decreased significantly..

The reason why the Drake Knight is scary is not because the dragon attacks. It is a threat because the flying dragon knight utilizes its mobility, pours in magic, and physically penetrates the resulting gap. On the contrary, if the flying dragon changes direction like that and attacks with its claws first, the area hit becomes wider and it is likely to end up in the nether..

I felt it last time, but their drakes were less trained than Ethisel's. I smiled with satisfaction and presented the ax to the dragon..

-Key... ugh?!

Even if they were demons, there was no way they could avoid a two-handed ax thrown by a mere flying dragon with all its might..

As the ax blade flew under the raised jaw and split the skull, the flying dragon's head fell back and fell. As the flying dragon's belly started to fall straight into the sky, the demon riding on its back was embarrassed. I screamed in fear, but I didn't care about the guy who was going to get crushed anyway, so I jumped up and stepped on the falling dragon..

And in the basement of the academy, I attempted to run using the sense of running on the back of the great devil who had transformed into a salt dragon..

"what?!"

My original target was a latecomer who would attempt a jet stream attack from behind the just-dead drake..

I threw a needle at the panicked demon on top of the flying dragon, which was falling from its head as it had not yet raised its claws. As soon as I saw that it died without being able to resist, I stabbed the flying dragon in the face with a bamboo stick..

Let’s take this opportunity to see how much you have to pay to listen to me..

This is the last registered session.

When I am asked what makes me consider myself better than others or say I am as good as others in this world, excluding my innate magical power and the body I have trained through it, there are only two things I can confidently answer..

Swordsmanship and jumping off a flying dragon. His swordsmanship is quite top-notch, and his ability to jump from a flying dragon is clearly unrivaled even across the entire continent..

However, there is a fatal problem in that you cannot attempt to jump from a flying dragon unless you are on the flying dragon. Since this opportunity has come, let’s solve the problem today..

-Wow! Wow! KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Still, I don't know if it's because it has a 'dragon' in it, but the flying dragon is surprisingly strong. The skin is thick, the muscles are tough, and, unlike other bones, the skull is very hard. I could definitely feel it when I dived to catch delt. Thanks to this, I have a rough idea of ​​how strong a drake's skull can be without breaking it..

Of course, even the drake exposed to unreasonable violence had an instinct for survival, so it struggled to escape as soon as it hit the ground after being hit by the first death blow, but due to its long neck, the sad monster's struggles were easily neutralized by simply climbing on its neck and attaching a mount..

"No, is this really a idiot?! What on earth do you do in this situation?!"

On my side, Lanje, who was witnessing the scene of the theft of transportation, which started with a very reasonable decision, screamed. Turning his head, he saw Lanje crushing the foot of the third drake, which had just raised its claws as it attempted to descend..

She screamed and struck the chest of the falling flying dragon with a clean full swing, making a sound that sounded like something that shouldn't come from the body of a living creature. She looked at me and scolded me without paying any attention to the dead flying dragon or the demons beneath it..

"Oh really! Just kill me! What on earth is that?!"

"Please wait a moment. A drake pilot told me that a drake can be tamed with violence.."

"How on earth can you use such an ignorant method...huh? is not it? Come to think of it, I think I heard something like that...."

Of course you've heard of it. This is a story told by a dragon pilot recognized by the royal family..

Fortunately, when two drakes climbed into the netherworld in an instant and one was unable to move, the remaining drakes that were running with great momentum stopped suddenly and hovered in the air, so I was able to safely try to discipline (physically) the drakes. After hitting exactly six more blows, the response of the flying dragon, which was struggling and screaming furiously, changed..

-Kirrrrr! Kirrr!

"crazy god..."

Ranje's astonished reaction continued behind me, but that was probably a good thing..

If we were to be honest, it was very obvious what the sight of the flying dragon, which stopped struggling and fell flat on the ground while making a sound similar to the whining of dogs, meant..

"sit down."

When I ordered him to stop punching, the dragon was caught by the neck, so he struggled but somehow managed to get into a sitting position. As expected, inputting basic commands when raising an animal is regardless of dimension or species..

It was a very satisfactory result, so I used my magic to retrieve the ax and moved from its neck to its body and mounted it..

Now is the time to test the results of accelerated training....

"...What is that??"

In order to prepare for all situations, I activated my magic power and saw a strange flow of magic power from the corpse of the dead demon king..

I got off the flying dragon and searched the guy's arms, and somehow a strangely familiar object came out..

"Holy fuck."

"why are you like that?"

Even though I let go of her hand, Lanje approached me with a look of bewilderment at the calm flying dragon, but I was so shocked that it was difficult for me to even respond..

"If I had half-heartedly aimed for the torso, I would have been screwed.."

What came out of their arms was an object that gave off energy similar to the magic bomb I detonated at the gate of the abandoned dungeon..

◈

It was a bizarre sight.

Anyone who saw a human suddenly beating a flying dragon with his fist on the main street of the outer castle, which had become a battlefield, would think so. If you look at it simply, it could be seen as truly ridiculous and like a person who went wild due to the atmosphere of the battlefield....

If the target is Eldmia, who crawled through the defense forces and created a huge hole in the defense, the story is bound to be a little different..

Since the three drakes were instantly incapacitated, rather than making a hasty move, the leader of the drake unit decided to change his goal again and deal with the human army approaching from outside, and quickly ordered his subordinates..

"Damn it! First, let’s check the human army first! Fire a signal and let the inner city know.!"

"First of all, stop that person..."

"It's a waste of firepower! Leave it to the ground forces.!"

I was dumbfounded as to what on earth he was doing, but I couldn't laugh at him because two dragons were killed by that ridiculous guy. Therefore, the subordinate's opinion of shooting magic was something I could fully sympathize with, but they did not have the luxury of such luxury right now..

The Demon King's army's flying dragon unit is close to a kind of flying tank unit..

Of course, they are not completely the same, so those who are somewhat skilled move alone, but usually the rider and attacker move together. They were also treated as 'somewhat' skilled veteran horsemen, but the fact that they were riding two on each drake was evidence that both their skill in driving the drake and their level of magic were insufficient..

Those who can ride a drake alone have superior skills in every way. This is natural as it was a unit created in the first place after facing such an enemy..

However, in this superior force, three of them, who were in the position of senior sergeants and had the most outstanding skills except the captain, caused confusion with a hand-to-hand attack and tried to escape, but they all died without even being able to use their hands properly..

Thanks to this, I could no longer use even a single spell carelessly. However, he couldn't use magic tools to counter the military's spell interference, so the right answer was to move on now..

"Ah, I see! Break through the outer walls! All drakes sortie! I'll send you a signal!"

It was a painful mistake, but now the priority is to slow down the breached gates, half-destroyed walls, and oncoming enemies even a little. The leader of the flying dragon unit drove the flying dragon, hoping that his judgment would not be wrong, and his subordinates followed him into battle stance..

To be exact, I was trying to get into a combat stance.'.

-Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

If it weren't for the howl of a flying dragon suddenly approaching from below as soon as we got over the castle wall..

"Captain! No, he rode a dragon.!"

"what?!"

The person who brought about terrible results on earth even controls the flying dragon.?

For a moment, I felt dizzy without realizing it, and when I turned my head, I saw that Eldmia was indeed ascending rapidly, riding the dragon she had been defeating just moments ago. Of course, it is not uncommon to correct a flying dragon that is excessively disobedient by swinging a whip at it, but even so, it can be done with just a brief strike with your fist.!

I felt like my stomach was twisted by the absurdity, but regardless, the decision was cool and quick..

"Anyway, it's just a matter of moving around! Now it's the military first! As soon as you arrive above the enemies, throw magic bullets and pour out magic.!"

It was an extremely reasonable and normal judgment. Even if they could properly drive the flying dragon and catch up with them, how would they attack it? I couldn't be tied down in dealing with this guy when the only thing I could do was cause a conflict between dragons. If we do that, we will be unable to respond to the magic unleashed by the wizards on the ground, and we will end up on the receiving end..

It was a common sense thought that anyone would nod their heads over when they heard it....

The problem was that the other person was a human being who was far from common sense..

"Ahhhh!"

I didn't see how it started. By the time I turned my head, the rider at the rear had died and a huge two-handed ax had been lodged in the attacker's back..

I didn't even know how they killed the rider. The only thing that is certain is that Eldmia is flying without slowing down at all, and that the two-handed ax that fell from the attacker's body as it fell to the ground returned to its owner's grasp as if it was only natural..

"shit! attack! Attack! This guy can attack from a distance! Fumi blocks Eldmia!"

How many times do you make a wrong decision?.

At the command given while holding back the desire to fly directly, the four flying dragons circled and tried to move to aim for Eldmia, and if they had flown as is, Eldmia flew at a speed that would have been enough to collide with someone. Just before they split to the left and right, there was something in her arms. took out and threw it.

"magic bullet!?"

A consumable magic tool created because it cannot skillfully destroy spell interference or pour in magic from outside the area like the human dragon knight. Even though it was an item that could not be used unless manipulated in a certain way for security reasons, Eldmia had no hesitation in acting as if she knew what it was..

-profit!

After that action, all the leader of the flying dragon unit could see was a sudden hole created by a magical bullet thrown into the air, and a magic barrier spreading around Eldmia..

-Kwaaaaang!!

Because the subsequent flashes and explosions engulfed his vision, he was unable to see the four drakes and their riders caught in the explosion and flames caused by the destruction of the magic bullet and facing death. He was unable to come to his senses not only from the visual shock but also from the shock of the sudden situation, but even that did not last long..

Before the heat and smoke from the explosion caused by the magic bullet could subside, Eldmia burst through it and threw the ax..

This is the last registered session.

drakes are smart.

It's not just domesticated species that are smart. The premise does not change just because it is a wild drake. Rather, they only become more clever and skilled at using their own tricks..

However, apart from the drake's intelligence, there was one characteristic that was not particularly well known: it was sensitive to magical power. Humans do not know this because they cannot use magical power, but demons only recently adopted the idea that they use drakes, so the characteristic that has not yet been systematically understood is related to the birth of drakes..

Nowadays, they are treated as a little troublesome monsters and are considered very insignificant, but they are beasts that inherit the blood of the dragon, who can be said to be the progenitor of mana and magic, even if only slightly. Rather, it can be said that it is strange that one does not feel magical power..

The drake could not use magic or apply magical power. He just fears beings with magical powers from the realm of instinct..

That's why the flying dragon that was hit by Eldmia with its magic-filled fist was afraid of him..

It only took less than ten punches for her fear to turn into obedience, for her to follow orders as best as she could understand and not run away even when Eldmia let go, but that was enough for the drake..

And after flying through the sky several times, the dragon realized that his judgment was right..

Throw a weapon to kill them, explode something to kill them all, and suddenly jump to another drake and kill them directly. The fact that there were more dead enemies than alive, even though it was just flying, came as a novel shock to the flying dragon..

No need to claw, hit or bite..

Just fly and the scary human will take care of it..

and become safe.

It was a moment when the formation of trust, which can be said to be one of the core processes that Ethisel's drake pilots and knights learn through years of interaction with the drake, was completed with just a punch..

"Come on!"

As soon as the human voice reached the ears of the flying dragon, which had suddenly reached the point where it seemed as if it had achieved liberation in a mysterious enlightenment, the flying dragon, which had been waiting for the human in a circle in the air, naturally moved according to the call..

◈

When I saw the flying dragon circling above my head like a crow stalking its prey, I shouted, and it very naturally turned its gaze towards me and began to approach me at high speed..

"Why are you so obedient?...?"

To be honest, I thought I could run away the moment I jumped off the guy's back and attacked the other drake....

What about running away? If someone who doesn't know you sees it, they listen to it so well that they think it's a pet they've raised for 10 years, so it's rather astounding..

Well... After killing the flying dragon I was riding with the mindset that good things are good things, I looked back and the sky was clean. Although another unit of flying dragons was seen flying from the inner castle in the distance, there should be no problem once the army advances and enters the outer castle..

Certainly, as I felt during the last hijacking, the aerial power of the Demon King's army was nothing compared to that of the flying dragon and its occupants. Of course, it is true that just spraying a magic bomb like this from above a person's head to neutralize the wizard's spell interference and then embedding magic in it was enough to be threatening, but the Drake Knight is not at that level..

The one who was able to hold out the best was the owner of the flying dragon that had just climbed on. When he tried to dive, he died with an expression on his face as if he had been defeated by the whole world..

"Hmm, what should I do?."

Anyway, after working hard to gain air superiority, I folded my arms and fell into trouble, admiring the flying dragon's cleverness in maintaining its altitude as if it were natural when I didn't give it any other instructions..

There is only one magic bomb left in my hand.

It wasn't a dangerous item that would just explode if you just smashed it, so it was good that it took down the Demon King's army's flying dragon unit without any hesitation, but of course, it couldn't be refilled.

It's almost the size of a 500ml plastic bottle, so I regret only bringing three of them. After seeing the benefits of this fantasy-style grenade, which boasts outstanding performance, I realized that I had to fight twenty drakes with just one....

...It's very annoying.

"It is true that I have fulfilled my role to this extent...."

Standing at the crossroads of whether to continue to dominate the air superiority and help our allies, or to step back and inspect the unexpected trophy, the flying dragon, I thought about it for about 30 more seconds and drove the flying dragon back toward the city..

If nothing else, this bomb cannot be dealt with by any means..

Even I can't stop this from happening..

In the case of magic tools that prevent the use of elemental magic or magic when activated, it is possible to neutralize them with my own abilities because they continuously absorb and release the magic power of the area, but this is a structure close to self-development without the magic power flowing outward. It didn't work. My ability is closer to disconnecting the cord of an externally powered home appliance, so I am extremely shabby when it comes to things that run on batteries..

But they explode something like this in the outer castle to prevent the enemy from entering? There may be more people killed by explosions or debris than soldiers killed in battle. Fortunately, I couldn't use the advance guard I had assigned in time because the army was still in the open field and had to approach, so it wouldn't be a big deal if they decided to attack me in the city center..

This doesn't seem to be a new weapon that was revealed for the first time today, so battlefield veterans may be preparing their own countermeasures....

It's a bit inefficient to try to solve a problem before it happens and then sort it out. Unlike the outer castle, the trick I tried won't be able to attack the inner castle, so it's right to minimize damage to allies..

After making that decision, I checked the area with the most people among the rapidly approaching flying dragon units and then picked up the pace..

It was a bonus to burn my will to refill this time..

◈

From the command post, Alt, who was looking at the outer walls of the city that were destroyed so quickly and unexpectedly, gave an order after a short period of thought..

"Move the command post."

"What location do you have in mind??"

"In front of the outer castle gate. Do not go inside."

Originally, once the command post was in position, it did not move until the siege was over, but due to the long battle with the Demon King's army, their field manuals had many differences from existing common sense. And one of the most representative examples was the movement of the command post during a siege..

The demons never fixed their powerful troops to protect just one city. Do whatever you can to move as much as possible and take advantage of it, but if something goes wrong at the base, retreat while the defensive troops hold out and aim for the rear. Therefore, the siege war targeting the Demon King's army begins after there is a high probability of breaking through the outer castle..

The reason they were able to respond in such a ridiculous way that the human race wouldn't even dare to do was because they were the demon race..

This is possible because of using magic power, and based on that magic power, the gate can be applied in a much more diverse way than the humans. Even in most cases, individual strength is far superior to that of the human race, so it is not uncommon for them to have superior firepower even though the number of moving troops and materials is relatively small..

How much damage was inflicted by that ridiculous mobility in the early days of the war? In a way, it was a natural progression that the command post, which had been close to watching from the rear, was transformed to be a little closer to the battlefield and to issue orders as quickly as one minute and one second. At first, there were many opinions that the command center would be exposed to danger as a result, but this is a counterargument that no longer exists. When dealing with demons, the danger is the same no matter where the command center is..

However, since this attack on the outer castle went in a direction that no one could have expected, it was clear that the enemy would not be able to respond properly. And Alt had no intention of wasting the enormous profits he gained from this..

"Contact the cities in the rear and tell them to move their troops. Report the situation to the royal family. Maybe this time, instead of just taking Levien, we can push the front line a little bit.."

The achievements that Eldmia has achieved are enormous..

He breaks through the outer walls alone, and counterattacks even the enemy's flying dragon units that attempt to bomb him, causing almost no casualties. Thinking that this would be an unprecedented siege in the entire history of the kingdom, Alt turned his gaze to Margrave Levien, who was calmly examining the map of the battlefield, leaving his men behind as they left the command post to carry out orders..

"Did you expect this??"

I couldn't help but ask. Because it made no sense.

If a human can do something like that in a siege against demons, it goes without saying in a war between humans. In the future, if the royal family and nobles, led by the Margrave Levien, attacked another country, I could not even imagine how quickly and quickly the conquest would be achieved..

There are simply more strong people than you think. However, there are only a few who are strong enough to shatter such existing common sense. Even Eld Mia has just become an adult, so she has plenty of room to grow further..

'That's a strategic weapon. A strategic weapon that is bound to cause trouble if held by a nobleman. If Margrave Levien had indeed predicted all this, Alt was planning to submit a report containing a warning to the royal family..

"Do you mean breaking through the outer walls without taking any damage? no. I had no idea."

However, the noble girl, who was good at hiding her emotions, remained oblivious. In contrast to her calm tone, there is life in her eyes. However, there was no way to know whether it was the joy of a commander who was satisfied with the result as expected, or the joy of a person who was avenging the past of losing his family and having his territory taken away..

What meaning does today’s battle have for a girl who almost lost her family at a young age?.

The incident at the time, when they were pushed into a quick attack due to lack of knowledge about the demons' tactics, was a humiliating and painful past for the kingdom. This time, the enemy was pushed back with a quick attack, so perhaps he was feeling a sense of accomplishment from having achieved revenge..

"We've been together for a long time, but I can't figure it out.."

Alt thought as he looked at Margrave Levien smiling as he finished speaking..

Somehow, I feel like Lanje is seeing himself when he made both an event and an achievement happen at the same time..
