Chapter 187 – King of War (2)

Numerous ice ducks created through Adella’s unique magic scouted around the floating island and asked for various information.
Terra Ernisten’s telegraph line was gradually taking over the air rights to Fenheim.

While returning to Parencia after listening to her older sister’s advice, Adela witnessed this.
Seeing countless soldiers bleeding and fighting on the northern front.

Knowing that their sacrifice was a danger to the kingdom and that those demons were fierce enemies who had caused trouble for her beloved Luis, she changed direction without hesitation.
As a huge flock of ice ducks appeared from the sky and rushed towards the demons, the Federation soldiers were barely able to maintain the front line.
For several days, I met Louise while she was throwing ice cubes at her pitch-black demons below.
His purpose was very exciting to Adela.

“Are you asking for the Federation’s cooperation?”
“Uh.”
“Leave that to me, teacher!”

The corners of her pretty mouth went up to just below her ears.
It was from the joy of being able to help the teacher.

What is the 12 League?
The successors of 108 knights and wizards who left their hometowns and families and gathered in the mountains during the Great War, when humanity was on the verge of extinction.
Humanity’s strongest shield and Penheim’s greatest armed force that has not been breached even once for over ten years since the Great War.
They were veterans specialized in combat, comparable to the Holy Light Knights, who were considered the most noble in the Holy Kingdom.

Convince those who are as proud as the soldiers of Rochear?
It was absolutely impossible to treat even the royal family carelessly.

“I’ll go to the Federation and try to talk!”
“You?”
“Yes! “Even if it’s like this, everyone over there still owes me!”

Adela puffed out her breasts proudly.
Now it was time to prove her worth to Louise.
The Federation will definitely welcome him with open arms for protecting them so far.
Aboard her ice duck, she sailed through the sky, the green cape of a first-year student at Farencia Academy swinging wildly.

“I will come back after agreeing to all the requests you mentioned!! “

And after a while.

.
.
.

“Hhhhh!!!! Sean saengniii——!!!!”
“… “What’s going on?”
“I’m busy, so go away…” … Ugh, as soon as I said it… ! Sniff! The head was right… ! My ice ducks… ! Hiccup! I ate all the food… ! Heep!”

Louis looks beyond dumbfounded and looks like he has been liberated.
He spoke as he comforted Adela, who was shedding tears.

“I could have easily done it without you having to do anything.”
“Yes… ?”
“Adela, what about negotiations?”

His eyes turned to the battlefield.
It was an unbelievable sense of relaxation as we were at the forefront of the continent, with the demons gathered below.
It seems like a wait-and-see approach, but there is a strong will to never sit back and watch.
At that sight, Adela opened her mouth slightly without realizing it.

“This is only done when one side is unable to gain the upper hand.”

Lewis, who had been comforting her crying, walked away.
However, rather than heading to the battlefield, he walked to a nearby ice chair that Adela had built to command the island.
She naturally sat with her legs crossed and looked at the reflection of her sword in the dark sky of the demon world.
And then he patted the seat next to him.

“Don’t just stand there, come here. Dangerous.”
“Yes?”

As Lewis spoke, a ray of light passed by in an instant, then changed direction vertically and struck the ground.
At the beginning of the mountain range where demons are constantly rushing in, between the border with the demon world.
And a moment later, all the scenery visible outside the floating island was swept away by the extreme light rising from below.

〈 Unique Magic: Sword of Judgment ⌜Judgement Sword⌟〉

Kwahiah ah ———— !!!!!

The light erased half of the demons that stretched all the way to the horizon, and shook the island with a tremendous roar.
Adela managed to catch the floating island that was about to fall, and mobilized all her magical power to freeze the melting lower part of the island.
The earth shook, the clouds evaporated, and the screams of the demons disappeared without even a single ash.

“Oh, it’s noisy.”

Lewis sat calmly in his chair and raised his left hand, which had been covering his ears, to his head.

Widely.

“It’s been a while since I wrote… “The performance is good.”

The sight of him cooling off after elegantly swinging his shining sword back on its own.
Adela made a promise, recalling the pain she felt in her swollen cheek.

No matter what happens next time, let’s listen to what the teacher says.

***

“Is it really okay if I send you away like that?”

Kundra, the leader of the scout battalion skirmishers, the third group belonging to the 12 Alliance of Ravier Mountains, asked cautiously.
The federation’s leadership was talking about the girl who had just been hit on the head by the food manager.
The groans of the wounded and the sound of weapons coming from outside made it clear that this meeting would not last very long.

“It’s okay, it’s Rochear.”

The woman who answered bluntly was Yerina Bartler, a new member of the Blue Moon Battle Wizards who succeeded the retired Valerie.

“I guess they’re just trying to scratch the surface. “They’re taking care of everything here, even those who should go to them, but it’s annoying to just watch from the sky without any worries.”
“But what was requested from the Federation was not a message worth sending from Rochear? Isn’t that right, Captain?”

When Mareil of the Counterintelligence Battalion Goliath asked, Mateus answered.

“I wouldn’t tell you to hand over leadership of the Federation unless Ice and Snowball went crazy. “The lake is so peaceful, unless the moths sting and they want to go to war with us.”
“It’s strange, but the royal family wouldn’t ask for something like this… “Hublett, is there a corner somewhere you can pinch yourself?”
“…”
“Hublett?”
“That woman, I think it would be best to call her again.”

A long-haired man with a sword at his waist opened his mouth heavily.
His tied up hair, old sword, and first-class medal, which he was the only one among those gathered here, caught my eye.
The head of the Hawkclaw Knights of Hooksclaw.
It was the white knight, Hublett Barenkov.

“Then let’s decide by vote.”
“There’s no time, so let’s decide quickly.”

The battle was still going on.
Following Yerina’s opinion, the twelve representatives of the federation sat down.

“Now, is there anyone who wants to meet the little boy from Rochear again and seriously listen to that ridiculous proposal? Raise your hand!”

Only three people raised their hands.
Hubblet and his expression were strangely stiff.
Kundra is cautious in everything.

“Adela Sylvester… Parencia Academy?”

And Mateus changed his attitude after hearing Mareil’s whisper.
The remaining members expressed their refusal by putting their hands under the table.

“It’s decided, then… !”

Kwahiah ah ———— !!!!!

“Kyaahiah — — !!!”

At that time, there was an ear-piercing explosion and an intense flash of light that covered the entire mountain range.
The federation’s representatives, who sensed that something big had happened, immediately rushed out of the conference room and checked the situation.

“What!? “What’s going on!!”
“That…”

The sight reflected before their eyes.
A beautiful sword stuck alone on the border of Helzeb, which was teeming with demons just a moment ago.
And the demons were shocked as they looked back at the fact that the main force behind them was instantly annihilated.

***

When I arrived at the Alliance camp, I was guided to the top of the mountain range without any restraint.
The soldiers guided Adela and I to the leaders of the alliance, looking as if they were fascinated by the holy sword that had been thrown a moment ago.
Adela, who stood by her side as if it were my own doing, stopped at the door and I told them Terra’s demands once again.
I felt a deep sense of disbelief and embarrassment as their eyes focused on the medal hanging on my chest.

“No way! This is a scam… !!”

Blue Moon’s leader was the only one who remained sane.
They probably don’t remember, but there were many faces they saw in Baldur’s nightmare.
The commander of the Battle Wizards at that time was an old man, but like Adalbert, he seems to have retired now.
Instead, the bright blue female wizard waved her staff at me and shouted.
It was extremely against the aristocratic etiquette that had been taught since the first year of the academy.

“The leadership of the Federation has never been passed since that military flag was planted at the top of the mountain range!! Do you think I’ll hand it over to someone like you!?”
“You’re giving it to Terra, not me?”
“That doesn’t make any more sense!! Our Blue Moon Battle Wizards are struggling under a wizard with no family tree? “It would be better if I died here. No way!”

The characteristics of a wizard, with his academic achievements and clear affiliation, were clearly revealed here as well.
But if you’re an alliance wizard who’s far from the Magic Tower, you probably won’t be too concerned about that, right?
While I was wondering whether I should protect the mountain range with the 11-member alliance system in the future, Yerina’s small muttering continued.

“… “Scarlett wouldn’t know.”

Ah, you’re from the Magic Tower.
I heard from Darling that the investigator who came earlier due to friction with the Roshoar family was also managed through the Mage Tower and the alliance.
It seems that personnel transfers have become quite free since the war, and for me, it was a perfect situation.
Her Nan picked up one of her communication crystals that was rolling around on her table and threw it at her.

“Connect to Dube Magic Tower.”
“Yes… ?”
“Do it.”

***

“No, yes. Sorry, Scarlett. I’ll skip it right away… No no! Nothing! I haven’t used any magic! Yes, take a look! Thank you… !”

Pop.

“Agree…”

It will be like that a long time ago.
Leaving behind the still unconscious members of the alliance, I immediately got up to go to my next destination.
It may only be a short while, but the northern part has been roughly cleaned up and Adella has been recovered, so there is nothing more to see here.

“Then I will go, so when the telegraph comes by, don’t miss it and catch it.”
“Now, wait! Who the hell are you!! Uh, how could that, that… !”

The pupils move back and forth with a tremor similar to a pendulum movement.
A triangular flight to and from the entrance to the Demon World, where a huge crater was created, and the medal on my face and chest.
This was the case not only for Yerina but also for all the soldiers present.
Wivlett, who had the same medal as me, was also receiving a lot of attention.

“…”
“…”

With a complicated expression on his face, he hesitated whether he should explain to them who I was.
If you carelessly open your mouth and reveal things from the past one by one, the fire spreads to the story about Eris.
If that happens, he might find it difficult to keep his oath.

“Hublett, do you know each other by any chance?”

Mateus, who had the most secrets about Penheim after the royal family, seemed very uncomfortable.
It was natural that most of the information to be handed over to Terra would be documents related to the war owned by Goliath.
It is clear that Hubblet kept secret everything that happened during the Great War, even while he was wandering in the mountains for over ten years.
It must feel like the name of the counterintelligence battalion has been tarnished.

“We know each other.”
“Louis… !?”

I smiled lightly at a friend I hadn’t seen in a long time.
Still deep in thought and not rusty.
You have to be at the level of the upper bullet to be able to place it on top of his head.
As I stepped forward, Mateus’ attention shifted to this direction.

“The person who brought Terra Ernisten’s instructions is also acquainted with Wiblet… “I can’t help but ask who you are.”

In Baldur’s nightmare, Matheus granted my request and gave Lehel her old Four-Leaf Medal.
As a result, I was able to attract Yoon Hoe-gong, who came running after Han Dal-eum, into the battlefield, and I was given the freedom to face the evil of destruction alone.

“What are you…?” … Something?”

Even if you tell them who it is, they won’t understand.
It’s clear that after I leave, I’ll be struggling with the meaning that won’t come out even if I look through the books for a long time.
Even if you urgently send a telegram and inquire to the royal family and the magic tower, you won’t get any information.
Then, after about ten years, you may completely forget a single word… It’s probably possible.

“Me?”

But it doesn’t matter.
Hell spreads beneath those mountains.
And all the hells that followed.
The memory of today is the sword that created it.

“Warrior.”

Because it will remain in their minds forever.
