Chapter 358 – The Sortie

Chapter 358: Sortie

A few days later.
At the end of the rainy season, we gathered in the conference room.

“Are you all ready?”

“Well, of course.”

“Huh, I’m scared.
Are you saying we can end the war with this one shot?”

“Right.”

I, Van Dark, Adolph.
Everyone is stretching.
Information may leak when dispatched from the parade ground, so it was decided to depart safely indoors.
Behind us, about 10 soldiers selected as assassins are lined up nervously.

Hehe, this is the one that puts an end to the long war with my hand.
This will go down in history
Ouch (boy), say hello to the deputy commander.”

“Hello!”

A young man with kangaroo ears and tail standing next to Adolf greeted him bravely.
Similar to Adolf, he wore steel gloves with exposed fingers, and carried a short bow and a long bow respectively on his back.

“This ah- is my son Asuf.
My 8th wife’s 4th son now.
Go together.”

“Are you okay?”

“What are you talking about with your losing wife? (What did you say while taking her wife?)
He looks just like me, so he’s good at shooting, and kangaroo kickboxing is great too, doesn’t it?”

“What about fluidization?”

“Of course it is possible.”

“Yeah, that’s good.
The whole set.”

All gathered under me.

“Van Dark.”

When I nodded, Van Dark, who was in charge of selecting assassins and establishing an operation plan, stepped forward.
Truly, the person in charge of this assassination operation.

“I believe that all of you understand the importance of this operation.
I will brief you on the name of the operation, ‘Fire Fox Hunt’.
Let’s see the way
Master.”

At Van Dark’s request, Nene floated Katherine’s figure in the air with illusion magic.
An orphan princess with platinum blonde hair braided to one side.
Slightly short in stature and compact in stature.
A being like a model of a princess in a fairy tale.
I suddenly remembered her crushing me with her mad expression and moving her waist.
Damn…

“This is our target, Catherine Amitie, who pretends to be Queen of Amitie.
Kill immediately upon discovery.
If it is difficult to move the body, decapitate her and bring it back.
If things don’t go well, cut off the ringed finger on my left ring finger here.”

At Van Dark’s calm tone, Stella’s expression hardened slightly when she was next to me.

“Next, let’s look at the internal structure.
Master?”

As Nene moves her hand, a bird’s-eye view of the palace appears next to Catherine’s vision.
This is Nene’s visualization of the interior map Stella-kun brought when they escaped from the palace.

“It is an internal map that you must have engraved in your brain enough to recall it in your dreams.
The problem is that it will be broken here and there due to the battle and looting during the last escape from the palace, and the magic bombardment of the gold dragon.
Master?
Great.
The fantasy next to this bird’s eye view is the interior situation you’ve been familiar with for days.
As this is an illusion created by combining the memories of escaping from the palace, it seems to be quite different now.
It may have been neglected or repaired or remodeled, so there are many variables to consider.
Therefore, Adolf and other personnel open the way through sniping or fluid infiltration.
In particular, the warriors of the Leopard Beast tribe are expected to successfully lead the night infiltration by fully demonstrating their abilities.
Keep in mind
Minimize magic support.
The enemy will carry a magic induction torch in preparation for wartime situations.
Since the torch is a green flame, the person who possesses the green torch is the first priority.
As follows, the Royal Magic Division wearing robes is also the first target to be eliminated.
Next.”

At Van Dark’s words, Nene waved her hand once more, revealing a large, unfurnished room this time.

“This is the ‘Queen’s bed’ from which we will begin our operation.
It’s right next to the king’s bed, and unlike the king’s bed, it’s not a magic nullification area, so you can open the dimensional door and reach it right away.
The illusion was closely observed using observation magic, so it must have almost the same structure.
To understand.
Next.”

Whirik.

“The operation is as follows.
After a while, around midnight, the queen’s bedroom opens the dimension and infiltrates.
Go through the corridors, take one corner to reach the King’s bed and kill Katherine.
As we saw in the previous vision, there are decorations in the corridors, but they are not suitable for concealment and cover.
It is also said that the lights are turned on to some extent even at night.
It will be roughly the brightness you see in this fantasy.
Since the hallway ceiling is high, make use of the upper space.
The target’s likely escape routes are windows and doors through the next room.
The next room has another window and a door to the hallway, so we plan to occupy it together.
In the hallway, it is expected that there will be royal knights fully armed with armor, helmets, and shin guards, and royal wizards patrolling irregularly.
Especially here, in this vision, the masked men in black cloaks are the Law Guards.
Although they are cathedral troops, they are powerful, emotionally castrated, use swordsmanship and miracles, and sometimes wield strange weapons.
Sometimes here, um… Thank you.
Like this illusion, there is a high chance of turning into a tentacle monster, so be careful.
The attack method when transforming into a monster is a fire attribute attack.
Don’t rush into it without the support of Ludvik, the fire-specialist who accompanies you.
More.”

After Van Dark’s briefing, I step forward this time.

“As everyone practiced moving through the portals, beware of dimensional sickness.
Master? Thank you.
When a woman appears here wearing this illusory gray nun’s uniform and an eyepatch, be very careful.
He can launch invisible slashing attacks from a long distance, and he has no footsteps or other signs of movement.
Be careful not to get caught behind or above when moving.
And here, the bastard we all know.”

Alberic embodied in Nene’s fantasy.
A handsome blond man with a greasy smile appeared.

“At the time of the last encounter, most of the pieces of the combination artifact, the Angelic Alliance, were collected.
According to intelligence, he is currently on the front line, but if time passes in the event of an attack on the palace, there is a possibility that he will return with Rousseau’s Mass Teleport.
In the worst case, if the Angelic Alliance combination comes back with success, absolutely avoid combat.
To run unconditionally.
Our target is Katherine, not Alberic.
If Catherine dies, it is certain that Alberic will be ousted as well.
Don’t worry, just find your target.”

At my remark, Adolf raised his hand.

“Inspiration, I have a question.”

“Say.”

“What the hell is the Angelic Alliance, and should I avoid it because of that one?”

“Well, that’s a good question.
As we saw in last week’s training, the Valkyrie Armor provides an invisible barrier along with strong strength, magical power, and unique ability enhancement effects.
Wasn’t the delicate Queen Stella able to arm wrestle with you, Adolph?”

“Kuu… !”

In fact, Adolf’s face distorts when he challenged Stella, who bravely wore Valkyrie armor a few days ago, but failed to win.

“The Angelic Alliance is the most powerful combination artifact created in the heavens.
The effect is close to that of Valkyrie Armor.
Except for the flying effect.
The sword of judgment, the shield of faith, the shoes of the gospel, the belt of truth, the breastplate of justice, and the helmet of salvation.
It is said that when these 6 are gathered, it becomes something with the ultimate power of the celestial world.
These six individual items themselves are also a good effect, incidentally receiving various buffs such as blessings and prayers, and amplifying overall physical abilities and unique abilities such as strength, magic power, stamina, and quickness.
To put it simply, it’s an opening item.
Agnes, a gray nun with a long scythe, is a corps commander-level force.
She was only wearing the Valkyrie Armor, and the only one she could stop one on one from us was the same Valkyrie Armor wearer.
Alberic has already defeated Belochov, the commander of the 7th corps, in a one-on-one confrontation, and has a history of defeating two corps commanders in direct combat.
Even then, it was a time when I had less than 3 of those attached items.
And keep in mind that the Angelic Alliance is an artifact that surpasses the Valkyrie Armor.”

“””…”””

The crew members’ faces darkened.

“There is no information that all attached artifacts have been collected yet, and the operation will be over before Alberic returns from the front.
The red dragon Kubydov, who departed first, secretly alone after a patrol flight with Angela’s Royal Griffon unit. It is being infiltrated near the capital.
Send a signal and they will come to support you, don’t worry too much.
The one who is more troublesome than Alberic is here, this old man.”

An old man wearing a gray robe and a gray wizard’s hat, created by Nene’s fantasy.
Impressive long white beard.

“This is Russo, the archmage who leads the Tower of Wizards.
He is the one who spearheaded the recent dragon raid incident and stole the escaped prisoner from the prison break.
He uses various elemental magic, climate magic, and some dimensional magic.
There is a high possibility of stealing the target or calling in reinforcements such as Alberic.
Adolf and other snipers must keep this person in check.”

“””Yes!!”””

Free time after briefing.
I approached Nene and handed out the envelope.

“Accept it.”

“No…”

The purple-haired girl scratching her head slightly.

“Ma’am.”

Dori Dori…

“I want you to accept it.”

“I hate it, I really hate it…”

“It’s just a formality.
Accept it.”

“I really, really hate it…”

She muttered in a mosquito-like voice.
She couldn’t move much for fear that her tears would fall from those big eyes.
It’s embarrassing.

“I will definitely come back. Huh?”

“No… I’ve heard that before…”

“…”

This is the first time I’ve handed over a will to Nene.
I left it with another comrade or gave it to my parents.
She is at a loss for what to do with my will.
The feel of her fingernails and hair through her envelope makes my heart flutter.

“Don’t worry.
Did you promise
I will outlive you
Really don’t worry.”

“Really… ?”

“Then~”

“…”

After looking into my eyes for a while, Nene reluctantly accepted the envelope.
It was inevitable that her ex-husband’s memories would overlap.

***

“We are leaving soon.”

“Are you nervous?”

“Don’t tremble.
As always.”

While I was having a trivial conversation with Van Dark, Marie approached me.

“Sir Angela wants me to tell you.”

“What?”

Jjook.

“…”

“Ayyyyy…
I’m jealous and I should get married or something…”

Marie pretends not to see Van Dark, grumbling from the side.

“And I have mine too…”

Chew… Chu.

“You really need to take care of yourself, Kamyu-nim.”

“Then. I’ll have a good trip.”

I hugged the saintess with big breasts with all my strength.

“I will pray for Kamyu-sama to come back.”

“I’m not familiar with the white sun.”

“Even the sun god will hear this prayer.
Even if you look at me.”

“Please talk to me.
I also dance well to praise him.
Ah hot, ah hot, the love of the sun god~”

“It’s Camuni!!”

Then, I looked at the witch with huge breasts who was hesitating from behind.

“Ma’am?”

“Huh… ?”

I stroked Marie’s back and opened her arms toward Nene.

“Aren’t you going to hug me?”

“…”

Tenderly, she comes closer and hugs her softly.
I just gave it a hug and hugged it tightly.

Side.

There wasn’t much difference in height, so he gave me a kiss on the cheek while holding him.

“Babe.”

“Huh.”

“If you don’t come back… I know I will die.”

“I must come back.”

Chuuuuu… Jjook.

She kisses Nene and hers, and a warm energy is transmitted to her lips.

Klopp…

As if it were natural, he swallowed the energy.
The aura that made her throat burn hot spreads through her stomach… Again, the energy split in half and entered Nene’s mouth.

Chuu, Churrup… Jjook.

“Whoa.
Your life reaction, because I will always feel it…
When this little ember goes out, I really…”

“There is no such thing.
I’ll promise.”

“…”

Heartlessly, time passes.

“Okay, everyone get ready!
We’ll get started in a minute!

Everyone gathers
Wizards install various devices near the magic circle on the floor to help Stella transform the portal.

“Hey, sweet.
Are you ready?”

“Yeah, because I confirmed it again with observation magic.
Since Catherine went into bed, she has not been seen to come out.”

“Right.
Hey, I guess you’re used to wearing the Valkyrie Armor now?”

I stood behind Stella.
I gently massaged her bare ass, which had come out from under the leotard of the Valkyrie armor.

“?!?!
Aren’t you nervous?”

“I’m doing this to relax.”

“Ugh, it’s like a baby Mew… !
What does the demon king say?”

Rumika, who left early for the Demon Castle.
Thanks to her, she didn’t get a farewell.

“I left without saying a word.
He said ‘I believe’.”

“The Demon King is a very strong person.
Yah! Stop touching her ass… !”

“No.
I don’t know what will happen, but I want to touch it to my heart’s content.”

“Everything, other people might see it… !”

“I can’t see. It’s behind us.
You just have to be quiet.”

Oh shit
A chubby duck end, wrapped around her hand.
When wearing the Valkyrie Armor, long boots with high heels are equipped along with white wings and a high-leg leotard.
Thanks to that, the hip-up is done, and the duck bottom is more desirable.

Shred.

“Keugh… !
Would you be okay with that one word?”

“Are you fine.
Because I left something else behind.”

He hides behind Stella’s head and smells Rumika’s panties.
Newly acquired black see-through panties.
I liked the old red panties too…

Artifacts.

“Sue… Haaa… This is good too.”

“Huh, I came here with my hair washed.”

“Did you not smell your hair?”

“Then what did you do?!”

My heart was warmed by the subtle smell of Maou-nim’s pregnant pussy.

“Queen! Get ready!”

“Keugh… Yes!”

Stella memorizes her dimensional magic spell, and Zach, who is in the lead, runs lightly in place.
Zach is the fourth assassin chosen by Van Dark.
Because he is an officer of the Demon King’s Army who is familiar with the geography of the royal palace.
Then, when the dimensional door opens, they line up to rush in.
I’m in the back with Stella who was wearing the Valkyrie armor beforehand.
Van Dark is almost in the lead.
Adolf and Asuf are in front of me.

“Open!”

Jiying—.

A magical portal summoned in front of you, swirling around.
Zach ran as fast as he could and threw himself away.
And all the assassins ran in turn.
To an unknown space, to an unknown future…
To seize victory.
