After joining the three of them, Leorde defeated the remaining two soldiers cyanide without difficulty. The other two had some cuts on them. Leolde approached them, guessing that the three agents had probably attacked them with their weapons.
"Are you hurt?"
" . No problem , sir ."
The one who answered was Monica, one of the intelligence agents. She may be a woman, but she's been selected by Sylvia, and her abilities are solid.
"I see. Then we will leave in a hurry. Perhaps they heard the sounds of the battle earlier, but there were some magical responses.
" If we stay here, we'll end up fighting again. Our mission is to defeat the Emperor. We can't afford to be stranded. Let's go!"
After confirming that there were multiple magical reactions approaching, Leolde gave the order to leave the place as soon as possible and ran off.
Following Roselinde , Leolde and the others reached the underground canal of the castle in the center of the imperial capital.
However, it was a dead end and they could not go on. Then Roselinde go ahead Leolde and stood in front of the wall.
"Your Highness, are you sure we are in the right place?"
" Yes, I'm sure this is the right place. Normally, you can't enter this place, but if you're a member of the royal family, you can put your hand on this wall and ... "
...It will disappear like a puzzle."
"Right? Isn't that great?"
Roselinde turned to Leolde and the others with a proud look on her face, as if she had done a great job.
Seeing her face, Leolde's eyebrows twitched slightly.
(......Do you want Sieg to praise you?
*She makes it seem as if it's her power, but it's the power of her ancestors.)(
(It's a good thing. The way is clear. All I have to do now is infiltrate the castle and defeat the emperor.)
Leolde is letting out a sigh in his heart, but struggles , began from here .
The emperor now has the empire's strongest Flame Emperor by his side. If they want to defeat the emperor, they can't avoid him as opponent.
How will Leole be able to defeat the Flame Emperor?
While Leolde and co safely arrived at the imperial capital, a defensive battle was about to begin in Ze'at.
From the observation platform of Ze'at Fort, it could be seen a large army of Imperial troops. There were several times more of them than the Kingdom's army, even at a cursory glance.
The kingdom's army consisted of 30,000 knights. In contrast, the imperial army had 70,000. The fact that the difference is twice as large can be said to be a difference in national power.
If they knew this fact, the morale of the Kingdom's army would surely drop at once.
The knight who confirmed the appearance of the imperial army at the observatory hurriedly delivered a report to Baynard, the general of the kingdom army.
When Baynard received the report, he looked up to the sky.
(A large imperial army? It's probably almost twice the size of the Kingdom's army. In any case, the other side's army is incomparable in military power as well as numbers .)
(If they serious about attacking us , it's only natural. How long will we be able to hold out?)
Baynard is a battle freak , but that's his personal thing , and right now the survival of his country is at stake, so he is calmly analyzing out the situation.
After a while of quiet thought, Baynard instructed his subordinates and gathered his commanders for a military meeting in a conference room inside Fort Ze'at.
A few dozen commanders gathered under Baynard command . More than half of them were incompetent nobles who had never experienced actual combat.
The only saving grace was the two men left by Leolde, Barbaroto and Jex. , whom Baynard trusted since Leoldoe had given them his stamp of approval.
"I'm glad you're here. As you may already know, the Imperial Army has finally crossed the border and invaded our country."
"The imperial army has just been sighted from Fort Ze'at. Their numbers are unknown, but they are probably larger than our kingdom Army."
" We're supposed to be on the defensive this time, but we don't know how long Fort Ze'at will hold out."
"That's why we're going to make our move. Does anyone have any ideas?""
The commanders participating in the military discussion kept looking away from Baynard.
As far as he was concerned, Baynard was on the verge of lamenting the fact that no one was worthy of the title, but when he saw Barbaroto raise his hand, his clouded expression brightened.
"Captain Barbaroto of the Ze'at Knight Unit, you have permission to speak. Go ahead."
"Yes! Commander Baynard. I propose a diversionary strategy!"
"First of all, we, the Zeat Knight unit , will act as a decoy and launch a suicide attack against the enemy. There are only two hundred of us, but I'm sure the Imperial Army will be surprised and confused by our small numbers."
"When they are confused, the hungry wolf unit led by Captain Jex attacks from the flank."
What do you think?"
"Hmm. It's not bad, but it's going to be tough. "
"And while it's fine to launch a surprise attack, where are you planning to do it from?"
" What are your thoughts on that?"
"Don't worry about that. We, the Zeat Knight Unit, have a secret weapon given to us by Lord Leorde. The Hungry Wolf Unit also has a secret weapon."
The commander of the noblemen who had remained silent took a bite out of that statement.
"What ? The secret weapon given to you by Count Leolde?"
Is it possible to show it here and now?"
"Yes, sir."
"Then let's see it.
"I'm sorry, sir, but this is not a place for this ."
"You can't listen to me, the eldest son of a viscount!"
When Barbaroto was about to argue with the angry commander, a thumping sound echoed across the desk. The commander, who calls himself the eldest son of the Viscount family, shivered at the sound.
"Now is not the time for our allies to fight each other."
The commander, who had been angry with Barbaroto due to fear of Baynard's gaze, looked down in silence. Then Baynard next looks at Barbaroto.
"Captain Barbaroto. You can be sure in that secret weapon of yours, can't you?"
"Yes, sir!""
"All right. Then I will allow you to carry out your mission."
"Let's show the Imperial Guard what we're made of!
And so the battle to determine the future of Ze'at was about to begin.
After joining the three of them, Leorde defeated the remaining two soldiers cyanide without difficulty. The other two had some cuts on them. Leolde approached them, guessing that the three agents had probably attacked them with their weapons.
