Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 329

As Asilie said, as dinner time approached, the camp became noisy for a moment as people returned from the defense line.

I was about to sneak out and check it out, but I couldn’t because Asilie blocked me by grabbing my back.

“If I go out now, will it be a mess? My sister will bring me a meal, so just wait.”

“But if you want to see people’s faces…”

“Ragnis and Yekatrina will come on their own, so just wait. I’ll come with you when we meet on the way.”

You suddenly became a superstar Eldmia. At the time, there was no other choice, so it was inevitable, but after passing by, I feel that I did something very annoying.

Of course, if I went back then, I would do the same thing.

I lay on the bed for about 10 minutes while stroking Leica like that. I wondered if I could feel someone’s presence, and then Asilie came back with a hearty meal on a tray very carefully. It’s not a joke, I unknowingly raised my upper body to a very normal menu that made me doubt my eyes.

what am i watching? I thought it would be a relief if there were ingredients in the stew, but there is nothing without bread, etc., in a hearty stew with some kind of grilled chicken.

“What is this…?”

“It’s the food that the Command Headquarters has been preparing for since before Eldi woke up. They served it with such a force that the tray broke because it was different for two people?”

In fact, it was piled up so much that I was worried that there might be food that I dropped on the way there, so I could tell that Asilie’s words were not exaggerated at all.

“Isn’t the special treatment too much?”

“If there is someone who says that it is unfair to prevent a surprise attack by himself and create a respite for the troops to move, but only provide a full meal, shouldn’t we be suspicious of his mental state?”

After hearing the story, it is true that they take care of me generously, but the food distribution situation of those who participated in this subjugation is said to be in an unprecedentedly good condition. Even if the royal troops didn’t move massively directly, it was to give a nuance that they were definitely supporting those who went out to prevent it?

There, it was said that they were stimulating people’s psychology by giving better treatment to those who performed well, so it was not a bad method indeed.

“Rather than the enlisted soldiers brought by the nobles, adventurers and mercenaries are eating better. Ragnis also brought the family flag, but they said it was a similar situation because he had followed the lead of Lord Radnell Vandes.”

That’s why you weren’t at the meeting of nobles.

Considering that all the people sitting there were advisors belonging to the House of Nobility, Duke Lesrom might have tried his hand in advance to let things go that way.

“Come to think of it, I guess you haven’t met Ragnis?”

“Yeah, not all returned, only the injured arrived first. But there’s not much difference, so they’ll come soon.”

Well, I have a grace on my back.

I was having a meal with Asilie with the sole intention of filling my stomach in this gap, since I could get sick of eating for nothing later, and it wasn’t long before there was another commotion outside. I thought it was real this time. While I was speeding up the meal, when the crowd got closer to the tent, I put down the chicken leg I was eating and prepared to welcome the guests.

And I was slightly surprised by Ragnis’ unexpected appearance as he entered the curtain.

“Haa, I’m a little late today, asilieuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, little late today?!”

While experiencing a slight delay before he understood that she was the female warrior in a ponytail, dressed in reddish greaves and carrying a shield and spear, Ragnis let out a deep sigh and came inside, helping Yekatrina to come in comfortably from behind. When he found me late, he screamed.

“Eh, Eldmia?!”

“Hey, you’re all warriors, but Ragnis. No, you’re not a warrior, but a battle mage?”

It was so funny that I even forgot the threat from my back, so I greeted him with a smirk. And while talking to two people who were surprised and delighted that I was fine, preached that my body was fine and talked about tomorrow’s strategy, I had to be beaten twice.

“Aren’t you crazy?! You’re doing that again?!”

“Ha, it’s because it’s worth doing. It hurts so much more than that. Please stop beating me.”

Ragnis’s palms, which had grown incredibly muscular over the past few months, were on a completely different level compared to what I remember last time. Rather, with the help of the spirit, Yekatrina, who was worried about the world while being beaten so severely that she wondered if she was bruised because of him, carefully intervened in the conversation.

“Anyway, isn’t that a bit of a crazy plan…?”

Unlike his attitude, his choice of words was straightforward. But no one was there to tackle her comments. Surrounded by suspicious eyes, I explained calmly, calming down my fearful mind even though I was sure.

“Wouldn’t it be more insane to keep fighting until the end of the reinforcements run out, in a situation where they’re using the gate as they please, no matter what they do?”

Ragnis, who was covered in red personal color from head to toe, could not stand his anger and shouted with his face flushed red.

“Why are you blocking that!!”

“Everything, there’s no one else to do. I feel uncomfortable if I go on like this and damage the village I saved…” I was worried that

the shouting would continue, but to my surprise, as soon as Ragnis heard my answer, he closed his eyes tightly and caught his breath. it started.

“…Huh. Yeah, I’m in a position where I’ve been helped so much that it’s ridiculous that I’m being told not to do that now. But when I think about it from common sense, I jumped into the middle of a legion of thousands of orcs by myself, and then achieved my goal and leisurely It’s unreasonable to accept the plan to get out. Is there really no other way?”

“Oh, there isn’t one. If you jump in with at least two or three knights, you’ll come out alive unconditionally.”

“Is jumping off the premise…”

Could there be any other way to counter the anti-aircraft warfare of the Orc Shamans, who have been neglecting even the flying dragon knights for three days? It is possible to try to break through the Orc army in a wedge formation and enter from the defensive line, but it is rather more dangerous because you have to fight without rest during the round trip.

On the other hand, if I jump from the air, I can catch the angle of entry with certainty, so there is a high possibility of successfully escaping without incident, and it is not empty words that it is much safer because I am prepared and entered rather than just running recklessly.

“Am I really not doing this without thinking? I got this from the gauntlet empire, so I can use this. Even if the shaman casts offensive spells, I just need to defend myself with this. Since I’m jumping anyway, they won’t be able to attack me multiple times. And at best, getting it right just once is all it takes.”

As if to show off on purpose, when magic was injected to activate the protective shield function of the gauntlet, which had no use so far, a circular blue barrier was created on both sides of the gauntlet. If I was surprised that this was in this form, the suspicious gazes toward me would deepen, so I pretended to be calm as if I already knew, and the disbelief in the eyes of those except Ragnis faded a little.

In fact, Ragnis didn’t lose his strength in his eyes, but he felt that his spirit had died a little. Among them, he was the most skilled in magic, so it was a natural result.

“…There’s no one else who can do that, so I’m going alone.”

“That’s right. Let’s jump in together, well… Ekaterina would do well enough.”

Acrophobic civilized warrior Yekatrina flinched, but she couldn’t ask her anyway. If it was at a level that could be resisted with a fair amount of protection magic, the flying dragon knights would have been able to withstand the bombardment right away. Even if someone puts a protective spell on Ekatrina, that doesn’t guarantee safety as much as we expected.

The reason I believed in the performance of this gauntlet was that it could forcibly increase its output through pure magic. Prototypes are idiots for cost performance, but isn’t it the national rule that their performance is certain?

Even Marquis Bende of the Empire, who gave the gauntlet as a gift, and Mr. Valkun, the craftsman who inspected it, did not tackle its performance, so it should be reliable in reality.

“…Is there anything I can do to help?”

“Yeah. Switching from defense to offensive. I’ve already talked to command about that.”

When I and the flying dragon knights depart, all defense lines simultaneously attack through magic tools. With that, if the orcs’ forces can get out a little further, the process of destroying the gate will be more stable for me, and it will be easier to recognize areas with less concentration of orcs from the sky.

Listening to the story with a gloomy face, Ragnis seemed hesitant to bring up something, but eventually closed his mouth and nodded. Ekaterina, who rolled her eyes for a moment in a slightly depressed atmosphere, casually put her arms around Ragnis’ shoulders and spoke cheerfully, as if she had become very close with Ragnis during those three days.

“Well, Eldmia isn’t the kind of person who insists that she can do what she can’t do! It means that the more orcs we kill tomorrow, the more we can secure his safety, so let’s do our best to help!”

“…that’s how it should be.”

I had a chimney-like desire to ask when the hell was the end, but it wasn’t a topic I could bring up right now, so I just quietly picked it up and picked up the chicken leg again.

If I really don’t come back safely this time, I think I’ll be beaten until the skin on my back peels off.
