Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 409
Fortunately, there was nothing special about the 20 dragon troops added.
One magic bomb was not enough, so I had to throw the ax a little harder and operate the needle. It was a fairly successful battle, except for the fact that the two escaped due to lack of hands and caused collateral damage to the fallen drake corpse. I also captured a few more magic bullets.
Afterwards, I parked the flying dragon on the roof of a building near the marching unit, wondering if there was anything I could do to help, and it was Reynal Regimental Commander, who had been stabbed by me, who called me to stop me.
“The brigade commander wants to ask you a lot of questions! Go to the command post first!”
I was looking at the chewed chews, but the horse was really polite. Even so, I was not stingy in expressing my gratitude by bowing my head first, so I returned to the command post after taking an appropriate bow on top of the flying dragon.
The attack was much more successful than expected, and I judged the situation based on my previous life memories, so of course I thought that there was only one thing left to do to finish it. Thanks to this, the soldiers were surprised that the flying dragon I was riding on suddenly landed, and I was also surprised because I wondered if something else had happened.
Fortunately, through Ragnis, who ran after seeing me, I was able to quickly hear what the situation was like.
“There is a separate main unit…”
Some nuance is like a combination of mobile warfare and hammer and anvil that I know… I can’t erase the feeling that there is customization in the other world. It was to the point where I wanted to pay tribute to the kingdom that had been enduring this far while continuing the war against them.
“So you’re saying that if you don’t attack resistance quickly, you’ll get in trouble, right?”
“Umm, to be more precise, actually attacking the outer castle was a headache.”
According to Ragnis’ explanation, who gave a quick summary while the other soldiers went to pick up the brigade commander, he said that he never thought that he would be able to deal with the main force of the Demon King’s army after attacking the outer castle from the beginning.
The Eunsuri Independent Combat Team was a kind of vanguard and bait, and it would be good to enter the outer castle quickly, but if not, the troops of the cities behind us will become a hammer and will take on the role of an anvil that will stand while holding on while counterattacking the main force of the Demon King’s army. that it was At first, I wondered why Levien had not been recaptured if it was possible to occupy and end it with only these troops, but it seems that it was not all there was to see.
Anyway, thanks to blowing it up on the second day, it is now said that I started with a huge time gain, so what I did today was a bigger achievement than expected.
“If we can break through the resistance like this… I don’t know what a complete recapture would be like, but the kingdom’s offensive could continue for a while.”
According to the command’s expectations, it would take at least four days for the main army of the Demon King’s army to arrive here. It’s not that the distance is close, and it’s a level where the voice of whether this makes sense comes out naturally as they move in units of troops, but this time, it is said that the song is coming from the Demon King’s side.
As expected, I nodded, realizing that the army where strategy and tactics prevailed was not suitable for me, and then Ragnis secretly moved his gaze to the flying dragon behind me and asked.
“By the way, what the hell is that dragon? Have you prepared something like that?”
No matter how well he listened to the words, since he was a flying dragon that was captured from the enemy camp, he did not know what would happen if I was away, so the flying dragon, which created a situation where I had to go directly to the brigade commander, sat in a very, very docile posture and silently confident despite the unfamiliar environment. I was having a snowball fight with Laika, who was looking at me.
To be precise, I had a snowball fight a while ago and avoided my eyes. It was clear that he had lost, seeing as the flying dragon’s head lowered slightly and Laika’s tail waggled violently.
I thought he was strangely obedient, but is he one of the most docile among flying dragons? It was so funny that I laughed out loud.
“I came and picked it up.”
I just told the truth without hesitation, but I was hit with a stinging glare. I’m sorry!
“It’s true. They captured the demon king’s flying dragon.”
“Does that make sense? No matter how much the demons trained them, they couldn’t be this gentle.”
“He became docile on his own after hitting him with his fist a few times…”
The return gaze was cold, and I finally managed to gain Ragnis’ trust to some extent only after I said that Ranze and her battalion were witnesses.
I was a bit sad that the women around me didn’t seem to trust my words, but since Brigadier Alt appeared in the distance, I pretended to be calm and straightened my back.
“Honestly… I don’t know what to say. I have no regrets for doubting you. But after seeing these incredible results, I wonder if my insight was simply limited.”
“Who can say anything about the reasonable judgment made by the brigade commander? Rather, I am grateful that I was able to achieve this result because he gave me an opportunity without losing my trust.”
As I lowered my head in accordance with aristocratic etiquette, albeit informally, Brigadier Alt looked at me with a strange expression. It seemed as if a person who knew how to be polite like that had hit Raynal in the command post, but he immediately started managing his expression and waved his hand.
“I’m not a nobleman, so I don’t need to be polite to that point. More than that… I know you’re tired from the battle, but I’m really sorry, there are a few things I want to ask you because time is the life of the war against the demon king’s army. Can you give it to me?”
“Of course it should.”
Since I had already heard the circumstances from Ragnis, I had no reason to refuse, so I readily accepted.
“That… I have to move, but won’t there be any flying dragons?”
“Yes. You don’t have to worry anymore.”
“…now?”
It seems that our doggie got the starter right.
Laika, who understood the situation without even asking, gave a short bark.
◈
The demons, who were informed of the situation by the members of the flying dragons who ran away from Eldmia in tears of blood, fell into trouble with their eyes closed for a moment.
Magic bullets will never explode with normal impact unless they are manipulated in a certain way or there is no magical intervention that is sure enough to touch the magic and spells inside. It is the same safety device that the early form of the magic bomb that the demon army tried to explode in the interior of Etisel through the gate.
“That Eldmia is certain.”
Humans have recently become a new nuisance to the Demon King’s army. It was inevitable that they would be the same person unless they had created a unit named Little Eldmia in Etis-L and fostered strange creatures that could use magical powers.
“What’s his dynamic?”
“Since he fell to the rear after the battle, it is assumed that he will be at the command post.”
“Can we hit a roundabout on our side?”
“…I think it will be difficult.”
It’s not that we weren’t prepared for war. However, no one expected that the strong outer fortress would fall in just two days.
Of course, the war materials for the long war have been moved to the vicinity of the outer castle. Right now, even mobilizing all supplies and troops for the defense of the castle was imminent. In this situation, there was no way to bypass the Human Army and attack the command post without being noticed.
At least, if the flying dragons were intact, they could have tried it, but there were only two flying dragons left.
“Every time he shows up, he harasses us in all kinds of ways. Isn’t he actually a warrior?”
Human warriors who use magic did not exist in the history books, but since it was a situation that was considered a reasonable doubt, the demons gathered in the conference room only agreed in silence.
However, he had no intention of wasting time in such meaningless sympathy, so the demon who brought up the story and the commander-in-chief of the occupation forces in Levien stood up from his seat and gave orders to the demons.
“Prepare for a defensive battle. I will strike him.”
“Hey, Commander Iraf!”
“I won’t listen to objections. Command’s orders are orders from the Demon King. Eldmia is to be captured and killed as soon as it is discovered. I, who is in the position of division commander, can’t go against it.”
“It’s too dangerous. We’d rather…!”
Iraf, the division commander, stopped the objection by raising his hand. Although he was grateful for the loyalty of his subordinates who stopped objection like a lie, he had no intention of withdrawing because he had not reached an emotional conclusion.
“I will preserve my physical strength as much as possible to survive, and to do so, I will approach with a flying dragon. I have the highest chance of surviving and of completing the command’s orders. You can do the defensive battle without me anyway.”
Since he had risen to the position of division commander by force, there was not much he could do in the defensive battle other than lowering the drawbridge and slaughtering the enemies. Originally, the reason he remained in the city was to endure in the worst situation where even resistance was pierced or to quickly launch an offensive when an ally who played the role of a ‘hammer’ arrived, so it was most efficient to go out on his own rather than having his subordinates move.
“There is only one flying dragon.”
“There are two of them…”
“One has to send a warning to another city. How could the enemies who came in with a means to break through the outer castle in just two days came to play with a light heart?”
It will be a fight like a filial piety that announces that the war that has been stagnant will intensify. Due to the encirclement of the enemies, it was necessary to move quickly before a situation in which even the flying dragon could not fly.
“Can you ride up to two people? So I’m looking for someone to go with me. Someone who can control a flying dragon.”
Jumping on one’s own feet is much stronger than fighting while riding a flying dragon, so at the words of the division commander, who had not even learned how to ride, the 10 or so demons gathered in the meeting room raised their hands simultaneously, and Iraf laughed bitterly as he watched the scene. .
Even if I die, I think that my life was not in vain.
