I Don’t Need a Guillotine for My Revolution - Chapter 79

Episode 79 Governor’s Government – What was a Hidden Card

The next morning.

I got out of bed and was warming up.

I don’t know what method they used, but I was quite concerned about the succubus hiding in my dream, but despite that, I didn’t feel very tired.

The succubus that I thought was Gremory or that I had just tasted it.

When I remembered what that taste was, I immediately blocked the thought.

From the morning breeze….

“Excuse me, Marquis!”

While I was thinking like that, someone came into the tent and I almost flinched, but the person who entered was smiling like always.

“Shandra, what’s going on?”

“I received a letter from the Marquis that was received by Dilus’ delegation.”

“Oh, thank you.”

“Haha, then I’ll go back.”

For some reason, Shandra smiled and quickly walked away, and I only found out the reason after looking at the letter I had been handed.

The letter is stamped with the coat of arms of Aquitaine and sealed with a magic seal.

When Shandra was staying at Lumiere, she very bluntly asked me if it was true that I was so angry at Christine’s injury that I killed the people who instigated it…

Seeing that it was sealed with magical power, it must have been important.

While holding the letter Christine sent, I secretly tried to use my magic power.

There is no sign of the world shaking at all, only the sensation of magical power circling within the body.

Also, I don’t think it was the work of a damn succubus.

I never thought I would end up being suspicious of the letters I received from Christine throughout my life… When

I injected myself with magic power and opened the seal, I found news from the capital that she had sent.

A list of additional people who joined the Central Party and brief information. A report on the current state of politics, including the news that Talleyrand successfully brought the Revolutionary Party, which was in turmoil due to the death of Isidor, in order.

Information that the Aquitaine Merchant Marine has become an important axis in training the Republic Navy by taking over the facilities of the Abyss Corporation’s Francia branch and the shipbuilding facilities of the former Duchy of Brittany, which was comparable to Aquitaine.

The domestic situation began to change as grains that had no suitable business partners began to be exported, and several circumstances showing that the Germanian Empire was preparing for war were captured.

Christine thoroughly classified and organized each item into a report that thoroughly informed me about the changes in domestic and international situations while I was in Iberica.

I checked the long reports and turned to the last page.

[The saint said she was having a cool summer thanks to the artifact you gave her and asked me to thank her.

I heard that summers on the Iberica Peninsula are very hot, but I don’t know what about you. Since it is you, I believe you are doing what is necessary.

Still, I feel a little empty, so I hope you come back soon.

Yours, Christine.]

I quietly kissed the last page.

It was very Christine-like that she wrote on different letterheads what she had to incinerate as it was confidential and what she wanted me to keep.

I also want to go back quickly and meet her.

And…

I remembered Christine’s face looking up at me with dreamy eyes.

Oh damn succubus.

How can I see Christine’s face….

Crocs’s army moved to a vast hilly area, encountered the enemy, and formed a camp to confront them.

I want to return to Lumiere right away, but the Abyss Corporation is openly selling weapons to the Germanian Empire, and that empire is preparing for war, targeting Franzia.

Eris is insurance to block their cause, but if the difference in power is too obvious, we cannot ignore the possibility of them pushing in without justification or anything, so if we want to return, we need to make sure the situation on the Iberica Peninsula is at ease to some extent.

As a result of the envoy’s investigation, it was proven that their mine was quite profitable, and the mithril they mined was a very useful metal for dwarves, although it could not be handled by human or orc technology.

More than anything, I’m very concerned about Paimon’s comment, which I don’t know what he’s thinking.

They must have known Crocs’s strength, but they were quite confident. There is definitely something there.

At the strategy meeting I attended with that in mind, I was looking at a painting I had never seen before.

“What is this?”

In response to my question, Crocs touched his chin with his hand and asked.

“Don’t you know?”

“This is my first time seeing you.”

If you look at its shape, it looks like a spear with a slightly thick end at the end of a long pole, but no matter how you look at it, it’s not a blade.

“Are you sure you drew it correctly?”

When Shandra relayed my question, Austel, the fifth confidant of Crocs, a leopard-faced beast, furrowed his brows and answered bluntly.

“I drew what I saw in as much detail as possible, and the soldier who drew this is said to have good drawing skills.”

“hmm.”

I listened to Shandra’s interpretation and tilted my head.

What we are seeing are the enemy weapons observed by the beastman scouts. The problem is that I have no idea what that thing does.

“It appears to be a new weapon made by the Abyss Corporation.”

I know there’s a new weapon, but I don’t know what it’s used for, so how do I deal with it?

No matter how good the scouting team is, at best they can only see the form…

“What do you think?”

Crocs asked, touching his fangs with his hand.

Crocs was very exciting when we left here, but he is cautious, perhaps because he took my warning seriously.

I definitely appreciate this.

It’s clear that the Abyss Corporation has prepared something, but if you fight recklessly and see blood, it’s a big deal.

“Honestly, I don’t know what it is…”

Still, there is one truth that is certain throughout history.

“Anyway, as long as it’s an enemy weapon, you can just destroy it.”

Late night.

I moved in the shadows with a group of people.

There’s no way they’re the only ones doing night raids, right?

No, on the contrary, the party carrying out the operation to induce confusion and attack as expected had to take a considerable risk…

There are less than 100 of us who are currently moving in hiding in the hills and darkness.

With numbers like this, they won’t be easily detected.

By the way…

I was quite impressed by the sight of the beastmen using their own magic power and moving ahead quickly.

They said that the beastmen were excellent scouts, but that wasn’t just empty talk.

Not only are they fast, but their eyes glow even in the dark, and they move as naturally as in broad daylight.

Gaston and Gaston came out behind the beasts ahead of them…

“But is it okay for the king to embark on a strategy like this?”

“My brother, the head of the foreign mission, is going, and you’re telling me to stand guard alone?”

Crocs, who was following the beastmen with us, smiled and answered.

This bold brother must have been aware that he was dragging a representative of a foreign delegation to the battlefield…

“Because the Marquis also insisted on participating in person. “It’s good for me to participate in the same operation as Sir Gaston.”

Shandra smiled, showing her white teeth in the dark, and Gaston cleared his throat.

What should I do with this? Unfortunately for that cheerful pagan warrior, Gaston doesn’t seem to be able to get used to her…

“Because it’s a plan I designed myself.”

I answered simply.

There may be a gas tank, and there is a thought that my body can be saved, and above all, if the operation that I, a stranger, insisted on and attempted, fails without me, the problem becomes bigger.

Regardless of whether Crocs trusts me, this is an important part for me as I am here for the sake of the relationship between our two countries.

Austel, the leopard beast that was ahead, raised his clenched hand and everyone stopped, lowering their posture.

As Crocs and I quickly stepped forward, we saw the enemy’s camp beyond the hill.

I can clearly see the people who have lit a bonfire and are keeping watch.

The picture drawn by the scouts before they arrived showed a map that roughly depicted the structure of the enemy camp and the location of what appeared to be the new weapon.

I memorized it in a hurry, but I wonder if I can find it accurately in this dark night.

When I turned my head, Crocs nodded.

Accordingly, I took out the bow on my back and strung it, and several of the scouts followed suit.

The prisoners and I quickly pointed at each of our watchdogs and pulled out arrows at the same time to pull the strings.

Ping –

As I let go of the string, I heard a series of sounds cutting through the air, and arrows flew in the dark night sky.

The enemy soldiers guarding our side are hit by arrows one after another and fall without even screaming.

As soon as everyone saw it, they started running.

The feathers we wear in our headbands shake as we move in the dark.

A mark to identify allies even in the dark. This means that it is okay to cut down all those without feathers.

As I ran hard, I saw a vicious smile spread across Crocs’ mouth.

Anyway, I heard the king likes to go on a rampage.

The moment we got close to the enemy’s position, a commotion began.

I think there was someone who saw the corpse of the person who attacked us.

The beastmen ran on all fours and quickly rushed towards the enemy camp, and I also drew my sword.

With Gaston and Shandra following behind me with their swords drawn, Crocs, who was running with a thumping sound, bent his knees and flew up like that.

Not crazy?

Crossing the night sky, Crocs fell directly into the enemy camp and swung his ax at the tent right next to it.

The tent was hit by a brute force and split in two, spewing out the blood of anyone unfortunate enough to be inside.

“Al-ardho!”

Crocs, who split the tent in two, roared –

“Akbar!”

Crocs’ spear was picked up by his men who were jumping into the enemy camp after him, and the quiet enemy camp quickly fell into chaos.

I rushed forward and blew off the head of the orc who had just come out of the tent and was in a panic.

“Ha, this is how night raids work!”

Immediately after, he plunged his dagger between the eyes of the human who crawled out of the tent next to him, and Gaston swung his great sword with all his might and cut the huge orc in half.

I looked around to see Shandra jumping into the air and slashing a dagger into the top of another Orc’s head.

I think this direction is right.

In the distance, Crocs was seen swinging his huge ax like a gale, crushing everything in sight while making a destructive roar.

In the meantime, a human came out of the tent and was scared when he saw me, so he tried to run to the other side, but-

“Kwaaaa!”

The prisoner, who was running on all four legs, jumped up, bit the back of the neck and shook it frantically, causing the sound of flesh being torn and blood splattering as he fell to the floor.

“Krrrrr….”

The prisoner, Ostel, glanced at me with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, then immediately turned his head and began looking for his next victim.

Even though we’re allies, I’m scared?

As I looked around, the enemy camp had reached the point of destruction.

The enemies are completely panicked in the darkness where they cannot distinguish between enemies and allies, and the feathered allies are showing off their brutality and bravery, destroying everything in sight.

I stopped needlessly cutting down enemies and started running, carefully reviewing the map I had memorized in my head.

Damn, I’m really confused because all the tents look similar. A tent large enough to store weapons…

“[email protected]#!#”

A large tent guarded by three well-armed soldiers. found!

I plunged the dagger between the eyes of the soldier who pointed at me and shouted something and jumped in.

An orc much taller than me swings a sword.

When I raised my sword at an angle and let it go, the orc’s eyes widened as I got closer in an instant – I plunged the dagger from my waist into the orc’s neck and twisted it out.

The orc, who was bleeding and making a leaking sound, slowly collapses, and the other one starts to run away screaming.

I immediately threw down the dagger that had just killed the orc, hit it in the back of the fleeing guy’s head, and closed the entrance to the tent.

there is.

There are a bunch of long poles with something thick covered in what looks like cloth or leather.

What does it say in Abyss Corporation text?

Ro… Rocket?

“Your Excellency the Marquis!”

“Bring some fire from the campfire near the gas cylinder.”

“As ordered!”

I don’t know what it is, but it’s made of cloth or leather on a wooden pole, so it would burn.

The gas cylinder came with a fairly nice torch, no matter where it was obtained.

“I brought it!”

“Good job Gaston. “Tell them to find King Crocs and prepare to withdraw.”

“ancient!”

After confirming that the gas cylinder was far away, I threw the torch at the R things that were piled up.

The fire spreads quickly and catches easily.

“hmm. “For an Abyss Corporation product, there’s nothing special about it.”

The moment I thought that,

I heard a strange sound.

uh?

The R rocket that was at the spot where I first threw the torch flew off the pole and broke through the tent.

Uh…huh?

Soon, there was an explosion and sparks flew from a distance.

I turned my gaze trembling and saw the other rockets catching fire, so I immediately turned back and started running.

Holy crazy!

As I was running frantically, Crocs came closer with a familiar thumping sound.

“Hahaha brother! “You succeeded?”

“Crocs, run, run!” “Tell everyone to run away!”

“what?”

Immediately after, a loud explosion occurred on the other side of us with a loud noise, and nearby tents were engulfed in flames.

“Brother, what on earth did you do?”

“I don’t know either! Anyway, run! “Because it’s full of things like that!”

When I saw Crocs immediately puff out his chest muscles and take a deep breath, I immediately covered my ears and-

“Tarajue-!”

Even though I covered my ears, the sound was so loud that I could hear it even inside, shaking the entire camp.

If you do this, it will all start to fall off on its own.

The moment I thought that.

Piyuuuung-

“What the fuck!”

The roar of that strange rocket flying is close.

I reflexively wrapped my entire body in magic, and the rocket that passed by us hit the tent a little ahead, causing an explosion.

“Aaaah!”

Countless fragments and embers scatter and hit Crocs’ magical barrier.

I swallowed dryly as I looked at the dangerously shaking magical barrier.

“Oh this is hot!”

“If that had fallen on your brothers’ heads, you wouldn’t have said that!”

“Hahaha, I see!”

Even while we were running like crazy, strange roaring noises came from behind without stopping, and there were even bursts of loud noises in between.

The same phenomenon is even happening not only where I first started the fire, but also on the other side.

Paimon How much of that crazy thing has he got!

“O king!”

“Your Excellency the Marquis!”

Fortunately, the surprise attack was successful, and the personnel who escaped from the base and joined did not seem to have changed much from when they arrived.

Your skills are amazing.

“Haha, everyone is safe. “Enough is enough, let’s go back!”

And at that moment, along with a huge explosion, a huge pillar of fire rose up from one side of the enemy lines.

As I was staring blankly at the burning enemy lines, Shandra came closer and opened her mouth.

“It is indeed a tactic close to the Marquis de Lafayette’s magic. “It’s scary to think that this number of people could completely destroy the enemy’s camp at once.”

Shandra’s eyes were full of respect, and so did the others, but unfortunately, the answer that came out of my mouth was this.

“…I’m a little scared too? What is that?”

What on earth were these crazy demons trying to do…
