94 Rebirth (2)
Frondier cleared his throat once and then spoke again.
Of course, I didn’t forget to smile.
“Did you sleep well, Elysia? “I think I have a cold.”
“Are you a psychopath?!”
But as expected, the answer that came back was merciless.
Elysia huffed with a red face.
Frontier tilted his head.
“are you okay? My face is red. “It looks like you still have a fever.”
“I thought it was because of the heat!!”
Whick!
puck.
Elysia threw the pillow and it hit Frondier in the face. Perhaps because the pillow was quite soft, it stuck to Frondier’s face even after it hit him.
Elysia shouted at Frondier, who had become a pillow person.
“hey! It’s because of you that I caught a cold in the first place! Who made people rain? “Cluck!”
Tuk.
Frondier received a pillow that slowly slid down on his face.
Then he asked.
“…I go?”
“Then who are you?”
“That’s because you ran away in the first place. I didn’t kick you out of the house, you went out on your own and ran around in the rain. “That’s what we call self-employment.”
“Are you self-employed? Jaup kolok jaduuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu For me?
Elysia’s eyes glowed blue. It wasn’t a metaphor, it was actually like that. It was a manifestation of mana.
However, no matter how angry I was, I couldn’t use magic. Just because Frontier received the pillow doesn’t mean it will receive magic.
Instead, Elysia shouted loudly.
“If people open the window where they sleep and a gunman comes in, then who can stay still there?”
“We are strangers and we know each other. Besides, I was the one who saved you. “I can’t say thank you.”
“A thank you note?”
Elysia was dumbfounded and asked back.
The position that saved you? when? Did Frontier ever save me?
“I saved you from almost being killed by demons. “If you had stayed there, all your blood would have been sucked out and you would have died.”
“okay! But one of them suddenly dies and another suddenly kneels before you! “In such a situation, how can I think of you as being on the same side!”
At those words, Frondier nodded and put his hand to his mouth.
I thought I had even seen the death of the demon Kagris. But you even saw that Bart was subjugated. Elysia had been there longer than Frondier thought.
Frondier seemed to think for a moment while putting his hand to his mouth and then spoke.
“…Did you see it?”
“Heyyyy! You get out! You’re scared! “Are you really a psychopath?”
“It’s a joke. Anyway, I have no intention of harming you. If I was going to do that, I would have done it the night you passed out. “Why would I bring you to this inn and ask you to take care of me?”
At those words, Elysia rolled her eyes for a moment and then pulled the blanket over her. Frondier seemed dissatisfied with the hugging form, so he handed over the pillow he had been given.
Elysia snatched the pillow and pulled it into her arms.
“…so? “What is the purpose?”
Elysia is finally ready to listen to the story. Frondier nodded and briefly explained the situation so far.
A three-way war between demons from each faction. That the threat is approaching.
“…devil? “Are you saying there’s going to be a war?”
“that’s right. “In the human realm.”
Elysia opened her mouth. It was a difficult story for her to accept. Except for the demon she met just before, Elysia had never seen a demon before.
However, there are actually a significant number of demons hiding in the empire, and their war is just around the corner.
“Are you sure about that?”
“The demons from the west have already attacked here in droves once. Although Elodie and I blocked it. Satan’s demons may be nothing more than a possibility, but the Devil of the West is a definite threat. “It is also a very close threat.”
So, Frondier reported the situation to Elodia Lili after the demon from the west attacked.
Of course, they already knew that their second and third attacks were predicted without having to be told.
The same goes for Arald, Hitchcock’s chairman. We will be able to detect the demon attack much more in advance than the last incident.
“…I understand the story, but what should I do?”
Elysia said with a slightly anxious face. As the scale was more unusual than expected, it was difficult for her to guess why Frontier had come to her.
She is not as powerful as other wizards. She is far behind Aten in terms of combat magic.
“Elysia’s alchemy was your specialty. “And the magic that applies it.”
“…Well, but I don’t think it can be used in war.”
Elysia slowly began to worry about Frondier’s words. Isn’t it being too romantic since Frontier doesn’t know about alchemy? I’m scared that they’ll say something like asking me to exchange wood for metal.
Alchemy in this era is one of the major branches of magic. Extracting and combining ‘parts’ with magical effects from materials obtained from animals, plants, metals, monsters, etc.
Therefore, the material itself cannot be transformed into a completely different material. It is also a boring question for Elysia.
“What I’m interested in is the magic you used.”
But Frontier told a different story.
“Magic?”
“okay. “Rafflesia.”
Rafflesia. Elysia’s expression darkened after hearing those words.
This is a magic that Elysia installed in Constel some time ago to induce a monster attack. A huge magic circle that lures monsters.
Of course, it is a bad memory for Elysia. That may be the case for anyone.
“Why is that? “I’m not going to use it anymore, so there’s no need to worry.”
Elysia’s tone naturally became blunt. Frondier said to him:
“That’s troublesome. “Because I want you to use it.”
“…Rafflesia?”
“okay. “It’s a magic circle that tempts you, right?”
Elysia blinked at those words and then opened her mouth wide.
“…No way. “The devil?”
“answer.”
Frontier laughed.
Elysia said in confusion.
“That doesn’t work on demons. “It’s a magic that can only be used against monsters!”
“Low-level demons are actually no different from monsters. “This is something the high-ranking devil himself told me.”
“You’re not saying that’s just what you say, are you?”
“Even so, there is point in trying. War is ultimately a gang fight between many people. In other words, if there are not enough numbers, there will be no war. “No matter how powerful an individual is, if the number of enemies is small, the fight is small and ends quietly.”
To put it simply and ignorantly, war is a gang fight. Not all wars have grand reasons.
It’s just that 100,000 people band together and fight for a reason that only brings children into the fight. In other words, if there is a shortage of numbers, regardless of reason or justification, it is not a war.
“Satan left powerful high-ranking demons on this earth. “It is easy to hide among humans, and their power will overwhelm most humans.”
Frontier predicts that the demons that Satan has planted in the empire will be much stronger than the demons currently hiding within the empire. Probably similar to Mizonas who fought with his older brother Ajie.
However, war is not fought by individuals.
“War is created by the majority. “If you want to wreak havoc on the empire, you have to let the dogs loose.”
In the end, the biggest weight in this war is held by the devils of the West. They have a cause, an opportunity, and a signal to start a war.
However, if only we could lead the majority of low-level demons among them to a completely different place.
“If the dogs start disobeying, which one will be the one to be the one? “I’m curious about that.”

Currently, the Empire’s work is divided into two major categories.
One is reconstruction. It is to repair the damage caused by war.
Compared to the hopeless situation, the damage was only minor, but that’s true when compared to the entire empire, and the absolute number of dead and injured was by no means small.
It is busy recovering from damage within the empire, such as transporting and recovering corpses and contacting bereaved families, but it is of course the defense system that is spending the most resources right now.
Even though Frontier used restoration, most of the barriers suffered significant damage from the bloody battle with the monsters.
In other words, if Frontier had not used restoration, some of the walls would have undoubtedly fallen.
And another task is to advance to the collapsed Cape Bay.
Originally, the empire had built a wall to protect the inside from the monsters outside.
However, despite having no defenses, Mangot has survived for such a long time and has even developed the power to wage war against the empire. The reason is the natural topography of Mangot.
Because it is at the end of the sea, there is no possibility of monsters invading from one direction, and from the other direction, monsters are unlikely to approach due to the lack of resources on the land.
Of course, resources are scarce from a human standpoint, but Mangot can go hunting and gathering when and how they want.
Of course, there may have been a lot of sacrifices in the process, but thanks to those sacrifices, they have now gained considerable knowledge about the monsters outside.
The empire now has the opportunity to gain knowledge about the relatively safe area of Mangot and the monsters outside.
If we can build a road that stretches from the empire to Mangot, we will have an opportunity to rewrite the history of humans, whose territory has been endlessly shrinking.
However, that is an idealistic story, and
“…are you saying it is still a standing order?”
For those who actually try to do it, it is nothing more than a ‘continuation’ of the war.
Expansion of territory to Cape Bay. There are two knightly orders that move to do this.
The Knights of the Shroud and the Knights of Roach. They are the two most reliable pillars of the empire.
However, that is the Empire’s position, and the two knights are very uncomfortable with each other. This is because citizens have already felt the gap between the two knights, knowingly or unknowingly.
The Shroud Knights, who are hidden within the empire and are declining day by day, and the Roach Knights, who still firmly guard the defenses on the northern front lines. It is clear which side to take.
Of course, that doesn’t mean the Shroud Knights have nothing to say. It is the imperial palace that called them, and although they do relatively safe work, it does not mean that they are poor at performing their duties.
Are you getting criticized just for not protecting the wall? So does this mean that the Knights should all head towards the wall on their own feet and go to their deaths?
──Assume that the Knights of Roach did not have a matriarch Ampere. They will all be expelled into the empire in a huff.
Eventually, this sound started to spread. I don’t know if this is something the Shroud Knights brought up.
This may be the greatest protest the Shroud Knights could make, but it was something that scratched the pride of the Roach Knights.
Even though the war was resolved, the gap between the two knights was not resolved.
And as of now.
The biggest disagreement that had ever occurred between the respective knight commanders, Sanders and Sylvain, occurred.
“How long do you mean we have to wait? “In this place where there are no barriers, the knights are already stretched to their limits due to fatigue and stress.”
Sanders said. Although Sylvaine is an old friend, since it was a conference room, the tone was polite and stiff.
And even if this wasn’t a conference room, there would still be disagreements with Sylvain right now.
Sylvain said with his arms crossed.
“It’s an order. “This is when patience is needed.”
“…It’s been over a week since we arrived here. “No matter how things have been handled so far, we don’t know when the monsters from outside will target this place and attack us.”
In fact, the two knights had already arrived at Mangot.
It was not only Mangot that suffered great damage in the war, but also monsters. Because the timely general offensive ended in failure. It was natural for them to be intelligent and hide.
Taking advantage of that opportunity, the knights surprisingly arrived at Cape Bay safely, but the problem came later.
“Temporary barriers do not last long. If we really want to do a proper investigation, we need to call in more troops. Otherwise, it would be right for us to retreat as well. “It would be unreasonable for the knights to continue staying here.”
“The next order will be issued soon, so just wait a moment.”
“It’s not an order from His Majesty the Emperor! That damn devil or something! “I’m not even sure!”
Sanders shouted, unable to control his passion. Sylvain, who had remained calm the entire time, glared at Sanders.
Sanders said.
“…Where is the Roach matriarch now? “Matriarch, from whom did you receive information and give this order?”
“Director Sanders.”
“I need to see you now.”
“Sanders! Calm down. The time limit has already been determined.”
“I can’t let my knights die!!”
Sanders shouted and walked out of the room.
