Episode 235
Winds change stock
‘Anyway, where did this guy go?’
When Elric seemed to have regained some of his stamina, he quickly looked around.
Mephisto was nowhere to be seen.
I definitely saw it until I became conscious.
While dealing with Augustine and the elders, he suddenly disappeared and did not seem to appear.
‘I’m sure it didn’t go far.’
After absorbing Azazel’s magical energy, the invisible connection between Elric and Mephisto became stronger.
If you concentrate, you can even vaguely read the other person’s surface awareness.
I didn’t really want to read the Great Demon Lord’s thoughts, so I didn’t intend to focus that much, but I was able to figure out roughly where he was right away.
‘If you’re nearby, it’ll appear on its own, right?’
In any case, as long as the Magic Stone is completely bound to him, Mephisto cannot get far away.
Since I had achieved a much higher level of autonomy, I thought I might have gone for a walk somewhere to avoid people.
“Are you going to go back now?”
Then, when Sean asked a question, Elric was brought back to reality.
Elric made a dumbfounded expression.
“hey. “Don’t you know where we are now?”
“The Winds border is just around the corner.”
“And yet you still say such things?”
In response to Elric’s question, Sean crossed his arms and snorted.
“I don’t think you’ll be particularly bothered by such things anymore, right?”
Elric laughed lightly without answering.
Actually, what Sean said was correct.
Before that, I ended up becoming a duck egg floating on the river as I got further away from the imperial army headquarters.
Now that we had some strength, we didn’t have to worry about returning.
but.
“no way. Still, I’d be sad if I just passed up after coming this far.”
Sean gave Elric’s answer an expression as if he agreed.
Actually, if you think about it, it seemed like he was like that too.
The feat achieved by the Star Wars Army was currently creating a great sensation among the Imperial Army.
Even in major cities, including the Imperial Capital, several special articles covering star races and elixirs were pouring out every day.
The number of young men who were so enthusiastic about their achievements that they volunteered to enlist was increasing day by day.
The resurrection of the magic inscription.
Where else can you find gossip like this?
Even though it is causing such a big storm.
Suddenly returns?
Of course, Elric was never the type of person to do that.
Once you have grown the board, you can grow it further, and you will never let it go.
There it is.
‘The Senate was also added.’
Since the elders who account for half of the Neresta family’s strength have joined, the strength boasted by the Star Servant has already doubled.
It was clear that by now, Elric was thinking about how to use this opportunity.
-When you meet the Mervinger family head, from then on, don’t stop the senators.
-that… Can I do this?
-Are they people who will be stopped just because they are told to stop them?
-… That’s not true though.
-So, leave it alone. They are people who have been confined to their families for decades, so when they smell the outside air for the first time in a while, they are sure to be excited like a colt let go of the reins. and.
-… ?
-I also want to check it for myself.
-What do you mean?
-How will the world react after the Senate is fully revealed?
Gai, the head of the family, seemed to have already guessed everything, and even issued an order that he would no longer need to be involved in the Senate.
That’s why Sean was curious.
As Guy said, how will the world react?
‘I had so many accidents on the way here anyway. There won’t be any place you don’t know.’
From now on, I’ll just take a step back and look around.
Sean thought so.
“Then now, slowly.”
Elric slowly stood up.
“Shall we start fishing?”
“What fishing?”
Sean looked at Elric with an expression as if he was saying something like this.
Elric showed a mischievous smile that he had always seen at the Academy.
“What kind of fishing? “A place to catch red lions.”
“… !”

The original castle, ‘Red Castle’.
Bastard Sword, Tedan.
An entity that boasts absolute victory through the claws and teeth that the Red Lion boasts.
Then he slowly opened his closed eyes.
“few?”
“Already under siege… “We are starting to have it.”
Enemy.
In the Red Lion Family, the word ‘enemy’ is usually used to refer to the empire that pushed them into such a corner.
For Tedan and his subordinates, who were protecting the nature of the Winds Frontier Province, the object of reference was slightly different.
A group of stars.
These are the guys who are currently wandering around the Winds border area as if it were their own home.
A lot of time has passed since I heard the news that ‘Claymore’ Sagnad had died and rushed to the border.
Meanwhile, Tedan stayed in the castle with his troops and never moved no matter what commotion happened outside.
Even when a starry group suddenly disappeared.
Even when they appeared after half a year and took over the Akran Fortress.
For the past month, I’ve been wandering around the border provinces and trying to cut off the supply network heading to the Red Lion Army.
Although reinforcements were dispatched each time to drive them out, there was never a large-scale operation to eradicate them.
Because of this, there was a lot of dissatisfaction among the officers within the military camp.
Still, Tedan gave strict orders not to act rashly and punished those who were agitated separately.
This was all because I knew full well what the star sect was aiming for.
‘It is certainly. There are excellent strategists among the star sects. I don’t know exactly who it is, but if you get caught up in it, even the troops here will be destroyed.’
The reason why the Red Lion urgently sent Tedan here was simple.
This was because he was the most intelligent among the four retainers.
Only by protecting the homeland from Mervinger’s demons will we be able to somehow secure victory in this war with the imperial army.
Therefore, in Tedan’s view, he could not disparage the Star Jonggun as simply a guerrilla army like other officers under his command.
The Star Wars already possessed powerful units called the Bile Family and Black Skull, and were also equipped with excellent mobility capabilities. All of the strategies presented so far were all excellent.
In the meantime, if you move carelessly, you will really fall into the trap they set for you.
It would be like pushing your body directly into the mouth of a tiger.
so that.
Tedan was waiting.
May the starry group find a gap.
May they walk into a battlefield that is advantageous to them.
and.
The time you’ve been waiting for has come.
Isn’t it said that the Star Wars army surrounded the main capital of the Winds Territory in order to completely capture it?
“What are their strengths?”
“It’s exactly as we captured it before. The headquarters of the Star Army led by Elric Mervinger, the Blue Lion’s Vile family, and the Company’s Black Skull are stationed there. and… “Something special has been added.”
“Do you mean the Senate of the House of Neresta?”
“yes. That’s right.”
“hmm… !”
Tedan let out a sigh.
If a siege were to break out, he was sure to be confident of defeating the Star Wars.
I knew that there were a lot of prominent people over there, including Elric, the blue lion Herman, and the company sailor.
Still, it was his belief that war was not simply determined by the level of military power of superhumans.
But the Neresta Senate was a different story.
It is also known that it accounts for half of the Neresta family’s power.
Of course, I didn’t really believe such nonsense, but I also knew that it wasn’t a place that could be ignored.
In fact, Tedan was well aware of the uproar caused by the Senate running in a straight line from the imperial headquarters to this border province.
If they use magic bombing… At that time, I couldn’t help but have a real headache.
but.
‘Let’s hold on.’
Tedan forced himself to control his shaking heart.
‘There’s nothing else I can do right now.’
No matter how talented the starry tribes are with flying and crawling, there will inevitably be a limit to their military provisions.
Moreover, the Red Castle is a fortress among fortresses.
There was a belief that it would never be easily taken over.
‘And after that… ‘Ghost’, when he moves, everything ends.
What if he, who is simply called a ghost within the Red Lion Army, steps forward? If he, who is also the master’s friend, steps forward. There will be absolutely no danger.
This is the one who shook up the border guards to the fullest, chilling the 4th prince’s temper, and even cut off the heads of the heads of the families of Bant and Papen, the auditors, on the battlefield.
He was also here now.
Even if Elric Mervinger had the ability to fly and crawl, his head would inevitably fall to the floor.
Considering the limitation of the Star Wars army being composed entirely of a young hero named Elric Mervinger, there was a good chance of victory.
Right then.
Slam!
The door to the office was wide open.
“Commander.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“The enemy has begun to move.”
“already?”
Tedan stood up, moving much faster than expected.
“Where are you?”
“This is a preface.”
“… This is where the barrier device is installed. Maybe it’s because there are a lot of wizards, but I read it well. “I ask the people of the territory to never be agitated.”
“But there is a problem.”
Tedan was about to leave the office, but tilted his head at the words of the subordinate who had reported.
“problem?”
“yes. That is… “Only the elders of the Neresta family went to the front, without any other soldiers.”
“what?”
For a moment, Tedan’s expression hardened.
Intuitively, I felt something cooling my stomach.
Of all the star species that have been identified so far, only those who remain unknown have stepped forward?
What on earth should we think about that?
Tedan hurriedly ran to the west gate with his subordinates.
Under the castle.
In the distance, I could see dozens of elderly people gathered together.
However, they showed such a relaxed appearance that one wondered if they were really people who had gone to the battlefield together.
No, it was more than leisure, it was closer to boredom.
Some yawned and some even dug into their ear holes with their ring fingers as if they were dying of annoyance.
Then, the person who appeared to be the leader stepped forward.
‘The author is Augustine… !’
Lord André Winds spoke clearly when he sent himself here.
I don’t know about other people, but if Elric Mervinger’s teacher, Augustin Neresta, steps forward, I have to be very nervous.
Even if he is not well known to the public, he must be on guard.
And then call it
‘monster… water.’
Centered around Augustine, white steam began to rise.
Even though it was a considerable distance from here, I felt strangely out of breath.
Tedan quickly looked back at the subordinate next to him.
“Call the ghost, right away!”
Wizard who swallowed talent
