‘If you want to promote it, you have to do it clearly, Am.’
At that screening(?), all the nobles saw it clearly.
The fearsome force of the dwarves, orcs, and elves, and the five auras that surged from all over the battlefield. Leffenhardt even did not forget to zoom in on the moment when Cardamite and Tetzwald decided the game. The moment the head of the Crovence Kingdom’s strongest knight was cut off was vividly enlarged and replayed, so it was no wonder that the nobles who saw it were terrified.
“by the way… … .”
Suddenly, Yubel glanced at the building where the different races were staying and spoke.
“It is good to be intoxicated with the glory of victory, but if a battle of this magnitude were to be fought with that number, the damage they would have suffered would have been significant. “How’s the damage?”
“Seventeen dwarf warriors and nine orc warriors are dead. Fortunately, the elves were not harmed, but even so, they were all seriously injured. “If you were to ask me how many people were injured, I would have to say that they are all injured.”
Even so, the Redanti priests belonging to Prince Silan and Yubel’s army were sweating profusely and healing the injured members of other races. Because the battle was so harsh, many people suffered injuries that they could not fully recover from. Without Silan, who possessed tremendous divine power, there was a high possibility that the number of deaths would have increased.
‘Ah, I think deciding to take her with me was the best thing I’ve ever done in my life.’
At that time, Yubel made a bitter expression.
“Huh, I don’t know if I should say it’s minor compared to the number of enemies, but considering their numbers, it’s really quite a big loss.”
Repenhardt burst out in admiration as he watched Yubel lamenting earnestly.
‘uh? ‘This guy was a much more proper prince than I thought, wasn’t he?’
An ordinary prince would not have cared at all when he saw this level of damage. However, it was not simply because he was weak-hearted and did not care about even a single life. Yubel accurately understood the strength of the different races, and felt sad as if he had lost famous knights.
‘Honestly, I felt a bit sorry for pushing this guy instead of Karsas… … .’
Originally, in his previous life, Karsas became a king and became a famous military officer and ruled the Kingdom of Crovence. After he became king, the Kingdom of Crovence became wealthy and the people lived a peaceful and wealthy life, and voices praising him were truly loud.
In fact, Reppenhardt’s conscience was pricked a lot as he tried to oust Karsas and install the libertine Prince Yubel as king instead. But looking at Yubel now, he felt that if he didn’t love Phinea, there would be no reason for him to receive such gossip. Yubel was also clear-headed, quick to judge, and possessed a personality that did not turn a blind eye to reality due to the arrogance of a prince.
‘Well, if both are qualified to be kings, then it is right to push for the person with the right taste.’
Reppenhardt lowered his head with a more relieved expression.
“Then, Prince Yubel, I will leave alone. “I have a lot of work to do.”
“Oh, I see. “I’ve kept this tired person for too long. Please go and get some rest.”
The only thing Reppenhardt did throughout the battle was commentating and recording the battlefield. What is fatigue? With a bitter smile, he came down from the castle wall.
☆ ☆ ☆
The attitude of the nobles clearly changed. Already, Reppenhardt kindly played the video, and all the scenes were consistent with the reports of his subordinates, so how could one not believe it?
Although there were differences from person to person, at least among Prince Yubel’s army, there were no longer people who called other races incompetent.
The only problem is… … .
‘And yet, there are still some nonsense like this.’
Repenhardt sighed inwardly as he looked at the thin-looking man in front of him, Viscount Damon. He was rubbing his hands together and speaking in a soft voice.
“Our family’s wealth is truly considerable. “No matter what price you ask, we can afford it.”
Currently, Viscount Damon was suggesting that Dwarf Auror users such as Cardamite and Maloid be sold to him. Even after seeing the amazing majesty of different races, they are still unable to escape their stereotypes. It wasn’t that they were great, but it seemed that Reppenhardt had used his miraculous skills to manipulate them into giving them such power.
“You are mistaken, but they are not slaves. They are our proud allies. “I’ve told you this many times before, right?”
“Huh, you’re refusing as expected. Well, even if it were me, I wouldn’t want to exchange people like that for money… … .”
I explained it repeatedly, but Viscount Damon still didn’t understand and thought it was a pity for Leffenhardt. Leppenhardt sighed as he finished his conversation with Viscount Daemon on good words.
‘Oh, my temperament makes me want to hit him and silence him, but I can’t.’
Currently, Repenhardt was busy meeting with Yubel’s nobles. Now that the power of these races has been shown, the next step is to strengthen relationships with humans to reduce the number of back-stabs as much as possible.
The attitude of most nobles was similar to that of Viscount Damon in front of us. Although they praised Reppenhardt’s skills, few people truly recognized the different races. Among them, when I said they were free, there were some who took that to mean that they were wild, and secretly attempted to capture and tame the warriors of the Danheim clan and the Blue Bear tribe. Of course, this was something that Reppenhardt had predicted as well, so he prepared for it in advance, and it ended in a disaster for everyone.
However, there were nobles among them who felt something was different.
In the corridor inside the Sinai Fortress, two middle-aged men were walking together. They were Baron Haron and Baron Galin. These two people were merchant-turned-nobles belonging to the Peonin merchant family, and unlike other nobles, they were still among the most enlightened.
“If he interacted with them, there’s nothing we can’t do, right?”
“But at best, what kind of interaction can you have with slaves…” … .”
“Even if it is the same vessel, there are crude objects that are used as bedpans, while there are also pottery worth a thousand gold pieces created by the hands of a master craftsman.”
“That’s right. “I still don’t understand that slave races can do that, but that doesn’t mean I can ignore the reality that is unfolding before my eyes.”
“For now, let’s wait and see. In any case, the force they showed clearly happened in reality.”
“I guess so.”
The two people withheld judgment and headed to their lodgings. As the two’s footsteps disappeared across the hallway, a huge shadow slowly appeared in the darkness on the other side. It was Reppenhardt who was performing detection magic to gauge the nobles’ reactions.
“Still, I didn’t do anything in vain. Fortunately, there are some people who are deaf to words.”
The war has just begun.
The activities of these races also began from now on.
From now on, humans will also fight shoulder to shoulder with them. And we will stand on the same side and swing the sword with other races.
“If that happens, my dream will also go one step further.”
☆ ☆ ☆
The royal capital, Crotin, was enveloped in a chaotic atmosphere. It was because of the news that the Sinai Fortress, the strong shield protecting the royal capital and the protective gateway to Crotin, had fallen. Both the citizens working for a living and the soldiers protecting the capital were all afraid and talking about the rumors.
“I can’t believe it. “If you were Lord Tetzwald, wasn’t he an Auror with unrivaled abilities anywhere on the continent?”
“But the one who cut down Sir Tetzwald was a dwarf?”
“That’s nonsense!”
“But didn’t the Sinai fortress actually fall?”
Most of the citizens of the royal capital supported Prince Karsas. Prince Karsas, who was a famous knight, had a brilliant mind, and was famous for his fair-minded attitude, was much more popular than Prince Yubel, a libertine. In the evening, voices of concern about the future were heard in bars all over the capital.
“Is it real? “Why are people like orcs so scary?”
“I don’t know, aren’t the Orcs who appear as gladiators violent?”
“but… … .”
The men who were drinking and talking in the bar’s hall suddenly turned to the side. A shabby-looking orc was passing by them, carrying her load of firewood. He was an old orc slave raised in this tavern. After working on a farm or something like that, they grew old and became useless, so they were sold at a low price as odd-jobbers.
“master. I chopped firewood. “I brought it.”
An orc slave holding firewood spoke in a slurred voice toward the inside of the counter. Soon, a woman with a thick body appeared, pointing her finger and shouting nervously.
“Then shouldn’t you put it in the backyard right now? “Stupid!”
“I get it. Kaltu. Going to the backyard “I’m taking firewood with me.”
The men shook their heads at the sight of him just wandering around and doing as he was told, even though he was being scolded.
“Look, isn’t that an orc?”
“After all, it’s just a rumor, right?”

“Yeah, well.”
Everyone dismissed it as a rumor and drank. Of course, their expressions were not bright. No matter how much it was a rumor, it was a truth that could not be hidden that the Sinai fortress fell and 3,000 troops were defeated. Prince Yubel’s army will soon launch a counterattack, so the royal capital will become a battlefield. There was no way I could taste alcohol.
“What kind of guy commanded the orcs to do something like that?”
“Well, now that I think about it, I heard this story. “A count named Peter.”
“Ah, the one who was annihilated by the dwarves… … .”
“Shh! “The honor of the noble family is at stake, so it’s not something to make a big fuss about!”
The man who spoke stopped him from speaking and lowered his voice. The others also shrugged their shoulders and waited for the next words.
“From what I heard, it seems there is a Philanense priest who is taking care of those dwarves. “It is said that someone saw the priest controlling the dwarves with his fingertips and dealing with them before and after.”
“her? “Don’t temples usually employ slaves for the sake of respect?”
“That makes it even more strange.”
It was then. A woman’s voice interrupted the men’s conversation.
“Can I hear the story in detail now?
The owner of the voice was a slender beauty who appeared to be in her mid-20s. She was dressed as a traveler, and she was holding a bronze goblet in one hand, as if she had been drinking, and before she knew it, she had come to her men’s table and was looking down at them. She was eight heads tall, with a well-toned body, a bewitching face, and a beauty so great that any man could not help but call her beautiful.
However, the men who saw her all had shocked expressions.
‘omg?’
‘What is this, this girl?’
Clearly, a beauty was a beauty. If she were to be painted in a portrait, her beauty would be praised as a peerless beauty. But there was a problem.
The woman was almost 2 meters tall. Her beautiful face was positioned so high that the men sitting there had to tilt their heads back.
‘Why is she so big?’
‘Were you born with the blood of some legendary giant?’
Normally, since I met such a beautiful woman, I would have tried to shout out loud while drunk. However, her height was only limited, and at this point, she couldn’t even think about it. one of her men asked with a look of horror on his face.
“W-what’s going on?”
“Just now, it was about Philanence’s priesthood. “Have you heard anything else?”
The tone seemed polite, yet strangely commanding. However, his attitude was so natural that his men unconsciously responded politely.
“Oh, yes. I haven’t heard much either. The priest who commands the orcs is a priest of Philanense… … Well, they said he was a very young looking boy. He’s about fourteen at most? “She has very long red hair, and they say she is so pretty that she looks like a pretty girl.”
At that moment, the woman’s eyes brightened frighteningly. Her men had a creepy look in their eyes that looked like they were going to eat them at any moment, so the men trembled involuntarily.
The woman burst into laughter with a face like that of a wild animal that has found its prey.
“Hohohoho!”
Crack!
The bronze goblet she was holding was crushed mercilessly!
The men were terrified. You can crush a bronze goblet with just your grip strength? What on earth is the identity of this unbalanced beauty?
But it seemed like the woman had no intention of answering their questions. Turning on her heels, the woman headed out of her bar. She pushed open the door and the woman muttered in her low voice.
“I finally found it. Cilan Phil Marsis, my betrothed!”
Volume 6
Chapter 18 All common sense is destroyed
One
Prince Yubel’s army, which occupied the Sinai fortress, immediately marched towards the royal capital, Krotin. There was only a wide plain between the Sinai Fortress and the royal capital of Krotin, so there was no topographical obstruction. It is not for nothing that the Sinai Fortress is called the gateway that protects the royal capital.
There was a small garrison in the middle, but most of them surrendered immediately when 3,000 troops arrived. Among them, there were those who were loyal to the Karsas side, and although there were occasional battles, they were no match for the numerically superior Prince Yubel’s army. He was literally able to advance at great speed. Prince Yubel’s army’s strategy was to recover the royal capital while his opponent’s troops were scattered, a so-called blitzkrieg.
But Karsas’s side was no slouch either. With his quick response and ability to convey information using magic, Karsas succeeded in gathering his entire army to the royal capital of Krotin in just five days. He rallied faster than the side that had already begun the march, and even Reppenhardt could not help but express admiration at that speed.
“Does this mean that you immediately assessed the situation as soon as you heard the news of the fortress’s fall? Moreover, you are saying that the nobles under your command immediately packed their bags and moved, right? That’s amazing. Strategic ability, network, soldiers’ training… … “There is nothing to blame.”
It is surprising that news was delivered as soon as the Sinai Fortress fell, and the fact that the army could be gathered there immediately means that the communication and command system was also well-equipped. Karsas was not only outstanding in strategy and bravery, but also in administrative ability. Even though he is an enemy, he is truly a talent that cannot help but be acknowledged.
‘As expected, he is a future military commander.’
On the other hand, Prince Yubel’s army, despite insisting on a blitzkrieg, was actually delayed for two days at the Sinai Fortress. This was partly due to the fact that the army could not be properly organized due to the hasty rush, and some who did not trust Reppenhardt opposed the hasty advance. Even if he took the Sinai fortress, the difference in troops still remains, so he needs to spend time in the fortress to gather more troops.
To be honest, it seemed shocking to Reppenhardt.
‘I’m in a situation where I’ve gained the upper hand and put the blade to the enemy’s neck, but the opponent’s neck may be surprisingly hard, so why not wait until someone comes to hold the knife down with me?’
The competence of Karsas and the incompetence of the Yubel camp worked together exquisitely, and in the end, Prince Karsas’ army gathered in the royal capital before Prince Yubel’s army, two days apart. And Karsas, who allowed them a day’s rest, left the royal capital with 10,000 troops in person the next day.
And a day later.
On the Redant Plain in the center of Crovence, on a wide plain between forests, the two camps were facing off at a distance. There were 10,000 Karsas troops and a little over 3,000 Prince Yubel troops. In the end, the blitzkrieg was a failure, and the power of both sides was pitted head-on.
