Tribal forces commanded by Aerial stopped. Aerial had entered Alexandria's territory at the behest of Line. Although it is a mercenary, it did not officially cross the border, so it is an act of aggression. Of course, this action makes sense.
A few days ago...
Unexpectedly, Jaeger was running out of time to clean up the Dragon Squad problem. That said, there is plenty of resupply to be done, but originally, this unit was sent to tactically delay the anticipated advance of Romanesque, and it is expected that there will still be a considerable amount of time before Romanesque advances.
Ideally, it would be desirable to participate in the civil unrest in Alexandria in the name of clearing up the conflict zone, letting Diole or "the other side" win, and confronting Roman's Land while gaining a cause score. Otherwise, the Alpha Leiths hired by Roman's Land will be in danger.
Alpha Reese tells the line that she will do something about the worst face-to-face battles, but no matter what side of Jaeger is stuck in the winter romansland, it's impossible to help her from the outside. Worst of all, we could lose all the 5,000 men we've sent to Romansland.
Action on the Eastern Front is entirely at the discretion of the line, except for the concordance of plans on the major axis. And Corwin has been sent here to adjust our strategy and tactics. Even the rapprochement with Ridil, who led the dragons this time, and the addition of some humanized dragons to their ranks, is line's discretion.
And as Layer made a deal with Doom, Line reviewed the information Layer brought back with Corwin.
"First Officer, what do you think?"
... I see, that's what it is. Is that why you're here? "
"Do you know what that means?"
"I'm not sure, but I think I know what happened... yes, everything was connected..."
In front of Rhine's agonizing expression, the old Corwin couldn't hear any more, just looking at Layer's face and shaking his head sideways.
And Rhine seemed to be inquiring about something in the nearby Magic Society branch. Little by little, Tetrathin, who had returned to the president of the Magic Society under the line, came with Lissie.
"Excuse me."
"Hey! There's another big guy. Wasn't the sorcerer's association broken?"
"It burst into hatred. That's what I needed. I didn't plan to do that."
Tetrastine entered Jaeger's garrison from the front with no worries and even with a grand attitude. Even more so, the presence of Jaeger here is not publicly available at this time.
Then, signaling Lissie with her chin, she spread some kind of map and expressed her dissatisfaction.
"Are you sure you don't have a more discreet way of contacting me?" If anyone knew what your information meant, my current relationship with the state could have broken down, far from my position and the balance within the magic association. "
"Then please tell me the personal contact information of the beauty there." Then I'll take care of it from now on. "
"There will be witches."
"I'm paying for my hatred." Besides, you're hated by witches. "
I'm telling you, right?
Not only strength, but also resourcefulness. Lissie's reaction to the containment was also impressive. From the moment she entered, Lissie was intimidated underwater, but she couldn't flush it or control her forehead. It was Tetrastin who was thinking of seizing it and letting him listen to what he had to say, but Lizzy's eyes signaled that it was impossible.
Tetrastin admitted that he was a competent deputy commander. Then, looking at the map with Rhine and Corwin spread out, he bowed his head. The map depicted a completely different picture from the border, and there were two types of maps.
What's this?
"A void point in the sphere of influence of the sorcery association." Or a blessed land where spirits are depleted. The other one is called Magic Path, which shows the richness of the land of spirits. It's limited to this area.
"Is this all of them? The number is not evenly proportioned ~"
Tetrathin turned a sharp gaze to the seemingly sharp point between Corwin's eyes.
"Of course not." Some of the voids disappeared in an instant, and some magicians in the land were subtly hiding their magic piles. If I used my magic curtains, I could use some sorcery that I couldn't do on my own. No matter what, the headquarters of the Magic Society was built on top of the greatest magic power ever discovered. ”
Even after deducting that fact, it seems that there are many lands that have been depleted of magic power and the appearance of vanity.
“You're right, but I think this map is one of the answers you're looking for.”
It's private, isn't it?
"Of course, in return for the information you gave me." Think of the meaning I'll bring directly to you again. By feeding on one of these, you can wipe out half of the Magic Society's faction in a power struggle. ”
"That's important, isn't it?"
The line said so, but honestly, it didn't matter to the line. Rhine looked at the map carefully, forgetting about Tetrastin and Lissie. The map also depicts dots near the land and town that I know, and I realized that just pinching a different view of one value would mean something completely different from a map.
For Rhine, a former knight, it was fresh to look at a map without borders. I was looking at it for a while, but I noticed one thing.
I'm almost an amateur when it comes to sorcery, but does a magic accumulator work better when you tie two or more of them together?
"It depends on the nature." Of course, if spirits of conflicting nature are gathered together, it can be counterproductive. "
“Tell me one more thing. Is this map accurate?"
"No, it's pretty messy." It is said that the prototype of the map itself was created more than 200 years ago. Since the technology of drawing at that time is known, it will only show the approximate positional relationship. "
"Corwin, did you get a map of Kazas?" Bring it to me. "
Yes ~ Yes ~
While speaking with Kazas, Rhine has heard about the process of the compilation work. I admire its accuracy and have even received a map of Casas instead of a reward.
During this battle, I received as many detailed maps as I could get from Kasas to use in my tactics. It is one of the great advantages of Jaeger.
In front of the map that Corwin brought, Rhein asked Tetrathin questions one after the other. As a result, dots were drawn one after another on the map of Kazas. By the end of the transfer, not only Tetrastin, but all four of them had changed their complexion.
There are some discontinuities, but when I connect the approximate points, the figure comes up as if it makes sense.
"This is..."
I don't believe it's a pulse map.
Corwin reacts to Tetrastan's words with a twitch.
Is the earth vein a flow of magic power from all over the continent that only teachers and witches know ~?
"The current witch probably doesn't know the veins of the earth." It's probably been a long time since we exchanged information at the Witch's Supper, so if we knew each other's place of residence, we might have had that once. If the instructor knows the exact pulse map so far, how many people are there? "
"It's completely confidential ~ Rare minerals can also be influenced by the flow of spirits ~ It's not enough to develop the land along this map to be able to make a fortune ~"
"It's possible."
Tetrastin nods to Corwin's suggestion. Lissie asked, tracing the map.
"There are places where voids appear like dots between magic spells." What does this mean? "
“Well, hypotheses are often the only cause of imagination.”
"... there's a big fight going on in some places." Not only in the war zone, but also in places where the demon king emerged, and now the mine veins are exhausted and the village is abandoned. "
"Oh, it's true. There is also a big battle in history ~"
Is that so?
"Tetrasten, are you familiar with history?"
... there's something going on here, too.
Tetrastin avoided the details, but he couldn't possibly tell the ridiculous story of Lissie killing herself in the ruins for hundreds of years. I glanced at Lissie, but she didn't even look me in the eye.
