The Alphilis had lost their way through the woods. I don't have 50 people with me already. Some of them died in earlier raids by the Dark Monkeys, but most of their unaccompanied companions were detached. Still, from day to day, in times of fire, all my people are following Alphilis because of his training to gather around the Alphilis.
But Alphilis couldn't afford to retreat while choosing to leave either, so he no longer knew where he was now. Alphilis calls Dorothy and Lisa, who are next door.
"Lisa, is there a high ground nearby? I want to see where this place is."
"It will stay straight and go a little high. Dorothy, stay ahead."
"Copy that!
As Lisa ordered, Dorothy ran out on her own. Dorothy, who was just a country daughter, has also already grown to the point of waving her sword beside Alphilis. That's also Dorothy's own talent, but honest she swallows very well no matter what she makes her do. In addition, she had a crisis-sensing capability to speak of as a wild conundrum. The trust that letting the darkness precede you alone just doesn't result in an early and clumsy outcome is put aside.
But they went out into the hills a little higher than their surroundings. Dorothy climbing an affordable tree looks around and comes down.
"Did you see anything?
"I can see the lights everywhere. I don't see anything like a fort in Salamo, and I think it's probably over the mountain."
"Are you fighting all around there? Apparently, all the night raiders may have been hit back."
"Obviously the information is leaking. Maybe we shouldn't go back to Salamo."
To the words of Alphilis, I quieted around. But my people are still in the fort of Salamo. Moreover, waiver of the contract constitutes gross negligence. It will take several years for the Alphilis and the others to start taking requests of this magnitude again.
It was a troubled alphilis, but numerous figures come over there.
"Oh, are you all right?"
"Rhine? You were alive."
"Oh, shit."
The line answers with a slight chest strain.
"You don't even have to sit back like that. There's no way you're gonna get stuck with them. Venn's safe, too."
"... you didn't mean it?
"Naturally. A group of yellow knights is an unforgiving group that runs horses for three days and three nights if necessary to tailor their opponents. I don't know what that gives up so lightly, if you intend to do it from the start, if there's anything else to do, or if you don't mind.
At least, if they were serious, we'd have been more harmed. But it looks like you got hit pretty hard. "
"Actually..."
Alphilis talked to the Dark Monkey about Hekatonkail. The line listens with a often difficult face.
"I knew it was weird."
"What's odd?
"This war, it is certainly the first time in a long time that there has been a distinguished war between nations. Sometimes the war between Krums and Zamwed was Zamwed's land of beasts, and mercenaries did not participate actively. It was a war of electric lightning. But not this time. The mercenaries had enough time to listen to the information and participate.
But there are too many mercenaries. Besides, Arnelia's intervention hasn't worked, and I don't think the negotiations between the countries have been decent. Whatever the client is, Vesel is a big country. The country is also moisturized by trade, and will want to fight with compensation rather than wage war. This way of gathering mercenaries is unusual, even if it is always done to some extent. According to the information I was grabbing, the opponent employs all of the Karatzel Cavalry. There are many other mercenaries. It's just an anomaly to fight over a border line, this way of gathering power. It's like we're just going to take down the clientele. "
"That won't be possible. I hear that there will be more desert when the land of the client is divided inside. It's hard to move on and I can't wait to pull it off. It is a land that you take away and gain nothing. If Vesel is a luxurious nation of resources, it's not worth taking away our clients."
"That's right..."
Alphilis nodded at Lisa's remarks. Thank you. Various factors were intricately intertwined and I didn't see the full battle. Of course mercenaries don't need to know that much, but they don't refresh. Though the war was rapidly requested, Miriazal's request was unlikely to be fulfilled as it was.
Say a word more that Lisa cares about.
"Besides, I heard a bunch of people coming in earlier when we escaped talking, apparently the enemy has even more company. 'I'll get you a good place before they get here,' he exclaimed."
"I wonder who they... are talking about. Is it the Carazel Cavalry?
"I guess cavalry can fight in the woods at night. It was the Dark Monkeys who fought. I wonder if there was a mercenary regiment that could fight in the woods at night more than those guys..."
The line often thought about it, but it still came to no conclusion. They let their mates take a small pause and told them which route to escape. The conclusion was quick. They decided to go back to Salamo on a roundabout so as to avoid the firehand they currently see. Either way, Salamo still has other people left. You can't just not go home.
Many of the Jaegers were hurt. It will be clear, however, that a rather painful battle will continue to be forced because Arnelia's assistance is not expected when he returns. Venn, who was scouting, came back.
"There are no obvious enemy shadows around. If we're gonna get out of here, we're on our way."
"Yes, please continue to scold me."
"Okay."
"Wait. Is this sound...?
Lisa pulled off Venn trying to scout again. Even if the sensors don't arrive, they seem to hear sounds in their ears that are not always heard by humans.
"It must be a horseshoe sound... but this...?
"There are no street-like things around. There's about a beast path, but it's not the kind of path that makes a horse run. Well, it's moon and night now. It would be unnecessarily impossible."
"I know that too Lisa... but it's still a horseshoe sound. And a few are about a hundred rides. Alphilis, let everyone be on their guard. The enemy may already have noticed this way."
"No way. How are you going to push me through these night woods?
Alphilis was half-hearted, too, but Lisa was even more serious.
"You don't even know that, Lisa! But there are enemies looming."
"Okay, I'll believe Lisa. But from which direction does the enemy come?
"They attack us in a semi-circular form to wrap us up. Cliffs in the direction of no enemies. Completely surrounded."
"Either way, do we have to do it? Let's get hungry, Alphilis."
The line pulls out its sword and takes a combat stance. Venn flew the instructions early in the arrow succession, and Alphilis took a combat stance without feeling it either. Soon, as Lisa said, the horseshoe sounds.
It was Fenna who reacted to that sound as quickly as possible. Fenna felt uncomfortable with the sound of the horseshoe. Horses usually run at a certain stride. But the sound of horseshoes you can hear now is chirping. Fenna often listened and realized who the sound was.
"Alfi, be careful!
"What?"
"The enemy comes riding through the woods! It's fast!
With the screams of Fenna, the Alphilis and the others saw an incredible sight. The cavalry, who emerged from the woods, came through the woods with speed on.
"What?
"Unbelievable! You're gonna hit a tree branch and break your neck bone, aren't you?
The Alphilis, who were plunged into the void, were defeated by cavalry. A scream is heard there, and the swords of the cavalry are swung down over the heads of their fellow Alphilis.
"Aim for the horse's feet! Take away your manoeuvre!
"But this horse!
I also know the face of Jaeger. He tried to rip off the horse's legs to pull the knights down. But the rider's operation was brilliant, and the horse cleverly swallowed his sword. Deep fried, horses flew on all fours like rabbits. Mercenaries stunned by behavior not found in ordinary horses.
"What is that?
"The way you muscle is different from a normal horse. Is that the secret to running in the woods without slowing down?"
"That's kind of growing up in the woods, you've heard of nocturnal horses. I'm not supposed to be able to ride like a human being."
"I don't care about that! Can't you handle it?
The Alphilis scream sounded, but the situation remained unchanged. As Lisa toured the sensor to find out where the enemy general was, she sensed only one immobile enemy. When Lisa concentrated her consciousness on the enemy, she said she was waiting for her. It was as if she knew Lisa's sensors would fly.
You won't get away with it.
"I am one of the captains of the Karazel Cavalry, the Green Knight Woznum. I don't have any resentment or need to fight, because I can't keep my face on the battlefield and join you with my bare hands. See, it would involve a knight's ticket, wouldn't it?
So could you please die here? Well, if they're us, we can't help it, can we? So, see, die fast. "
Lisa was angry at Ooznam for his hasty demise. That's why I told him. Thoughtful, so that it sounds bad in character, knowing I can't get my voice.
