There's a band of humans walking through the Great Forest of Furazes.
They're the soldiers of the Countess of Astraeus.
Among them, I can see Lemest.
He wasn't supposed to go to battle, but because his men are unreliable, he's leading the army this time.
The Count family of Astraeus is a family with many martial artists by nature, and those who succeed the family are required to have a certain degree of valor and the ability to command an army.
Lemest is said to be one of the most talented of all the heads of the family, and none is stronger than him in the Astraeus family.
However, my subordinates tried to stop Lemest's departure, but were unable to do so.
''But that's surprising. That Riza would follow orders so easily.
Lemest, walking at the front, muttered to himself.
Berd is walking beside him.
Yes, ...... that was a bit surprising. Well, I guess he had a lot on his mind in his cell.
That's what Berd concluded.
After that, when Riza received orders, she responded.
And I got her to Bellesdral.
Here's what we did.
First, I'll get her to the Bellesdral. We'll tell her that Lemest has had enough and pretend he's turned her.
Then have him tell us that he's building up his army and making plans to attack us. Then you will lure the enemy by telling him the direction of the attack.
Once the enemy is lured, he will attack the city from a completely different direction than the one you gave him.
When you do this, have Riza pretend to be injured and open the gate for the rest of the town.
Attack the town while the main force of the enemy is not there, and if there is a vellum, capture it.
If not, take the people of the town as hostages and make them follow you.
This is the plan.
A few days ago, our scouts reported that a large number of demons have left the city and are marching in the direction we recommended.
The demon city gates are in sight.
Lemest is convinced that the mission is a success, and he has a slight smirk on his face.
I'll go to the gate.
Then he sees Riza on the wall.
"Oh, Riza! Well done! Then open the gate!
Lemest is like that. But Riza is silent for a moment.
"What's the matter! Now open it up!
Lemest is getting a little annoyed because he can't open it, and his tone is rough.
Then Riza holds up her right hand in silence.
Is that a signal to open it? Lemest, he thought.
But the next thing he knew.
A large number of goblins and Arraune and his friends appeared from the walls and unleashed their magic all at once.
''What?!''
Fire, ice and other magics are unleashed at once, throwing the army into chaos.
''Calm down! Don't panic!
In an effort to rebuild, Lemest scolded his men, but they wouldn't budge.
(What's going on? A large number of demons have been reported out of town: ...... More importantly, Riza, did you betray us? (That Riza!)
Lemest is violently upset .
Then he turns back to begin the retreat.
What?
There was an army of ants, led by Vellums.
Now, I'm getting annoyed with you all. I'm not going to go easy on you this time.
With that proclamation, Bellamus and Ari and the others charged at the army of House Astraeus.
.
A few days ago.
"Master Bellamus, Master Riza is here in town again.
What?
That's what Medina reported to me.
This time he didn't pass out, and he came of his own volition. What do you want to do?
I'm gonna go check it out a bit.
Vellums went outside the gate to check on Riza.
When I got outside the gate, I saw Riza.
She had a somber expression on her face.
"What's the matter, why are you in town again? What's going on?
Vellums asked.
'I came here because I had to tell you something: ......
What?
Then Bellamus heard everything from Riza.
She told him to go to the Belesdral and tell them that he betrayed her and that he was misinformed.
And he told her all the details of the plan Lemest had in mind, and that Lemest had no intention of giving up.
'If you've come to tell me that, does that mean that Riza has betrayed Count Astraeus?
...... Yes.
He nodded.
Then, Bellamus listened to the details of the operation.
Bellamus wondered a little why Riza was willing to betray him, and asked why.
Then he heard what had happened after Riza had returned.
Bellamus is convinced, and he decides that he isn't lying.
He invites Riza in.
Now what to do. After all, you have to have some blood on your hands to give it up. ......)
Vellums decided to show no mercy this time.
If he was going to come again, this time it was going to be a regular fight.
And so we came up with a battle plan.
It wasn't particularly complicated.
We're told we have a scout, so we'll let him see that his army is ready to fight.
First, we find out where the scouts are.
Once I'd sent my men out into the woods to report back to me, I sent everyone but the Legionnaires and Bellamus back into town, and Bellamus and his legionary force moved to the rear of the enemy.
The plan worked, and they succeeded in driving Lemest back.
