I followed the geeks as they disappeared into an old cabin deep in the woods.
I watch from the outside for a while, and then the signs of people disappear from inside.
"I'm sure of it."
This hut was so well disguised that even from the outside we could find the same magic circle as the hut that Lord Callum had used.
"This should save us some time."
I have Lord Callum's schedule in mind.
If we wait until early in the morning and head there, we won't run into each other.
"Oh, by the way, ......"
Reminds me of something I've been meaning to do when I get some time.
It's about Lieutenant Cheb.
"There's nothing to do at night anyway. ......"
We need to find out what Lt. Cheb said about "dying well.
Hypotheses are important when investigating things.
It has slipped my mind because I did not think that Lt. Cheb's magic was connected with the concept of death, but on the other hand, there are many ways to find out if it is true.
"Let's start with ......, and see if there are any places around Lind Castle that might have some information."
By the way, the princess is kind of suspicious. She sometimes sent me off with absurd words like "You should check it out." .......
Compared to that, I'm better off now that I'm only trying to back up what I'm sure of in my own way.
The accuracy of Hime-sama's prediction was about 30%. If we only look at the numbers, it is astonishing. She must have a good intuition.
But as for the remaining seventy percent, I had been locked out, saying "I won't forgive you until you come up with something," and I didn't want to take that kind of order any longer.
"Let's see... ......"
We break into the castle of an important person we have identified and gather documents.
Lt. Cheb, and the skills of that magic doll: .......
◇ ◇
"This is ...... what the hell is the empire ...... doing?"
In front of my eyes, there were now countless dolls in the exact same shape as Lieutenant Cheb, who had died that day.
All of them have their eyes closed and are chained to some kind of magical device. They were motionless, as if they were asleep or dead, but there was no doubt that they had magical reactions.
"The person involved is ...... Lieutenant General Gugain, is this to be expected?"
Lt. Cheb is now a national project.
In reality, however, it is not the Empire that is spearheading the project, but rather the Imperial aristocrats who have been seen to be jockeying for control of the project. No, that is precisely why the information came so easily to us.
Lieutenant Cheb is a baronet. And with the barons in their faction, the main promoter of this project was the Marquise of Lieutenant General Gugain.
"So, Sir Callum ......"
The person who is most hostile to Lieutenant General Gugain, or rather to the Marquise, and is working to take away his technology is the frontier count, Lord Callum.
I am troubled by the composition of the situation, which is far more troublesome than I had expected.
"I shouldn't have gotten involved in this case any more than I did with the princess. ......"
According to the documents, even if Lt. Cheb died once, the next puppet would start working, so Lt. General Gugain ordered his lieutenant to make a decisive charge in every battlefield.
If Lt. Cheb, who can produce as many as 1,500 soldiers, jumps into the fray with determination every time, he will be able to repel even a slight inferiority complex.
"And he made it to the rank of lieutenant general ......, while Lt. Cheb, who died in every battle but never made it to the record books, never rose to that rank.
But if you are in the military, you will hear about Lt. Cheb's extraordinary performance.
That is why even Major General Girun had a say in the matter that he could not mention.
He convinced himself of the information that had come to him.
It will take a while for Lieutenant Cheb to come back to life. But his resurrection will be the final decisive factor in the overwhelmingly superior Cologne front.
"Anyway, let's remember who in the military is involved with the magic dolls: ......"
I hope you don't get caught up in another reckless operation.
