“It is estimated that the 2nd prince has many artifacts of evil spirits.”
Everyone listened to Marcellity’s words.
It was a bit out of the blue, but Schwein had instructed me to explain it, so I was interested.
“Everyone knows that Prince 2 defeated Sai Yorgil. I felt strange there.”
“Certainly, the difference in scenery is quite significant.”
“Yes, and Sai Yorgil lost even though he used an heirloom. It’s strange even considering that I can’t use it properly.”
“Because of that, I doubt the authenticity of the one-on-one match information.”
Everyone nodded at Romwell’s words.
Even taking that into account, the gap between the lower and upper 7 stars was large.
“I understand what you mean, but first of all we need to focus on what the 2 princes have done.”
“hmm?”
“When I was 6-star high, I killed Boris Ronberg, who was 7-star intermediate. In addition, he is also the soul of a heterogeneous person who made a contract with the Dark Spirit King.”
“… … Certainly, talent is said to be the best in the kingdom.”
“Yes, considering his age, his current skills are quite good. And there is also realism.”
“Reality?”
“Considering the status of the 2nd prince, you can have a lot of evil god artifacts. Maybe you have all three.”
“Hmm, that makes sense. Since the remnants of Silverted were said to have been subjugated by the kingdom… … .”
“Yes, so I think we should make the killing of the 2 princes our top priority for our next attack.”
A few doubts appeared on the faces of the listeners.
It was persuasive, but it was because of the thought that it was necessary to aim with that level of concentration.
Besides, since the opponent is the crown prince, the escort will be considerable… … .
However, Marcellity ignored the atmosphere and continued.
“The talent of the 2 princes is very intimidating. It was to the extent that it beat the upper level with a 7-star lower level. What if this kind of person grows up?”
“… … It will surely become a big problem.”
“Yes, even if it is 7-star, it will be a considerable force.”
“That’s right, as time goes by, it will become an unmanageable force.”
“That’s right, you must have already mastered transcendence magic.”
“It’s like looking at the bastard of the Ronberg family.”
Everyone silently affirmed his words.
A strange soul that is stronger than the power to use or reach.
It was because in many ways it was the same as him.
“By the way, Archbishop Marcellity, I want to ask you something.”
“Speak, Mr. Romwell.”
“I admit the necessity and usefulness of this operation, but is it possible?”
It is said that he is currently on the continent of Feyer, but aiming for the 2nd prince was very difficult.
Judging from the current trend, he was the core of the alliance… … .
“The family head said he would come up with a countermeasure.”
At Marcelati’s words, her eyes moved cautiously.
Schwein, who noticed this, nodded and said.
“He has a habit.”
“Whoa, what is that?”
“When the moment comes to decide the future, there is a tendency to step forward.”
Schwein mentioned the times when he showed his true colors and attacked the allied forces and when he targeted Mayfield.
Both were able to seek safety from the rear without stepping out directly.
However, he pointed out that the second prince did not do that.
“If it’s to increase the odds, I tend to take risks and move directly. I’m going to target this habit.”
“And I have something that can help with the family head’s plan.”
Marcelity pulled out a grayish-white cube from her bosom.
It was in the form of being locked in a spell.
“By activating this, the user of the demonic artifact can be greatly shocked.”
“Oh, did you have something like that?”
“Yes, it is limited to those on the Sigvarda continent, but… … Silverted suffered from this too, so you can believe it.”
“It’s a name I miss. The super recovery he used was said to be from the East Continent.”
“you’re right. And they say that this effect gets bigger the more evil god artifacts you have.”
“How much is that?”
“If the 2 princes have all three, they will die instantly.”
Romwell’s eyes twinkled.
2 Considering the influence the prince has, the aftermath of his instant death will be staggering indeed.
“I would like to hear specific information about the item.”
“It was made to suppress the users of the evil spirit’s artifacts, and there was a record that all of them were effective.”
“Nobody left out?”
“Yes, they said it would work unconditionally unless it was Hubris himself.”
“Good. It’s up to the family head to decide, but I won’t object to the ploy of using that.”
Others agreed with Romwell’s words.
It was said that it could be used after entering a certain distance, so there was no reason to oppose it.
Schwein, who confirmed this, said while looking at the members of the Resurrection Church, including Masellaty.
“If this task succeeds, I will give you immense power.”
“Thank you, the head of the household.”
“And here today, Solstad declares that it will accept the Resurrection Church.”
The Resurrection Church was captured by a giant family, but this did not mean reconciliation.
Yorgil obtained a lot of information and means from them, but he was reluctant to use them.
Because Ronberg clearly drew the line.
Solstad was the one who most actively tried to accept the Resurrection Church.
Right here and now, he had announced that he would officially reconcile with them.
“With this we will respond to Ronberg’s machinations. If you have any objections, speak up now.”
There was no one who came forward to Schwein’s words.
It was the will of the family head, so there were things I had to follow.
This is because it has already been decided to some extent internally.
“None. Then I’ll leave Archbishop Marcelity to take care of the rest.”
“Yes, I will tell you in private to Yorgil and the followers in Ronberg.”
* * *
The situation happened suddenly.
After the fall of Mayfield, the sluggish giant families took action in earnest.
“… … Did Ronberg finally move?”
“Yes, Your Highness. It appears to have moved to hit the coastal forces and western warriors.”
“Solstad is also coming up here, Heinsburg, with most of his troops.”
“… … .”
Currently, I was staring at a map with the allied commanders.
All faces, including mine, were full of questions.
Even though Solstad’s all-out offensive was so, it was because Ronberg’s movement was strange.
“Even if it’s blocking the kingdom’s naval power, why are you targeting the western warriors?”
“I am also a bit suspicious of that part. If this is the case, there will be more places to be concerned about… … .”
“I agree, in this case Ronberg will suffer a great loss in managing the force.”
“There are more places to be concerned about, so if you do something wrong, you could do a lot of damage.”
It was very different from what Ronberg had been doing so far.
Since we are moving while taking damage and risk… … .
“Your Highness, now we have to come up with a countermeasure against Solstad. There is no time.”
“… … Yes, it is.”
We didn’t have time to hold onto and worry about Ronberg.
Since Solstad was advancing with most of the force right now… … .
I had to quickly analyze the enemy and roll a mock battle.
‘Damn it, something’s not right… … .’
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t figure out why Ronberg was aiming for the western warrior.
But since I couldn’t afford to spend more time on it, I had no choice but to let it go.
“How much is Solstad’s power estimated?”
“It is estimated at least 50,000.”
“It’s a little more than the allied forces, but the actual strength will be more than that.”
“… … That would be the case, since they would have brought all the best, including the guards.”
In terms of pure prowess, Solstad was the strongest of the great families.
Including magic tools and weapons, it could be a Ronberg, but… … .
Average strength, 7-star superior or higher, size of troops.
All of this was because Solstad was the best among the great families.
“It is said that Romwell Solstad did not participate in the war.”
“That’s fortunate, are you guarding the base?”
“Yes, it seems that way.”
The former head of the household, Romwell Solstad, was a very famous figure.
If Schwein is one of the greatest talents of all generations, then Romwell is called the best for his pure skills… … .
He was the unmanned man called the strongest in the Feyer continent.
Even Silvertedt had declared that he could not win.
“But most of the 8 stars, including Staten, are said to have participated in the war.”
“There are probably all guards like Jeokleunghwang… … .”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
To put it bluntly, Solstad during the last war was not sincere at all.
It wasn’t about the troops they mobilized.
It wasn’t the attitude of attacking and capturing it with sincerity, but the feeling of trying to recognize the enemy was strong.
“Is there any possibility of a search battle this time?”
“Then I’d appreciate it, but probably not.”
“I agree with Your Highness. Bringing this much power would mean that they would quickly destroy us.”
“What does the head of Shardan think of this situation?”
He touched my chin at my question.

Looking at the terrain and enemy movements, he was thinking about how to devise the best plan.
“It’s difficult. If we give up Heinsburg, we should be able to stop it comfortably, but… … .”
“In the long run, that’s not a good payoff.”
Everyone nodded at my words.
Heinsburg, the capital of Henrik, was affluent, but unsuitable for defense.
At least Navaletta was there, so I was able to consider a defense battle.
“To be honest, I don’t know how long we can survive a siege.”
“Is that enough?”
“Yes, if we can survive for a week, we can say that we have done well.”
I knew about Solstad, though I had fought the last battle.
It was nothing compared to Rien, who had been confronting him directly for a long time.
That’s why I didn’t dispute Shardan’s judgment.
“Then, after assuming a blockade for five days, how about retreating after seeing the situation?”
“… … It won’t be easy, but I think it’s reasonable.”
“I agree to your proposal. It would be better to withdraw and give us time to scavenge supplies from Heinsburg.”
“It makes me feel a little bit sick to use the strategy of giving land to the enemy.”
“I can’t help it, it’s not the time to be greedy for the land… … .”
All fronts belonging to Rien’s territory were easy to defend.
As many times as they were attacked by the giant family, it was thanks to the fact that they paid a lot of attention to the defense line.
“And delaying it will leave an opening for the enemy.”
“That’s right, Ronberg’s movements are also strange… … .”
“Solstad has also brought most of its power, so there will be gaps if it gets longer.”
The day after that policy was decided.
We greeted Solstad remembering the strategies we had planned.
I know it’s not an easy fight, but I could feel that all the allies were quite determined.
but… … .
“Kwaaak!”
“Cheuk… … !”
“No, stop… … .”
“Don’t back down! The 3rd Army quickly linked up and filled the square… … .”
Kwagwagwagwang-!
The bombardment of speculation poured down like rain.
As a result, the allied forces were swept away like autumn leaves.
At that overwhelming sight, the commanders, including myself, were stunned.
