“The outline of the operation is as follows.”
Elaine opened her mouth with the map open.
“To hear from the locals… .”
Information brought by Pawiji.
– I’m going to die today too! Demon lords don’t know what to do. Don’t catch that guy!
Even while Count Abba locked the castle gate and locked himself away, Lee Nam, Shaslik, son of Count Abba, said that he did not stop teasing Yeong-ji-min.
Because of him patrolling the territory with a torch every night, Young Ji-min said that he locked the door from early evening and did not come out.
so.
“Today, too, this horned son of a bitch is going to get out of the castle.”
It won’t be any different than today.
“Also, if you look at the territories who were harassed by bastards… .”
Swoop.
line drawn.
“There is a certain route.”
Five. Is that so”
It really was.
Although Shashlik seemed to touch anyone, he was only touching those included in a certain route.
“That means… .”
I picked up one while inspecting the two secret passages that Elaine had previously marked.
“You must be using this place.”
indeed… .”
Looking at Shaslik’s route, it seemed better to use this secret passage to move comfortably.
“And it happens that this side is the one with the least security.”
The information Demis brought.
“That must have been what Shashlik did.”
Elaine said assertively.
maybe.
“Perhaps to prevent the locals from accusing them easily when they visit the guards, or to escape.”
It was also evident that the hole had been made by Shashlik.
So… .”
Swoop.
Elaine draws the line again.
“We will infiltrate the castle through this secret passage.”
nod
It was as if the answer to a mission that had seemed difficult was in sight.
I’ll move in stealth, and I’ll head straight to the lord’s room.
The location of the lord’s room.
nod
Carl knows.
He had already been to the county of Ava a few times, and had said that he had seen the count’s room.
at there… .”
Swoop.
Elaine pretended to cut her throat with her index finger.
“Assassinate the Count.”
Way
“It depends. In fact, there are no special conditions for this mission, such as the count having to appear to have died of natural causes. It doesn’t matter whether you stab him to death, cut him to death, or burn him to death.”
Then the story is easier.
“I heard Count Ava is a 4th circle swordsman.”
This is also the information Carl gave.
“There is no problem with us. After that, we will exit the same way we came in.”
If that’s the case.
“Mission successful.”
clearer picture.
There seemed to be no angular parts in this picture.
“Chief is Carl, who has a different opinion”
no.
“I am the vice-captain. disagreement… won’t there be
“No, of course.”
everything is going smoothly
“Then, go on your way now.”
Elaine ordered them.
There shouldn’t be any mistakes, so you’d better check it thoroughly.
Okay.
The students moved out of the inn room again.
“Whoa.”
Elaine wiped the sweat that was forming on her.
“It doesn’t suit me.”
Plans, explains, and assigns roles.
Others think it’s just as easy, but those who have tried it never thought so.
Elaine just thought it would be easier to fire magic on the battlefield.
and.
“Are you okay with this”
That’s why the sword looks even more great.
In fact, the plan Elaine had told me was not conceived by her.
Although she was born as the son of Fontenaga, she was the youngest daughter and all she remembers from her family is being locked up in a small room and being bullied.
She doesn’t know much about the physiology or life of aristocrats.
That’s why she was able to explain the strategy as if she knew a lot about nobles.
-You do it.
It was thanks to Carl.
“You did it.”
Carl did all the planning.
Before Pawizy or Demis could get the information.
-The rumors about Count Abba are not good.
The sword had already pierced everything.
-The county’s territories are complaining of pain. If you think about it… .
What Elaine did was similar to just reciting what Carl had said.
It’s just a little modified to fit the situation.
All Elaine did was mana detection to make sure the secret passage was all there was to it.
“You never know what might happen on a mission.”
Carl says.
“If a problem arises with me as the commander, the role of the deputy commander is important. That’s you, Elaine.”
“… … .”
“What allows you to think and act like a commander, what allows you to give others faith. That’s what you need too.”
Elaine.
thank you.
she answers.
Carl knows.
Elaine’s true goal.
That it was not very different from the path Carl wanted to take.
To that end, Carl only did what he could do for Elaine.
Request… .”
Elaine said with a slightly flushed face.
“Tell me if you have a request.”
That’s the best favor she can do.
I’ll listen to anything.
No, that was the only thing she could say now.
“Remember.”
And the night came.
“Heh heh… .”
Shaslik Ava, the younger son of Count Ava, was passing through a deep and dark passage.
He was with two escort knights, who lit their torches and said,
young master. It’s not good to use the family’s secret passage like this.”
At that time, Shashlik’s smiling face changed in an instant.
Percussion!
Shaslik’s foot kicked the knight in the shin.
“Are you giving me advice now”
“Do, young master… .”
If you don’t shut up, I’ll pull out your sword and shove it into your forearm after me.
Only then did the knight shut his mouth.
“Hehehe.”
Count Abba.
They were no different from the tyrants of the territory.
Originally, it is the nobility of the continent.
There are kings and emperors, but in nobles’ territories without them, nobles act like kings.
In other words, it was a story that the territory could become heaven or hell depending on who the nobleman was.
And, to be sure, the Countess of Abba.
-hell.
It was living hell.
Backed by Count Ava, who boasts omnipotent power, his children do the devil’s work every single day.
There is no one who goes against their evil deeds, and no one is excluded.
The knights were also reluctant to deal with them, and the family wizards also locked themselves in their closets and did not come out.
“… … .”
So you can’t stop this demon.
That was the knights’ idea.
“Where shall we go today”
Shashlik says with a laugh.
I’m sure the laughter sounded better at the blacksmith’s yesterday
Shashlik, who plots insidious things, looked the happiest in the world.
“Today I must make that house full of cries!”
The knight closed his eyes tightly.
I thought I wanted to close my eyes and bring my torch to the head of this dog.
However, as a family knight, that is something that should never be done.
So I endured it.
Finally, the end of the passage appeared.
“Light the torch!”
Shashlik approached the door and began to draw a pattern.
Ugh, I hate it, but I’ll have to sacrifice for happiness.
Then, he put the dagger to his finger, and a drop of blood was shed.
That was the activation of the magic circle.
Cuckoo coo!
The act of opening an exit blocking a secret passage.
It was the moment when the dazzling moonlight entered the face of the little demon.
“Suck!”
The knights hurriedly put their hands on the swords in surprise.
But it’s already too late.
slip.
One knight was enchanted and fell with his eyes closed.
Taat!
Another knight was struck on the nape of the neck and passed out just like that.
What’s left now.
“What, what kind of guy are you!”
It was only Shashlik.
Bright bright moonlight.
One by one, shadows appear from among them.
The two shadows had already settled behind Shashlik for a long time.
“You are one of the scum of the famous Count Abba family.”
“Shit, garbage!”
Shashlik shouted, his face contorted in anger.
“How dare you guys know who I am… .”
It was there.
Pooh!
Pawidge’s fists plunged deep into Shashlik’s thick stomach.
“Kwaweeek!”
Shashlik vomits and cries as if a pig is crying.
Cheeky!
It was only for a moment that he collapsed on the vomit he had vomited.
eww.
Students shaking their heads at the sight.
However.
“Paweed. carry it.”
Elaine said to Paweedy.
“What, what”
Did you hear it wrong
No matter how much he was a student of Terran, he was a son of a nobleman.
He had no interest in carrying a human who had rubbed his body in vomit.
“It’s insurance.”
said Elaine.
“It is said that Count Abba cares for his children very much. So taking him with you will at least help.”
reasonable words.
“Why, me… .”
“You are the strongest. So pick it up.”
ha.
Eventually, Pawiji let out a deep sigh and picked up the fallen Shashlik.
The passage is open.
The entrance will also be open.
now.
“It is a start.”
Carl and the others said while wearing masks.
Tadada dat!
As they ran fast, the sound of their footsteps diminished as time went on.
This is also the footsteps learned from Laucia’s teachers.
It was intended to reduce sound in dark passageways.
floating.
At the same time, Elaine cast a floating magic on everyone in the group to further reduce the sound.
those who went that way.
“Entrance!”
I finally found the starting point of the passage.
shit.
The students looked at each other and laughed.
The mountain behind the Earldom of Abba.
Hellebron was still sitting cross-legged there.
Although he had his eyes closed.
-이 개새끼!
-It’s the entrance!
Everything was clearly visible and heard clearly.
Hellebron was already watching all of the students.
Well.
evaluation of him.
“Not bad.”
Clearly, students were formulating and implementing plans based on what they had learned.
There.
‘Karl Franz.’
Certainly he was impressive.
He knows how to set up a strategy based on the information he has and properly distribute the balls.
His individual ability was also his ability, but he also had outstanding ability as a commander.
As it is.
“The mission will easily succeed.”
Like I said, Hellebron sees everything.
structure of the castle.
number of expenses.
Even to the level of knights and wizards.
He could also see the location of Count Abba in detail.
“You are doing something interesting.”
Did I mention that Count Abba is confined to the castle
Hellebron had already felt it since he came near the Countess of Ava.
if it stays like this
“It will be over before I even wake up.”
that’s himself
-Do it in moderation.
Even his master would not want it.
Swoop.
Hellebron stood up.
In his right hand, the training iron sword he had received from Terran was in place.
sereung.
The sword began to tremble with the ringing of the sword.
The sword, bathed in moonlight, was slowly moving in a shallow arc.
And finally, the moment the sword stopped.
Rumble!
Part of the castle collapsed.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been out, so have fun.”
