The Penetian camp in the morning was busy.
A strange vitality and slow vitality hovered like smoke through the barracks alley.
It was a time when a storm on the battlefield struck again.
-Chuck, chuck, chuck!
“The morning training is over! Let everyone return to the barracks.”
“Yes!”

Of course, it was an orderly and calm atmosphere on the outside.
Wilhelmina Sneijder was a respected aristocrat, and she knew how to raise the morale of her soldiers when necessary.
During the temporary truce, she sent more than double the usual number of medical personnel to the aid station.
More than half were priests who had enemies in her estate.

On the one hand, the rationing of military supplies was greatly increased, and the soldiers were provided with sufficient rest.
Inside and outside, he used his hands wisely to reduce the ripple effect of the Imperial Army’s flyers.
Their second shear was definitely less effective than the first.
It was the result of putting in a large number of paladins of the air attribute to defend the source, and paying a lump sum allowance to those who collected leaflets.
The empire’s strategy had planted doubts and fears in the minds of its subjects, but there was little chance for them to be expressed outwardly.
The shards of paper must have reached the East Sea, but there were many of her limbs there.
Duke Sneijder responded calmly throughout.
No one had seen her raise her voice in decades.
Soon, the soldiers were busily playing with their feet and scattered.

One of them secretly stuck to a passing comrade.
“Where do you pray today?”
“In the barracks where Kim and Koeman live.”
“Next to the willow tree?”
“okay.”
“Thank you.”
And the two quickly opened up a distance.
They were innocent faces as if they had exchanged whispers.
Everyone shrugged their shoulders under the chilly air and took a step together.
Some of the soldiers were praying day and night, hoping for Crown Princess Elissa’s safe return.
Most of them were short-educated people.
These were the people who had never even guessed the situation of the Penetians, conflicts between nobles, and the structure of power.
But even for the ignorant people, there was hope.
They also had leaders they depended on, and they had a glimmering dream of tomorrow.
The promised future shone brightly like the sun in the middle of the night.
“So, what’s for lunch today?”
“Uh-huh. Ask where you are giving it and take it with gratitude.”
“Zeep. I eat better than when I was at home. But tomorrow, the battle will start again.”
“I know yeah. I wish it was meat broth if possible!”
“No! lets think. If His Majesty comes back…”
-Jump, jerk, jerk…
The ‘He’ disappeared like a lie, leaving a golden spear in the desolate plain.
-Wheewoo…
“·················ogue.”
The Earl of the New Kingdom, Arno van Roy, looked at the soldiers’ backs with somber eyes.
Left alone in the gymnasium, he was lost in thought.
People are indeed simple and complex creatures.
Although it is obviously Duke Sneijder who provides ‘grace’ that touches the skin, the object they deeply depend on is none other than Elissa Penetian.
A hand touching the foreheads of the soldiers while going to and from the aid station, or a pastime of giving good wishes to the village children and putting the torch in the hearth.
For that alone, everyone truly loved her.
I knew it was a rare thing to say and do in the upper classes.
I also knew that she was particularly generous towards commoners, and that she could not do anything she didn’t like.
However, the people showed sincere affection for the Crown Princess just because she was of royal blood.
I didn’t care how naive and clumsy she was.

On the other hand, his feelings for Sneijder seemed closer to awe than love.
“The Count.”
“·················ogue.”
“Count Roy?”
Arnault was skeptical of Archduke Kamingha’s decision to join hands with the Crown Princess.
Although he helped the old man’s operation, he doubted how far a man who had spent his entire life in a cage could fly.
But people may be aware of it unconsciously.
The instinct of those who have been driven to the bottom for a long time may have been the first to realize.
The fact that the leader who will protect them until the end is the Crown Princess, not Sneijder.
“·················ogue.”
“The twelfth apostle.”
Startle. Arno immediately looked away.
Suddenly, Sneijder’s men were standing next to him. The man clicked his tongue inwardly.
As long as she is alive, the current reality is that she cannot even think comfortably.
I have no regrets for the role I took, but being a spy was so exhausting.
“What’s going on?”
“The Duke wants to throw away the Count’s wine.”
“Location is.”
“It’s Franken.”
“·················ogue.”
Arno wrinkled his eyes as if he couldn’t understand.
The woman was waiting for his answer with a blank expression on her face.
Interest would never explain anything unless he asked first.
It was the signature of the Sneijder family.
“Did an accident happen?”
“no.”
“Then it’s even more difficult to accept. Hasn’t the salt swamp been used for a long time? Because of the geographical advantage, there would be no reason to leave.”
‘Ting!’ A silver coin jumped out of the man’s fingertips.
The woman silently watched his play, and after a while, gave an answer like a sigh.
“It’s kind of cheating.”
“Did you see anything caught? It’s rare, isn’t it? to whom?”
“·················ogue.”
‘Ting, ting, ting!’ The silver coin worked tirelessly.
As a cardinal of the air attribute, he has been faithfully carrying out Duke Sneijder’s operations with an astonishing stigma until now.
He had a lot of questions, but the Duke regarded him as a very good asset.
It was because he could easily run out and die at any time, so he didn’t have to deal with the aftermath, and once he did his job, he succeeded.
The woman, who was silent for a moment, spoke. In any case, Count Roy was the master’s ‘apostle’.
It would be right to provide the necessary information.
“…before the battle resumes, Statia’s secret room will be closed.”
“That was unexpected.”
Indeed, the Empire seemed to have discovered the traces of the rock castle.
It looks like we’ve crossed the halo mist.
“So we need noise everywhere. The swamp is just one of them.”
“I did.”
“Your master has the following numbers. It does not mean that there is no big deal just because one storage is gone.”
“I see. I obey the command of the master.”
It was an embarrassingly clear answer.
The woman frowned and raised her head.
The circlet wrapped around the man’s forehead was glistening in the sunlight.
He turned to her and tilted his head. The cool eyes drew a line.
“Do you have more to say?”
“······no.”
The opponent bowed politely and walked away.
Arno ignored the throbbing headache and captured his expression.
And this time, I continued thinking about the salt swamp.
‘Ting!’ Eunhwa drew a parabola again.

Heh heh heh heh heh…
“Serenite.”
The shock was over.
“Haha, whoa…”
It was overdone and terrible. For a while, I shook my head and closed my eyes tightly.
It felt like a brush that fell into a bucket of water.
My son-in-law was all dyed with dark paint, his ears were drenched, and his eyes were spinning round and round, and he lost his mind.
I should get off the boat right now and do something, but I can’t breathe well.
However, he couldn’t run away somewhere while screaming at the whale whale.
The startled heart was beating and beating at random.
In the midst of this, he grabbed a strand of reason and locked the ether firmly.
It wasn’t the first time I’d seen a body.
But a sight like this deserves a psychological blow to everyone.
“Serenite.”
I mean, I was just an ordinary office worker.
“Whoa, ha ha…”
“Jesse.”
flinch. It was then that my eyes became a little clearer.
He managed to close his ragged chin and slowly looked up at the man.
The orange eyes under the mask were shining like a guide.
Finally, the world was written down in my mind.
Behind him, Ga-in was the first to leave the ship.

On the back of his pale neck, there were blue veins.
She, too, seemed to have barely suppressed the shock. I swallowed my saliva and took the oar.
little by little, little by little. As a result, I was able to see the corpses beneath the surface of the water again.
White as marble, as peaceful as sleeping. wavy hair.
Lips tired of purple…
“·················ogue.”
“Can you walk?”
No, I don’t have any strength in my brother’s legs. If I touch it right now, I feel like I’m going to vomit up gastric juice.
“······Absolutely. He is the one who has completed his military service.”
21 months. strike twice.
“·················ogue.”
“You haven’t heard of it yet?”
“I think it depends on you. soldier.”
I was so messed up, he whispered a joke for some reason.
I smiled and got up from my seat.
He stumbled slightly, but he quickly grabbed the prince’s robe and avoided falling.
The sentinel, who stood like a reaper on the water’s edge, looked at us quietly.
All around it was a dark blue light, and the part where the opponent’s face was supposed to be was black like a sewer.
I felt so threatened that I almost said hello.
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
However, what was needed now was silence, not chatter.
We believed and moved like a rock in the robe that ‘clouded our presence’.
-Tump, Todd, Todd…
And while following Christel ahead, he never looked back.
Lofi was kind, hiding under the prince’s cloak and moving quietly.
I tried like crazy to only think positive thoughts.
When you get back, feed Charlemagne and Doria lots of delicious vegetables.
Hug the red pandas for a long time and, if possible, make a cat tower for Lofi.
By sending a long letter to Master and friends…
-Cheolkong, Cheolkong!
The balloon that was biting its tail exploded, and her eyes lit up.
It was because the door was closed again from behind.
The stone building connected to the swamp was still damp and dark.
There were no magic lights, and sparse torches were lit against the scaled walls.
The place we entered seemed to be underground. A wide waterway continued endlessly beyond the black tunnel.
A passage full of dead bodies.
“·················ogue.”
“Don’t stop.”
The prince whispered to the back of his head.
I nodded quickly and moved forward.
-Ttobak, Ttobak, Ttobak…
-Tick, tick, tick…
From the arched doors on all sides, people in black robes rushed out.
Some were tall and some were tall.

On the other hand, there were also very small and fragile ones.
They were all wearing half-masks, so they couldn’t see their faces.
However, it was very reluctant to see everyone moving in one line reverently with their hands together.
The smell of rotting vibrated in the air.
I didn’t want to remember the bad scene, but I had no choice but to feel upset.
There was no choice.
– Again. again. Again, again, again, and again…
We cut it out as naturally as possible.
I was nervous about being dragged out, but fortunately no one thought of the group as strange.
The stiff neck that had been stiffened slightly loosened.
I didn’t know that a simple ‘reconnaissance’ would be so dangerous and frightening.
But when not? Ga-in was still the ‘main character’ of Toegye-gong.
I accept all aspects of her as more truth than reality, but there are things that have not changed.
This was a kind of formula that was maintained even if the world line changed.
For example, the case in which she is entangled always grows on a larger scale.
The journey is not going to end easily. At the same time, the fact that he is strangely kind to her…
“Do not rush. Everyone will be able to enjoy the blessings of the Lord.”
Sometimes they serve huge rice cakes.
“Come in one minute at a time.”
It was a voice whose gender and age could not be determined.
He was standing alone in front of the room at the end of the hallway, holding a blue lamp.
A flock of robes moved as gentle as sheep following a shepherd.
Ga-in glanced back at me and nodded his head sadly.
I didn’t know what it meant, but I nodded too. Yes. I trust Mr. Gain.
– Tok Tok
“excuse me.”
Then, Ga-in spoke to the person in front of him. I never agreed to this!
“·················ogue.”
Whoa, the person in front is looking back!
“I’m here for the first time today, because I don’t know the rules. Are we going to see ‘Master’ now?”
what? What is the main character’s guts?
“It is similar.”
Then the voice of a young man returned. I quickly covered my mouth with my sleeve.
will this happen? this will happen!
“It is a time to embrace the grace that the Lord has given us.”
“Grace?”
“yes. Ether pouring.”
“Then the lord,”
“aaa…!”
It’s a surprise! I reflexively took a step back and collided with the one behind me.
The prince let out a low moan, but that wasn’t what mattered now.
A woman came out of the room at the end of the hallway…
“Ahhh! aww! got strength Divine power!”
He opened his eyes and stretched out his arms towards the sky.
At first glance, she seemed crazy and drunk.
He just looked like a person who was drenched in ecstasy.
The prince immediately sensed something and stretched out his arm in front of me.
It was a posture to defend against an attack.
“Uh-huh! Ha ha ha ha ha!”
– Hurr!
A flame rose from the woman’s right hand, unable to control her joy.
It was a very unstable color.
Beyond the flames that repeat red, blue, and then pale…
“I have received divine power!”
-Shoot!
A stream of water began to pour from her left hand.
The three of us couldn’t move and stood nailed in place.
When people are too startled, they momentarily lose their language, and this is the case now.
I forgot how to blink and looked at the woman.
Then a drunken shout echoed through the hallway.
“The Lord has chosen me! me!”
‘Ha ha ha ha!’ She staggered and started moving in the opposite direction.
The group of robes was horribly unresponsive. The group was silent for a while.
-Jeojeok, sulky jjikjik…
Until the woman’s body, which had been dancing with joy, gradually collapsed.
