Episode 1047. The Untouchable
Hirhera Garrison.
Central command and control barracks.
The heated meeting between the Escatos Kingdom Army Command and the Baylem Kingdom Army Command subsided over time.
It was because the two kingdoms had to work together, so they reached an agreement in an appropriate way.
Even so, the atmosphere was not friendly.
The Kingdom of Escatos tried to establish the Duke of Escatos, a sword master, as the top commander of the garrison, but it was canceled due to opposition from the Kingdom of Baylem.
The Kingdom of Baylem used a trick to provide support, but the Kingdom of Escatos would not allow it.
An hour passed by in such fruitless discussion.
Count Colin Strong, vice general of the Kingdom of Escatos, who served as the moderator, looked around the audience and said.
“Then, the Kingdom of Escatos and the Kingdom of Baylam will take turns monitoring the rift. So, let’s begin our discussion of troop deployment and operations. Currently, one company of the Kingdom of Escatos is monitoring the rift in 3 shifts every 3 days. As you can see, it was because the entrance to the rift was narrow and it was difficult to station only one company. The company on the front line comes down to the garrison, inspects it for six days, and is put back into operation. I understand that the formation of the Baylem Kingdom Army is the same as our Escatos Kingdom Army. If the two kingdoms are deployed separately, 6 shifts of 3 days are possible, so 15 days can be used to reorganize.”
Then Count Max Chade, Vice-General of the Kingdom of Baylem, intervened.
“How about operating as usual, but with one company of our Baylem Kingdom Army supporting you? I think that would be much more stable than having one company alone against the Witchbeast.”
A bitter smile appeared on Count Colin Strong’s lips.
That remark was the same as saying that the Baylem Kingdom Army would be dedicated to support.
It was a ridiculous claim if you knew how much damage the Yeonji Army deployed on the front line of the rift suffered.
Count Colin Strong glanced at the Marquis Bernardo.
just as expected?
The Marquis shook his head excitedly with a shocked face.
Count Colin Strong asked Count Max Chade back.
“It sounds like the Baylem Kingdom Army will be dedicated to providing support, is that correct?”
“I didn’t mean that, but I was just saying that two companies are better than one.”
“If the support mission is to be alternated between the Escatos Kingdom Army and the Baylem Kingdom Army, it seems like a good proposal. How would you fix that by taking turns supporting?”
“Well, that would be nice, but unit management is becoming too complicated... I’ll withdraw the proposal. It would be better if we just run our own way.”
“Then, do you agree with Baylem Kingdom on 3 days and 6 shifts?”
When Count Colin Strong asked back as if to confirm, Marquis Letona Ground, general of the Royal Army of Baylem, spoke briefly.
“Don’t do that. If there are no other important agendas, I hope to move on to other topics.”
When the general of the Kingdom of Baylem stepped forward, Marquis Bernardo, a general in the Kingdom of Escatos, stepped forward.
“Let’s leave the fine-tuning of crack monitoring to the practitioners. Is there anything you want to tell me?”
“Why did the Imperial Corvo Magic Corps suddenly withdraw? Do you mean to entrust management of the ice wall to our northern kingdoms?”
In fact, it was a somewhat absurd situation for the Kingdom of Baylam, which had no interaction with the Corvo Magic Corps.
In addition, the situation around him was dark because he was in a fierce internal battle over the succession to the throne.
Marquis Bernardo fully considered the position of the Allied Kingdom of Baylem and explained.
“There seems to be friction between the Southern Kingdoms and the Empire. That’s why they say they are deploying the Imperial Army at the border of the Southern Kingdom. I understand that the Empire’s Corvo Martial Corps is also being mobilized for a show of force against the southern kingdoms.”
“Did something like that happen? It’s been quiet for the past fifty years. Why is there friction between the Southern Kingdoms and the Empire?”
“I don’t even know that much. If you find out about it in the Kingdom of Baylem, I would appreciate it if you could share the information.”
Marquis Bernardo skillfully avoided commenting.
The Marquis of the Ground looked at the Marquis Bernardo with a disapproving face.
‘joy! If you’ve been together in Hirhera up until now, there’s no way you wouldn’t know.
“yes?”
“Your staff member said earlier that moonshine is being circulated in the garrison. Is that real?”
“It is true.”
“to? Haven’t you ever seen knights drink moonshine when you were in Alpha Company?”
“haha! It must have been because none of the 1st Platoon’s knights liked to drink.”
“I see. Who sells the moonshine?”
“Every company has soldiers who bring in alcohol through the back hole. They secretly buy from merchants and sell them.”
“ah! Are you among the soldiers? Aren’t merchants selling them?”
“Alcohol is prohibited from being brought into the garrison. That’s why they secretly buy and sell each other. Among the conscripts, there are many who have been involved in the moonshine trade in the territory.”
“There must be a soldier like that in our Rufus Company?”
“It will almost certainly be. It’s to the point where the soldiers fight among themselves over the right to sell moonshine. why? If you’re trying to crack down on moonshine in Rufus Company... I’d say it’s best not to touch it. Soldiers in Hirhera should have some breathing space...”
“Ouch! I am not that tight-knit.”
“Are you doing it because you need a drink?”
“It reminded me of my hometown.”
“ah!”
Belatedly, Baron Dennis Robin remembered that Baron Elio’s tribe had been annihilated.
“I have a bottle of first-class moonshine. Would you like?”
“If you do, I will be grateful.”
Elio greeted them politely.
The corner of Baron Dennis Robin’s mouth went up at his attitude.
In fact, from Alpha Company’s point of view, offering a box of moonshine would not be enough, but to be so grateful for a bottle!
“I will bring it to you after dinner tonight.”
“How much can I pay?”
Still, Elio said that he was a nobleman without even thinking about it.
“Is it worth it? I’ll just give it to you. How much help do you get from Rufus Company? If I take the money, the soldiers will curse me.”
“Ah yes...”
Elio did not decline.
My mouth was already salivating at the thought of the sake of another world.
***
North of the continent.
Wilderness Pagonomes.
I saw an ice castle in the middle of a huge ice forest untouched by humans.
The great hall of the castle.
The one seated on the throne said to Dylan Dunford, the warlock at the bottom of the stairs.
“Dylan. I have raised your level and taught you the now-disappeared ‘Barrier of Terminus’ and ‘Meteor Swarm’, but why is the north still quiet?”
“Great magnum opps. It was because the response of the Escatos Kingdom was unexpectedly quick. However, due to the barrier of Terminus, the rift is still widening. If the kingdom of Escatos becomes unmanageable, the northern part will automatically...”
“Attract the demons.”
“...”
At that moment, Dylan Dunford trembled.
No matter how much he is a warlock, it is not easy to deal with Tameion’s demons.
