The first half is from Olga's point of view

 

The second half is the Demon King's army.

 

At this time, we were on our way to the plains in a horse-drawn carriage.

It was Rose and Usato who were moving the carriage, and even though Usato was reluctant to do so, he was a little relieved that he seemed to be able to build a relationship of trust with Rose.

 

Outside the carriage were many armed soldiers. There are about 1,500 knights who have trained to fight against the Demon King's army.

 

The demon tribes, which make up the majority of the Demon King's army, have physical abilities and magical powers that are incomparable to humans. Even if we are outnumbered in reports, we cannot let our guard down. This is understood by all those who go to the battlefield.

 

As for why we are the only ones in the carriage, the story is simple. In order not to accumulate fatigue for those of us who play an important role on the battlefield. I thought Rose would turn down the offer...... It may be the result of being careful because I am weak.

 

Seven people sit in the carriage, including his sister Uluru and five tongs.

The inside is surprisingly spacious and you don't have to feel cramped...... It's supposed to be.

 

"It's been a long time since I've played a real battle."

"Hehehe, blood is oozing."

 

「......」

"Brother?"

 

Sister, don't you notice the strangeness of this space?

As was the case last time, before a battle, the Tongs always start talking to their colleagues with a smile on their faces to boost their morale.

 

"Speaking of which, what are the tongs talking about?"

"Uh-huh...... That's ......."

 

My sister, who was sitting on the side of the road, couldn't seem to hear the tongs' conversation, perhaps because it was drowned out by the sound of the carriage. Can we call this a blessing or not?

 

"Not at all, the Demon Lord's army is going to catch us."

"Gehahaha! Their faces have a bad habit and they don't have a lot of power!

And since you have a sister, you don't have to be scared!"

"They're unhappy, too!

 

「......... They say we can't be defeated by the Demon Lord's army."

"Hmm, what else?"

 

Are you still listening...... Sometimes I am disgusted by my sister's purity.

 

"Hey, let's compete, see who can get the most injured people?"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh This isn't a game.'

"You don't have to be told what to do, but you know!

『...... Motivation is certainly important...... Hah, okay, let's go for a ride! Let's see who can come out the best!"

 

「......... He says he will definitely help those who are injured."

"You're saying things that don't look good."

 

If you know, don't ask......

And Alec. It's not something that comes to the wounded, it's something that comes in. ...... It would be a waste of time, though.

But their success is immeasurable. In the blink of an eye, he threw the wounded who were screaming in fear into the base, and the next catch was ...... They run to the battlefield to find the wounded. They are truly martyrs...... In a sense, he is the strongest soldier.

When I suddenly turned my gaze to my sister, I saw my sister listening to something with her ear against the wall.

 

"What are you listening to?"

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

「......」

 

I think it's okay to tell me...... Following in my sister's footsteps, I also listened and heard a faint voice in front of me. It's probably the voices of Rose and Usato.

 

「...... Eavesdropping is not good, is it?"

"Well, I know, but I'm kind of curious."

 

I understand the feeling, but I don't think that's a good idea.

 

"There's no chance that Rose-san and Usato-kun will ever have that kind of relationship, you know, unnecessary curiosity will destroy you."

"Brother, I don't understand the heart of a maiden at all."

"B...... Woman?"

「.........」

 

- I was surprised that my sister of my age had a maiden heart, but I was distracted by that surprise and glared at me with jito eyes. I'm sorry, I'm in a bad mood. Even before the war, .......

 

"I was trying to distract myself from the tension...... Your brother is really dull."

"I'm sorry......

"If you do that, you'll be stuck!"

 

Certainly...... When I am confronted with an unexpected situation, I lose my body. It was the same when the Demon King's army attacked before. His legs were shaking and he was frightened in front of the wounded people who were being carried in the stream. I was the only one who could heal it, and I desperately fulfilled my work while supporting my heart that was about to break with only such a sense of mission and heavy responsibility.

- This time, she feels unworthy of letting her sister carry that burden...... But at the same time, I was relieved that I wasn't alone.

 

"What's the matter, suddenly shut up ......?"

「...... Haha, it's nothing."

 

I can't keep myself clean all the time.

It's hard to be alone, and that's how everyone feels. Just like I did...... He's the same way. That's why he asked for her.

 

"Usato-kun, you're ......."

 

No, this is not something I should be involved in carelessly.

I'm not going to be able to do it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Three days have passed since the bridge was destroyed.

The bridge, which was nearing completion, was easily destroyed and had to be rebuilt from scratch.

Amira grits her teeth at the unexpected turn of events.

 

"C'mon...... How long will it take?!"

"At Dawn Tomorrow ......"

"Hurry up!"

 

The words of her helpless subordinate scorch her body with anger that usually wells up. Gradually, with a self-deprecating smile, he begins to speak to himself as if mocking himself.

I was aware that I had made such a blunder. If I had kept a close eye on the opposite bank, I could have prevented the bridge from being destroyed, but I was in despair at myself for not taking such a simple measure.

 

"Morale is also down...... The advance was also greatly delayed...... I'm disqualified as the commander of the Third Corps."

"I'm sorry, can I go home now, I'm tired."

"Shut up, I don't have time to worry about you right now......"

 

While complaining, he throws words of rejection helplessly at the black-armored knight who comes closer.

Even in front of her, who is clearly depressed, the black knight, who still does not lose his attitude, sits on the spot in a depressed manner.

 

"Well, I wonder if you will be forced to wait in a place like this...... I'd be gone a long time ago if it wasn't for the orders of the Second Corps Commander."

"Who would send a sad and rude person like you to his subordinates, even though it was because the commander of the First and Second Corps sent you, the elite of the elite of the elite."

 

The Black Knight is not a subordinate of Amira's legion, but a soldier sent from the Second Legion.

The reason why I was sent was "to gain experience", and it was obvious that it was just a pretense, but there was no reason to refuse, so I allowed to enter.

 

"Hmm, you can't accumulate experience by repeating useless battles...... Well, I don't mind because they say they'll give me a lot of rest when this march is over."

"That slacker...... If you have time to give your subordinates a day off, do what you can do...... Whew."

 

There is this subordinate and there is that boss.

The Second Legion Commander that Amira knows is a bonkura demon who doesn't even do his job. A pathetic guy as the same corps commander.

But even his subordinates must be competent. Even such a guy has the ability and rare magic that is said to be undefeated in the unit.

 

「...... Hah, that's enough. Tomorrow, as soon as the bridge is completed, we will begin our march. You will be able to slay the enemy with Basilinak. The role of raising morale that has fallen ...... I'll take care of it."

"Huh."

"Answer me firmly."

 

As if refusing to talk further, Amira herself leaves the Black Knight's side and goes to direct the construction of the bridge.

The Black Knight, who had been watching his back on the ground, still collapsed to the ground with a movement that showed no sign of motivation.

 

「...... . Isn't the fight just an attack on its own and ending on its own...... Such an ornamental sword--"

 

He tosses the sword at Karan and his waist to the ground.

The folly of messing with a sword, which can be said to be the pride of a swordsman, if Armira had been here, she might have been furious, but there is no appearance of her here.

 

"It's always boring, oh depressing...... It's a good laughing stock to slay the enemy."

 

The armor that covers the Black Knight flickers like a flickering flame. The figure wearing it, which is biologically fluid as if it were not armor, looks at his hands and smiles faintly at the mouth that is exposed from the armor.

 

"I don't have the power to wipe out my enemies...... It's stupid, the Demon King, the Legion Commander, the Demon Clan, the humans, everyone...... Aha

 

From the neat mouth that is exposed, he laughs as if he has been touched.

It is not a figure that can be called a knight in a flattering way. The appearance of wearing a pitch-black sludge-like substance that shimmers strangely is like --

 

"It doesn't work for me."

 

It was a demonic figure.

It's a boss character for the time being.

I'm a little sick for some reason, but .......
