376 374 What are the consequences of the war?

The knights came on the spot after an explanation to all of the Black Cat tribes had been completed. Apparently, he overheard a group of black cats crying.

"There was a call that something was going on..."

"Hey, what happened?

"Is there someone in charge?

Apparently, other evacuees called the knights. Well, you wonder what happened.

When the village chief let the knights know what was going on, their gaze turned to Fran. However, that is not how you look at the culprits of the noise. Instead, he let his eyes shine and looked at Fran.

"Are you the Black Thunder Princess!

"We've heard rumors."

It seems that Marmano, Lord of Gringoat, and Meir, who visited the city some time before we returned, told us all about Fran's martial arts.

Fran was asked to do so by the knights and was to head to the Lords' Hall. You had a bit of trouble because many beasts who saw Fran on the road would harden, kneel, and start worshipping on the spot.

Rumors of Princess Black Thunder are apparently widely known among Gringoat beasts. Hi, I wish the Black Cats had gone around preaching the beauty of Princess Black Thunder like missionaries.

Further information brought by Meir seems to have also known the story of Princess Black Thunder taking the lead in the annihilation of the Warcraft, saving lives and protecting the kingdom of the Beasts. In the meantime, it was natural that if the evolutionary Black Cats walked, they would be able to identify themselves in no time.

As soon as he reached the Lords' Hall while being dropped off by the inhabitants of Gringoat, he was transferred to the reception room, where he was able to meet with the Lords' Marmano.

During the war, that means he looks brave in heavy armor. You're not like the Negrije I saw when I met you the night of the Warcraft raid.

"Welcome, Princess Black Thunder!

"Mmm."

"Your work has been appreciated by Her Royal Highness the Princess! Thank you for saving Gringoat."

"Because I just wanted to protect my people"

"Still, we are certain that our city has been saved. Like kicking over 10,000 herds of warcraft and annihilating evil people!

Apparently Meir told me a lot of exaggeration. Sure we've stopped a bunch of 10,000 warcraft and defeated them, but what Marmano heard seems to contain a lot of exaggeration and beautification.

Speak with your eyes open about the Fran defensive line Marmano asked Meir. Whose hero is it to slay and kill a thousand warcraft in one swing and defeat ten thousand warcraft in one magic blow? Isn't it hard to have a godsword?

"No, the poor figure of Princess Black Thunder rising in tears for her countrymen, trembling in terror, in front of the mighty warcraft! You wanted to see it in person!

Whose story is it? I'm not significantly wrong, but do you feel I'm not talking about Fran? Meir loved Fran. I guess I exaggerated and made him listen.

And Marmano bowed his head deeply.

"Thanks to your hard work, Gringoat is not the only one. My country was saved. Let me thank you again."

"As I said earlier. I didn't do anything special."

"Ha ha. If you're not special, you can't even reward my men. Do you mind? You did an amazing thing. I'm not asking you to grow, am I? But the handle is as a handle, I'm not exactly aware of it. Otherwise, you could make extra enemies."

Marmano, suddenly taken seriously, advises me so with a serious voice. But there's a point in what he says.

Fran didn't do anything to himself. Wouldn't it be hard for other soldiers and knights to get a reward with their chests up if they just said they did what was normal and received no praise or anything?

Besides, Marmano is a pleasant man, so no problem, but some nobles must be offended by Fran's attitude. I may not have to hate being somewhat more handy than being poorly sucked at those opponents.

Because people are people who measure others by their own behavior. The aristocracy would be less alert to the rating of an easy-to-manipulate adventurer of the year, who would be on track if praised, than a thousand creepy girls with no greed and no idea how to manipulate them.

"Mm-hmm. Okay."

"Really! No, no, I'm sorry. Suddenly, something like a sermon."

"Yeah. Thank you for me"

"Princess Black Thunder seems to have a large vessel too! No, that's just great!

"Too much praise"

"Ha ha. If it had been sandwiched from the north, our country would have been in a critical situation. Preventing one of them and destroying the dungeon to annihilate the Warcraft is an unparalleled feat in this war. Her Royal Highness Princess Black Thunder, Her Royal Highness Nemea and Lady Chiara are not surprised to be called heroes of the Redemption. If there were any who would have served, would there have been two generals who had worked the lion's speed on the southern front?"

Southern Front. That story bothers me. I'm also curious about the two active generals, but what happened to winning and losing before that? There is no dark color on Marmano's face, so I don't think he lost......

"What happened to the battle in the south?

"It's over with our country's great victory!

"Are you done yet?

Haven't we been here about a week since the war? Besides, we should have put in quite a bit of a big army with each other. I don't think it would be strange if the war continued on a monthly or yearly basis.

"Sometimes the original power of war is different. The Beast Nation has prevailed in terms of the number and quality of troops mobilized."

"But I heard the Bashar kingdom is a great magician."

"Well, sure. In terms of magic, we are losing to the Bashar kingdom for the quality of magicians, the ability to develop magic tools."

The magician's guild of the Bashar kingdom must have made the magician's props for long-distance calls. Maybe he's developing a lot of other useful tools. If so, can't you say that even if you win by the number of soldiers, you can win overwhelmingly?

That's what I was thinking, but general soldiers are too weak to capitalize on their magical advantage at all.

"What do you call it, there's racial differences, but I guess there's more to consciousness than that."

"Awareness?"

"Yes."

Of course, compared to beasts and humans, beasts are more combative. But that's not all, they say, there's a big difference in the consciousness of soldiers at the ends of both countries.

"There are many standing soldiers in our country, but if it is war, we can also gather soldiers from peasants and others"

Well, that's a natural story in this world. Instead, the main job of standing guards and knights is to maintain law and order during peacetime and to crusade the Warcraft, and they are overwhelmingly understaffed to wage war on their own.

"But there is already a difference between our country and the Bashar kingdom from the time of conscription"

"What difference?

"The Kingdom of Bashar sends an official called a conscript to each village to force them to gather soldiers. In each village, they say they are reluctant but unable to defy the country and offer soldiers."

It would be natural. No one wants to send their family to dangerous battlefields.

"But you don't have to do that in the case of the Beast Nation. Most of the time, volunteers will gather on their own from the surrounding villages. Some of them come with the feeling of going hunting. Rather, it's harder to return too many volunteers."

That's a fighting people. The general public seems to be fierce inside.

"The main force in both countries is semi-farmers, but soldiers in the Bashar kingdom consider themselves peasants. And he thinks he was forced to bring him to a fight he doesn't even want to get out of. But the soldiers in our country - especially those in the pioneering villages - feel that they are soldiers, usually making the necessary supplies for their stations."

I see, are soldiers overwhelmingly different in their will to fight? Moreover, it seems that the soldiers of the Beast Nation have not usually lacked training either. The Black Cats were considered particularly vulnerable, so they had nothing to do with such an atmosphere......

I guess other races feel exactly like soldiers, even ordinary people.

"Certainly the demonic props of the Bashar kingdom will be excellent. But in the end, the difference between soldiers is the difference between wars. Well, like this one, it can get behind you..."

I guess that means there's no certainty in the war.

"But on the contrary, it also means that if there are no odd measures, we can't do anything about the difference in power. As soon as we got word that the invasion from the north had failed, the Royal Bashar Army collapsed."

He was active in that battle, apparently by the earth magician, who is also famous in the kingdom of the Beasts, and the current chief of the White Rhinoceros. During a heavy battle until reinforcements arrived, he said he sustained his border with widows and inflicted pain on the Royal Bashar Army, which was to withdraw.

I guess that means good people, not just as warriors, but also as commanders.
