695 Missing Talent, Part 74 - Strategist

"I'll ask you again, Louis. What's the purpose of coming to this fort?

"... there are a number of suspicions about this battle. A number of suspicious substances were carried into this fort in particular. The eagle just followed the flow."

"Then why did Lexus attack this fort on purpose? You could have just infiltrated, right?

"As you infiltrate, you're just making a dime. If you keep your enemies' heads in line, you'll get a lot of gratuity out of Vesel. Plus, I can blur this fort's defense. No matter how strong we are, if there is any demon king involved, it is not enough for us to think about doing it alone.

Most importantly, I don't think our client's general cares about this fort. "

Many put their faces to the words of Lexus, but Rhine and Alphilis were convinced. If the battle can be ended with an individual's ability to fight, the Lexus method is best. If there is no one in command to wage war, the war will stop. All too often, the commander who loses will be decapitated. Lexus is well aware of that fact. That's because his anecdote tells the story.

But aside from that, there were a number of footsteps. And screaming from across the fort. When the Alphilis and the others reassembled their swords, it was a giant human-shaped object that appeared before them. The shapes were but the colors were too white, and the faces were far from people. I have a nose, mouth and eyes, but they were all called numbers and good shapes, completely different from people's. Its brown eyes, which lay their hands on the top of the three-story building and glanced at the sleigh and face of it, were so much the same as human beings, but it was therefore unnecessarily creepy.

"Big."

"Sure, I don't need such a big friend."

"Even the sword of Atai needs to figure out where to aim..."

Rosetta's sword is an easy size for a person to break, but it doesn't work that way when it becomes such a giant monster. Can it be that it breaks the flesh and bones of such a huge subject, although they make up for the missing part in Fenna's sorcery? Plus, if a demon that size eats it, how could Rosetta be fatally wounded with a single blow, albeit rugged?

When everyone hesitated to know what to do, they clinged forward so that the monster could be thrust into something. And now obviously a monster thrusting into the ground to be thrust. Behind it, two or three more monsters of the same size begin to appear. Only the contours were the same, but the colors and faces were all different.

"Wow, wow..."

"What the hell. Where did all these people hide?

"It must be that building. But obviously I also don't feel the building is the right size..."

"Stupid, these people were nowhere! It was only recently that the building was also sealed off. It's not even a month yet!

Evden, who I've been calling on, gave me a golden voice. The Alphilis and the others thought he was a cool man, but just how things went beyond his tolerance. Ebden was disturbed.

It was Alphilis who asked calmly.

"Who did you occupy over there after all?

"... it's Master Grants."

"Is Pfeiffer over there too?

"I don't know!

"No, you'll be there"

It was Ozdoba who responded instead of Ebden. He was in trouble again, too. But he was not as anxious as Evden, or the work of the year. Or are you not following your head to the seriousness of the expansion? Either way, Ozdova was posing in the same wind as usual.

"It was Master Pfeiffer who ordered me in advance not to enter that compartment. Besides, the night raid last night, that one was going to this fort with patience. You'll still be there."

"What are you hiding?

"I really don't know that either. I've never been informed of anything of the essence of the country's growth, Commander."

Ozdova answered, not sad, not just angry. Alphilis intuited. Neither has this Ozdoba been informed of anything. A gripping right fist tells the story of his remorse. What was that remorse directed at?

"... I believe you. Retreat the likely survivors from this fort."

"What about that?

"We'll have to do it. We've fought before."

"Though -"

Larna looks at him calmly. Sure, I've dealt with demon kings before, but I've never seen anyone in this form. Probably created by the black magicians, but then none of them are a glimmer. This is an already exhausted situation with many unknown enemies. To be honest, it is a rather painful occasion to want to withdraw even now.

I guess Alphilis feels the same way. Although it is superficially strong, yesterday's battle alone was quite limiting. Instead of still showing his expression, he even looked blue.

"(Fighting is honestly tantamount to suicide. Alfi, are you sure you want to do this?

Larna thought on the inside, but Alphilis was skipping the instructions early in the arrow succession.

"Fly Tasha into the sky and look for a way out. I'll have the soldiers lead us to a place where we're going to leave. Renatica secures Pfeiffer's stature. I don't want my employer to die. Fenna, Venn let those who can't fight get away, and Olli leads half the way to cover this one. Rosetta, Rhine and Larna continue here"

"You're healthy to deal with people you don't know what to do in this situation."

Louis laughed when he looked at Alphilis all the time. The grin was never a mockery, but it seemed frightening.

"The reason I'm so obsessed with this request isn't that I have an edge or a duty to my clients either. Why would you do that?

"There's a reason to focus. I fought last night and found out that the enemy is getting ready. We no longer have time to lose. Even if that's where we die, we don't have the respite to choose. I just have to keep winning in any adverse situation. That's Louis, I'm sure you, too, no, they're all the same thing. It's just that nobody understands, and we just don't have time to know."

"Hmm, I'll say something funny -"

Louis remembered Valsas all the time. He's a more intuitive guy than Alphilis, but Valsas sometimes leaks the same thing all the time. Louis felt that there must really be something about those he admitted to saying the same thing.
