BELLUM PRAESINTIA A Girl's Extraordinary Determination
After two weeks had passed, important news emerged. They did not hope this news would be good information.A man with quick steps paced among the room's floors, the sound of his footsteps reflecting the anxiety raging within his heart.Before he could meet Elisa, a door guarded by two guards had to be passed.These two guards, of course, posed some questions that needed to be answered."What do you want?""I want to meet Lady Princess; the information I bring now is very important!"Although it sounded convincing, it wasn't enough to make them believe easily.Moreover, they were instructed to be cautious about the presence of unfamiliar individuals, even in the same place; their faces were difficult to recognize."Why won't you let me in?""You have to tell us this first; what important information do you carry?""What!" Of course, his reaction was one of surprise, while he was in a hurry, now had to face such a situation again. "Can't you two just let me in? I want to meet Princess E
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Without You Realizing that the Power of Words is Real
Just a speech as small had already lifted the spirits of the people, making them more prepared for battle.However, there was still something unsettling, the main question of who they were facing. Elisa's words only stated this territory would be attacked and wanted to be conquered by the enemy.This information couldn't be contemplated, there was only one thing, the courage to protect what already existed."Perhaps they don't realize, they are being led into death right now!" Garlan gazed at the troops when those soldiers were chatting with great joy, recalling his days as a member of the old soldiers."Why are you just spacing out?" Endra tapped Garlan's shoulder, who seemed to be frozen in place for a while, not even noticing his arrival.In warfare, such behavior was something that should not be done. Being even slightly careless meant death could strike at any moment."The one you defended has given courage to all the soldiers!"Garlan's praise felt dull, and Endra's face looked
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Giving Trust to Strangers
Both sides continued on their respective paths, and it was Endra's group that arrived first, noticeably faster.Their progress was indeed faster, and the path they had taken was aligned with their intended direction.The border guards welcomed them with joy, standing in neat rows, looking at each other with pride."I am honored to meet you!" And, he was the leader of the troops here, responsible for commanding the troops in their current state.Endra nodded once and dismounted from his horse, followed by Garlan beside him."How is the situation now?" Endra asked."For now, the enemy troops haven't arrived yet, but the scouts we sent out haven't returned either. It's possible they've been killed."The man wore a sorrowful expression."What about the condition of the troops here? Are they ready for battle?" But, Endra dismissed the issue; he didn't want to rely solely on sentimental feelings."Well, there are about 200 troops here, and they are all ready for battle."Even though this st
BELLUM PRAESINTIA The enemy will not just retreat
"After you've said all that, do you plan to make them even more upset?"Garlan instantly met Endra on the watchtower, and the man's face had not turned away since earlier, as if he didn't want to miss observing everything in front of him."I didn't mean it that way! I just want everyone to get their fair share in this war! Do you think they can endure a battle like this?"What kind of answer should Garlan give? His thoughts had already admitted the bodies of the war officers would not be able to face the turmoil of the upcoming battle."So, if I lead a thousand troops, can I protect everyone's lives? Or can I achieve victory?"Endra's mouth was silenced by this question, his expectations for Garlan were indeed too high. All based on the experience and information absorbed by his mind, which imposed excessive responsibility on Garlan."I'm sorry, that's too much for you! I only consider you as the one most capable of enduring this situation, and at least a great war officer should lead
BELLUM PRAESINTIA THE FIRST DAY OF THE WAR THAT PROVES STRENGTH
Crash...With their full strength, they charged into the enemy formation, creating a storm of terrifying chaos.Attack after attack has taken place."So, the enemy troops are capable of this, quite surprising! General Norman must be getting even more irritated with this!" One of the troop leaders observed the situation. From the strength, he could guess the one leading this troop was no ordinary person.It wasn't just the enemies who were surprised; Garlan was also astonished by the actions of his leading troops.Their numbers had significantly dwindled due to the onslaught of arrows. Starting with 500 people, only 420 remained. Every life was precious for victory, and what they were doing was truly remarkable.Guided by Garlan, this troop had torn through the enemy formation, and shouts filled with excitement echoed.It was impossible for them to shoot arrows among their comrades in battle."Darn, so the enemy troops have such formidable abilities! Let's see how strong you are. I wan
BELLUM PRAESINTIA The Next Day's Battle Where You Have to Make Various Sacrifices
For one day had become a storm that crushed their hopes, a battle shameful enough for the Gandara troops.Norman's clenched fist hadn't stopped until now, his entire body eager to release the emotions that had taken root.The two remaining officers felt the tension in the air, knowing they wouldn't be able to provide comforting words to ease Norman's heart.They had witnessed how the enemy troops launched their attack, present to witness their comrades brutally killed."I didn't expect the enemy troops to put up such a resistance!" Uzabel made the statement.Norman's face wrinkled as he glared sharply at that man, ready to unleash his anger, but once again, he couldn't find the words to address this matter."They not only have General Endra as their weapon, but also capable officers who can put up a fight!" Another officer named Cervus agreed."What are you two talking about?" Norman naturally didn't like the sour looks on these officers' faces, his voice adding clarity to the tense a
BELLUM PRAESINTIA There Seems No Way To Escape From This
However, this is indeed a very difficult situation, and Garlan cannot imagine how long his troops will hold up against the continuous attacks from various directions."Damn... are they deliberately trying to keep us here?" However, Garlan has also realized the enemy's focus on this will make the physical condition of the main formation vulnerable to attacks. "I counting on you to carry out that task..."Crash...Two directions of attack rang in his ears, and Garlan tried to see where the source of these sounds was coming from.As the wind swiftly carried him, the sounds of tearing and the shouts of warriors filled the air.And when the bearers of these sounds appeared, they were two officers who had intentionally positioned themselves between Garlan."Finally, you won't be able to escape from here!" Cervus said confidently.On the other hand, Uzabel smiled eagerly, ready to strike at Garlan's neck."So, it seems these are the leaders of the troops surrounding us! From their previous a
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Although the two of them are not sure to defeat him...
It appears that Garlan no longer has a chance. On his right side, he might be able to deflect or avoid an attack, but on his left, there is an enemy ready to strike.This situation is unpredictable, as attacks could come from any direction and hit his body."Now you won't be able to escape," Uzabel said."Die!" Cervus yelled.Both of these individuals' weapons shifted in a way that allowed them to target Garlan.Swings...Clangs...But, what happened was not a cut to his flesh or body; it was merely the clashing of their weapons that revealed the true intensity of the situation.Garlan's figure, whom they intended to attack, had vanished from there. Or rather, that man had moved to a different location."What? Where is he?" Cervus tried to spot Garlan.He found Garlan, who had moved quickly.Crash...As he passed by a horse, causing it to neigh loudly, the two men were forced to dismount.Naturally, this moment infuriated both of them.They still couldn't believe Garlan could perform

Plans That Have Been Carefully Prepared
"She said that I must believe in the abilities within this body, which means I have to go back to the past..."The moment when one must sacrifice everyone fighting under his command, treating their lives as nothing more than tools to achieve victory.After becoming a minister, he gained a new understanding. The price of a single life was significant. Until now, he had considered lives as mere tools to attain victory.After a long time of forgetting this, he felt as though he was pushed back into his former wild spirit.No one can change this, and all time will converge at one point.Both sides appeared to have gathered with serious expressions, facing each other.Schlegel's troops wouldn't wait behind their fortress; they would directly destroy Switean's troops."What will you do this time?" Norsius asked with enthusiasm.It seemed the enemy was already starting to make their move, heading towards Liam's troops."Hehehe... so they're targeting me as their opponent? No problem, it's bo

On this extremely cold night, Garlan's face showed no sign of happiness.However, the lives of every soldier were precious; without them, this war would become even more challenging.It seemed the enemy troops were ready for attack.Rosa intentionally entered the tent to meet Garlan and found him sitting in front of a spread-out map.In reality, she feared that her presence might disturb his concentration, but she still wanted to meet with him.She began to tap softly, and when she was close enough, she said, "General..."Garlan slowly raised his head, the face of a girl he was familiar with, as he gazed at her nearly every day."What?""I apologize if I am interrupting your time, but I would like to discuss something...""Very well, please have a seat."An empty chair was occupied by the girl's body. It still felt awkward to be alone with Garlan in such a confined space. Even though there was no bed for intimacy, Rosa couldn't help but think about such things."So, what did you want

Prove Yourself With All Your Existing Abilities
"General Garlan, I understand! Even in this filthy world, there are still those who yearn for peace. It's true that peace must be achieved with bloodied hands! Only those who truly desire it will be ready to do it..."The soldiers observed Rosa's significantly different demeanor; she was more aggressive than before. Leading them, she charged at the enemy troops.With relentless strikes, she showed no signs of fatigue until they had reached the designated stopping point.The white-clothed man glared at them with resentment. "I didn't expect to encounter a disturbance here, but she's a woman, and she's already wounded facing that slave! She can't possibly be stronger than me!"Confidently, he drew his gleaming sword, and the sunlight made it look even more magnificent.However, it didn't mean much, as Rosa had experienced before. The wielder of a weapon mattered more, no matter how splendid the weapon appeared. If she regarded her opponent as much stronger, the sword was appropriate fo

Rosa quickly backs away, sensing unresolved danger.Lattham's face shows shock as he watches blood continue to trickle from his body. He uses his left hand to wipe his chest, and his palm becomes stained with fresh blood.His eyes start to be filled with memories of the past, with fires raging and blood everywhere. His hands bear fresh bloodstains from the woman in front of him."Astrid..."His passionate cry erupts in the midst of the battle, leaving those around him confused as to who he is mourning."Astrid? Who is that?" Rosa squints her eyes after witnessing a significant change in Lattham. "What happened to him?"slowly, Lattham lifts his head, and his eyes seem sharper than before, radiating an aura of hostility.The apparition transforms Rosa, turning the fully armored knight in front of him into a grinning adversary."I will kill you..."Quickly, he takes a step forward, and their swords swing simultaneously.Cracks...Until it touches the ground where Rosa stands, the dust s

"What is this..."The long chain binding the man's hands and feet spun and then charged toward Rosa.Spontaneously, Rosa leaped from atop her horse. Unfortunately, the chain bound her horse's legs and forcibly pulled it down.A chain reaction occurred when the soldiers following Rosa collided, and dust filled the air as a result of this incident.Fortunately, some of the soldiers at the rear had managed to stop due to the sudden incidents."What's happening?" a soldier asked. As he looked ahead, the dust revealed his comrades rolling on the ground, some with their bodies badly injured.Rosa, who had managed to evade the incident, could only gape at the crazed actions of the man."What is he doing? How can he do this, and why have the enemy troops suddenly kept their distance? What's happening here?""You won't know who you're dealing with; he's a long-imprisoned slave, and his wild disposition was his characteristic, Lattham..."Lattham's head lifted, uniquely, after his earlier actio

Rosa's decision to prove herself as the greatest female knight
Rosa needs to understand that using a fortress in warfare means defending within it; they can't just attack the enemy's troops directly.She already knows this from the lessons given, but she can't stand waiting for the enemy to attack."How long do I have to stay here? They've already started this war, their leaders should be responsible for what they've done..."She clenched her fists with all her might, but it was all in vain. She had to restrain the emotions inside her and wait for the right time.The soldiers there seemed much more useful than her, just watching like this was so boring, but most of the officers there were grateful not to plunge directly into the battlefield.Even in a situation like this, discussions about the plan were still ongoing, and it felt tiresome to discuss it."Now, the enemy is attacking with 700 people, which is much larger than the troops inside the fortress! The chance of winning is very small..." the leader troops warned."Of course, but if we just

It's too easy to feel like this is a win
They appeared surprised by the actions of the troops on top of the fort, their eyes quickly turned towards the torches intentionally used to illuminate the surroundings."Huh... do they think we're finished here? Well, we can use a bit of light to figure out our current location..."Vigilance continued as the fortress's lighting was still too dim."Leader, it seems that the enemy forces have been swept away by the attack," reported a soldier on top of the fortress.They couldn't see what was happening below, but from the visible body parts, it seemed like a large-scale massacre had occurred."So, they have indeed launched an attack!" Cold sweat dripped as he imagined a crazy action like that.Time could only be used to wait for morning; they couldn't move for the next few minutes.Remaining on high alert, when the sky began to lighten, they could finally assess their surroundings.Rosa, with her sharp eyes, observed the area and indeed saw many soldiers under her command."Are you all

An Attack That Was Perfectly Planned
"Of course, but we must not let them know about this attack! We have to strike when they believe the troops inside the fortress are just as before, only capable of defending against their attacks..." Rosa meant the most important factor, the enemy's reconnaissance scouts who were certainly ordered to monitor the fortress at various points.If they were to find out the troops inside the fortress were preparing to attack, the enemy would automatically shift to a combat-ready position."We don't know where the enemy's scouts are positioned, and, moreover, the nighttime will make our movements difficult," a weary-faced soldier pointed out."That's true, we don't know the enemy's troop locations, and, likewise, they can't confirm the attack we're planning. We need to observe first before they can execute that attack," Rosa replied.They began to understand, but there were still some incomplete details."So, who will lead the troops in the attack against the enemy?" the leader of the troop

Attitudes in Actions That Must Be Prepared to Take
"Hoam..."It's an annoying time. Rosa hasn't finished enjoying her sleep, but now she has to be in the room with the old men who look confused."This time they attacked us at night, targeting us when we didn't fight!" murmured the leader of the soldiers.It's indeed painful to be attacked when you want to rest.Rosa should be the one to mourn more. Her eyes blinked a few times to fight off drowsiness."Thanks to Miss Rosa's alertness, we didn't lose many soldiers!" praised one of the men.Unfortunately, Rosa didn't hear the praise clearly. Her head was down.Seeing no response, one of the men tried to wake her. "Miss Rosa!""Yes..."The man's tone was low, but Rosa's response was surprisingly strong, creating a hushed atmosphere.No one spoke for a few moments, watching this hilarious scene."Uh-oh... I've made a mistake! I don't want to return to the capital and face punishment, just like on my first day as a soldier.""Leader, if the enemy attacks again tonight, what should we do?"
