BELLUM PRAESINTIA Unexpected Troops, It Turns Out They Are
Before making a decision, Garlan needed a mature plan. There wasn't much he could do here, expect relying on the information provided by the soldiers regarding the enemy troops they would face.And, as witnesses to the previous two soldiers' summons were called into the room, they were given time to rest and recover their strength.The next day was the time to discuss this further.In the discussion room with Garlan, they had a special opportunity. They had often been led by this man, but had never made a significant contribution."Alright, you both are here for a reason. Before the enemy launches an attack, we need to know who we are facing. Can you two tell the troops what kind of enemy we are dealing with?"They were a bit confused about how to respond to Garlan's firm tone, but they couldn't afford to waste any more time. They quickly prepared to address this problem.One of them finally began to speak, "The enemy we faced last time was different from the usual. General had led us
BELLUM PRAESINTIA A Tough Figure Who Can Never Be Predicted
For Garlan, the small escape that he made was nothing more than a foolish act. From a distance, he stared firmly at the flag raised by the enemy troops."So you've chosen a place to stand your ground, quite interesting! But, at least choose a much larger territory to support your life..."Dapion was disappointed to learn that Horman was not an ally of Garlan. Indeed, the conflicts like this seem to be just small matters and not the concern of outsiders.But he remained convinced that the mysterious figure of Garlan had fled to that territory to hide and build a new power.Just when he was starting to feel disappointed, destiny led him to meet in a situation like this.The recent situations were too surprising for him to think of them as just ordinary enemy troops. He briefly considered this might be the enemy's strength and intended to end it all, but unfortunately, it wasn't that simple."Attack the enemy troops..."The order in question was not for the entire troops but rather for o
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Farewell to Colleagues Who Have Been Considered Opponents
It was a moment of deep silence as the sun slowly gave away to the darkness of the night.The enemy soldiers heard the trumpet signal to retreat, and without much thought, they began to move away from the lifeless Reval.Garlan dismounted from his horse, not giving any orders for the past hour. His gaze was fixed on the person he was sure of at this time, there was no mistaking it, the figure in his two eyes was Reval.All the memories of that time flowed through his mind, ending with the Reval's cold, lifeless gaze."Heh... this is ironic, but it's not a bad choice! I hope everything will be better tomorrow..." Dapion raised the corner of his lips. Although he didn't directly look at what was happening with Garlan, he could already imagine how the man looked at the moment.The loud sound of horse hooves started to draw Garlan's attention. The enemy troops were now moving away.It was never expected the enemy would provoke him like this, using comrades as opponents.Although Garlan ha
BELLUM PRAESINTIA The Long Awaited Duel
The soldiers exchanged glances and then nodded. They understood in this situation, there was no room for them to take action.Slowly, the circle expanded, giving those two knights more space to engage in a duel.Garlan positioned his sword, ready to strike, as he glared sharply at the person in front of him."Hehehe... I never thought you'd have the courage to face me again, especially after appearing so frightened before..."That wasn't true, but the condition had forced him to flee, leaving him with no choice.Maneus's horse charged towards Garlan, a proud smile on his face.Tings...Garlan wasn't foolish enough to remain silent. He quickly swung his sword.The impact was significant, causing Garlan's horse to lose its balance."Have you had enough to eat? Your body doesn't seem fit to withstand my attacks!"The humiliation was deep, but Garlan should not be provoked by his emotions.This incident revealed Garlan's vulnerability, which was a rare sight for the soldiers who witnessed
BELLUM PRAESINTIA This Is The End Of A Quite Long Fight
In the midst of these circumstances, the jokes Maneus heard were highly entertaining."How can you be sure you can defeat me?"Indeed, a knight would think twice before being able to defeat a Polearm user on horseback.The Polearm had a different mobility than a spear. Although it was long in shape, it was far more effective to use. Unlike a spear, which only had one movement, thrusting forward, the Polearm had a sharp sword-like blade at the tip. To use this weapon, need to swing it to the side like a sword, but, of course, it had the disadvantage of being relatively heavier.Only those with experience could unleash the full potential of this weapon, and for those who used the Polearm on horseback, it was considered something nearly perfect. Polearm users had the advantage of a much wider attack range than their opponents.Most people would think a thousand times before facing such an opponent, but that didn't matter. Garlan had faced people with high skills on horseback using the po
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Is the Attitude to This Matter Right
"Report..."This shout was really annoying to hear. Dapion turned to the source of the sound, wondering what had happened."What's going on?" That's what came out of his mouth as soon as the soldier arrived."G-General Maneus has been defeated..."His voice was so nervous in delivering the truth, but it could be heard clearly; this news of death instantly became a reality.The pain in his heart was a result of this information. He tried to deny what he heard, but once again, a distant voice reminded him of the truth.The passionate cheers were unbelievable if this was true."Damn, how could Maneus be defeated?"He alone can answer it; he had underestimated Garlan's power. The knight he had long made formidable could now be brought down by the enemy.Could he accept another fact? Many soldiers witnessed this event.The troops under Maneus's command tried to avenge the death of the great man, and a battle erupted instantly.But, they are nothing more than naughty chicks without a mother
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Next Plans Prepared by Both Sides
The air in this room was growing increasingly suffocating, forcing Dapion's spirit to waver, but it remained the same from the start; this man would not lower his head.He might be older and not have the extraordinary abilities of those around him, but when it came to faith, he wouldn't back down."I've witnessed it; the power possessed by the enemy is the help of a great general who once led a mercenary army known as the Black Dragon..."Various reactions were displayed by the people present, most of them wearing confused expressions. It was unexpected that a name long forgotten would reappear, especially at a time like this, and it made them wonder if Dapion was joking.No, it couldn't be considered a joke; the gaze in Dapion's eyes still reflected the fear of the Black Dragon's leader.A smart officer wouldn't think him a liar, especially Rafous, who had a firm expression to clear his mind."Are you sure that is indeed the leader of the Black Dragon?" asked a wise old man in a soft
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Defeating a Tough Opponent Doesn't Mean This Is Over
"Huh? Why are you so silent?" Garlan seemed to have ignored what Endra had just said, and especially when his gaze was directed to the side, something unpredictable might be happening.Endra annoyedly watched Garlan's attitude, even if he forced it, Garlan was not the type to admit to such things."Oh my, it seems I may have to find a way out of this problem alone..." He said resignedly."No, you might be overthinking it...""Huh? Why?" Endra asked in surprise, actually waiting for Garlan to respond to his statement."Maybe I can say that you are overthinking about it..."Endra became even more confused. What Garlan was saying made it seem like a much worse event was about to happen.Endra was so anxious that he tried to rethink all of this. From the beginning, it wasn't a good plan to attack such a large troop territory. So far, it seemed fine, but he didn't know how long it would go smoothly."Huh..." His head spun fast when thinking about this solution. He was confused about how to

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

This time the opponent has abilities that cannot be underestimated
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

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?"
