BELLUM PRAESINTIA After Victory, Now Onto Future Plans
"Yes, that's absolutely true! But, as we reached this point, many of the people's blood has been shed due to your selfish actions! And you know what they say, destroy everyone inside the palace, make them feel what we've been feeling!"The atmosphere turned dramatic, a killing aura emanating from the spectators who had witnessed this situation from a distance.Intentionally, these people were allowed to witness what was happening.They didn't like the policy of forcing them into a war, and many families had to suffer because of this decision. Resentment continued to build over time."Endra...""Yes!" Endra, who now spoke, said, "I saw you in Princess Elisa's territory, and when we decided to oppose the enemy's decision, you and your faction abandoned her! You easily regarded us as fools who wouldn't win the war, but after we came so far, you begged for forgiveness! We've sworn not to let the traitors go, and you won't escape this karma!"The Prime Minister couldn't say much, he sat th
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Building it requires a very long process
She arrived in the land that his sibling used to rule, although it had been years since she had set foot there.Yes, the scenery wasn't much different from before. Many people wore grim faces, and there were beggars everywhere. Poverty had truly become a common sight.Elisa even saw a forlorn girl sitting alone beside a prominent building, hoping for a miracle to solve her problems.After the victory, the main issue was, of course, rebuilding the economy.Wars could be fought in just a few days, but restoring what had been damaged would take years.Learning from the history she had read, Elisa could only accept this. Throughout her journey, she didn't want to avert her gaze from this cityscape; she wanted everything to be observed and remembered, as her current position still had little meaning.When she arrived at the palace, she was greeted by the people there. They honored Elisa as a queen should be honored, but in her heart, she understood that some might still harbor hatred from
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Conversations for Policy
"With you coming here, I'm sure your reasons have found some interesting free time!" Garlan teased.Endra could only sigh; he didn't come to argue with Garlan. A maniac who always worked tirelessly was indeed difficult for him to understand."At least, for now, there's time to relax these tired shoulders! Why don't you try doing the same?"Garlan became confused by all of this, almost forgetting that simple concept. He stared at his palm for a moment."Hahahaha..."Suddenly, Endra slapped his back, the pride evident on his happy face. "Don't think too seriously like this; you'll grow old quickly and won't have the opportunity to enjoy life."It did sound painful, but there was some truth in these words that made him willing to accept Endra's invitation to dine together.The atmosphere was much calmer than the last time they met before, the busyness kept interrupting. This time things were beginning to calm down, though not entirely.Gulp..."Ah... it's truly enjoyable to drink alcohol
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Planning All This When The Seasons Have Changed
"So they're still doing things like this!""Yes, I don't know when the real war will end," Endra replied sadly.Garlan sighed deeply. "To stop the war is something impossible, to be precise, it requires a struggle that is not short! Maybe a hundred years from now, all of this will indeed disappear, but the war will change!""What do you mean?"Endra felt that what Garlan was saying was already too far from what he had said before, the change in war sounded very strange."We are fighting with both our bodies and minds, but the generations that will come may not have great physical abilities; they will use their minds! Do not underestimate someone's mind; it can create a much worse disaster!"Upon hearing how Garlan spoke, without many words, it would certainly be an absolute truth.It's hard to guess what Garlan means, but Endra still believes in him. A tough general cannot predict every event, at least based on all their experience, it is a good conclusion."That sounds bad! What else
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Your position will not be able to stop the facts from within this feeling
"Neh, Jennie..."Jennie shivered for a moment after her name was called in that soft voice, and she looked at Elisa, whose gaze was incredibly captivating. Even for a woman like herself, who acknowledged Elisa's beauty, she couldn't imagine how men would react to her."Y-Yes, is there a problem?""No, I just want to hear your opinion."Jennie found Elisa's words confusing, and the discussion seemed like it would be much more complicated. She wasn't skilled or knowledgeable in political matters, despite accompanying Elisa in various tasks. It hadn't improved her ability in that problem.With hesitation, she tried to listen to Elisa's words, hoping to find an appropriate response."You know, as a princess, I've never had any contact with other men. Usually, I only meet General Endra and now Mr. Garlan. I'm a bit curious about finding true love."From head to toe, Jennie was on edge. She never expected Elisa to say something like this. In her mind, this was a more significant problem tha
BELLUM PRAESINTIA What Kind of Physical Training Is This
This is the beginning of the third week of winter, and there are still no signs of the snow melting. The weather was very bad, but it didn't stop Garlan from stepping onto the field, which has now been covered in white."I never thought everything would change like this!"It's hard to understand why Garlan would say such a thing, considering that winter occurs every year. It seems as though he has never paid much attention to such matters."Rosa..."He's not alone; Rosa has been there since earlier, accompanying Garlan for some reason, walking on the field and checking the town's condition. It's almost like a date, but Rosa doubts that Garlan would ever do something like that. He's been silent the whole time, only speaking when necessary.And as soon as she hears her name, her body tenses up, contributing to the spreading cold."Yes," she answers."Do you think training in winter conditions like this is a good idea?"From her own experience, Rosa has never skipped or felt bored traini
BELLUM PRAESINTIA It feels like this is just nonsense that was deliberately put forward
A woman with a surprised expression gazed at Garlan and Rosa, who were standing in front of the door. She had no idea who was in front of her at that moment."Excuse me, can I help you with something?" the woman asked gently.She was confused by the presence of these two person carrying a large cart wrapped in thick cloth, which looked like building materials ready to be moved.Without thinking too positively, this location was unintentionally constructed on land that could be evicted by the royal authorities at any time."Can we discuss this inside a room?" Garlan asked firmly."Of course, please come in."Both of them entered this classic-style house made of old but well-maintained wooden planks. Candlelights illuminated every corner of the building, but when they passed through, several pairs of eyes stared at them in wonder."Oh... don't tell me this!" Rosa just realized the house they were visiting was an orphanage, and many small children were spontaneously looking at them.Thei
BELLUM PRAESINTIA How this will desire
In other words, there is a possibility this orphanage will be demolished. Just thinking about it made the two women tremble.They had no power to oppose the decision; everything that was said could become a reality for them."G-General, I beg you not to demolish this place!" And, this was all they could do. They lowered their heads onto the table; any faster movement would have resulted in a collision sound.The woman beside her began to do the same, unable to withstand the sacrifice made by the middle-aged woman to preserve the orphanage.However, since a while ago, the atmosphere had been too silent. Their souls were misled into the abyss of fear.Negative thoughts about the upcoming events continued to haunt them; they had no idea what Garlan would say next.Garlan's eyes were still fixed on the two women, intimidating enough to humble anyone."Raise your heads!" Garlan ordered.They quickly did so, except for their eyes, which still couldn't look straight ahead.Next, Garlan stood

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

Facing an opponent who may be much fiercer than himself.
"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?"
