The time of the 5th has pa.s.sed since the 500 strong Imperial Army arrived in the area where the other army will appear.
But they still do not have any battle with their enemies. On the contrary, they could not even capture the enemies.
Rather, although there were reports of the discovery of enemy traces several times by the scout platoon, there was nothing there when they rushed to that place by horse.
As soon as they reached the spot that the scouts had discovered traces of the enemy, they hurried out each time.
As soon as as the scouts discovered traces of the enemy, they hurried to the spot each time. Day and night, no matter how high their morale started off, it was inevitable that the morale declined.
In the first place, the advance party was composed of knights who were taken from the main Knight Order. Needless to say, the advance team was also faced morale problems, much more than the main group.
“…… Hey, this time we found an enemy trace to the east.”
“Wasn’t it in the west last time? What are you scouts doing?”
“It’s not a mistake to check it out, right?”
Every time an order comes down, there are people who b.i.t.c.h about it.
However, they have no choice but to put in the work for the order.
They packed up the simple tents and set off on horseback. However, as before, when they arrived, there were only traces of the enemy, and no enemy to be found.
People began to call for the scouts to take responsibility, but since they did find traces of the enemy, the advance team continued to send reports to the main party.
“… Oita, the sense of tension inside the troops is getting loose”
“Hey, the troops are becoming complacent.”
Royce and Kelvin’s tent.
When Kelvin came back after patrolling the camp, Royce did not start eating the meal that Kelvin brought, and instead looked at the doc.u.ments strewn over the simple desk.
“There seemed to be another commotion last night, so it was a pain to defuse the situation.”
Kelvin swings his head in the words of Lloyd’s labor and places his sword on the corner of the tabernacle.
Kelvin shakes his head, lays his sword on the wall of the tent.
“It may be useless if this swing continues,”
“If this goes on, it will all be futile.”
Negative feelings proliferate, and the army’s discipline is unraveling.
The intensity of the complaints against the commoners at the end of each expedition revealed their discontent.
A skirmish like a bully to the students of the commoner who is a weak person in the troops, followed by a platoon of people. Kelvin went to arbitrate the fuss because some of the Lloyd’s platoons came involved last night.
Kelvin had to arbitrate and avoid a duel to bully the commoner students who were in Royce’s platoon last night.
“Since the morale has fallen, they will begin to complain about the weakest link, since the rift between the n.o.bles and commoners is deep.”
“Especially since this group is made up of people who don’t have mainstream frequency, and the captains and other officers are all made up of n.o.bles weakened by their vanity. Well, it’s to be expected, but…”
Royce signaled for Kelvin to take a seat, wiped the sweat off his forehead with a ha
ndkerchief, and arranged the doc.u.ments spread out in the table. He then put a crystal into his chest.
“Were you communicating with them?”
“There is no problem, I just finished the call”
It was a magic crystal for communication. After imbuing it with magic, and splitting the crystal into two, and it becomes possible to talk with others with each piece. Although it was a highly confidential item, it was very expensive, so it was not very popular. Originally it was a tool that only commanders and important imperial officials could use.
“It seems that the talks have progressed successfully, and the negotiations seems to also be on a travelling s.h.i.+p.”
“So you’re trying to get a trump card for certainty?”
“We have to use what we can. It’s natural to go for the weak points.”
Kelvin accepted the cup of tea that Royce had poured, and Royce took a bite of the bread that was his supper, which had cooled down on his desk.
“It’s tasteless. None of the military rations are delicious, but this is definitely of low quality.”
Frowning, he dipped the hard bread in the cold soup. Kuchakichi(TL: sfx?)
Kelvin sat facing him, and picked up the bowl of cold soup and drank a spoonful with a bitter smile.
The soup had chicken and beans, with only a little seasoning.
“There is also a sideways flow of munitions supplies inside, so whatever you think, there should not be no fraud in the middle now”
“There is also the internal trading of munitions, but there shouldn’t be any embezzlement by the middle man.”
They doubted that the food was distributed according to military regulations.
Royce and Kevin silently continued eating, but suddenly, they heard a shout from outside the tent. There seemed to be another dispute.
Kelvin was about to get up, but Royce stopped him with his hand.
Judging by the direction of the shout, their men weren’t involved.
Soon, the shouting voices calmed down.(TL:I guess I should find the raw and actually look at it… but… too lazy…)
“To be honest, I am against the a commoner becoming a knight.”
Lloyd’s muttered.
“War is the duty of the n.o.bility, and knighthood isn’t like what people believe it is. The people should spend their time working, and enjoying their time in peace with their family.”
“Are you referring to Knight Cadet Wynn?”
“It is good that people admire knights, and he has probably done so for a long time… That’s why there is no need for a commoner to dirty his hands with murder.”
Royce put down the bowl of soup, and exited the tent, and looked towards where his subordinates should be. Though there were campfires everywhere, Royce couldn’t see his subordinates’ tents.
Although he looked at the tents several times, and though the other knights were frustrated and irritated, his subordinates had not shown such signs.
They had endured the abuse and backbiting from the other knights.
While feeling a sense of tension somewhere, it is particularly calm with wins and rock. Even if Kelvin was provoked until he arrived at the arbitration, he was keen. Dragged in by that att.i.tude, Rino, a new rookie, Wedge – he seems to be a reticent person originally – seems to have a positive effect.
Even though there was tension, Wynn and Locke were particularly calm. Even until Kelvin had intervened, they had been alert. There seemed to be a positive effect on Reeno and Wedge (who was originally taciturn).
While other knights and apprentice knights often succ.u.mbed to the provocations, Wynn and Locke had survived the battles during that coup. They were calmer than other rookie knights.
“I will use him, even though he should originally just live in peace, but I will use him to the limit.”
When confirmed that the name of the win was described in his unit, Lloyds thought of a strategy to use him. I thought of it.
Confirming that he was talking about Wynn, Royce thought of a strategy.
“It is useless to win.”(???)
Royce laughed bitterly at Kelvin’s words..
“With my plan, I won’t be killed by the Brave.”
Royce recalled the time when he met the girl known as the Brave in the palace.
She was angry because she thought that Royce was being unfair to Wynn.
“Victory, huh… I think the only victory is when the citizens of this country can live with a smile. It is not something I can achieve as a Lieutenant, so I will use Leti to help me do it.”
The empire had not yet noticed Wynn’s true worth.
No, n.o.ble cla.s.ses and knight cla.s.ses looking down on the commoners of this country do not want to admit it.
Rather, the n.o.bility and the knights, who shunned commoners, did not want to admit it.
When Leticia the Brave, said that remark that day:
‘I will return to my Master, Wynn Byrd.’
Everybody was interested in the person who taught her swordplay and magic. Everybody who was there was captivated by her smile when the Emperor asked her that question.
The name Leticia van Mavis, who held the moniker “Divine Sword Princess”, gave was spread throughout the continent by the amba.s.sadors of other countries who were present.
Unlike the empire, they were eager.
The prominent n.o.bles of the empire hated his status and felt threatened by him, so they underrated him and did not spread his name.
In fact it is one case of that coup d’etat who, despite the big achievement from anyone’s eyes, according to the customs so far, respecting the results at the knight school and keeping it in the position of a knight candidate It’s good evidence. The state of this empire is also distorted by some aristocrats, even even in the thesis of a thesis.
However, foreign countries are different.
The name of Wynn Byrd is well known.
Since it is a human being in another country, it does not affect the authority of the country’s aristocrat at all.
What kind of treatment will he receive in other countries? Perhaps he does not know himself.
Royce will use that.
Even if he would receive the wrath of the brave Leticia as a result, obtaining victory and protecting the well-being of the people is Royce van Elstead’s obligation as a n.o.ble.
