The Magnificent Battle Records of A Former Noble Lady

And so, she who possessed the name Witch of Foresight talked about the future that she had in mind.

The King will probably run. However, there is quite a distance if he is going to escape to the Royal Capital. Even so, it is unlikely that they will be able to gather a group capable of the opposing Rulan Kingdom in the cities near Rakayan. On the contrary, it cannot be said whether the people will stand up in arms and rebel against the King who had been silent about the war in the end. The King of Rideiran Kingdom will probably be surrounded by enemies on all sides.

He reaps what he sows, Heine nodded to a laughing Clarina.

And? If that happens, what will the King do?

He. Will. Come. Here.

By here, you mean here in Manrinia?

Yes, here in Manrinia.

Heeh. And why is that?

Thats because the Saintess will be here. And, Sylti and Al, too. Additionally, so is the Prince and Balratona Duke Houses Second Son. And, there will probably be an order for the Knights to accompany Sylti and the others, and a separate order, among others.

A different order?

After the purification, Manrinia will be placed under the Knights control and they will try to secure the Saintess. Or, so I expect. Probably. Thats why the King will come to Manrinia. And, then, hes going to use the remaining Knights and Sylti as an additional war power to challenge Rulan Kingdom again, I guess. Well, he might also use Sylti as a shield against the other Dipterous Sword allies fighting in Rulan Kingdoms side, or maybe turn them to his side.

Clarina, who spoke as if she enjoyed the moment, finally could not hold it in and burst out laughing.

Fufufufu! Ahahahaha! I feel sorry for the people who dont know were here and are heading to Manrinia!! When they find out, they will experience despair for a second time!! There will be absolutely no hope for them!! They will only be continuously driven to despair!! Im so, so, soooo excited! I can finally take revenge on those who hurt Sylti!! I wonder how long Ill have to wait!!

Clarina laughs delightedly, as if she were truly enjoying.

In turn, Heine smiles widely at Clarina.

Really, my comrades sure have very unique personalities. The closer the end is, the more excitable they get.

That includes Heine-kun, too, of course.

Naturally.

Laughing, the two were unaware that the other fellows at the camp were throwing complicated looks their way.

Uwah, they sure look like theyre havin so much fun over there

While watching Clarina and Heine, who are laughing happily on the hill, Rain conversely smiles confusedly.

And, maintaining the smile, Rain reports to the person whose figure appears in the magic circle.

Everything is in order, and there havent been any problems so far, Master.

((Seems like it, huh. Im relieved.))

Answering to Rains report with a smile of his own, was Ait Blurant, the Guild Master of the Mercenary Guild, The Dipterous Sword.

((Were also arriving there tomorrow.))

Izzat so!? Ah, but ya cant go any slower, right?

((Thats right. Those who are in charge of controlling the soldiers of Rulan Kingdom will leave for Rakayan in 3 days.))

Thats a pretty tough schedule, innit?

((I am staying on standby in the Shields Perch Headquarter Ship, but the people who are going with Elaine-san sure have it hard. It would be nice if we could land from Rakayan though))

Theyre being suspected after all, arent they?

((Yes. Thats why, even if its a bit hard to do, I decided to dock at Manrinia for a while, and from there, head on to Rakayan. I want Clarina to set up an invisible barrier for those who will be going.))

If its an invisible barrier, cant Master put it up? I mean, there are also other people who can do it over there, right?

((Well, there is, but Clarina-sans barriers are more stable, and the structure is better, at any rate. I figured its safer to entrust it to people who specialize in it.))

That said, Clarina-sans a Commander, too, isnt she?

((For me, classifying her as a wizard is fine though. I mean, its not unusual for members of The Dipterous Sword to be capable with swords, magic, and commanding after all.))

Nah, Kura-sans pretty bad with swords.

((Oh, is that so?))

There was one time when I joined Kura-sans sword practice, but I was almost killed when the sword slipped from her hands

((My, my))

Ait also felt uneasy as he saw how Rain turned pale and shivered as he recounted the moment.

If there are things one is good at, of course, there will also be some areas where one is not.

Ait decided to keep Clarina from handling a sword from then on.

Well, see you tomorrow, Master.

((Yes. Well, even if I say that well be immediately returning to the ship anywaybut, you too, dont just easily put your guard down at the end, got it?))

I know. I mean, its our time to shine after all!

((Thats right. Its showtime from now on. Make sure you succeed, okay?))

Absolutely!!

Ait once again smiled at Rain who answered energetically, before cutting the call off.

Wont be long now.

With a face similarly reflecting the enjoyment of the two on the hill, Rain uttered in a voice that bounded with excitement.
