Chapter 54 – 06. Participation in the Mei Empire
* * *
“It’s a raid!!”
While eating and resting, there was an enemy attack.
I mean, why are you aiming for a time like this?
A rain of arrows poured down relentlessly, blackening the sky.
“Majesty!!”
Hancock hurriedly fell over Aran, and Ramias stood up and cast a spell at high speed.
“Shield!”
Chow!
Against the pitch-black arrows, the large-scale shield spread out in blue solidly defended itself.
Most of the arrows bounced off, and those that penetrated intermittently fell in vain, losing their power.
“Thanks Hancock! Line up first!”
“Yes!”
She jumped up and ran through the camp, urging the soldiers.
“The second is coming!”
Once again, the sky turned black, and things glittering in the sunlight fell terribly.
By the time the shield defends against the arrows again and the soldiers breathe a sigh of relief,
Kua!!
An enormous energy body began approaching me like a gust of wind.
“Ballista!”
“Avoid!! All spread out!!!”
The soldiers hurriedly spread out, but the ballista was faster than that.
It easily broke the shield that effectively blocked the rain of arrows and attacked the camp.
“Kyaaaaa!!”
A huge explosion exploded, sending well over 100 soldiers flying high into the sky.
After some time, something fell from the sky.
Patter.
It was trees and rocks that flew up with the explosion, and a body in pieces.
“These bitches…!”
Aran raised his bow.
“It doesn’t make any sense! Run away!”
Hancock stopped him, but Aran had a corner to believe.
“No. I will annihilate them here.”
“Yes?”
He said no more and drew mana.
Enormous amount of mana was gathered in the pulled protest.
“Your Highness! Ballista is absolutely not allowed!!”
Hancock stood in front of Aran.
Although it is standard to respond to ballistas with ballistas, that is only if you can afford it.
The transport capacity of the cavalry was not good enough to carry a person discharged due to the ballista.
“It’s okay. I’m different from a normal archer.”
He wears and protests.
Hancock was right in front of her, but to her surprise her, Ballista ran away from her.
It was because he was able to handle it freely as much as he already showed the strength of a 6th tier in archery.
“Ah…!”
As I was admiring the absurd sight, Aran’s ballista struck the enemy camp, destroying the forest.
I could see corpses floating high in the sky in the distance.
“Hancock, hurry up and take care of the soldiers and reorganize the lines.”
“Oh, are you okay?”
“It’s okay.”
Aran pulled the protest again.
More mana was concentrated than before.
“I didn’t come without thinking.”
“What, what…!”
“It’s a ballista!”
“I know when I see it!”
The woman let out her temper and looked around her.
A quarter of the archers he brought were killed or damaged in this attack.
“…How did a man use a ballista?”
“Rumor has it that the Prince of Persia was adopted because he could handle mana.”
“…A man takes mana.”
It was strange, but she brushed it off quickly.
That wasn’t what mattered now.
“Get your lines in order first! Don’t miss those bitches!”
“Yes!”
The women moved busily and rearranged their lines again, and some archers had already raised their bows.
“Everyone, raise your bow…!!”
Just when I was about to give the order,
A huge mass of energy approached, opening its mouth once more.
“Val… Rista…! How the hell! There was another archer!”
It wasn’t one.
As many as three.
It was three ballistas.
The woman intuitively realized that there was no avoiding it, and she just stood there blankly.
If she had known there were more archers, she wouldn’t have been so vain.
‘Stupid bitches…! How on earth do you collect information!’
That was her last thought of her.
Soon, along with a huge mushroom cloud, the women oxidized fiercely.
Kugu Palace!
A landslide occurred in a distant mountain due to a large tremor.
“…Um, what’s my true identity?”
“It’s a person.”
“Lie!”
Ballista shot 4 times in a row.
That’s not possible as a human being.
It also made the last 3 split in midair, so how can it be called human skill.
The eyes of the soldiers also changed.
Now it was not just a prince, but the eyes as if he were looking at a hero or a monster.
“Anyway, the enemy must have been annihilated with this, right?”
“It will be. Unless you bring them in ten thousand units.”
“As expected, Your Highness! I knew about your greatness.”
Lamias flattered and clung to him.
Her soft breasts were pressed against her arms of her, and it felt so good.
“To act like that in a situation like this. After all, can’t a vulgar merchant do anything about it?”
“Hmph. If it wasn’t for my shield, the damage would have increased. Compared to that, I wonder what you did.”
“What?!”
“Come on. Enough with both of you. This isn’t the time to be fighting. There’s a good chance there’s one more enemy.”
“…You, let’s see.”
“I’m excited.”
When it was sorted out to some extent, we moved for about an hour and opened the military camp.
“Oooh… I’m hungry.”
“If it wasn’t for those bitches, I would have filled my stomach a long time ago.”
Hancock grumbled and prepared the shabu-shabu.
“I’ve been thinking about it, but since this place will become my home country someday anyway, why don’t we just push away all the mountains?”
“Heheh?! What do you mean by that, Your Highness!”
“No… I guess the mountain is inconvenient for cavalry to move around, right?”
“But how can you say such environmentally destructive words…”
“What about it? Isn’t it important to survive immediately? You can build as many mountains as you like.”
“Hmph. How are those mountains and natural mountains similar!”
“What’s the difference? A mountain is just a mountain.”
“Enough with both of you. I’ve only been talking about it.”
Two women always fighting like water and oil.
“Or can’t we flatten the land? We can even raise mountains with magic.”
“It’s possible. But you have to formulate it separately. It also requires a lot of mana.”
“Would it be difficult to do it now?”
“That’s right… Unless you’re a mage class…”
Ramias frowns in difficulty.
“Hmm… Isn’t Ramias also a mage? That massive shield doesn’t look unusual.”
“That’s because I have a lot of mana in my shield. I’m not a mage-level yet.”
“Hmm…Really?”
“Your Highness can use the ballista so many times, so if you learn it, you’ll be able to unleash a bigger and stronger shield than mine.”
Aran nodded her head.
Even if he thought, he could do anything with infinite mana.
‘Wait, Queen…! I will definitely catch you!’

“…I must have heard wrong? Archers annihilated! Something must be wrong!”
He insisted, as if Ekaterina couldn’t exist.
The soldier answered in a nervous voice.
“Oh, you heard it right.”
“!!”
Attack the Aran army, which has only cavalry, with an archer, and use a ballista to destroy it. At the same time, her plan was to send tens of thousands of troops back to cut off supply routes to secure, negotiate, and blackmail Prince Aran.
However, since the archer, who could be said to be the cornerstone, was wiped out, all plans were in vain.
“How the hell!!”
“Judging by the traces, it seems that it was hit by a ballista.”
“Ballista? So you’re saying the enemy had archers?”
“That, that’s fine…”
The archers on the scene were wiped out, so there was no way to know.
However, looking at the scene, it was estimated that there must have been at least 3 ballistas, which means that there were at least 3 archers in the enemy.
“I heard there is no archer…”
She biting her nails like she was nervous.
The archers who were annihilated this time were among the elite of the archers, and there were also five archers.
Five archers who could operate as strategic weapons had died.
This was a greater loss than the loss of 5,000 soldiers.
“You seem to be struggling. Low.”
Then, a woman approached her.
It was glass glass.
“…Duke Yuri. What are you doing?”
“I heard that you struggled against the enemy prince.”
“…….”
Could it be that I came here to make fun of it?
Her expression her slightly distorted, but she quickly recovered.
Of course, I could see everything through Yuri’s eyes his.
“Ah. I’m not here to mock you. But that prince is the one who escaped my attack. Maybe it’s just natural.”
“You dodged the duke’s attack?”
“Yes.”
She had a look that she couldn’t believe.
I know Duke Yuri is a 6th tier knight, but it was strange that he could be trusted.
“Whoa. You don’t believe it. But it’s true. It didn’t move with all its might, but it wouldn’t be possible to avoid it with a Tier 5 level. He would also be a Tier 6 knight.”
“…By the way, did you meet the Prince of Persia?”
“You already know everything, so why are you doing that? Whoops.”
“…”
“Don’t worry. I came here on the orders of His Majesty the Emperor, so I will never do anything that harms this land.”
Ekaterina didn’t believe it.
The Mei Empire, in the end, only moved for its own benefit, and it was clear that it would be ripped off as much after this war was over.
“If so, what should I do?”
But now I have no choice but to rely on it.
“I’m going. That’s what I’m here for.”
“You mean the Duke himself?”
“Yes. I don’t need any other troops. The sewage is only a hindrance to the masters’ fight.”
She smiled and then disappeared.
Seeing this, Ekaterina felt embarrassed for nothing.
