116. There is not much time left until you become the master of Descartes.
In the middle of a battlefield full of silence and tension, as if the abyss was listening.
Pitch-black darkness began to spread powerfully from the sphere placed on France’s palm.
Shwaak─!
Something slowly rose up from the puddles of shadows that appeared here and there, and soon transformed into the form of a demonic beast and stepped on the ground.
Demon beasts that reveal their presence by emitting black fog.
“Princess, what is this?”
“I learned it from that magic book.”
Necromancer magic. France, who appeared as the boss of the game, used it well. A lot has changed since the game, but I never thought I’d see this.
“You’ll be able to see fun things from now on.”
Just right! When France snapped her fingers, the black demonic beasts that had been stopped moved.
-Kieeek!
-Claralak!
-Whoa!
Franze’s soldiers and demonic beasts clash as they rush in, scattering black fog while retaining their original appearance.
Boom! Simplicity and honesty! Quack!
A wild fight as vivid as raw meat. They were seen fiercely hitting and fighting each other.
It was a mess, it was a mess.
As the demonic soldiers died and returned to the darkness, the reduced number could be reduced by raising the corpses of other demonic beasts again.
“What a ridiculous way to fight.”
“I’m a little creeped out… ….”
Ladea shakes her shoulders and Kale looks at this scene with a smile.
It may not be a big deal to a transcendental person like me, but to ordinary people, it is an overwhelming power.
You’re leading an army by yourself, right?
“Wake up.”
France devoured the corpses of the demonic beasts without stopping with his magic power. The magical beast soldiers that are continuously replenished rush in like mad dogs and continue the fight without stopping.
The demonic beasts that poured out from the waves of disaster had no choice but to be helplessly defeated by France’s soldiers.
“Can we just stay still?”
Cale asked with her arms crossed with a sour expression on her face. She looks bored because she has nothing to do.
“No, now that I’ve shown you what I have to show you, let’s wrap it up quickly. “This was just to show them my power.”
Only then did Cale smile and nod her head. Radea immediately adjusted the hilt of her sword.
“Everyone raise your sword!”
“Yes!”
“Of course.”
Passy!
Kale’s auror was released and the electric current exploded. Bang! As it is, it steps forward and rushes forward, cutting down the demonic beasts.
“Ha!”
Ladea swings her sword with a shout of spirit. It was a beautiful sword strike, as if a renowned artist was painting a picture with a brush.
“Jin? “There is no need to control your strength anymore.”
“Yes. “I will sort it out quickly.”
I raised my sword blade and walked forward. First of all, you can’t just throw the Auror on the ground and blow up the entire area.
‘Is there no way to just kill him with a normal sword strike?’
I turned my head and asked France.
“Princess, you don’t need an escort, right?”
“Okay. “You can protect yourself even on your own.”
We can just summon the demon beasts we killed, so there will be no problem with the troops.
“I understand. “Then I’ll go right away.”
I shouted loudly toward Kale and Ladea with aura in my voice.
“Kale, Radea! From now on, stop protecting the princess and focus only on cutting down the magical beast!”
Kale and Ladea also answered with aura in their voices.
“I understand!”
“Yes!”
Good spirit.
‘Shall we begin now?’
I raised my sword high in the center of the magical beasts pouring in from a short distance away. Collect aurors like this.
Wow… !
Release the aura of the entire body with an inhalation. The blood flow rushes, the body heats up, and hot breath escapes.
Wow!
A huge vibration accompanied a feeling of pressure, crushing the surrounding demons, and the blue aura flickered and shone like a supernova.
“Hmph!”
Kwagwagwagwa──!
A roaring sound erupts, and the aura-filled sword strikes like a storm, destroying everything it touches.
With just one sword strike, thousands of demons that existed beyond the plain disappeared.
‘It will be over in an instant.’
It is so overwhelmingly powerful that the knights and wizards who have maintained the front line and dealt with the magical beasts look like fools.
‘This is why he must be a monster, a transcendent, who can keep the nation in check.’
Well, anyway.
The plans and work I have prepared so far are over, so I need to get them sorted out quickly.
* * *
Commander’s barracks at the very rear of the Descartes Front.
France spoke first.
“One day was enough to clear up the waves of disaster. “I should have led from the beginning.”
An arrogant attitude and a triumphant expression that seems to pierce the sky. She deserved it.
He was a hero who appeared in a desperate situation.
“I am truly sorry for doubting you, princess. Even if there were ten mouths, there would be nothing to say.”
The knight commander bowed his waist and humbly asked for an apology. Even if that happens, you will lose your job.
“So? I really wish it had been like this before. Isn’t that right, Commander?”
A knight commander who can’t even raise his head, let alone raise his head.
“I, who you so ignored, discriminated against, and looked down on, defended the Cartesian front. It’s amazing. Is not it?”
France laughed and poked the top of the head of the bowed knight commander with a fan.
“I’m sorry…” ….”
“Yes, I should be sorry.”
France crossed his legs and raised his head stiffly, looking down at the knight commander.
‘I should have lived while taking care of my conscience.’
Starting from Descartes’ members to servants and knights. Instead of respecting France, no one has even ignored her.
Even though she is the youngest daughter of the duke and princess.
‘It all comes back to karma.’
France continued speaking while patting the head of the knight commander who was bowed down with a fan.
“Anyway, we’re going back now. “Can I leave it to you to clean up after me?”
“Just leave it to me! “We’ll fix the wires and take care of all the remaining bits and pieces!”
A knight commander whose voice is full of anxiety. France shook his head and took out his fan.
“Okay, then I’ll leave you to clean up after you. You know that if something happens, it’s your fault, right? “You are the knight commander who ignored me.”
A feeling of pressure constricting my chest, as if a poisonous snake is tying up its prey to take it. Cold sweat dripped from the tips of the knight commander’s bangs.
“Because it is a matter of the prestige of the Descartes family… The responsibility is your life… ?”
The knight commander’s shoulders trembled. I think I can tell his expression without even looking at his face.
“There is no answer.”
“Yes, yes!”
“Can I leave it to you?”
“Just leave it to me!”
A spirited answer. But France did not intend to end there.
“Oh, but isn’t it strange? Apparently, the demonic beast in the folktale called the Ghost of the Cold appears and needs to retreat and then request support… ?”
Cruel. So much so that even I have a dry mouth.
“Why are you asking me to just leave it to you if that cold ghost appears again? Does the prestige of the Descartes family seem light? “Isn’t your life worth it?”
It’s scary. Was France originally good at this? Or did you practice secretly for this time? The atmosphere is solemn… ….
“Oh, no! “We will correct it!”
“City administration? What are you going to do? “Let’s hear it.”
France lifted the knight commander’s chin with a fan. His eyes were shaking as if there had been an earthquake.
“Well, that is…” First, let’s release a scout and check the situation… If there’s a problem… ….”

France tilts his head to the side and asks, “What if there is a problem?”
“Well, that is…” ….”
“You can’t do it without us, right?”
“That’s right… ….”
“You are truly incompetent.”
Ha, France sighs and gets up from her seat.
“I guess it can’t be helped. I have no choice but to keep looking on behalf of the stupid and incompetent knight commander. “You think so too, right?”
A question addressed to the vice-captain out of the blue.
“Well, that is…” ….”
I roll my eyes and glance at the bowed knight commander.
“Huh? Are you looking into the knight commander’s opinion? “Ignoring what I said?”
Wow, this isn’t easy.
“Oh, no!”
“Why not?”
“Sorry!”
“What are you sorry for?”
I quietly looked at France’s face. Her expression was a mixture of joy, relief, catharsis, and ridicule.
“Now, vice-captain. Speak quickly. “I should watch the front line on behalf of the stupid and incompetent knight commander, right?”
The vice-captain stiffened and swallowed his saliva.
“Oh, that’s right…” !”
Phew, France suddenly burst into laughter.
“Are you ignoring the knight commander who has been with you for several years? “That’s funny.”
Even I, watching it, feel mentally shaken. Where on earth did you learn this?
“That’s enough. Because you are both dismissed from your positions. “Go back now.”
The knight commander straightened up and looked at France. Wide-eyed. The vice-captain next to me was no different.
“Go, princess! “You mean dismissal!”
“We… !”
France cut off their conversation with a displeased look on her face.
“Shall I tell you what you guys did? “You have ignored me so far, so you are guilty of insulting a great noble, and since you rebelled against me when I told you I was in command, you are disobeying your superior’s orders and even lack the ability to perform your duties.”
For a knight with honor, these are the three fatal powers.
“Since you were dismissed for this reason, your knighthood may be forfeited. Still, I have a big heart, so I won’t go so far as to confiscate my title. However, you will never be able to be appointed as someone’s knight again, right?”
The knight commander and vice-captain pursed their lips with their faces distorted. It’s a face that makes you want to vent your anger right now.
“Still, I’m good at using a sword, so I guess I can make a living as a mercenary. “My guard knight is also a mercenary, so he can recognize the guild. How about that?”
The knight commander and vice-captain bow their heads and shake their hands.
‘There is no way out.’
They are trash who, instead of stopping, sympathized with and stood by when the knights insulted and ignored France.
I don’t know the other two reasons because I couldn’t see them because I was busy holding on to Eden.
“… No, I’ll just leave.”
The knight commander and vice-captain bowed their heads and were about to leave.
“Oh, please return the armor and horse. “Strictly speaking, it is the property of the dukedom.”
I hit the final blow.
“… ….”
“… ….”
Their current feelings are reflected in their eyes. Embarrassment, anxiety, resentment, despair. These are truly colorful emotions.
“Now go out.”
Only then did France’s story end and the knight commander and vice-captain left.
“Whoa, I feel refreshed inside.”
France exudes freshness by stretching his arms like a cat stretching. I laughed.
“Where did you learn that?”
“What?”
“I was shaking while watching.”
“Oh, that?”
France chuckled.
“I always thought about it. “If I could get revenge, what would I say?”
Is it a skill that has been practiced repeatedly over a long period of time? For some reason, it didn’t seem unusual. Lathea asked.
“But if that happens, how will these people fare? If the armor and horses were taken from the North…….”
Well, you’re worrying for nothing.
“They will take care of that, right?”
Yes. There should be an answer like that.
“Ah… ….”
Ladea blinks with a dumbfounded look on her face. Well, he doesn’t know the details of France’s situation.
‘I’ll have to tell you later.’
Isn’t it troublesome if France is seen as an evil and vicious boss without blood or tears?
“Anyway, let’s just stay where we are until we hear news from the imperial family and Persia. “Everyone can go do whatever they want.”
When free time was given, Lathea and Kale’s faces brightened.
“Really? “It’s been a while since I got to roll around in the snow.”
“I felt uncomfortable, but it turned out well. “I need to sharpen my blade.”
After saying that, I got excited and went outside.
“Now all that remains is to become Descartes’ master.”
“That’s right. “I have more work to do when I get back.”
Unlike France, who had a relieved face as the end of her journey neared, I smiled bitterly.
Now is the time to really put an end to our story.
