Chapter 518 – 42. Dezac Empire – General Escalor Destrov (1)
Hehe~♪”
A humming sound lightly filled the tent.
The owner of the hum stretched his arms outstretched upwards.
My body felt a little stiff.
“This.”
This is not good.
There will be a big war soon, and you need to keep your body in top condition.
“Whoa. I shouldn’t be so excited already.”
She, the great general of the empire, was making an excited expression like a child about to eat out for the first time.
However, what Grand General Escalor had ahead of him was a battle, not eating out.
It is also a state-to-state war, not a small-scale conflict that has been experienced so far.
Escalor smirked with excitement and came out of the tent.
“Very, Your Excellency the General?”
The escort guarding the general’s barracks outside shouted in surprise at her sudden appearance of her.
“What, what happened to you!”
“Hmm. Are you new?”
“Yes? Oh, yes!”
“So you were very nervous.”
The new escort, who shouted nervously, saluted in a stiff posture, then stopped at attention. It’s a gesture worthy of the standard of the military, but I felt sorry for Escalor, who was fluttering from the beginning.
“I’m sorry!!”
“It’s okay. So, lower your voice. Everyone around you is staring at you.”
“I’ll fix it!!”
“Yes, correct me. I see a lot of things to fix.”
“Poem, correct…”
“More than that.”
“Yes, tell me!!”
She had nothing to tell this newcomer, but she said it pleasantly.
“Let’s go out for a while.”
“Okay. I’m the escort…”
“No. I don’t need an escort.”
“Yes?! That, but…”
“It doesn’t matter. Wasn’t it in the manual?”
“Ah…”
The new escort recalled the essential knowledge manuals she had received from her superiors and her seniors.
She, of course, read every word without missing a word.
Nevertheless, at the time, there were many parts that I did not understand because it was an escort for the general. And the manual certainly had this situation. Just because the general is out of town, don’t try to stay by his side.
“I’m sorry!”
An escort who apologized while bending his back her more than 90 degrees.
Escalor shook his hand and left, saying that he was okay with that burdensome appearance.
Get out of the camp where the Imperial Legion is located and keep your distance.
Without having to go far, I could see a dense forest in the distance.
A gigantic green jungle that is vast no matter how many times you look at it.
I wonder how people live in places like that.
But it was a different idea that filled her head her.
“Flaw.”
It’s a big deal.
Looking at the jungle, I keep getting my mouth shut.
After a while, we will head towards that huge jungle.
An enormous army numbering in the tens of thousands.
‘I’m really looking forward to it. But before that…. Should I relax a bit?’
Just in case you get hurt, shake his wrist gently and clasp his fist.
And he swung
Coo coo-
A gust of wind rips through the ground with a huge roar.
The force that had gone hundreds of meters easily destroyed the entrance to the jungle.
Kwagwagwagwang!!!
Haha!”
The general laughed as he watched dozens of thick trees shatter and scatter on the floor.
Fun. It’s not that the tree is broken, but the fact that you can express the power you’ve been suppressing.
Although he is still suppressing more than half of it, it is not very common to find a place where he can use his strength his like this.
The other day, I accidentally destroyed one of the castles in a certain territory and got in a lot of trouble.
So, to this extent, it belongs to a very happy thing.
“More… ! More… !!”
The more violent punches went beyond the wind created by the power, and created a small storm.
Kind of like magic. Anyone who sees what she did can’t help but believe that it was magic.
Escalor kicks off the floor and runs toward the jungle.
She went beyond her punches and joined her feet her, stirring the jungle entrance.
Kugu Palace!! Kwagwagwang!!
“Haha! Euhhahaha!! Kyahahaha!!”
After running wild for about 20 minutes, the general calmed down only after turning the vast jungle into a rugged land.
A strong aura still gushed from her body, but now it was time to suppress it. Escalor eagerly calmed her feverish blood and checked the condition of her body her. The result of moderate rampage was, without a doubt, the best physical condition of her.
“Hehe, good.”
General Escalor returned to the camp in good spirits.
It was, of course, nagging to greet her like that.
“Ha ha, Your Excellency General. What the hell have you done?”
Not many people dare to say anything to the general, the head of the military.
But he is one of the few that can do that.
One of those who earned the name of a general with only seven digits even in the military.
His name His was Ashgal Lakoko.
“What are you doing? I just warmed up a bit.”
“It’s light…”
General Ashgar laughed as he recalled what he had seen from afar.
Escalor ran ruthlessly enough to be clearly seen from several kilometers away.
But was it light? How strong would he be if he truly ran amok?
‘I know it’s strong, but the more I look at it, the more it transcends common sense.’
She took her place her, crushing her opposition to the inauguration of the general with overwhelming force.
Among the seven generals, Ashgar was the one who did not rebel and followed the Emperor’s decision. Thanks to that, he managed to maintain a good relationship with her until now. Needless to say what would have happened to the four generals who rebelled and raised their voices.
“Anyway, you’ve made a big mistake doing that in the jungle.”
“Ummm. Sure… It was a mistake.”
No matter how small the population is compared to the size of the territory, the jungle and the 3-prong alliance, someone may have come nearby for a while.
It is this operation that you need to be careful and careful again.
Rapid advance through surprise.
It is the Empire’s plan to deal with the tricky similar country called the Three-Pronged Alliance.
“It’ll be fine though. I didn’t feel any presence around.”
“Is that so… I’m glad I did.”
“No. I’m sorry.”
She sincerely apologizes to General Eshgar.
Because of her age her in her 50s and her dignified appearance her, people who don’t know her tend to look like her father and daughter her.
However, General Escalor is by no means in his 20s.
“So are you ready?”
“All finished.”
“Okay. The surprise attack is as planned… Two days later, it’s dawn. You won’t be able to sleep tomorrow, so let the soldiers rest today.”
“All right.”
The general seems to be simply ignorant of his strength, but he is surprisingly good at strategy and tactics.
However, it is not at the level of clever plans and excellent strategies.
However, there are generals and staff who have served in the military for a long time by the general’s side.
Added to Escalor’s innate charisma, many lower-ranking soldiers regard them as the High Warlord’s exploits. Even in the military department of her general who assists her, she does n’t feel the need to point it out, so she leaves it as it is. This is because the command of the military is convenient.
“You must know the goal of this war, General Lacoco.”
“Of course.”
“Okay. Then, let’s get together one more time before our final meeting tomorrow night.”
“I’ll call you right away.”
General Eshgar was also looking for her for this rather than her accident.
The general, who turned his back and moved to call the other generals and staff, suddenly remembered Escalor’s daughter from the confident face of Escalor.
She is a daughter who ran away from home and went to the academy, saying she wanted to become an elemental sage without much talent. The results are still disappointing. As Eshgal, I want to believe in her daughter her, but I can’t help but support her because I know it’s not an easy path to become a spirit slain.
‘Whoa. Come to think of it, I seem to be getting along with some guy these days…. Tsk. I’ll have to visit the academy someday.’
As a general, there are plenty of excuses to visit the academy.
However, all of his imagination was after the war against the Three-Earth Alliance ended in victory.
Things in the world weren’t so easy.
Escalor, Eshgar, and the other generals received unexpected news the next evening.
“…What?”
“Gee, what did you just say? Say it again!”
“Ah, at the academy… A raid occurred.”
“No, what the hell is this…”
“Raid? Raid? How large is it, even to us…”
The camp is ready to attack the 3-pronged alliance in just a few hours.
One news that shook the place was none other than the attack on the Imperial Academy.
It’s a messenger that came as a breaking news, so there’s no proper information yet, but since the academy is located in the capital, it’s not an ordinary incident. Depending on the scale, it wouldn’t be strange even if the army immediately retreated.
“…”
Because of this, Escalor was troubled.
Should we start the war at dawn as planned?
Or should I wait for follow-up news?
The decision made by the general after much consideration was the latter.
“We stand by.”
“Yes?”
“But, Your Excellency, General!”
“Dawn is coming again. It’s not as much a problem as being a little late. However, depending on the level of work at the academy, problems may arise. Keep in mind that our Imperial Army is both the sword and the shield of this country.”
Her words quieted the inside of the makeshift barracks.
That’s right.
The troops here were not even half of the military, but there were many commanding officers.
Three generals in the general army. It was hard to leave the place secretly, but we gathered anyway.
It is not possible to start a war as planned and then retreat after a problem arises.
“All right.”
“…Whoa. I’ll deliver it to the bottom.”
Inside the barracks, an uncomfortable atmosphere began to circulate.
The general thought about the academy raid incident.
It may be an idle suspicion, but the timing is not very good.
‘Could someone…. No, is this a leap?’
Knowing the war plan this time is not enough.
Even the soldiers gathered at the camp know this as training.
So it is impossible to create an incident to prevent a war.
Escalor believed firmly, but trust was always betrayed.
One day before now.
