I Became the Younger Brother of the Female Protagonist in the Novel - I Became the Younger Brother of the Female Protagonist in the Novel chapter 112

“… … What do you mean?”

“It is said that a young master named Kayneth H Spayone demonstrated the magic of the 4th Circle at the age of 13. He also said that he gained the trust of His Highness Ryard and was given the title of Viscount and the Arden family, and became independent from the Speywon family.”

The face of Lebak, who was angry, was colored with absurdity this time.

Lebaque, which was not interested in even the newspapers let alone the aristocratic society.

Although his head was filled with thoughts of his life and death every time, he was well aware of how great the existence of the 4th Circle was.

“The fourth circle at only 13 years old… … ? Rather, were you originally the young master of the Spey One family?”

“Yes that’s right.”

Lebak frowned in disbelief at the adjutant’s story.

Then, as if lost in thought for a while, I rested my chin.

“You didn’t spend the money on the Spay One family, did you?”

“This is a title conferred by the imperial family. No matter how much the Spey One family is, money can’t solve everything. And the fact that Viscount Arden is a 4th Circle wizard has already been confirmed by countless people with their own eyes, and it has been published dozens of times in newspapers.”

“newspaper… … . Hell, I should have learned to write properly. Rather, if you are a magician from the 4th circle, are you coming here to experience the war?”

Lebak muttered in a low voice.

Perhaps hearing that, the adjutant nodded as if affirming Lebak’s thoughts.

“Perhaps. Even though we are facing the Red Wolves, a large army of 100,000 is stationed in this Harperos Plain. It is presumed that His Highness Ryard wants to show Viscount Ardenn the appearance of the battlefield and let him experience it himself.”

At the adjutant’s remarks, Lebaque clicked his tongue slightly.

“Tsk, you look like you have to babysit two little kids.”

“To Your Highness, such a statement… … .”

“Yes, I know! Still, it would be better for His Highness Rival to come than for His Highness Ryard to come!”

“that… … .”

Lebak’s harsh tone was nerve-wracking, but the adjutant could not easily raise an objection.

“His Highness Lyard said the enemy commander was that red wolf, so he seemed interested… … . It’s just a wolf without teeth. I can kill the cowardly guy who keeps sending out small troops right now! At this point, it would be fine for us to attack first. Before His Highness Lyard arrives.”

When Lebak rolled up the corner of his mouth, the adjutant shook his head with a puzzled expression.

“No matter what, he is a man with a record of 100,000 victories. If you recklessly go ahead… … .”

“Didn’t you say that the number of troops is twice as large as that of the allies?”

“Yes, it is, but… … .”

“Then it might be worth attacking.”

The adjutant became anxious for a moment.

Could it be that you really intend to strike first? If it was the imperial army that had made a camp on the hill, it would be able to sufficiently block the enemy’s attacks.

But what if you risk the threat and attack first?

The adjutant’s face hardened for a moment at the uncertain result, and Lebaque waved his hand while looking at the aide.

“Hey, it’s a joke, so don’t be so hard on yourself. I am also a person who has been on the battlefield for 30 years. I know very well that there is no great benefit from attacking the enemies in the current situation. It’s just that I didn’t like the high-ranking people who only wanted to take credit.”

food. Lebark smiled playfully and spoke.

Seeing that, the adjutant sighed in relief.

“More than that, His Highness Lyard said he would arrive in four days, and the enemy… … Do you want to arrive in two days?”

Lebak looked at the map spread out on the table and began to straighten his untidy beard.

* * *

“Your Highness, we have arrived at the Harperos Plain.”

The moment the imperial wagon, which had been moving to the northern front for four days, entered the camp of the imperial army, the soldiers formed a rank and greeted them.

And when Lyard and Kaynes got off the wagon, Lebak, commander-in-chief of the imperial army guarding the Harperos Plain, saluted at the head of the ranks.

Remembrance!

No matter how much he had risen from a commoner soldier to an aristocrat, in front of the imperial family, he was just a mere low-class aristocrat.

So you can’t be arrogant.

Then, seeing Lebark’s sharpened appearance, Ryard let out a small sigh.

“This is the first time we have met face-to-face like this. Lord Lebaque.”

At that one word, Lebak immediately lowered his head and knelt on the ground with his right knee.

dump!

“Meet the little sun of the Empire, His Highness, the 3rd Prince of Lyard E Labadian.”

When Lebak said yes, Ryard nodded and looked around.

“I lack experience in warfare. Beside Kyung, help me a lot.”

“I will do my best to assist you. First, go to the Commander’s Office. Let me guide you.”

“Yes, it is.”

Lebaque and his adjutant escorted Lyard and Kayneth to the commander’s office.

There was a round table in the huge tent called the Commander’s Office, and something was scribbled on a map spread out on the table.

Ryard naturally walks to the seat of honor.

The moment he was about to sit down in the chair, he looked at Lebak as if something had come to mind.

“Oh, I should have told you in advance.”

“yes? which… … .”

“Viscount Ardennes only obeys my orders, so please do not interfere with his operational actions as much as possible.”

Lebak made eye contact with a 168 cm tall black-haired boy.

Viscount Keynes L Ardennes. The moment he got off the wagon, numerous soldiers, including Levak, were shocked.

A statue of a beautiful boy walked down from the carriage as if a famous sculptor had put all his heart and soul into it.

His appearance was astonishing enough to cause a brief illusion.

“… … Is that Viscount Ardennes?”

“Yes, as a 4th circle mage, it will be a pretty big power.”

At Ryard’s answer, Levach raised his gaze and met Kayneth’s eyes.

“Viscount Ardennes, would it be all right if I ask you just one question?”

“Yes, of course.”

Kayneth nodded happily.

Lebaque paused for a while, then slowly opened his mouth.

“Have you had any practical experience against humans, not monsters… … .”

“I have no experience in war, but I have experienced several battles with criminals.”

“It’s rude, but sometimes there are people who hesitate about killing enemies… … .”

“It’s okay if you don’t have to worry about that part.”

Levach showed a suspicious look. Does a boy who is only 14 years old have a murder experience?

However, Levaq shuddered for a moment at the serious atmosphere created by Keynes and the eyes unlike those of a boy.

‘This I… … To a child who is only 14 years old… … .’

Levach bit his lip for a moment and looked away.

Ryard, who was watching the scene, smiled and asked for an explanation of the current situation.

“Kuh, keuh, according to the current information, the enemy is building a fence about 5km away from this campsite.”

“The scale… … .”

“It has been confirmed that there are about 50,000 people.”

The situation was as reported to the imperial family.

Ryard looked at the map and asked about the enemy’s armament.

“There are 10,000 archers, 1,000 cavalry, and 40,000 infantry. The cavalry must keep in mind the possibility of moving as a detached unit, and form a formation of soldiers… … .”

Lebaque explained the allied defense formation he had envisioned step by step. So that Lyard can understand it in a little more detail.

And Ryard, who had been quietly listening to the explanation, nodded once and glanced at Keynes.

“Certainly not bad… … . What does Viscount Ardennes think?”

“Yes, I also agree with the strategy devised by Baron Eild June.”

Levaq looked at Keynes with the eyes of ‘Yeah, what do you guys know?’

From noble mtl dot com

But Keynes’ remarks were not over yet.

“however… … .”

Kayneth pointed to the left corner of the map as if he had something to add.

“I think it is necessary to confirm in advance whether the enemy is hiding somewhere.”

“This place… … .”

“Yes, the Forest of Ren, located only 3km from the current Allied encampment. Unless the enemies are stupid… … No, those red wolves would have confirmed that they were being scouted.”

Levach frowned.

“Is there any need for that?”

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being careful. Earl Jurumus, also known as the Red Wolf, has staged similar situations several times in the past. After fixing the opponent’s gaze forward, it is a strategy to move and destroy the hidden troops. If even cavalry were left standing by in this forest, the damage to the Imperial Army would be so great that it is difficult to guess.”

Despite Kayneth’s answer, Lebaque couldn’t hide his dissatisfied expression.

As if a young aristocrat with no war experience knew anything.

It seems that the dazed look in Kayneth’s eyes a while ago hurt his pride.

Chapter 108

108. Harperus War (4)

“… … Even the process of Count Jermus leading his troops and crossing the border. All of that has been confirmed by our scouts.”

“okay. However, according to the information I personally investigated, I received a report that the Kingdom of Spert secretly sent workers to the surroundings of Ren’s Forest for several days.”

The Kingdom of Spert, which belonged to the Northern Alliance, was also a country bordering the northwestern part of the empire.

“Workers to the forest… … ?”

“Yes, that’s why I was assuming that logging made a path for troops to move.”

“But it… … .”

It’s an unbelievable story.

Cutting down those huge streets to make way for soldiers to move? It was an absurd operation that was no different from labor.

For this reason, Lebak considered Keynes’ speculation far-fetched.

“Could you send out a reconnaissance party if possible? Depending on the size of the enemy, you may need to reorganize your strategy. Of course, if my guess is wrong, we can deal with the allied forces as we are now.”

If not all the enemies in front of you, it could be dangerous in many ways. To the extent that the existing operation collapsed in an instant.

Levach touched his chin as if he was lost in thought for a moment.

How should a 14-year-old boy with no experience in war react when he asks for a reconnaissance party?

Certainly, the actions of the Allied Forces, which had only moved a small force so far, were strangely erratic. Is it a movement as if it is trying to catch its eye on them?

If possible, he wanted to ignore Kayneth’s opinion, but right in front of his nose was the third prince, and there was some truth in Kayneth’s remarks, so Lebaque calmly opened his mouth.

“Would it be okay if I asked where the information you researched came from?”

“It is an intelligence organization operating in the Ardennes family. And there was also the cooperation of the Rockspell family.”

“If it’s Roxpell… … .”

“Yes, it is an aristocratic family that runs the best-known intelligence organization in Korea.”

Lebak nodded once, but still had a doubtful look on his face.

“If the enemy attacks right now… … .”

“I don’t think there’s any problem with moving a small reconnaissance party. Rather, to go into the forest, a small group would be the most appropriate.”

Kenneth never loses a word.

No, even Levach would have known. I just didn’t want to admit it easily.

And Ryard, who had been quietly listening to the conversation between the two, rested his chin for a while.

“Really logging in this forest? this street… … entire?”

Ryard skimmed the map with his index finger.

Seeing that, Keynes nodded.

“Yes, and a number of soldiers armed with heavy armor have also been identified in the southern region of Spert Kingdom.”

“When exactly is that?”

“A month ago.”

“Hmm, but even if the size of the enemy changes, it is too late to request reinforcements from the center.”

Kayneth nodded at Lyard’s remark.

“Yes, most likely. But with my magic, it should be possible to block the enemy’s path. Obviously, the time it takes to get out of the forest will be greatly delayed.”

“… … ‘If’ Viscount Ardenne’s information is true, we’ll have to hurry up and take countermeasures or hand over our troops.”

It felt like the word ‘if’ was particularly emphasized, but Ryard let out a small sigh at Levak’s remarks and immediately ordered a reconnaissance party to be sent.

After the meeting was over, and Lebark left, Ryard looked at Keynes, who remained in the commander’s office.

“To say that we got cooperation from the Roxpell family… … .”

“Yes, that is a lie.”

Kenneth answered confidently with a refreshing smile.

At that, Ryard shook his head while laughing as if he was dumbfounded.

“Still, the information itself is certain. I just borrowed that name to convince Baron Eild June.”

“Well, the way Baron Eild Jun looked at you was unusual. It’s like saying, ‘A kid with no experience in war.’”

“Ahahahahaha… … .”

Kayneth laughed awkwardly and scratched her head.

And that night, at Kayneth’s request, an imperial scout consisting of about 10 people bypassed the plain and ran into the forest of Ren, and three days passed.

The allied forces did not budge at a distance of 5 km for three days. They showed no particular move to start a war.

‘… … It’s definitely weird. It wouldn’t be strange if there was a conflict by now.’

The moment Ryard thought so, Lebark asked permission for a preemptive strike with an urgent face.

“It is possible that they are waiting for reinforcements in the rear! Before that, a preemptive strike… … !”

However, Ryard shook his head despite Levak’s request.

It was nailed that there would be no special instructions until the reconnaissance team returned.

After leaving the commander’s office, Lebaque clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth.

“Damn it, on the day that reinforcements really arrive in the enemy’s camp… … .”

“Let’s not go to war, we will have to withdraw urgently to the rearguard.”

The adjutant added Lebak’s end.
