Episode 270. To think of it as an honor (1)
“I will go to fight the devil, the madman…”
“Yes, Your Majesty. Please give me permission for the kill operation.”
The Imperial Palace.
Resting her chin on her desk in her office, Arya studied Schluse’s face closely.
A few days ago, Schluse had been pale enough to show his veins blue, but now he was standing on his feet with a healthy face.
However, within his dead eyes, an even deeper abyss seemed to sink.
The eyes were obviously emotionless, but for some reason, anger could be seen in them.
“Do you have any plans?”
“I’m going to invade his stronghold.”
“Are you talking about the midfield swamp?”
“Yes.”
The Marsh was a land said to be inhabited by madmen.
It was also a place where wanted criminals and escaped prisoners gathered to form a village.
Now it was fortified because the remnants of Asylum had flocked to camp.
“There is no guarantee that he will be there.”
“Probably not. Most likely he’s away. So he’ll bring him in.”
“How does he pull it in?”
“He’ll kill his people one by one. Then he won’t be able to stop showing up.”
“Wait a minute… I don’t understand…”
The ‘people’.
Certainly, the madman lived like a king, leading the people who lived in the swamp.
However, there was no way that the self-respecting demon who looked at humans like bugs would foolishly step into a trap just because a few humans died.
At least, considering Arya’s common sense, that was the case.
“He must come. His eyes will turn and he will come running.”
“Can you give me a compelling reason?”
“It’s difficult.”
“Tsk… I’m sorry. Kill the demon madman and come back safely.”
“I will, Your Majesty.”
I can’t understand why.
It must have been information that Schluss found out from the future.
A story beyond common sense that no one in the past could understand no matter how much he explained it.
For example, the madman actually loves the people who live in the swamp so much that he can’t see them dying…
It was difficult to comprehend, but I decided to do it because the guy who saw the future was talking about it.
Above all, he couldn’t help but give permission if he saw the current Schluse.
Schlus had eyes as if he had given up on everything.
No, rather than giving up, he had the eyes of a man who had staked everything in his life on revenge.
Schlus burnt the life of a girl he cared about and obtained a new life.
He said he would take revenge, but even Arya couldn’t dare stop him.
“Then let’s set off right away. May I take the Commander of the Holy Knights Fellain and an infantry battalion?”
“Borrow it. But you’re leaving now? Are you sure you’re going to play at night?”
“Yes. I plan to burn the town down all night to make it stand out.”
“·······.
Aria’s mouth opened slightly.
She bowed her head slightly to her, and Schluss turned behind her and walked out of her office.
Time was running out to contact Commander Roman to call out an infantry battalion and depart.
‘It’s already been done.’
Mine Kill the madman and take away its power.
Since Schluss Heinkel of the Parallel World also succeeded, it wasn’t impossible.
The only problem was when Tilpitz and the madman attacked in pincers.
So I decided to break the trap in a rather brutal way.
The seemingly infinitely cruel madman actually feels affection for the humans who have lived together for a long time.
The moment they hear that they are being brutally slaughtered, they will come running right away.
Tilpitz kills the madman before he fully recovers from his injuries, absorbs the power, and defeats the Tilpitz who came later.
That was Schluss Heinkel’s plan.
***
It was not known at all that I was alive.
Most people probably think I’m still at home today and tomorrow.
So the soldiers in front of me now, except for my aides, were the first to see me in good shape.
“Sir Schluss Heinkel…”
“He was alive…”
“Shh. Quiet.”
120 Soldiers lined up in an orderly manner in front of me.
Originally, I was going to take out a battalion, but I accepted Roman’s advice that there seemed to be too many people for a surprise attack, and I decided to take out a company in moderation.
Originally, it was a reconnaissance company under the command of the Magical Bombardment Battalion, but it was an elite company that was heavily armed and marched 400km a week.
However, no matter how strong a unit is, it is doomed if it encounters a stupid commander.
Or, even if the soldiers don’t trust the commander, it’s the same.
“Don’t answer, just listen. I know that there have been rumors about me lately. I have no intention of covering up the truth or not. I’m just going to reveal one thing here. I, Schluss Heinkel, are alive. It exists and is in good health. That’s all you guys need to know. From now on, I’m going to attack the swamp, the stronghold of the demon madman and Asylum.”
“·······!”
I could see the soldiers’ eyes widening.
It seemed like he was trying to suppress his agitation, but it was impossible to hide his surprised expression for a very brief moment.
“It’s a place where even if you attack in regimental units, you have to return after a series of tedious battles. But this time it’s different. I’ll be in the lead. It’s a simple mission where all you have to do is point your spear at the enemy who runs away from an ambush. During the battle, Demons may appear. But don’t worry. I will suffocate the demons. Everyone prepare to die. Then I will do my best to save you guys.”
The goal is to revive everyone.
He didn’t dare say it out of his mouth, fearing that he would act like a coward if he said it straight away.
The Marsh is only one of those people who are reluctant to go into battle because of the sheer number of Asylum troops, and the terrain itself is not suitable for defense.
Rather than not being able to attack in the past, it was closer to the place where the priority was postponed because I didn’t feel the reason to attack.
However, if you take this opportunity to annihilate the troops and even kill the demons, the situation will turn completely upside down.
It’s a bonus that I get power equal to that of Tilpitz.
“I will depart in 10 minutes. The march will proceed quietly. You can omit the answer.”
“·······.”
While the soldiers scattered and prepared to depart, I got down from the podium and looked at the road.
Since we had to make a quiet surprise attack, we planned to use the mountain roads that were not noticed by people rather than the main road.
It will take a little while, but you should be able to get there before midnight and start the operation.
“Schlus Heinkel.”
“Oh, are you here?”
“I heard about it. I’m sorry.”
“·······.”
At some point, the heart locker next to me hesitantly started talking to me.
Thanks to that, the already awkward atmosphere became even more awkward.
I opened the box with a sigh and handed the bag inside to Hurt Locker.
Having received it, Hurt Locker flinched as if surprised by its weight.
“What is this?”
“Heukgang powder. It was airlifted in a hurry. You can use it freely.”
“How much is it?”
“I don’t ask for money. Just take it.”
“Suheu-eup. I’m anxious…”
This bastard sees me as a robber.
From now on, even if I handed a weapon to the guy I’ll be entrusting my back with, I’d still have to be suspicious.
I thought again that even if I made the main character wrong, I made it wrong for a long time.
“Are you really at odds, Schluss Heinkel?”
“Do you come all the way here to raise doubts?”
“No. If it were you, I thought you would go to the mines alone. Unbeknownst to you, the imperial troops and escorts dragged me along…”
“Kwang -in, he will definitely give revenge to that baby. He will kill his life after killing, burning, and taking away everything he cares about.”
Certainly, if it were yesterday’s me, I might have rushed into the marsh by myself and set up a mess.
But I am not a vengeful demon.
This means that there is reason left to make a rational decision.
Enough to take a more certain and thorough revenge.
.

“Hi-san… Does this make sense? To not move until it’s clear that Schluss Heinkel is dead.”
The madman stretched out as he groaned and stretched out in his rocking chair.
I have been instructed by Tirpitz not to move for the time being.
At first, I thought I was insane.
Staying still while fanatic forces are being destroyed here and there.
At this rate, the power to worship Mine as the ruler would disappear.
“I was scared properly…”
Tilpitz is in a frightened state.
There was no other way to understand it.
Though his entire body was crushed by Schluss Heinkel and he lay down, fear must have been imprinted on a genetic basis.
Indeed, that Schluss Heinkel died of a burst heart in my grasp.
I don’t know if he’s still breathing, but at least he’s sure to die soon.
But what on earth is it that you’re so scared that you’re begging me not to move?
“Ha. I just want to charge into Jedo. I can’t.”
Tirpitz’s strategy was like this.
Currently, Asylum’s forces are scattered and isolated.
When it becomes certain that Schluss Heinkel’s death is certain, then Mine directly dismantles the siege and attacks the big city.
The main forces of the Imperial Army slowly enter the siege after annihilating the demons, cutting off supplies, and besieging the islands.
There are annihilation cannons deployed in the islands, so direct attacks are dangerous.
As a madman, I don’t know about that, I just feel like smashing something.
“What?”
At that moment, something flashed at the end of his field of vision.
It was a fleeting flash.
He turned his gaze toward it, but the pitch-black sky did not shine again.
As I was about to turn my head again, wondering if I had seen it wrong, another flash of red shimmered.
“What…”
Paying attention to the senses of the whole body, the madman was able to sense that it was an explosion.
A weak vibration was coming from the direction where the light flashed.
Over the forest, in a faraway place, explosions were occurring irregularly and sparks were burning.
It was a pretty big explosion.
It could blow up several buildings and burn down an entire village…
“Oh.”
It was only then that I noticed what was in the other direction.
Wetlands.
A stinking land inhabited by criminals who escaped in search of protection from madmen.
The place was on fire now.
At some point, black smoke and bright light were rising in the sky.
To the point of completely engulfing the wet ground in flames.
The madman stood there blankly and opened his mouth.
– Madman! Help me… aaah!
-Me, what is that! It’s a monster! Monster······!
Through communication magic, screams and rescue signals were continuously transmitted along with crackling sounds.
With his fists clenched, the madman gnashed his teeth.
Anyway, it seemed that the imperial army had made a good decision and launched a surprise attack.
In that case, I couldn’t help it.
Even if I run from now on, it will be too late.
They were people who would die anyway.
-Shu, Schluss Heinkel! It’s Schluss Heinkel! Aww!
At that time, I heard a name that bothered me.
Schlus Heinkel.
No way. There was no way he could have been alive.
It must all be an illusion.
So…
“Right arm. He is the enemy of my right arm. So… That’s why it can’t be helped…”
I have to go check it out.
I wonder if he really came back alive.
It was never to blame for the screams of the dying.

The madman ran in the direction of the flames, dripping his blood from his hard-bitten lips.
