The Immortal Genius Spearman (129)
Three days have passed since the departure of the Kaion unit.

Although we were moving at a fairly fast speed, we were only able to reach halfway to our destination because we were moving with the main force.

During a brief pause in the advance, Jerka approached Diana, who was resting.

“Sir, will the Empire really come down to the capital again? They might just be going through the motions.”

“Even if that’s the case, we must move. The Spanish Kingdom and our kingdom are currently allied.”

“Ha, by the way, I wish I could speed things up. It looks like I’ll be sleeping rough for the next three days.”

“There’s nothing I can do even if I complain.”

Since I was moving with the main force, I couldn’t increase my speed alone.

At Diana’s words, Jerka grumbled and returned to her seat.

And then.

“Are you the captain of the Kion unit?”

A man approached and asked Diana.

Diana shook her head at him.

“This is Private Diana, your deputy commander. What is your name and rank?”

“The sergeant is the deputy commander?”

He didn’t answer Diana’s question and just looked dumbfounded.

He glanced up and down at Diana before saying:

“I thought it would be different since it had such a great reputation, but it seems rumors are often exaggerated.”

“……yes?”

“I am Captain Ichil, commander of the 3rd Platoon of the 2nd Division of the 6th Army Corps. Where is the deputy commander?”

“I am returning.”

“Tsk, what are you doing emptying your unit during an exhibition like this?”

Ichylus frowned openly and scolded him.

Diana’s eyes suddenly became sharp at his rude behavior.

Diana said.

“I understand that you are of a higher rank, but I think you should be careful about what you say and do here. We are an independent unit of the 6th Corps. We only follow the orders of the Corps Commander. Please refrain from using condescending language or behavior toward us as if we were our superiors.”

“……what?”

Captain Ichilus’ eyes were filled with anger.

Because he was so shocked that a crazy sergeant like him was talking back to him.

Ichylus said with a laugh.

“You’re a little bit famous, so you’re acting like you’re arrogant. Alright, I’ll be looking forward to your performance in this battle. Even if it’s just an exaggerated rumor.”

Then Captain Ichilus turns around and returns to his unit.

Looking at him, Diana felt her anger rising.

“What’s that kid?”

“It was a bit awkward talking, what happened?”

He shook his head as he looked at Kyle and Jerka who approached him.

“It’s nothing, the dog was just barking.”

Then he turned his body and looked forward.

Damian will be joining us soon.

however…….

‘What is this strong feeling… … .’

Diana just fiddled with her sword with an indifferent expression, as if she felt a sense of foreboding.

* * *

Chomp!

A piece of dark brown cloth fluttering in the air began to slowly fall to the floor.

The moment when a piece of cloth fluttering in the wind finally falls gently to the floor.

“… … Heh heh heh heh heh.”

Heinel burst out into laughter that he had been holding back.

‘In such a short period of time… … .’

The bet I had offered to Damien from the beginning was one he could not fulfill.

Damien, who lacks the ‘class’ to speak coldly, would not even be able to brush against his own collar.

But this blow just now.

Heinel looked at the hem of his clothes that had been cut off.

“It’s quite an expensive piece of clothing, what a waste.”

“… … .”

But Damian didn’t hear Heinel muttering like that.

Because the sensation of the blow that had just passed through his hand and through the window still lingered in his body.

“……ah.”

Damien let out a soft sigh, as if he had finally come to his senses.

At that sound, Heinel stuck the sword he was holding into the floor and looked at Damian.

“How does it feel?”

“… … I’m not sure. It feels like I was dreaming for a moment.”

“A dream. That’s a wonderful expression in its own way.”

Well, if it was your first time receiving that blow, you might think you were dreaming.

In the past, Heinel was like that too.

“Don’t forget that feeling. Once you’ve done it once, it won’t be hard to do it twice, and once you’ve done it twice, you’ll be able to do it consecutively.”

“Was this the training for?”

“That’s right. Of course, that doesn’t mean I can guarantee it will work.”

It is clear which path Damian must take.

Heinel was just standing in the direction he was supposed to go and just waving his hand.

‘I never thought… I would grow this fast.’

Within the kingdom, there are quite a few promising prospects that Heinel knows of.

Among them, there were some who could be called geniuses without any exaggeration.

‘but…….’

The appearance of this boy will completely change the landscape of the Baroque kingdom.

No matter how skilled they are, there is no comparison between them, who have not yet left their family’s embrace, and Damian, who is clashing with them directly on the battlefield.

‘It seems that the future of the kingdom is a little brighter.’

Heinel said to Damian with a faint smile.

“However, this attack only cut off the collar, so we should consider the bet to be still ongoing.”

“That’s right. My spear hasn’t reached Heinel’s body yet.”

Although there were regrets, Damien had made a huge step forward.

As he said, it was a priority to make good use of this feeling and become proficient at it.

Then Damien bowed his head to him.

“Thank you so much. I will never forget what you taught me, Heinel.”

“Haha, what has this old man done? Shouldn’t he be returning to his unit by now?”

“Yes, that’s right. I think we should head straight for the Spanish Kingdom now.”

“The current situation on the continent is turning quite dangerous. It would be best to be careful at all times and places.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

Damien nodded. Then, Philip brought out a horse and gave it to Damien.

It was a different horse than the one Damien had ridden.

“This is… … .”

“He’s a guy with a physique like steel. With him, it’ll be a lot quicker to get back to the unit.”

“Thank you for your consideration.”

With those words, Damien quickly mounted his horse.

Damian looked a little surprised at the solid muscles he felt the moment he sat down.

Even for someone like me who doesn’t know much about horses, it felt completely different from ordinary horses.

And Damian looked at Heinel and said.

“I’ll see you again later. Thank you for your time.”

“Haha, you’re always welcome.”

“then.”

After saying his final farewells to Heinel, Damian rode his horse straight out of the forest.

Because as the Empire pushed down towards the Spanish Kingdom, the Kingdom’s army had already moved to stop them.

And when Damien leaves… … .

“Belipt.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Send a letter to the palace.”

“… … Do you plan on moving yourself?”

Philip asked Heinel with a slightly surprised expression.

Since Damian came, Heinel has been acting quite differently than before.

Heinel nodded and answered.

“Can’t we just stand back and do nothing?”

Aren’t there so many young people with so much potential just crumbling away without ever blooming?

“It is also our job to protect them and help them grow.”

furthermore.

“Aren’t the Auror Masters already taking action in the Empire?”

There is an Aura Master for the Aura Master.

It was a story that was like a formula that no one could deny.

I just couldn’t tell him because I was keeping an eye on Heinel.

Philip nodded to Heinel’s will.

“I will prepare it right away.”

Philipp then enters the mansion.

Looking at him, Heinel also started walking into the mansion to prepare.

Galberon, who had completely destroyed the borders of the Kingdom of Tirkan and was advancing towards the capital, immediately began moving west with his soldiers.

It was to cross the western border and move to the Spanish kingdom.

“Are the Baroque Kingdom’s reinforcements on the move?”

“We received word from the search party earlier that as the 3rd Corps Commander General Esteban’s army began to move, the Baroque Kingdom’s army also began to move.”

“… … Is it really as he said?”

Galberon felt a chill run down his spine for a moment.

Isn’t it as if the entire situation on the continent is moving in the palm of his hand?

Galberon looked at the soldiers who had stopped for a moment.

It has already been three days since we left the Kingdom of Tirkan and headed towards the Kingdom of Spain.

It may not be a fast speed, but it is a speed that matches the flow appropriately.

“Then, if we continue like this for about three days… … will we be able to strike the enemy’s rear?”

“If it’s according to his plan, then yes. But we’ll move a reconnaissance team in advance just in case there’s an unexpected variable.”

Galberon nodded to his adjutant’s words.

No matter who comes, they won’t be able to stop them, but it will be a priority to adapt to the strategist’s plan as much as possible.

“Send out a reconnaissance party right away. And give the soldiers orders to leave again in an hour. We should get moving now.”

“All right!”

As soon as the adjutant disappeared, Galberon looked in the direction of the capital of the Spanish Kingdom.

‘The next three days.’

If we can strike behind the Baroque Kingdom reinforcements advancing north and cut them down for sure.

‘This time, I can completely absorb the Spanish Kingdom.’

In fact, isn’t it a kingdom that doesn’t even have the capacity to defend itself, except for the capital?

The reason the Baroque Kingdom helps them like this is because they can absorb the southern region of the Spanish Kingdom.

But their plans will not come to fruition.

“After all, everything on this land belongs to the empire.”

And now that they have decided to do so.

“Hoo hoo hoo hoo, this will be fun.”

Galberon let out a small laugh.

Although the operation that was supposed to start was delayed due to a slight problem.

‘Thanks to that stupid Piaren, a stage has been created for me to perform on.’

Galberon was satisfied with the current situation.

So, from now on, there is only one thing to do.

“We must make a proper example of those who dare to rebel against the Empire.”

Galberon smiled broadly as he thought about the fools of the Baroque Kingdom that he would soon encounter.

* * *

They were reinforcements from the Baroque Kingdom moving to the capital of the Spanish Kingdom in line with the movements of the imperial army moving south.

I had already entered the Spanish Kingdom several times, so I was somewhat familiar with it.

“It feels like our legion is always getting screwed.”

“We can’t help it since we’re in charge of the northern part. But I’ve heard rumors that there will be a large-scale reward after this support ends.”

“Really? Well, we’ve been a bit tough on ourselves lately, haven’t we?”

Complaints and discontent.

And there was talk about the small sense of anticipation that arose within it.

“… … I feel like the atmosphere is really strange these days.”

“what?”

“Since when have we been deployed to combat so often? At best, it was once a year.”

“… … .”

Someone’s words made the atmosphere suddenly turn cold.

Because it wasn’t a wrong statement.

Even if he were to be deployed to a real battlefield, it would only happen once a year, as he said.

But recently, due to the Empire’s movements, haven’t they been sent to the battlefield one after another?

“I heard that almost half of the unit that went to support the Spanish Kingdom last time died. My friend was in the 1st Division and he told me… … It was truly hell.”

“… … Will it happen again this time?”

“But this time there’s no talk about the Auror Master.”

“That’s right, I heard the Auror Master went to the Kingdom of Tirkan.”

To them, the Auror Master was almost like a ghost.

But I haven’t heard of any Aura Masters in this battlefield.

In that case… wouldn’t the risk be greatly reduced?

The soldiers were marching while chatting about this and that.

But then.

Phew oh oh oh oh!

A sudden trumpet sound is heard.

The soldiers’ expressions hardened at the sound of the trumpet.

“what’s the matter?”

“Hey hey, what is it? What is it?!”

In an instant, the entire army began to stir. And then someone shouted.

“Enemy forces appear! It’s an enemy attack!”
