The Immortal Genius Spearman - Chapter 98

The Immortal Genius Spearman (98)
It was a full two years earlier than the originally planned date.

Damien had a serious expression on his face sooner than expected.

“What’s wrong?”

“It seems like the Empire is moving faster than I thought.”

“Weren’t there already signs?”

Damien shook his head at Diana’s words.

“There were signs, but they haven’t completely cleared out the surrounding kingdoms yet. And… … .”

I never expected that the Spanish Kingdom would rise up against the Empire so openly.

It was clear that other circumstances were involved.

‘Could it be that this is due to the influence of the Kion Unit?’

Originally, the empire led by the Spanish Kingdom was supposed to swallow up the Kingdom of Irene.

But the first step was creaky due to the Kion unit… … .

‘I guess I should think of it as seeing the possibility.’

The direct intervention of the Baroque kingdom and the subsequent ruin of the imperial event were a lifeline to the Spanish kingdom.

So, without looking back, he requested an alliance with the Baroque Kingdom and requested reinforcements.

‘Then… … how will our kingdom move?’

The Spanish kingdom is collapsing.

The moment you join hands with them, you should consider that you have completely turned your back on the empire and become its enemy.

“Shall we move the army?”

Diana asked Damien.

And Damian couldn’t readily answer that question.

“The gain is too small compared to the risk. Even if the Spanish Kingdom were to recover, it would only be a part of their territory. But… … .”

If, on the contrary, the Baroque kingdom were to join hands with other neighboring kingdoms and expand towards the empire.

“Then the story would be different.”

“……yes?”

“Let’s just wait and see. It’s not like we can decide anyway.”

But one thing I can say for sure:

Whether you participate now or not.

‘Anyway, we are bound to clash with the Empire sooner or later.’

And the higher-ups will know that too.

* * *

“It’s too dangerous.”

“One, nothing will change if we just sit back and watch.”

Kiaren spoke strongly, looking at the ministers present.

“Please allow us to send troops, Your Majesty. If we miss this opportunity and the Empire swallows up the Spanian Kingdom, the Tirkan Kingdom, and the Ceylonian Kingdom, then we will be unable to stop it.”

Even though they have the great Artian kingdom behind them, they are the only ones who will have to endure the enemy’s attacks at first.

The Artian Kingdom was able to defend itself without taking any damage at all.

Kiaren said while looking at the map.

“We must think calmly. This could be the starting point of a war between our kingdom and the empire.”

The only fortunate thing is that the Kingdom of Irene has formed an alliance with the Kingdom of Baroque due to the deployment of the earlier Kion unit.

“But in this situation, the Spanish Kingdom reached out to us instead of the Empire. From the Spanish Kingdom’s perspective, it was a huge gamble.”

It is a huge number that could lead to the destruction of the country if it fails.

Naturally, they too are in a situation where they have no choice but to fight the empire with all their might.

“If that happens, the Triple Alliance system of the Kingdoms of Baroque, Spanian, and Irene will be completed naturally. If we can bring in the Kingdoms of Tirkan and Ceylonian here, or if not, we can wage war against the Empire without involving them and head north… … .”

Bam.

Kiaren pointed to a place on the map with the stick he was holding.

“We can swallow up the southern part of the empire and cede it to the Spanish Kingdom, and absorb some of the Spanish Kingdom’s territory into our kingdom.”

Then, the Spanish Kingdom can naturally be put forward as the first shield of the empire.

From the Baroque kingdom’s point of view, it would have been a great advantage if everything had gone according to plan.

“Hmm… … What do the other ministers think?”

“Your Majesty. The fact that the Empire is moving in this way must mean that they too are confident.”

“That’s right. According to the spies currently planted in the Empire… … a new Auror Master has been born in the Empire.”

“… … What?”

“Auror Master? So you’re saying the numbers have increased?”

“That is very likely.”

The Auror Master alone is a factor that greatly increases national power.

If by any chance another Auror Master emerges from the Empire, it makes sense that they would suddenly make such a move.

but.

“War is not fought by one individual.”

Kiaren spoke, calming the confused atmosphere.

“Of course, the power of the Auror Masters cannot be ignored, but it is not they who will decide the war.”

“Hmm… … .”

“but…….”

There were many ministers who hesitated despite Kiaren’s persuasion. And then.

“I don’t know what you all are thinking, but I feel like we’re overlooking something very important right now.”

People’s eyes turned to the words of Matheurs, the prime minister of the Baroque kingdom.

Then Mateus said:

“The point of General Kiaren is that if we don’t raise an army now, we will have to deal with the empire that has swallowed up the surrounding kingdoms, including the Spanish Kingdom.”

“you’re right.”

Kiaren answered.

In any case, the war with the empire has already been decided.

Since the Empire has made up its mind and shown its teeth, they too must fight in the most advantageous situation possible.

“Perhaps this is our opportunity. If we do not join hands with the Spanish Kingdom now, they will fall completely to the Empire.”

“Commander of the 6th Corps.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

King Benjerden Baroque III of the Baroque Kingdom, who had been quietly watching the meeting, called for Kiaren.

Kiaren quickly knelt down on one knee and bowed his head before Benzerden.

Benzerden said.

“How many soldiers are available to move now?”

“I have placed ten thousand troops on standby at the border so that they can cross over to the Spanish kingdom immediately. I also have three knightly orders and one independent unit ready to go.”

Kiaren is fully prepared to depart as soon as the order is given.

Benzerden turned his head and looked at the other ministers.

“Listen, you gentlemen.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

The ministers bowed their heads and shouted at Benzerden’s words, which seemed to indicate that a decision had been made.

Benzerden said to him.

“Jim thinks this is the course of history. It is only natural that those with power want to use that power and show their ambitions.”

But that doesn’t mean we can just sit back and let it happen.

Benzerden put a period to it.

“From now on, our kingdom will raise an army and fight against the empire that threatens the peace of the continent. Send a messenger to the Spanish kingdom with the army immediately. And Mateurs.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Communicate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to inform the Kingdom of Iren, as well as the Kingdom of Ceylon and the Kingdom of Tirkan, so that they can strengthen their alliance.”

“All right.”

“Commander of the 6th Corps.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

When Kiaren answered, Benjerden said.

“Move the troops on the border immediately to the Spanish Kingdom. Also, have the other legion commanders move their troops quickly in anticipation of possible battles elsewhere.”

“Yes, I understand!”

This has been confirmed.

I’m talking about war with the empire.

After the meeting was over, the ministers began to hurriedly walk to where they needed to go.

* * *

“It’s a sortie.”

As soon as the order was given, the Kion unit members quickly gathered their equipment and lined up.

Then Leonhark looked at Damian and said.

“The atmosphere seems ominous. Be careful.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll do well and come back.”

The Kion unit will assist the 6th Legion’s forces by disrupting the enemy and attacking from the flank.

‘I don’t know how many troops the Spanish Kingdom has, but… … .’

Since returning, it must be seen as a clash of ridiculous forces.

“Perhaps this battle will be on a completely different scale than any we have fought so far.”

The battle they had fought earlier was also of considerable scale, but didn’t they retreat the moment the Empire’s commander died?

Considering that, it couldn’t be said to be that dangerous a battle.

one.

“There is a lot at stake in this battle. Let me tell you clearly: do not show mercy to the enemy in front of you. And do not hesitate. If you become weak-willed, that place will be your grave.”

and…….

“So that everyone doesn’t die and can come back here again.”

That’s what Damien always emphasizes.

Don’t die.

At that command, the Kion unit shouted loudly.

“All right!”

“Kaion unit, deploying.”

The target is the Spanish Kingdom.

The Kaion unit began to move.

* * *

“… … Is this the choice you ended up making?”

“Hoo hoo hoo, knight of the empire. Your sword may be sharp, but it cannot cut through a person’s will.”

King of the Spanish Kingdom.

The Italian Spaniard eventually made his final decision.

Even if they all die.

“I refuse to be your dog.”

Itelior broke through the impenetrable siege of the Empire and sent letters to the Kingdom of Baroque as well as the surrounding countries, requesting an alliance.

Even though most of the royal family, including himself, will die, the Spanish kingdom will not fall.

Besides, in the midst of all the chaos, wasn’t that child the only one who was smuggled out of the palace?

‘That’s fine.’

If the royal bloodline continues, the Spanish kingdom will not be destroyed.

Itelior saw the knight of the empire, Fiarren Tail.

“You said you were the third Auror Master? But, judging by your presence here, it seems you aren’t treated very well either.”

Itelior is already prepared for death.

What can’t he say?

But Fiaren smiled slightly at Itelior’s words.

“I didn’t know you could afford to talk like that with your mouth open.”

“Hehehe, what could a dog of the empire have to fear? Let alone an abandoned dog that doesn’t even get recognition from its owner… … Sob!”

Fiaren, who was listening to Itelior’s story, reached out with the sword he was holding and stabbed his shoulder.

The sword stuck in Itelior’s shoulder spun around.

“Kuaaaah!”

Itelior’s scream echoed throughout the hall, accompanied by the sound of something snapping.

Piaren said to him.

“You said such useless things, so you ended up losing the use of your arm.”

“Piaren, who had cut off all the tendons connecting his shoulder and arm, spoke calmly.

But soon, the eyes looking at him strangely became filled with life.

“An abandoned dog… … Well, considering my situation, I guess that’s not a wrong statement.”

But if we look a little deeper, who would dare to call Piaren an abandoned dog?

“King of a ruined country. Listen carefully. I am not an abandoned dog… … It would be more appropriate to say that I am a wolf that has yet to find an owner.”

Phew!

“Huh!”

As he pulled out his sword, red blood gushed out from the wound.

Piaren roughly wiped the blood from his sword onto the king’s clothes.

And said.

“Oh, by the way, it looks like a bunch of rats are running out of the palace.”

“… … !”

At that moment, Itelior’s eyes shook greatly.

Because it was quite predictable what he meant by a bunch of rats.

Itelior shuddered and shouted.

“Yes, you!”

“Don’t worry. I’ll be back here soon. Oh, of course.”

Piaren’s eyes sparkled as she paused for a moment.

Soon the corners of his mouth went up.

“They’ll all be dead when we get back, though. That last remaining… … royal brat.”

“Inoooooooooooooooooooo!”

Although Itelior shouted loudly in anger, Piaren simply chuckled and laughed.
