“Here for two.”
Not long after Yeo-myeong, who had broken through the adults’ banter, ordered a meal, various foods were brought to the table.
Food that didn’t seem like dumplings or bread stuffed with meat and carrots, and baked ham piled high on top of mashed potatoes.
Fermented bread with a great sour taste, butter with spicy spices, and rich fish stew.
Appetizing pickled vegetables and fried beans, magic-grilled beef ribs and sausages, and…
spam.
It was such a huge portion that it could hardly be considered a serving for two, but Yeo-myeong and Seti started eating without saying anything.
I was hungry, and more importantly, there was a similar amount of food piled up on other tables.
All the food was delicious. From the ribs to the pickled vegetables, you could feel the care put into every single thing.
Is it a special day? If I eat like this on a regular basis, I think the chaebol family will be ruined.
Dawn thought as she munched on the perfectly cooked ribs. The combination of salty gravy and texture was exquisite.
Is this a celebration of Salome’s survival? or not…
At that time, the head of the former Dumea family suddenly sat across from the table.
-What about the food? Pretty good, right? My daughter’s opinion is that no matter what you eat, you should eat it right.
“… “That’s a great theory.”
When Dawn swallowed her ribs and answered, the matriarch smiled with satisfaction.
Soon after, the magic tower owner who lost his money shouted.
“Dawn, aren’t you curious as to why the Dumea family prepared such a generous meal?”
“… ?”
Do you even read thoughts now? As Yeo-myeong looked at him while chewing the sausage, the Mage Tower said as he scanned the entire restaurant.
“For some people, this might be their last supper.”
“… .”
“To put it a little more bluntly, right before the battle… “Isn’t it the law to hand out plenty of food and alcohol to the soldiers?”
A reminder of the remaining fight. After hearing those words, she unconsciously followed the gaze of the Magic Tower Lord.
Throughout the restaurant, many Gasols were laughing and chatting while filling their bellies.
But is it because of what the Mage Tower said? Dawn could read the heavy tension beneath their expressions.
While Dawn, whose throat was burning, quietly drank water, the head of the Dumea family looked with a straight face.
– Oh, look at how you say the food tastes bad.
“No, did I say something wrong?”
-Don’t you know that you don’t even touch mercenaries during meal times? Why are you so clueless at your age? Kids can’t digest it.
The magic tower lord was about to retort, but he only twitched his finger as if he had nothing to say.
And after a while, he pointed in the direction of Seti and said:
“I can’t digest it. “Do you still say that when you see that?”
In fact, what the Mage Tower was pointing at was not Seti, but the bowls piled up next to her.
As a rough estimate, it’s easily enough for 10 people.
Seti, who was suddenly pointed out, stopped his hand and looked at the stacked bowls and the magic tower wine in turn, then shrugged his shoulders.
“It’s because I have a constitution that needs to be replenished as much as I use my strength. ”
“… what?”
“Ah, Mage Tower Lord, you don’t know how much effort we used, right? “Because you were in the mansion the entire time you were fighting the Senate.”
“No, that’s… .”
“Well, you didn’t even know there was a demon lord. How would you know that? Yes?”
Was Seti’s tongue too sharp? The magician took a swig from his glass of water.
won While the Death Knights were giggling at the two people, Seti, confident of victory, immediately raised his hand and added food.
“Here for two… No, just give me 5 more servings!”

13 hours 22 minutes ago.
It was Salome who greeted Dawn and Seti as they headed to the living room to hear the operation plan.
“Did you both eat well?”
The aftermath of sealing the Demon King must have been quite severe, and her face was full of fatigue as she waved her hand at the two people.
Dawn sat down and answered.
“I ate well. What about you? Are you okay?”
“Yes, it’s okay.”
“Are there any other problems? Well, things like having a square beard in your mouth or hating Jews… .”
“No, there is nothing like that… Oh, there’s one. “I can now speak German.”
“… ??”
“um Leben zu retten. how is it? “You sound like a native speaker, right?”
What is that. Dawn laughed.
“I’m glad there are no problems. great job.”
“It wasn’t me who suffered, it was all of us. Or something… “Are you flirting with me?”
“… ?”
Seti and Dawn raised their eyebrows at the same time.
Should I call this a joke? Or should I say that lack of sense is an incurable disease?
Dawn, who remembered Salome who was struggling in the devil’s mind just yesterday, answered while trying hard to suppress laughter.
“I’m sorry, but I can’t because I have a lot of owners.”
“… “It’s not because I own it, but what’s the point of having a lot of people?”
“well… ?”
As Dawn trailed off while looking at Seti, Seti chuckled and pinched his cheek.
“Really, there’s nothing I can’t say in front of others.”
Ayaya – Following the exaggerated voice of dawn, Seti pulled his cheek and overlapped his lips as if showing off, and for a moment, a startled Salome covered her eyes with both hands.
Footsteps were heard outside the living room. Dawn and Seti quickly parted their lips and spread the distance apart, pretending nothing had happened.
Right after the two people widened the distance between them, there was a clatter! The door to the reception room opened, and the current head of the Dumea family and the head of the Magic Tower, as well as other commanders, rushed in.
As the adults with serious expressions took their seats, Dawn raised her finger and made a ‘shh’ gesture to Salome.
“Salome? “What’s wrong?”
“Oh, no, Grandma, nothing happened.”
“okay? If you are having a hard time, please let me know. Even if you don’t force yourself to stay in your position, you have done enough.”
While the current head of the Dumea family, seeing Salome’s blushing face, was worried about her, a map of Hiraria and various records were spread out on the wall of the living room.
They were items for a real military operation, and a heavy atmosphere settled in the drawing room.
And soon after, unlike his appearance in the restaurant, Tomasi, the current Magic Tower owner, became very serious and stepped forward to the map.
“Since we don’t have much time left, I will explain as simply as possible.”
He pointed at the map of Hiraria with his staff. To be exact, the western end of the map, the part marked ‘garbage dump.’
“Ekemo and Sabina have occupied the garbage dump and have been producing monsters for a long time.”
When Tomas struck the map with his cane, countless shadows appeared on the map.
“While I was the lord of the magic tower, I kept her in check and controlled her supplies, and the number of monsters she possesses is estimated to be around 12,000 at most.”
12,000 monsters. Although it was not enough compared to the number that covered Manchuria, it was also enough to wipe out a city of this size.
As the expressions of those who knew the power of the monster grew grim, Tomas added:
“Of course, the number twelve thousand assumes the worst case scenario. According to common sense, it is around 5,000… Maybe less than that.”
Those weren’t just words to boost morale. The dump is not a factory, so how can you manage thousands of monsters?
After thinking that far, Seti raised his hand and asked.
“I would have captured the Senate as well. “How about we attack first?”
The Mage Tower immediately shook his head.
“That’s not possible. “If there is an opportunity to break in, like in the case of the Senate, it would be suicidal to storm into a prepared wizard’s workshop.”
is it? Sethi didn’t ask any further questions. Right now, this mansion was no different from a fortified workshop. If, by chance, the opponent had also remodeled the garbage dump like this, going first would have been an act of suicide.
Anyway, next, Dawn raised her hand and asked.
“What will you do if a monster attacks the city?”
“If that’s the case, there’s no need to worry. What Ekemo wants is the magic tower owner’s authority to control the magic tower… “There’s no way I could worsen public opinion by wasting my energy on the citizens of the city while I’m stuck in the fortress.”
“… .”
It was a plausible statement, but the Dawn and Death Knights shook their heads almost simultaneously. Because a person who is cornered can do anything.
Varana Kashi said.
-That was when the Senate remained. Things have changed.
“… Hmm, do you think they will attack the city?”
-If I were the enemy, instead of breaching this fortress, I would capture civilians and pull us out of the fortress. Just like the French did.
“… .”
Matapju did not object. He stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, then nodded his head.
“As soon as the meeting ends, I will issue a general evacuation order for the city.”
-Is there enough evacuation area?
“Except for the Magic Tower, there are almost none… “I think it would be possible to get it as far away from the western dump as possible.”
While Varana nodded, the current head of the Dumea family intervened.
“Do you think the wizards and the city residents, who are suffering from insensitivity to safety, will evacuate? “It is likely to be a waste of manpower.”
Mtapju did not deny it.
“That’s right. But the Senate was burned down… Why don’t you lie? “If we were to say that radioactivity had leaked from a dump, all sensible people would run away.”
“… .”
“Well, wouldn’t it be better than nothing?”
That was the end of the story about civilians.
-Now it’s my turn.
The magic tower owner returned to his seat, the Dumea family head stood up, and the story about the battle began in earnest.

8 hours 52 minutes ago.
Dawn was moving bullets to the outer wall of the mansion.
Thanks to the inventory, it was easy to move things around, and more importantly, the Death Knights gathered on the outer wall had something to do.
Well, anyway. When he arrived at the warehouse on the outer wall, opened his inventory and put down all his bullets, the people around him looked surprised.
It seems quite surprising that such precious subspace magic is only used to move bullets.
A wizard who spares no mana for Gasol… Although she heard such comments, Dawn paid no attention and went around her outer wall, filling her storage room one by one.
And it took a long time to shake off all the old bullets that were only used during the Elf-American War or the Vietnam War.
After moving all the bullets, he found the Death Knights overlooking the city from the top of the outer wall.
Like soldiers who had been on the battlefield in their lifetime, the Death Knights were comparing maps and actual terrain to complement their operations in real time.
As Dawn made a show of approval, the head of the Dumea family turned her head.
-Dawn? What brought you here? What’s going on down there already?
“No, it’s not like that… “There’s something I couldn’t give you.”
-Is there something you couldn’t give me?
Instead of answering, Dawn opened her inventory and took out armor according to the number of people. These were the armors swept from the Magic Tower’s warehouse.
-Armor? What kind of armor is this?
“Just in case. She says there is no dildo here, and there is no saint… “It would be a big problem if I couldn’t retrieve it while it was seriously injured, right?”
The Death Knights’ reactions upon hearing his concerns were divided into two. Either smile in gratitude or snort.
-Thank you for your concern.
The former was Varana and the latter was Beladiva.
-If you die on the battlefield, you die. I’m already a Death Knight, so why bother giving me some kind of armor? Don’t do that, just give me your lovers.
Of course, Dawn silenced Bella Diva by saying that they had already taken care of it.
Things these days… The Death Knights laughed while watching Belladiva click her tongue and obediently put on their armor.
Although it was not as good as the full-body armor that Dumea Gajuna Varana wore during his lifetime, it was enough armor to prevent his body from being cut into pieces at least once.
Perhaps because it was for wizards, everyone except Lieutenant Colonel Duke wore the armor with ease.
-I promise, I will return it to you without a scratch.
Immediately after putting it on, Dumea Gaju patted the armor’s chest and said.
Dawn smiled and responded to the sly look as always.
“If you say yes, that would be great for me.”
Yes, I sincerely hoped that this time it would pass without any problems.

7 hours 42 minutes ago.
The Mage Tower lord issued an evacuation order to Hiraria. Not many people ran away.
1 minute before 6:00.
Dawn felt strangely tense.
Is this the calm before the storm? It was so quiet. He spent time ruminating on Stalin’s Dzhugashvili to keep his nerves at bay.
5 hours ago.
Sabina has not responded yet.
Sensing something strange, the current head of Dumea released Gasol and began to control the station.
By order of the Magic Tower Lord, all trains in Hiraria are currently leaving the city full of people.
Fortunately, all trains coming to the city have stopped running except for one train that will arrive at dawn.
2 hours 33 minutes ago.
Salome was caught secretly copying Goebbels’ all-out war speech.
After being scolded by Dawn for a long time, she shrunk.
1 hour 33 minutes ago.
Is it because of the evacuation order? The city was so crowded that the quiet night sky was laughable.
I set up an on-watch watch to monitor the outside of the fortress, but I heard news that local reporters who fearlessly went to the garbage dump to cover the story failed to return.
It was clear something was happening. Dawn was killing time checking her weapons.
5 minutes ago.
[Everyone who participated in the planning meeting must climb up the outer wall! right now!]
Dawn and Seti, who heard the magic tower owner’s emergency broadcast, immediately ran towards the top of the outer wall of the mansion.
He was waiting like a 5-minute standby and arrived on the outer wall in just a few minutes.
All the major forces, including the head of the Dumea family, were gathered there, but none of them greeted Dawn first. It was natural. Everyone’s eyes were on the other side of the outer wall, toward the Hiraria garbage dump.
It had to be that way. That thing floating above the garbage dump…
“… “A portal?”
The problem was the size of the portal.
Not the tiny portal that players or necromancers had opened, but a portal so large that it covered the entire garbage dump.
Its size is comparable to that of the Chicago Dimensional Gate. How on earth did they make something like that? No, rather, where does the portal open towards?
Before Dawn could ask such a question, the magic tower owner who was concentrating let out a cough.
“this… !”
-Have you checked? Where on earth is that portal leading to?
When the head of the Dumea family asked, the head of the magic tower sighed, wiped his mouth, and answered.
“I don’t know the exact location. but… ”
-but?
“Something is coming from beyond, cluck.”
I knew what it was without even asking. The next moment, countless monsters that could be seen from this distance began pouring out of the portal.
Monsters literally pouring down like a waterfall.
-Oh my god… .
While everyone, especially Karenin, was dumbfounded as they saw the monsters crowding the land, only one person, Dawn, sighed and drew her sword as if ‘I knew it would end up like this.’
He slowly passed the group and put his feet up on the railing of the outer wall, then looked back at the Death Knights and said.
“I took a hit. If we leave it like this, it looks like everyone left in the city will die, um, so… .”
-… .
“Would you like to go with me?”
The Death Knights did not respond. In fact, there was no need for an answer from the beginning. Because the moment Dawn jumped off the railing, they were all together.
