On the third day of separation from the reconnaissance forces led by Morissa and Calant, Haruka, who had been doing nothing in the camp, was somewhat frizzy.

"Belea, it's been three days, why isn't there any news over there!? How long are we going to wait here?" Haruka said with a slight dissatisfaction as she walked into Belia's tent.

"Your Majesty, please don't worry, the work of the reconnaissance unit is far more complicated than you think, and Mo Lisa and Karant don't take the initiative to contact us, indicating that they haven't encountered any major problems for the time being, please give them some more time. ”

"But didn't you say it before? Hibbert must be stepping up his plans for the reincarnation ceremony, and if he doesn't find the place of the ceremony soon, then Elalian-senpai will be in danger. ”

"I understand your anxiety, but this is war, not child's play...... As a commander, if you can't be accountable to your own soldiers, then you are not qualified to win this war. ”

"You're right, but ... Haruka obviously couldn't say anything to the other party, but she was still unwilling in her heart, trying to persuade her to march quickly.

At this moment, the camp suddenly remembered the shrill siren, and the soldiers outside could be heard walking briskly.

"What's going on?!" Belia asked loudly, only to see Savaga hurrying in.

"We have already placed an enchantment around the camp, but we have been spotted by a strange woman, and now she is blocking the door of the camp to ask Her Majesty to go out to meet her. Salwagaga explained.

"Can you clearly know our garrison and crack our barriers?, does that woman have her name?" asked Belia.

"It seems to be called Sicili. ”

"Sicili?!" Haruka looked excited when she heard the name. "Quick! bring her in! Immediately! Immediately!"

"Your Majesty, are you serious? Let such an unknown fellow... Savaga was somewhat skeptical of Haruka's decision.

"She is not an unknown person, she is an emissary of our ally, the Kingdom of the East. Belia quickly explained.

"I'm sorry, I'm going to let the soldiers let her in. Salvaga said, quickly exiting the tent.

In a short time, Sicily was escorted by the soldiers to their tent.

"Long time no see, both!" she greeted them with a smile.

"Why are you here, is there any trouble with the army of the East Country?" asked Belia.

"Yes, our troops have invaded the central region of Minami no Kuni, but they have been blocked by the central mountain range of the country, and the other side has laid down heavy troops in the only passage through the mountain range, and has ambushed us in the swampy depression area. Sicily said.

"So you've already fought the enemy?"

"Yes, Gardia, who was the vanguard of intercepting the other side, volunteered to participate in the battle. ”

"Is she okay?" Haruka was a little worried.

"The situation is not optimistic, the earth dragon knight who passed with her was almost completely wiped out by the enemy, although she came back alive, she was indeed poisoned, and now her life is in danger. ”

"Is it the blood poison of the swamp troll?"

"Yes, I'm here to collect the antidote, thanks to your troops who haven't penetrated the West Country yet. ”

"Tell me!!Where can I find this antidote!!," Haruka asked eagerly.

"It should be on the border between the South and North countries, and as long as there is a swampy landform, there may be their tribes. ”

"Can I get the antidote just by finding the swamp troll?"

"Saliva, the troll's saliva is an important ingredient for making an antidote, and if you can get it, Gardia will be saved. Belia explained.

"Without further ado, I'll go now. ”

"Wait a minute, Your Majesty, are you crazy! You are Your Majesty the Demon King of the Northern Country, how can you leave your army alone!!" Belia stopped loudly.

"But Gardia, he ... ”

"Report!General Belea!" the soldier in charge of the herald entered the tent and interrupted Haruka and Belia's argument.

"What's the matter, tell me. ”

"News has already arrived from the reconnaissance units at the front. ”

"Really, what's the content?"

"The presence of no enemy troops has been found along the entire border of Nishino Country. ”

"What!?How is that possible? Are you sure that's what it says?"

"Yes, it has been confirmed many times, and this information is true. ”

"Is this a complete abandonment of the defense of the national border ... Belia said in her thoughts.

"This is also understandable, after all, there is no ruler in the West Country now, it is just an accessory for Hibbert, even if you let you occupy the territory, as long as you concentrate your forces to defend the key areas, as for the rest, he will not care at all. ”

"The key area? That is, the place of the reincarnation ritual ... ”

"Since the other party has no defenses, let's immediately raise troops and enter the West Country!!I know where there is a swamp area!!"

"Really?"

"When Angelia and the two of them infiltrated the West Country, they used to pass through a large swamp area, and if they were there, there would definitely be the swamp trolls you were looking for!!" Haruka reminded.

"In that case, give the order! Prepare the whole army and set off at once!" ordered Belia to the soldiers......
