CH.23 Capture the Fortress
"Wait a minute! Don't kill him!" Sicili's sudden appearance made Savaga stop his movements.
"It's you ... He hung his tomahawk over Sarger's head, then turned to look at Sicilia.
"General Sargeth, is that... ”
"Who are you?"
"I was a mercenary under you for a while, remember?" said Sicilia, slowly walking between the two of them, gently pushing Salvaga's axe aside with her hand.
"Mercenaries ... He looked at Sicily in surprise, as if he had some recollection, "You're the mercenary named Sicili, aren't you?"
"It's such an honor, I didn't expect you to remember a little person like me... ”
"Since you're here, is your new employer the Demon King of the North?" he looked up at Sissili, who was so badly injured that he couldn't move for half a minute.
"That's right, I'm working for the North for the time being. She replied with a smile. "Since General Sarger, your master, the Demon King of the West, Faldi, is no longer here, you don't need to risk your life for those guys in the South Country, right?"
"Are you trying to win me over?"
"I've worked under you, so I'm well aware of your strength, and someone as good as you shouldn't die here, right?"
“。。。。。。 ”
"Wait a minute. Salvaga on the side obviously didn't expect Sicily to do this, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Sicili on the side with a gesture.
"I'll take care of this for now. She whispered to Savaga, who was beside her.
"All right, but first of all, get his men to give up their resistance and surrender completely to us. Salvaga reminded.
"If, for us, senseless killing is not something we want to see. Sicilia asked again at Sargers.
"Understood, let's surrender!Don't resist!!Open the gates of the fortress!" Sargers shouted in a weak voice, and the entire defenders of the fortress consciously disarmed.
"Send a signal to Belea, and let the troops come here to join us. Sicily said to Salvaga.
"Understood, I'll leave it to you, I'll take care of taking over the entire fortress. With that, Savaga led the orc warriors towards the inside of the fortress.
By the time Belea's army arrived at the hidden fortress, it was already afternoon. After roughly arranging the entire group, she led Calant and Jasa to the command room of the fortress, which had been set up as a temporary base.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty the Demon King of the East, for you to come here again. As soon as she entered, Belia thought about Sicily and apologized.
"There is no need to apologize, after all, as an important ally, Haruka's abduction has a great impact on our alliance, so we must find him as soon as possible. And just call me Sicily here, understand?"
"Yes ... Belia replied.
"Anyway, this fortress is so powerful, it looks like it's just a mountain from the outside, but I didn't expect it to be so huge inside. Karant, who was accompanying him, couldn't help but say after witnessing the internal structure of the fortress along the way.
"The capture of this fortress is all due to General Salvaga. ”
"It's just a small fight, not worth mentioning. Salvaga waved his hand modestly.
"Also, I've heard that the original defenders of this fortress have chosen to join us, is that such a thing?" asked Belia.
"That's right, I personally came here to persuade the other party to surrender, after all, the original leader here and I had a little intersection before. ”
"Really, it seems to be a man named Sargeth, right?"
"Yes, as the general of the Demon King Army of the Former West, his troops are very good at controlling and raising alien beasts, so for us, his addition is equivalent to bringing us new weapons. ”
"Is it the alien beast army of the West Country, is it the same magical beast that launched an ultra-long-range attack on us before?"
"That's right, the giant siege beast vehicles that the country of the East is proud of are also imitated by their attack methods. ”
"It's nice to have a new force joined, but can this man named Sargers be worthy of our trust?"
"As the master who lost his original service, and then was treated as an outcast when he followed the power of Minami no Kuni, there is no loyalty to this man anymore, so it is not impossible to use it as a prop. ”
"Abandoned by the guys of the South Country... Did you get any information about Your Majesty from him?" asked Belia with concern.
"Unfortunately, all the orders to attack were given unilaterally by the Minami Country, and he does not have the ability to obtain other information. ”
"Is that so... ”
"But the last command the enemy gave to him seemed to get some clues. Sicily said.
"What is it?"
"Attack the forces of the North Country and hold them back. ”
"Hold us back?"
"That's right, this order is very urgent, completely different from the previous sneak attack on you, it seems that the other party is also very anxious about something. ”
"Could this be related to the anomalous transfer of enemy troops?" said Moresa on the side, who seemed to think of something.
"Is it an anomalous transfer? Does it mean that the defenders who were supposed to be stationed in Gorka City suddenly went to the wasteland on the west side?"
"Yes, that's right. ”
"Clearly, then, there must be something over there, desperate for the enemy to find. Sicili said categorically.
"Is the west the place we have to go......" Belia pondered......
