Chapter 10 Pre-War Arrangements
"Smack"
"For the sake of Hongu's face, please stop arguing."
The queen closed the fan and slapped it on the hand, her piercing eyes scanning everyone present.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
It's worthy of being a queen, it's really courageous.
"I also understand the misunderstanding that happened between the Oni-sama and the tree-sama a few days ago."
"Then I have a question for Tree-sama too."
"What?"
The tree, which was stared at by the queen with sharp eyes, suddenly replied tremblingly.
"May I ask why you let your companion Marder slander the ghost at will?"
"I ......"
The tree began to stammer.
"Tree-sama, can I understand that Marder slandered the ghost at your behest?"
"No, no, I didn't instruct Marder to slander the ghost......"
"In other words, it's Marder himself who slanders the ghost at will, right?"
“………… Tsk"
The tree slurred his tongue with an embarrassed expression, give up the tree, you have been guided by the queen's consciousness.
"Even if there were many rudeness in Marder's words at that time, it was the shield group that made the first move, so could they do it at will just because of the mere insults?"
The tree replied confidently.
"I see, Tree-sama, you're right. Just now Hongu asked a question of rudeness, and I ask for forgiveness from Lord Shu. ”
The queen pressed the handle of her fan to her lips and bowed her head slightly to the tree.
"So, Lord Tree, do you remember what happened in the duel at the castle a few days ago?"
"What's going on?"
"Did Lord Tree attack Oni-sama because of some misunderstanding at that time?"
"That's because the ghost humiliated me first...... cut"
Halfway through the words, the tree shut up and drank the black tea unhappily.
He already understood what the queen meant.
"It seems that Tree-sama has understood what Hongu meant"
The queen saw Rost at the same time.
"Rost, do you still need an explanation from Lord Ghost?"
"Hmm~, I~"
Rost was a little unresponsive.
The Queen's diplomacy is really powerful.
"So can we get to the point?"
The queen said calmly but majestically.
“…………”
“…………”
The tree's face was embarrassed.
"Do you have any thoughts about this Calmila wave?"
"Messenger of Justice, do you have something to say?"
I sneered at the tree.
"I ......, no matter how many enemies come, I will solve them"
The tree is really powerful, a serious nonsense.
"So, Tree-sama, do you have a plan to fight this wave?"
"......, there is no need for a plan, the wave is an uncertain combat factor, and what is needed is the ability to fight with agility."
“……”
The trees are talking endlessly.
The Queen and I were both rather speechless.
"It's worthy of Lord Shu, this confidence in strength is really beyond the reach of my generation."
"That's not bad at all, the self-confidence of Lord Shu is exactly the charm that a messenger of justice should have."
"Yes, yes, yes"
"Just that's it"
Led by the armored man, the companions of the tree began to tout the tree again.
I got goosebumps when I heard it, these guys, don't even have the most basic common sense of strategy?
Rost, who was on the side, couldn't help frowning at such a tree, and began to wonder.
"Hey~, do you have anything to say?"
The queen was tired and asked for my opinion.
"Since we are not sure where the wave is coming, we will evacuate the civilian tourists on the island first, and entrust the guild to send a mission to the adventurers on the island to fight the wave together."
"Hongu thinks the same as the oni-sama."
"Secondly, prepare a large number of ships, after all, Carmila is an island, and it is not sure whether it will fight at sea, so it is necessary to prepare countermeasures in advance."
"Hongu understood"
"The Four Holy Weapons have a squad system, and the personnel who have been incorporated into the team by me can follow me to the scene of the wave."
"This matter will be taken care of."
"Then I'll leave the details to you."
"I see, the strategy of the ghost is quite to my liking"
When the queen and I seriously discussed the matter of the coming tide, the tree's expression was a little subtle, and it felt like it had been squeezed out, and it was a little lonely.
"Cut, be smart."
The armored man drank the healing potion given by the tree, touched his chin, and said sourly.
"Really, you can't rely on this kind of cleverness in battle, you have to be like us Shuda, you really rely on your own strength to fight, and everything you plan and arrange is something that only incompetent people do."
Hehe, the brain can't understand it, is this what it means to have a level 13 crispy ADC (the name of the League of Legends shooter class) take on the big dragon (the monster in the game)?
"Field, what you said just now were you saying that this palace is incompetent?"
The queen glared at the tall man with some anger.
"No...... that's not what it meant."
The tall man was shocked by the queen's eyes, and suddenly froze.
"Raphtalia, I want coffee"
"Yes, Oni-sama."
Raphtalia went to the coffee table next to her and helped me make coffee.
"Oops, looking at the look of the idiot tree, my head hurts."
I rubbed my temples and made an uncomfortable expression.
The tree glanced at me a little lost and unhappy.
"Gee, that's pretty impressive. Then let's rub my head for the ghost. ”
"Ah, excuse me, Adora"
I crossed my legs and held out my middle finger at the tree in defiance.
"Tree, listen to your companion's tone, are you strong now?"
"Of course, no matter when, Lord Tree is constantly honing his strength in order to protect justice."
The armored man came out to tout the tree again, what a slut is talking nonsense.
"It's just not like some perverted demon...... Hmph"
The tall man shook his head at me.
"What an annoying guy"
"Ah, it hurts, Adora, lightly."
Adora was already quite angry with the two sluts, the armored man and the tall man, but as a result, when I kneaded my hand hard, I felt like my head was about to explode.
"Ah, I'm so sorry. Ghost Genius is okay. ”
"It's okay, don't be angry with Adora, there's nothing to be angry about."
"yes, I just lost my temper."
I looked at the trees and came up with a plan.
"Since it's all said about this, let's do it this way, the main attack of this wave will be in charge of the tree, and how about I be in charge of defense and support?"
"Is that so?"
The tree asked me a little happily.
What's this guy happy about? Do you think you can be in the limelight?
"Hmm~, I'm too troublesome anyway."
"Ha~, it's really troublesome to meet someone like you as a teammate. But forget it, then you can quietly assist me, and I will solve this wave. ”
The tree pretends to be an elegant and noble son, giving people the illusion that as long as he is there, things can be solved.
"Oh, then please. Come on, don't let me steal the head, ah no, don't let me steal the limelight"
Now I'm starting to look forward to the time when the wave will come.
