Chapter 21: Randall's Beacon Smoke
CHAPTER XXI
Randall's Beacon Smoke
There is no doubt that banishment is a terrible magic, at least, for all physical attack classes.
On the other hand, for the mage itself, you don't have to worry about any big man with a machete and axe circling around you, and you can output and output as much as you want. How pleasant it is.
Of course, there are limitations to such a spell itself, such as the fact that the target cannot be exiled for a certain period of time, nor can it be exiled continuously.
It's not some mystical law. Even Lori herself understands what it is to be in the gap between the real world and the other dimensional space, the more times you are exiled, the longer you keep it, the higher the chance of risk, this is a simple matter of probability.
So for Leah, these little shortcomings are tolerable. The real, constant trouble came from the cat, and since Isabella had read the paper, the two of them had been debating for one to three hours every day. Of course, among mages, this kind of thing is so common that it can't be more common.
But for Karen and the rest of the knights, it's like a thrilling adventure.
Think about it, on one side, little Lori is holding her waist with her left hand, pointing at the princess with her right hand like a green finger, leaning forward, baring her little tiger teeth, whining like an angry cat.
On the other side, the princess sat sideways with her hands in front of her chest, gently closing one eye, and casting a dissatisfied glance at Lori from the other open eye. Even...... When the fire is high, he will slap the table hard.
Well, I don't understand what they're saying, but ...... No matter how you look at it, it looks like a quarrel!
So, Alec, who finally couldn't stand it anymore, found Kalian.
"My lord, don't you really need to admonish Miss Leah, I'm afraid that her 'befriending' with the princess like this will be bad in the future. ”
The knight really cares about little Lori. You know, since ancient times, he has never seen a nobleman dare to talk back to a princess like that.
"No, I don't. ”
Karen 'rubbed' her temples and looked like she had a headache.
But the adults also seemed to be troubled. ”
"You're right about one thing, I'm bothered, Alec. But it wasn't because of Leah and the princess. Trust me, no two people who hate each other will sleep together after a fight. ”
Ever since he learned that there was a small agreement between Leah and Isabella that "the losing side should be the pillow of the winning side", the 'female' count simply ignored the various-for-tat confrontations between the two on weekdays.
"As for what I'm bothering with...... Look at this, Alec. ”
Karene said, handing a letter to the other party.
"It's ...... Randall's battle situation!?"
Picking up the thick stack of documents, not so much letters as documents, Alec was surprised to find that it turned out to be Randall's report on the battles he had fought in recent months. This caused a storm in the knight's heart, and who got these reports and sent them to Kalene?
"Hmph...... It was the man who gave it to me. ”
As if to see what Alec was thinking, Karen snorted impatiently.
"Ah......h
So the knight realized that there was only one person who could make his regimental commander so unwelcome, but who had the ability to carry Randall's battle report so quickly, and that was the old Duke Brown Farain.
For a general, it is undoubtedly troublesome to stay away from the war, which is changing rapidly, and if you don't want to lose the sharp 'nature' that exists there, you can't stay away from these bloody war reports. So, Mr. Brown personally sent these letters from thousands of miles away. Of course, there is not even a greeting in it, just a variety of battle reports once again proves the old man's "arrogance".
"Everyone in Snow Lotus City did a good job. ”
The topic of the old duke has always been taboo in the regiment, and Alec very tactfully did not touch this mold, but turned the topic to the war itself.
Karen's arrival in Snow Lotus City was succeeded by the new duke, Chloe Raven, the head of the Royal Knights.
"Hmph...... If he can't beat Fenrir with Cattravard, then I can really have a good laugh. ”
I don't know if it was because of regret that she lost the opportunity to 'fight' with Fenrir, or because she recalled the unfair contest in the past, Karene looked into the distance with some indignation, which was Randall's direction.
"Ah...... South ......"
Flipping through the pages, Alec discovered the source of Karen's headache, and at the southern border with the Salman Holy Cult, the knights of Duke Arman had retreated.
"With the death of the old Duke Charlie Britt, the long war, the poisoning of the jousting tournament, and then the loss of Catalawardard, it makes sense to be honest that the Iron Wing Knights of the Britt family would have become so vulnerable. ”
Iron Wing, that was the highest honor bestowed on the Britt family by the ancestors of Randall's royal family. The symbol of Randall's royal family is the griffin, and the iron wings are the griffon's wings. This proves that for the Randall Kingdom, the Britt family is like the wings that make it soar.
Now, however, the wing is broken. The low morale of the 'fan' and the fatigue of continuous battles put the Duke of Arman in a state of repeated defeats. As a last resort, they began to retreat. In his place was Duke Brown Farain, who led the mage troops to the front.
"Perhaps, we will be called back. ”
Alec guessed.
"Maybe, but not necessarily. Although I don't want to admit it, that person's mage army is indeed the last nightmare that everyone wants to see on the battlefield. ”
Karen said with an impatient expression. That's right, the old Duke Brown Farain's mage force is one of the smallest. However, its role on the battlefield is extremely terrifying.
Each mage on the team must learn area-of-effect attack magic such as Burst Fireball, Arcane Blast, etc. Whether offensive or defensive, patches of magic are a nightmare for all enemies. Especially since Leah learned about the arcane impact, this has made the arcane mages in the army even more terrifying, like siege chariots, or large war facilities such as city 'gates' that have not been specially reinforced, in the face of the arcane impact released by several mages is like paper paste.
The only pity is that this unit is not very good at climbing mountains and mobile combat, so they tend to be more defensive.
"Obviously the profession is a scholar and a researcher, but in his hands he has in his hands a mystical art that is almost exclusively for the purpose of war, if you want me to say, mage...... What a contradictory career......"
Finally, Karen looked at the sky and shook her head.
"That's right, Alec. ”
"Yes?"
"Bring this to Leah, I think she'll be happy. ”
