Chapter 19 (2/2)

A group of goblins had bustled out froround

One goblin got on its friend’s back, then another one juoblin

And so, they created a pillar and knocked the gelde

「What is that…?」

「Goblins were originally earth spirits The spirit king apparently gottoo et along ith dwarves I often seen the」

The sight of the goblins standing up against an opponent two tielde it a chance to counterattack

But because it was just being tapped by a twig, it was likely annoying at best Actually, the geldem did just look annoyed and didn’t seem to be in pain

At any rate, Hiro thought the goblins were cute

「If you did ju with the geldem」

「… Good thing I didn’t go That looks like an annoying attack」

「Hehe, it does But goblins are scary when they’re unable to use a twig」

「What does that mean exactly?」

「Moblins’ attack “Death of Meteor” It’s as powerful as you’d expect from a former spirit」

TL note: Kanji is actually “Meteor of Death”…

An attack that can al

The oblins threw their tay and began striking with their fists

However, the i it was all the more scary

As the tatching the goblins’ battle and talking about trifling things…

「By the way, there are only doe goblins」

TL note: She uses a word for feeneral word for felish, I just arbitrarily ith a rabbit

He’s curious about the word she uses, but just then, the soldiers ent to check on the town return

They were accompanied by a neatly dressed man who looked to be in his prime

As soon as the man dismounted his horse, he touched his hand to his chest and put a knee to the ground without concern for getting dirty

「Your highness Celia Estreya, it is an honor toas Margrave Grinda’s deputy during his absence」

Liz stands up, touches her hand to her chest, and returns his greeting

「I aranted the position of Major General frohness the Emperor」

Her elegance and dignified expression befitting the Sixth I of her

「Deputy Margrave Taro?」

「To Fort Belk The Lichtein dukedom crossed our borders and closed in on us for an attack 4 days ago According to reports, they number 12,000 However, thanks to the presence of

「Mars」, we are still in a stalemate」

Tarmie handed her an envelope

「I was told to hand this to you should you come by here」

Liz took the envelope, opened it, and glanced through the piece of paper

She nodded her head , then stared at Tris

「… Tris!」

「Yes!」

Tris, as well as the 8 heavy infantryround

「We’re heading to Fort Belk But let’s get some rest in Links first」

After multiple battles, they had come this far on horseback without any sleep

No ue had likely accumulated, even if you couldn’t tell one bit from Tris and the others’ faces

「You want to read it too, Hiro?」

「Is it okay for you to let me read it just like that?」

He looks at Liz, a bit surprised

Although it depends on the content, a letter meant for a specific individual like this probably shouldn’t been shown to just anyone

At least, that’s how Hiro looked at it

But she lightly nods and hands the letter to Hiro

This is ritten on the letter

My dear Elizabeth

I alad that you safely arrived to Links

However, let us exchange words at length once we ain

I will be waiting at Fort Belk

Ruzen Kiolk von Grinda

「Deputy Margrave Tarmie, how many forces do you have at Fort Belk?」

「… Including 「Mars’s」 army, about 3,000」

「That’s big difference again」

After dealing with 3,000, now it’s 12,000 It was understandable that Liz looked crestfallen

Hiro was thinking about the situation and sighed

When he thought about it, He had no status whatsoever in this world

One false step and he would’ve been less than a commoner If he hadn’t met Liz, he would’ve been out on the streets

Even if someone like that came up with a plan, it wouldn’t be employed

Also, it’s doubtful anyone would believe hio

(Although, it’s possible that Liz ht believe me…)

Anyway, he decides to put a pin in it until he gets a grasp of the situation

He can think of about it once he does It won’t be too late to decide on the best course of action after that

Hiro looked overhead The ultras
