Vol 3 Chapter 79 (2/2)
How to defeat the devil
“Port them?”(Dahm Soldier)
Not everyone there fell victi
There were also a few soldiers that ements
“So far, the likelihood of it becoo under the cover of darkness, we can subjugate them all without a fuss!”(Ralph)
“However… They say they’re stronger than disaster classes…”(Dahm Soldier)
“H that to boost their own achievements and make sure people fall in line”(Ralph)
Is that really the case? The soldiers who said that tilted their headsIndeed, Dahm and Karnan didn’t witness the devils directly
They didn’t actually see how strong the devils ith their own eyes
“Look at the evidenceIn Kurt Kingdom there were no injuries”(Ralph)
“However, in the Swedes Kingdom…”(Dahm Noldier)
“Okay, they ht not have been able to respond to a surprise attack on timeEven then, they were easily repelledIt’s really not a big dealDevils and the like”(Ralph)
Before the Three Power Talks, shi+n was concerned people will start thinking “The devils aren’t that big of a deal”
“But…”(Dahm soldier)
“You’re being annoying! For the last ti to disobey the teachings of the doctrine!?”(Ralph)
Teachings of the religion of the God of creation
When did this co of people eren’t happy about shi+n being called the Messenger of God or the Saint, so wasn’t thishim forfeit that title?
We wanted to achieve a greater feat than shi+nFrom that, an idea that they were chosen by God sprouted and headed in a dangerous direction
This is bad
The strategy decided at the World Union Conference was that shi+n would deal with the devils and the armies would deal with the demons
If they take action here spurred by fanatical thinking it’s no longer about taking the title away from shi+nIt’ll turn into a very bad situation for Dahm
He tried to get Ralph to give up because there’s no way to kill the devils, but he failedHis eyes were shi+ning with fanaticishtest
He must stop him at any cost
Several people were there were detero to the devil infested city
The day after Alice and the Swede forces joined us was completely free
Because of the final battle ahead of us toue were avoidedEven training was called off
Currently I’e the reconnaissance tea
The strategy for to in the darkness before daybreak
Everyone except the night watchmen went to bed early and so I did because I had to wake up in the ht
A little after that I oken up by an angry roarIt was still the ht
“Devils! The devils have begun to move!”(Lookout)
The Final Phase… Or at least it was supposed to be
“Is it true that they found devils?”(shi+n)
Gus was presented with shocking news in one of the daily reports that devils were found
We were ai for the imperial capital, which we believed to be the devils base, but Kurt reconnaissance forces discovered a city where the devils gathered
“What are the odds of it being a trap?”(shi+n)
[I went to check it out, but it wasn’t a large city and the devils were distracted by destroying housesIt’s probably not an a you went to check it outThat’s quite dangerous
“You weren’t discovered?”(shi+n)
[Thanks to theNot only has the aic powerI also used the ust)
“That’s good but… So? Was Stromm with theed to confirust)
“Because they moved around you couldn’t tell the exact nu itEven if I know there’s no possibility of an ambush I’m still uneasy about this…”(shi+n)
Still, ould they gather in a provincial town rather than in the fors to pass the time on top of that… Are they frustrated their two attacks failed?
Is it a crude surprise attack?
It’s strange if you just sit there being frustrated after failed raids and not planning the next one
“Soe…”(shi+n)
[Oh, I think so tooFor the ti an eye on the situation froust)
“I seeYou should wait until we join up for this one”(shi+n)
[They were already given a strict orderThey can’t handle the devils alone so they should leave theust)
It’s impossible for us to face dozens of devils until all of us are gathered together
[There’s gonna be a report froer!](UM)
The end ga
We missed two chances alreadyFailure is not an option this timeWe have totheed information between all allied forces reported it to the leaders of Els, Ys and the Dahm commander, Ralph Portman
There are already three of us there
“What!? The devils base have been discovered!?”(Ralph)
“YesKurts reconnaissance unit confirmed itBecause it was confirmed by multiple people, it’s not a usto with the Kurt forces? He didn’t subjugate them?”(Ralph)
“He is, but because there’s so h, and so he’s waiting until the Ultiather”(Soldier)
“Really… He hasn’t subjugated theh of relief that the devils weren’t subjugated yet
But why is he relieved they haven’t been suppressed?
“All right! Our destination changed as wellWhere is that city?”(Ralph)
“It’s there”(Why would you do this to yourself?)
The soldiers spreads a map of the for through the demon territory for several days now
Because they all marched to the same destination, the forces are positioned not that far apart from each other
They could join with them in 2-3 days
“The problem is the army most far off is EarlshydesBecause they don’t have any Ulti on the situation, the battle ht start before we arrive there”(Ralph)
Certainly the Earlshyde army is far away
However they’re not responsible for the suppression of Devils
Even though they can take down a disaster class they wont participate
“Not only does the Earlshyde army want to avoid a confrontation with the devils, but so do all the allied forcesWe’re going to do it aloneBecause we’re going to arrive before the battle starts”(Ralph)
“…Didn’t they say you cannot subjugate a devil by yourself?”
For some reason that was a bit of a prickly subject
One would think the sheer nuated by each allied force in the past few days would be enough of an achievey itself
When the devils are gone the land will be distributed to each country
In that case, a lot of people will live here so it’s necessary to greatly thin out the de the devils, the demons will need to be mopped up
Even if you don’t participate in the devil subjugation no one would complain
“It was said by the Swedes correspondence that they can’t iine the countries troops can deal with themBut… They’ve suppressed devils in the pastDon’t you think this strategy was drawn up and approved based on that?”(Els commander)
After he said that, coant” and a glare of hatred
“What? I… Did I say so bad?”(Ys commander)
“No, I made a mistakeWhat with his attitudeI don’t like it”(Els commander)
“Is that really the attitude a countries co of Portman, wasn’t he supposed to be an honest person with a fair character?It’s eion”(Ys co their concerns
It would seem like it
Because an allied force commander suddenly blew up at them
It was all so sudden and he couldn’t react, because even in his wildest dreams, he didn’t think he’d flare up like that
“There is no excuse for that! I apologize for the rude behaviour of our commander!”(Dahm deputy)
The deputies of the Dahm army hurriedly lowered their heads
“Why does your commander act like that?”(Els co like that!”(Dahm deputy)
“I heard that tooSo what happened to him just now?”(Ys commander)
When pressed for an answer by the Ys commander, the Dahht of soation of a devil is still a ht be frustrated that the Ulti it…”(Dahm deputy)
…That was it
They wondered why he was relieved when he heard the devils weren’t subjugated yet
But, it’s harder to think of a reason as to why he would be so violent towards them
His subordinates also wondered if they should say so a world crisis… What do you think?”(Ys commander)
“Really… It’s deplorable”(Els coree
With such aed their route to the iathered and the Kurt forces camped
They arrived at a hilly area, located close by but it’s invisible froust)
“We hear each other every day so it doesn’t feel like it”(shi+n)
In a couple of days I joined up with Gus
Tony’s group already arrivedAfter that, only Alice and her group is left
“Freed yesterday, shi+n todayCorner will probably show up toue we’ll rest for a day and attack after that”(August)
“Now that you mention it, should we send them a surrender ulti free will never happened before, I didn’t think of thatIs it required?”(August)
I wonder
Should we ask people from other countries?
“There is no need! They are enemies of mankind! They are a threat! They must not be allowed to run free!”(Ys commander)
Ys is adamantly opposed
“Is it required? In the first place, haven’t theythe surprise attack on Swedes? Even if they weren’t devils, they’ve still committed crimes before”(Els coarded the necessity of a surrender ultireed
They are the enemies of humanityCriminals who already coht so too but there ht be someone who’d kick up a fuss because we didn’t send out a surrender ultih they’re now devils, they used to be huiven them a surrender ultimatuh strategy was decided upon
Surround the city with the 12 of us
Synchronize the attack ireless coic all at once
After the sweep, we close off the exit routes and drive the devils into the center of the city where we’ll create a killzone
…Although it’s a rough strategy for only 12 people but we should probably be fine
As for the Alliance forces, they will surround the city and prevent the escape of any devil that h they’ll most likely lose their lives, the eyes of allied forces soldier were burning with deterinally, all countries were supposed to gather hereBut waiting for all arust)
To let the other ar like that
“Besides, It’s also i to be circling around”(August)
The Earlshyde army wouldn’t make it in tiate demons
Once the operation is over, the rest will join up with Swedes
Everybody was ordered to rest after a series of battles
While the allied forces arled, a certain man appeared before us
“HeyIt’s been a while shi+n”(Galland)
“Oh, GallandLong tiuy after allForget being well known, you’re being touted as the saviour of this world”(Galland)
“N-noEveryone is just over exaggerating”(shi+n)
“If you’re that modest won’t it be mistaken for sarcasm?Be careful”(Galland)
“Huh… Sorry about that”(shi+n)
“Indeed, that sters these days sure are aical swordsical swordsman”(shi+n)
“Ha? Tony is also oneA swordsicHe made quite an impression on the Karnan allied forces”(Galland)
“Mhm”(shi+n)
Tony you hid this from et nervousIt’s quite natural”(Galland)
“OhA devil is not that big of a dealI’m only worried I’ll let so of a deal…”(Galland)
Actually that’s right
We’ve beaten them twice now and they escaped, so this ti them escape
“I have faith in youWell then, do your best? Hero”(Galland)
“Yeahleave it to me”(shi+n)
When I said that, MrGalland went back to the Karnan troops
After joining we’re acting collectivelyAt the saed fro tent
There I took out a bed froe and set it up
“A bed for caust)
“I’ve got enough for everyone but if you don’t need one that’s fine Gus”(shi+n)
“A bed is best to get rid of fatigue after all”(August)
You sure change your h rest is absolutely necessary before the final battle with the devils
I would’ve given Gus the bed anyway, I’ht beds… He also developedso he could to that while ca that!”(shi+n)
“Is that so?”(August)
“Is that true?”(Tony)
“What about Mark and Olivia!? They’re a couple too!”(shi+n)
“That would be an insane thing to do”(August)
“I think so too!”(Mark)
This interaction continued for a while
If i had to say it, being together with Sicily would obviously be wonderfulNonetheless, having friends that are guys that you could talk to without holding back is also nice
I also went to the feive them beds
After all they were quite tired, so they were jubilant
“shi+n, this bedding…”(Sicily)
“Oh, it’s frolad!”(Sicily)
Sicily laughed delightfully
She did personally experience how grandma’s bed felt after all
“Is that true? That you didn’t use wool”(Maria)
“Yes, it is”(shi+n)
“H on it just once is
After meals and a bath ere all so tired, ent to sleep immediately without , Gus begged
“I have no memory of what happened after I went to bedI felt a sensation of being enveloped and before I knew it it was ust)
WoahThat’s high praise
By the way, it wasn’t only Gus but everyone else had the same reaction
What to do? If it’s so popular, should I add it as a product in hts of existing stores
Then, should I sell the idea of one to a store that deals in beddings?
…Well, I’ll have to look into it after thisabout that, some of the Swedes forces joined us in the early afternoon
“Ah~… I’m tired…”(Yuri)
“Dizzy”(Alice)
“I wanna take a bath”(Rin)
They look very dizzy
I heard that they were running at a considerable pace since et here as soon as possibleIt seems like they were part of the force that subdued deot herself ainto one of the beds
They woke up at night and asked for the bedding
In any case, the Ultiicians have arrived
The reconnaissance unit reported no devilto be to on us
Fro around
“I slept through the day and can’t any around!
Toainst the devils
The allied forces theht the devils, but if shi+n let’s one through, we must stop it even if it costs us our lives
Even if there were to be no response, the at
Meanwhile, several people gathered in front of the Dahm tent
“Director Porticians are starting their attack the day after tomorrow”(Dahm Soldier)
“Their titles aside, their abilities are the real dealIf this continues as is and they get all the achieve the devils, any request to withdraw their titles would be laughed off!”(Dahet ier of God and the Saint have gathered in Ralphs tent
To be of use in the e nuht now there were around 50 people which is close to the ave up on getting hiive up his title, but an opportunity appeared suddenly and unexpectedly
There are devils right in front of them now
Therefore he became aware of it
There is no better opportunity to prove the world doesn’t need to be saved by relying on theer of God is unnecessary, than to subjugate all the devils before shi+n and the others do
Ralph cal impatient
“ListenEven if we tried to approach that city right noe’d be found out by soo to bed ahead of tireat operation to be as ready as possibleIn other words there’s less people standing guardWait until then”(Ralph)
Because there’s still plenty of tiht
Therefore, Ralph told everyone to wait until toe
The realization of their wishes is right in front of them
God created this opportunity for us
God helped us er of God
After all, he shouldn’t be called Messenger of God
We will show that
God says we should subjugate the devils
They interpreted this situation as such
And because of that interpretation, they were convinced they were the chosen ones, recognized by God
Fanaticism
It was exactly that which reflected in their eyes
However, there was so that didn’t occur to them in their fanaticism clouded minds
