Point Allocation (Please stop!)

Takenaka was on the Azuchi's deck as it began to rise

The shi+p was currently facing north, but as it rose, it slowly turned right to face east

There were a lot of people on the spacious deck The supplies for the co battle had been placed on the deck and it all had to be tied down

The inside of the shi+p wasfor combat in different ways and some corridors looked more like storerooms now

Thus, a lot of people used the deck as a corridor Those from PA Oda used spell cloths to whip up the wind and run back and forth along the side of the shi+p

Takenaka looked down at thee of the deck, and…

”Ero ero ero ero”

And from directly below her…

”Waaaah!? The front starboard hull is too dangerous! Stay clear, everyone!”

”Oh, sorry, sorry I forget to check below me beforehand”

Those in the way dashed upwind to the bow of the shi+p and clung to the metal hull there

”Well, next ti!”

”To be honest, if I see you beforehand, I end up aia the shi+p while I'm on the bow is a bit much I really wish they wouldn't do that

”Anyway, I see Hashi+bkun haswhile”

As a strategist, she really wanted to be by her master's side at a time like this

She turned around to see everyone seated around a short figure on the center of the bow deck

That figure was Hashi+ba

Hashi+ba had several lernen figurs opened by her hands and she was rapidly typing to deal with they instructions to everyone on and in the shi+p and also paying out the rewards for the battle at Paris

She did not hand deliver the rewards, but she processed each of them individually and the rewards did reach thenature was an automated one, but when people received it, they held the lernen figur up in the air, forwarded it to their parents, and quietly listened to what Hashi+ba had to say

”Ue for everyone froinning separate from the Kantou Liberation they were headed toward

”In the southern MHRR city of Nördlingen, th-the MHRR Catholics will soon hold the history recreation of the B-Battle of Nördlingen!”

Asama did not knohat Hashi+ba meant, so she asked about it

”U it up out of nowhere?”

Hashi+ba had suddenly brought up a history recreation

It was Naruze who responded to Asaen is si point in the Thirty Years' War”

Asaht back to that battle in MHRR

…The Sack of Magdeburg left the Protestants with no choice but to go to ith the Catholics, right?

Catholic forces had sacked the Protestant city of Magdeburg and that had gathered the previously neutral Protestant principalities and regions into an anti-Catholic force

So what turning point would come after that?

Asama: ”Is it a major victory for the Protestants?”

Gold Mar: ”Quite the opposite actually”

”Eh?” asked Asama

Naito must have heard her because she clarified

Gold Mar: ”Nördlingen was a rare Protestant city in the southern MHRR region of Bavaria and it was besieged in what is known as the Battle of Nördlingen The Iainst the Protestants The Imperials had a pretty bad na a bit too ood for the Catholics, but this battle ended up encouraging them”

”That is correct,” said Mitotsudaira

Silver Wolf: ”And after the Battle of Nördlingen encouraged the Imperials, a certain major nation decided to officially join the war”

That one Française The Battle of Nördlingen led theest and final defeat for the Protestants”

”I knew you'd be sending a disaster our way”

Terumoto spoke to Hashi+ba as displayed on the floor

Her eyebroere raised, but she kept the sht: If ant to protect the Protestants, we need to head to Nördlingen instead of the Kantou Liberation”

But there was a probleone Française officially fighting in the Battle of Nördlingen They were allied with the anti-Imperial faction, but they were not present as a major force

But ould happen if they could not send anyone to fight?

”What do you think, Mouri-01?”

”Testament, a section of MHRR's forces will likely attack Nördlingen Then the Battle of Nördlingen will in fact end in an MHRR victory”

Nördlingen was a major city with a close connection to the Far Eastern reservation, so they wanted to avoid a devastating attack there

”What about the MHRR Protestants?”

”The Catholics are already on theA Protestant force centered on Toen before the battle begins Of course, the MHRR Ireater force”

”Who will that be?”

”Testament,” replied Mouri-01 ”We expect the shi+bata forces, who came down from Hokuriku as defenders, and the Niwa forces, who came down from the center”

Still Got It: ”Anyway, that is who the ene”

Mitotsudaira frowned at the information from her mother

Silver Wolf: ”What do they hope to acco 1 and 2 of the Five Great Peaks?”

Still Got It: ”It's a good way of showing you how en is in, isn't it? You could say Hashi+ba is suen”

Her mother was very clear about that

But what did that one Française cannot fight in the Battle of Nördlingen, Hashi+ba is telling the you fight in the Kantou Liberation”

Silver Wolf: ”And that's how they're telling Musashi+ to go to Nördlingen!?”

Still Got It: ”Testament, that is how they will remove Musashi+ from the Kantou Liberation That is ultiotiations here …Do you understand now, Nate?”

”Judge,” said Mitotsudaira to show she now understood everything

…Hashi+ba is trying to use these consecutive negotiations to crush the Kantou Liberation in advance

This was how Hashi+ba had set up their negotiation:

”First, they removed Date and Houjou from the battle and then they left Mouri without supplies But those restrictions could be overco Musashi+ to Nördlingen to remove us from the Kantou Liberation It all falls apart That is Hashi+ba's plan”

Masazumi had used the word ”remove” because she had predicted this However…

Vice President: ”This isus …They've made it a lot more coood for being so quick Although before we left Hexagone Française, we had a feitnesses, did a fair aht up a few different patterns”

”But,” she said

Still Got It: ”The probleen is its location in southern MHRR The only Protestant forces that can arrive in a hurry are To”

Silver Wolf: ”U us all worked up if you like, but aren't you forgetting so?”

Still Got It: ”Oh? Am I?”

Why is she like this? wondered Mitotsudaira while tapping her divine transn frame

Silver Wolf: ”One of the coen is naone Française recently, so he will be headed to Nördlingen, won't he?”

A silhouette raced through the night

The figure breaking through the clouds with thruster light trailing behind his tail was a bluish-black dragon

And far behind hiht sky as if in pursuit

That was Wakisaka

She pressed her six-winged forles She used that to reduce air resistance as her top speed in cruising ie, can you hear h I can't actually open a cour, but can you hear ?”

”Testae data, but I'm currently headed east to southern MHRR I think I'll pass 7ken in 20 minutes Oh, but that's my trajectory I think that Burnyard, or whatever his naen”

Kimee: ”I can use that data on my map Can you see to the east?”

She could not

The south was a forest region, so it was dark at night

She could vaguely see the borderline between the night sky and dark land up ahead, but…

…I soes

”Oh?”

She could see two things

They were on the distant horizon

There were two points of light to north, which was to her left The two lights were only a short distance apart, but…

…That's an illusion due to the distance They're actually really far apart and the left one is a lot closer to rew farther apart and the right one seerow more distant

She was pretty sure she knehat those lights were

”The Protestant forces are going to reach Nördlingen first! The Catholic representative is arriving from the northeast…but is that who I think it is? shi+bata and Niarriors?”

Kimee: ”Testament The shi+bata Unit and Niwa Unit are headed to Nördlingen The Niwa Unit is really in the lead here Mitsunari is headed out to visit the on”

”Testaon en

Wakisaka was headed to Kantou

She slowed her eastern travel as she used a Magie Figur to ahtness as ion

She was headed straight east, but she glanced north for just aon you, Nari Nari!”

”And so we are counting on you, but do not feel too reet you and explain the situation, but I have determined Hashi+bsaotiating with Kantou”

”She h

She was in a shi+p's cafeteria This was her flagshi+p, the Sawayama Castle, and the cafeteria was plain but clean with pale blue walls and a wooden floor

”Mitsunari-kun, I know you're a data entity, so are you fine with this floor?”

”Testa repaired, but with a transmitted data entity, that actually means I contain less data”

”Still, I don't want you to push yourself Oh, but this shi+p will eventually be yours, so do you want to take a look around?”

”Eh? …Oh, um, no thank you I do not have Hashi+bsairl, aren't you?”

Just as Niwa said that, a voice called from the counter
