“Let’s take a break here!” I commanded, and the soldiers quickly ees allup their tents
I dustedfro into the tent the soldiers had set up forclosely behindof Adolf, Yuria, and Gril, has succeeded in infiltrating the city of Chaves, sire”
…Huh Could we really trust that group to succeed?
Although I did feel somewhat concerned, they ell-trained and also possessed quite a lot of field experience, so it should work out so them aside
Charlotte froze up, and hurriedly turned around “It became possible to coh to the fiefdo the situation”
“How long until they figure out the location of the survivors?”
“One week, sire At the longest, teeks”
I couldn’t help but reflexively frown at that One to teeks, was it?
In ter for ht lose their lives Especially so as our provisions were dwindling rapidly, too
“Okay, so what have they discovered so far?” I continued asking her while putting on new clothes, which were basically shabby traveller’s attire On top of that outfit, I threw on a robe with a hood attached to ward off the rain
She replied, “They said it’s a literal hellscape inside the city”
“hellscape, is it?”
“Currently within the city of Chaves…”
Charlotte continued on with her report
Apparently, the whole city was filled with corpses everywhere, while the survivors were confined to their ho the rounds, and the vas, prey to be hunted basically whenever they felt bored
“Unless we supply thee quantity of holy water, we estireat difficulty trying to hold on, sire”
Not just the deco corpses, but even zoues were ra around, so even I could tell that the people there would be in dire straits by now, surviving each passing day turning into a life-or-death struggle for them
“What about , sire Our agents are still investigating as we speak The whereabouts of the Vaares are also uncertain, and…”
While listening to her, I stepped outside the tent and looked up at the sky The rain kept falling, and I began tilting my head
I asked her, “What’s your opinion?”
“I beg your pardon, sire?” Charlotte also began tilting her head
“What should we do in order to achieve the best possible result?”
“…Your Majesty We must conquer the fiefdo a few”
In order words, we must utilise the Heavenly Army, huh
Her recommendation was that we conquer the fiefdo the survivors still alive there in order to save a lot h cold-hearted, it did sound theto do Ironically, that was the best way to minimise the sacrifices, and also the most sure-fire way, too
Even I couldn’t think up anything else right now
Rubbing my face, I continued to ponder my options, only for ues’ “…Hht be another way, after all”
“There is, Your Majesty?”
“Yes,” I nodded at her
The rain drops traveled downacross as ominous Each and every drop felt warm to the touch
I held my hand out and felt the raindrops on my skin
…For sure, this was no ordinary rain at all
It felt like boiled water was now falling from the sky Winter was supposed to be around the corner, yet the weather felt siot in touch yet?”
When I asked, Charlotte shook her head “He has received the news and according to the reports, he is currently on his way to this region, sire However, it’s not possible to accurately gauge where he is”
“Well, we’ll just coh the Aztal Rune later on”
While conversing with her, we climbed up a tall hill Once we arrived at the peak that afforded us a greater view of the ht below us
In the far-off distance, I could see the outer walls of the capital of Chaves fiefdom To make sure, I scanned the vicinity of the city one last time
There was no trace of the Jötnar anywhere near Chaves
It seeht I felt relieved that the one thing I was iants, was not present here
