Retreat
The third day
On the third day since this defensive as initiated, the first wall had become quite tattered
Our return fire slackened during the night, but it’s not like they weren’t attacking us
We had prepared three squadrons of three thousand, and had the
Many soldiers and knights had been sent to the back lines from injury
By the point close to half had to step down, our limit had arrived
What’s istic support Not just combatants, a number of supports had to retreat to the back
Granted, theforces
Unsteady on his feet, the captain of Zayin’s Holy Knight Brigade Noy-san caive me a report
His expression wasn’t the best, and he looked like he’d collapse at any moment
“We’re at our limits We should abandon this post”
Hearing the words of an unsteady and dispirited Noy-san, I nodded with a tired expression
Using Da troops and supplies, but we decided to pull back the cannons already
I told Clara to put a hold on the supply chain, and pick up the cannons But in that case, ene it
“We’reinto preparations to withdraw the cannons Wake everyone up And let soh”
I had some preparations of my own toout for May
“May, it’s almost your turn”
Lying down in human form, she looked considerably exhausted
“… Got it”
Rubbing her eyes, and raising herself sluggishly, she put a hand against the wall to stand up Even a divine beast such as herself was showing such signs of exhaustion
From the Jewel, the Fifth let his voice For some reason, he sounded moved
『May, you’re working so hard…』
Thinking that I should be on the receiving end of such an evaluation as well, I looked at the sky, with theto rise
We had put up a small, and plain defensive up to now, but froet a little difficult
Turning to look at the second wall, I…
“It’s even earlier than I thought”
… Let out such a complaint

… Morning
On the third day, the abandonment of the first as deterhold
Moving frequently between the fortress and frontlines, Clara had bags under her eyes
Aria awoke in a room within the second wall, and confirmed Lyle’s order from Clara
“Didn’t he say it’d hold for five days, at least?”
Clara looked over Aria’s drowsiness with envy
“There has been a change of plans And it seereater than anticipated Even Eva’s been rendered immobile, after all”
Eva had already withdrawn to the fortress
With only Miranda and Lyle holding out, andback, they no longer had the means to maintain that point
After Aria got up, she went into preparing herself
“I just have to go out is all, right? We’re already prepared on our side”
Clara trans the front lines
“The extra-largePlease be careful”
The powerful monsters that had started out in the rear, with the army that couldn’t move a foot, they had crushed the lesser creatures in their way underfoot to make their ways to the front
Land Dragons and Trolls, and large res
The figure of a Sand Golem had been confir those sorts of h
Aria changed her clothes, and left the room
“Now then, it’s our turn”
Taking a stretch, she set about getting ready Seeing her back, Clara hurriedly returned to the fortress, transmitted Lyle’s orders, and prayed for her next rest
(The probleets cut the er duty)
Clara wasn’t the only one capable offor kissing guys
Both their opinions aligned, and Da was left to Clara
(Hah, if the first wall is breached, we’ll just beto the second wall… but the frequency will surely increase Wouldn’t anyone do? Just teach soic already)
Clara wanted to return to the fortress, and flop onto a bed at once But therein lay the problem
(The fortress is a hell of its own, so whether one can rest in peace or not is… as I thought, we must secure personnel with all due haste)
It was a good thing she had work to do, but Clara wanted to do so about the situation where she was the only one for that job…

Betall and wall, there was a wide space…
It was to coh There was an incline to the space, and it was e
Barricades of mud were erected, and the preparations to counterattack were in place
With Aria at the head, Lorphys’s side had Alette, and her deputy officer in command
Meanwhile, Zayin had the vice-captain co
None of them were mounted, as they stood in file, and waited for the monsters to come
Around Aria, the Valkyries stood as guards Alette called over
“Now then, I can’t wait to see how you do, little lady You’re the commander here”
She said that to Aria in jest But Aria…
“All we have to do is defeat the eneht?”
That’s all she said
There, Albano burst into laughter in response
“No doubt about that! ‘Cuz thisto speak of”
Creit drew closer to him
“What do you speak of in such an important time!”
“What? Wanna go at it, rock-head!?”
Seeing the belligerent two, Alette, and her adjutant shook their heads
“And you two haven’t changed at all You’ve beco out a bit?”
There, a colored snal beacon
“It’s time”
Alette looked at Aria
When Aria nodded, she issued orders to her squadron And seeing that, Albano and Creit took command of their forces as well
A squadron of five thousand was going to fight under Aria’s command
Aria put power into her hand
Looking forward, she could see the first wall’s gate slowly rising in the distance
And as if a sea wave had closed in on the coast, the an their assault
They weren’t a flock of Goblins or such siants She couldthem
And one of the Valkyries called out to her
“Preparations complete”
Aria nodded, before turning her spear towards the encroaching wave of monsters
