Vol 12 Chapter 220 (2/2)
She slid in front of me, assumed a pose, and reported
“Chicken dickhead! I, Monica, have discovered another Labyrinth nearby! Please praise me Praise Monica! No!!”
There, three fists flew into her The i the arms back to their owners
Valkyrie Units One, Two and Three were holding up their weapons, stanced towards Monica
“We’re the ones who found it!”
“You homewrecker!”
“Now take your baptism by fist!”
Froaze to Monica I saw her stand, take out a large drill in hand, and set it into a high-speed rotation
I ended up iet wrapped into it
“You degraded piles of scrappraised by hier is all my role! I’ll scrap you on the spot!!”
They had begun to fight I let out a tired sigh, while Miranda shrugged her shoulders There, the Valkyries… one of the mass-produced models reported the situation to us While the four auto, it seems they drafted up the papers
“Master, here is the data about the Labyrinth For you as well, Miranda-sama”
Accepting the papers, Miranda gave her thanks
“Thank you You’re irl’s treath”
Saying that, she turned through the pages
I also putthere was a Labyrinth nearby Not far at all, it was cave-type relatively bountiful as far as Labyrinths go
“… This one’s quite nice”
Recon had only gone as far as the first and second floor, but there wasn’t anything to coe width It was a make you could call the standard of Labyrinths, and personally, I thought it right to report it to Beim… when the Seventh stopped me
『Lyle, as I thought, you’re a ot it Good, now use this info to shut Beim up』
I sent a glance to Miranda She saas gripping the Jewel, and quietly nodded, turning her eyes back to the documents
She knew the circumstances, so I was able to converse with the Jewel in front of Miranda
“You’ll shut them up? I’ve no idea what they’ll have to say about it”
『Don’ttimeSwiftly crush the fort Labyrinth, and take your ti one And you see… don’t you think this area is truly wonderful? Right, it’s truly worthy of building a second Beim』
I could so at, so I nodded in agreeher, I could see the ocean
Milleia-san spoke delightedly
『Oh my, there’s a point you could construct a harbor』
The Third, assented
『It’s good enough to have a fort, so perhaps this used to be an i of what’s to co this place like Beiain their for theht!』
Thinking they were considering soain, my expression turned sour, and Miranda looked over at me
“Do you always talk with them like that e’re around?”
She asked I nodded, took my hand off the Jewel, and issued orders to the Valkyries
“Return to Bei the cave If we’re to use our main force to crush the fort all at once… now then, how about we do some construction to make the area more livable”
I looked around, ignoring Monica and co’s overly prolonged strife as I continued giving orders
Throwing her large, two handed drill, Monica cried out
“Double Drill Knuckle!”
“Naïve!”
“So so obvious shant… what!?”
“Y-you had such a thing up your sleeve!?”
It see or another, but I turned to them
“Hey, you all have work too Get over here already”
There, Monica, who had two large metal fists equipped to her hands, came to a sudden stop, and tucked her weapons away She brushed off some dust, and raced over to me
“Yes~, because rather than these scraps,on with that important announcement…”
“… Oh, I already heard that one, so it doesn’t matter”
After refusing Monica’s report, I accompanied Miranda to our tent Monica was frozen up with her delighted expression, while the Valkyries were poking her, and estures
Thinking it was inconvenient how they couldn’t make expressions, I decided to consult with Damien on the matter

… In Lyle’s mansion in Beim, Adele read a letter
Maksim watched her state orry
“How fares it, milady?”
What Maksim worried over was the state of their homeland, the territory from which they hailed Like this, Adele was periodically receiving information on it
“I was nervous because we couldn’t get in contact for a while through that defensive war, but it see as you don’t put up a resistance It see lords”
Hearing that, Maksim dropped his shoulders
“Can’t we do so to stop the resistance? They need only hold out for now And at soonest, a few years later and…”
A few years, and Lyle would make his move As Maksim was about to say that, Adele shook her head to the side
“The greatest number of troops the four-country alliance can ive or take In a few years, even if their internal affairs are put on track, I can’t say for sure that it will even reach fifty That isn’t enough If it co Bahnseim, by the smallest estimate, a hundred thousand would be necessary Even so, if Lyle-san continues winning with the ether so, the lords of Bahnseim will have exhausted themselves out”
Feeling the national power of the superpower that was Bahnsim made Maksim scratch his head He hadn’t felt it when he was inside that nation, but the difference in poas too harsh
Maintained at the center of the continent, the country of Bahnsei could probably amass a hundred thousand soldiers at its center district alone If pushed, two or even three hundred
Adding on the armies of its powerful feudal lords, they could easily prepare ten times Lyle’s current force
“So the assistance of other nations is indispensable after all But we cannot drag anymore nations into Bahnseim’s internal problems”
That was Adele’s seed of worry
“I understand, but it is a ti nations that land that was taken fro hatred…”
The tere frantically worrying over it, but where Lyle had his sights on was unification of the continent Ignoring set involved with Bahnseim
Cartaffs was the greatest threat to the nation To speak of others, there was Faunbeax, and a handful that would follow their lead
Maksim sounded worried
“Milady… Lyle plans to build an empire, but is it possible? We don’t even have our own force to speak of Automatons, was it? Proficient as they may be, we only have the ability to prepare a few hundred of them”
Adele held her head as well
“… That’s… right The forces in Lyle-san’s possession, even if they’re of high quality, they’re ofabout it”
Both Adele and Maksi to break the dreadlocks…
