Vol 13 Chapter 259 (2/2)
His emerald eyes were sharp, while his body was trained
“Baldoir, you heard our conversation, right? Go serve under Lyle-sama I’ll send people from the territory Take at least three hundred with you”
On the Randbergh House head’s words, the man called Baldoir looked a little surprised
“Three hundred? Father, at present, even two hundred and the territory’s ement will be…”
His father raised his staff a little, before hitting it into the floor There, Baldoir closed his mouth
To Novem
“My apologies It seems he doesn’t understand the severity of the n, and from the eyes of a parent, he’s a skilled one He’s a little inexperienced, but I’m sure he’ll be useful It’s just, for us, three hundred is the limit We’ll do our best to prepare some youths with power, but with me alone, I can’t send out any more troops”
Fro on around two hundred Even that was more than a tenth of the military force of the territory With three hundred, it was a nu problems to the rule
But now, she wanted as many troops as possible
“My deepest gratitude Then ill be heading south There, we’ll enter Djanpear, and take a shi+p to South Beim”
Baldoir was a little surprised
“Frorown flurried, and a war is starting there, correct? Understood I shall prepare at once”
With brisk movements, he left the room
Novehter once sent to this house as a bride
(… All is for Lyle-sama’s sake)
But no one could tell which Lyle she spoke of…

… Adele heard the report froht alone, and held her head
Lyle’s party had gotten cooperation froing the border
Novem’s unit had attained Djanpear’s cooperation, and the surrounding countries were currently negotiationg with Jules
And yet, Adele side was sotten any significant results
“… I should have atteer houses”
The one co a depressed Adele was Maksim
“Milady, it isn’t all bad things Looking to results, we have gotten several thousand troops on our side”
Those several thousand, to be precise, fell short of five thousand If things went poorly, there was a fear it would drop below three thousand
Adele didn’t know just how much assistance the feudal lords would offer Perhaps there were so to betray as well
When she reported as such to Lyle, the Valkyries expressionless relayed his response
“Isn’t that fine? You’ve handed the item in question to the trustworthy lord Even if a traitor cohted the preparations are getting together Hah, asn’t I stationed closer to Lyle-sama”
Thinking that last bit was unnecessary, Adele prepared to return to South Bei on the worries and complaints of small-time feudal lords
Understanding the reason Lyle had got his hands on such a large-time lord, Adele discussed with Maksim on as to come
“Maksi of troops in the east, what do you thing? By the time they flow into Beim…”
“… The harvest will be over, and it will be winter A little longer, they’ll be ready to make their march on Beim I’m sure it won’t even be two months before they arrive at Fortress Redant”
As Maksim said it with confidence, Adele nodded in relief With that much time, she could move to Djanpear, take a shi+p from there, and return to South Beim
“So how long with the fortress hold? From my point of view, I’m sure Beim has reinforced it, and their military force has increased, so over two months is…”
After she’d said that much, Maksim spoke to her with a serious face
“… Milady, Fortress Redant will only hold a feeeks At soonest, it will be breached within a week”
She couldn’t believe those words
But Maksim had ht On these sorts of fields, she trusted his words And she trusted the man as well
“I’m sure they’ve reinforced, and the troops stationed will be reater than ere there Even so, a feeeks?”
“Yes, that’s right If it were Lyle-dono, perhaps he’d be able to turn them back, but the possibility the pain would be split both ould be high”
Adele wanted to know the reason Si adventurers If those adventurers were stationed, they should be able to fight to a certain extent Adele had watched Lyle, so she thought as such
“I’ve heard they’ve plenty of skilled adventurers to spare, though?”
“That’s the hard part Skilled in that sense means skilled in sion And it’s hard to say they could establish uniforeneral of Bahnseim led the army, I think they’ll be able to breach in a feeeks”
Adele tilted her head
“With Lyle-san’s tiion of monsters”
Maksim looked troubled, as he scratched his head
“And that’s the problem It’s true a th in nuoes to show humans are more troublesome And you seem to be mistaken, so letan ar”
Adele nodded
“It’s his Skills The Walt House’s head have left such Skills in that blue gem of his, so…”
Maksim smiled And he shook his head at her
“It’s his talent to pull thee, disinterestedlysentiment, at times cruel and cold… I don’t know another teen who’d oal He holds the air of an old general, and he’s a foe I’d rather not fight”
The Lyle Maksim evaluated But if you said that to the man in question, he’d surely make a dubious expression And the ancestors in the Jeould definitely rain praise on Maksi them
Adele could only take in the words of Maksim’s explanation But it seems she couldn’t understand the deeper essence
However, if that’s what Maksireed, and stood
“Now then, in that case, we must hurry and prepare It shall beco on you”
Hearing that frohtly rubbed beneath his nose with a fingertip
“L-leave it to me, milady”
Around, the Valkyries looked at him
“It’s a waste That serious air of his”
“Wouldn’t there be a probleap?”
“But he’s a damn chicken that neither exceeds nor falls short of our master We’ve left the two of them alone so many times, yet let alone laid a hand on her, he hasn’t even confessed”
“… Though if he did, at this point, it would feel like a death flag”
Adele and Maksi voices, smiled as they discussed their future plans…
