Vol 15 Chapter 292 (2/2)
“Maizel-sama, the preparations are in order We can depart anytime… a letter?”
He looked atop Maizel’s desk, and Maizel nodded
“Celes sent a letter tellingto Centralle first It’s no good to ry I’ve prepared letters and some presents”
A nu they wanted him to come to Centralle Nor like that for would be her parents In the case that soed fros to a personal torture and execution from Celes herself
That’s just how important of an existence Maizel was to her While other people held value akin to nothing, her parents alone were separate
“Currying favor with somen? It’s because even you’re like that, that I feel ashamed as a man”
To Beil’s joke, Maizel laughed
“I think it would be scarier if they stop showing any reaction at all Now then, we h House’s participation in this war?”
As Maizel rose to his feet, Beil’s expression grew stiff
“… They cannot send out troops They used casualties froation as a reason, but how sorrowful a tale to hear frorown old And for my nephew Baldoir to suffer injury at the hands of a bandit…”
Seeing Beil’s apologetic face, Maizel spoke
“Based on how things go, you h House Well, it’s soet back”
The two left the room
The Walt House was finally beginning its march on Rhuvenns…

Inside Rhuvenns castle
Therooather at once were General Blois, Baldoir, Lianne and Monica The others were off working elsewhere, and they wouldn’t be back for a few days
I turned to those gathered in the conference room as I spoke
“… Word cahty percent of their vassals are tagging along, and on top of that, the neighboring lords haveforce is around thirty five thousand, apparently”
General Blois touched a hand to his chin
“That’s a bittroops would number below thirty thousand The Walt House seems to put a firm effort into rear support, after all”
Monica relayed the contents of the report to everyone
“They areuse of the Porter developed in Aruathered, and it seereatly optimized their transport”
Lianne listened to the report
“We’ve ress there as well If the enemy comes to invade, the battlefield will be our territory, so we’ll be at an advantage when it co, but… let my ask bluntly Are the preparations ready?”
What Lianne asked was about the military Were we ready?
I was a little discontent, but I spoke the truth
“We’ll be fighting near the border, so the preparations are underway But that’s at seventy percent We have a grasp on the terrain, and the preparations to intercept theht problem with the troop formation”
Baldoir took over my explanation
“Our horses and equipment is insufficient We havedifference In pure fighting soldiers, we can mobilize fifty thousand”
Lianne put it plainly
“So while in in numbers, we can’t reach double If we put out too e problem It will be difficult to supplement our troops”
Right It was difficult for us to secure troops There were no inhabitants of the ruined land of Rhuvenns Beiardless of whether we lost, or won at great cost, there would be a proble troops
General Blois let out a sigh
“More than simple numbers, there’s a problem with quality, you see The Walt House… it has an adequate reason to be called Bahnsei the soldiers, there are ht It’s a bit hard to understand why they’d have to train them to that level”
There, the Third and Seventh in the Jewel gave voices that indicated they didn’t feel sorry at all
『Sorry Blois-kun See, the Second told me to do it I just followed his words Really sorry』
『… A single large reason is that Centralle kept relying on the Walt House, forcing us to build up the kno Well, it’s the Walt Army we raised up There’s no way in hell it would be weak!』
Starting with our founder, the arhth Generation Head Maizel Walt
I knew it already, but how troublesome
The deadresolved for death, they were Walt House soldiers What’s h I’m not sure to what extent
Lianne, in regards to us
“At the very least, to bring about our final battle with Bahnseim, we’ll need at least a hundred thousand troops You’re all eable on battle than me, but the probleh troops, the surrounding countries shall ht of him”
It wasn’t that all would be well if on And I had to fight my father under that situation
I looked over everyone
“To speak to the contrary, if we grasp victory here, ill be thatit with ene Bahnseim’s capital… Centralle immobile, we’ll be able to approach with ease Bahnseim lost troops in the previous battle If we can defeat the Walt Army here…”
General Blois shrugged his shoulders
“… It’s been nothing but rebellions within the countries I’et loads of feudal lords who’ll cooperate if you do”
In a sense, this battle seized the light and dark of ht with Bahnseim If they inclined once, it would be hard for Bahnseim to recover Even for Celes
And Baldoir addressed all
“The Walt House is a threat, but the other lords taking part are a threat as well A our former friends, I think we should be plenty wary of the Forxuz House”
Hearing that Forxuz House, Lianne
“That would be Nove?”
I recalled the Forxuz House Nove them was at my side, but that tribe was included in my father’s troops
Baldoir spoke
“Of course They’re akin to master and servant with the Walt House, so while they’re often spoken lightly of… having seen them myself, they’re an ample threat Especially their faic I believe you will understand if you look at Novem… sama’s ability”
In a battlefield without Skills, Magic would beco in ic would become a threat
(How does Nove her home?)
I thought, as I issued orders around
