episode_0097

Aland’s cavalry advanced with long spears at the forefront.

Not to be outdone, the Turkic forces also sent out heavy cavalry.

The Allanth flag and the Turkiye moon flag were waving and rushing towards each other at full speed.

I got off my horse to prepare for the shockwave that would occur when Auror and Auror collided again like at the beginning of the war.

“Bow!”

Kwaaang!

A wind rose along with a shock wave.

“Wow!”

The soldiers who could not bear to bow down fell backwards.

After the strong wind passed, I raised my head and saw that Allan’s cavalry was pushing against the Turkiye heavy cavalry with overwhelming force.

[attack! attack!]

Every time the King of Alant swung his sword from his horse, the Turkiye heavy cavalry was cut in two.

“Wow… That too is a monster. A monster…”

The Duke of Bastogne was quite a monster, and the King of Aland seemed to be no slouch either.

I clicked my tongue at that sight.

Alant and Turkiye, who were wiping out the Turkiye army with tremendous force, were strangely unable to use their strength.

“Turkye is nothing special…”

“It’s not like that.”

Aramis suddenly intervened.

“They haven’t been able to occupy the area for a month, and their morale is at an all-time low.”

“In a siege, isn’t usually a very long time?”

“Perhaps due to the forced departure of troops, the relationship between the soldiers and generals is not that good, and unity with other armies is also a mess.”

I was speechless at his explanation, which was like clearing water.

“Where did you know about that?”

Aramis made a circle by connecting his thumb and index finger.

“There is a way.”

“I’m dumbfounded.”

As I laughed, Aramis also laughed at the same time.

“Anyway, that’s why it’s so helplessly broken.”

“They were trying to surround Vienna and destroy it, but they fell for my trick.”

“It’s absurd that they tried to destroy it from within and then split themselves up…”

I chuckled and looked at Allant’s cavalrymen.

They swept away the Turkiye forces as easily as cutting through water and arrived in front of the collapsed fortress.

[I survived!]

[hurray!]

When the reinforcements arrived in front of them, the Vienna soldiers cheered in unison.

Unlike the cheering soldiers in Vienna, did the Türkiye soldiers sense that they were going to die soon? They had turned black.

[Let’s kill the Turki people!]

[let’s go!]

The Vienna soldiers approached the Türkiye soldiers with a fierce force.

[I will surrender! Do not kill me!]

The Turkiye army, surrounded by the Osterburg army in the front and the Aland army in the back, threw down its weapons and raised its hands.

[What are these guys talking about? Let’s just kill it!]

[Seeing as they are throwing away their weapons, aren’t they trying to surrender?]

[surrender? There is no way.]

A soldier stepped forward, holding an axe.

[We surrendered, we surrendered!]

[What is this guy saying?]

[I don’t know what you’re talking about, but just kill me!]

Sigh!

The thick ax blade split Turkiye’s skull in half.

[Did you see it? Kill them all quickly!]

The Vienna soldiers all rushed at the Turkiye soldiers who surrendered.

[Ahh! You say you will surrender, but why are you attacking me?!]

[help me!]

The Turkiye soldiers screamed in despair and were eventually killed.

[The heretics are retreating!]

At the shout of the soldier on the watchtower, everyone turned their heads toward the Turkiye army’s headquarters.

They were so desperate that they even abandoned their tents and ran away.

[Your Highness, it seems like now is the time to chase down the Turkiye forces!]

King Allant shook his head at the shouts of his subjects.

[No, it would be dangerous to go now.]

[Isn’t it better to chase after him now that he’s running away?]

[They will be preparing for chase as they run away. So it is actually more dangerous to go now.]

[Then what will you do?]

In response to the subject’s question, King Allant stretched his arms upward.

[Clearing the situation here is more important than chasing! Destroy the remaining enemies!]

At the order of King Aland, the cavalrymen spread out and swept away the fleeing Turkiye forces.

“Let’s get into Vienna quickly!”

I nodded at Viscount Ajaccio’s words.

They began to kill the remnants of the Turkiye army that had entered Vienna.

It was difficult to find them hiding between the buildings, but this is where Laurent’s ability shined.

“There it is!”

“Let’s go!”

He found the hiding Turkiye soldier, wondering how he could find out.

“Gotcha, you guy!”

Laurent grabbed Soldier Türkye by the back and dragged him through the street.

[Please save your life…!]

Phew!

[Ouch…!]

Soldier Turkiye, who was crying and screaming, died with a sound of boiling phlegm when his throat was pierced.

“Next is over there!”

Thanks to Laurent’s actions, we were able to successfully clear out the remaining party members.

The Elance Volunteer Army and the Holy Alliance entered Vienna as if in triumph.

[hurray! Long live the Holy Alliance!]

The citizens of Vienna welcomed the Holy Alliance with cheers.

On the other hand, when we came in, they didn’t say anything and just clapped.

“This is won…”

I smiled bitterly and looked at the citizens of Vienna.

Still, I wondered where I could get applause.

“Ah, I feel like I saved this for no reason.”

Lotos scratched his head and looked at the citizens of Vienna.

“The temperature difference is too big compared to the Holy Alliance?”

“Lotos.”

Aramis stopped Lotos, who was starting to get more and more angry.

“You must know that they hate us as much as we hate them.”

“No, I know, but the human mind is a bit like that.”

Lotos sighed.

“I just think I did a good job.”

Laurent patted Lotos on the shoulder.

“Okay… let’s think we did a good thing…”

[hurray!!!]

We gave up on saying thank you and decided to go inside the castle, but suddenly someone appeared from a corner shouting hurray for us.

He enthusiastically raised his arms and shouted “Hurrah!”

[hurray!]

Then the citizens of Vienna took notice and began to shout hurray.

“Hehe…”

Viscount Ajaccio smiled and looked at the citizens of Vienna.

“Still, there are people who shout hurray.”

“That’s right.”

We marched down the street with happy expressions on our faces.

#

After the triumphal procession, we were able to enter the royal palace and meet Charles V.

“The royal palace in Österburg is also amazing.”

I looked around and looked at the royal palace.

Although it was very different from the architectural style of Elance, it had a different charm.

In front of the large gold-decorated door, a servant turned to me.

[Please take off your helmet before entering.]

[Do I have to take it off?]

[That is not etiquette.]

“Keu…”

I groaned and took off my helmet.

[Huh…!]

The chamberlain was startled when he saw my face and turned his head to the side.

I roughly brushed off the sweaty bangs that stuck to my forehead and looked around.

[Heehee…!]

The other people there also looked at me in surprise.

“Why are you reacting like this?”

“I feel bad for no reason because of that reaction.”

Laurent brushed my bangs to the side.

I quietly stuck my head out to him.

“Why you?”

“Everyone is looking at Mari, so I just want to hide her.”

“Well… don’t say that…”

At Laurent’s whisper, I blushed and lowered my head.

[Hmm! Let’s go in first.]

The servant coughed loudly and opened the door.

[Welcome!]

King Charles V of Österburg welcomed us with socks.

To be exact, it seemed like the Holy Alliance was more welcoming than us.

[Now that I think about it, you said they were Elance’s volunteer army?]

In response to Charles V’s question, Viscount Ajaccio, who did not know the Austrian language, was dumbfounded.

I, who couldn’t see it, intervened from the side.

[These people gathered at the earnest request of Queen Anne.]

[Anne? Do you mean Anne?]

Charles V asked me with wide eyes.

[Yes, I came because Queen Anne asked me to help Österburg.]

[But the 14th year old of Anjou… Hmm! Anyway, didn’t King XIV of Anjou object?]

Certainly, XIV of Anjou was opposed to supporting Österburg.

I don’t know how much coffee I received, but I received so much coffee that I tried not to go to the military at all.

[That guy, Armand, would have been especially against it…]

Charles V gritted his teeth.

[That guy must have been actively insisting not to help, he is a very dirty guy.]

[…]

I looked at him without saying anything.

[Oh my, I was so angry that I ran all the way. Anyway, thank you for helping Österburg in this crisis.]

When Charles V took my hand and tried to shake it, I pulled my hand back.

He stared at me at my attitude.

[Why but?]

[Who would shake hands even after hearing their adoptive father’s insults?]

[You…were you Armand’s adoptive daughter?]

Charles V’s pupils shook wildly.
