Chapter 99: The Red Ritual (53)
Quiet---- peaceful---- like lying on top of clouds. Relaxed, soothing like being cut off from the chaos of the world. No worries can erode you! I really want to sleep like this forever, but can I do it myself? ----
It feels as if something is poking you in the face! Out of the habit of being in the forest for many years and fighting against all kinds of animals. The drowsiness is torn apart by consciousness in an instant! At the same time, his eyes opened and stared at the target, and his hand naturally stretched out to hold his sword!
Scratch the air! I didn't touch my own sword! But this does not make yourself incombatable!
Hands and palms, in the shape of a sword, slash towards the target set by themselves in the blurred vision!
"Ahhhh-----h
It's a boy's fright! Boy? -------
He shook his head slightly, eliminating the dizziness he had forcibly pulled out of his sleep. Vision began to clear, and mixed consciousness gradually returned to normal.
"Ahh Are you okay? I'm sorry! It's my reaction by inertia, and I didn't get hurt anywhere----"
Qing hurriedly got up from the bed and went to pull the boy who was scared by herself. He was now trembling and stumbling to the ground. It seems that he inadvertently revealed his murderous aura just now!
"No, no---- I didn't mean to! I just ---- just saw that my sister was so beautiful---- I couldn't help it, I wanted to touch it------"
Qing sighed slightly, and covered her face with one hand. Very helpless--- very helpless. My appearance has caused a lot of trouble for myself! I didn't expect that even this kind of ten-year-old child would be influenced by himself-----
"Hehehe~ As long as you don't blame me for being excessive! If you're hurt, I really don't have the face to see you! Yes! That's right! Call me brother! I'm a man! ”
Gently pulled him up and patted him softly on the head. Everyone should learn to understand when a child does something wrong, so that he will not be subjected to excessive psychological pressure while making him aware of his mistakes!
Looking at the surprised and somewhat incredulous boy, Qing shrugged his shoulders and walked to the window to look out the window, the street shrouded in night. Although it was dim and some could not see the specifics clearly, it still seemed lively.
"It's time for dinner for that -------- do you want to come along?" ------”
It turned out that I wanted to shout myself to eat~. Please lowered her eyes slightly, but the momentary depression did not let anyone notice.
"Good! It's good I'm hungry too! I didn't expect you to be so caring that you would call me, an outsider, to dinner together. ”
"My brother taught me~. He always kept telling me to be polite ~ but also friendly to friends ~ -----"
"Then your brother is really amazing~! That's right! Did he also eat dinner together? ”
The boy paused for a moment as he pushed the door, then he exhaled.
"He can't come back for the time being--- the family's money was stolen by the hateful thief some time ago! If it weren't for that---- brother wouldn't need to join the expeditionary force! -----”
The boy silently pushed open the door and walked out. Qing looked at the lonely and weak figure, looking at his strong will.
He's helped himself so much, maybe ---- he should do something for him. But I don't have that much time anymore------
At least ---- protect his life-----
Thinking so, Qing followed the boy out of the guest room, and outside the room was the restaurant.
Looking at this restaurant, Qing had to admire. It really deserves to be the royal capital, even ordinary civilians can live in this comfortable big house!
However, what is not in tune with this house is the humble dinner.
"Sorry--- because of the theft in the house, so I can just bring out the best food----"
"You don't need to be like this! I should thank you for your generosity and not for you to apologize to me. You're going to make me feel uneasy! ”
Qing is a knight, although he is now a sojourner, but the morality of the knight is that he must not let the owner of the house trouble!
"It's great that you understand it that way! Come! Have a seat! ”
Aoya responded to the boy's invitation and sat down on one side of the table.
The dinner was sumptuous, at least for me, who lived in the forest! Bread, some vegetables and fruits, and plain water. It's simple, but it's much better than what you make yourself!
Dinner was spent with a simple dinner and a happy chat. Soothing times always fly by.
"So, I'll go back and rest first----"
Qing wiped his hands and wiped off the water droplets from the dishes washed together. I walked back to my room.
-----Don't you think that's too much for him?' Let him take in a man who is going to destroy this place----
Egger has awakened from his slumber, and with its help, his recovery time will be further accelerated! In other words, you can catch the last battle-----
"I'll protect him---- at least ---- keep him alive in the end----"
'Hmph~ He's going to hate you. Perhaps, he will come to you for revenge! ‘
"The hatred in the world has never gone away, I just added one more on top of that. If he really comes to me for revenge, then I will bear it all! You don't have to worry about it-----"
Qing walked to the cold window in the night without light. Bunches of torches are constantly moving.
"Yes~~~My Master~------"
But ---- it looks like your plans are starting to pick up! The city is on alert, and Angel and they should be ready too, right? ’
Egger also noticed the situation in the city through the vision shared by the green transmission! The army began to assemble, and the defenses began to be built!
"Yes! I think they're already heading here! ”
'Roar~ You're really scheming! I can't really see it--------
"That's why I prefer straightforward quick knife grabbing, and secretly calculating is not my forte!"
But you can do it! As much as you don't want to admit it, you have to admit that you have this talent! ’
Qing sighed and watched silently as she watched her every move outside the window.
Just like Iger said, when he was asleep. The gears of the plan have already begun to roll, and there is already no one to stop this!
The plan will be seen at dawn the day after tomorrow. Take the scout troops to secretly capture the slave area of Cermilla, control the entire area, release all the slaves, and invite those who are interested to join the army!
This is the first step of Qing's plan, and the second step is to command Cermila to start creating turmoil! Use the plague method to evacuate the city of Cermila! When the time comes, the city will be in your pocket.
That's when Cermila is a natural defense! With this starting point, Qing arranged for Angel to secretly expand the troops in the city, and then arranged the expanded troops in all parts of Cermira openly!
In the name of King Taluki, he will occupy the whole city, and throw all the trouble to the creditors in Nieder Saxonburg! This is the world of Cermira who really rebelled against the army! It turns out that those merchants who do not believe in the plague and are unwilling to leave will also be forced to withdraw under this double pressure.
Create a greater good when you have a benefit! Cermila is occupied by their own side, and the target of Nieder Saxenburg will also be busy!
'It's terrible~ It's really hard to live with you~'
Iger joked that in the face of this situation, Nieder Saxenburg almost had only three options!
The first is, explanation. And convene a council of kings, and send messengers to the nations to gather the kings. Of course! As a matter of sincerity, King Taluch will definitely hold a meeting outside of Niedersaxenburg! ------- is right in the middle!
Second, go on the defensive! King Taluch gathered his forces and terrorized the nations in the name of the most powerful nation. After the limelight has passed, take advantage of the trend to close Cermila! Because he didn't attack Cermila, his forces were in a very complete state! That's enough for him to withstand the attacks of the following countries! But during the defense, everything is spearheaded outward! So the city's defenses will be very weak! ----- right in the middle of it!
Thirdly, a direct attack on Cermila! King Taluch commanded his army to attack Cermila hundreds of kilometers away! At this time, Niedersaxenburg will definitely be in deficit! And Angel should now give them a long detour to attack the west gate of Nieder Saxonburg from the rear according to the original plan! In this way, Chermira has Safsky to defend it, and Angel can lead the army from the rear to flank King Taluchi's army! There is no retreat from the rear of Nieder Saxonburg, and the only thing to face in the face of King Taluch is defeat! ----- right in the middle of it!
Either way, there's no choice! Cermira was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the food and grass in the city were enough for the people of the city to eat until the spring of the following year! And the relatively easy to capture Niedersaxenburg will be pushed to the forefront!
Moreover, even if Angel is not the opponent of King Taluch in the end, he can retreat to Cermira and slowly grow stronger. But failure is basically impossible! Qing has self-confidence on the battlefield! No one can beat themselves!
"Look! The answer to everything will be revealed tomorrow when the sun rises------------"
It's late at night!
