The Heir of the Dragon Emperor and his Bride Corps

──A few days later, at the fort of “Rikukaku Order” 団

"Tell the peasant soldiers, 'I have no place to return to you. Become a soldier to guard this fort in order to realize our nation!'"

A senior cult man shook his sword and shouted.

The people at the fort raise their hands and respond to their voice.

The fort is taking place right after dawn, in this, every morning.

"Let's wake up the peasant soldiers on the ground! It's time for Guru Treasure to begin training! The delay deserves death!"

One of the subordinates who heard the voice of the executive starts running.

The executive looked at it and smiled with satisfaction, stroking a giant dragonfly on his shoulder.

Rumors "But ... is it true that Guru-Pillar was defeated?"

No response has yet been received from troops that attacked villages near the outskirts.

The squadron's main unit is moving to fight against Kittle Omori. You cannot turn a rescue soldier. We are the only ones who defend the fort.

"But no enemy will climb this far."

The fort stands on a steep rocky mountain. There is only one way to the top. There, fences are set up and several guards are placed. Once legitimate soldiers have arrived, it is not so easy to capture.

There are a number of crags between the human realm and the frontiers where the inhabitants and demons live.

The fort The rocky mountain runs off the middle and out of the way, but some forts are no longer in use. The number counts five. The cult scrutinized it and decided to use it. Because it is small, only about a dozen people can stand up. Still, it's just a good way to remind the bottom of the gap.

Under direct control, he created a lookout hut and barracks on the ground. The lower end is pushed into it. The watchman has a subordinate. The poor peasant soldiers whose lives are regrettable will fight desperately. It's the last time our executives fight. That's fine.

Supplies "Our job is to secure ourselves. And we need to get behind the legitimate army in case of emergency. We have to make those peasant soldiers available by then."

"Which garrison commander!"

A soldier who had gone to the messenger returned and knelt in front of an executive.

"The lower one has begun to fuss. It seems that there is information that there is a move to attack this fortress apart from Alicia's regular soldier ..."

"again"

Satoshi: "Yes, before I know it, the cloth on which the letters were written has been put on. 'The cult will soon be destroyed. Run away.'" Taimori: "Kitl in the southwest. I guess. "" But you can't ignore it. "

"Not at all ... Zako is in a hurry and frustrated."

The executive laughed.

The dragonfly on the shoulder laughs, as if to respond to his voice.

Stepping underneath is a centipede wearing a black shell. Hard for demons only, it is difficult for swords and arrows to pass. It is more faithful and usable than humans.

"There is a guru," Grill Treasure "here. I don't want to be afraid of regular soldiers in rotten countries."

"But the peasant soldiers are the ones who are forced to take them ... they just want to return to the village.

"If you show success, your anxieties will disappear."

The executives spread their arms and shout, as if to blow away their subordinates' anxiety.

Supplies "There is only one way to the fort. If it's time, you'll have to block it. There's plenty of what you've taken from the village. We'll drop arrows, fire, and rocks from above. What are you afraid of! "

"Well, I understand that those of low religion are anxious. Take some senior soldiers at the fort and lower them down to the barracks. Fool the noisy and strengthen your defenses on the ground. The anxiety will go away. ''

"understood!"

A messenger soldier stands up and starts running.

An executive looked out the window and saw a messenger and several soldiers descending the mountain path.

"Already, our destiny is down!"

The executives roar toward the ground.

Rikukaku: "Our" Cult "will replace Alicia and create a new dynasty on this land. You are at the scene of its creation. Rescue your name more than life! Of the dynasty that will continue into the future forever, The name was "I was there at the beginning! Huh, Huha, Hahahahahahahahahahaha!"

"Um.

I heard a voice.

From behind the executives and the believers.

Looking back, there were several people standing with blue cloth wrapped around their faces.

The suspicious person, no matter how you look.

"I've been observing for a while, but it looks like we've cut 10 people at the fort, so it's time to get it."

When did it appear?

Watchtower of the fort: The people who appeared on the porch protruding to the west quietly looked at the cult leader.

I don't know the face. Perhaps because of the dazzling light at dawn, even the form looks blurry.

"I got the information from the soldiers who attacked the village. The location of the fort, the strength, the cult's daily schedule, so I visited him at this time before dawn."

The man who hid his face with a blue cloth is tweeting lightly.

Ryu Emperor: "I'm asking you to do that. I'm asking about the ruins of an old fort here. Let's check it out." "What, what, what, oh!

"I don't need to worry about that."

The man at the head told the executive to lick.

"We just want to look into this facility. Of course, if we resist, we'll destroy it."

"This is the top of a rocky mountain! How did you get in?"

"Hmm"

The man who hid his face pointed at his back.

Wings There was a pure white back on the man's back.

Executives open their eyes involuntarily. I know about the people who fly in the sky. But they have arms on their wings. I don't know anyone who has wings on his back.

And what are the girls behind them? Each of them has a sword and a club. Behind them are fallen soldiers. Even if you intrude from the sky without realizing it ... you can make a soldier stun shortly before ...

"Kisara ... who are you!"

The cult leader shouted.

Overlord "passing through" "that's it!"

The girls behind the man shouted.

Attack "To defeat the cult of the village," "And for the stable life of my brother," Variant "" In the name of Nono, we have begun to capture this fort !! "" " ! "

The executive shook his sword and shouted.

"If you're a king! Don't playfully! Don't let the king pass through this place! Don't be a fool!"

"You look angry."

The man sighed and looked at the two girls.

"So you're telling me to stop doing that?"

Sister-in-law "But my brother!" "It's my instinct to boast about my brother!"

""Yeesss""

"Don't playfully !!!! Come, insects!"

The executive shakes his arm.

Insect-type demons gather from the surroundings according to the voice.

Armor Dragonflies with wings larger than the person's arms spread. Large centipede with a harder shell. Both are the trump cards he received from his guru.

Most of the soldiers in the fort have been sent to the ground.

The fence made on the mountain road has disappeared. In that case, a large number of soldiers cannot pass at once.

In addition, it is an emergency arsenal, a training facility for turning farmers into members of the cult. The number of soldiers is small and the fighting power is low.

But there is no problem. There are only three enemies.

In addition, there is an insect-type monster that has been entrusted by the mentor.

Rikukaku cult "I'm sorry to regret my" "."

The blue man sighed.

"I heard that using black magic would increase the distortion of the world and increase the number of demons again.

Eat "Noisy! I'll take that head!" ! 』

The big dragonflies go straight to the enemy.

Even if it looks like a dragonfly, it's a monster. The head alone is larger than the human torso, and its jaws can chew the human head.

"Let's see what your face looks like after crushing your head! Yukei!"

Purification flame "Burning off!"! "

Behind the man in Bandana, a silver-haired girl shook his arms.

And a blue flame is born from that fingertip.

"Gigigigagaaaaaaaaaa!" ! 』

The dragonflies burned to the wings.

"Well, magic !? The rotten Alicia regular soldier has a wizard !?"

"Oh, we're not national soldiers."

"My brother. Can I stop the dragonfly?"

"Hello. Enchantment has been done."

"Yeah, then."

Gushaa.

A club with a red-haired girl knocked down the dragonfly's head.

"Why? With a wooden club !?"

"Ta, oh, oh, oh, oh!" "What are these guys doing ?!"

The soldiers on the left and right of the cadre begin to shake.

Assault Charges: Those who can't use it. Whether attacking the village or fighting the lord's soldiers, the maggots are leading the way. The soldiers shouted from behind. This is the first time that he has been attacked.

And there are only two of them here except for the executives.

They are already running away.

"Let's play Youko!

The executive man shouted.

"Then the lower peasant soldiers will come! Show them where they are eaten by insects and you will be sullen to the unwilling peasant soldiers!"

There are still six insects left. Long worms with black shells. This is my favorite.

Shell “This guy can't penetrate with a normal sword. 』

Six centipedes crawl from below the cadres.

large. The total length will be about two adults.

Innumerable legs squirm eerily, and the body's surface is covered with a glowing shell.

"Captain of the garrison!"

"what?"

"Yeah, you may not hear me as a yoko, so I can call you directly!"

"... I'm gonna run away. You guys."

An executive has pointed his finger at his men.

At that signal, two centipedes begin to move.

"Hyah!" "Hyah ah ah!"

Is good!

The subordinate swings down the sword. However, the centipede shell does not flutter. Not even a wound.

As it is, the centipede pushes down on his subordinates and hits his jagging fangs on his body.

The subordinates who are pushed down by the demon blow out bubbles and faint. Still, executives do not try to get rid of the bugs.

Coward, "Why don't you tell me to fight with me? There is no place in the religion, such as a place where you live!"

I'm sorry.

Club A red-haired girl beats a large centipede. The impact causes the centipede's body to roll sideways. But that was it. The centipede remains intact, shines red eyes, and screams in anger.

"My brother. The club doesn't seem to work? Can you lend me your brother's sword?"

"I see. Yes this."

"'Chokaitai'?"

Super Sister “Yeah.” Sister-in-law “Oh, it's sly. I also use my brother's sword!”

"It makes sense to be handed directly by my brother!

Three of the intruders were laughing.

"... what are they?"

Cold sweat conveys the cult leader's forehead.

I'm not afraid of the centipedes approaching.

"Why aren't you scared ?! That's where you're being cornered !?"

Executives don't even know what they are doing.

However, I felt dangerous. "You must never be involved with them." I felt such a fundamental fear. But I can't retreat here. So executives believed in visible power rather than in their own senses.

"Whatever you do is slow! Get eaten. Intruders!"

"" "" "

Saku-kun.

The long swords of the three masked men cut the large centipede body.

"Shugyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" ! 』

"…………What?"

The screams of wounded insects and the whimsical voices of executives.

The intruders' swords penetrated the outer shell of the large centipede easily. The centipede monster must have never been hurt. Forgetting about the enemy in front of him, he keeps shouting.

Purification flame "It's one more time."

A silver-haired girl casts magic at the torn black shell.

A blue flame jumps into the centipede's body, burning the monster meat from inside.

It seemed that the man was burning flames, but was that an illusion of fear? The centipede was wiped out in sight, and the slashed cadres without any questions were easily destroyed by weapons. I mean, what is a long sword that cuts off the sword of a work? The moment I thought, my head turned white.

"... Why, why am I ... in such eyes ...?"

When he noticed, the executive was tied up.

The intruders are now leaving his room as if they had lost interest in the executives.

Then, after a while, screams such as "What !?" or "Guguya!"

And there are signs that go around and sounds like people fall.

The fort is under the direct control of the executive. If it were to be wiped out, all that would be left would be the forcibly gathered peasants. I don't think I can compete against that intruder.

Destruction In this fort, there is no face to match the guru. The cult is a thorough meritocracy. Other cadres will not tolerate himself after the fort.

"Yes, it's a magic circle!"

"... a magic circle?"

The cult leader muttered at will.

Speaking of which, a strange pattern was drawn on the floor of the warehouse of the fort. I don't know what it is, it's useless, so I let it go ... what was their purpose? But what does that mean?

"... I'll have you wait ..."

"... it's time for ice magic."

"... I'll make her a castle lord."

They are talking about something. It seems like another person is coming from outside.

An executive who has fallen to the floor is desperately listening-

The fort is wrapped in white light.

"... what is this?"

Clear particles of light are waiting in the atmosphere.

Strange but not unpleasant. It was rather a peaceful light.

Dead body In the light, the insects disappear. It was like melting. No body fluids, no broken legs, no fragments.

"I'm done.

(Will you return !?)

The executive shouted silently.

Was good. You can now rebuild this fort.

There is a second guru, Glia Treasure, on the ground. If he had an insect, he would be back again. You can control the peasants with fear. The cult is not over yet ...

"What should we do now? Will we go home?"

"I haven't really fought. Let's look for the next fort."

"Yes, my brother. There may be other magic circles."

"I agree, there is only one remaining fort. I think it's easier to put it away and go home."

"…………Yes?"

Have you said one more fort now?

The cult has only four forts ... but what happened to the other two except here! ?

"The King"

"Is your job done? I'll send you."

"I've been preparing for the stuff, but I didn't need it."

"I dropped the cloth on which I wrote the letters. I read the soldiers."

A voice came from outside the fort.

The boss on the floor cannot see it.

Eventually, the sound of a large bird flapping ... the sign of the intruder disappeared completely.

"... what was it ... now"

The executive muttered, lying on the floor.

A body tied with a rope cannot move. The inside of the fort is quiet.

Restraint Perhaps his direct reports are doing the same.

The assailant walks down the floor and heads for the insect. He seems stunned, but at the chest is a caller whistle to call for peasants. The cadre finally arrived there, breathing in a big breath and then whispering at once. Many times. Many times.

That's it! !

After a while, footsteps were heard.

Appearing were dozens of peasant soldiers gathered by the cult to attack villages.

They had their eyes rounded in front of an executive lying on the floor.

"Come well! Brave soldiers of the cult!"

The executive shouted.

"The mysterious intruder has killed the insect from the lord, and I was in such an eye. Our face is completely destroyed as it is!"

Jerking.

In order to keep the dignity, the executive screams while raising his upper body.

"I can't stop it! I'll look at those who have invaded our fort and regret having been born! Now, first untie my ropes. For that ......... that ... a little !? "

"" "" ............... "" "

The peasant soldiers are all expressionless.

While looking down on the fallen executive, just mutter “Hey” “Foo” “Hoh”.

Several executives run into other rooms and return after tens of seconds. Everyone smiles for some reason. I make a circle with both hands. The other peasant soldiers answered, "Oh, they're all helpless."

"What are you doing! Do your orders quickly! The opponent is the insect bait of the guru" Gria-Treasure "!"

After raising his voice --- a senior man noticed.

Peasant soldiers are rising to the fort. But there is no guru.

Strange.

To prevent the peasants from fleeing, Guru Glea-Treasure should be on ground.

You should have heard the sound of Yobuko. But why don't you come ...

"Guru-Treasure is gone."

"What is ----?"

"Some days ago, when the fort glowed, it evaporated and disappeared, leaving no large crystals, which had been recovered by a figure from the sky. All the insects that had scared us had disappeared. "

"Bad, idiot! Yeah, right. Look in the warehouse! The intruder must have done something there. Destroy it and your guru will come back ..."

"I couldn't enter the warehouse."

The peasants respond, looking down on the cult leader with cold eyes.

"There was a giant 'ice wall' around the warehouse. I couldn't approach it, but we don't mean to do that."

"The guru and the insect have disappeared, and you are bound this way."

"The cult leaders who forced us to fight us."

The peasants approach slowly.

Cold sweat spreads through the back of the executive. I don't understand the situation.

All I know is that the guru and the insect are no longer here.

Cold sweat spreads on his back.

So ... he's no longer on his side.

“……… Um… that… I ’m…”

The executive's face turns blue.

「「 「「 ふ ふ。 ふ ふ ふ ふ ふ ふ ふ 」」 」「 」

Eerie laughter begins to emerge from the peasant soldiers' mouths.

"" "I often attacked the village, robbed the crops ... they stuck us ..." "

Sublime "Wait and wait. That's for the purpose of the cult .... Yes, for the New Dynasty! What is the New Dynasty? If you make a New Dynasty, you can become a hero! Well, what about the generals !? All soldiers are historically new as a general's corps. "

And ──

"Gap!"

The screams of the leaders of the cult reverberated in the fort of Rikukaku "Kyoto".
