He was an unusual boy.

Not compared to my kids, but I don't feel like I'm having a conversation with my kids, no matter how many times I exchange words face-to-face.

But I'm not a bad person, and I have no malice towards the kingdom. On top of that, he's an amazingly capable person his age as a pista.

Then it is the pinnacle of stupidity that deliberately enemies. Give him what he wants most and sell thanks. The boy's character would allow him to keep him mentally tied to the kingdom just by keeping him so.

It would certainly be to the detriment of our country if that power, which can build fortifications in an instant, were to pass to the hostile countries.

Well, as far as my mind as a straight lord until I feel good earlier, I wouldn't do anything to attack another country myself, but I'm sure I'd better keep it on my side.

"Totally... Marquis Fertio has a hell of a son."

When I say so, Aperta opens her mouth.

"But I heard the Marquis did kick Baron Van out of the house, though. Because the Marquis is one of the most successful of His Majesty's heavily used nobles. Perhaps one of the reasons I wasn't a four-element magician."

"... your ear hurts. Does it also have an impact that you have reformed the consciousness of your nobility to create a strong country?"

For once, we have to review each magic trick. I really take four-element sorcery to the top, and think about it separately from the middle, lower and each sorcery.

But the owner of magical aptitude, who had been recognized by everyone as a subordinate sorcery, did all that.

When you return to the Wang capital, do you think you will redo the study of each magical aptitude in my name?

"Come on, you can just leave the dragon after that"

If I tell you so, Aperta frowns.

"You've been the enemy of a few moves to keep the King's absence unknown. Probably a median dragon would repel it..."

I laughed at Aperta, who said that like a pain in the ass, and I saw Van's back going ahead.

"You might see something interesting again."

"I feel like I've had enough."

"Ha ha, sure"

Laughing and following Van to the top of the walls.

"Heh, Your Majesty! No more on the front line......!

"Never mind. I can protect myself."

A Kingsguard gently overheard the voice guiding me and stood on the wall.

If you look around from above the walls, those already in unusual armor are waiting by the barista for instructions. It would be the Knights by the villagers organized by Baron Van.

Looking up, there was a little dragon shadow. Flying high.

"Fly alone, two-legged flying dragon (Wyburn) …?"

There is only one shadow of a dragon, flying like a big arc over the sky. I feel very uncomfortable. No, it would be half-confidential.

Prime Minister, give me your opinion.

When I said so, Aperta nodded deeply, holding the wand in one hand. This is a special order with high purity demonic crystals at the top. Apperta points to the sky with his cane.

"There is no first situation where Wyburn flies alone and comes under attack. I was wondering if there was a different threat nearby from Wyburn."

"I agree. Yellinetta?"

"Locally, I guess. If you move a large army, you'll understand that it's moving in tandem with a small, or neighboring, Knights of Lords."

And, Aperta spoke of the discussion.

Wyburn is a relatively small dragon, originally more than five bodies. Up to 100 herds are formed and hunted in groups. The inability to use the dragon's biggest threat, breath (brace), and the inextricable movement on land make it treated as a subordinate dragon, but a sufficient threat in one piece.

I have the magical aptitude to catch that Wyburn and enslave him. Brainwashing and puppet magic. Brainwash and side Wyburn, manipulated by puppets.

This is a Wyburn operation carried out by some of the polar countries of the north, but you mean the Kingdom of Yelinetta also incorporated it?

At any rate, there's a good chance there's a puppet magician on top of that Wyburn. If you use Wyburn to do something, you're likely to find out that you've crossed the border.

So, what's the enemy after?

"What was the purpose of the surrounding village, not the fortified city, which is the stronghold?

"Scudetto, the fortified city, has a proven track record of stopping the march of the Kingdom of Yelinetta on three occasions. Perhaps a stomach build-up that uses this village as a stepping stone. Well, you don't know this village is in this situation."

"I guess that is. Even I was listening to the report. It's a non-standard village beyond my imagination. Even Yelinetta's information network won't get the details."

Agreed, look around. Stunning walls and defensive equipment that you will likely hesitate to call a village. But the Knights at heart look unique and, to be clear, they can't judge their abilities or their proficiency.

"... from the side, it could be a great opportunity."

"Right. Mm, looks like you're giving some instructions from above Wyburn. Maybe..."

Hearing the words of Aperta, I moved quickly.

"Baron Van! Wyburn isn't the only enemy, it's likely a handful of elite Knights! Watch out!

"Okay! Either way, the Adventurer Town isn't defensive enough yet, so let's evacuate it here! Dee!"

"Ha! I'll tell him to evacuate to the village immediately!

Van reacts quickly to my advice and gives instructions to his men. I'm still smart. The instantaneous power of the person, but I trust Van enough to execute it instantly without worrying my men.

It feels good to be watching the highly skilled Knights exercise.

"Now, how are you going to defend yourself?

"The Espa Knights would have built their first line of defense from the town of Adventurers, but unfortunately, they haven't even been able to do the exercise properly yet. So let the Knights of Espa direct the evacuation of the adventurers, and a full-scale defensive battle will take place in this village"

"Is this the first time you've fought a human army?

"I had already assumed. No problem."

"Hmmm...... but it's not easy if the other person is human. If there's a wise man on the enemy's side, he can attack you in ways you can't imagine depending on the pawn."

I give him the same advice that guides my son's thinking, but Van replied with little thought.

"Yes, we consider a variety of surprise attacks, including siege weapons and sorcery from long distances, the means to destroy the walls of the castle and how to enter the village without engaging. In some cases, I am prepared and prepared to abandon this village... once and for all."

And I answer slutty. That's also the answer to assuming all sorts of things, like the Knights of War.

I'd like to hear more about that one assumption at a time, but it's a shame we don't have that time.

"Everybody! Don't be in a hurry, I'll shoot you back! Don't forget your valuables, calm down and evacuate!

"Heh!

"Oh, I forgot the gold!

"Where!? I'll pick you up!

"You've got to be kidding me, you idiot!

Van gives instructions that he doesn't know if he's nervous or not, and the adventurers who respond to it are out of their minds.

Adventurers who make a fuss but quickly evacuate, and those who would be the Knights of Espa.

After accommodating them, the main gate was closed and the bridge that was passing the moat was raised.

Do the evacuees have a predetermined arrangement, and they are all moving without being instructed to do so?

Even if this village was a normal fortified city, it would seem quite difficult to let it fall. The number of inhabitants is quite small, but they are firmly united around Van and all think and act themselves to protect the village.

"... even if we can't get the boy back to the king's capital, we have to figure something out."

I groaned so little that I took out my own wand of demonic crystals.
