77 - 076 Unexpected Assistance






"You ......!"



 Sir Callum could only glare at him with a bitter expression on his face.

 But his eyes were not dead at all.



"Very well. You are a fool who does not know your place. ...... I will show you that strength alone is not enough."



 Immediately after he said this, countless magic circles were deployed throughout the room.



What the hell is this?

"Awen! No more geeks! Get ready for battle!"

"Hey, ......, I get it. But Lilt is ......."

I'm fine.



 Countless magic circles, I know exactly what they are.

 We are ready as Awen frees the geek and reaches for his sword.



"The best technology the empire has to offer! Taste it and die!"



 Lord Callum proudly exclaims, "The magic is the same as Lieutenant Cheb's, a magic doll.

 Or perhaps an enhanced version of it.



 Lieutenant Cheb was able to use that magic doll as a personal [skill], but research to weaponize that skill is underway in the empire.

 There is a relationship between nobles over huge interests and fierce factional battles are being fought.

 Lord Callum is one of the two major factions among several factions. The other was that of Lieutenant General Gugain.



 Lieutenant General Gugain, in search of practicality, was conducting his research on the battlefield, using Lieutenant Cheb himself or new recruits to find out how to operate the system.

 Meanwhile, Lord Kalm .......



"You will be able to see with your own eyes the best of what I have created. You should be grateful.



 Research was proceeding in the direction of enhancing the performance of magic dolls.

 And now the results of that research have been revealed through the magic circle.



"Hey, Lilt. ......"

"Yeah. It's strong. ......"



 Seven magical dolls emerged from the magic circle.

 Unlike Lt. Cheb's black magic dolls, each one was a sophisticated one dressed in armor.

 And they are as good as they look.

 They are powerful enough to overpower dozens of soldiers on the battlefield. Depending on how it is used, one of them can kill hundreds of enemies at a time, and if it is the same as Lieutenant Cheb, it has the advantage of being able to regenerate itself over and over again.



"Die!"



 Lord Callum, who is still bound but has regained his composure, gives orders to his magical puppets.

 He could win, but if he had to regenerate himself over and over again, it would be an endurance battle, and time was running out. I would have preferred to avoid this if at all possible. .......



"I guess we'll have to do it."



 I get ready and pick up my sword, and one of the magic dolls attacks me.



 ...kaboom!



 But it was not I who stopped it, not ...... Awen, but .......



"Go. You have work to do!"

Geek!



 For some reason, Geek was standing in front of me, holding off a blow from the magic doll.
