"All right, let's keep going through the forest and hit the Fontana guys."

　Reports came in that Fontana had made a move at the end of the harvest season.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is what most of us expected.

　Last year, there was a power struggle in the Fontana.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As a result, the Raymond faction was wiped out and the Carlos faction, which had been in power until then, was united with the Carlos faction.

　This means that it is easy to read the moves of the opponents.

　It is said that they have united the territory, but there are many who do not like it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The best way to suppress their discontent is to make them look outside of their own territory.

　They will fight the Uruks again as a common enemy and will try to stabilize the power in their own lands.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is exactly what Fontana did.

We will be leaving the forest soon, Master Keima. The watchman reports that there is no enemy on the route. We can continue our attack on Fontana's position.

"All right, let's attack as fast as we can, old man."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, I think that would be good. It's still very soon after Fontana's arrival. She is probably just taking a rest to recover from the fatigue of the trip. If we can take advantage of that opportunity, we will be able to achieve a great result.

　The old man who assists me in leading my troops speaks to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is reassuring to have him by my side, for he was once known as the fierce leader of Uruk, and he has been my instructor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He has been fighting for many years, and in this battle against Fontana, he has chosen to attack quickly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He has maintained the hill of Einrad as the Uruk family's property since the previous battle, so he knows all the places we can attack and the routes of attack from our opponents.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They have advised us of this surprise attack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We can raid where Fontana has taken position.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If we can damage them here and make them lose their head start, it will be much easier for us to win the battle since we have fortified the hill.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, we must succeed in this attack.

"Mr. Keima, we are leaving the forest. Continue with the plan.

"All right, cavalrymen, let's go on and make a bloodbath of the Fontana men!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I raise my voice just as we exit the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For this attack I have brought with me a troop of Uruk cavalry who are encamped in the hills of Einrad.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　All of them are fierce, powerful, and hardened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Riding astride these scaled, two-legged riders, my Uruk army gallops toward the enemy lines.

"...... What?　Is that true?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, I'm sure. The enemy is moving. They have detected us and are coming to intercept us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Grandpa, what's wrong?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, Mr. Keema, we've just received word. It seems that some of Fontana's troops have noticed our movement and are preparing to intercept.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What?　I thought our movements were undetectable?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It was supposed to. ....... But that shouldn't be a problem. It seems that the unit was in the middle of some other work, and only a few of them jumped out in a hurry. I thought we could just keep going and crush them."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Okay. Then let's keep marching. Let's go."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Stupid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What can a few do?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is the most powerful cavalry unit in the world.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even if we doubled our numbers, we'd be no match for them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Fine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Let's just kick them out and use their momentum to flood the enemy lines!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I gave the order to all the troops to march straight ahead toward the enemy line.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I gave the order to all the troops to march straight ahead to the enemy camp.

"Mr. Keema, we have enemy sightings. But that's ......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hey ......, are they cavalry too ....... No, but I still don't see anyone."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What the hell is that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We saw something coming toward our advancing army.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To my surprise, it was not a human figure.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Was it a messenger animal?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A large number of quadrupedal beasts were approaching us with a cloud of dust and smoke.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Strangely, however, there was no one on top of them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I wonder if they could be called cavalry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A white quadruped. It looks like it has something on its head.　Could that be the rumored Hexenbiest type?"

　The "Barka uprising," a major incident that occurred suddenly last year in a neighboring territory.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Raymond, the head of Fontana, was suddenly killed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The report of this incident has been thoroughly investigated here.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Among them, there was an unbelievable report mixed in.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The man who defeated Raymond is said to have been a boy only in the single digits of age.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But that in itself is not a problem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was his strength that attracted attention.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The greatest factor that enabled him to defeat Raymond with a single blow, despite his superior fighting experience and superior numbers, was a troop of messenger beasts that suddenly broke into the scene.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The white, horned beasts used their magic to kick the army led by Raymond to the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A hexenbiest type of beast.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They are by nature very precious and expensive.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No one would bring such a hexenbiest to battle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And yet, in Barca, many of them were deployed in actual battle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's impossible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's impossible to imagine the financial damage caused by the death of a single animal.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A hexenbiest-type beast of burden, which you must have heard about, is coming toward us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So it must be the white beast that appeared in Barca.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But are you crazy?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Such a trick will only work the first time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We've already got the information.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mentor, tell the whole army! The white one uses magic. We'll attack with magic when we're within range. And don't forget your shields!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"But is it only a hexenbiest type?　I'd like to take some of them home with me if I can."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Mr. Keema, don't think too much during the mission. You never know what could go wrong.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Don't worry, old man. I know that. Hmm?　Is there anyone in the lead hexenbiest type?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, it's true. That looks like a child. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... kid?　Don't tell me that's the guy who showed up in Barca, the one called the big eater!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A group of white monsters are coming toward us, but only a figure is at the head of the pack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Could that be the man who killed Raymond, as had been rumored?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Come to think of it, didn't he lead the charge in the battle with Raymond?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I can only call it foolishness.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　From the looks of it, we have far more beasts in our army than they do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even if they are magical beasts that can use magic, it would be reckless beyond recklessness for them to come alone to challenge us who had prepared and marched to the battlefield.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He's still a child who hasn't thought things through yet.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He probably thinks that what worked in the last battle will definitely work this time too.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"All right. Let's show the boy the strength of the Uruk cavalry. All of you, form up in spear formation! We will charge around that leading cavalryman!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, sir. All troops, spear formation! We'll break through the enemy hexenbiests!

""""" oh """""

　Thus, our Keima cavalry clashed with the white monsters of Barka.
