 Elena had called all the executives who could be summoned under the current circumstances.

 There were 15 members in total. Eleven of them were women, because many of them were Elena's children.

"Now, I would like to start the emergency meeting.

 Alietta Aeolial, who had been appointed chairperson, called the meeting to order.

"As you may have already heard, the Federation of Magic has been weakened. In other words, this is our chance to make a comeback.

 A voice said, "Oh, I see.

"First, let's have our comrade Arum, who was brainwashed until the other day, explain to us what's going on.

 Arrietta nominated Arum.

"This is Arum Pitt. Fortunately, I have been released from the brainwashing and am back where I belong. The situation with them is as follows: ......"

"This is a once in a lifetime opportunity!"

 This time, on the contrary, they are noisily energetic. Mostly male executives.

"Quiet!"

 Arietta, the chairperson, rebuked them.

"Let's hear your opinion, Elena-sama.

 The room fell silent as a voice said, "Yes, we need to hear your opinion.

"As an advisor, I would like to give my opinion. Right now, the centripetal force of the <> has been drastically weakened. After fomenting internal division for a while now, I would like to take back first the base in Kasimunore and then the headquarters on the island of Elektra.

"I see, that makes sense. But how long do you think it will take?

 One of the male officers asked Elena a question.

"About five days to a week.

"And why is that?"

"We thought it would be appropriate to keep it that long, because if we were to do it for too long, the other side would notice. Also, we would only need that much time for preparation.

"I understand."

 The questioner seemed satisfied with this explanation.

"Is there anything else?"

"Yes, I would like to ......."

 After a couple of questions, the meeting moved on to the next topic. After a couple of questions, the meeting moved on to the next item on the agenda, which could be described as a de facto strategy meeting.

"What can we do to counter Guillermo Marchitas?"

 I thought this was going to be a ...... discussion with no one expressing an opinion,

"He seems to be almost ...... completely uninterested in the current <," said Arum.

 Alm said.

"So, I think we don't have to worry too much about it, at least when it comes to the recapture of the Kassimunore base.

"Hmmm, that's interesting.

 Wattes Shrezza, the most senior male officer, showed interest.

"The Kassimnore base has a mine and is a lifeline for materials. We want to take it back for sure.

 Wattes is interested in this operation because of his position as a general staff member in military affairs.

"Since it is far from the Kingdom of Elias, we will have a good chance of winning if we can suppress the warp gate.

"Certainly, it is important to make it impossible to call for reinforcements.

 Leelia and the other female executives agreed with her opinion.

"But the problem is how to neutralize the brainwashed ex-party members.

"In this regard, I have borrowed a magical tool from a certain source that can disarm the brainwashing.

 There is also an automata, Liese, but Jin and the old man thought that this would be more effective in carrying out the operation, so they hastily manufactured it and lent it to us.

 In short, it is a magic tool that gives an impact with a specific magic wave.

"Oh, that's good. If we can remove the brainwashing from one by one, our forces will soon be reversed.

 Wattes is pleased that his strategy seems to be working.

"There are supposed to be five warp gates at the Kassimunore base, but there is another emergency warp gate that is connected to this one.

 This information was known only to a very few, and fortunately none of the brainwashed knew it. Their plan is based on this.

"And once we've moved on, we have to shut down the warp gate.

 If we do this, we will not be able to call for reinforcements, and we will not be able to escape.

"In case anyone notices the emergency gate and runs this way, we will take care of it.

 This is because the warp gate can be used in both directions.

Now we need to know what they have on their side. ...... alm, what do you think?

"Yes, as far as I know, there are about 50 people in there at any given time. In addition, there are about 10 battle golems.

"hmm...... are those battle golems autonomous?"

"Yes."

 Wattes Shrezza paused to think about it.

"How do you distinguish between friend and foe?"

"Oh, that's easy. <, and those who have them are our allies, and those who do not have them are ......."

"Enemies, huh? Hmmm, plain and simple. ...... if you know what that ID card looks like.

"Oh, I do."

 Arum held up his ID card and showed it to me.

"I see, you've been brainwashed, so it's only natural that you have one. Can ...... it be duplicated or forged?"

"Well, I don't know. ......As far as I know, the waveform of an individual's magical power is recorded."

"I see. ...... but what if there is more than one of the same thing?"

"I don't know ....... There is no precedent for that.

 That's the point I'm trying to make, I guess.

"But it's better than nothing. I'd like to make a duplicate of that ID and have everyone who comes in have one. Hopefully they'll recognize us as allies, and maybe they'll get confused. It's better than doing nothing."

 But there was one problem with that plan.

"But how can we duplicate it?"

"Well... ......"

 Elena nodded her head.

 She had examined it once, but it seemed to be a highly sophisticated magical tool, and she had been unable to analyze it.

 But...

"I have an idea.

 Elena had a reassuring backup.

"Oh, that's my girl!"

"Wait a day or two for my ID. In the meantime, let's get ready to retake the base.

"Yes, sir. How many of our combat golems can we use?

Yes, we have six at the moment.

 The young man in charge answered.

"How many more can we get before the operation starts?"

"Well, ...... I'd say about one every two days.

"Six days would mean three."

Yes.

"Hmmm... ...... 9 in total. I think I can manage that.

 Wattes thought he could use them to his advantage.

"Do you have non-lethal weapons and armor ready?"

"Yes, we have enough paralyzing staffs (stun rods) in stock. As for armor, we have enough .

"Well, that's not a problem."

 Wattes drew up a plan.

 Elena reviewed the plans and pointed out any problems.
