They came to the prince and the left general, who were surrounded by the flame knights and unable to move.

　It seems that the SS moved to help the prince, but all of them were seized by the flame knights.

　If the flame knight normally touched the flame, the unquenchable flame would catch on fire to those it touched.

　That's why I've deliberately coated the body surface of the flame knight with a thin layer of water magic to prevent it from burning even if you touch it.

　I think I'm a pretty naive guy who cares this much about my enemies.

''Oh, you are a human race, aren't you?　Why do you point your sword at us, my people!

　The prince asked with a twitch in his face.
　It's a spear that I'm pointing at you.

I told you before, I am the second princess of Alheim, Rifa, and the husband of the hero Tina. What's wrong with defending my wife's homeland?

　And my home country of Glendale is not allied with Apristos.

　In this world where conflicts between races as well as among other species are constant, there was no problem for me to fight a non-aligned country.

''Well, now that I've accomplished one of my goals... what do you guys do?''

What's the plan?

"If you find out I'm the enemy, do you still want to invade Alheim?　I mean.

...if you say you have.
You don't need to answer that question, do you?

　The flame knight brings his spear closer to the prince and the left general.

''Guh!''
Hi, hi.

　The left general stiffened and the prince made a pitiful noise.

'But I don't like killing too much.

　With that, I let the Knight of Fire be drawn.

　Living in a peaceful country in my former world, I had never been involved in killing.

　That's why I had some resistance to killing someone who looked like me.

　But that doesn't mean I would never kill.

　If it was to protect Tina and the rest of my family, I wouldn't hesitate to do so.

　If I don't, I won't survive.
　This is the world we live in.

"You're going to let me off the hook?

If I let you go, will you swear to me that you will never again invade my country?

　I didn't want to kill a fleeing enemy.

　If Apristos' army turned back, I wasn't going to kill a single man.

'I swear, I swear, I will not touch this country!　So let me go!

　The prince began to get down on his knees.

'Let me promise you that I will not touch this country either.

　That's what the Left General said.

But if you guys don't show up, someone else might, right?

What?
What?

　Ten thousand flaming knights were returned to magical power.
　An enormous amount of magic power drifted across the prairie.

　I sent that magic power into a thing I had prepared beforehand.

　The earth shakes.

　A huge magician's circle appeared, covering the entire prairie.

''Hi, hi!''
What the f*ck?
Hey!　Don't break ranks!
Mm, I can't do it, captain.
The magic circle!　There's an attack coming!
I've never seen a magic circle this big before.
It's over. I'm not going to get away with this.

　Screams and cries of resignation from three thousand private troops and one hundred thousand national troops.

'You will be sacrificed to spread the awareness that it is not a good idea to invade this country.

"I thought you were going to let me off the hook!　I'm the one who got down on my knees!

"You don't deserve to get down on your knees. You were about to destroy my friend, the elves. Don't you deserve it?

　Hearing my words, the blood drained from the prince's face.

　The left general drew his sword and slashed at me.
　He must have thought that killing me would stop the magic from being activated.

''Don't die!''

　The left general's sword is coming at me at high speed...


　But the sword never reached me.

"I'm really pissed off about being forced to come home for the first time.

　The sylph was catching the left general's sword.

''Seh, Spirit King Sylph!

　The Left General was astonished to see the sylph that suddenly appeared.
　It's not unreasonable.

　I'm not going to be able to get rid of it.

　I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what I'm talking about.

I'm sorry. It's all their fault.
Hmm.

　The killing spirit poured out of the sylphs.

　The prince at close range, the left general, as well as all the soldiers on the prairie were in a state of panic due to the killing spirit of the sylphs.

I was forced to return home because of your attack. What do you think about that?

　The left general could only shake his body with a wobble as he received the sylph's killing intent at the closest distance.

''Sylph, leave it at that.

　With a huff, the sylph's killing spirit subsided.

　The left general collapsed to the spot.
　The prince was wet at the crotch of his pants.
　Most of the SS were unconscious.

''Hmm, I hope Hurt says so. What is this magic circle used for? Aren't these guys going to kill me?

　The sylphs look young and have a lot to say.

'Well, we'll see. I'm ready to go.

　I activate the magic circle.
　The magic circle begins to glow.

　And from the center to the surrounding area, it is filled with black.

　The soldiers who touched the blackened magic circle are disappearing more and more.

"It's gone!
''Hey! 　Run!
Ugh, wow!
Here it comes...

　The prince, the left general, his private army, and even the 100,000-strong national army were swallowed up by the magic circle.

　And me and the sylphs.


　The sylphs.

Where's this?
So we're not dead yet?
Didn't we get swallowed up by magic?
Oh, that!
You're kidding me.

　What the soldiers saw was what...

　It was the royal capital of Apristos.

　This was the flatland where the Apristos State Army had gathered their entire army when they started their march towards Alheim.

　I returned the flame knight to his magical power and used his massive magical power to force the Apristos State Army and the prince's private army, a total of 103,000 people, to metastasize.

　They had heard that Apristos was going to attack here and had come here with Tina's flying magic until the ministers were told of the plan.

　That's when I marked the transition.

　Tina knew I was planning to send the enemy back to the country in transition.

　It wasn't just Tina.

　The Elf King and his classmates, including Rifa and Luke, and Sarion also knew about the plan.

　I mean, from the moment I was taken to the moment they took me to this moment, they've been playing me for a living.

　It was all about keeping the demons at bay.

　When Sarion and the others came to take me away, Luke's ultimate magic reached right up to me, which made me a little nervous, but other than that, everything else went according to plan. This was my real plan, Operation C.


　I would ride the sylph wind and fly above the soldiers' heads.

　I'll be able to see the whole army.
　The soldiers are looking at me.

"Hark!　O soldiers of Apristos! I am Hurt, the wise man of Alheim, whom you were about to attack.

　With the application of wind magic, he made sure that all the soldiers could hear him.

　An unrest spread through the soldiers.

''No matter how many times you guys attack us, we'll send you back like we did this time!　You may come at any time!

　In this world's wars, the strategy of how to fight was of course important, but even more important was how to move the soldiers around.

　Particularly in this world where there was no method of mass transportation, marching tens of thousands of troops required an enormous amount of effort.

　It took about twenty days to march from Apristos to Arheim on foot. All that time spent walking, all that fatigue, all that food wasted, it was all in vain.

　Apristos' men were sent back to square one. No, the food they consumed was rather negative, as they never returned.

　And I have the power to send them back to square one as many times as I want.


But don't forget. But don't forget that although I've transferred you this time, I can also throw you all into another world and kill you if I wanted to.

　With that said, I transitioned with Sylph to Alheim.
