Looking at the light spots marked on the map, Isle saw that the situation was generally improving. It was especially significant that he was able to suppress Ars with Orneus alone. It was more than he had expected.

　They hadn't expected to be able to cross each other as equals.
　On the other hand, Silsila on the other hand seems to be having a hard time. She didn't think that there were enough people to stop her from giving her a special soldier called a Knight 《Knight》.
　However, it is standard practice and a minimum requirement that the troops assigned to the special forces should be those who are high in strength. If it's this level, it's hard to call it a big miscalculation.

　As expected, it's not a simple matter. Even though Isle was wary of Ars, which bears the title of the strongest, he completely looked down on Tesfia.
　No matter what measures you take, if you claw your way around the battlefield, in the end, only the qualities of the role of king will be tested. To Ail, who has known her since her childhood, her thoughts are one piece less than the opponents she has defeated so far. It could even be said that it was rather palpable.

　A battle on a field that couldn't even be called a match from the start. If the odds of victory were about 50%, the method of nobleman's ruling (tenbram) would not have been taken for the prudent Ayre.
　It's because he judged that the victory was unassailable, taking various factors into account, regardless of whether or not Ars joins him, that he made this offer.

　And the product to the winner is first class. There's no need to weigh it in the balance.

　But no matter what kind of match it was, Isle did not fail to sense the subtleties of the battle situation and respond immediately.
　That's why it was Silsilaside's battlefield that was worth noting.

　Because of the location, it is impossible to grasp the kind of situation from the Isle. I look at the map and anticipate a number of developments in my brain.

　From the movement of the map, Orneus is following Ars exactly. I can only guess from here, but he's probably playing his opponent completely.
　Ars is a move of escape.

　That's why Ars can't go straight ahead and intends to join the battle with Silsila and his fellow archers 《Archer》.
　It was perhaps a painful plan to keep the infantry away. The battle between infantry was a defeat for the Tesfia camp. At that rate, it was only a matter of time before they were defeated.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on. It's a good thing that you've got a good idea of what you're doing.
　Maybe that's because I'm not talented enough to be a magician. The reality is that Isle did not know. I'm sure you'll be able to see that the human race is now overrun by demons if wizards only dealt with magic.

　In short, he was not familiar with what those who fight on the front lines as magicians were like.

　He may have underestimated that they must also have at least the ingenuity to use magic and the physical ability to make accurate decisions.

'Fear's order count is zero, and it's getting to be a form of biding time. I guess things are finally getting out of hand.''

　If you don't interpret the orders or give the correct instructions, you may have to do it twice, and you may have to give orders twice when you could have done it once.
　As a result, it creates a situation where the number of orders is cut off.

　On the other hand, Aile, on the other hand, always had three to five orders left over. That's why there is a margin of safety. He was able to scrutinize the situation calmly.

''Is Silsila in a stalemate, or will joining up with Orneus be to our advantage?

　The question to ask yourself is assumed through the illusion of a war situation that can only be anticipated.

''........No, I don't know, I guess. The existence of the archers 《Archer》 is too uncertain. If he's stopping Silsila, he must be a pretty good user, but the infantry is completely outnumbered by us.

　If you think about it naturally, you stepped out of the warrior 《Warrior》 in the battle with Orneus. Ars's actions were, in all likelihood, a breakthrough in the situation.
　In other words, it means the war situation is against Ars. It's a plan that's close to one or two. A spur-of-the-moment thought, that was probably the only way to break the deadlock.

　But the opponent is a man who is touted as the strongest and is also a renowned researcher.

''This is too unnatural. All the soldiers were mapped in the engagement between Orneus and Ars. That being the case, there's no way he can't see the superiority of the infantry against the infantry engagement, right? That's why he broke in........

　Ars interrupted the melee with a clash of an equal number of infantry, which had already rendered three of them incapable of fighting. No, it was the fourth one, said Isle, looking at the light spot on the map. In contrast, the damage to his own camp was one infantry.

　So Ail lifted the corner of his mouth. He was already struggling to read Ars's thoughts instead of Tesfia's thoughts. His opponent was definitely Ars.

　To call it a comparison of wits would be an exaggeration. But even so, it was natural for Ayrton to be enthusiastic about winning after reading what kind of strategy Ars would use in this predicament.

　If he were Ars, what kind of strategy would he put in place to win? He had several assumptions about what moves would have the best chance of winning. Among them, the actions he took were outside the scope of his expectations for Ail.
　The only reason he was able to come to that thought was because of Ars's actions, as he thought that cheating would be unavoidable in order to win.

　If the war situation up to this point was something he had deliberately constructed.

I'm impressed. "I have to admit, I didn't think that much about it, either. I mean, it's not possible, and I won't do it. Yeah, it's beautiful, even.

　Isle was filled with respect as well as the elation he'd discovered.
　All the incomprehensible is now a point. I see why, for some reason, it's an action that Ail would never take even if he were in the other side's position. But I have the feeling that this is the way to go after being done.

　The feeling is there. It's really just a coincidence that he noticed it, although he did notice it. Normally, he could say that he would never have noticed it.
　But still, he couldn't overlook this one. An anomaly that could never be overlooked.

'Fear, I'm so glad you're the king. It's not the quality of the troops, but ultimately the king's resourcefulness, quick decisions, and how far he can read the thoughts of his opponents. After all, you are easy to control.

　It's a foolish move that is too easy, as if she's hoping for a victory for the Isle. No, it's also a mistake that might be unavoidable if it's the first time she's going to perform a ten-brum.

　The Tesfia infantry were chasing behind Ars and the others. No, to be precise, one infantryman had slipped through the gap that had been created between the two of them as they moved away from the area where the infantry had gathered.
　I've been keeping track of the number of times Tesfia's orders have been given. It's a situation where we are already waiting for the number of times to be added. And the order was added at exactly 30 seconds. Yes, he must have given the order to the infantryman who had slipped away.

　A chicanery that would certainly have succeeded if she had been more familiar with Tembram.

'You go out of your way to give orders, don't you? And impatient, you're impatient....

　It was a common mistake. The timing of the order to move was clearly earlier than the order. This is a foul because he moved before the order, but the jury's decision is a sideline.
　In other words, a piece that can move without giving an order.
　Isle didn't consider the infantry "pawn" that comes through on the board to be an infantry "pawn". That is exactly the strategy that would be considered respectful.

　Yes, the knight is able to act without any limitations. The knight is an absolutely superior piece of equipment that can be used to defeat the king. It is even said that not choosing it is an advantage in itself. That's how useful and important this special soldier is.

　Of course, it's the same for Ail, and Silsila has become a "knight".

　Ars's strategy was to create a separate Knight 《Knight》. This is because the strongest person who can move the most is the knight.
　In fact, Isle believed that Ars is a knight, or else he would not be able to win.

　But in order to disguise Ars's actions as a "knight", Tesfia must have used every single order to Ars. He produced the pretense of being able to act on his own judgment, which is a characteristic of a knight 《Knight》. That's why the number of orders he had initially saved up ended up being significantly consumed.

''In other words, Mister Ars-dono is an infantry pawn.......So the knight was mixed in with the infantry from the start?

　I guess that's what I call taking my hat off. I can't feel like I won honestly because I was completely blinded by the strategy.
　If this strategy was alive, Tesfia had won. If it was a knight who was able to respond flexibly in the field, they might have been able to pull out of the base for the sake of the number of orders. That's why, while feeling indignant, Ayre spun the order mercilessly.

　Her blunders caused everything to go down the drain. As a result, Ail was saved.
　But a game is a game.

Orneus, he's an infantryman. "Orneus, he's an infantryman. The Warrior will fall back and crush the enemy, the Knight, as soon as he escapes!

　Immediately, the reaction of Orneus, who had been following Ars, turned at a right angle and headed towards the mapped Tesfia Knight, Knight of Tesfia.
　And Isle, who had been calculating the time, saw the Tesfia's order come down after a delay.

　Ars had no choice but to go straight ahead when the order didn't come down despite being aware of Orneus' movement.
　Folding in at once, thoroughly.

'I knew it. Lord Arus is definitely an infantryman.''

　Keep the infantry at a certain distance and retreat diagonally across the street. In this way, even if Tesfia's infantry were to come toward us, we could still deal with them. Besides, even if the knight <> escaped, it would still be able to cut off their retreat route. It's only because of Orneus' speed that it's easy to deal with. However, if they realized it was too late, it would have been too late.

　If this happens, it's all over. The victory or defeat has been decided.

　Probably it was a match of numbers to be chosen as a knight. Otherwise, Isle would have already lost. I knew from the preliminary investigation that the Fevers were desperate to match the numbers. As expected, up to the archers 《Archer》 was unexpected, though.

　Orneus wouldn't lose at first. With the lack of the Knight 《Knight》, there would be nothing more Tesfia could do.
　No, the problem is that when this happens, Ars is an infantryman. On top of that, his command count is zero.
　Thirty seconds pass, and the command count is immediately consumed. Arus chases after Orneus after a considerable delay, as if in tandem.

　It's all too late, and even if Arus were to chase him now, Orneus' speed is enough to kill him instantly.
　If Ars turned out to be an infantryman, due to the limit on the number of orders, Orneus didn't have to be foolishly honest with him.

　Thirty seconds again.
　Instantly consumed.

''No use, you can't save this knight anymore, no matter what you do. It's no good if you don't understand that and wastefully consume it.

　However, it is clear that the situation is not one that can be rebuilt now.
　The Tesfia must protect the Knight at all costs. No, it's a more fundamental problem. As soon as it was noticed, it could be said that the victory or defeat was already decided.

　In fact, Ars was chasing Orneus at full speed. It was an astounding speed that seemed to upset the game of tenbram.
　It's suddenly hard to believe that this is due to physical ability.

(After all, you are dangerous. That's why it's a shame. There is no chance for Wurmulina to get that power, and you are captured as the mastermind of a terrorist act. (And that's all because of your support for Fia and all that.)

　How much could it be worth to Tesfia? That was the only thing I couldn't believe. I couldn't even think of a man as good as him having trouble with women. That was why I didn't understand it even more.
　Knowing her childhood and reuniting with her at the academy was still the same as it was in the old days when she hadn't grown up any more than Isle had expected.

　A lack of self-control to let her emotions take precedence. He's a good puppet, and his bloodline is perfect. But that's about all that can be said, and that's the extent of the value that Isle can find in her.

　Of course, it's because of that that I was able to pick up a win like this, so perhaps I should be grateful.

　It took a long time, but it's a staggering end to a stupefying affair.
　Orneus's reaction coincided with a prominent knight 《Knight》, and the light indicating it disappeared. Now the knight is unable to fight.

　The only thing left to do is to clean up. I'll let them attack all the infantry as well. Orneus would be good to have him take care of Arus just in case.
　Even if we don't have to fight, it will take time for Arus to track down the Isle with his infantry. In the meantime, we can search for him with all our forces. This is because the Tesfia's base of operations has been narrowed down.

　How many more moves will it take to jam it up, Ayl makes a rough calculation in his brain. The current order count is back to five again. In addition to that, Tesfia........

'0!

　It looks like a waste of time and a waste of bad footwork, as I thought he would have given up as expected. In terms of time, it had been over a little less than four minutes since he had sent Orneus towards him. That meant seven additional order times.
　All the while, the knight tried to escape, and Tesfia needed to give the instruction that he was surrounded. So one is spent.
　It also takes one order to make Ars chase him. And when the Isle's infantry see the siege laid down, Tesfia also orders all the soldiers to rescue or break the siege.
　Even Silsila side's long-range magic should have consumed the order. Silsila was forced to gradually retreat, so I see that the orders were given.

　There were 10 seconds left until the new command count was added. Up to this point, the two of them would have been given seven times the number of orders.

　But..........

'What happened to the one more time.......which piece did you move!
