The day after I took control of the land north of Tateyama Fort.

　My distrust of me increased, but the Demon King Motoki had no way to break through, and we were to launch a simultaneous invasion just like the other day.

　And so, we continue the same travesty again.

　The fifth day, which seemed to have returned to a stagnant and boring routine.

　17:30.
　Like one of the idiots, Demon King Motoki started the invasion of the Tateyama Fort.

　18:00.
　The troops led by Iain, Chloe, and Leila start invading Nanto Fort to unfold the farce.

　Same time.
　From the dominant territory north of the newly-controlled Tateyama Fort, I began my march with my men.

"In accordance with the agreement, we, the Astor Empire - we will begin our invasion of Fort Tateyama!

　I made a loud declaration from the north and launched a surprise attack against the human beings of the Tateyama Fortress, which was defending itself against the forces of the Demon King Motoki invading from the east.

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

　--The only time we can take them by surprise is tonight!　Yikes!　Yikes!　Yikes!　Let's get inside!　You've got to gain experience!

　Facing the Demon King Motoki's camp, he charged into the side of the humanity camp that was performing a farce.

''Whoa!　Let's go!　You guys!

　The Takahar unit takes the lead.

　Takahar turned into the Beast King from the start, leading the highly mobile Werewolves to attack humanity like a beast.

"Wha-what's going on?
Enemy attack!　Theon's forces to the north are attacking from the........
Oh, come on...

　

''Takach!　You'll have to be careful not to duck!　Like a weather report for you?　Flaming arrows falling from the skies above humanity!　--Fire Arrow!

　Sarah's troops rain down arrows of fire on humanity.

''---ha!　Look out!　You stupid elf!
Pieng. I warned you!

　Although she complains with her mouth, Sarah is raining fire arrows into the back to keep Takahar's troops out of it. The exchange looks like a hoot, but the coordination between the two of them was perfect.

''Master father!　Us!　We can't afford to fall any further behind!
I know what to do, Cu. Brothers and sisters, let's go!

　Hastened by the deviating Kufrin, Kotetsu's troops, followed by Takaharu's unit, launch a strong attack.

　Magic rain pours down. Takahar's troops are rampaging in the middle of the human camp. And then the Kotez unit launches a new assault.

　The human race in Tateyama, immersed in the lukewarm atmosphere of this farce, is in a state of panic.

'I didn't expect things to go so well.... Lina, Hibiki, Saburo!　All troops, attack!　Ravage the humanity of Tateyama!

　All the troops were ordered to charge, and I myself was to charge in search of experience.


　　◆


　It has been 30 minutes since they began their invasion of Tateyama Fort.

　The Demon King Motoki's forces, who have finally managed to swallow the situation, make their move.

''Kuh........again.......?　Keep going!　Go on!　We, too, will follow Theon's attack!

　A group of elves led by the Demon King Motoki launched a chase after the human race, which had been taken by surprise and turned into a no-man's land.

　The battlefield where the three camps intersected became even more chaotic.

　It has been three hours since they began their invasion of the Tateyama Fort.

　Normally the farce would be over and the two sides would have pulled out long ago, but the battle was still going on.

'Reinforcements!　We've got reinforcements from Toyama City!

　The reinforcements from Toyama City arrive. The human camp begins to buzz.

"Theon, what do you think?

　Lina comes close and asks for a course of action.

　--Tell all hands!　Do not move from your position and continue the fight!　I forbid you to push the front line any further!

"Lina's troops will destroy the enemy in the line of fire so that the front line - the Tacahar's troops - can retreat at any time.
Yes, sir!

　Upon receiving the order, Lina moved quickly into action.

'Sabraw!　Come with me!
Yes, sir!

　I move with Saburou near the front line to clear the dew so that Demon King Motoki's troops can march more easily to Tateyama Fort.

　Reinforcements arrive, and humanity's morale rises.

　However, the battlefield is becoming more and more horrific as we show our readiness to fight back thoroughly.

　It's been an hour since the reinforcements from Toyama City arrived.

　The Demon King Motoki's army is advancing deeper and deeper into the woods as if I were leading them.

"Tonight is the night to decide...!　All of you!　Give it all you've got!

　The Demon King Motoki's drumming is feverish.

　If it's settled tonight--wouldn't it be a problem?

　It's about time.

　We could leave at this point, but we're tired. Let's raise the morale of the human race.

　--Attention all hands!　We'll begin our retreat in five minutes!　Prepare to withdraw, gentlemen!

　I'll tell my men to prepare for withdrawal.

　--Subtlety gives the signal to retreat!　All hands, pull back quickly and quietly!

　Five minutes later.

　--Come closer, Saburo. And shout the words I tell you to say.

　I telepathically tell Sablow that he can't hear me.

　When Saburo nods and comes to stand next to me--

'Noooooooooooo!　Master Theon!　Master Theon is wounded!　We're retreating!　All hands are to retreat!

　Saburo exaggeratedly shouts aloud the words I delivered.

　--All hands, retreat.

'Thirteen deadly stars, Theon is injured!
'Now's your chance!　Clean up those demons!

""Oh!"

　The news of my injury boosts the morale of the human race.

　They launched a counterattack, but we, who had finished preparing to retreat, hurriedly withdrew from the scene.

　The pigs left behind - Demon King Motoki's army is left behind in the midst of humanity's rising morale.
