Battle Race in Romance Fantasy

199 – I’m going to meet you now

The east is different from the kingdom alliance in the west, where you need to capture the main base, or the independent lords in the south, who need to take the key island for passage.

Where the tribes are, where the horses and sheep are raised, is their territory.

And the territory is not fixed. Always move along the grass to feed.

Because of this, the concept of territory is not clear to the nomadic tribes in the east.

That’s why the empire didn’t have much attraction to the east.

Even if you want to occupy it or subdue it, it is very difficult to do so.

All of the tribes are wild and warlike, and it is impossible to capture a city that would demoralize them.

First of all, the land is large, but it is not a very good environment for growing the most important crops.

It is not good to simply expand the territory. There has to be something productive.

Only then, the blood and lives shed to occupy the place will not be in vain.

“I didn’t expect to put a regular army in here.”

Duke Schrelitz climbs on a horse and examines the wide plain.

From the point of view of the Empire, this war is not particularly welcome.

It’s different from the western kingdom alliance, and the southern islands that are sure to get.

In slang words, it is a business that loses money. It’s just to take care of your ego.

“Considering that the Eken tribe showed low attitude because they knew there was nothing to gain from colliding with us, the Chaga tribe who called Gahan this time is not insane.”

“I don’t know what the hell you’re thinking. Doing this when there is not much to gain….”

As the Archduke clicked his tongue, Kyle, who had been waiting quietly next to him, opened his mouth.

“It’s not something like that, it could be something like that because you suddenly have power.”

“Because you have power?”

“Isn’t that what being human is originally? If it’s strong, I want to wield that power around me. And when people around him get scared and bow their heads, he pretends to be something great. After all, wouldn’t it be a big accident?”

Typically, it can be said that the bullies in the neighborhood are like that.

I don’t know the level of myself, so I’m going to have a good time, but someday the day will come.

“The princess and the other 10 rivers?”

“They say it will arrive soon. First, the 5th Princess, Sir Logan, Sir Throde, and Sir Erich and Sir Gunther are coming. I have been told that the rest will come back in binary.”

At the adjutant’s words, the grand duke muttered.

6 Out of 10, which can be said to be the best military force in the empire, will gather in the east.

After that, three out of the remaining four are on standby.

As much as that, the will of the imperial family to clear the east was strong this time.

‘It’s only natural that I stopped the seeds of the Eken tribe, who were officially titled by the empire. He felt that Cha could never reconcile with the tribe or with the person who called Gahan.’

The legendary existence passed down among the nomadic tribes, Gahan.

If you use that name, it means that you made up your mind.

Break all the spears and swords of the empire and proudly become the conqueror of the East.

Or is it just a gust of wind in the eastern grasslands that briefly stood up?

The outcome of that would be decided sooner or later.

“Your Excellency the Grand Duke.”

Kyle sneaks up and calls Archduke Schrelitz.

Now that he has followed his wishes so far, he means to ask for what he wants.

At that, the Grand Duke nodded his head with an ‘Ahh’ and immediately gave the order.

“Kyle John Nassen. As the commander-in-chief of this Eastern Expedition, I issue an order. As soon as the 5th Princess arrives, you act together with her and clear the enemy’s small guerrilla unit.”

“I want to accompany Ian, who I brought with me, as an assistant. Dismissal.”

“Good. And from then on, independent actions are permitted as long as they do not collide with the Imperial Legion.”

In the top 10 of the empire, and taking the princess off the front line to move without an escort?

Some of the commanders had embarrassed faces, but they couldn’t open their mouths recklessly.

If Archduke Schrelitz, not anyone else, said that, there must be a reason.

“Your Excellency the Grand Duke. Do you have a plan to intercept the other 10 people if the poor princess draws out the enemies?”

That’s the part where you might think so.

There’s someone who defeated Rogers, so he’d better catch and get rid of him first.

In order to do that, it is only natural to throw a bait that even the strong will have no choice but to bite.

“What are you talking about? Why are you doing that?”

But when Kyle, who was standing next to him, immediately frowned, he automatically shut up.

It looked like it would tear you alive the moment you said something.

“If you catch it, the captain will crawl out. Then beat the captain, and in the end, wouldn’t that bastard come because he didn’t want to hurt his own children?”

“… That’s true, but if it were that easy….”

The archduke interrupted one of the commanders with a gesture.

It was a clear message not to talk about the matter any more.

“I look forward to your performance, Kyle. The faster and more enemy small units are captured, the faster the main unit will move.”

“That way, the enemies will become desperate and rush to the battlefield, and the war will end just as quickly.”

Kyle wants this war to end as quickly as the Archduke.

The empire’s finances, worried about human resource damage? No way. It can’t be.

More than that, the bigger thing was that other girls would light up their eyes if it was too late.

‘The princess is here, after all. Even the saintess is secretly impatient, and if she doesn’t return within a month, she’ll try to come after me for whatever reason.’

To be honest, Kyle himself was worried about that part.

Will the princess really try to overcome this situation without any hindrance?

*

As expected, I knew it would be like this. This wasn’t a joke.

Looking down at the princess who embraced him as soon as he arrived, Kyle let out a sigh.

I looked around and it was fortunate.

Aside from Ian, Archduke Schrelitz, and the same top 10, there are no other people in the position.

There seemed to be nothing embarrassing about useless rumors spreading everywhere.

Kyle let out a sigh and opened his mouth slightly.

“… What are you doing.”

I just want to push it away, but there are too many eyes.

And the opponent is the princess no matter what.

“I’m hugging you.”

“Then why all of a sudden?”

“When I see a lover, they say I have to do this.”

I want to know who I am meeting and what kind of stories I am hearing these days.

It’s like changing strangely, and it’s a burden because a girl who always goes straight just keeps going straight.

Look at it even now. The grand duke, the other 10 other colleagues, all of them are watching, but they are openly affectionate.

“Look at the rest. I’ll move in with Kyle right away.”

Then he just casually said hello and urged us to leave in a cool way.

Everyone seemed dumbfounded, but since she is a princess, she didn’t seem to be able to say anything.

“Degrading the princess. I wish you well.”

There is no saying not to get hurt. Because I know very well that this is not a walk, but a war.

Duke Schrelitz disappeared along with the other 10 members, and Kyle and the princess remained.

“… Aren’t you going?”

And it was Ian who, unfortunately, was very embarrassed to be left alone.

“Kyle. Why isn’t he going?”

“It’s not him, it’s Ian.”

“Anyway.”

“I want to take Ian along to see him. If it’s not enough, you have to teach it too.”

“Ummm… I’ll admit I’m good at it, but do I really have to do it now?”

This princess is real. Do you think we’re on a date or something?

The movement of the main unit changes depending on how much we annihilate the enemies.

And if you’re lucky, catch that Sochir or something.

“Sorry. I was going to date you A date on the battlefield. Is it good?”

“Princess, please.”

“Just kidding.”

No matter how selfish he is, he won’t do such a thing before a battle.

She was the princess who poked Kyle on the shoulder while laughing as if she could not have believed it.

But the problem is, I believed him for a moment because he was such a great man.

“Are the three of us moving?”

“Yes. This should look like a simple scout. For enemies who are confident in horsemanship, it will look like a good level to snatch.”

“Hmm. But on the other hand, you could also consider it a trap, right?”

“If we know there is no one behind us, we will approach them unconditionally, even if we think it is a trap.”

I heard about the characteristics of the nomadic tribe several times from Grand Duke Shrelitz on the way.

Like wolves in the meadow, they observe their prey and bite its weaknesses tenaciously.

It was said that even a child would pick up a knife the moment he felt weak.

At that level, Kyle thought that a simple scout would definitely bite.

‘And if you don’t bite, conversely, it’s enough to go to me, the princess, and even Ian to kill the guerrillas. It’s supposed to show itself anyway.’

There is only one thing Kyle wants. Bringing out a warrior named Sochire who is said to have defeated the top 10 of the Empire.

Disintegration of guerrilla tactics? I’m not particularly interested. Imperial legion damage? Unfortunately, we are at war.

You might say it’s too much, but if you think about it, this war has nothing to do with Kyle himself.

Nevertheless, I allowed it because there was something I definitely wanted.

Wars tend to flow in an advantageous direction in the end.

A cause? Honor? In the end, everything is an excuse. You and I both fight if we want to benefit.

I’ll take what I want from there, but who can say anything?

‘Show up quickly. Please hold me in my hand They say scary people will come if you wait.’

By now, he must have received a letter carefully written by him.

And what follows… Well, it’s foolish to think it’s so obvious.

“Let’s go, Kyle. Gotta go! Hey! No, Ian? Follow me too.”

“Yes, poor princess.”

“I know I’ll get scolded if I don’t like it when I see you fighting. No matter how many times you watch it, if you haven’t grown up, you’ll be scolded.”

“That will never happen.”

Ian reacts right away, probably because his pride hasn’t completely disappeared.

It is not unfounded confidence. If Ian is now, he can deal with quite a few nomadic tribal warriors with one hand.

Then, what happens if you fight that warrior named Sochir? Why are you worried about that

Ian wouldn’t even have a chance to stick with him anyway.

‘That guy is mine. Can’t yield cancer!’
