I Became an Academy Attack Helicopter

112 – Interlude – Ending

– 113 –

(1) Withdrawal

Richelon, the northern port city of the Aetian Empire.

On the outskirts of the city, trenches, anti-tank guns, and anti-aircraft guns were lined up for the ultimate resistance.

A group of immortals appeared silently in the vacant lot in the dark.

The small sized soldier at the forefront strode across the vacant lot and entered the small barracks with his clunky feet.

“Are you here?”

The man wearing power armor and looking at the map saw them and raised his hand lightly.

The soldier in the front took off his helmet and shook his head to brush his long, white hair once.

Crushed dirt and dust fell.

“I’ve been there.”

Astat’s men bowed their backs to the demon king Khalad and then retreated from the barracks.

Calade also took off his helmet and made eye contact with Astat.

“How was it?”

“It was strong.”

Khalad clicked his tongue once, then looked down at the map again.

“Can we win next time we meet?”

“If you have enough support.”

Calad chuckled involuntarily, and then gently pushed Astat’s forehead with his finger.

“I’ll take you right away.”

She set aside her air force units for her, but rarely sortie in this war.

In fact, when the sighting information of Misfire came in, he set off with only his direct subordinates, so he could not do any damage.

As expected, Calad wasn’t angry or sad.

She would have been shocked to hear that she had rather caught Miss Fire.

Because I wasn’t ready enough yet.

The problem was Bartiers who appeared in the North Sea.

Evidently, until the day before this guy appeared, there had been information that he was staying in the port of the Pavis Continent in the southwest of the Easel Continent, but he moved to a place that took more than a week by sailing route in the blink of an eye.

The damage was great, but thanks to this, it was possible to almost certainly estimate Bartiers’ unique ability, which he had found roughly by searching past records.

The deceptive ability to teleport to sea or water.

There were many things to find out, such as the frequency, distance, and conditions, but it was urgent to secretly withdraw to the Easel Continent before Bartiers or Misfire attacked here.

“Then get ready to go back soon. Because I got everything I got.”

The materials, precious manastones, and research materials received from the prince of the human empire had already been transferred to the Easel Continent.

And above all, I was able to learn information about the enemy and the habits of humans.

With the help of the prince, the low-ranking demon soldiers were sent to the battlefield, so there was no big loss.

The low-level demons who were still bustling with the demon realm were not impressed no matter how much they died.

Except for a few special cases like Astat, his elite soldiers withdrew after gaining experience in the early ‘War to Win’.

It was a business that remained in many ways.

With a satisfied smile, Kallard gave the order to withdraw the army without the knowledge of the prince’s humans.

“You promised! I’ll let you take the throne!”

Kalad snorted lightly at the cry of the prince.

“Have you met any of the conditions I put forward?”

“Yeah, but where are you running away with all that material and support!”

“The placenta was used to make weapons for this war, and the rest belongs to our compatriots who have fallen on the battlefield.”

The prince opened his mouth and, unable to contain his anger, struck his desk.

After Kalade had finished speaking, the prince turned and raised his hand.

The guard, standing behind the prince, quietly pulled out a pistol from his bosom and aimed at the collard.

Just before the trigger was pulled, the escort missed the pistol.

If his whole hand fell off, everyone would have no choice but to do so.

Before the guard could scream, his throat was pierced.

When the blood blasts from behind, the prince gets up in surprise and at the same time,

Kwaduk

A sharp military bayonet was lodged in the prince’s neck.

The prince died on the spot.

Carlad, who was holding the doorknob, looked behind him and clicked his tongue.

“Fire. Wasn’t it too harsh to kill?”

A small demon girl appeared from the darkness and shook her head while capturing the great sword.

As she gestured, blood from the prince’s neck was sucked back into the body.

The prince’s body shook, and he naturally raised his upper body as if he had fallen asleep on his desk.

There were no visible wounds.

Calad nodded in admiration.

The demon called Fir made even the guards into corpse dolls and hid themselves in the dark again.

“Then please do as I said. Get out of here before it’s too late.”

Fir didn’t answer.

Every assassin must have a heavy mouth.

Carlad left the room with a satisfied expression.

(2) End of war

“Suddenly the enemies became very weak.”

“Now there’s no such thing as too much danger.”

In front of the last city under the prince’s control, the Selmeier Kingdom’s contingents all gathered.

Shane and her friends, who played an active part in the sky on the Northern Front, moving back and forth between land and sea, felt like they had grown up a lot.

The uncles of the soldiers who followed the Central Army, as well as the seniors from the other classes who came to gain experience with the demons, all gathered and watched the end of the war.

A few days ago, demons did not appear.

The weapons they were carrying were also not very noticeable, and the quality of the soldiers dropped sharply.

Especially, the enemy’s aircraft did not move around at all, and there were no runways left for the Crown Prince.

You have completely taken over the air.

“HQ. This is Seraph 1. Artillery support. Coordinates F-2-2-7-… ….”

Scans the defense line by floating to a height where the enemy’s attack cannot reach.

And if you call the coordinates of an anti-aircraft weapon that could be a threat, the bombardment will come after a while.

Wheeik- Kwakwang!

An anti-aircraft gun zone disappeared with the sound of the ground.

The enemy’s defense lines were cleared one after another by the finishing attack at dawn.

Once a helicopter unit appeared, anti-tank guns and artillery disappeared.

The soldiers who ran away did not dare pursue them.

They were human, so the Crown Prince will take care of it.

The deterrence line, which spanned several kilometers, disappeared within two days.

It was in early February, two months after the start of the war, that the white flag was hung over the city hall.

It is said that a prince found in a nobleman’s mansion was imprisoned in a prison after acting bizarrely out of his mind.

Finally, the imperial civil war surrounding the throne has come to an end.

(3) Home

“You did a great job!”

The man, who will now ascend to the throne, has finished his speech to the people of the Empire and gathered military officials in a large auditorium.

It was a place for the Crown Prince to express his gratitude to high-ranking officers and foreign troops.

It was my turn and I stood in front of the Crown Prince.

“It’s embarrassing to just talk about the numerous performances of the helicopter units. What do you need?”

“I want to go home and rest soon.”

The Crown Prince burst out laughing and extended his hand to me.

“You did a great job. Sooner or later, I will reward Selmeier a great deal. Please pass it on to the king.”

“I see.”

He shook his hand and stepped aside.

The next person came out and left the auditorium while listening to the crown prince’s congratulations.

Finally returning home.

The return trip was, of course, by helicopter.

If I drove her body, Cermia had to drive her helicopter alone, so I put her body and rode her helicopter with her.

The journey from this place, a little east of the northernmost point of the continent, across the Empire, through the Holy Kingdom, and back to Selmeier was not short.

“Would you like to practice flying in formation on the way?”

“You did a great job in practice.”

“Sheesh.”

Cermia sometimes over-prioritizes her efficiency. Because she doesn’t know romance.

After all, I was naturally in a formation flight.

Dozens of helicopters went across the empire at once.

The scars of war remained intact in the Empire.

The vast meadow was full of crushed and dirty snow.

Smoke was still rising everywhere.

We don’t know when this will happen in Korea.

You should always pay attention to the trends of the demons.

It took almost three days, including supply and rest, as the flight was almost at the level of crossing a continent.

After breaking up with Ireana in the Holy Kingdom in the middle, we headed straight for Selmeyer.

My friends were anxious to go home as soon as possible.

Me too.

When Selmeier’s land was finally seen, cheers were heard from the communicators.

I returned home.

(4) Report

I wanted to relax after returning home, but there was no rest at all.

As the representative, I reported the results of the dispatch to the king and the military headquarters, and as soon as I stopped by my house and greeted my family, I entered the 2nd Corps headquarters of Curst, who was in charge of dispatching the troops.

A glance at the prepared report showed that the Crown Prince was worthy of praise.

What is the officially confirmed number of defeats?

Transport helicopters were also active enough to be considered essential, and there were no fatalities.

One helicopter crashed, but the pilots were able to survive thanks to the protection magic built into the latest suit.

The people who were injured are soldiers, not students.

I’ll have to tell the king so that they can be compensated enough.

“I will take you to the royal palace.”

“Please.”

I put on a military uniform, tied my hair together, and got on an official vehicle.

After a few months, the palace was quiet as always.

The scenery you see when you enter the reception room where the king is said to be and knock on it is,

“hahahaha! What did I say! You won the war, your goods sold well, and you got a lot of money!”

“That’s right, Your Majesty. Come on, have another drink.”

“… ….”

He was the king of Selmeyer and the pope of the Holy Kingdom, who had been drinking alcohol since broad daylight without knowing that I had come.

Grabbing my stinging forehead, I started to think about what to do first for a quick report.

In the end, the spirits with the properties of water were forced to dwell in the wine in the bottle, and the two old men drank cold water.

It was a spectacle that my subordinate, an intermediate wind spirit (currently water attribute), who came out soaking in the bottle, was drunk and groaning.

“Oh? Welcome, Erif-sama.”

The two turned their heads in embarrassment when I shot without a word.

“What else is happening here?”

“Now that the work has been successfully completed, it is not unusual to have a toast with a co-worker.”

“… ….”

Looking at him as if pathetic, the pope cleared his neck and made a serious expression.

“Erif. It is said that the demons established a state on the Easel Continent.”

“Yes?”

Did the demons establish a state in the material world?

Besides, the easel continent.

How can I…….

“Ah.”

I couldn’t figure out how they made the country, but only then did I find out why the demons appeared in hordes from the north.

It would be natural to attack a nearby place from an already established position.

In other words, it was said that the prince did not summon demons as a token of the demon, but was engaged in a battle for the throne with the demons of the Ezel Continent.

Then the sudden disappearance of the demons was due to the withdrawal of the army?

It was a similar situation to before the Shinma War in the past.

There may be another war where demons settle down on the Easel Continent, and tribes living in other continents unite to defeat the demons.

The Second Shinma War.

Strength entered into the clenched fist.

Until then, I hope I can regain all the power of the past.

And while we may not be able to save everyone, we hope we can save as many as possible.
