I Became the Younger Brother of the Female Protagonist in the Novel

Kwagwagwang-!

“sh*t! Lady, you have to leave immediately!”

“How many people did you have on standby!?”

At Armain and Cain’s cries, Sophia twisted her face and immediately ordered a retreat.

At that moment, about 10 masked people started running away in a hurry.

A man who was watching the scene laughed and shouted.

“Ha ha ha ha! I was told how great they were, but it was nothing!”

Captain of Base 29, Accra.

After being released from probation from Grans, he sounded the news of victory to his subordinates.

Meanwhile, Sophia and the others ran for several kilometers, evading the church’s pursuit team.

“ha… … . ha… … . Damn, were you waiting for us to attack you?”

Cain sighed heavily as he fell to his knees.

Then Armain nodded his head slightly as if agreeing with him.

“Even your enemies aren’t fools… … . Looks like we’ve fallen into a trap. and… … You won’t be able to move recklessly for a while.”

In the direction Armain was looking at, there were four afflicted beasts sitting on the floor.

Each of them was a valuable force. But to think that four of them would become incapacitated.

Cain clicked his tongue slightly as he looked at the wounded.

Then… … .

“Come on, drink it now.”

He took out intermediate potions from his chest and threw them one by one.

“miss.”

“… … .”

At Cain’s call, Sophia looked at him in silence.

“I heard that the guy from Armaine is going to have to strengthen his powers for the time being because of this and that… … . And that guy… … He must have used the magic of the 5th circle. If you attack recklessly like this, you will be truly annihilated.”

Cain, who said he would not spare even his life for the collapse of the church.

But the reason he held back Sophia was simple.

In order to prevent the dog death of my colleagues including myself. And it was for Sophia, who provided a chance for revenge.

“… … .”

Sophia frowned at Cain’s report for a moment.

No matter how powerful Elaim’s elemental magic was, the opponent had two 5th circle wizards and many 4th circle wizards.

If they surrounded them on all sides, even Sophia would have no choice but to show a momentary gap.

That’s why when dealing with many talented people, the help of allies was desperate.

but… … .

‘It wasn’t just the black magicians. If you have even placed sword master level swordsmen… … .’

A situation that cannot be overcome blindly.

Even the barrier stone was spread out at the enemy’s stronghold.

As if they were preparing for an attack.

‘… … Is there no choice but to attack another base?’

The moment Sofia touched her chin for a moment, Elim sat down on her shoulder.

– How about getting support from the organization that Keynes created? I told you last time that we secured more than 50 people.

‘but… … .’

– Well, you don’t think there’s anything wrong with it? After all, their goal is to destroy the church.

The previous Sophia had the idea of attacking the leader first in order to destroy the church.

So, based on the information obtained from each research center and base, I tried to identify the location of the leader. As a result, the location of the church’s headquarters could not be identified.

I tried to capture and interrogate high-ranking officials such as the head of the base and the head of the research center, but… … .

Was it because of the mana contract? The moment they were about to spit out the confidential information, they struggled and foamed and died.

This means that there is no way to practically determine the location of the church headquarters.

For now, we have no choice but to secure more information by destroying bases and research centers.

“Even Kenneth might not be able to take out the power without permission… … .”

– You can find out about that by asking yourself. And don’t think you’ll be a burden to him. An organization called Darkness was created to destroy the Death Parade Church. If so, think about attacking the enemy with all the resources of the organization first.

“… … Yes, you are right.”

Sophia, who agreed to Elaim’s persuasion, sent a call to Kaynes as soon as midnight.

He was just about to visit the auction house, and he readily nodded at Sophia’s request for support.

-Yes, I’ll hurry up and send it.

The 2nd Headquarters of Darkness founded by Keynes. And the 1st and 3rd teams belonging to the 2nd Headquarters were dispatched as support units.

For reference, the first headquarters is a term referring to the temporary base Sophia prepared for her activities.

Even though Sophia, who became the head of Darkness, had to make an awkward expression at the grandiose word headquarters.

“… … Now that that’s the case, return to the base and reorganize until reinforcements arrive.”

At Sophia’s instruction, the members of the First Headquarters nodded and immediately began preparing to return to the base.

“… … Was our organization considerably larger than I thought?”

“If our base is the 1st Headquarters, it must mean that the 2nd Headquarters is inferior to us. But if the reinforcements went through the same experience as we did… … It will be a great power.”

While talking in low voices, the crew immediately moved to the temporary base called the 1st Headquarters.

And just three days later, the support unit arrived at the first headquarters.

The support unit of the 2nd Headquarters, who visited villages midway through and switched horses and moved south at high speed.

The members of the 1st Headquarters fired small projectiles while watching them.

“Those guys… … Reinforcements dispatched from Headquarters 2?”

The moment the members of the 2nd Headquarters removed the cloaks that hid their bodies, black uniforms appeared.

And they also had a different appearance from the human race.

Did you feel a foreign energy from them? The members of Headquarters 1 were immediately convinced. That means they were also victims of the church.

“nice to see you. My name is Syriana, the leader of Team 1 of Darkness 2nd Headquarters. I’ve heard Sophia’s story from Master before.”

“My name is Wesley, the 3rd Team Leader of the 2nd Headquarters.”

“… … Yes, thank you for coming to support.”

“no. If it’s to destroy the church… … . But here… … Is this the first headquarters of Darkness?”

Syriana rolled her eyes and looked around.

The building now called Headquarters 1 is an old abandoned building that was used as a warehouse in the past. The floor was pretty clean, as if cleaning was done from time to time, but the building itself was old and dirty in many ways.

Sophia smiled bitterly at the sight of Syriana rolling her eyes.

“It’s not even a grandiose place called headquarters. I’m just using it as a place to work in secret. There are quite a few monsters living in the forest around here, so people are rare.”

“… … okay.”

It is said that only a handful of animals lived in the forest around the warehouse building until several decades ago. However, due to the sudden migration of demons, the warehouse building was abandoned.

And Sophia filled the interior by purchasing only furniture and daily necessities.

‘No matter how sparse the surrounding environment is, it would be better to have at least some security equipment… … . Or did they deliberately not install security facilities so that they could leave at any time?’

Syriana showed a small question, but she didn’t bother to say it out of her mouth.

For about 20 to 30 seconds, a small sense of desolation passed between the members of the 1st Headquarters and the 2nd Headquarters.

Syriana, who watched this, let out a small sigh and asked Sophia about her future plans.

“… … First, I plan to attack the church’s stronghold located in the Lorne Mountains. Currently, the strength of the enemies identified is two 5th circle mages, five 4th circle mages, and six to seven sword master level swordsmen. Besides that, I had dozens of combatants on standby.”

“Pretty… … That’s a lot. I heard that there are even barrier stones in the enemy camp… … .”

When Syriana paused, Sophia nodded once.

“… … In terms of power, I can’t arbitrarily guarantee victory or defeat.”

22 members dispatched from the 2nd Headquarters. Fifteen of them were top experts or warlocks of the 3rd circle, and 5 others were low-level sword masters and warlocks of the 4th circle. And the remaining two are Syriana, a 5th circle warlock, and Wesley, an intermediate sword master.

In terms of power, it is on the same level as the church side.

but… … .

“If Sophia-sama is with us, we should be able to gain the upper hand.”

Elemental magic comparable to the 6th circle.

If Sophia’s ability is together, the odds will rise rapidly.

“More than that, I heard that you were surrounded by them in the previous battle. Can you tell me where it is?”

“Southeast of the mountain range… … This is the area.”

Sophia circled one side of the map with her finger.

“… … Hmmm, there are definitely cliffs in the west and north, so the only route you can climb is around that area.”

“First of all, my idea is to attack with a group of five so as not to be trapped in the enemy’s encirclement… … .”

“then… … .”

As Syriana began to devise a detailed plan, Armain, who had been standing quietly by Sophia’s side, took part in the plan meeting and elaborated on the details.

and… … The day of the joint operation of the 1st and 2nd headquarters.

Tuquaaang-!

“Aagh! my, my arm… … !”

Base 29 became a mess in just 30 minutes.

“What the hell is this… … . Why, why are there so many enemies?!”

Captain of Base 29, Accra. He was intoxicated by his victory a few days ago and took lightly the strength of Darkness. The defense measures at Base 29 were really close to perfect.

In fact, even if a large army of tens of thousands came, Accra was confident that it would defend it.

but… … .

Awesome!

“Cheuk… … !”

Unlike a few days ago, Darkness’ power had tripled.

It’s not just numbers.

In addition to the 5th circle warlocks, sword master level swordsmen.

“This, this nonsense… … !”

To Accra’s voice of disbelief, someone answered with a soft voice.

“Where’s the nonsense?”

“Your boy… … .”

“I’m glad it’s been a while, but… … . just die.”

Sophia, the woman in the Hundred Demon Mask, created a huge blade of water using spiritism.

As if to counterattack, Accra exploded black flames, but… … .

Awesome!

“I-I can’t… … .”

A blue blade pierced his neck.

Took-

Head rolling on the floor.

His death greatly contributed to the morale of the church members.

“Dae, Captain… … !”

“Ugh, aaagh! Run away!”

Church members who have fallen into panic.

On the other hand, Darkness, who rode the flow, began to chase after them and slaughter them, and as a result… … The 29th base of the Death Parade was captured with 12 casualties.

* * *

Quaang!

“What nonsense is this!”

Upon receiving the report that Base 29 had been destroyed by Darkness, Grans was greatly indignant.

As a Warlock of the 5th Circle, Accra is revered as the highest ranking official in the Church. He was a problem child who caused a lot of accidents in many ways, but even so, Grans recognized that skill.

-… … Currently, Base 29 is in ruins, and contact with Accra is cut off. I guess… … .

At the continued report, Grans clenched her fists tightly.

“damn… … . Did I underestimate them too much?”

Two 5th Circle Warlocks and five 4th Circle Warlocks. And eight of the lowest sword master level swordsmen, and three barrier stones that are said to be impervious to 4th circle magic.

If that didn’t stop Darkness… … .

In addition, the 3rd circle warlock and 170 high-level to top-level expert swordsmen must have been guarding the 29th base.

“… … It’s a story that we need to raise the alert level higher than it is now, and strengthen the strength of the bases and research centers located within the Labadian Empire by several times.”

-To the teacher… … .

“I will report separately. You guys continue to investigate the traces of Darkness.”

-All right.

When the flow of mana was cut off, the communication sphere immediately lost its light.

Then, with her eyes tightly closed, Grans tapped the desk with her index finger.

The purpose of the church is now right around the corner.

however… … Come now, what kind of lightning is this!

From noble mtl dot com

“It’s not long before this Labadian Empire is in my hands… … .”

Grans let out a sigh of deepening anxiety and leaned against the back of the chair.

Chapter 87

87. To the Spey One family (2)

After the 29th base of the Death Parade was captured, several months passed before I knew it.

As the festival at the academy came to an end, the second semester was about to come to an end.

I passed the first year written test and practical evaluation safely with perfect scores, but I received perfect scores in all tests throughout the first and second semesters.

Ardeal approached me applauding.

“As expected, Keynes-kun is amazing.”

The word ‘yes’ is a bit off-putting, but… … .
