Chapter 78: Classmates Battle 2nd Battalion, East Warm’s, Keine’s canyon.

“As expected that is disgusting.”

Sayuri Kotouge muttered that seeing a big chimera push into the Warm’s Kingdom’s army which had power increased by 1000 times from King Masatsugu.

Kotouge is a classmate deployed to the Keine’s canyon.

She is Ojou-sama with a splendid bow skill along with 5 other classmates to scatter the approaching monsters.

While back, they were able to successfully hold down the monsters to an extent by fire arrows and falling rocks when they were passing the narrow canyon from the front. Until now that is.

The monsters have the advantage in numbers, but when fighting in such a narrow passage that advantage is being offset.

There was a reason as to why Masatsugu ordered a forced march.

As she thought, that man might be an upstart he has the traits of a natural leader.

Kotouge is an ojou-sama after all.

That’s why she was always for a suitable partner to continue the family in corner of her head.

That is noblesse oblige.

In the previous world, she thought of him as a man with bad eyes, but in this extreme situation he was able to demonstrate the importance of power.

The originality of that power is talent.

Is that Naomi-kun giving out commands to every direction even now?

While Kotouge was thinking that she got called by her aide Yorimichi Nanami.

“There’s no time for standing still. If you’re the commander you should quickly give orders.”

Yorimichi is a small girl but very quick-witted.

A mysterious girl that was aloof everywhere.

Kotouge was pleased with that. She was getting exhilarating feelings from the girl who was paying no attention even if she was a ojou-sama. Probably she’s an M.

“I understand. Then I have a proposal to present to my aide.”

She’s going to ask for something unreasonable.

No, that’s not it. Conversation likes were normal for both of them.

Kotouge has a plan. But, Yorimichi is also the type to think of some ideas.

Simply, both of them are bright.

Their results vary like heaven and hell but their essential part is same.

“I didn’t expect that you would ask for your idea in this current situation. In the deployed classmates that are here there’s noone with huge firepower skills. That’s why we can’t defeat them here.”

“It’s as you say.”

Kotouge frowned to the pessimistic words and nodded.

It’s not fun getting a correct answer.

Can’t win 《・・・・》。 She understands that 《・・・・・・》。

Because, the role that Naomi-kun demanded of them was not to defeat them.

Naturally, she understood that before she was deployed.

It’s obvious.

It’s as it was said earlier.

“Choosing to fight them in the narrow canyon and then the battle will be intensified in the main group. To stop them from fighting battles that rely on their numbers and at the same time the enemy cannot whittle down our side.”

A breakthrough is not possible.

The moment the battlefield was chosen defeating the enemy was not possible.

“Then.”

“Yes, our role is to delay the enemy. A mechanical routine, balanced fighting power, suitable recovery aid, and personnel shift system are most important.”

Both of them are in understanding. So far 50 points. There are more points that yet need to be received.

“Then, what do you suggest we do? To break the balance, the enemy has brought out a powerful force. The Warm’s Kingdom soldiers steadily retreating back.”

Looking at the canyon it was as Kotouge said the soldiers were slowly retreating from the war front.

The enemy’s chimera is rampaging at the front and pushing back Warm’s soldiers.

The other monsters from being afraid of being caught up in the chimera’s attacks were placed in the back. The Warm’s soldiers are forced to retreat.

At this rate they’ll break through the canyon and reach the Warm’s Kingdom.

“Could it be that the commander thought this situation we were in a pinch?”

Yorimichi said that looking a bit surprised.

“No, impossible.”

When she said so, Kotouge smiled back and replied while shaking her head.

“What, I’m relieved. I thought you were scatter-brained.”

“What are you spewing?”

“It’s testing people. Well, it’s fine. At any rate, that’s an opportunity. Calculating the parameters of the soldiers and monsters fighting can easily go wrong.”

Yoromichi agreed to Kotouge’s words.

“But, the current situation is plenty simple. There’s only one enemy with a bit stronger physical strength. Only one. If that huge repulsive chimera is shut down then it’ll be over. We can say goodbye to the situation of the skeletons and dead bodies moving around and where can be broken through.”

Yorimichi was applauding with a loud voice.

The aid’s work is to calculate.

It’s only natural that you would raise both your hands if the number goes from 100 to 1.

Human beings are creatures that can do anything if they break the biggest toiling work of thinking.

“Then what do you intend to do against that one parameter? Everyone is trying their best to reduce that variable, but they can’t in this situation.”

“That’s right. In this current situation it’s not a parameter but fixed number 《constant term》. Normally, you cannot change a constant to a variable. The formula is complete. That’s why…”

“That’s why a shock from outside is necessary? To construct the formula the environment has to change. The formula itself will change and the parameter will change to constant.”

Kotouge said like she understood it.

Yorimichi had an extremely surprised expression.

“You surprise me. To suddenly usurp my thunder. Is that what a commander does? I don’t want leaders in Warm’s that aren’t able to earn their subordinates trust.”

She said that bitterly.

“That’s my bad. I got heavily interested in it.”

Kotouge cleared her throat awkwardly.

“Have you thought about who’ll bring forth that environmental change?”

“That’s an important job that’s why it’s Kotouge’s turn. For what sake do you usually act important?”

“It’s somewhat irritating hearing you say that.”

She thought that she wasn’t acting particularly self-important.

Actually like this her remarks were forgiven.

She was in an important position where things that can’t be forgiven are forgiven.

Honestly speaking she was an absent-minded little girl. From her position and manners it was decided.

“There’s no time so I’ll show you. Come, Coolborne Fairy!”

She said that and her shadow began bubbling like it was boiling.

And after that a pitch black shadows emerged.

At first they molded like slimes but before long they were like small people.

With wings growing on their back they floated around Kotouge.

Their numbers were 10.

They were counterfeit fairies.

This is Kotouge’s summoning skill. She creates counterfeit fairies and they use imitated abilities of fairies.

The current role of the fairies is

“Go, my cute fairies. Bewilder the enemy hanging from behind!”

The fairies received their orders and flew off like the wind.

They went over the rampaging chimera to the enemies in the back.

And then a bit later

“Gyaai!?”

Chimera’s voice came.

It sounded more like a surprised voice than one of pain.

This strategy was basically…

“It’s being harried.”

“The effect looks like it’s tremendous?”

It’s as she said, the retreat from the front has slowly stagnated.

It cannot move forward nor move back.

That’s so. The single parameter is now fixed.

Until now it was just one-sided assault, but with the fairie’s charming one part of the enemy’s soldiers they began slashing the chimera.

In other words a ‘pincer attack’ has occured.

Monster’s are creatures too so whether the have damage or not they cannot focus forward if there’s a threat from the rear.

It blew away the previously former allies that were slashing with swords at it.

Taking the opportunity the Warm’s soldiers slashed at it and the chimera retreated to defend itself.

That was a small retreat.

But, to retake that step it will take almost twice as hard.

It’s only one. There’s no substitute. And it cannot change.

“It’s a tactical draw.”

Kotouge said that.

Yorimichi nodded to her.

“Yeah, it’s a strategic win for us. King Masatsugu will also be glad.”

They were satisfied when they looked at the balanced situation.

“It’s petty but there’s one drawback.”

She muttered something which was unlike her.

“Is that so? I’m satisfied. It’s a very beautiful formula. There’s nothing more cleaner than an immovable formula.”

Yorimichi who had displayed talent in mathematics while she was in school, she showed a smile that she usually didn’t show.
