94 – Devils wear nice clothes (4)

“So what’s your next plan?”

“assassination.”

Rena shrugged at the familiar operation name. The hero was resolutely handing over the papers in the shaking wagon.

“Commander Stauffen is pushing the front line forward this time and is encamping in the forward area. It’s not a front line at all, but rather, it’s a good loophole for us to turn around and attack.”

The warrior’s hand pointed to the map. Follow the warrior’s finger, turn diagonally upwards from this front area where Kayberes is, and go straight up to the barracks where Commander Stauffen is located. Lena rubbed her chin and said.

“It’s a bit of a risk. this time. Enemy camps are everywhere. Because the surrounding terrain is also majestic, it is distorted and it is difficult to go while taking cover.”

As they moved toward the center of the empire, the terrain heavily influenced by demonic forces was distorted, showing a different appearance from the map. The ground revealed grotesque bumps that even those familiar with the geography of the empire were confused about, and as the bony demonic plants became the main focus, it was difficult to take advantage of the strengths of the few elites.

Moreover, it was ‘relatively’ forward, but the position of Stauffen was still tricky. It was because I had to enter at least two camps of demons without being caught.

The hero knows this problem, but he said it with an expression that couldn’t be helped.

“He is such a difficult opponent. The situation is very bad because he keeps going behind the scenes, trying to appease our commanders, and also trying to assassinate him. The royal palace thinks that when the commander comes forward like this, we have to deal with it with certainty.”

“….what. It’s not once or twice that I’m on a dangerous mission.”

Lena had a worried face, but eventually nodded.

Ashuria said.

“If you tell Kayberes about the weakness, the story will be easier. No matter how strong a being is, there is a weakness. If you can handle it quickly and get away, it might not be such a dangerous mission.”

“Shall I shoot you?”

Millet asked. The warrior shook his head and said.

“It’s not that I can’t believe Millet’s skill with a bow, but all the surrounding highlands have enemy watchtowers or barracks, and the location of Stauffen is also quite high. The barracks will be covered by a fence, so it won’t be easy to snipe. I don’t even know how the trees grew.”

Miele pursed her lips slightly as if it was a waste and nodded.

The hero picked up the hilt again and said.

“I think we should meet and talk with Kiberes first, and then decide on the details.”

Lena nodded as well.

“right. that would be nice It would be difficult if a child like Stauffen or something had just 5 hearts, or if he was resurrected even if he died. There is no time to pour oil on it and burn it.”

I nodded and looked out of the carriage. In the distance, I could see the forward military base guarded by Kiberes. This place was larger than other places because it had a village and a military base, and it was a pleasant place in terms of supplies and facilities.

In terms of location, it is in the middle of an important road to the kingdom, so this position itself was also a proof of trust in Kiberes. As I put my chin on my chin and watched the soldiers moving along the walls, Ashria asked.

“What are you looking at?”

“I was looking at the village. I think I’ve seen it a few times before, but it’s a really unique town.”

The castle walls and wooden fences were exquisitely connected, and the appearance of old women and women passing by the soldiers was impressive. Right next to him, training continued with sharp spirits, and there was a wife who made grass porridge for the animals.

Lena looked at him and said.

“It seems that the boundaries are divided.”

The hero tilted his head at her words. I looked at Lena as well, and she drew a line in the air with her hands outstretched forward.

“So, don’t you think the battlefield and the civilian village are separated from here? It’s a battleground right from the castle walls. It seems that this village professes.”

The warrior nodded.

“It wasn’t like this in the past, but now it’s a real war, and it’s only because we’re at the front here as well. If the bases at the forefront are pushed back, enemy troops will come right here.”

“Kybereth is in a very important place.”

As Lena nodded and said, Millet helped.

“I got promoted more because I betrayed you! Shall we say congratulations when we meet Kiberes?”

Ashuria stroked Millet’s head and said.

“Let’s celebrate together after the war. millet.”

“Okay!”

I smiled bitterly when the name of Kiberes was mentioned. I wanted to avoid meeting the woman I once met again, but it was coming back to me in a strange form that made it impossible to avoid meeting. The soldier guarding the watchtower checked us out and waved. The warrior said while adjusting his armor.

“They say there will be a simple banquet, but don’t you drink too much?”

Hearing that, Lena looked at the hero with a grin. The hero pretended not to notice Lena’s gaze, cleared his throat, and then kicked the knife around his waist.

Millet, who was still looking outside, said.

“ah! The door opens!”

We all raised our heads and looked out of the carriage. A huge wooden door opened, and through it I could see soldiers standing in a line.

In the middle of the soldiers stood a woman in a well-dressed saluting pose, whose sharp, formal angle, like a ruler, made her whistle spontaneously.

“Gak is an art.”

Lena listened to me and smiled.

“mister. It was really scary until a moment ago, but do you like the angle of the salute like a knife?”

“Heaven seems to be unavoidable. I didn’t learn chivalry after joining the knights, but I learned how to be crazy about angles since I was a trainee. It’s like an occupational disease.”

The warrior nodded and said.

“Because the imperial army’s ceremonies were famous for being tight. I’ve heard of it too. When educating new recruits, the instructors carry a ruler around to correct their posture.”

I said while shaking my head.

“That’s the education of the honor guard gone wrong. The Templars don’t go that far.”

Lena said with a frown as if shocked that there was a unit that actually did it.

“What is it, did the chairman’s unit really do that?”

“Isn’t it cool that soldiers can show off?”

Lena was disgusted.

“Oh, I can’t do that because I’m frustrated.”

Ashuria felt the wagon slow down and took the Bible. Then he lowered his voice and spoke.

“Maybe it’s because Kiberes was also a soldier. You sure do well. It must have been difficult when you practiced because you were used to the rituals of the demons.”

And the carriage stopped. Instead of responding out loud to Ashuria’s words, we nodded. Since Cabares was facing the hero with proper manners, we also had to observe the minimum formality.

A warrior got out of the stopped carriage.

Even facing the hero, Kayberes stood still.

Looking at it like this, I could tell that Kiberes was wearing a unique outfit.

Rather than being flashy, it had a strong feeling of arranging the conquest of the kingdom army to match Cayberes. The black and white color scheme emphasized a neat and solemn feeling, and at the same time, the leg line, waist, and chest line were subtly exposed, showing off a mature charm.

The hero took a deep breath, looked around, and saluted Kebereth in the same way.

After saluting at the warrior’s greeting, Cayberes turned around and spoke to the soldiers.

“mind… … .”

I felt like I stopped breathing for a moment. The hero also widened his eyes and was nervous, and Ashria tilted her head. The moment Lena’s corners of her mouth rose slightly, Kiberes covered her mouth and started coughing.

“Geuhup… ! Hmm… ! Coke… ! Hmm… !”

Lena whispered to Ashuria.

“Was it the Demon King? Was it a demon?”

Ashuria heard that and began to think about it. Meanwhile, the hero relaxed and returned to his calm expression, while the soldiers stared at Caybereth. Kiberes stopped coughing and said with an embarrassed expression.

“…I’m sorry. I coughed because I was nervous.”

After Kiberes apologized, the atmosphere eased up again. she shouted again in a stern voice.

“Everyone line up!”

The soldiers who were standing in a row and holding their posture corrected their spears. Lena also let out an exclamation because the way she moved all at once looked plausible. The hero was looking over the soldier with a familiar expression, and Kayberes looked back at the hero.

She asked for a handshake with a soft expression as if the ceremony was over.

“Long time no see. warrior. Nice to see you like this. You worked really hard on this operation. We’ve already been contacted about the mission, so let’s go upstairs and talk about the details.”

She was a businesslike and soft-spoken person. It was also the moment when she realized that she was a soldier of the kingdom. The hero also blinked his eyes after hearing her tone, and replied belatedly.

“Nice to meet you, too. kiberes. There are many things I want to ask you about how you have been.”

“I will go up and talk about that too. First of all, you have to unload the load. You can hand over your luggage to the soldiers here. The soldier here will guide you to the room where you will be staying for the day.”

Saying so, Kiberes opened the way. The soldiers stood stiff in front of the hero and moved with nervous faces, and the hero walked slowly behind him. The soldiers took my knapsack from me, followed by Ashuria, Lena, and Millet.

Kiberes stared at me, blocking my path.

I said avoiding her gaze.

“I… . now… .”

“I have a question for you.”

I replied with a wink. It seemed that if I opened my mouth, a stupid sound would come out. Kayberes touched the hem of his clothes and blushed. Then, with his head tilted to the side, he asked in a low voice.

“Hey, does this suit suit you well?”
