To Save My Favourite Character, I Decided To Destroy the Game’s Plot

'Is it Ausstadt---"

The arrival of the messenger revealed to us our next destination.

Ausstadt, Arthur's hometown, is a vast region located along the border with the Exil region.

Ausstadt, with its numerous mines, has been fought over many times by countries seeking its abundant resources.

About a hundred years ago, the king of Arcadia at that time made Ausstadt his own territory and built a huge fort along the border with a lot of materials, and finally settled down.

　Therefore, even today, Ausstadt is adjacent to a hostile superpower and is known as one of the leading military cities in the country.

　---After all.

That was the impression I had when I was told of our next destination.

　I had somehow imagined that this would happen.

It is now seven years before the start of the story.

　According to the story of game , an unprecedented war had broken out involving Auschtadt around that time.

A neighboring nation, which had been hostile for many years, launched a military invasion with the support of its allies.

In the original version of the plot line, where the irregularity of "Norwin" did not exist, the forces of Ausstadt alone were unable to push back the enemy forces, and the war was so chaotic that even Galdias and Almir were eventually deployed.

　Although the specific number of casualties is not known, there were many descriptions of the pain of that time.

　It must have been a hellish battlefield.

In this world, the story is twisted by the irregularity of me, so Schneizel is there from the beginning and there are many other uncertainties.

Still, I am not certain if I can win.

　If we get through this, we will definitely have a lot to gain, but...

" Boy."

"Boy."

"Hey, boy."

"Hey, kid."

"Hey, boy."

Oh, shit.

　I looked up, holding my forehead, and saw Schneizel looking down at me with a sigh.

　I was so prolonged in my thoughts that I seemed to have ignored Schneizel's question.

"What is it?'

The messenger had received an additional report. It seems that members of the monk's ten-man squad have arrived as well.

'Does that mean Vasel-san is here too?"

Yes, that's right. He is ostensibly the captain of the ten, and he and his men are waiting for you at the back gate.

Oh, should I go there then?

"Oh. "

I understand. Also, you know, ------."

"What?"

I'm new to this kind of thing, so I'm a little nervous. I just need you to keep an eye on things, so please follow me.

"Oh, damn. I can't help it."

 

Despite his sighs and his words, Schneizel got up from his seat with a somewhat happy look on his face.

　If he was in a good mood because he was being asked to do something for me, it was either gratifying or adorable.

Well, is this what happens when you are asked to do favors for an apprentice who usually lacks a trace of cuteness?

　I don't know.

　While thinking this, I took Schneizel to the back gate of the Exil family.

　There he was...

"Your Excellency, it has been a long time. Norwin-dono seems to have not changed at all."

　First, Vasel, the ostensible captain.

"Have you grown since I last saw you?"

　Next is Frankel, Hyann's right-hand man.

"Ah, Mr. Norwin. It's been a long time."

Then Kaine, who still has a neutral appearance, as if he is a man or a woman.

Is that the kid from back then? You look a little different."

Then there is the old man who is Kaine's guardian.

The four of them were the center of the group, and six more were gathered in the alley behind the house.

"No, seriously?"

　No, no, what?

I thought you'd be a little weaker since you' re working for him.

　No, no, no.

　Kaine is so powerful that the White Mask hesitated to fight him, and since even more time has passed since then, he is probably stronger than he was then.

I remember hearing the old man who protects it was once a dark underworld pocket-sword.

Vasel and Frankel are stronger than me.

　Too strong? Too strong?

　Earlier, I was worried about whether we could win the war, but suddenly I feel like we can do it.

　Because, obviously, Haiyan has a hand in this selection.

　He is a very strong man with an unusually worrisome personality, so he must have some reason to believe that we will be successful.

　What on earth was he thinking? Frankel immediately opened his mouth to my questioning.

"You were surprised to see me, weren't you?"

Yes, well, I mean, I didn't think you were here'"

'But here's the thing. Here's the real deal".

"Yes?"

　Frankel smiles at my reaction. After a pause, he finally opened his mouth.

" I heard that our boss is going to be in the war too."

'Oh, yes."

　I've won.
