Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 1382. Maybe I should issue a general mobilization order.

Viscount Osborn Kalos, the court mage of Escatos Kingdom, did not stay long at Count Helio Lagoa’s quarters.

As the time was right, he was conscious of the eyes of the Imperial Intelligence Agency.

That night.

Fabian sat down at the table to write a letter.

However, when I tried to write it, I had mixed feelings and could not write a single word.

Elio, who was looking at him lying on the bed, said.

“What are you doing? Are you having a sacrifice?”

“I’m writing a reply… but I don’t know what to write.”

“Write honestly, man.”

“Looking back, I look like a bad guy.”

“It’s not the same thing, it’s the bad guy.”

“I’ve been really frustrated with Count Lagoa. I thought you were living life very boringly… but now I think I understand.”

“Anyway, I’m worried about Miss Sara. If you returned to the Phantom Knights, wouldn’t you be put on the front line sooner or later? You saw dead and wounded soldiers in the South being loaded into wagons. What if Sarah gets injured? But I can’t mean to ask Sarah to go to the rear.”

“It’s all your destiny.”

“It wasn’t fate, it happened because of you, man. If you had contacted me right away, Miss Sera would not have returned to the Knights.”

Fabian, who was in tears, slightly raised his voice.

“I know. Do you think it’s because I don’t know? Even if you know, there is no way.”

Elio was dumbfounded that the fart guy was angry, but he didn’t say anything.

As Fabian said, there was no way to do it.

Suddenly, Elio said.

“Should I put an iron plate on my face and ask the king to remove Sarah?”

“Miss Sara will refuse. She is a knight who knows how to take responsibility for her choices.”

“Well, I guess I’ll be waiting for you until now, right?”

“Isn’t that a bit different from responsibility?”

“It’s done. If you have a conscience, go to the temple and pray. Please don’t let Sarah get hurt.”

“Yes…”

Fabian turned his gaze back to the letter.

Still, it was not as vague as before, perhaps because the complicated mind had been cleared.

Elio muttered to himself as he watched Fabian write.

‘Still, I wish you Because I can contact you.’

He couldn’t do anything for the family he left behind.

It feels like my intestines are breaking when I think of a daughter who is left alone, missing her parents and growing old lonely.

He put his hand into Mahadam (space storage) and touched the core of Kama Debias, the sun god.

If it wasn’t for this, we might have become enemies with Mana Phras by now.

However, with only this, you can go back to the time when you left Seokgyeongjang.

It is to meet Namgung-yeon, who disappeared in another world, again.

The Kingdom of Salam is destroyed.

The southern kingdom army, which had retreated to Majid, the old castle after the capital Dares was taken away, was eventually pushed back by the imperial army and fled to the Dnirov Kingdom.

When the Imperial Army gathered on the border of the Dnirov Kingdom, the Northern Kingdom, which had been watching, finally declared war on the Empire.

The southern kingdoms now expected the imperial army’s momentum to be weakened, but the imperial army gathered on the border of Dnirov crossed the border as it was.

The prince’s expeditionary force roamed the south, ignoring the northern front.

Meanwhile, when the northern kingdoms declared war, the empire immediately reinforced its northern borders.

The empire, which had already rearmed its entire army with musketeers, was not intimidated by the northern declaration of war.

Or rather, the Imperial commanders rejoiced as an opportunity to seize the North.

Considering the prince’s major in the south, that was natural.

But that was an illusion.

The Northern Kingdoms are not stupid.

They looked at the military achievements of the imperial army in the south and trained musketeers.

The most important material for a magic gun is a mana stone.

70% of Mana Stones circulating on the continent are from the North.

As such, the Northern Kingdom was also an important customer of the Mage Tower.

Thanks to this, the Northern Kingdom army was able to quickly arm themselves with magic guns.

Of course, there are still cavalry and swordsman units, but not as much as in the south.

It was the Northern Kingdom that declared war, but it was the Imperial Army that crossed the border first.

To that extent, the spirit of the Imperial Army pierced the sky.

Power was equal on both sides.

The Imperial Army mobilized the 1st Artillery Brigade of the 1st and 9th Divisions and the newly created armored forces.

The Northern Kingdom Army is a support force of 12 divisions and 3 artillery battalions drawn from the Kingdom of Escatos, Baylem, Raminof, Severin, and Fricia.

The northern kingdom army had a lot of guns, but the imperial army had the upper hand in artillery.

Ten days after the declaration of war, the Imperial Army and the Northern Kingdom Army clashed across the border.

Contrary to the Empire’s expectations, the result was a thin ice.

The Imperial Army could not penetrate the northern kingdom armed with magic guns.

Still, the number of casualties came more from the Northern Kingdom.

Most of them were hit by the magical artillery of the 1st Artillery Brigade of the Imperial Army.

It was the same with the Imperial Army.

The Imperial Army also had to suffer considerable damage from the Northern Kingdom’s three magic batteries.

The Imperial Army and the Northern Kingdom Army belatedly clung to the expansion of magic cannons.

However, unlike the magic gun, the production and distribution of the magic cannon was slow.

Still, thanks to the Northern Kingdom’s propaganda, the Southern Kingdom’s army was able to breathe.

It was because the prince’s expeditionary force was hesitant due to supply problems.

Even for an empire, maintaining two fronts was not an easy task.

Still, the imperial army did not lose their composure.

This is because it is a war that cannot be lost unless the strategic weapon Excitium and the improved Goliath are defeated.

***

The southern kingdom forces retreated from the kingdom of Salam regrouped in the kingdom of Dnirov.

Following Shade Adria, the southern kingdom’s morale fell to the ground as the kingdom of Salam was taken away.

Compared to the northern kingdom, where the war had just begun, the situation in the southern kingdom was not good.

In the war, they continued to lose, and in the rear – unaware of the empire’s insidious plan to obliterate the kingdom – they shouted only negotiations to end the war.

Even in such a hopeless situation, the war command did not give up hope.

They believed King Adria’s words and waited for Magenta.

And their wish came true.

Southern Dnirov Kingdom.

The border town of Anator.

midnight.

The gates of Anator, which had been firmly closed, opened.

Soon, dozens of wagons lined up and entered the castle.

From the mouth of Raoul Brosnan, King of Adria, ‘Hooray!’ A sound came out.

This is because Magenta sent the promised new weapon, Thanatos, as well as the unrequested magic gun.

Of course, a magic gun is essential to use Thanatos, but he didn’t know that Magenta would even send a magic gun.

From the next day, the southern kingdom army went into rearmament.

Along with magic guns, Thanatos was issued to the soldiers.

Thanatos was supplied to the Army of the Southern Kingdom as if water was permeating through it.

Meanwhile, the prince’s expeditionary force went into maintenance for 15 days at the border of Dnirov Kingdom.

After the maintenance, the expeditionary force advanced to Anator with the improved Goliath unit named ‘1st Armored Division’.

There were no obstacles for the expeditionary force on their way to Anator.

When the southern kingdom army met the imperial army, they fled.

The expeditionary force took it for granted because it was a sight they had always seen since the kingdom of Salam.

around noon.

In front of the stone-walled border town of Anator, the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force and Crown Prince Louis Fraser III waved his hand.

The horsepower cannon of the artillery brigade, which had been waiting for the guns in the rear, opened fire.

bang! bang! bang! bang-!

In less than half an hour, the stone walls of Anator collapsed.

Still, the southern kingdom army was silent.

It’s a similar atmosphere to when they occupied Dares, the capital of the kingdom of Salam, not too long ago.

The prince and his staff believed that the southern kingdom army command had vacated the city.

The gunfire stopped when one wall collapsed and the interior of the city was clearly visible.

The prince ordered the chief of staff.

“There may be remnants left, so let the armored units enter first. Group 1 follows. Lunch will be eaten at Anator.”

Then, the chief of staff, Marquis Reid Kostock, carefully opened his mouth.

“majesty. At least 7 kingdom armies are concentrated in the Dnirov Kingdom. Enemy resistance may be strong, so how about putting the nearest 20th Division in front?”

He was saying this because he was in trouble if the 1st Army Group commanded by the crown prince suffered damage.

“If you look at it that way, it’s just the desperate struggle of the defeated soldiers. Didn’t you experience in Dares that it meant nothing? It’s the first city of the Dnirov Kingdom, so we have to lead the way.”

The prince thought it was a monumental task and did not yield.

In the end, the Crown Prince’s 1st Army Corps followed behind the cavalry.

It’s time for the lead of the cavalry to enter over the freshly collapsed stone wall.

Pupperpuppung-!

Pupperpuppung-!

A blue light flew in from somewhere along with the sound of a magic gun and hit Goliath.

There are two types of Goliaths in the Empire.

One was first deployed in production and carried a huge longsword, while the other was improved and had a magic gun instead of hands.

The Goliath of the Expeditionary Force armored unit has 7 Goliaths in the early stages and 1 Goliath that has been improved.

Regardless of the weapon, Goliath crushed the army of the southern kingdom with strong armor.

The only person capable of dealing with Goliath was the Sword Master, but it was no exaggeration to say that the Sword Master was invincible because of Excitium.

However, Goliath’s torso was pierced and his arms and legs were blown off.

A total of eight Goliaths were neutralized in five minutes.

When Goliath, which was a moving barrier, disappeared, the 1st Army Group was greatly embarrassed.

Subsequently, magic bullets and the blue light of the courtesy flew into the 1st Army Group.

The 1st Army Group, standing in the clearing, was helpless.

Belatedly, the 20th and 35th Divisions on the left and right, respectively, came to the aid of the 1st Army Group.

The reason why the Imperial Army has been able to maintain its superiority so far is that the number of musketeers was overwhelmingly greater than that of the Southern Kingdom Army.

However, it was difficult to ignore the magic gun fired from Anator and charge.

The 1st Army Group, which had been caught off guard with easy victories so far, collapsed in vain.

As the magic bullets flew, the staff escaped to the rear escorting the commander-in-chief, the crown prince.

Even though the 20th and 35th Divisions followed by the 21st Division joined, they could not cross the collapsed stone wall.

As time passed, the tide turned against the expeditionary force.

Anator’s surroundings were all open, so the expeditionary force had no choice.

As there was no sign of occupation and the damage increased, the crown prince pushed back his troops.

The prince glared at Anator, who was surrounded by stone walls.

The steel city of Feromuros was also occupied, but not being able to cross that poor stone wall made my blood flow backwards.

At that time, the chief of staff of the expeditionary force, Marquis Reid Kostock, approached with a dark face.

“Your Highness…”

The chief of staff couldn’t even report right away as if the result was embarrassing.

“What about the damage of allies?”

“The cavalry unit suffered near-annihilation damage…”

At that moment, the prince shouted out, unable to hold back his anger.

“Annihilation! Magic bullets can’t pierce Goliath’s armor, what are you talking about!”

“According to the survivors of the cavalry unit… the armor was pierced by a magic bullet that glowed blue. It seems that the Southern Kingdom has developed a new weapon comparable to Excitium.”

The prince gritted his teeth, but did not refute.

Seeing Goliath destroyed right before my eyes, it was hard to deny.

“and?”

“There were many casualties in the 1st Army Group. There are 249 confirmed dead, 355 wounded, and 194 missing.”

That’s a loss of nearly 800 people.

Considering that the number of the 1st Army Group was 5,000, it was a serious damage.

Considering the losses of other combat divisions, it was time for countermeasures.

If there is a new weapon like Excitium in the Southern Kingdom, the Northern Front won’t be easy either.

The prince muttered as he glared at Anator who was standing behind the stone wall.

“Maybe we should issue a general mobilization order.”
