The girl with the fire wheel.

Lesson 36: The Devil's March

Five thousand troops led by Noel, who left Evel Castle, first targeted the fall of the city Rockbell. After that, we only go through Canaan Avenue for Madres.

Uses were sent in advance to villages and garrisons on the road to assure their safety that they would do nothing if they did not resist. Knowing that it was Noel who was leading the soldiers, most gave up their resistance in fear. What happened to the Lord who resisted has been proven in earlier battles. I can't wait to be burned alive, the beginning and end of offering even the hostages as a sign of obedience. It is the moment when the sprinkled seeds of the ligret finally come to fruition.

Some of them were fond of taking swords and joining their people. Accepting all who have volunteered, Noel moves on.

And among the lovers who have volunteered on the road, Noel found a nostalgic face.

"- That. If you think of someone, it's not a milt. What are you doing here?

"... if you come here, think I'll see you. I've been waiting with my fellow villagers."

"I feel like it's been a really long time. Hey, how you doing?

When Noel slaps his back vigorously, the milt releases. He had grown for three years, but his body had lost more weight than before.

"... Not really, you're not well. I've been working at the mine my whole life. Thanks to the Red Wheel Army, we're finally free."

The villages of North Coimbra had been ordered to perform labor if they could not pay taxes, and had taken young people to the mines. The mining zone that Grohl has already given up as no prospect, there is no way to find it so easily. The never-ending labor and collapse claimed many lives. I just escaped, and there's nothing I can do. Because the village is gasping for poverty in the village. Exactly, the Milts were in hell. Even if I was just satisfied with the five bodies, I could say I was lucky.

"Oh well, that's good to hear. You don't have to work anymore."

"... oh, really. There's something weird about being helped by that Red Wheel Army. He doesn't seem to be looting like he did before, and maybe Master Elgar can believe it. That's why we came here to join you."

A milt with a stern face holds a used bow and rings a string. Being around is probably the face of the village of Zoim. Somehow, I feel like I look familiar.

Among the Noel squads, there are former Zoim villagers. Those who refused to return in the battle ahead. They seemed to be acting with the termite party, and they welcomed Noel with great joy. He practiced hard to form an army band, and the performance was truly brilliant.

"Hmm. But you could die, right? If you've gained momentum, I think you should stop. When you die, for a moment."

Noel shows difficulty. He's skinny and doesn't look very fightable. I don't want Milt, who has been kind to me in the village, to die. So Noel let go and said, "You should stop."

"If you hadn't come, I would have died in that mine. That's why I want to pay this debt back. We're going south, aren't we? Then we should need as much manpower as we can. Let me help you."

Under the Red Wheel Army, which took control of the North Coimbra, such prostitutes were pushing heavily. Their thoughts are one. It's revenge on those who were splitting coin bras and smoking sweet honey. Especially the hostility to Gaddis and Wilm, who betrayed him in the previous battle, is awesome.

"But what about Cal? You're gonna be alone."

"He'll be fine by himself. Even without me, I lived well in the village.... he's still got that picture book."

"What are you talking about? You can't do that."

Noel said it out strongly. Being alone is really lonely. Now that we have one more cup of company, I know very well. It's really scary to think about going back to the days I've been wandering around alone right now. I'm sure I can't stand it, I'm dead.

"But I am!

"Because one misses you. I'm sure Cal's just being strong."

"We're not hungry anymore. You can't stay with him forever!

"Bye, you can take me here. If you work properly, we'll have dinner."

To the rebellious milt, Noel decided to propose one proposal. Noel gets fun, and Cal doesn't miss him. Exactly two birds with one stone.

"... no, getting into battle with boulders is"

"It's okay, it's okay. If you're in danger, you can run away. At that time, I'll let you go. So, huh?

"Uh-huh."

"If you don't like it, no. You can go home and live with Cal. I think that's the best part."

"... ok. Truth be told, I knew I was anxious to be left alone. I'll pick you up later."

"Yeah, that's good. Now we can play together again! Besides, it's going to be fine this time."

Noel laughed, offering his hand to the milt. A milt with a scratchy hand comes back to grip it.

"You, no, Captain Noel really hasn't changed. I think I've grown taller than before."

"Haha, the milt is old, isn't it"

"At least tell me you're grown up"

After a while, Milt brought Cal back to the village of Zoim. After a while of thinking about what to do, I decided to put Cal on Ligret's help. It's called a choreographer. When I was busy, I told him to sound busy, so I distracted him. Although it seemed more laborious to teach and vice versa. Noel decided not to care because it would be nice to struggle once in a while.

"Um, Sister Noel.... Mr. Ligret, I think he's kind of mad."

"My personality is bad, but if I get used to it, I'll be fine. There are some surprisingly interesting things about it. So good luck with everything."

Noel gently slapped Cal on the shoulder. He has his hands on his hips greatly as Ligret shines his glasses.

"I know you're a little girl from the country, but you're a redhead fool, but I'm just not willing to let you eat. If you don't want to starve to death, good luck. I hate incompetent people, so I'm going to."

"You know, it's funny."

"Aha, haha"

Cal's smile, which I hadn't seen in a long time, was convulsing. I know it's tough, but I'm used to everything.

Still, Noel thinks you've got one more cup of company.

The five thousand companions who are now in action with Noel truly bring together all sorts of humans.

Young people on Willa Island, where Noel was on the island stream, former pirates who were coming to attack it, and coimbra soldiers who were on the island. And the familiar termite party. Coimbra Army Remnants who were subordinates when Noel was a hundred chiefs. And then there are the militias of the Red Wheel Army and the hunters of the village of Zoim, who have now joined their companions. He even participates in the footsteps of Gembu, who is wearing a distinctive formation umbrella. Kai dispatched me to distract me.

(Really, I've got a lot of company, and I think the world has expanded a lot)

While on the island stream, Noel had extended his legs to various states. We put a replacement on the island, and the watchmen were through to Noel, so we largely managed.

Sidden's arrangement extended his legs from Gembu to Giv and to Karm Biz to talk to various great people. The situation seemed painful in every state, and it bothered my head how to break this. To that end, I soon found out that the fathoms, including Sidden, were trying to use Noel's thing. But Noel decided to ride it. Because it turns out that the Elgers are on this plan, too.

I'm not going to be a throwaway pawn at all, but if I can cooperate for a purpose, I can be one of them. Besides, Sidden has been kind to me a lot. I was willing to thank you.

So when Gemb State attacked Longstorm, Noel decided to take soldiers from Willa Island and head for Elgar. Elgar, I can repay my debt to Sidden for fulfilling my promise to Cynthia and for all the more convenience he has given me.

Sidden let it go because he seemed to be up to something else, but it didn't seem like a bad thing. I was concerned that Kai had a strange look, but I never broke my mouth after hearing it many times. The Genbs are not only superior to martial arts, they are stubborn enough to die.

"... but that's something that will change if you change. General Wilm, who received so much support from the people - no, I didn't expect Wilm to be hated so much."

As Noel thinks about all sorts of things, Cynthia next door mutters to herself with a dark look.

"It's easy. When something bad happens, you want someone to push it. It's your fault. If that's what you're dressed for, whoever you are, throws a stone at it. That's not human."

"... you're starting to say things like you get it. Apparently, he didn't just grow taller, he also grew inner"

Cynthia snorts small and admirable. Noel strained his chest to his liking. And I put on my glasses and showed them also emphasizing my intelligence. It would be twice as convincing if you put this on.

"I've studied for the last three years. Interesting or annoying. It's all about balance."

"... hmm. It's like you don't get it."

"Simply put, it's always sunny but troublesome. So I tried to put up with the rain I didn't like."

Some sunny days, some rainy days. Neither can it be a cloudy day. If you continue every day because you feel good when it's sunny, the land will wither away. Conversely, if it keeps raining all the time, the crop will rot. In other words, balance is important.

As for Noel, the best proportion is seven for sunshine and three for rain. On sunny days we plow the land, and on rainy days we fall asleep unfaithful. Doesn't that seem like a good way around the world?

"Sure, but don't even feel like it's kind of supremely obvious"

Cynthia laughs bitterly.

But since it couldn't be taken for granted, wouldn't the world suffer? It strikes other continents, or accumulates its own wealth, causing a variety of imbalances. The most inexplicable thing is, you know, it's still going on. I really don't understand it, but Ligret says that's what humans are for, so they can't help it.

"Well, it is. But it's amazing how much rain you can put up with."

It's no different to be harsh, but I stopped putting it on my face. I was going to. But the kids on the island told me their faces were cramped and funny on rainy days. I hit him in the tongue for once.

"It's not great, but I think it might be great for you personally."

I mean, three years on the island, too.

Noel glances around after saying the right thing.

"Right, that breaking fortress, you want to go for a minute? Is that still there?

Fortress trail where I met Cynthia. I kind of wanted to go check it out. I'm very interested in what's going on now. I don't have time to be playing, but I can't help but wonder.

"You'll still have it, but we don't have time for that. First, what are you going to do with that ruin?"

"You think you'll immerse yourself in memories or explore? I think we have a lot to do."

Noel talks about uncovering measures while touching his glasses. Cynthia gave me a frightened look like before. I like Noel. While I think he's a troubled guy, he's a good educator. Because there, I can feel something like kindness somewhere.

Being able to find such things is also the fruit of the last three years of training.

"So it won't be if you're playing. We're going to attack Rockbell. More nervousness."

There, a decree on horseback rushed in.

"Dear Noel! Rockbell has opened the gate and surrendered! Please stay in the city!

"Yeah, okay. Tell them, too. And keep Barbus on guard to watch out for soldiers coming from Madres. I don't think so, but it could come as a surprise."

"Got it!

A decree circling the horse's head and screaming Rockbell surrender to Barbus' squad. Cynthia looked like she was moving and suddenly Noel grabbed her.

"Hey, what do you mean! They surrender even though they haven't even exchanged a single match yet! Besides, Wilm's edger should have been the lord over there!

Of course Noel grasped it. We also knew that if we did it properly, there would be less damage. So I decided to surrender. Some people stop thinking about their status, their position, etc. if they precede death. Thanks also to Ligret for grasping the nature of the edge.

"I was asking Ligret to go to Rockbell as a messenger. You can surrender whatever you want. Looks like you're doing well."

"Li, to Lord Ligret?

"Yeah. While I was on the island, I got even more pretty on my tongue. Not only that, but I think I got the art of blackmailing you. I've been able to devote all my energy to my opponent's weakness. So it's getting worse than before."

"............... well"

Cynthia pulling it off completely. Nor does Noel want to get too close to the side of Ligret, who whines to himself. However, I have never hesitated because the reaction is interesting when I give it a little bit. The reaction is interesting, so it becomes a habit.

Speaking of which, I've complimented Ligret before. "Sexual roots haven't changed at all, but you've got more black shine than before," he said. Then I got the tongue of the synagogue.

"I'm, like, a demon or something. So if you don't surrender, that's already going to be terrible, or something, and I think you threatened me. It's also an idea to become famous, isn't it? Is this the guy with the famous taxes?

With all the usual retribution, Ligret has a hobby of spreading Noel's bad reputation. As we go, we will use the funds to spread suspicious rumors about the devil's warfare. I guess I believed that would sooner or later yield a great harvest. As for Noel, it was quite annoying. I'm pretty tired of being threatened all the time. Besides, everyone on Willa Island still only calls me the devil. It is salvation that is familiar, but I am not convinced.

"... yes, maybe it is"

"Well, if you save me the extra effort, I don't care about that"

After laughing, Noel signals with his hand and starts walking with the soldiers. The aim is the city of Rockbell. I'm sure it will remain abandoned inside. I don't think I could afford to be fixing it, and Wilm wouldn't have been willing to fix it.

"Inside, I guess I'm still blurry"

"Oh, that's what I hear. Wilm was focused on the Emperor's Operation Dawn. They cut off the disturbed north and the needy, and bet men, gold, and resources on a continental expedition. The result, as you can see."

I've never wanted to go to another continent. But I might want to talk to someone there. Noel thought that. I feel like my world is expanding. Speaking of which, I recall there was a continental named Irvan. Looking at the fold and trying to talk sooner or later, Noel thought. I think I can hear an interesting story.

"I wanted to be great in the previous battle. It's hard to be great."

"If we become great, it will involve great responsibility. That's the mentor."

"That's true, too, but with one of my choices, you can't get involved to everyone. It's really hard, isn't it? I have to carry my life."

"… it is not a dialogue between those who have already led the soldiers. Stop putting it to words because the soldiers are anxious."

Cynthia pounded her head lightly. I miss this too.

"Haha, so is that!

"Not at all."

"But if you get great, you'll have a cup of company, right? I think that's a lot of fun. So I guess I want to be great. I want to be more great."

When Noel took out the trumpet, he showed off his skill better than before. The song is Noel Squad Marching Song. Only the Willa Island soldier, who has practiced many times, begins to sing along with that melody. Soon, however, the familiar Coimbra soldiers began playing. This also surprised Noel the boulder. At the end of the day, we could all march as we sang. - Although Ligret's trumpet was the same.

With the flag of the two hammers raised high, Noel entered the city of Rockbell, where he surrendered.

- Madres Castle, South Coimbra State Capital.

Only five days after we received the report of the fall of the North Coimbra. Reports jumped in that Rockbell had surrendered, which should be the last wall of defense for Madres.

"You're still a Coimbra soldier, such as going down without a single fight! What indolent people!!

"Taishou. Now, it's a southern coin bra. Soldiers who seem to be able to fight have almost sent them to the continent. All the recruits, even though the numbers are in order. It can't be on them, such as pride as a soldier."

Perius vomiting spicy words. Wilm stares in anger. The daring use of Perius, who will remember resentment and anger against himself, is that there is hope from the people and from the civilian population. And because I know I would never betray you from that innocent character. There was no room in Wilm to be slashing and throwing away competent figures.

"Then let them know that the betrayed soldiers will be severely punished. Show me, I don't mind killing the wife of the one who surrendered this time! Put a toothpick on it or the army will collapse!

"The lord of Rockbell was on the far side of Taishou. You can't possibly think about surrendering without a single match. If you're going to blame the soldiers who surrendered, you can't be held responsible for appointing Taisho. And you're telling me you don't mind?

"... wet"

Wilm can't find a word to give back. He appointed a lord because he was a wilm like no other.

At the time of the former rebellion, Lord Barrel Loot Wing had died in the hands of a thief. Wilm, who won the Taishou seat of Southern Coimbra, had made sure to appoint a son, Royer, to consolidate the ground, and to place an edger in the major nearby cities. It is from the thought that it is the position of a lotus student and will never betray him. But that expectation was easily betrayed. I spared my life and didn't think this would succumb easily either.

"In any case, now you can't even count on the defense of each fort, city. I called General Royer back from the street defense and asked him if it would be best to go to the castle in Madres."

"You want me to wait for this reinforcement without you here? He told me to just consolidate my protection while I put the thief in front of him."

It's too weak a strategy, but what we're discussing is too risky. The only commanders I can trust are myself and Royer. It is out of the question to empty the madre, although it will inevitably make its own appearance. When that happens, all that remains is a castle ploy.

Focus on the expedition Not much, the tsuke that was neglecting to nurture a trustworthy human being is turning around. Wilm now bites his teeth.

(Training of martial and civilian officers, enriching the state and strengthening the soldiers. I didn't know you had lost sight of the fundamentals of politics. How long have my eyes been cloudy?

Until I decided to betray Grohl, I should certainly have thought only of the state. How to enrich the people and enrich their homeland. But since my ambitions had sprung up, I was just desperate to think about it and make my plot go around. I didn't even think about the happiness of the earliest people since the memorial was granted and I climbed into Taisho.

"... but do we have to stop up here"

"Yes. Fortunately, Madres was not even involved in the earlier battles, and the robust defense is alive and well. If you draw supplies from the sea, you can withstand long wars well enough. Besides, if you buy time, the rebels could destroy themselves."

"All right, I'll take the castle measures. Request reinforcements from Bahr, send messengers to Liberdam to drop supplies over the sea. If you're reluctant, you can threaten it's your turn next!

"Understood."

Answer short, Perius tries to back down. Wilm speaks up on its back.

"... wait a minute, Perius. Don't you want to join the Red Wheel Army?"

"What does that mean?

"Don't be ridiculous! Your late master's son has risen to take his revenge. You must have sworn allegiance to Grohl. Why are you still here?

Even the brigands betrayed and surrendered. There's no way Perius is forgiving Wilm for killing Grohl and robbing him of his fatigue. Because of his personality, he didn't expect to betray him, but doubts began to arise in his chest. That's why I checked.

"I am not convinced by the way in which force is used to open it. Threaten with force and pass your own justice. If this were to become the natural world, it would be just hell.... I guess that's exactly what's happening now. Therefore, I have no sword. That will remain the same. Like, whoever you're dealing with."

Perius' thoughts, which would never be understood by the world's leaders. But this man would have spoken up against the emperor. Even if you were to die.

"... right"

"But deep down, there is a desire to kill you and deliver your neck to you young man. That I'm just desperately holding it down with reason. I'm really sorry, but I beg you not to ask me the same thing again.... if you're trapped in emotions, it's people who don't know what to do."

"... oh, okay"

Unable to withstand the gaze of hostile Perius, Wilm turned away.

(... this wasn't supposed to happen. At first, everything was going well. But why did this happen? What the hell was wrong with you?

Wilm bet, the Continental Expedition went well initially. Resources and precious metals were also delivered continuously, and at the end of the day they even came to the Continentals. Trade was also initiated with the new Länder Verdant. People were returning to the South Coimbra and the finances were beginning to moisten. The support of the people was gathered, and everyone was finally beginning to acknowledge that Wilm deserved more than Grohl.

That suddenly turned around. The offensive on the continent stopped and gradually fell into a disadvantage. Like pouring water into a missing vessel, only people and money were spent on an expedition plan, and when they realized it was no longer a situation where they could go back. If you stop now, you will have to buy Amir's misfortune and even admit that your decision was a mistake. To Wilm, who took his place by force, that was all he could do.

Gaddis in the north is in an even worse situation, with messengers coming every day wishing for assistance. I couldn't even afford to help you. So I abandoned him. Maybe that's what's causing the current situation.

(Taishou's bad government, the decision of the Red Wheel Army, and the fall of Rockbell -. No way, history, you say, repeats itself)

Behind Wilm's brain, the hour of Grohl's death passes. Betrayed by himself, who was a belly heart, he was scolded by the soldiers and the people, and died in despair. For some reason, I project myself into that figure.

According to the soldier's story, it is Noel Vossheit flying the flag of two hammers who leads a group of enemies. Soon he escaped Willa Island and seemed to rendezvous with Elgar. The ligret he was wearing on the watchman, he was probably killed. But the sentiment of sadness and so on doesn't come to mind at all. I have no sympathy at all.

"She was useless until the end. I didn't know you couldn't even keep your eyes open. But you Noel, you get in my way everywhere. That's why I told you to get rid of it then!

Wilm was always oblivious to Noel. But basically, I take it on my hand. I don't know if martial arts is somewhat superior, but it's because all I could think of was a stupid little girl. Now, Noel's rampage was stopped, and at the end of the day, he also succeeded in using admonitions to change. There was nothing to be afraid of. But that one has always survived the predicament. And he's stood in front of Wilm again.

An unspeakable anxiety wraps around Wilm's entire body.

"-Come on!"

I feel signs behind my back and turn around. Naturally, nothing. But there, I don't feel like there was anything there. Would it have been a little black figure? I remember such illusions, as if a child had hidden in the shadows to make fun of them.

"This is ridiculous! Yes, I am the man who was the general of Coimbra. As much as that, it is only Grohl's little girl, and the little girl of defeat, who leads the Red Wheel Army. There is no reason for me to lose. Something brittle once collapsed, such as an army of incoming gatherings. My hands will surely crumble!

Wilm, as he tells himself, raises his voice. If you don't, you won't have your own spirit.

(... all come reinforcements. With this madre, it's easy to bring until then. The key is how to deal with enemy attacks. It's all on my arm)

Balzac, who excels in martial arts in Amir's belly, is placed as deputy in Bahar. He had given up tank soldiers from current Chancellor Mills and had the role of manoeuvring to give the neighboring states a glimpse. That means this revolt should always be in your ear, too. You shouldn't have to send out a messenger, you should be ready to leave. He is also the same warrior as himself. I can put my trust in judgment.

There are currently five thousand defensemen in Madres. And five thousand roiers who were protecting the streets. Plus scratch everything from neighboring cities, forts, and you'll get a total of 20,000. Reports say the Red Wheel Army is about 10,000. It is inevitable that they will vandalize under the castle of Madres, but only the ruin of themselves will escape. On the dawn of suppressing chaos, you should solemnly purge the traitor and rub the blame for the demise on Gaddis. The dead have no mouth.

(You Elgar kid. Only now can we get on with it. This Wilm tells you that momentum alone can't win a battle. And send me to my father in Yellow Springs!

Wilm slammed the command wand on the floor as if to shake off the fear of springing up.
