Novel Bin Chapter 183
CHAPTER 183 – THE BATTLE IN HANYA, THE SECOND ROUND
Hanya had lost its function as a fortress with one attack from Eleanor and turned the battle into a melee .
There’s still the difference between the number of soldiers, but Selene’s charging attacks completely overcame that .
Their side completely lost the will to fight after the soldiers surged in the opened hole of Hanya and fell into a total collapse .
Other than the few soldiers who have surrendered, the others have retreated from Hanya .
And Selene tried to charge towards them as well .
Charge, charge, and charge .
As if that was the only thing that she could do, Selene tried to faithfully execute that action .
「Don’t chase them, Selene!」
I shouted and stopped her .
My voice multiplied 777x passed through the battlefield clearly and reached her ears .
Selene stopped to a still .
I went off the palanquin and stood in front of her .
I removed the aura I clad myself with and returned to my appearance from King Aegina’s .
「Good job . This is enough」
「I don’t need to chase after them?」
「Some should be let off as a messenger . So that they would know exactly what happened, that this troops are led by King Aegina」
「Un, I got it」
Selene obediently nodded . It’s exactly the opposite from just a while ago .
She sheathed her sword and sighed .
Is it from physical fatigue or her tension was loosened, Selene staggered .
I caught her in an embrace when she was about to fall down .
「Thank youーーah!」
Selene pushed me away in panic .
She got out from my embrace once, but she staggered and fell into my embrace in the end .
「What’s the matter?」
「Because, Shou is, uhm……that person’s……」
「Un?」
That person? Who?
……ahh, Helene huh .
Selene calls me Shou .
It’s because I disguised myself using my aura when I first appeared in front of her .
At that time, I’m carrying Helene by my side and swung the Demon Sword .
I see, Selene was charmed by that huh .
I embraced her tighter .
「Good job」
「……un」
Selene’s cheeks blushed and timidly looked down .
And, she reservedly placed her forehead on my chest .
“How cute, maybe I should reward her some more”ーーbut when I was thinking of that .
Selene’s body gave away .
She collapsed just like a puppet with its strings cut .
I caught her in an embrace and peeked at her face .
Her eyes were shut and looked asleep .
「You got tired huh……good job」
It looks like the reward will be for the next time .
I carried her and took out the Magic Cottage .
I let her rest inside .
When I went out, one soldier was waiting .
It’s a male soldier, but he’s familiar .
I took off the aura that I applied .
The male soldier turned to a woman .
Slave troops, second platoon leader, Neora Comenena .
I used my aura to change her appearance and made her mix into Selene’s side .
「Good job . You did great」
「Was that alright?」
「I was watching even from far away . Good job on gathering the soldiers in front of Selene just like I asked you to」
「Yes……」
Neora was somewhat looking down but she looks happy .
To let Selene gain confidence, there was a need to make a wall as thick as possible for her to breakthrough .
On top of that, a wall that was not weakened .
It is very easy for me or Nana, and my other capable women to make weakened soldiers line up in front of Selene . It’s a piece of cake to hold back when the opponents are only soldier level .
However, if it were like that, then there would be no meaning . It was important to line up uninjured enemy soldiers in front of her as much as possible .
And so, there’s Neora’s turn .
She has a mysterious skill .
She can use a skill that would make her opponent’s force against them and guide it to the direction she wishes to .
Even I lost my balance when I saw it for the first time .
I used that .
I disguised Neora and made her go to Selene’s side .
And using that skill, she guided the soldiers towards Selene without injury .
She sent soldiers after soldiers endlessly towards her .
She continued to guide the enemy soldiers so that Selene would need to fight against them nonstop .
And Selene cut down all of those enemy soldiers .
She broke through a thick wall of enemy soldiers that was thicker than normal only using her own skill .
I did not lend her a hand at all . That made me happy the most .
That happiness completely turned into elation .
I gave orders to the nearby soldier .
It’s not one of the slave soldiers nor one of my women . I ordered that ordinary soldier to contact Delfina, to tell her to occupy Hanya .
And, I turned to Neora .
「Neora, are you tired?」
「Not at all . I’m fine」
「I see . Then, I have another job for you」
「Yes! Please ask me anything!」
Neora replied in an army salute just like the other slave soldiers .
「Not that . Accompany me」
「Kakeru-sama’s……ah……!」
Neora realized the meaning of that and blushed .
「Good girl」
I wrapped my arms around Neora’s back and knees and carried her to another room inside the Magic cottage .
I loved her on the bed for doing the best job .
☆
At night, on the outskirts of Hanya .
I drew out Eleanor who was stabbed into the ground .
I’m a kilometer away from Hanya . After that throwing attack pierced through the fortress, she continued to fly for another kilometer .
『You’re late . What were you doing leaving me here』
「I made love with Neora」
『I do not know whether you’re overprotective or a spartan educator』
「Who knows . But, there’s only one thing I can say」
『What?』
「It’s that Selene has become more of a good woman」
『I shall make a prediction as well』
「Un?」
『After you and your women are gone, this world will be in hell . Rebounds would always come after a golden era』
It’s like that huh .
「Well, that doesn’t matter right now . Only what’s in front of me right now does」
『I see, what’s in front of you huh』
I looked far ahead .
At the horizon within the darkness of the night . I could see a faint sand smoke being rolled up .
「As I’ve thought . They launched a night attack huh」
『Of course they would . If you look at our numbers, it is normal for them to counterattack while we are rebuilding our strength』
「How many are there?」
『More or less, about 3000 . Ahh, I’ll also add this . I feel that this night attack also includes an additional pursuit attack』
「I see」
I raised Eleanor .
How interesting . A well-prepared enemy of 3000 .
It’s only normal to immediately take back what was taken from you .
But too bad, you won’t get through here .
『Umu . I understand now . You are overprotective after all』
「……」
『After all, you would go against an army of 3000 soldiers just for the safety of two women』
I flicked Eleanor who said that enjoyingly with a finger .
It’s exactly as she says, but it’s still annoying hearing it from her .
「You don’t want to?」
『Not at all? I don’t have complaints as long as you use me with your full strength』
「What a cheap woman, you are」
『Kukuku, that’s exactly right . I am nothing but a cheap woman just for you』
Eleanor laughed even more happily .
This girl, she’s also a good woman . I won’t tell her though .
I gripped her hilt tightly and took a deep breath .
I sharpened my eyes and looked at the enemy in front of me .
「Let’s go」
『Umu』
The Battle of Hanya, the second round .
The battle that made Eleanor satisfied ended during the night without anyone knowing .
Not even Selene nor Neora .
They were able to rest their bodies peacefully, to prepare for the next fight .
