Whisper, whisper.
We successfully held the defense line today and allowed the soldiers to take a break.
Everything was as usual. And yet.
“You laid hands on the prisoners? They’re barbarians. Ah, you think there’s no point in making a truce with barbarians, right?”
“……”
The guards in charge of the prisoners were made to sit in seiza.
After an endless lecture, the General.
The guards would be subjected to interrogation, their bodies reduced to a state near death.
“General?! We didn’t do anything!”
“You slept together? Do you expect me to believe that? Come up with a better lie under torture.”
“Generaaaal…”
The guards were taken away by the General’s escort.
His desperate resistance was in vain.
To the Torture Chamber.
The Torture Chamber, anticipating torture after a long time, busily prepared well-maintained torture instruments.
“Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”
Murmur, murmur.
Screams echoed from the Torture Chamber.
The resting soldiers shared information, wondering what had happened.
And then, from the General’s caretaker, they were told that an act of sexual intercourse had occurred with a barbarian prisoner of war.
Murmur, murmur! Murmur, murmur!
With barbarians as dark as ink?!!
Are the children dark-skinned too?
The soldiers enthusiastically spread their opinions and inferences on this topic, as if they had witnessed it themselves.
“…Who was it that blabbed?”
The General was already troubled enough by the epidemic.
Perhaps the lack of medicine to cure the illness was a conspiracy from the homeland.
Perhaps political enemies were sending assassins.
And now, the insufficient supervision of subordinates who mistreated the prisoners.
“What should we do? Defending alone won’t erase this blunder. We need merit. Yes, we desperately need merit right now… Mutter, mutter, mutter… Crush, crush, kill, kill.”
His voice, initially filled with anxiety and fear, turned into a constant repetition of “kill” as he recalled the faces and names of those who might become political enemies, those who stood in his way, and vowed to drag them down with him.
“……”
The General’s escort guards wished for their shift change to come quickly.
The muffled sounds of “kill, kill” from behind them left them trembling and in a most unpleasant mood.
Oh, you poor escort guards. Those were some tough times for you ♪
Rayos, the root cause, watched from among the soldiers.
Screams could be heard from the Torture Chamber.
Rayos moved, desperately suppressing his laughter.
Well then, I enjoyed myself with the female prisoner.
The blame was placed on the guards.
Next, the cafeteria.
“……Glance.”
Everyone seemed busy chatting.
It was easy to slip sleeping pills into the large pot of soup for dinner. ♪
And then, if I make the tanned-skinned ones attack during dinner~, Guhuhu ♪♪
In the ensuing melee, I can have woman after woman~~ ♪♪
Stealthily… rustle, rustle…
Rayos finished his business safely in the cafeteria.
He seized the moment when the soldiers watching the enemy’s movements were distracted.
And headed into the forest where the enemy lurked.
“…Heehee.”
“Ngh!? Gaagi”
“? …N?!”
They couldn’t visually confirm my Astral Body.
I unilaterally assassinated the enemy patrol soldiers. ♪
Me, so strong! This continued for several tens of minutes ♪
Finally, I discovered the enemy’s main stronghold, a village ♪ I can communicate with them, somewhat.
If I launch a night raid after dinner and drag them out, there won’t be any problems, right~~ ♪♪
How long until night falls~~ ♪?
Rayos sang this in his mind, waiting for the time to be right.
The Southwest Front.
The defense line that would be broken today, the worst possible outcome.
The General, plagued by nightmares, attempted to escape using a shadow warrior. However, a barbarian’s hand axe unfortunately struck his back, and he, bleeding profusely and with a stiffening body, was crushed to death amidst the panicked retreat of his own forces.
“This… this isn’t how it was supposed to go, Guu, Ah, Hah, Gaaah,…”
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
