Episode 37-Mission (3)

Isaac’s army moved north at high speed.

The enemies, united in the name of Gad, stopped Isaac, but they could not do him much harm.

Isaac knew everything about his opponent’s village beforehand.

The enemy was quickly annihilated by putting in the right amount of power to match the number of enemies, and the villages of a size that could not be dealt with by their size were left alone.

The warriors of Gad were not brave enough to come out and reclaim another village.

If you moderately conquer all the surrounding villages and leave missionaries to reform them, you will slowly be eroded by the changing atmosphere of the surrounding villages.

Since missionaries were hiding even in villages with strong warriors, it wasn’t too difficult to reform them from within.

As soon as Isaac started his march, people all cheered up Isaac at the sight of the northern village falling down in an instant.

After all, Isaac, I knew he could do it, and if it wasn’t him, no one would.

Well, people said that, but Isaac didn’t think so.

He was able to capture the northern town not because he was handsome.

He simply received information from the evangelist in the northern village and acted rationally based on that information.

It was a great thing to do things in a way that other people couldn’t think of, but he didn’t think that this was a great thing.

At least, if there was one thing he could be highly praised for compared to other people, it was all about the stinger he made in his spleen.

The poison needle made by applying the plants specially formulated by him could also be fired using the needle he specially made. He did a very good job with the role he had to deal with.

It would be fine if I was praised for making a poison needle, but I wasn’t used to being praised like this for something anyone could do.

“Captain, it seems unreasonable to enter this way anymore. People from the city of Gad have come down here to wait.”

“How are the missionaries doing?”

“Yes, Gad’s soldiers are nearby, so they can’t preach, but they say they’re lying flat and waiting for this storm to pass.”

“Tell them to wait a little longer. We’ll be taking over those villages soon.”

Isaac’s soldiers had started with 100 when he first went north, but his forces had swelled to 200 before he knew it.

He has seldom fought a proper battle, as many have fallen to the evangelists, but Isaac has certainly had many.

It was normal for his men to decrease as much as he fought, but his men rather increased.

How did this happen?

This was related to the activities of the evangelists.

Compared to Isaac, they were not recognized for their role, but they solved Lemfra’s words in the village, induced the situation to be favorable to Lemfra, and when Isaac took over the village, those who only heard Lemfra in words As he joined Isaac, he slowly called Isaac’s army out.

Since the number of soldiers gathered like that reached 100, it was possible to operate 200 soldiers by combining the existing 100 soldiers.

As the Lempria Empire introduced the bow first, the North also developed and used a weapon called a bow, so there was no need for additional training.

‘I’ll have to come up with another strategy from here.’

For the next 10 villages, no matter how Gad’s soldiers were guarding them, missionaries were stationed there.

However, if you go further than that, there are villages where missionaries are treated as heretics and are dying.

Since Gad’s influence is very strong, it is impossible to overcome it by obtaining the village’s surrender as it is now.

‘Depending on the situation, I might have to kill all the villagers.’

There are so many people who have committed serious sins by being deceived by the devil called Gad.

They are already possessed by demons and will continue to sin against Lemfra.

It would be much better to kill him than to let him live like that.

Exterminating a village was a different level of difficulty than incorporating a moderately cheery village.

Think about it.

How many people in this world can endure without rebelling when the enemy is trying to kill me right in front of my eyes.

If it is 100, I will do my best to resist in order to live to 100.

If even one person per village dies while suppressing such a rebellion, that alone will reduce Isaac’s power.

“Captain, it looks like we can’t pass any more.”

A woman from Ifritia Village said to Isaac.

She was tall like a Kinki tribe and was from the central village, but she was a strong-willed woman who admired the rumors of Isaac and ran all the way to the north to help him.

Her judgment was correct.

It was impossible to break through the power of God, which was created by combining dozens of villages in a place where you could no longer ask for help from the locals.

Other subordinates are also pinning their hopes on Isaac being next to them, but if they were ordinary humans like themselves, they would certainly have wanted to retreat.

“I think so too. I’ll have to think of a good number.”

“I dare say, how about asking the capital for help?”

“To the capital?”

“Yes, Sir Isaac is the centurion of the Lempria Empire. If we inform the capital that the centurion is suffering in the north like this, His Majesty the Emperor will surely take action.”

It was a way to pay off.

There was no reason for the emperor to be cold to a centurion who occupied the north for the sake of his country and God.

Even if he couldn’t help, it only took him the time it took to get there.

“Arena, let you come and go.”

Isaac looked at the Kinki woman as he spoke, and she looked at Isaac as if she was dumbfounded.

“Of course I’m willing to go with you, but it would be disrespectful to His Majesty the Emperor to go alone. I’m on my way to ask the Emperor, not anyone else. “

Upon reflection, she was right.

“Okay. I’ll listen to you.”

Isaac led his own army to a town bordering the North.

If he had taken all his troops with him to meet the emperor, he would have almost collapsed with just one movement of his hat.

So he moved his body as he placed all but one of his troops in the village to guide him.

“Never leave this place. No matter how much the enemy provokes you, you must not leave the village.”

“I understand. Captain.”

Isaac left his army in the care of the other Ten Captains and went down south.

He had come a long way from the Lempria Empire, and it took quite a long time to get to the capital from the northern part of the Lempria Empire, so he was able to meet the emperor only after two days of walking.

It wasn’t that difficult to get an audience with the emperor.

Even the emperor was usually talking with the philosophers of Lemfra Village, so it was possible to meet the emperor without losing a single step.

“Who are you?”

Lempria, who ascended to the throne of the emperor, became very polite.

Since her main job has changed from war and conquest to country work, she has no choice but to change her personality accordingly.

“This is Isaac from the North.”

“Isaac?”

The answer sprang from philosophers other than Lempria.

“Are you really Isaac? A hero of the North?”

People around him, including philosophers, rushed to Isaac in an instant.

‘I think I know why Lady Catria said that those in power hate heroes.’

Why don’t you feel that you are likely to lose power to get some jealousy even if you only lose your interest?

“Get out of the way, everyone. This man has business with me.”

Tall and very handsome.

A man with such great skills that he is called a hero in the North.

He was a talent that should not be lost no matter what, but he did not want to lose power to him.

‘There is a good way.’

She had a very sensible method that was told by her goddess of wisdom.
