Otome Game Mob Villain

Chapter 466

It was late in the evening when we arrived at Fort Narrows, and the Grandeks had pulled out of the area.

The area in front of and behind the fort is a plateau, but the surrounding area is surrounded by small hills with deep trees.

It seems that this is the only major road that can be used between the Grandeks and the Bardians' territory.

The only road is blocked by a long wall that rises high above the ground.

I have only seen the outside of the fort on the Internet or in tourist photos, but it feels like the "walls of Avila in Spain" that I remember from my previous life.

Even though it is from the inside, when seeing the ramparts up close, the intimidation is tremendous.

By the way, the name of the fort is derived from the fact that it is located between a flat-bottomed canyon surrounded by hills and a border point, so it is called the "narrow fort.

As we walked through the fort, we saw damage here and there that we thought was caused by the attack of the Fuchsians, who probably broke through the fort's walls.

There were also many bodies of foxmen warriors lying around.

Naturally, there were casualties on our side as well, and the fort was crowded with knights providing medical treatment and responding to the situation.

It is easy to imagine ...... how fierce the battle has been since the start of the war during the day.

The strange sight and tension in the area, as well as the smell of something I've never smelled before, a mixture of fishy and burnt smell, hit me and I was hit with a strong nausea.

"Master Rid. I had a strong feeling of nausea."

"Umm, yes. Sorry."

I was being rubbed on the back by Diana and Capella, when my father, noticing my condition, came over to me.

"Is everything alright?"

"I'm sorry, ....... I'm fine now."

I wiped my mouth with my sleeve and answered.

'This is your first time on the battlefield, so it can't be helped. But you'll get used to it,......, for better or worse. Now, let's go."

"Yes, sure".

I braced myself and followed my father's back as he walked swiftly through the fortress.

My father didn't change a single color on his face, and I could see that he was gathering information about the situation inside the fort by moving his neck and eyes.

In the same way, the more I look into the situation inside the fort, the more it tells me that this is the reality.

From time to time, I would see a knight I had seen in the book house, or a knight who had participated in the Second Order's training, injured or fallen.

Each time, my heart tightens, and at the same time, feelings of anger and hatred toward them are born inside me.

(Is this war? ......)

I muttered to myself, then turned my head forward and desperately chased after my father's back.

As I walked deeper into the fort, I saw a small tower that was a head taller than the surrounding buildings.

I could tell at a glance that the tower was more solidly built than the surrounding buildings.

I wondered if that was our destination.　As I was thinking this, my father stopped in front of the tower and looked up at the towering structure.

This is the command tower that was built so that we can see as much of the entire narrow fort as possible . When this tower falls, the fortress will be finished. Remember that.

" I understand "

I nodded, and my father entered the tower and proceeded to walk around it as if he knew it inside out.

Then he opened the door to a room.

Inside the room, there were knights in armor, and Salyers, who belonged to the Second Order's aviation corps, were lined up.

Then one of the knights stepped in front of my father and me and awed us.

'Master Riner, Master Rid. Welcome to our house".

"'Mm. Cross has endured well. I thank you."

Father said strongly and put his hand on his shoulder.

"It is a tremendous honor, sir."

Cross bowed lightly, placing his hands on his chest.

When I looked closely at everyone present, I saw that the hair of the knights and Salia, including Cross, were wet with sweat, their faces were black and dirty, and some of them had new wounds.

The armor worn by the knights had fine scratches and dents.

Small red stains were also visible, as if they had wiped blood from their bodies.

They had risked their lives to defend this fortress until just a few minutes ago.

The knights were not the gentle, calm knights you see in the mansion, but rather, they were in full battle readiness, full of deadly intent and terrifyingly dependable.

Is this what knights really are?

I gasped, but my father's face did not change one bit.

"Before I begin my review, I would like to explain the events that took place at the main house and introduce the person who will be the key to victory in this war. He is Amon Grandek."

At these words, the eyebrows of the knights twitched, and "he" became the center of attention.

Amon's shoulders shook, but he took a deep breath and looked at the knights with a strong gaze.

"I am Amon Grandek, the third son of the Grandek family," he said. I am Amon Grandek. I am ...... determined to defeat my father, Gareth Grandek, in order to bring revolution to the fox people. For this reason, I have requested the help of the Bardia family. Please, I ask that you all lend me your strength as well."

The knights' faces were filled with confusion, but soon after, the father explained the events that had taken place at the house and his future plans.

He explained how important Amon was in this war.

The knights seemed to agree and bowed to their father and Amon with a satisfied look on their faces.

Then, I'm sorry to interrupt, but please tell me everything you know about the situation from the beginning of the fighting to the present state of the war and all the damage.

"Excuse me, sir."

Cross answered my father's question, and we gathered around a large desk in the center of the room.

Cross placed a red convex piece on the map of the area around the fortress spread out on the desk and began to explain it, pointing his finger at it.

The Grandeks have deployed an army in front of the fortress, which is estimated to be about 60,000 strong, according to an aerial observation by Saria and her flying squadron.

Three enemy formations are facing the walls of the narrow fortress, and each of these formations is estimated to have about 5,000 troops, for a total force of about 15,000.

In addition, behind these three formations, there are four formations lined up vertically, each with a force of about 10,000 men.

To summarize what Saria and her group saw from the sky, the formation is said to be in a large "T-shape" against the walls of the narrow fortress.

The Bardia family had about 4,000 troops stationed at the fortress, and the number of troops we came to rescue was about 5,000.

In other words, we had to defeat 60,000 strong foxmen with less than 10,000 troops.

Looking at the numbers alone, it was a hopeless struggle.

But Father nodded calmly, "Hmm.

"We know their strength and formation. I did not expect the Grandeks to be able to move such a large force. I am amazed that you have investigated so meticulously, Cross."

No, it is thanks to the work of Saria and the others of the Second Order dispatched by Master Rid, who gathered information without regard for danger.

He turns his attention to Saria and the others.

Not expecting to be talked to, the girls said, "He......?" They looked like pigeons that had been hit by a beanpole.
