Chapter 74: Return

Sirius checked out Windwall.

The trail to Windwall touches the guts of the Empire.

If Windwall is taken, the Empire dies.

“Brothers and sisters, at the moment we rewrite historical past. Yulia, that depraved and bloodthirsty tyrant, has stained this land with poverty and concern via her greed.”

Sirius recalled the previous.

The reminiscence of ravenous on the Haven Orphanage.

Regardless of what number of occasions he pleaded, the Empire deserted the orphanage.

“Keep in mind our family and friends who perished below the Empire’s oppression. Whereas we starved and shivered within the chilly, they had been merely consuming wine in entrance of their heat fireplaces.”

The commander of the anti-Empire forces, Sirius, couldn’t forgive the Empire.

“Saintness of Vengeance, bless us!”

The saintess, Eileen, stepped ahead.

And quietly prayed.

“The starlight is watching over us. We won’t lose our approach even within the darkness!”

Sirius spoke.

“Everybody, advance! Battle till our swords pierce the tyrant’s coronary heart, till our spears convey down her minions! Till freedom spreads throughout this land, till the starlight proclaims our victory!”

The anti-Empire forces superior.

The tide had already turned.

The Empire may by no means bear the load of its karma.

​​***

“Hmm. What a load of nonsense.”

Yulia remarked merely.

From atop her tank, she assessed the battlefield.

Troops, deprived.

Morale, damaged.

Righteous trigger, misplaced.

Ascal, gone.

Yulia was no idiot.

This conflict was doubtless unwinnable.

Nonetheless, she selected to be right here as a result of it was higher to know at a slight probability than to face a sluggish and sure demise.

“Prime Minister Debrue, the place is our Empire’s Satan?”

“He fled.”

“How… How can this be? With out him, what are we to do…”

How laughable.

For a normal to be so weak.

The Empire had been rotting from the core since Yulia grew to become Empress. Regardless of how competent Yulia was, she couldn’t revive a decayed tree.

‘If solely I had discovered Ascal slightly sooner.’

Would she have been capable of save the Empire then?

This was a time too late for remorse.

​Yulia had already let Ascal go.

She wished him to dwell fortunately.

However a small a part of her hoped.

That on this disaster, he would seem like a hero.

‘Ascal. What are you doing proper now?’

Yulia slowly opened her eyes.

“As anticipated, there’s no approach he would… What, what’s that?”

There was one thing within the sky.

A white horse with wings and an enormous white dragon had been flying within the sky!

“Isn’t that… the legendary Pegasus?”

“Then, is that the legendary White Dragon?”

Like youngsters, everybody regarded up on the sky.

Each the Empire and anti-Empire forces stared dumbfounded on the sky.

Why on earth are there Pegasus and White Dragon right here?Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the most recent updates

After which, a tune started to be heard.

A voice amplified by a mana stone echoed of their ears.

「Bellum cessate, fratres, pax sit in terris」

It was a phenomenal lady’s voice.

However then.

“She actually can’t sing…”

“Wow, that’s horrible…”

They misplaced their energy.

The adrenaline that had been surging drained away at this ridiculous sight.

And so.

Each side misplaced the timing to advance.

​​***

“We’ll arrive at Windwall quickly! Ascal, what ought to I do?”

“You probably have nothing to do, simply sing to chill out.”

“Shall I?”

Ascal took out the mana stone amplifier he had sneaked from Bernstein and positioned it close to Sushia.

Due to that, everybody heard Sushia’s tune.

It was a horrible singing voice.

“Hihing!”

Fer expressed its ache.

Due to that, Ascal nearly fell from the sky.

“However what’s our purpose, Ascal? What can we do by getting concerned on this conflict now?”

“Have some peanuts, Bernstein.”

“Thanks, Miss Sushia.”

Ascal checked out Yulia.

“…Lia.”

“Sure, it’s me. Yulia, your Lia.”

“I’ve realized.”

“Inform me. Sure, maintain speaking. You mustn’t lose consciousness.”

Ascal spoke with a fading voice.

“The right way to escape from the Empire. This time, for certain.”

“Even at this level, you’re speaking about operating away once more… you’re actually constant.”

Yulia let loose a hole snicker.

“Fantastic. Preserve operating, Ascal. Regardless of the place you flee, I’ll discover you dozens, tons of of occasions.”

Positively.

“…Ascal?”

“He’s gone. He’s left us.”

Sushia mentioned calmly.

“I’ll comply with him. I’ll die with him.”

“No. You must escape.”

“What’s the usage of escaping now?”

“It issues.”

Above Sushia’s head as she spoke, the starlight was shining. It was an unusually brilliant mild.

“Let’s attempt yet one more time. Everybody, let’s begin over and do it collectively.”

​​***

“Gasp!”

Ascal awoke.

His entire physique was drenched in sweat. It felt like he had been having a nightmare.

His reminiscence was hazy. However the thought that he completely needed to slay the dragon remained clear.

As he regarded round, he was stunned.

There have been so many individuals.

“He’s awake!”

“He’s lastly awake!”

Ascal regarded round.

Earlier than him stood the Crown Prince, Kain, Devon, Laika, Jerobe, Serena, and Yulia. Together with others.

Elenia and Sushia knelt behind, arms raised.

“You didn’t get up for an entire week. We had been so anxious, pondering you had been lifeless!”

The Crown Prince mentioned with concern.

“In fact, if we’re speaking about who anxious essentially the most, it could be your help right here.”

“I anxious loads too, you recognize.”

Serena grumbled.

“…Lia?”

Lia, half-collapsed, was sleeping whereas holding onto Ascal’s mattress.

Then, Lia opened her eyes.

“Ascal.”

“Lia. Good timing. I’ve one thing to say.”

“…Sure?”

Lia regarded confused.

“The following Minister of Analysis is you. I’ll retire after slaying the dragon. I spotted {that a} minister who appoints a successor can legally retire from the Empire.”

“Hahaha! The very first thing you say after waking up is retirement! Actually such as you!”

“That, that place is an excessive amount of for me.”

“Ah, no vetoes allowed.”

The Crown Prince laughed.

“Effectively, you had been going to step down as Minister of Analysis quickly anyway.”

“Actually? I hope my subsequent place isn’t the guillotine.”

“Such jokes. You’ll prefer it, I’m certain.”

The Crown Prince hid the appointment letter for the Prime minister behind his again.

It is likely to be too stimulating to indicate to a recovering affected person.

​​***

Ascal resumed his ministerial duties after a very long time.

“This will’t be. Why is that this work really easy?”

Oddly sufficient, the work was simple.

It felt like an skilled veteran of over ten years had taken over his physique.

​***

Ascal swung his sword.

Seeing this, Lia spoke.

“…I didn’t count on you to be so expert.”

Then Lia, holding a sword, mentioned,

“I’ll assist you to along with your coaching.”

“It’ll simply sully your eyes.”

“No. Ascal, you’re very expert proper now. It’s as if, with only a small push, you can break via a wall.”

“…A wall?”

Lia’s voice modified.

“You’re near turning into a Swordmaster, Ascal.”

Ascal squinted.

“The evil spirit hasn’t left, I see.”

“Sure. Name me that if you would like. It doesn’t matter. I’m much more helpful for coaching than that different one. Come at me, Ascal.”

“Die, evil spirit!”

Yulia sighed.

Then, she smiled softly.
