Chapter 91-: The Fall of Caladbolg Fortress

(TL By GUST)

"No, I didn't know you were here."

　Pron begins to explain why General Fafnir is here.

"My Rizzant Shogun manages the strategic supplies in this city on behalf of the deputy officer, and the general is here to ask me about the stockpile of supplies before meeting the deputy officer. I visited

　Food weapons and other items to carry to the Karado Fortress are accumulated in Bifröst, and then carried to the Karado Fortress.

　It was not a surprise to me, as I had vaguely guessed that the Lisant Company was in charge of that role.

　However, does the fact that the general himself comes to ask about the stockpile of supplies in preference to the deputy officer means that he is in dire straits?

"Therefore, I knew that everyone who sold the supplies that were very useful in the fortress defense battle was here, and I prepared this seat to thank you directly. Apparently, to everyone from before Seems to have been interested "

"Hmm. Elves and dwarves live together. I can't help but be interested."

　The general nodded naturally.

"……I see. and? Is that the end of the purpose?"

　It's hard to believe that the general of a country would make time to meet, even by chance, just to say thank you, in an emergency.

"What's the point of saying thank you, I'd like to tell you a little bit about the current state of the country. There's a transfer team in this city, isn't it a little related to you? "

"... Well, that's true."

　If Bifröst was occupied by the religion, it would be a problem for us.

　After all, the teleportation circle cannot be destroyed by the artifacts of the Age of Gods, and even if it was possible, it would be a matter of hesitation. Without the transfer team, we would be left behind at the foot of the sacred mountain beyond the Sea of ​​Trees. It's safe against the threats of the cult, but it's inconvenient when you need something you can't provide yourself.

　In addition, it cannot be stopped.

　Besides, even if the hut with the teleportation team on the Bifröst side is destroyed after we return, it's possible that the religious country won't dig it up.

　The occupation of Bifröst by the religion is only a disadvantage for us.

　That's why I was selling various useful things.

　Knowing the details of the current situation is a great story for us as well.

"I'm certainly curious about what happened to the fortress. Tell me

"Umu, okay."

　Then the general began to speak.

　Why did they come to Bifröst?

　● ○ ●

"Well, even if I say that, there's not much to talk about. After all, to put it simply, Karad Fortress has fallen into the hands of the Religion."

"That's right. I'd like to ask why it happened. "

　I was stunned and said yes.

　Many soldiers and generals are here. It is not hard to imagine that Karad Fortress fell.

"……HM"

　One general nodded gravely,

"Spirit Lord, do you know why I, the general, was in Karad Fortress?"

"...? no? You fled when a city further east was taken down?"

　While answering that, I thought it was strange.

　Even though it was an important fortress, to have a royal family and a general in a frontier land. However, considering the importance of Karad Fortress, it's not an impossible story, and it's possible that they were originally in a city east of the fortress in the first place.

　However, the general shook his head at my guess.

"No. It's a rule that in times of war, someone from the Vanaheim royal family must be stationed in Karad Fortress."

"What is that decision? … To raise the fighting spirit of the soldiers, or something like that?"

"Hmm. I'm not saying that's not the case, but the reason is small."

　There seems to be another reason, but I couldn't imagine it.

　You don't have to think about the correct answer, so listen to the answer obediently.

"why? "

"There is a sacred beast Basilisk on Mt. Oiwa, where the Karado Fortress was built. That is the reason."

　Of course, it is not possible to understand everything with just such an answer.

　For some reason, I turned my eyes away from the general, who smiled smugly and said, "I've said it," and turned my gaze to Pron.

"Yes, I will explain."

　So, when I summarize what Pron explained.

　The holy beast Basilisk seems to belong to the desert god in Vanaheim. It is said that it is one of the four sacred beasts that protect this country, with the Oiwayama of the Karado Fortress as a habitat.

　Its power is so great that in history it is said that it single-handedly repelled over 10,000 soldiers.

　If that's true, it's all very reliable.

　Although it is such a basilisk, it is originally a monster of a large lizard and cannot communicate with people.

　Although it mainly protects the fortress, Karad Fortress was originally an old fortress, and it seems that it wasn't a frontline fortress until the religious country took down the city of Locasena.

　When there is a skirmish with the religious country, it is useless to put a super-class fighting force in such a back fort. I had to get them to the front line somehow and get some help.

　The same is true for defense battles at the fort, and communication is still essential in order to cooperate with the Vanaheimr army.

　And this is the reason why General Fafnir existed.

　Vanaheim had a high level of intelligence, but was able to communicate with the basilisk who did not understand human language, and was able to give some commands.

　That is the family of the Fabnir royal family.

　Surprisingly, it seems that the royal family of this country will become descendants of the Desert God without exception.

"Some people can communicate by communicating the image by means such as telepathy, but the Holy Beast says that ... what do you say ... a little, yeah, it's really just a little, but I'm afraid. The rank is high ... "

　I sensed Pron's appearance, which seemed to be insanely difficult to say.

"In other words, is it the royal family who can communicate with each other and give orders?"

"Yes. It seems that the Holy Beast-sama is also ordered by the Desert God to obey what the royal family says..."

　What can I say, it's a holy beast with a troublesome personality.

"I see. For the time being, I understand why the general was there."

　And here comes the real issue.

　The general nodded "Umu" and began to speak.

"Sacred Beast-sama's power is so strong that it is worth confining the royal family to the frontier. Karad Fortress is a natural fortress, but even so, without Sacred Beast-sama's power, it would not have been possible to endure this far."

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

　I can make some predictions from the way he speaks.

"The Holy Beast-sama was killed by the knights of the kingdom."

"What is it !?"

　Pron shouts. There is a stunning surprise on his face.

　To that extent, the Holy Beast would have been a big presence for the people of Vanaheim.

　But the general continues.

"If that was the case, I would still continue to resist ..."

　Apparently, things were even worse.

“The corpse of the defeated Holy Beast-sama has been turned into an undead by them. It's a place to live."
