The Royal Army, having lost more than nine hundred troops in the night raid, was reduced to just over eight hundred in the grassland battle and retreated in disarray, without any calculation.

Asuka’s presentation of the commander’s head made a significant impact.

As it was when we fought the pursuit troops, she seems to be blessed with opportunities to demonstrate her prowess.

It’s just as you’d expect from a “hero.”

The Royal Army, now headless, was unable to put up an organized resistance and was thoroughly decimated.

Of course, the Lionel Squad didn’t come out unscathed either.

Sixteen dead and eight seriously injured. Those numbers are, indeed, heavy.

We understand that victory cannot be achieved without any casualties, but still.

Anyway, a victory is a victory.

We promptly returned in triumph to the city of Gaillia, where we received a warm welcome.

We beat an army of three thousand with just a thousand men, so it’s newsworthy enough.

And, moreover, we won the first battle.

It stirred up quite a lot of excitement among both the military and civilians.

“Way to go, Lionel.”

“You’re more than I imagined. Why are you in the private sector?”

I received considerable praise from General Kytes and Count Doros, as well as rewards.

The monetary reward is one thing, but I’m grateful for the sword.

You see, my favorite broadsword was confiscated when I was captured at the royal castle of Galangran.

Ever since, I’ve been using one that I got from a general’s subordinate.

As for its performance, can you imagine it’s something that can be given away for free?

The sword I received from Count Doros was a magic sword named Oracion.

About two hundred years ago, it seems it was a sword given by a lover to a hero heading for a lofty trial.

With this sword, the hero defeated a dragon and earned the title of Dragon Slayer.

Of course, it’s a legend, so we don’t know how much of it is true.

But I’ve finally come to possess a magic item.

It’s quite emotional.

It’s not something that can be bought with money.

It’s just that Masrur, where magic items are readily available, is out of the ordinary.

In addition, the facilities in the inn town that were destroyed by the Royal Army will be compensated by Count Doros.

That was the most appreciated.

Despite being for the purpose of the operation, we caused a great deal of inconvenience to the people of the inn town.

“Mama Nel. The illustrator from the newspaper is here.”

“Again?”

Raising my face from the military map, I sighed.

Ever since the triumphant return, journalists have been visiting the [Hope] clan’s cabin almost every third day.

With various excuses.

Incidentally, the sharp and handsome young man illustrated in the newspaper, Lionel, looked so different from me.

It was decorated with elegant phrases, too.

“Hello! I am Mosette from the Gaillia Newspaper!”

“What is it today, Mosette-san? We cannot plan or train in peace if you visit us almost daily.”

“Actually, our company is organizing a victory celebration, and we would like the members of [Hope] to attend.”

Cleverly persuading with her hands, the middle-aged journalist invited us.

“But didn’t we have a celebration three days ago?”

“That was hosted by the Gaillia Chamber of Commerce. This time our company is the host.”

I wanted to tell her to finish it in one go.

I really wanted to.

We have defeated the Royal Army, but they will reorganize and attack again, right?

We don’t have time to play around, right?

I don’t think I’ll be needed in the next battle.

I can’t be the only one getting all the military glory.

Probably next time, General Kytes’ main force will be deployed.

Since the core consists of troops led by Count Doros, their training level is high. With Chief of Staff Kiril assisting, they are indeed the main force of Gaillia.

Probably, an enemy of such a scale will come that we have to play this card.

They lost with three thousand, so next time it won’t be two thousand.

At least five thousand. If there are many, they will mobilize an army of around ten thousand.

In that case, it’s not a situation where the Lionel Squad of a thousand can handle everything. Perhaps there might be a role in some diversion tactics or something.

But that doesn’t mean it’s okay to play around.

“Will there be meat?”

“Of course, Meisha-san.”

“I will attend.”

And then, without knowing my inner thoughts, Meisha quickly decided to attend.

Seriously, this gluttonous priest.

“It’s okay. Let’s eat when we can. It’s a special feast after all.”

As I made a sour face, Miliaria patted my waist to console me.

“Can I borrow a dress?”

“Of course, Asuka-san.”

“I’m not good with dresses. They are hard to move in.”

“Don’t say that, Meg-san. You look beautiful.”

Mosette-san is unnecessarily pleasant.

It seems that she has learned that it works better to persuade the girls directly than to negotiate with me.

Is this also about shooting the horse first to shoot the general?

“Well, I guess I’ll go.”

“Also, we would like Salieri-san to attend as well.”

She is like a bridge between Gaillia and Masrur.

She is almost certainly invited to such occasions.

And it’s a set until you are puzzled by her usual vague expression.

From an ordinary person’s point of view, it’s unbelievable that such a vague girl is serving as a captain in the Lionel Squad.

And that she has a considerable position in the Masrur Kingdom seems even more unbelievable.

“I understand. I will pass it on.”

I promised with a wry smile.

By the way, Salieri fully understands her role, so she will never miss an opportunity to strengthen political connections.

Thus, we spent our brief peace busily.
