Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 680

The long winter has passed and spring is in the air.

As evidence, it is not that cold even if you fly in a car in the sky. I was worried that I would get hypothermia if I stayed in the sky for too long with the cold wind blowing, as I had to keep up with the speed of the horse, but it turned out to be a groundless worry.

The return journey was uneventful. While the ignorant ones riding horses and working hard to close the distance, we leisurely roamed the skies and patrolled. We had lunch with food prepared in advance and moved on. When the sun went down, we came down and camped. It was a smooth journey, to the point where the most serious incident among the routine was that the so-called escorts couldn’t even cook properly.

But that was a bit big.

“You guys are really going to finish all your training and come here and look for me?”

You’ve really grown a lot.

These guys all ate something wrong when they were young, so their sense of taste was ruined. They didn’t even look at the ingredients and spices that they had brought with them and just tried to boil the meat in plain water. It’s even funnier that they thought they would have plenty of drinking water because there was a river nearby, so they just boiled the meat and tried to throw away the water.

Even though they didn’t know what they did wrong and were still bumbling around, I grabbed the back of their necks without realizing it. I made a stew by throwing together a bunch of things in a hurry, but it was mind-boggling to think that this nonsense would continue for a few days.

As I mentioned earlier, there really wasn’t any problem, except for the huge uproar over having to come up with a curriculum that would cram the kids with basic cooking knowledge from day one.

It means that he didn’t even encounter the common thief. Considering the current state of the kingdom, it wasn’t an easy task.

No matter how well you live, war eats away at a country. I can boast about this because I remember the time when I encountered bandits every time I took a step forward. Even now, I volunteer to serve as an aerial reconnaissance plane to keep up with the marching speed of the land dogs.

“Is it hibernating because the effects of winter haven’t completely gone away yet…?”

It’s gotten a lot warmer now, you know.

The journey was smooth, even though I muttered to myself and failed to come up with a plausible hypothesis.

Until we face the Allied Forces, the carcinogens of the forgotten war.

It was the third day after I left the capital that I came into view of a large campsite as I went out to scout out the terrain, overcoming the drowsiness brought on by the exquisite harmony of the warm sunlight and cool breeze pouring down from the sun high in the sky.

At first, I thought they were the Royal Army, since I didn’t know all the flags of the Itisel army by heart, but as I got closer, I could see unfamiliar uniforms. The size of the camp, located on the edge of a mountainside and extending from the plains to the forest, was considerable.

Apart from the question of why they were here, it was fine up until that point.

The trouble started when one of the guys found a car and started harassing it.

[Master, I think they’re trying to shoot an arrow?]

“I’m not the only one who sees it that way?”

Despite the considerable distance, I can see some soldiers moving around cautiously, looking for longbows in a hurry. Since they probably wouldn’t see me in my car, I was able to understand that behavior.

There was no need to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, so I started to circle around while lowering my altitude after keeping a reasonable distance. From experience, when I got down to a level where I could be identified, the archers who were holding their bows changed their movements as I expected.

I wanted to just retreat, but if we continued like this, our paths would overlap, and the Laughing Bell party wasn’t even bothering to show off their horns, so if I approached without knowing, I knew that a huge party would follow, so I approached the campsite while slowing down as much as possible.

Then, the soldiers who had put down their bows suddenly shot an arrow at me as they brought a knight from somewhere.

At first, I thought it was some kind of arrow. Even if that were true, there was no reason for it to shoot at me. But since even the regular soldiers could identify me, it was hard to believe that a knight would really shoot an arrow.

“That bastard?”

Even the arrow shot that way flew very accurately, aiming for my left shoulder. After catching it, I checked the arrowhead just in case, but it was an arrow that I knew was used to kill people.

They say it was shot on purpose.

In that short moment, so many thoughts flashed through my head. In the meantime, the car arrived at the guy’s campsite as I instructed and slowly prepared to land.

I secretly hoped he would fire one more shot, but unfortunately that didn’t happen. Still, it wasn’t that hard to find the guy who shot me in the crowd that slowly gathered while the car safely landed, so I lightly jumped off the back of the car and headed straight for him.

“Excuse me, you showed up out of nowhere. I thought you were a wild dragon… Kyaak?!”

And with a sly smile, I shot the arrow I was holding into the shoulder of the guy who was making excuses. After seeing the arrow I had shot with all my might like a dart pierce through the guy’s shoulder blade and make his tail stand up stiffly, I felt a little better.

“I originally intended to put it in the useless eyeball, but I felt so sorry for the kid who woke up with a cripple eyeball that I let it slide.”

But feeling relieved and feeling relieved are two different things.

“If your eyesight is bad, wear glasses, you punk.”

So, I swung my fist at the jaw of the guy who was busy screaming, regardless of whether the soldiers around him were drawing their weapons or not.

◈

Eldmia, of course, did not know, but the Allied forces that had set up camp and were staying there had come as a garrison in the direction of Levien, but were exhausted from the situation where they could not do anything as they pleased, and were on their way to the Eastern Front.

In fact, even if they had known, they would have cursed at them for going around the capital when they had already established a supply route in cooperation with one of the cities of the Demonic Clan. However, they had their own reasons for doing so, as they had gathered some information from the front lines under the pretext of being a garrison force.

It’s not that I’m being honest. I just didn’t want to fight a desperate battle in the city of the Demons who had just started building their defense line.

However, apart from the shameful fact, it is true that they found their own solution by using the remaining brains they had honed since their own country.

The garrison’s ultimate goal was to maintain public order, so they concluded that they could sneak around and head to the east, where stability had already begun, under the pretext of maintaining public order within Itisel rather than in the occupied territory.

Even in this case, unlike stationary garrisoning in an occupied territory, there is a steady and irregular loss of materials. This can even be used as an excuse to requisition!

However, they could not just recruit indiscriminately and had to have achievements such as ‘eliminating all the bandits in the area’ to back it up, but the Allied Forces of the Kingdoms were proud to be professionals among professionals in that regard. They worked hard to make excuses and sometimes even eliminated real bandits to build up their achievements. Until yesterday, the process had been extremely smooth.

The next day, after having lunch with the satisfaction of having worked so hard to earn money, I witness a dreaded dragon flying in from afar.

At first, I was wary because I thought it was a real wild dragon, but then I found out that there was a person riding it, so I was careful and even called a knight. As expected of soldiers who only do what they have to do, they did their duty.

The problem was with the article.

In fact, the issue of profit distribution that the Allied Forces are talking about is meaningless to the soldiers. Rather, it is a hundred times better for the garrison troops to die in a half-hearted fight. It was sufficient pay for those who only had to take care of themselves.

It is always the nobles and knights who grind their teeth for money.

They hated the dragon knights who interfered with their business. They hated them so much that it was common practice to shoot arrows at them, claiming that they mistook them for monsters.

This time it was the same. I just thought they came back to cause trouble again and repeated the same routine.

In this way, the everyday became extraordinary.

“You fucking idiot, you little shit with just one hole in your shoulder. Where’s the captain? Is this kid the captain?”

The special arrows, specially made for the strong bows to withstand the strength of knights who know how to use the aura, were extremely strong. They were so strong that even if a dragon knight suddenly appeared and sank his teeth into the knight’s shoulder and dragged the knight around while holding it like a handle, it would not break.

As a result, the camp was in chaos due to the screams of the knights. Some people thought they were being attacked and grabbed their weapons, while others ran hard to report to the commander.

But there was no one who could give the Dragon Knight a proper answer or stop him.

“How is it that there is not a single person who gives a proper answer···”

The soldiers just watch him as he roams the camp at will. He has already lost his will to fight at this point, as he is so confident that he can neutralize and drag a knight around.

Unable to stop himself from stretching his legs, the dragon knight walked around the camp as if it were his own front yard, looking for the commander.

But what he discovered was not the commander, but the Allied Forces’ ‘achievement’ yesterday.

“···What is this?”

The steps of the dragon knight stopped abruptly as he discovered the embers and bloody corpses that had not yet been extinguished amidst the rubble of a building that he had thought was just a simple ruin mixed with numerous tents. It was at that moment that a non-answer came out from among the soldiers who had been pretending to follow him with their weapons in hand, even though they could not stop him.

“That’s what I want to say. Even though Itisel is in control of this war, how can we accept the contempt shown towards the Allied Forces who are working hard to maintain order in Itisel…”

The crowd naturally parted and the knights appeared. The one in front was clearly wearing the uniform of a commander, but the dragon knight’s gaze never left the ruins.

“Let me ask you just one thing.”

Instead, only a voice that had settled somewhere came out of his mouth.

“What happened here that caused a fight?”

As he said that, no one noticed that his other hand, not holding the arrow, was reaching for the sword at his waist.
