Reincarnation into the Barrier Master 703 - - Chapter 703 Real!?

The letter was addressed to Linos, King of Agartha. Moreover, the letter contained only one line of text.

"Agartha lends her wisdom to your kingdom.

Emperor Koranid looked at the letter for a while and then turned his attention to his retainers who were waiting around him. But they, too, did not understand the aning of the letter, and none of them opened their mouths.

"......Who brought this letter?"

Coranide mutters to no one in particular. Then a soldier standing in front of him looked up.

"Ha! My na is Lint.

"I did not ask for your na! Soone must have delivered this letter to the castle. Who is that person?

"No, ...... that's ...... what I found out, it was there."

"...... are you taunting ?"

"No, not at all! The soldiers guarding the gate brought this. I could hardly believe it myself, but the soldier said that he heard a small noise, turned around, and found this letter on the ground. The gate was guarded by two soldiers, but the other soldier reported that no one had entered the gate at that ti. There were also two more soldiers who were waiting at the gate as replacents, but even they reported that not a single person approached the gate.

"......But. In fact, this letter was placed behind the gatekeeper. Soone has secretly slipped this letter behind the soldiers' backs. Is that what you say?"

"Ha. ....... To be honest, I find it hard to believe. But it is true that the letter was placed there. We, the ones in charge of guarding the gate, have decided that it is not re nonsense, since the letter bears the na of the King of Agartha, and we have brought it before His Majesty."

Emperor Koranid again looked at the letter in his hand. He could not suddenly believe that this was a letter from the king of Agartha, even though it seed to be written in a relatively clean handwriting. First of all, the seal of state is not stamped on the letter. Usually, a letter from a king has the seal of the country under the na of the king, but this letter does not have it. The letter is only a single line, and it is not related to any detailed explanation at all. In other words, this was the simplest letter among the state docunts that Koranid had ever read. In a sense, it was extrely rude to present such a letter to the lord of a country, even if it was lowly. It is true that the text alone seems to have been made by so townspeople, and it would be easy to conclude that this was a prank by soone. However, he could not believe that this short letter was a re prank.

"What do you think of this?"

He opened his mouth to his retainers who were waiting around him. They were all silent, but then the man who was the elder among them slowly opened his mouth.

"I think you can be sure that this is a letter from Agartha.

"What's the reason?"

Yes. First of all, there is no possibility that this letter is a ploy from the enemy. It is too poor a ans of disturbing and upsetting us. Secondly, the possibility that this is a prank ...... by our subjects is also unlikely. The reason is that our subjects know that Karza Castle is under siege and that 10,000 advance troops of the Imperial Army have gone into battle, but they do not know that Your Majesty has requested reinforcents from Heedata and Agartha. I think it safe to assu that this letter is from the King of Agartha.

What about the distance between our country and Agartha?

Yes. This is a matter of conjecture on my part, but it is likely that the letter was delivered by so ans of communication, such as birds.

"Do you think that Agartha has the sa ans of sending information to each other using pigeons as we do?"

I don't know. However, the speed of movent of the Royal Army of Agartha far surpasses that of other nations. Of course, our excellent horses are one of the reasons for this, but I do not think they can move with the lightning speed that I have heard rumors about. I think it is safe to assu that Agartha has the ans to exchange information as fast as or faster than our country. Nevertheless, it will take a considerable amount of ti to prepare a letter of reply. Moreover, even if a letter of state were to be prepared quickly, it would be a very ostentatious docunt. It would take ti to transport it to our country. Then, we can conclude that this letter is from the King of Agartha, who wrote only the matter to inform our country as soon as possible.

It was a very reasonable answer. Even if the letters in this letter were not written by the King Agartha himself, it would be enough to have them written by soone who was hidden in this empire, exchanging only information. The question remains as to how he could have left this letter behind without the soldiers noticing, but first of all, he was convinced that it was from Agartha.

"Agartha is not an army, but a wisdom ......? If so, it ans that Agartha's army will not move.

Koranid muttered and nodded broadly, as if he were trying to convince himself.

"So, I guess we can't count on the army of the Heedatians either.

He stood up from his chair with an exasperated look on his face.

"We'll have to send additional reinforcents."

Koranid's eyes twinkled as he addressed his retainers who were waiting around him. The n knew that this was a habit they had when their blood was hot. At a ti like this, interrupting the conversation would have caused further complications, so they all remained silent with their heads bowed.

"Tell the Third and Fifth Armies to leave within two days. Join up with the advance party of 10,000 and destroy the NONOs as soon as possible. The total force will be 20,000 n. That should be enough to destroy them. We must strike them before Elsmo's reinforcents arrive! When the NONOs are destroyed, you will take your entire army to renovate the castle of KHARZA! Then Elsmo's army will lose its will to fight and will retreat to its own land. The commander-in-chief will be Boot.

"Please wait."

One of the retainers raised his voice. Koranid was annoyed at being interrupted and glared hatefully at the one who opened his mouth.

He looked at the young man with an intelligent face. He opens his mouth to Coranide in a tone of admonition.

"I am impressed with your decision to send reinforcents, Your Highness. However, please do not appoint Mr. Boot to the position of commander-in-chief.

Why?

"Mr. Boot has a lot of blood in his veins and tends to let his emotions get the better of him."

I know. That's why I'm sending him to the boot.

"......"

"With Boot, we will be able to keep the NONOs from thinking of crossing swords with our country for the next fifty years."

"So, Your Majesty, you are willing to lose your life for nothing?"

I didn't say that. The bloodlust of Bhutto is well known to the n of NONO. Hopefully, the NONOs will hear Booto's na and pull him out of there. I'm hoping for that, too."

He lifted his chin quickly, as if to say, "You got it? No one opened their mouths to him.
