Until a few years ago Colonel Abraham was only a normal diocre imperial soldier.
However, his life changed completely after he obtained a certain sothing.
A magic sword.
Its na is Blut [TLN: Kanji read Blood Life or Blood Core / Edit2: German for Blood].
A single-edged black sword with a simple ability to physically strengthen its user.
However, this simple ability is much stronger than that of other magic swords of the sa kind. By utilizing its ability, Abraham rose to the rank of Colonel.
But in exchange, Abrahams personality has changed for the worse.
Bloodnot enough blood!
Inside a hut that the Dominion Army confined him in, Abraham shouts.
Right now, the magic sword has been confiscated from him and he is under house arrest.
Due to his eerie personality, no soldier from the Dominion dares to approach this place. However, today they were ordered to release him.
Colonel Abraham. You have an order.
Order? Screw that! Give back my sword!!
Saying so, Abraham grabs the ssenger by the neck and squeezes.
The ssenger couldnt breathe and was about to lose consciousness but when he saw that another soldier had carried Brute into the hut, he let the ssenger go.
OOH.! My dear friend!
When Abraham picked up Brute, he rubbed his cheek against its blade with an ecstatic look.
While distancing himself from that Abraham, the ssenger relays the order.
Ugh.you shall lead a cavalry unit to the Empires border! Our princess is trying to escape there! Your order is to stop her!
Stop? If I raise my hand then it would be a massacre though?
It doesnt matter! Killing her is fine, your sole mission is to prevent her from crossing the border!
Fu, Fufufu.princesss blood huhI wonder what royaltys blood tastes like.how fun.
Saying so, Abraham imdiately stands up.
Then.
Im going out. Have the cavalry ride after .
With that said, Abraham left the hut and started running over to a nearby horse.
Marianne who departed from Marquis Percivals territory led the citizens to an area near the imperial border.
There is still no sign of pursuit from the Dominion Army.
However.
This is terrible..
Marianne muttered at the disastrous scene.
On the planned escape route, Marianne and the others discovered the annihilated escort unit.
The battle between Raphael and Elna has made the area beca quite conspicuous.
If the escort unit is wiped out then this plan must have already been discovered by the enemy! They will surely be waiting for us if we keep going.
The soldiers point that out but they have already passed the point where they can turn back.
After considering the situation for a short mont, Marianne turned to Mia.
Mia-san, what do you think?
Mias answer was already decided.
The enemys pursuit will co sooner or later.
If they have to take care of the people here, the enemy will catch up in no ti.
In that case.
We have no choice but to call for help[desuwa].
From the Imperial Army?
I dont think that the Imperial Army at the border will leave their position. We should rely on Prince Arnold here [desuwa].
B, But, even with a fast horse, it will take at least a day to travel here from the Zweig territory where His Highness is!
I will earn you ti until then [wa].
They dont know whether Al will imdiately make his move right after the ssenger arrived or not.
Still, right now this is their best move.
The enemy is wary of them eting up with the Imperial Army at the border.
If they want to prevent the princess from doing that then, Mia can predict their movents to so extent.
However.
We can expect the ssenger to be attacked on their way[desuwa]. We might have to send out several people to bring the news.
It is a dangerous mission.
The enemy is not stupid either.
After all, their destination is the Empire.
It is natural that they would send soone to the border in advance.
The current Imperial Northern Border is not fully manned. If it is only a few elites then the enemy should be able to lie in wait at the other side of the border as well.
No doubt, they will ambush any ssengers coming their way.
Thats why they can not send only one ssenger.
We have three horses that ssengers can use. I dont think that the other horses can endure the journey.
Then I want you to select two people[desuwa]. I have one person that Id like to recomnd for the job.
Who is it?
He is a smart child. Im sure that he will be able to do it well.
Saying so, Mia looks at a large group of people.
Then.
Ted. Co here.
The na that Mia called was Ted.
Seeing a young boy stepping forward, Marianne opened her eyes wide.
She cant allow a boy who is even younger than herself to ride out as a ssenger.
Mia-san! This is too much!
If we send out military personnel they will stand out too much. No one will think that we would send a child out as a ssenger[desuwa].
That logic is sound. Besides, if its a child then it will lessen the burden on the horse as well.
But.
The problem here is his ability.
I will guarantee that[desuwa].
With the soldier supporting the plan, Marianne couldnt say anything.
After all, this is no ti to argue whether he is a child or an adult.
Mia-nee..what are you talking about?
Ted..I want you to ride to Prince Arnold and act as our ssenger[desuwa]. You are the only child who can ride a horse and read maps[desuwa].
Wait..what are you saying all of a sudden? a ssenger..you want to run away by myself!?
You are not running away, you are going to call for help[desuwa].
Is there really a guarantee that an Empires prince will help us!? Even if I go, the people there will not let see him right!
Prince Arnold will never abandon people in need[desuwa]. Especially if its a child.
Dont treat like a child! I can fight! I can do it!
I am treating you as an adult right now [desuwa]. Thats why I am entrusting you with this job. Once you et the prince, give him this bag. He will understand.
Saying so, Without waiting for Ted to argue back, she pulls Teds hand and brings him to a horse.
The horse is carrying a minimum amount of food for the trip.
The two soldiers are also ready.
Go. You have to et the Prince instead of . If you tell him that Mia is asking for help then he will surely move[desuwa].
What would you do if he didnt!? The other party is royalty you know!? They are even worse than the aristocrats! How can I trust him!
Do not look down too much on the clan of the Golden Eagle[desuwa].
Prince Arnold is that failure of a prince of the Imperial Family right!? Even out here, I know that he is being called the Dull Prince!
Because he is not soone who would get angry when people insult him like that, he is worthy of our trust[desuwa]. Dont you think so?
Hes just being weak right!?
If you think so then you can see for yourself after you et him[desuwa].
With that said, Mia puts Ted on a horse.
Knowing that theres no use arguing anymore, Ted roughly received the map handed to him by a nearby soldier.
At least promise that you will not push yourself until the help arrives.
That will depend on the opponent[desuwane].
Ted frowns at how Mia refused to make a promise.
At the sa ti, the two soldiers rode out.
Ted follows after them.
When he was leaving, Mia called out to him.
Ted. Dont forget to say thank you for helping us okay!
Seriously
Frustrated by Mias optimism, Ted rides after the two soldiers.
