Chapter 439: 439
The western border of the Empire .
Leo, who commands the Royal Army, received a message from the Imperial Capital .
"Ceasefire?
"Yes, it is a decision of the Council of the Wise Kings, so please withdraw your troops on the front lines immediately . "
"What if the Royal Army doesn't respond?
"The Adventurer Alliance will strike with all its might . "
Listening to the message, Leo nodded several times .
And I said a word .
Roger that .
Leo lowers the message as it is .
And then . . .
"- What do you think?Leticia "
"How does the kingdom get out?Leo "
Leticia, who was waiting in the next room, asked as she approached Leo, who was sitting in the chair .
In response, Leticia answered calmly .
"I don't think His Royal Highness Prince Wang will go against the decision of the Sage Kings' Council, no matter how tough he is . It will turn the entire continent into enemies . "
"Normally, yes, but the kingdom's attitude wasn't normal . Even though the clan and the United Kingdom, which were allies, left the front, they did not agree with the peace . And even though we destroyed the front lines, we still had plenty of room and stamina . Where does that confidence come from? "
"Maybe he thought he could handle the Empire . "
"What a surprise that SS Adventurers will intervene?
"Probably"
While listening to Leo, Leo thinks with his arms .
A trump card enough to think the Empire opponent can handle it . What the hell is that?
I couldn't get a bad feeling out of it, and Leo felt anxious .
Leticia put her hand on Leo's shoulder .
"I understand your anxiety . But I don't think we have to follow instructions now . "
" . . . that's also true . Lower the troops on the front lines . When that's over, they'll call us back to the Imperial Capital . "
Leo lays his hand on Leticia's shoulder .
Leo, who was tasked with dealing with the north, was far from Leticia .
It's finally on the western front, where we can stay with Leticia, but things have changed again .
"I can't help it . . . because we're at war . "
"I was going to finish it right away . . . sorry . "
"It's not for you to apologize . You have properly brought the civil unrest in the north to an end . That's enough for me . "
I'm not good enough .
"Even so . . . there are still more rebels from the Kingdom . I have to stay here to bring them together . . . . . "
"I hate it now that we're in each other's positions . "
Leo sighs deeply and pulls Leticia's hand over her shoulder .
Balanced Leticia screams small and falls to Leo .
Leo took over the reticule and placed it on Leo's lap .
"Well, what's the matter . . . ?

"If you're going to the Imperial Capital, I'd like to take you home . "
"Don't say impossible . . . . . "
"I'm sad, I'm . . . "
Leo also held Leticia tightly as he exhaled .
Time flows for a while .
Leo murmured with astonishment .
"I can't say that it's good to be selfish .
"A little wish . "
"So, if I say I miss you, will you stay?
"Are you lonely!? Then of course!I'll write my father a letter saying I miss Leticia, so I'll stay . "
"Don't be so embarrassed!I knew it! Go to the Imperial Capital!
"I don't know . . . . "
"I don't know if it's safe to say . . . His Royal Highness the Crown Prince shouldn't give up . I'm sure the Empire and Kingdom will fight again . This truce must have been quiet before the storm . "
" . . . when will it be over?"
Leo groans .
The battle was on the other hand intense .
When I jumped into a struggle over the empire, I was ready . However, the battle has gradually grown, and now it has developed into a war between the great Powers .
When will it end? When can it be finished?
The invisible battle exhausted Leo .

"Someday it will be over . War cannot be cut off from humanity . Mankind has always fought . But there is no eternal war . So one day it's over . "
"Someday it'll be over . . . the sooner the better"
"Leo can do it . "
"I think you can say that . "
Leo smiles as he says .
So the story ends, and Leticia tries to get off Leo, but Leo doesn't let go .
"Why are you trying to get off?
"It's embarrassing! Let go of me!What if someone sees you!?
"Can I see it?"
"Aren't you ashamed!?
"I don't think so . The Knights aren't coming in carefree either . Captain Lambert . "
Leo asks Lamberto, the captain of the Sixth Knight Guard who won the battle in the north and followed him to the west .
Then I heard a voice from behind the door .
"Of course . I will not disturb your pleasure . "
It was a faintly mixed laugh .
When I heard the voice, Leticia's face became cool and red .
Looking forward to Leo's reaction, Leo gave instructions .
"Give the outpost an evacuation order . I can't move . "
Yes, sir .
"Now we have time . Shall we stay a little longer?
With a smile, Leo was able to focus on embracing Leticia .

"Retreat your troops on the front lines . The Empire is retreating . "
After giving his men short instructions, Lucian, the prince of the kingdom of Perran, was in his room .
The study of the Kingdom by the Council of the Wise Kings was unexpected .
I have to change my plan .
"SS class adventurers are coming in . Don't expect my help .
Of course it is . Rest assured, Your Highness . "
Lucian nods at the voice coming back from the wall .
There is a limit to what can be done .
The best of them was not to move .
"I'll take care of everything . It's still too soon for SS Adventurers . Ready? "
I understand .
The voice from the wall came from the shadows .
The shadow was human at first, but eventually he changed into a bird shadow and left the room .
Drop it off and Lucian exhales .
And then . . .
"I'll leave the match with you . Ardler "
He murmured as he looked at the direction of the Empire .
