Chapter 257
『 Don’t you dare make me angry?
Don’t think that your crime could go unpunished .
Well, it would be a shame to sink the whole continent .
Maybe I should settle it by destroying the country only…』(Mile)
(((((Uwaaaaaaaaa!)))))) (E . Soldiers)
The soldiers were trembling .
But Eyes See… the goddess thought .
Even if the soldiers here believed it, there was no point if the higher-ups, who received the report didn’t believe it .
Then she walked up to the soldiers and pulled out the sword from the waist of a rigid soldier .
『Hmmm!』(Mile)
And she kneaded the sword with her fingers, swirling and swirling it .
((((Why didn’t it break!?)))))) (E . Soldiers)
Yes, the sword should be broken .
There’s no such thing as deforming like clay .
And then, she punctured the soldier’s breast armor with one finger .
With a very light feeling .
Supon . Supon . Supon . (SFX)
After that, she punctured three more holes beside the one created by her index finger . There were total four holes with four fingers at the same time .
『Gyaaaaaaaa!』(E . Soldier)
Even though his body is still fine, the soldier screamed out lord in exaggerated .
Then the goddess pointed her finger toward the rock a little further away…
Dogon (SFX)
They are truly the soldiers of the National Army .
Only a few of them fell down to the ground .
However, the rest of them are only standing .
Even though they are standing, they are in no condition to move at all .
It’s a complete, rigid state .
『…Now go .
And tell your emperor .
What will happen to those who go against my will…』(Mile)
Then Mile manipulated gravity, flew to the sky and away from that place .
『『『『『『『…………』』』』』』』(E . Soldiers)
After several minutes passed, the soldiers finally regained their minds .
If they stand still in such a place, they will be killed by a surprise attack from the monsters .
… If it is normal .
But for now, they don’t need to worry .
All the monsters have run away for their lives to the left and right .
One senior soldier raised his voice .
『No, the runaway monsters will overflow from the forest!』(E Senior Soldier)
However, in order to make everyone feel secure, the commander denied it .
『That should be fine .
In preparation for such a case, we left 2 platoons there, on the outer edge of the forest .
They will definitely stop the monsters! We aren’t here for playing .
While we processed in the past few days, they should make a blockade in preparation for it .
Besides, the runaway of monsters must have weakened, exhausted their physical strength when reaching the outer edge .
They shouldn’t be able to run anymore .
They won’t be a big threat .
More than that, we are the one who must be careful, because we may collide with that flock of monsters when they turn back .
We only need to prepare for it .
…And you do not have to think about the goddess .
I will think something about it, the reason for turning back, a believable story so that they won’t suspect our sanity, and also relaying the Goddess’ will .
I will manage to do something, it’s my job』(E . Commander)
The commander said that with a fragile face, but at last everyone could be a little relieved .
Yes, it’s their job to report the matter of the goddess .
They just have to talk to other female servants and tavern’s waitresses .
That is the privilege of lower soldiers .
『Okay, we will resume moving! Get in the line!』(E . Commander)
And a mixed group of two-platoons, mercenaries and hunters went back .
With heavy mind…

『Why is there no stored girl? Where has she gone?』(Allied Captain)
When the captain shouted so, the girls of 【Red Oath】 have a troubled face .
『Well, about that .
She planned to give a bit of a lesson…
so that the enemies will never dare to do something like this again…』(Maevis)
『Hah!?
Don’t tell me, she has invaded enemy territory across the border at night?
I have told you “Absolutely do not cross the border”
What in the world are you thinking?!』(A . Captain)
When the night is over, after breakfast, when everyone tried to withdraw the camp,
naturally, the absence of Mile was found out .
For breakfast, everyone baked and ate the rest of the meat last night, Pauline’s group just needed to sell sauce, salt, pepper, drinks that Mile left behind .
The unfinished drink barrel will be thrown away when they move .
But as the half-drunk barrel can be stored in Mile storage, they don’t have to worry .
And when the soldiers thought that they could ask Mile to store the unfinished Barrel and food to eat again tonight, they couldn’t help but despair .
『No, she isn’t a soldier .
The hunter can act on their own initiative for actions like hunting her own food regardless of the request .
And of course, regardless of the border as well』(Maevis)
Maevis calmly explained to the Captain .
After listening to it, the Captain has a face like【Oh!】
Indeed, as I was told, it’s true .
Since the activity of 【Red Oath】 from yesterday has been reported to the Vice Captain of our 2nd squad .
I know that young girl Mile has a fighting power more than a normal soldier regardless of her appearance .
However, it was too reckless to pursue a group of monsters by himself, no matter how strong she is .
Besides, even if she runs away, there will be a time lag before she catches up with this unit . How can she manage it in the meantime?
At least, the skillful swordswoman, the leader of this 【Red Oath】group or the magicians should accompany her .
The Captain said so and accused Maevis’ group of their reckless act…
『Eh?
But Mile is superior to me in sword skill .
Her attack magic is stronger than Rena .
Her healing and support magic is more prosperous than Pauline .
Because she is our sword and magic teacher in the first place』(Maevis)
『Eh?』(A . Captain)
『『『『『Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeh』』』』』(A . Soldiers)
Not only the Captain but also the soldiers were surprised .
『Is it true?』(A . Captain)
『It’s true』(Maevis)
『Do not you have to wait here for her?』(A . Captain)
『No, perhaps, Mile is safer without us . 』(Maevis)
『…………』(A . Captain)
I don’t want to think anymore .
The Captain thought so and ordered everyone .
『Withdraw!
We will return home right away!』(A . Captain)
Because of Mile’s group from the first two days, their ration food and water almost haven’t decreased at all .
The remaining time to return is a day and a half when they still have food .
Of course, they don’t plan to throw away water or portable food .
It isn’t a waste to be careful when marching in the woods where you don’t know what will happen .
However, they couldn’t carry so much food .
In the end, they only carried up to their capacity .
The soldier will have meat for dinner tonight and breakfast tomorrow morning .
… Of course, because it takes time, they have no plans to take lunch .
And around noon .
『Sorry, I was late!』(Mile)
『How can you catch up so early!?』(A . Captain)
Seeing Mile, who wasn’t tired at all after catching up with the group, the captain has a face like giving up everything and doesn’t bother anymore .
『Ah, at the camp, I also collected barrels and meats that were left behind .
I’m sorry, I should have kept everything in storage and leaving only breakfast .
I didn’t think it through .
I’m sorry .
Your luggage, I will put them all in my storage!』(Mile)
(I don’t care anymore .
I’m tired .
Most tired in my life…) (A . Captain)
And the Captain issued instructions to everyone .
『We have a big break!
Give your meat and luggage to the storage girl!』(A . Captain)
Bufu~u! (Blow out air from the mouth SFX)
『Wha… what’s with that 【storage girl】?』(Mile)
『Ah, my bad …』(A . Captain)
The Captain apologized to Mile because he carelessly called Mile which the nickname, they used to call her, in a moment of mental exhaustion .
And at night .
『Come on .
We have the sauce for grilled meat, salt, and pepper .
Lemon juice with ice .
Apple that you can ask for storage and eat again if you don’t finish .
Besides, because you were banned from alcoholic beverages,
We have cold【Mocked Ale】which doesn’t get drunk .
1 cup 5 small silver coins!』(Pauline)
『『『『『……Damn it! Damn it all! My special allowance . Aaaaaaa!』』』』』(55 people – Red Oath)
