“It’s time to conquer them, fairy warriors! Show them the power of the fairies that reside in our bodies!”
“「「「「「HAAAA!!」」」」」”
The troops led by the Fifth Princess Alex hold up their hands toward the undead soldiers.
A large amount of magical power released from the 500 soldiers shook the atmosphere. The magical power that had congealed above their heads changed into the shape of arrows and emitted a brilliant light.
“Oioi,seriously…!?”
A wizard in the Zain Royal Army: Flare Bird: gasps.
In the eyes of Flare Bird, who had fused with a spirit through a forbidden experiment, he could clearly see the enormous amount of magical power being emitted by a unit calling itself the 『Fairy Squadron』 that had suddenly appeared.
Although the Zain Royal Army also has a unit of magic users led by Flare Bird, the difference in ability between them and the soldiers under Alex was obvious.
“They’ve created a unit with only magicians of this level… how much manpower does the empire have?!”
Once again, the difference in strength between the Kingdom of Zain and the Arslanian Empire was shown.
Although the Arslanian Empire had once been stopped from invading by Raidorl…… it seems that it still had a lot of strength left in it.
The Kingdom of Zain would have been attacked and destroyed before Raidorl could intervene if they had been serious. It was also due to the Empire having multiple borders with enemy countries, it couldn’t use their maximum strength.
“Fire!”
“『『『『『Illuminate』』』』』”
At the signal of Alex, the soldiers lower their hand.
Arrows of light constructed by enormous magical power are released all at once, raining down on the undead soldiers.
A dazzling flash of light is created, and the undead soldiers who were about to strike toward Celia are kicked away.
Thousands of undead soldiers disappeared into dust in less than a second. Even though the soldiers used light magic, which is a weak attribute for the undead, it was powerful enough to make one’s eyes peel back.
“Keep your eyes open! The fairy squadron is a special unit that combines the power of elves and humans! Our power with the power of the elves, you should see it in your own eyes!”
Alex shouted with pride at the overwhelmed undead army.
The fairy squadron.
The soldiers of that unit, under the command of Princess Alex, are composed of half-breeds born between humans and elves.
The Arslanian Empire has a long-standing hostile relationship with the subhuman allied nations. There are many subhumans in the Empire who were brought as prisoners of war and used harshly as slaves.
Among such subhuman slaves, elves are often treated as sex slaves because of their beautiful appearance.
If a man and a woman engage in such acts, it is natural that they will have children. For this reason, there are mixed children born between elves and humans in the empire, and they are subject to discrimination.
“Do not underestimate the half-breeds! Brave warriors, destroy the undeads!”
“「「「「「Oooo!!」」」」」”
“Kill, kill, kill! Turn the undead monster back into a real corpse!”
“『『『『『Illuminate』』』』』”
Following Alex’s orders, the soldiers of the fairy squadron exterminate the undead soldiers.
They release light magic to turn the undead to dust, and use their spears to kill enemies who evade their magic.
The soldiers of the fairy squadron are highly skilled wizards but they also seem to have good physical abilities. They handle the undead soldiers with ease.
They are a mixture of human and elf blood.
Although they were despised as 『Unclean Blood』 their abilities were not necessarily low.
In fact, they have both human and elven qualities, and are able to compensate for each other’s deficiencies.
Humans have greater physical ability than elves, but less aptitude for magic. Very few humans awaken as wizards.
In contrast, elves have a very high aptitude for magic but low physical ability. Each one of them has excellent abilities as a magician, but their……bodies are poor themselves. They could hardly handle metal weapons and could only use a bow and arrow at best.
These half-breeds have the best of both worlds, with physical abilities on par with humans and magical powers on par with elves.
The fairy squadrons are finally created as a result of the search for ways to use them, and to alleviate the Empire’s difficult position to deal with its mixed race children……who were in a discriminatory class but had extreme power that made them extremely capable.
“Hahahahaha! These undeads are garbage. I will return everything to dust!”
“Uuwaa….Alex, you’re too excited. Is it because she is so stressed out?”
Seeing her younger sister gleefully taking command and annihilating the undead soldiers, Celia was fascinated.
“She was not allowed out of the empire because she is a treasured child. It seems she’s ruffled some feathers on her first time out of the empire..”
“Her Highness Celia, who is she……”
Darren asked as he approached Celia.
It was surprising that she had such a large magical unit, but it was even more surprising that a young girl was in command of it.
Who in the world is she, he asked.
“That child’s name is Alex. Alex Rainmakina Amaltu Arslanian. My younger sister from a different mother and the youngest fifth princess. Well, there are other brothers and sisters who are not recognized as legitimate children…”
“ An Imperial princess….?! An elf……?”
“It’s complicated. Don’t worry about it.”
“………….”
When Celia replied with a vague smile, Darren also kept his mouth shut.
Any further inquiry is beyond the realm of what he, a mere knight, am allowed to step over.
What he should be doing is not to investigate the identity of an unknown person. This is a battlefield, and the battle has not yet been settled.
“Is it okay if I judge you as an ally? If so, I will support you”
“Of course. I’m going back in too, now that I’ve recovered my magic!”
“Then……all troops, counterattack! Cover the magic troops and exterminate the undead!”
Daren rallied the soldiers of the Zain Royal Army and charged at the undead soldiers.
The undead soldiers, who had been suppressed by the fairy warriors, were killed one after another, and the number of the enemy was reduced.
Celia, who had been exhausted by the activation of the holy armour, joined them.
Although she had not reached the level of skill to continuously activate the holy armour, she was still the holder of the holy sword.
Whenever lightning flashed on the battlefield, dust, the remnants of the undead soldiers, danced in the air.
The battle between the forces of the Kingdom of Zain and the forces of the undead.
The battle between the two sides in the Kingdom of Athena is gaining momentum and is heading toward a decisive outcome.
However….there is still no sign of Raidorl, the general of the Zain Royal Army, on the battlefield. Nor is there any sign of the knight of 『Death』 the second-in-command of the undead army.
Their battle was also taking place at a distance from the main battlefield.
