Agartha's army
Total number of troops: about 20,000.
Soldiers do not mobilize farmers or citizens for war, but all are dedicated to military service. Therefore, they are well trained and each soldier is highly skilled. They have experienced major battles against the Kingdom of Tana and the Kingdom of Burial, so all of them are well-trained in warfare.
Military composition: The army is composed of two major armies under the command of King Linos of Agartha. The two legions are headed by Matkal, one of the wives of King Rinos of Agartha, and Knogen. The commander-in-chief of the Agarthan army is Knogen. Matkal tends to command the offensive and Knogen the defensive, but their commanding ability is as high as that of Agartha's King Rinos.
Equipment: warding stones, black armor, long spear, magic gun
Since all the soldiers are equipped with warding stones, physical and magical attacks are difficult to penetrate. The cavalry is equipped with spears and the infantry with long spears. In addition, some of the infantrymen carry weapons that attack by accumulating magic power. Their power is great. It can be handled even by those without magical power.
Characteristics: The army moves extremely fast. The warding nullifies most of the attacks, so the loss of soldiers is extremely small. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the strongest army in the world.
The strongest army in the world.
In his room at his mansion in Aphrodite, Rucker looks at the report, sighs loudly, and leans his large frame against the sturdy chair. I think the analytical ability of our soldiers is outstanding. There is not the slightest exaggeration or embellishment, not even the slightest attempt to flatter his kingly self, but simply a calm, unaffected analysis of Agartha's strength. In other words, this ability to accurately estimate the strength of the opponent was the strength of the Subcliner Kingdom led by Rucker.
However. As long as Agartha King Linos is in this world, Vieille's heart will never turn to us. It was safe to say that it would never happen. Even if Rinos were to disappear from this world, the possibility that Vieille's heart would turn to me is unknown. But Rucker had an unfounded confidence. If he worked hard and sincerely for His Holiness the Pope, he was sure that he would be turned by him.
......Whenever he slept or woke up, his feelings for Vieille were still there.
Since the first time he saw her, Vieille was always in Rucker's mind. In order to get as close to Vieille as possible, no matter how dangerous the battle may be, he has been leading the way through the battlefield, defeating those who oppose Crimiana and Vieille. Because of his achievements, he was allowed to stay close to the Pope. For this reason, Rucker has been guarding Vieille's personal belongings, spying on him from time to time. He had been driven by Vieille's beauty to the point of insanity if he did not do something about it.
Vieille, the woman he loves so much: ....... But rumor has it that she has feelings for Linos, King of Agartha. For his part, he could never accept this and wanted to deny it at all costs. However, the way Master Vieille behaved at the conference made it clear that she was in love with Rinos. Those who are not so discreet say that Master Vieille is planning to use his good looks to seduce Rinos and bring Agartha under his control. He did not want such a thing to happen. He thought that he should fight against the king of Agartha and win the war, but he could not help but think about it. The sight of her in that man's arms.
Vieille presents her white body, her breasts, her ass to Linos. ....... Rinos enjoys the girlish innocence of her body to his heart's content. Soon, Vieille is penetrated by Rinos's devotion. .......
It's not possible. He shakes his head, telling himself this. It is because of that man ...... King Agartha that he is tormented by such a painful thought. If only that man could be buried from this world. .......
I must stay by his side and protect him. ....... I am the one who came into this world to protect you, Vieille. ....... As Rucker's thoughts grew, he came to believe that this was his destiny.
"Who is there?"
Soon one of the retainers entered the room and bowed reverently. Rucker gave him an order in a grave tone.
"Gather the leading men of the army. We will hold a council of war."
The retainer looked at him for a moment, then bowed again and left the room.
The man bowed again and left the room.
"The king ...... that's ......."
About 30 minutes later, the four main leaders of the Royal Army of Subkriner were standing in front of Rucker. They were unable to respond to Rucker's words.
"I will say it again. We will take the fight to Agartha."
"......"
"The king of Agartha, the head of Rinos."
"With awe."
It was Sanena, commander-in-chief of the Royal Army of Subkriner, who spoke up. He is a fierce general who, along with Rucker, always leads the army in a charge against the enemy. His face was covered with numerous scars, and his hideous features never faded from the memory of those who saw him once.
Sanena, with an expression of regret on her face, opens her mouth quietly, as if she were admonishing a young child.
"Have you not seen the report of the Agarthan army that we presented to the king today?"
"No, I read it. It was an excellent report, written from a neutral point of view."
"So, then, why ......?"
"King Agartha, Linos must be exterminated at all costs."
"I understand how you feel. I understand your feelings very well. But there is not a chance in hell that we, the armies of the Kingdom of Sublunar, will prevail against the armies of Agartha.
"What chance do we have alone against an army that cannot be penetrated by sword, spear, or magic?"
"That's right, sir."
Rucker smiles bitterly. King or no king, this Sanena is not afraid to say what she thinks is right. He is proud to protect the king's life and, by extension, the kingdom of Subkriner at all costs. Rucker felt that he could count on him, but at the same time he was a little frustrated that he could not understand his own feelings.
"Awe, what part of Agartha are you going to attack? You are not thinking of raiding ...... the capital of Agartha, are you?"
"That's impossible. If you are heading for the capital of Agartha, you will have to go through the Lamaronic Empire from the south, the Duchy of Niza from the north, and the Heedata Empire if you are heading ...... from the east, taking a large detour. In other words, if you are going to the capital of Agartha, you must pass through the allies of those countries. Our movements are in full view: ....... We will probably have to fight against the armies of Lamaron, Niza, or Heedata before entering Agartha.
One of the commanders opens his mouth. Rucker frowns, knowing that he doesn't need to be told such a thing.
"Take the map of Agartha. I said, take it!
Rucker, unable to conceal his frustration, orders his men to raise their voices. Soon a map of Agartha was spread out on his desk.
......The more I look at it, the more I realize how well defended it is. Allies or vassals are waiting for us on every side, east, west, south, north, and west, and we are prepared to prevent a single man from entering Agartha. But ...... there will always be a gap. There will always be ...... an opening."
Rucker looked around at the assembled commanders and pointed to the map with his index finger. The commanders were speechless when they saw the name of the city ahead.
Here it is! This is the only place we can lure Linos, the king of Agartha.
"This ...... king ....... Even if we could lure the king of Agartha to us, what are our chances ......?"
"Don't worry, Sanena. I have a plan.
At Rucker's words, Sanena and the other commanders looked at each other.
