3 - Fortress Battle 要塞之战

Having invaded Selva, I stood in formation before the fort as Zayin9;s supreme commander.

在攻入塞尔瓦之后，我作为扎因的最高指挥官，列队站在要塞前。

We surrounded its structure, and the unit we9;d stationed began firing magic into it.

我们包围了它的结构，我们驻扎的部队开始向它发射魔法。

The ancestors watched that scene from the Jewel.

祖先们在宝石上看着这一幕。

I wiped off my mouth with my thumb, and issued orders to Clara.

我用大拇指擦去嘴角的血迹，向克拉拉发布命令。

『Clara, magic is coming your way. Enter defensive formation.』

『克拉拉，魔法朝你的方向来了。进入防御阵型。』

『Understood.』

『明白。』

After I confirmed that the magicians within the fortress planned to concentrate their fire on a single point, and burn it away, I gave orders to our forces on the opposite side of Clara.

在我确认要塞内的魔法师打算集中火力烧毁一个点后，我向克拉拉对面的我军下达了命令。

Novem was stationed on that side.

诺维姆驻扎在那一边。

『Novem, the enemy is focusing solely on Clara9;s station. Continue your attack. They9;ve lost most their archers, so it9;s possible they may come out to attack.』

『诺维姆，敌人只盯着克拉拉的驻地。继续攻击。他们失去了大部分弓箭手，有可能会出来攻击。』

The attacks centered around our siege weapons shot down the enemy magicians. As long as we kept firing magic at one another, the attack and defense would continue until one side ran out of Mana.

以我们的攻城武器为中心的攻击击落了敌人的魔法师。只要我们不断向对方发射魔法，攻防战就会一直持续下去，直到一方耗尽法力。

I had thought of using the knight to infiltrate the fortress. But the ancestors wouldn9;t let me do it.

敌人无法阻挡诺维姆军团的魔法，就在寨墙被刨得毫无保护的时候，我又看到了敌人的动静。

"有！"

通过技能连接，我可以迅速发出命令。

他对敌人的指挥部提出了严厉的意见。但四爷却有不同意见。

『如果援军不来，那就只能这样了，如果他们还想有一丝胜利的可能的话。他们的口粮状况，还有不断下降的士气......我甚至想同情一下这支部队的指挥官。』

In a fortress surrounded on all sights, the soldiers and knights of Selva were putting up a good fight. But our momentum was on another level.

The Seventh spoke.

七爷没有否认这个决定。

But that doesn9;t mean we were going to halt our hand, so if the ancestors decided to move, they would thoroughly crush them, I9;m sure.

“Send reinforcements. Do we have a messenger around?”

He gave a harsh comment at the enemy command. But the Fourth was of a different opinion.

当他们集中攻击克拉拉所在的中队时，伊娃军团冲了过去，举起魔法盾挡住了攻击。

我曾想过利用骑士潜入要塞。但祖先不让我这么做。

“The enemy is coming out. Tell everyone to brace themselves.”

When they concentrated their attacks on the squadron Clara was assigned to, Eva9;s corp rushed over, and put their Magic Shield up to block the attack.

在人数相差悬殊的情况下，我方还能进行精确的攻防，敌军再也无法忍受，便自己冲了过来。

『Whichever way it went, they were going to lose, so it isn9;t a bad thing to look for the greatest plan. In truth, there weren9;t as much magic attacks coming from Clara9;s side, so perhaps they thought to crush them first?』

另一边，诺维姆的部队也加强了阵型。

"派人增援。我们身边有信使吗？"

在我的大脑中，通过第五维技能和第六维技能，我可以对敌人的行动了如指掌。

三世说话了。

一个紧张的骑士接到命令后，就去传达了。我觉得这样做很迂回，但这也是祖先的要求之一。

『Oh, so they9;re coming out. It9;s already the third day, so before their morale hits its low point, perhaps they9;re going to make a gamble.』

A nervous knight received the orders, and went off to transmit them. I thought this was quite a roundabout way to go about it, but it was also one of the ancestors9; requests.

我向身边的士兵下达了命令。

"敌人出来了。告诉大家做好准备。"

They were mounting their horses in the fort, and preparing to attack.

The Fifth let his voice..

The stone face of the enemy fortress was slowly being chipped away, and it seems they were panicking as they saw none of their attacks were reaching us.

On the other side, Novem9;s force had strengthened their formation.

『哦，他们出来了。已经是第三天了，在他们的士气跌到最低点之前，也许他们会赌一把。』

Monica and Shannon were in the back, and May was also on standby there. Miranda was on the side of the fort opposite to me, and awaiting my order.

『......他们太弱了。这样下去，他们的情况确实会越来越糟，但现在不是集中精力的时候。』

七爷说话了。

敌人堡垒的石面正在慢慢被削去，看来他们看到自己的攻击都没有打到我们，已经慌了神。

The Third spoke.

『If reinforcements aren9;t coming, then that what it9;ll come to if they want the slightest possibility of victory. The state of their rations, and the falling morale… I9;d even like to sympathize with this force9;s commander.』

我站了起来，发了一条信息。

The enemy was unable to block the magic of Novem9;s group, and as the fortress wall was shaved away without protection, I saw another enemy movement.

The soldiers ran forth, and Aria came to stand next to me. Rather than putting her out for an exchange of magics, I thought it best to preserve her strength.

『Hmm, I guess this is alright for a start.』

老三。

莫妮卡和香农在后面，梅也在那里待命。米兰达在我对面的堡垒一侧，等待我的命令。

I gave an order to the soldiers near me.

"无论如何，他们都是输家，所以寻找一个最好的计划并不是坏事。事实上，克拉拉那边的魔法攻击并没有那么多，也许他们是想先击溃他们吧？

With my Skill connection, I could swiftly issue out orders.

士兵们跑了出来，阿瑞雅走到我身边。我认为与其让她出来交换魔法，不如保存她的体力。

Alongside the difference in numbers, our side was able to conduct precise attack and defense, the enemy was no longer able to endure it, so they came at us themselves.

夜幕降临时，看到双方都筋疲力尽地休息，这是战争中的标准场景。

他们在堡垒里上马，准备进攻。

The Seventh didn9;t deny that decision.

“Y-yes!”

ISeeing both sides exhausted and resting at the fall of night was a standard scene in war.

Within my head, with the Fifth9;s Dimension Skill, and the Sixth9;s Spec, I could understand the enemies9; movements like the back of my hand.

在一个四面环山的要塞里，塞尔瓦的士兵和骑士们打得很激烈。但我们的气势却在另一个层面上。

『… They9;re weak. It9;s true that things would keep getting worse for them if it went on at this rate, but that wasn9;t the time to concentrate on a point.』

但这并不意味着我们要收手，如果先辈们决定行动，他们一定会彻底击溃他们，我敢肯定。

五世发出了他的声音。

『也许只是勉强及格吧？莱尔是一回事，但扎因和塞尔瓦的动作都太糟糕了。更糟糕的是，塞尔瓦已经走投无路了，所以你应该试着从他们的动作中学到一两样东西。』

『嗯，我想这是个好的开始。』

I stood, and gave a message.

The Third.

『Just barely a passing grade, perhaps? Lyle9;s one thing, but both Zayin and Selva9;s movements are simply awful. More so, Selva9;s desperate, so you should try to learn a thing or two from the movements of their men.』

There Creit-san came over to me on his horse.

克里特先生骑着马向我走来。

“Lyle-kun! If the enemy is coming, than I shall take them on!”

"莱尔君！如果敌人来了，那就由我来对付他们！"

Taking along his knights, he held up his spear, and showed his motivation. The soldiers held up pikes, as they waited for the enemy9;s arrival, so if possible, I didn9;t want anyone to go out and meet them.

他带着他的骑士们，举起长矛，表明了自己的决心。士兵们举着长矛，等待着敌人的到来，如果可能的话，我不希望有人出去迎敌。

I crossed my arms.

我双手交叉。

“Please wait for my orders before attacking. Aria, help out Creit-san9;s force.”

"请等待我的命令再发动攻击。阿瑞雅，帮助克里特先生的部队。"

When I said that, Aria seemed just a little bit unsatisfied.

我这么一说，阿瑞雅似乎就有点不满意了。

“You won9;t come along?”

"你不一起去吗？"

The Fourth spoke.

老四说话了。

『No, he9;s earned enough achievements, so there9;s no real point to sending Lyle out. And wait, it9;s definitely no good for the general to go up front.』

"不，他的功绩已经够多了，派莱尔出去没有什么意义。等等，将军上前线肯定不好。

The general is not to go up front, was a prerequisite. That was the basics of a winning general. But if you didn9;t show your might, the soldiers wouldn9;t be able to put their minds at ease.

将军不上前，是先决条件。这是一个常胜将军的基本功。但如果不显示自己的威风，士兵们就无法安心。

Without even going forth myself, the knights and soldiers were in awe of me.

在附近，圣骑士和经过轻微职业改变的神骑士们在敌人的推进面前显得相当紧张。

And the Fourth…

I don9;t think it was just my imagination that she looked a little happy.

咏叹调踢了踢马肚子，催促它继续前进，同时她也看着逼近的骑士。

在那里面，驻守在最前方的克里特从马上看着战场，开口说道。

阿瑞雅左手紧握马缰绳，右手将长矛夹在腋下。

『信任，我明白了。她真的长大了，你知道吗？那个咏叹调。现在正是她的成长期，让她以将军为目标如何？』

0;Wounded? But still!1;

The soldiers followed behind, setting a course for the main camp where Lyle was stationed.

我轻轻拍了拍她的背，她左手拿起头盔，向拴马的地方跑去。

三世是开玩笑说的，但我觉得她出奇地适合这个角色。

甚至不用我亲自出马，骑士和士兵们就对我敬畏有加。

Her spear that was able to pierce straight through him, armor and all, was imbued with a hardening effect from a Skill. But as he spat up blood, he dropped his weapon, and grabbed onto Aria9;s spear with both his hands.

但也有许多骑士擦身而过，冲出重围。

"Attaaaacck！"

我想不只是我的想象，她看起来有点高兴。

手持长矛的士兵正等待着拦截来袭的骑兵。当双方相撞时，不少骑士从马背上摔了下来，身上插着长矛，鲜血直流。

The Third said it as a joke, but I got the feeling she fit the role surprisingly well.

“Bastard!”

Within that, Creit stationed at the front looked at the battlefield from up on his horse, and spoke.

那四号呢......

When the soldiers began their intense battle, Lyle gave the signal.

（我会考虑的。）

『Trust, I see. Well, she really has grown, you know. That Aria-chan. It9;s her growing period, so how about having her aim for a General position?』

"太神奇了。我能如此清晰地辨别对手的动向......"

Creit raised a loud voice.

“It9;s because I trust you, that I9;ll remain here. And the enemy is desperate, so don9;t drop your guard.”

They were wearing helmets, but she could hear their rough breathing.

“It9;s amazing. How clearly I can make out our opponents9; movements…”

Hearing that, the Third spoke.

But many knights had brushed away the attacks, and broken through.

配合着他的话，骑士们催马冲向敌人。

『… Lylem, you9;ve dragged those girls this far. You better take responsibility.』

他们戴着头盔，但她能听到他们粗重的呼吸声。

也许是为了不让她夺回自己的武器，他使出浑身解数，翻身下马。

Aria kicked her horse9;s stomach to urge it onwards as well, as she looked at the knight closing in.

士兵们紧随其后，向莱尔驻扎的大营进发。

Soldiers with pikes were waiting to intercept the incoming cavalry. When both sides collided, a number of knights fell from their horses, with spears in their bodies, and blood flowing out.

Perhaps so as not to let her take back her weapon, he put in all his power, and tumbled himself off his horse.

『......莱姆，你把那些女孩拖到这一步。你最好负起责任来。』

➐

她的长矛可以直接刺穿他的盔甲，而且还带有技能的硬化效果。但在他吐血的同时，他扔掉了武器，双手紧紧抓住了阿瑞雅的长矛。

当士兵们开始激战时，莱尔发出了信号。

听到这里，三世说话了。

Nearby, the Holy Knights, and the Divine Knights who9;d gone through a slight occupational change looked quite nervous before the enemy9;s advance.

A broken spear was sticking out of a chink in his armor. But Aria took her mounted stance, and let out a thrust towards her enemy.

“Attaaaacck!”

在这方面，我在泽阴的名气已经太大了。

克里特高声喊道。

And matching his words, the knights urged on their horse towards the enemy.

0;I9;ll consider it.1;

In that respect, I9;d already become much too famous in Zayin.

"混蛋！"

Aria gripped her horse9;s reins in her left hand, and cradled her right hand spear under her armpit.

I lightly patted her back, and she took her helmet in her left hand, and ran off to where her horse was tethered.

（受伤了？ 但还在！）

"正因为我信任你，我才会留在这里。敌人已经绝望了，所以不要放松警惕。"

......寨门一放下，作为桥梁，骑士们就骑着马出来攻击。

Watching her back as she straddled her horse, waiting at the ready for the enemy9;s arrival, I strongly gripped the Jewel.

一根断矛从他盔甲的缝隙中伸出。但阿瑞雅摆出骑马的姿势，向她的敌人猛刺过去。

看着她跨上马背，严阵以待敌人到来的背影，我紧紧地握住了宝石。

… Once the fortress gate lowered, and acted as a bridge, the knights came out on their horses to attack.

Aria confirmed foot soldiers of Selva nearby, relinquished her spear, and pulled out a sword at her waist.

阿瑞雅确认附近有塞尔瓦的步兵，放下长矛，拔出腰间的剑。

“I9;m not too used to using this one.”

"我不太习惯用这把剑。"

She jumped off her horse, and with her sword in one hand, she cut down the few foot soldiers coming straight at her. The glowing red gem hung at her chest allowed her the use of Skills.

她跳下马，单手持剑，砍倒了直冲而来的几名步兵。她胸前挂着的发光红色宝石让她可以使用技能。

And seeing it, the commanding officer leading the soldiers shouted out.

看到这一幕，带领士兵的指挥官大声喊道。

“She9;s a Skillholder! Surround her and take her down first!”

"她是技能持有者！包围她，先把她拿下！"

He ordered his subordinates, but Aria was smiling a bit under her helmet.

他命令自己的部下，但阿丽雅却在头盔下微微一笑。

“Too slow!”

"太慢了！"

Her own Skill… with Quick, her movements became too fast for enemy eyes to follow, and after cutting at the commanding officer, she cut down the foot soldiers around him as well.

她自己的技能......有了 "快"，她的动作变得太快，敌人的眼睛根本跟不上，在砍倒指挥官后，她又把他周围的步兵也砍倒了。

Her dime-a-dozen sword had become completely unusable from the chipping of the edge, and the blood covering it.

她那把一毛钱一打的剑已经完全不能用了，因为剑刃已经崩裂，上面沾满了鲜血。

Perhaps she could still use it as a blunt weapon, but Aria hadn9;t polished her blunt-weapon handling skills up too much.

也许她还能把它当作钝器使用，但阿瑞雅还没有把她的钝器操作技巧打磨得太精湛。

There, a single knight came out before her.

“Invader… be cut down by my blade!”

Aria suddenly leapt to the side, as a shockwave swallowed up the surrounding grass. Aria was able to use a similar Skill, but the similar yet different Skill caused her interest to be piqued.

In the weed-ridden ground, the foliage came up to his knees.

Saying that, she stepped in, and used a Skill. Quick.

His sword was of splendid craftsmanship. It was even possible it was a Magic Tool. She made the judgement as she saw her own sword hardened by her Skill was getting torn up into an unusable state.

There knight of Selva spoke.

（这个人很强！）

说着，她走了进去，使用了一个技能。快速。

但她对手的剑却完好无损。

当阿瑞雅把弓打到一边时，她的对手从马上跳下来，落地，瞄准了她。

阿瑞雅试图后退以拉开距离，但骑士的姿势改变了，他用剑抵住了对面的臀部。

在那里，一个骑士走到了她的面前。

身体强化......

The enemy knight… he surely had experience, but his swordplay was by the book. He had likely made it through up to now with his strength and Skill.

On her enemy9;s words, Aria laughed.

在杂草丛生的地面上，树叶一直长到他的膝盖。

As her enemy closed the distance, Aria used her dagger-turned-short spear to block, before kicking him off.

Aria tried to retreat to make some distance, but the knight9;s stance changed to hold his sword against his opposite hip.

武器硬化......

拿起剑碰撞了几下之后，阿瑞雅觉得自己在对方的体力面前处于劣势。

阿瑞雅突然向旁边一跃，一股冲击波吞没了周围的草地。咏叹调也能使用类似的技能，但相似又不同的技能引起了她的兴趣。

敌人的骑士......他肯定有经验，但他的剑法是照本宣科。他很可能凭借自己的力量和技能撑到了现在。

（它来了！）

0;This one9;s strong!1;

Aria tossed aside her sword, and drew the dagger she kept at the back of her hip. And retrieving a stick with her right hand, she swiftly fastened the dagger9;s hilt to its end.

透过面罩，骑士瞪着阿瑞雅。

He had pierced a single knight of Zayin with his spear, before discarding it, pulling out his sword, and trying to lower it at Aria.

"入侵者......被我的剑斩杀！"

他的剑工艺精湛。甚至有可能是一件法器。当她看到自己那把经过技能淬炼的剑被撕裂成无法使用的状态时，她做出了这样的判断。

Yet he was moving around quite freely in his armor, as he locked blades with Aria.

当敌人拉近距离时，阿瑞雅用匕首变成的短矛格挡，然后一脚把他踢开。

“And you9;re too well mannered!”

Under her helmed, perhaps Aria was having fun, as she laughed.

After clashing a few times with her picked up sword, Aria felt she was at a disadvantage against her opponent9;s physical strength.

“Slash.”

"你也太有风度了！"

“Amazing. How much do those go for?”

阿瑞雅把剑扔到一边，拔出了腰间的匕首。她用右手拿起一根木棍，迅速地将匕首的刀柄固定在木棍的末端。

向前迈出一大步后。

在她的头盔下，也许咏叹调玩得很开心，因为她笑了。

Aria tried to jump into his chest area, but he closed in the distance at the same time. Her Skill-reinforced sword let off sparks, and the blade chipped away.

Weapon hardening…

Through his visor, the knight glared at Aria.

然而，当他与阿瑞雅对峙时，他穿着盔甲，行动自如。

塞尔瓦骑士说话了。

随着她动作的变化，敌方骑士勉强躲过了她的攻击，甚至还进行了反击。他有足够的能力跟上她的加速动作，因此阿瑞雅使用了另一个技能。

"你知道怎么用你的腿，女人！"

她捡起地上的一把剑，将自己的剑插在剑上，打量着周围的环境。塞尔瓦的士兵们正用恐惧的目光看着她。

“You know how to use your legs, woman!”

听了敌人的话，咏叹调笑了起来。

0;It9;s coming!1;

She picked up a sword off the ground, pierced her own sword in in its place, and took in her surroundings. With eyes of fear, the soldiers of Selva were looking at her.

And after taking a big step forward.

"太神奇了。这些要卖多少钱？"

When Aria hit the bow aside, her opponent jumped down from his horse, landed, and set his aim on her.

As her movements changed, the enemy knight coughed her attack, and even countered. He had enough ability to keep up with her accelerated movements, so Aria made use of another Skill.

他用长矛刺穿了一名扎因骑士，然后扔掉长矛，拔出长剑，试图向阿瑞雅刺去。

But her opponent9;s sword was perfectly intact.

“Very nice. I9;ve never really gotten the chance to go against a Skillholder.”

Body strengthening…

"很好。我还真没机会和技能持有者对决呢。"

阿瑞雅试图扑向他的胸口部位，但他同时也拉近了距离。她的技能强化剑放出火花，剑刃崩裂。

"砍"。

The first time she saw the Skill was when Lyle had gone to subjugate bandits. The bandit leader had stolen her red gem, and had shown off the use of the Skill.

她第一次看到这个技能是在莱尔去征服强盗的时候。强盗首领抢走了她的红色宝石，并炫耀了技能的使用方法。

But the Slash Aria used wasn9;t the same one the bandit let out. In sharpness, and destructive power, with Aria9;s physical ability, and talent, it had all been dragged much higher.

但咏叹调使用的斩击与强盗发出的斩击并不相同。无论是锋利程度，还是破坏力，以咏叹调的体能和天赋，都被拉高了许多。

The knight opened his eyes wide, as Aria9;s short spear cut a deep gash into his plate armor.

骑士睁大了眼睛，因为阿瑞雅的短矛在他的板甲上划出了一道深深的口子。

By her feint, his own sword only cut fruitlessly through the air.

在她的佯攻下，他自己的剑只是在空中无果地划过。

Blood poured out of his helmet, and when Aria withdrew her short spear, it flowed from his abdomen as well. Her body was splashed with the blood spurt.

鲜血从他的头盔中涌出，当阿丽亚收回短矛时，鲜血也从他的腹部流出。她的身上溅满了喷涌而出的鲜血。

The collapsing knight addressed her.

倒下的骑士向她说话。

“T-tell me your name.”

"告诉我你的名字。"

And Aria replied.

阿瑞雅回答道。

“It9;s Aria Lockwarde.”

"我是阿瑞雅-洛克沃德。"

While she couldn9;t see the knight9;s face, she felt he was smiling. And he looked around.

"......这是我们的损失。如果你要从战场上偷武器......不如用我的吧。还有阿瑞雅......"

But what she couldn9;t believe on the report form was the numbers.

（地狱吗......但这一幕又是另一个地狱。）

"下次见面......将在地狱。"

Creit was good at faithfully fulfilling whatever was asked, but only performed average when the situation called for him to make a decision himself. No, even lower than average, perhaps.

Normally, as long as supplies lasted, the defending side had the advantage in a fortress battle.

In truth, Lorphys had done much the same to a fortress of Selva.

With her spoils of war in hand, she heard the soldiers raise a cry of victory.

克里特擅长忠实地完成任何要求，但在需要他自己做决定的情况下，他的表现只能算一般。不，也许比平均水平还低。

是夜。

“The next time we meet… will be in hell.”

Looking at the fortress, she saw they had raised the white flag of surrender. And watching it wave, she gripped the sword, and thought.

Around them, the ones who9;d come out to attack were being slain, and many were surrendering themselves.

"他不是普通人。作为一名骑士，作为一名将军，他是一流的......是个天才。"

Reading down the report, she saw the name of Creit, of whom she hadn9;t the chance to invite to her side.

“… They purposely gave Creit all the achievements. I do admit if you use him like this, he9;ll shine quite nicely.”

She offered a short prayer to the deceased knight. And she accepted his sword. She took off his scabbard as well, and after inspecting it, she found it really was a Magic Tool.

And in all actuality, Lorphys had pushed through with numbers.

拿着战利品，她听到士兵们发出了胜利的呐喊。

阿莱特从未想过莱尔会是这样一位骑士，但在那里，问题浮出了水面。

"他们连一万人都没有？更重要的是，他们基本上是用四千人的部队打下来的......按最低估计，敌人应该有两三千人。所以你是说，他们是用这些兵力打下来的？"

Around, the bodies of Selvian knights and soldiers. And though less than those from Selva, the corpses of Zayin9;s knights and soldiers were littered around as well…

读下报告，她看到了克里特的名字，她还没有机会邀请他加入自己的阵营。

0;Hell, is it… but this scene is yet another hell.1;

"......我只能把它当作一把制作精良的剑来使用。我听说，否则它会干扰我的宝石技能。"

Quite a few conditions were necessary, but even so, with only a little more troops, it wasn9;t a situation that would work out so easily.

他砍下了将军的头颅，立下了汗马功劳。

在他们周围，出来攻击的人被杀死了，许多人自己投降了。

但她无法相信的是报告表上的数字。

通常情况下，只要补给充足，守城一方就能在要塞战中占据优势。

她向逝去的骑士做了简短的祈祷。她接受了他的剑。她把剑鞘也取了下来，检查后发现这真的是一把魔法工具。

而实际上，洛菲斯已经用数字说话了。

Creit9;s strong and weak points were known to her. She knew, them, but didn9;t try to invite him herself.

周围，是塞尔维亚骑士和士兵的尸体。虽然比塞尔维少，但扎因骑士和士兵的尸体也到处都是......

“They don9;t even have ten thousand? What9;s more, they brought it down with essentially four thousand troops… at the lowest estimate, the enemy should have numbered two to three thousand. So you9;re telling me they brought it down with those numbers?”

Letting out a sign, she straightened out the clenched papers, and neatly folded them… there, it came to her.

克雷特的强项和弱点她都知道。她知道这些，但并没有亲自去邀请他。

As the light of the lantern lit up her tent, Alette gripped the document in both hands. The small number of days wasn9;t the problem.

相当多的条件是必要的，但即便如此，仅凭多一点点的兵力，也不是那么容易解决的局面。

"那为什么华特家族要赶他走？他似乎没有什么特别的问题，但是......女性关系？他对不该碰的女人动手动脚了吗？有可能这几天我得提醒一下皇室公主。"

➐

Alette received the notice as well, and when she heard the specifics of it, she was shocked.

Alette never thought Lyle to be a knight of such caliber, but there, the question surfaced.

He had taken the general9;s head, and performed the greatest service, or so it was written.

“… I can only really use it as a well-made sword. I9;ve heard that it9;ll interfere with my gem9;s Skills otherwise.”

事实上，洛菲斯也曾对塞尔瓦要塞做过同样的事情。

她是这么评价克里特的，要想利用好他，你必须是个相当出色的将军。

但阿莱特注意到了。

“… It is our loss. If you9;re going to steal a weapon off the battleground… you might as well use mine instead. And Aria…”

But Alette had noticed.

"......他们故意把所有的功绩都给了克里特。我承认，如果你这样使用他，他一定会大放异彩的。"

她望着要塞，看到他们已经升起了投降的白旗。看着白旗飘扬，她握紧了宝剑，心想

虽然她看不到骑士的脸，但她感觉到他在微笑。他环顾四周。

“Then why did the Walt House drive him out? It didn9;t seem that he had any particular problems, but… female relations? Did he lay hands on a woman he shouldn9;t have? It9;s possible. I have to warn the royal princess one of these days.”

当灯笼的光照亮她的帐篷时，阿莱特双手紧握着文件。天数少不是问题。

阿瑞雅一直警惕着周围，因为她听到了骑士的最后一句话。

You needed to be quite a general to make good use of Creit, or so she appraised the man.

Aria kept wary of her surroundings, as she heard the knight9;s final words.

It was night.

… The news that came to Lorphys9; camp, was the truth that Zayin had breached through a border fortress within three days.

“He9;s not ordinary. As a knight, and as a general, he9;s first class… a genius of sorts.”

......传到洛菲斯营地的消息，是扎因在三天内攻破边境要塞的真相。

...阿莱特也收到了通知，当她听到通知的具体内容时，不禁大吃一惊。

她打了个手势，理了理紧握的文件，整齐地叠好......在那里，她想到了。

“No, wait! He9;s an upfront womanizer, and if he9;ll even lay hands on people he shouldn9;t… the royal princess… even Annerinne san… if it comes to that, then Lorphys will be…!”

"不，等等！他是个不折不扣的花花公子，如果他连不该碰的人都下手......皇室公主......甚至安奈琳桑......如果真到了那一步，那洛菲斯就......！"

With a flash of inspiration, Alette immediately went off to consult with her adjutant. She leapt out of the tent, and in the now-vacant space, the report she had abandoned leisurely drifted down to the floor…

艾莱特灵机一动，立刻去请示副官。她纵身跃出帐篷，在此时的空地上，被她遗弃的报告悠悠地飘落在地上......
