A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War!

Three days after The Armis Family had been informed of the territory dispute, communication came from the capital.

In summary, the Markain family claimed that they hadn’t killed Vyarolf, but since he had gone missing from the Markain territory, the capital temporarily allowed the territory dispute, and an investigation team would be dispatched soon for a thorough inquiry.

The most crucial point here was that the temporary territory dispute had been allowed.

“It begins. Linda, what happened to the soldiers?”

Linda’s expression hardened at his question.

“First, we’ve stationed all the existing soldiers in the territory outside. Administrative officials are recruiting additional soldiers, but most of the territory residents are aware of the war between the Armis family and us, so they aren’t gathering…”

“That’s unavoidable. It’s not your fault, so keep your chin up.”

Rumors of Armis nobles dying inside the Markain mansion had already spread throughout the territory via the soldiers.

Recruiting soldiers under these circumstances was difficult, but they couldn’t blame the residents.

Linda, who had just become the Markain Lord, couldn’t demand unwavering loyalty from the territory residents without offering anything in return.

Kaiyan patted Linda’s head as she looked down at the ground with her head lowered, and when he looked at Anthon, who was standing there, he opened his mouth with a tense expression.

“Kaiyan, as you mentioned, no one except Anthon should know the fact that the Vyraxar soldiers are hiding in the Perryan Forest.”

“Understood. However, what about the knights? They seem quite discontented…”

Those knights probably believed that the war between Armis and Markain had started because Kaiyan had killed Vyarolf.

“For now, we shouldn’t focus on them. Just tell them to oversee the soldiers on the city wall.”

Markain’s knights were excluded from Kaiyan’s plans.

Kaiyan couldn’t trust those guys, who hadn’t proven their loyalty or strength. Furthermore, they were very dissatisfied with him right now. It would be a relief if they didn’t find fault with this and that, even if he told them about his plans.

“Linda, go to the outer city immediately and hold your position. I’ll go meet with the Vyraxar soldiers.”

“Are you sure it’s okay to go alone? I heard that the count of Vyraxar personally led the soldiers.”

“It’s alright. If he were a Marquess, it might be different, but a Viscount isn’t a big deal. Besides, to ensure minimal damage to Markain, we need someone who can give precise signals.”

“Alright then… Please, be safe.”

Linda and Anthon watched him with apologetic looks, and he turned away from them and left the mansion, heading for the outer city.

“Kaiyan, isn’t this getting way bigger than what you originally thought?”

“In comparison to the size of the Empire, it’s a tiny matter. Apart from the Western nobles, no one will pay much attention, I think.”

“Still, of all the things Kaiyan has experienced so far, this seems to be the most interesting!”

“I’m glad you find it interesting. So, let’s finish this quickly… Hm?”

When he was almost at the outer city wall, the communicator in his hip pocket vibrated. He took out the communicator and held it in his hand.

Kaiyan felt a sudden communication from Baran.

“Barvan, what’s happening all of a sudden?”

– I contacted you because there’s some information you need to know.

“For me? What information?”

– According to the recent investigation by Hoil, the Lady Carsia has apparently contracted an assassin guild. The guild’s name is Sha…

“The Shabelle Guild?”

As soon as he mentioned the guild’s name, there was a moment of silence on the communication line. Without looking, Kaiyan could guess that Baran might be wearing an expression of surprise and wonder how he knew.

– How did you know?

“Well, they’ve been here once before.”

– Is that so? I didn’t know that… Still, it seems you’ve handled it well.

“That’s right. They weren’t that strong. When I asked them, they said my rank was D. It seems Lady Carsia doesn’t know my true abilities, right?”

– That’s correct. She only knows that you were with me. Kaiyan, be even more careful from now on. If the assassination attempt failed with the assassin guild, there could be more dangerous assassins targeting your life.

From Barvan’s voice through the communication, Kaiyan could sense a hint of regret. It seemed that he felt sorry for putting me in danger from the assassins.

“That’s my problem to handle. Are you okay, without any trouble?”

– Other than the fact that Lady Carsia and I have become even less friendly, there are no major issues.

“Then everything’s perfect. Hehe. I’m busy right now, so let’s talk again later, Barvan.”

– You’re up to something strange again somewhere, I see. Understood.

After the communication ended, Rieka clapped her front paws together in amazement.

“How did Barvan know?”

“What’s that?”

“Kaiyan, you’re doing something strange!”

“…Let’s go quickly.”

As soon as they left Markain Castle, Kaiyan summoned Blackie from his dimension and rode towards Perryan Forest.

Perryan Forest was a forest so close to the castle that one could arrive in just ten minutes by horse.

There, as prearranged, Viscount Vyraxar would be waiting with his territorial army.

“Armis Count’s face should be brightened up now.”

By now, he would probably be thinking he could obtain the gold mine. While thinking various thoughts, Kaiyan rode Blackie and continued towards Perryan Forest, where the lush trees welcomed him.

“Where could they be?”

He thought of possible locations for the soldiers in the forest.

“It’s over there.”

As he thought, a map of Perian Forest appeared in his mind, and the location where the Vyraxar soldiers were waiting was marked.

“Blackie, stay here for a moment. Don’t bother Vyarolf too much.”

For this plan, he needed Vyarolf, so he had no choice but to take him out.

However, taking a guy who had never properly learned swordsmanship outside could limit their movements.

Moreover, Kaiyan was worried that someone else might recognize Vyarolf.

However, what Kaiyan and Rieka hadn’t anticipated was that Blackie hated Vyarolf, who had entered his dimension.

The first time Vyarolf entered, he received a harsh kick from Blackie and a comical situation where he had to use one of the remaining potions.

“Alright, let’s go finish the job.”

Now, all that remained was to feed the prepared gifts to Count Armis.
