Chapter 378 - If I Come Back Alive
<Author’s Notes>
We received one new review since the last update. Thank you very much.
From last night until this morning, there was a bit of heavy rain.
Now, although clouds remain, the rain has stopped.
The undergrowth of the plain, covered in morning dew, shimmered in the sunlight.
The wind brushing against my skin feels cool and refreshing.
In the clear and pure air, a messenger arrived with a report.
[The Brilliant Squadron deployed on the left flank has engaged the enemy’s Sacrament Army!]
Our destination, the Royal Capital Enoh, was now close at hand.
A short while ago, the Sacrament Army deployed around the Royal Capital began attacking us.
In response, the Goddess Subjugation Army also moved out to repel them.
Fortunately, there were no giant Sacraments among the enemy this time.
[Judging from the “lack” of enemies…… They might have redirected their main Sacrament units toward destroying the Sacred Eye.]
Perhaps it’s because we’ve fought together for so long……
The morale of the subjugation army has become quite high compared to the beginning.
Of course, we’ve also accumulated fatigue from our march, but the morale is unexpectedly high.
If Vysis is maintaining a defensive posture……
It would be helpful not to consume the Heroes’ MP here.
About an hour has passed since the start of the battle.
The battle outside the Royal Capital hasn’t dragged on much, and it seems to be coming to an end.
It could be said that the Goddess Subjugation Army has won decisively.
Now, I suppose we’re proceeding to clean up the rest.
[It was written that the neighboring countries would gather their forces in Azziz, including Wright and the others, and defend Azziz with all their might. Considering the time difference due to the flight speed of a military war pigeon, it wouldn’t be strange if they clashed with the army aiming for the Sacred Eye’s destruction by now.]
At that moment……
[Touka!]
Eve came riding on a horse.
[There’s a reaction from Liz’s familiar! She has something urgent to report!]
I prepared the character board and together with Eve, we moved to the carriage.
And then, I listened to Liz’s report inside.
[———-As expected, Vysis and the Divine Servants seem to intend to barricade themselves in that labyrinth to buy time.]
From what I heard, all the Divine Servants are staying by Vysis’ side.
In other words, none of them had gone to Jonato.
Should I consider that fortunate or not?
However, Vysis doesn’t seem to have been nervous about that.
Perhaps, her mind was preoccupied with other matters.
Or perhaps———— she thought it didn’t matter where they fled to since they were doomed to perish anyway.
On the other hand, there were still some people remaining in the Royal Capital.
However, with the appearance of that eerie dome, they must have become increasingly anxious.
[There still seem to be residents of the Royal Capital inside the Genesis Labyrinth.]
Loqierra commented.
[……Saving everyone inside that is just unrealistic.]
However, the realism of such an action aside, would Sogou still want to save everyone?
……I should probably take that into account as well.
The refugees were being handled under Cattleya’s leadership.
The preview screening will be held on May 19th at the Grand Cinema Sunshine Ikebukuro. (The four main cast members who were announced earlier are also scheduled to attend.) If you’re interested (tickets will be distributed by lottery), please consider attending. (You can check the details on the official website.)
……It’s quite moving to think about how the announcement for the first PV came in this chapter, especially considering the last line spoken by Touka in the PV. Once again, I express my gratitude to everyone who has been with us this far.
We’ll take a short break for the next chapter and plan to update on May 10th (Friday), around 9:00 pm.
Us authors don’t seem to have a Golden Week that was just like the others, but I hope everyone else enjoys theirs.
