Plain Girl Hero of Darkness
Black Flower Dancing on the Death Line - (7)

"You*ngsek! Are you going to fight !? Do you want to fight with me !!?"

"Wait!? That's not what I meant! It's just using Olivia's ugliness, no, her reputation as part of our plan! Thanks to that, the enemy has stopped their attacks!"

Ashton was surprised, and pointed to the foot of the hill while shaking his head.

Claudia felt she had just said something disrespectful, but it was true that the enemy had stopped in his tracks, gawking at the banner in the distance.

Olivia clapped her hands, drawing their attention to her.

“Don't overdo it, okay? Ashton was right, the enemy has stopped. This is a good opportunity to save the Second Army."

“Hah, huh.. Yes Mdm! I'm sorry for losing my composure! —I'll remember this, Ashton, prepare your ears to catch my sermon later.”

(Nyoba make cool sentences. Ahaha.)

“But why... Anyway, everything went according to plan, what do we do now?”

Ashton who was finally free from Claudia tidied up his collar and asked.

“From what I've seen, Sun Knight is great in group combat. They were stronger than Crimson Knights in that aspect. "

Conversely, the Crimson Knight was better at individual combat. Sun Knight is strong in their synergy and teamwork.

"so. Their movements were smoother than Crimson Knight's, and they were better trained overall. That's obvious."

"Yes, but in this world, one's strength is closely related to their weakness."

""Weakening?""

The two voices asked at the same time, and looked at each other. Claudia pretended to cough and said:

“May I know what their specific weaknesses are? I can't see weakness ..."

“I feel the same way as First Lieutenant Claudia. It's hard for me to imagine that formation could be broken."

“Hmmm ~ So that's how you two see it.”

“Did you see something different, Major?”

“Yes, I think Sun Knight is too used to group fights. Once they lose their commander, they will be slow to react to changes.”

“So we will disrupt their command system by killing the commander. Olivia, you're saying that's our way to victory?"

"Yes that's right."

Olivia crouched down, and drew a circle with a twig. Claudia and Ashton crouched down beside her.

“First, we will proceed as planned. My slave body - Ellis - would lead 3,000 people to pretend to attack to the right. And of course, we need to make sure the fake ones are not revealed. You two will use this opportunity to attack the rear of the enemy with 2,000 soldiers. The other troops will attack with me from the left."

He drew three small circles, drawing a line from those small circles towards the big circle.

“We need to inform the Second Army about our plans. The commander of the Second Army seems to be very capable, should be able to regroup as we fight the enemy. What say?"

“If this works, we can attack enemies from all sides.

Ashton muttered as he looked at the map.

"I don't mind."

Claudia nodded.

“Then it's done! Send an envoy to the Second Army post immediately. We have to move, too."

““ Yes Mdm !! ””

Both stood up and saluted.

At Olivia's behest, the fight officially begins.

Patrick’s Army Basecamp

Seeing the waves of commotion in his unit getting louder and louder, Patrick clicked his tongue unhappily.

The silver-haired girl with dark armor suddenly appeared on the hill, and looked calmly at the plains. Beside him was a dark flag with a skull and two crossed scythes.

It was clear that he was the greatest threat to the Empire at the moment, the rumored Death God Olivia.

There is only one person who will brandish an unpleasant bebdera.

Patrick's voice was filled with disgust.

“So it was the Death God Olivia.”.

Ares said with cold sweat on his brows.

The Empire never expected the Death God Olivia, part of the Seventh Army, to appear in the Central War Theater. Patrick had read Gaier's report that some officers called 《The Death God Memoirs》.

He was a fearsome opponent who toyed with Crimson Knight, and injured Rosenmarie. But on the other hand, this was a good opportunity to kill the Death God Olivia.

“Ares, send a message to Brigadier General Christoph. He had to lead 7,000 Sun Knights to handle the Death God unit."

“7,000 !? But we have less than 10,000 Sun Knights with us."

Ares stared with his eyes wide open, which clearly showed just how abnormal Patrick's orders were.

"really so. We cannot take the God of Death lightly. Gather the rider from the Sun Knight and pin him on the hill."

"But the Second Army has not been defeated. If we send all the Knights…"

Ares did not say it out loud, but clearly he did not agree with Patrick's plan.

"You don't believe me?"

“... Forgive my brashness.”

"All will be well. We just need to destroy the Second Army with the rest of our troops."

“I don't agree with that. Even if the Second Army is on the verge of defeat, we must ensure your safety, Your Majesty."

Patrick knows what Ares wants to say. He's worried that if anything happens to Patrick, the whole unit will go awry.

Since ancient times, an army that lost its commander has never won any battle. A classic example is the death of a southern soldier when General Osborne was killed in action last year. As an adjutant, it was only natural that Ares was worried.

"You have a point, but let me ask you, is it possible to fight safely completely?"

Patrick lifted the corner of his lips.

“Sigh... I already have an idea, but His Majesty can sometimes be very evil. Then I'll be frank, misleading as it's useless."

Ares was not calm at all. At this moment, a bodyguard walked out. He was the captain of the escort unit, Captain Sieghard.

"Major Ares has a point to worry about, but don't worry. If His Majesty falls in danger, the escort unit will protect him with our lives."

As Sieghard said that, the bodyguards around them knelt down.

“That's. Besides, I still have this sword to protect myself."

Patrick pulled Sabre by his waist, and lifted him up high. The sunlight reflected it brilliantly.

A dealer sells a weapon that looks like a work of art to Patrick. He said that this was a peerless weapon from another continent, with a single sword eye as well as its blade slightly curved backwards.

True to the merchant's words, the sword was extremely sharp, and Patrick carried it at a high price when he saw what it could do.

Ares stared at Patrick's sword, then stood up straight and saluted:

"I understand. Once you make a decision, Your Majesty will not budge. I'll call Brigadier General Christoph."

“We don't know what the God of Death is planning. Tell him to keep his guard up."

"Yes sir!"

Fraud Detachment, Main Base

Ellis could not help but laugh when she saw the Sun Knight's movements.

“The fools thought I was Olivia-Oneesama, and chased our movement. Oh my God, do I look like Olivia-Oneesama? Kufufu.”
