The members of Earlshide Kingdom’s military had been given new weapons. They were in a form no one had ever seen before.
The Soldiers who received the weapons were exchanging their impressions.
“Hey, have you tried the new sword?”
“Yeah, the sharpness of the blade receives a passing grade. However, this weapon… is completely combat-oriented.”
“There is no decoration, it’s a weapon that emphasizes practical use…”
“A sword where one can replace the blade while in the middle of a battlefield is indeed effective. When one is provided with this kind of weapon…”
“…It gives off a feeling that the war is finally going to begin…”
There was no decoration whatsoever. A single sword which can slaughter enemy upon enemy. A weapon which effectively emphasizes the killing of enemies. The Soldiers felt uplifted to received such a powerful weapon, along with the complicated feelings of excitement and fear that accompany war.
Thus, with the provision of new weapons, the collection of necessary supplies, the military men scattered from various places, converging into one. Having left only the bare minimum personnel to respond in case of demon invasion, and other tasks such as the recruitment of volunteers, the troops were now all well-equipped, and ready at any given time.
And then scouts who had been lurking in the Empire brought reports.
“Reporting! The Blueshpere Imperial army has started to march towards our Kingdom!”
Despite the tension among the upper echelon, there was no confusion when the report was given. Or rather, they had been expecting this, and the King immediately issued a royal command.
“Everyone has heard it? The Empire apparently sees an opportunity. Against such a foolish act, our Kingdom has no other choice but to confront them! Let us show the Empire the strength of our Earlshide Kingdom! All armies, move out!”
The Empire had finally made their move. Because of their movement, the Kingdom responded. However, the declaration of war had yet to arrive. Because the Empire had made an act of aggression towards one of its neighboring countries one-sidedly, the country’s mobilization of their army was a legitimate action.
And so, Earlshide decreed that they were sending out their troops.

“The Kingdom has finally dispatched their troops.”
Alice called out when I arrived at the academy that day, as she had arrived earlier.
“You’re right. That’s all everyone in town is talking about.”
The Kingdom had already made the announcement, and it was also on the newspapers. And thus, everyone in the Kingdom knew.
Since the time of war had arrived, as expected, the people’s commotion over me had died down, and I was able to walk around town on the way to the academy.
“In the end, I wonder how many troops have been deployed?”
“Both the Kingdom and the Empire have a total of 80,000, each.”
“Hmm, I guess they are evenly matched.”
“However, there’s something strange about it.”
“Strange?”
“Ah, from what we know so far, the Empire’s total troops has 80,000 people.”
“An all-out war, the Empire is desperate.”
“That’s not the point I’m getting at. In order for our Kingdom to have the same numbers, we recruited mercenaries, and volunteers from the Demon Hunter Association.”
“Heehh, as expected, the Empire really focuses on their military.”
“Not really, even the Kingdom has that many people in the military.”
“Huh? Then why recruit volunteers and mercenaries?”
“It’s because the Kingdom didn’t summon all of their troops. They left a number of people behind in order to deal with demons, just in case. Because of that, we didn’t have enough people and recruited more.”
“Eh? But the Empire deployed everyone, right? What about dealing with demons?”
“That’s why I said it’s strange. They have left their Empire defenseless against demons and marched towards the Kingdom. Why is that?”
“Did the Empire also hire mercenaries?”
“We have confirmed that the Empire has not recruited any mercenaries. They have summoned all of their troops from all across the Empire.”
“Seriously, they are defenseless against demons.”
“What is the Empire thinking?”
Because Gus was making a complicated expression, everyone remained silent.
“This is just a thought… but do you think this is what Schtrom wants?”
“What do you mean?”
“Well, you see, didn’t Schtrom have a variety of experiments? I was wondering whether or not demon control is included in his experiments.”
“…I see, Schtrom is originally a citizen from the Empire. “Originally, ” so there’s a possibility that he was sent as a spy by the Empire.”
“Is that’s so, then the Empire can focus entirely on war and not have to worry about demon invasion.”
“There’s a high possibility…”
“But if that were the case, there are also things that doesn’t make sense.”
“I thought it made a lot of sense?”
“What about Artificial Devils?”
“Ah… I see, there hasn’t been any report of it made yet…”
“If a devil joins the Imperial Army, there would be an uproar.”
“We’re back to… square one.”
“Well, no matter how much we speculate, we won’t be of much help. So let’s just do what we can. We might understand the Empire’s real intentions that way, as well.”
“…That’s right, let us just do what we are capable of doing…”
“That’s how it is. Also, I was thinking we should start with practicing practical magic, what do you guys think?”
“Are you finally going to teach how to use Gate?”
“That’s right, that will also be included.”
“Recently, my magic powers have increased! As I thought, is it because of magic control practice?”
Everyone had finally understood the importance of magic control practice, and their collective magic power increased. Just the other day, grandpa showed them he could use Gate, and everyone’s motivation had risen with the knowledge that they could also use my magic. Thus, they began to seriously practice magic control. With this, it seems it’ll be fine to teach them magic.
“Well then, let’s also do our best today in the research society~!”
“Before that, it’s class time, Corner.”
“Ah! That’s right.”
“You guys… what do you guys think you’re coming to school for…”
Alfred-sensei entered the classroom and sighed. We’re still properly attending classes, right?
