I Regressed to My Ruined Family Chapter 294

# After returning, the family was ruined (295)

The sight of the 30,000 army marching was a spectacular sight. A military force that continues with no end in sight. The command center was located in the front row.

It was Myers who took command of the 1,000 knights. As the second-in-command, Nerian took on the role of assisting Ethan, the commander-in-chief.

Isera was also the one who participated in the war. Now she was truly a transcendent person. Just leaving it alone was a loss of power.

Ilya also participated in this war. In the role of the communications general wizard who will maintain the front line. She was in charge of commanding the wizards who volunteered from each kingdom.

In addition, there were intelligence agents organized in the form of special forces. Their role was simple. Assassinate a factor causing disruption to the rear and take advantage of the confusion to infiltrate Dragonia’s interior.

Dragonia was practically an unknown land. Although Sylvia spread her eyes and ears throughout the kingdom, her influence did not reach the dragon kingdom. If you think about it, it was natural.

To head to Dragonia, you had to travel along a long sea route.

As if that wasn’t enough, having to break through the strict surveillance of the dragons was an added bonus. It was too far and too rough a land to plant intelligence agents.

Moreover, since it had been silent for such a long time, there would have been no reason to plant it.

But now things have changed.

First, the situation where Dragonia is invaded. If they weren’t stupid, they wouldn’t just sit back and watch after the invasion.

Either resolve the confusion later and launch a counterattack or carry out an operation.

There must be something moving.

Considering that, Dragonia also needed eyes and ears.

There were two people that I could spot with my eyes and ears. Decal and Theron boast the most outstanding skills in the black society.

The two of them would be able to relay information while avoiding the dragon clan’s surveillance network. Moreover, decisively.

‘If a fight breaks out between a demon dragon and a monarch…’

If information is relayed, wouldn’t it be possible to take advantage of the confusion and attack someone in the back? The battle between the demon dragon and the monarch will at least not be one-sided. It wasn’t just the demon dragon that could stab him in the back.

‘If I do well, I might get a chance.’

It would be nice if it worked.

If it doesn’t work, there’s nothing you can do about it.

Having eyes and ears planted also had that meaning. Once you plant it, it won’t be that difficult to contact you. I brought Ilya along to make the process run smoothly. A top-level crafting wizard of the 9th rank. Even if there was an ocean between Dragonia and Heidern, it was not impossible to create a communication network between them.

It’s been about a month since the departure ceremony and departure. With a steady march, the army that moved south soon encountered the sea. There were already numerous ships waiting at sea. A huge fleet capable of carrying 30,000 people.

This was possible not only because of the ships Heidern had, but also because each kingdom received ship support.

The Kingdom of Limedell, the country right next door.

Desert Kingdom Deacon.

Following the Ice Kingdom Crotel and finally the Zeno Empire.

The fleet now visible was composed of ships supported by four countries. In other words, this was the same as saying that at least three of the seven kingdoms agreed with the church.

And that too with a very proactive attitude.

‘Otherwise there would be no reason to support the ship.’

Is there any country that wants war with Dragonia?

Is it possible?

From my memory, Dragonia was a fairly rich land, but it was also a land teeming with dragons, the natural enemies of humans. I must have witnessed that fear clearly ten years ago. It wouldn’t be very pleasant to raid a still beehive.

Nevertheless, the ship was supported. And that too without any special cost. This would have been impossible without the influence of the Demon Dragon.

I felt an eerie feeling again. If they hadn’t received the oath from the Demon Dragon, those four countries could have been stabbed.

‘I can’t hit it now, though.’

If it hits you, directly or indirectly, up to half of your mana will evaporate. In that case, even if it meant killing oneself, it would be a loss-making business.

Half of the magical power that the Absolute has built up throughout his life. Because it was an extremely heavy price. Moreover, the mana that disappeared due to the oath did not simply disappear with volatile properties. In fact, it was close to eternal extinction. Half of the power you have is gone, but who would want such a situation?

“Let’s check the boat.”

“yes!”

At Ethan’s word, nearly a thousand knights moved. The knights boldly took off their armor and jumped into the sea, diving down and starting to check the bottom of the ship. This was to prevent any problems that might arise. As if that wasn’t enough, soldiers began to be deployed to the deck.

Only after going through a meticulous verification process were all troops boarded the ship. Food to feed 30,000 troops was also loaded. If it had not been for the rapid development of the granary area, food would have had to be imported from all over.

Fortunately, with the help of the elves, this year’s food production exploded, and simply blocking exports was enough to create enough reserves.

As if that wasn’t enough, Ethan had added one more safety device. High elf Irina was brought along on this advance.

She was holding a branch of the world tree, Mshiron. The World Tree was a tree with such powerful vitality that even a wasteland could be transformed into fertile soil overnight. The only entity that could directly communicate with the World Tree was the High Elf.

‘If it’s a long game, plant branches.’

Branches of the world tree. Its role was simple. Making the surrounding area fertile. Of course, since it was a branch that was part of the world tree, its vitality was not infinite. Even if you plant it in Dragonia, it will not be able to grow on its own without Irina’s constant care.

Still, it didn’t matter.

Because I wasn’t moving to hand over a gift package to Dragonia in the first place. Quickly converting a certain area into fertile soil and planting seeds on it to grow food in a short period of time.

That was Ethan’s goal.

According to Irina, when the power of the branches is utilized to its full potential, fast-harvesting seeds can be grown until edible in about three days at most. In that case, the time the eggplant could remain alive would have been at most fifteen days.

In other words, it was said that within 15 days, food could be harvested five times to feed 30,000 people.

What if you eat it sparingly?

‘Even if I can’t do it, I can buy a month’s time.’

It was one of the means to be used in case there was a disruption in supply.

From supply to military numbers and morale to its qualitative aspects. Preparations to strike Dragonia are complete.

This number will not be able to overthrow the Dragon people’s nation, but it will at least be enough to cause confusion and disturbance. Ethan, who climbed onto the largest ship, pointed straight ahead and shouted.

[All army! Let’s set sail towards the south! The destination is the dragon nation full of our enemies!]

“Waaah!”

“The Commander-in-Chief’s order has been given! “Everyone row!”

Tendons sprouted on the arms of thousands of boatmen. Nearly a hundred oars per ship began to stir the sea. Before long, the fleet began to enter the ocean.

Dragonia.

To be precise, this country was located in the Southern Continent. Although it is marked on the map as the Southern Continent, it is actually a bit awkward to call it a continent.

The reason was simple.

This was because the land located in the south was not large enough to be called a continent.

A land mass that reduces the Western Continent by about 1/7. However, it was too large to be called an island, and there was almost no land mass in the south, so it was eventually called a continent.

Originally, various races lived in tribes, but many things have changed since the dragon lord appeared fifty years ago.

Lord Draksis not only completely integrated the dragon race, but also captured the other races of the southern continent one by one and made them slaves.

As time passed, the Southern Continent was largely reorganized into two powers. The Yongin race and other races other than the Yongin race that are treated as slaves.

In the beginning, numerous rebellions broke out, but the brutal rule eventually forced the tribes to raise their white flag.

For more than twenty years, the Southern Continent enjoyed a bloody peace under the rule of the Dragon Clan.

Even if it was an accident, all it ended up being was a bunch of bloodthirsty dragons killing each other.

Therefore, it was not that strange that the discipline of the dragons guarding the coastline of Dragonia was lax. Even before the creation of the nation of Dragonia, the number of humans infiltrating along the coastline was almost non-existent.

This was because the notoriety of the Yongin tribe living in the Southern Continent was widespread among the humans of that time. Do not visit the southern continent unless you wish to commit suicide.

In fact, true to the proverb, the dragons living along the coastline ate every human they could find.

It was an opportunity for the notoriety to spread even further.

The humans of the Western Continent strictly observed this maxim. Moreover, countries other than individuals did not have the capacity to invade the Southern Continent at the time.

Even at that time, the Western Continent had seven kingdoms and an empire quietly checking each other and maintaining a balance of power. In the present, such a trend has become even stronger.

As if that wasn’t enough, he personally experienced the invasion of the dragon tribes and felt their power firsthand.

Therefore, the number of humans visiting the southern continent is virtually inevitable.

There have been a few truly unfortunate cases where a tattered boat with humans on board was washed away by the current. In fact, it was a day no different from a festival for the coast guards. It was a day when plenty of delicious meat was served on the table.

Therefore, the coastal guards would still pray earnestly while looking at the peaceful coastline. I hope humans will come rushing in. If you are a little more greedy, I hope that a large shipwreck will be anchored on the shore.

An ordinary sight that can be said to be unique only with the waves rolling, the sea breeze blowing, and the occasional fish jumping out.

Suddenly, I began to see a dark shape waving in the distant sea.

―Kuroo?

Is it really a boat?

The yellow pupils of the guards sparkled. If it were a ship with humans on board, tonight’s hard work would be rewarded with a festival. Old experiences began to stimulate their salivary glands.

There was no sense of caution.

No, there wasn’t.

Until a dark figure fully entered their field of vision.

―…!

After less than five minutes of drooling, questions slowly began to appear in the guards’ pupils. The dark figure was approaching the shoreline very quickly. Even from a small watchtower located far away, a huge amount of wind blowing towards the coastline could be felt.

It was never a natural wind.

Soon, a cry of astonishment came from the mouths of the guards. That wasn’t a shipwreck or anything. Where in the world are wrecks made up of hundreds of ships?

My heart began to beat rapidly and was emitting a loud warning sound.

Warning screams erupted from all directions. And that too for a moment…

Pow!

Hundreds of ships began spewing fire. A huge amount of cannons were destroying the dragon tribe’s habitat.

War!

It’s war!

Before long, tens of thousands of troops began to enter the coastline filled with the scent of blood.
