The redemption of the villain

[hateful!Damn it!Damn!Why!Why did it become like this!What am I doing wrong! ! ]

[His Majesty!Your Majesty, please calm down and don't hurt your body anymore! ]

[Go away! ]

I can't listen to anything now, like a waste, I can't help venting my anger by hitting the wall with my fist.

Last night, the Tamenas Kingdom Army suddenly launched a large-scale attack. After days and nights of fighting, our soldiers have already lost their energy. Moreover, this attack is so fierce that they are powerless to resist. After nearly a thousand casualties, they are helpless Back into the city, leaving most of the troops guarding the city gate, and I escaped back.

Yes, instead of retreating, they fled back in defeat.

After the enemy forced us back to the city, they did not choose to continue the attack. Instead, they used the wheel tactics again. About every two hours, an army would attack, and then they would retreat again when they were beaten. Most of the people died on our side, and now morale has fallen to the bottom.

I know that as long as the Tamenas Kingdom Army has that intention, they can break through the city gate and rush in at any time, but they deliberately don't do this. The purpose should be to let us suffer panic and despair before dying.They even made an announcement that their country would be completely wiped out within a month. Now the people's hearts are in chaos, and they want to fight while trying to appease the people.

Our current situation is like adults teasing children, being played by them.In a war without justice, no country is willing to save it.Have you been cornered?Is there really no way out!If my father was still alive, he might be able to tell me what to do... But now the life of the whole country is in my hands, and I can't find anyone to turn to.

Regret, helplessness, anger, grief, anxiety, all kinds of emotions are intertwined, how can I calm down.

The front is the enemy's attack in turn, and the rear is the complaints of the people.

The Kingdom of Utopudilan, which is obviously the most powerful country, lost to the mob or something.

Others said that after the death of the former king, the new king was too incompetent, but children couldn't count on it at all.

Especially those nobles, who still want to flee to other countries, and some even propose to cede half of the country's territory to the enemy as an apology, in order to reconcile.

Now I finally understand why the common people hate the nobles so much, they can even come up with such a plan for their own survival!

Since the start of the war, 7 Chinese soldiers have died at the hands of the Tamenas Kingdom Army. Why did they die? It was not to protect this country, but to protect these idiots!

A group of guys hiding in the back to eat and have fun, not to mention going to the battlefield, people who have never even held a sword are talking about all kinds of things.

When facing the survival of the country, instead of thinking about how to defend it, they are planning how to escape and how to reconcile with the enemy!

Those people seem to really think that money can solve everything. Haven't they thought that as long as the enemy completely eradicates us, the land and property of the entire Utopidilan Kingdom will be theirs?

I'd love to cut off their heads and see what's inside!

The most important thing right now is not only to resist the enemy, but also to appease the people, but who should do this.

I don't have any free time to go back to the rear to make speeches. The soldiers of the First Legion are closer to coercion than to appease the people, so as to prevent the people from falling into chaos.

I'm really at my wits end now, but in order to protect this country and the people behind me, even if I know I can't win a war, I can only bite the bullet and fight.

As long as there is one ten thousandth of hope, I will not give up.

[Your Majesty, an audience has been requested. ]

A soldier walked in from outside the tent and reported to me, who wants to see me, the commander of which army?I don't know whether to discuss the battle plan or come here to complain.

[Let him in. ]

[Yes. ]

After the soldier withdrew, a man walked in after a while.

This person can be said to be an old acquaintance of mine, and also...a former friend.

[Silde, long time no see.No, I'm sorry, I should call you His Majesty the King now. ]

[Olankis!How did you come here? ]

We really haven't seen each other for a long time, and it's the first time I've seen him since I became king.But I never thought that we would meet again on this kind of ground.

[Of course I’m here to help you, aren’t you welcome? ]

[No, I didn't mean that.I mean you shouldn't come here, this is a battlefield, it's too dangerous, the enemy may attack at any time! ]

[It's not the first time we have experienced life-threatening, besides, aren't you here too? ]

[Because I'm the king now!You have the obligation to protect the people, but you...]

[me too.I am a nobleman and a citizen of this country, is there anything wrong with protecting my country? ]

[Why can't you understand!It's dangerous here, you shouldn't be here, and you're not alone!If anything happens to you again, how should I explain to your father! ]

Orankis lowered his head and sighed, then looked back at me.

[Your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude, I am talking to you as a friend now. ]

Orankis changed from a casual look just now to a very serious attitude now.

[Silde, you said the battlefield is dangerous, but aren't there so many soldiers here?Aren't they dangerous?If you run away just because you are afraid of death, what is the difference between this and a bug who betrayed your country?Besides, your current status is the most noble king.You have gone to the battlefield in person, and whether I am your friend or a citizen of this country, I am obliged to accompany you to the end. ]

………………

This guy!Obviously we have been in a cold war for more than half a year, but in the end we met in this kind of place and said something that made me feel uncomfortable.

Regarding the matter of Orankis' mother, although I am not responsible, I am the son of the king after all.I was young or something, that's no excuse at all.

This matter has always been a knot in my heart, and I feel very guilty about Orankis.

Half a year ago, I thought our relationship had been completely broken, but today he suddenly said that he was my friend or something...

[Olankis... I...]

[I know what you want to say, but now is not the time to bring up old things again, I will settle accounts with you in the future.The most important thing now is how to resist the enemy's invasion. Although I am powerless, I want to do my part to protect the country. ]

Yes, this is Orankis.Although he is also an aristocrat, he is different from those greedy moths. He has his own ideas and can distinguish right from wrong. Like me, he hopes that the people of this country can be happy.

But now this war is destroying everything and taking countless lives.

[I see, thank you, Orankis. ]

[You're welcome, this is what I should do.Compared with those soldiers who died, my life alone is nothing.Speaking of which, it has been a long time since we have fought together like this. The last time we joined forces against the enemy was when we were fighting monsters. ]

[Yes~]

At that time there was no war, my father was still alive, and Alisa was still my fiancée...

But in just one year, everything changed.

[Olankis, I have one thing to ask you. ]

[What's up? ]

[You also know that the battle ahead is tense, and the people in the rear are panic-stricken. I am afraid that I will not be able to control it sooner or later only relying on the coercion exerted by the First Legion. If I can't control it......]

If you can't control it, you don't need the enemy to do anything, and the chaos on your side is already out of control.

[So that’s what happened~]

[Yeah, because I can't find a suitable person, and I can't get away, I can only ask you.Would you like to do me this favor? ]

[Of course I would, but... no need. ]

[unnecessary?What's the meaning? ]

[Because someone is already doing it. ]

[who is it? ]

[Your fiancée, Alisa. ]

〖Olankis Perspective〗:

I, Orankis.Since I broke up with Schild half a year ago, I have hardly spoken to him again until today.

It has been more than a month since the Kingdom of Tamenas went to war with its own country, and our side has also lost two consecutive battles.Schild personally went to the battlefield to defend the last line of defense.

Even in such a dangerous situation, he is willing to protect his own people regardless of his own danger, which is what I admire most about him.

The former king unfortunately died of illness, but now he has to shoulder the burden of protecting the country alone.How can I safely hide in my mansion when the country is in danger and when my friends are in trouble.

And now that people are panicking and the city has become a mess, they are all afraid that the enemy will attack their door, and even plan how to escape from the country, and then fly away.

Originally, I also wanted to ask Schild to find a way to appease the anxiety and anxiety of the people when I saw him, but I met that person on the road.

[…………quiet!Please be quiet!I understand that you are all scared right now, and so am I. ]

There were two girls on the square of the royal capital, the one who spoke was Alisa, and the one standing beside her was Clays.But what are they doing here?

[Everyone, I know your anxiety and uneasiness. The enemy has already fallen before our eyes. Once they break through the city, thousands of innocent people will die because of it.In order to protect us, His Majesty the King has personally gone to the forefront of the war.If we mess up our hands and feet before the enemy comes in, and we don't need the enemy to take action, we have already lost to ourselves! ]

Is this a soothing speech?

[I also know that there are still some nobles who are planning how to escape from the country, and some even want to exchange His Majesty's life in exchange for a truce with the Kingdom of Tamenas.But have you ever wondered what will happen to us if we lose His Majesty the King?Do you really think that the Kingdom of Tamenas did this only for revenge? ]

………………

[Is not it? ]

[The new king is also a child after all, unreliable. ]

[Isn't this Mrs. Luluvia?What is she trying to say? ]

[I heard that some people call her a saint, is she boasting? ]

[Don't talk nonsense, this food crisis is solved by the father and the daughter. ]

[But isn't she also afraid?What are you talking about. ]

The people were talking about all kinds of things, but Alyssa did not waver... At least on the surface.Because I can vaguely see that she is holding Cleis's hand tightly, the relationship between the two of them is really good.

[Don't be naive!You idiots! ]

Alyssa suddenly cursed loudly, this sentence made everyone stop talking, and all eyes focused on Alyssa, even I was taken aback by her move.

[Our country is the strongest!It is also because of this that countless people are staring at it.But the enemy did not know what method they used. Their swords were very strange, which caused our army to lose two games in a row.But His Majesty the King has personally gone to the battlefield to protect us.But not only did we fail to help His Majesty, but instead we messed up, it's really outrageous!Those who think of running away, run away!But from the moment you run away, you are no longer the citizens of your own country, and the Kingdom of Utopudilan will never accept any escaped cowards again!And the people who remain!I will fight with you till the last moment!Although I am a nobleman and a male and female, I am also a citizen of this country!I love my country, and likewise, I also love each of you. Although I am a woman, I am willing to use my meager strength and risk my life to protect everyone! ]

This person...is really Alisa?In the past, she was a bit timid and cowardly, and she dared not speak out even when someone slandered her in person.

But now Alisa's every word is very powerful and firm.Her unyielding eyes and solemn figure seemed to be a different person.

[well said! ]

I walked over to echo what Alyssa said.Then everyone's eyes shifted from Alisa to me.

[As Princess Alyssa said, although His Majesty the King is young, in order to protect you, he did not hesitate to go to the battlefield in person. Isn't this worthy of respect?Or, who of you is willing to put down your family, friends, and property, and go into battle to fight the enemy! ]

………………

No one answered my question.

[His Majesty the King should be the most noble existence, the monarch of this country!To protect His Majesty is what we should do, but now, Your Majesty is betting his young life to protect us!But you are here planning to abandon your country and flee, don't you feel shameful! ]

Maybe because of being a man, my voice is slightly louder than Alisa's.

[I know that some civilians here were planning to overthrow the rule of the nobility and the royal family before, but take a look, look around you, look at the sacrificed soldiers!It is the royal family you want to overthrow that is risking their lives to protect you now!It is this noble girl in front of you who solved the famine crisis and made you feel full! ]

The one-on-one harmony between Alisa and I made everyone gradually quiet down.

[well said!Lord Orankis. ]

It was Kleiss, who seemed to want to say something after taking my words.

[As Lord Orankis said, my eldest lady was guided by the goddess in a dream last winter, and the goddess predicted this year’s food crisis. With my own property, I have bought a large amount of wheat in various countries so that you will not be hungry now, and it is precisely because of this that you can plan all kinds of stupid things with that wooden head like now. ]

Clays' words made the people around not only frown, but rather than comforting people, her words were more like blaming or even insulting.

[I am also a commoner, and I have the same idea as many people. I hate those selfish and greedy nobles.I also thought about how wonderful it would be if there were no nobles and royal families, and everyone could be the master of his own life.However, this gives the wrong idea!How stupid! ]

Um... Kleiss, have you really thought about it?Obviously, when you first came to the academy, you have been sticking to Alyssa, at least I didn't see that you hate nobles at all.

[Since I met the eldest lady of my family, I have realized that not all nobles are the same.My eldest lady once said that nobles are the protection of the people.Nobles enjoy the fruits of common people's labor, oppress common people for their own greedy desires, but ignore them when the people need them, that kind of guy doesn't deserve to be a noble at all!Nothing but a moth of the country! ]

Did Alisa really say that?But these words are also true. Those greedy nobles who will do anything to satisfy themselves are the moths of this country, no, this world.

[I used to be alone, with no one to rely on, and no one to look down on me as a commoner.But my eldest lady, Princess Alyssa, is the one who saved me.Whether those who are also nobles or beggars living on the streets, Lady Alyssa will treat them equally!Because you are all the people of this country, the existence she cherishes, and the compatriots she would rather risk her life to protect with her petite body! ]

Clays deserves to be Clays. From the time I knew her, I knew that she was a person who could speak well.

[So, idiots!Show your courage!What is terrible is not the enemy, but the cowardly self!In order to protect his people, His Majesty the King personally led troops to resist the enemy at the risk of his own life.What about you?Do you want to be a coward who hides at home, or pick up the sword in your hand, and guard the country, your husband, wife, and children together with Master Alisa! ]

...............

[I want to protect my wife...]

[My daughter is still so young, how can...]

[I agreed to protect her, shrink back or something...]

Clays' words reminded those present of their cherished existence.

[Answer me!idiots!You want to be cowards who hide?Or raise the sword in your hand and become a warrior guarding this country!Be the hero who protects your family! ]

[I want to fight!I want to protect my wife! ]

[My son has not yet been born, as a husband, as a father, how can I escape! ]

[fighting!Defeat the enemy!Those who violate our country cannot be forgiven! ]

[Me too!My lover is guarded by me! ]

[And I! ]

[Little girls have to fight, how can I, as an adult, run away with the cheek. ]

Clearly, Clays' words were somewhat rude, but the effect was surprisingly good.

[very good!So everyone, please remember your oath at this moment!Remember who you want to protect!It's scary, but don't be afraid!My Lady Alyssa will be the first to rush to the front and fight with you!From now on, you will become heroes, and history and your family will all witness your heroic demeanor in battle!You will be remembered in history!Long live Utopudylan!Long live Master Alisa! ]

[Long live Utopudylan!Long live Master Alisa! ]

[Long live Utopudylan!Long live Master Alisa! ]

[Long live Utopudylan!Long live Master Alisa! ]

[Long live Utopudylan!Long live Master Alisa! ]

People in the square shouted one after another, and the matter that was still giving me a headache just now was solved in a blink of an eye.Clays also looked around with satisfaction, but... Alyssa seemed a little embarrassed.She took Kleis's hand again, her face was already flushed, probably because she felt a little embarrassed when people shouted her name.

In short, although the battle in the front is tense now, the people in the rear have been appeased, because sometimes it is more troublesome to mess up than the enemy's attack.

△△△△△

[Is that so, Alisa helped me again, it seems that I owe her more and more. ]

[Then you might as well marry her as soon as possible, so that you can "atone" for yourself as soon as possible]

[That...Olankis, although you say so, but in fact I...]

........................

[What!You got dumped by your fiancée? ! ! ]
