355 - - 355Th Episode. - No Decision?
I reported to the godmother in a telegram that I had defeated Hayes. She told me that I didn't need to get involved with Hayes, since we would take care of everything by ourselves. Immediately after that, Gon came into the transition. He was still in the state of a white fox with his humanization removed, and he said with a serious look in his eyes, "I'll leave the rest to you. He said that he would carry Hayes' corpse to his grandmother's house.
He was examining Hayes' body with trepidation, but then he turned to me and bowed his head.
"On behalf of my husband, I would like to thank you for what you have done.
The erotic fox being punished by Rico and the others was nowhere to be seen.
He was worried about the sleeping elf princess, but the princess told him that everything would be taken care of at the princess's place. At the end of the visit, she reminded me that I would be repaid for my visit. Somehow, she seemed to be acutely aware of her responsibility in her own way.
I move from Hayes' hideout to the battlefield. I wanted to go back to the Imperial Palace to check on Rico and the others, but I decided to go back to the battlefield because I knew that if I lost this battle, I would be in a very difficult situation.
"Sorry, I'm late. What's the status of the battle?"
The battlefield was much the same as it had been before the transfer. One of the soldiers who spotted me came to me in an agile motion, got down on one knee, and gave me a report on the battle situation. It seemed that the enemy had retreated to the swamp. Both Lamaron's and Vieille's forces had pursued the enemy one step ahead of Swamp, but the enemy had retreated so systematically that they were unable to break their firm position. I gave him a word of thanks and let him go.
"Um, ...... what should I do ......?"
A pitiful voice comes into my ear. I look over and see Kagemusha-kun, who is sitting on top of Ilimo, looking at me with a puzzled look. I approach him with a smile on my face.
"It's ok. You can get off. Thank you for helping me."
With that, I help him get off. He takes off his helmet with an apologetic look on his face and hands it to me. Then he runs away from the place like a hare.
I put my helmet back on and step onto Ilimo's back again.
The Kakona River spread out before my eyes, and was filled with a heap of corpses. I didn't notice it while we were fighting, but now that I see it again, I realize just how fierce the battle had been. An indescribable stench, a mixture of the smell of blood and the stench of death, hit my nose.
Just as I was about to let out a sigh, Sadakichi appeared in front of me. Surprised, I held out my left arm and made him stop on it.

When Sadakichi disappears, I look around again.
"Where's narwhal?
Gentlemen...
As usual, he appears with no sign of us at all, and we realize once again that he is a top-notch stealth expert. To be honest, there were times when we would have been in a bad situation if it had not been for the Owaras. I thanked the emperor in my heart that he had given us good reinforcements.
"Did anything go wrong while I was gone?"
"......"
"What's wrong?"
Casualties are high.
What?
"No magic in the world."
According to narwhal, there are many wounded soldiers in Agartha's army and in general, and since they are unable to use magic, they are unable to heal their wounds with healing magic. He says that they are providing a minimum of first aid, but at this rate, many deaths are expected to occur.
"...... got it. Just give me a minute."
I got down from Ilimo, called Posehaye, who was standing beside me, put my hand on his shoulder and wired the transition again.
The destination was the capital of Agartha. I went to May's room in the medical research institute.
There, he was in the middle of a meeting with May and several other staff members. As soon as I shifted, all eyes were on me, and I felt a little embarrassed. May stood up when she saw me and opened her mouth with an expression that was neither happy nor surprised.
"Master!"
"Mei, guys, sorry to interrupt your meeting. I have a favor to ask."
She looks puzzled for a moment, but then quickly says yes. I nod my head and look at everyone there.
"I'm sorry, but could you send as many doctors as possible to the battlefield? Without magic, we can't treat our wounded soldiers. There are so many wounded that many soldiers will die if we don't do something. Please, help them."
I bow my head. An indescribable silence enveloped the room.
I open my eyes and see all the Poseidonians in the meeting with their eyes closed. While I was wondering what they were doing, Chi-wan stood up and looked at me.
"I'm going to transfer all the Posehay to the battlefield, leaving only the minimum number of people. There are some staff members of the medical institute who cannot be transferred. I beg you, Mr. Rinos, to transfer them to the battlefield. Hey, Lutin. Remind everyone where the battlefield is."
Posehay, who had been transferred from the battlefield with me, closes his eyes without replying. Immediately after that, the Poseidonians in the conference room disappeared one by one, and soon there were only four of us in the room: Chi-wan, Roni, Mei and myself.
Roni, what are you doing? Can't we just go?"
Wait, Mr. Zhuang. Dawki said he was going and wouldn't listen.
"What?"
"He has very little medical knowledge. I'm asking if it's useful for someone who doesn't like the sight of blood to go there, but he won't listen to me. ....... Oh, shut up."
Roni is bobbing his head. Apparently, he says, Doki is offering to use his culinary skills to cook meals for wounded soldiers on the battlefield. I looked at May and opened my mouth.
"Okay, take Dawki with you."
"But ......"
"Just do it."
"Okay."
Roni closed her eyes for a moment, but then she too said she was going to the battlefield and left the room. Then, as if on cue, a knock came on the door and the young researcher said he was ready. How ready they were!
May and Chi-Wan urge me to leave the room, and I am led to another room. As we walked down the corridor, May told me that the capital had been attacked by dragons. She also told me that the undead had tried to attack the city. She briefly told me that Ferris and Ruara had defeated them with magic and Matkal had commanded the army. He also told me that Matkal had fallen ill after the battle and was hospitalized at the medical institute, and that his baby was in danger.
I stop for a moment. I told her that I wanted to go check on Matocal now, but she shook her head slowly. Her straight gaze, filled with intelligence, tells me that Matocal is in serious condition and that she wants me to take care of her. It was all I could do to squeeze out a request for Matocal's care. May said, "Leave it to me," and gently took my hand in hers.
The room we were led to was staffed with over a hundred people. Some were human, some were beastmen. A great variety of people. And behind them were piles and piles of boxes. Apparently, those boxes were filled with chemicals. While I was thinking about this, May's voice echoed through the room.
"Sorry to bother you all, but there was a battle at the Kakona River and many soldiers are wounded. They say they are in a state where they cannot use recovery magic. We will be there with medicines and other medical supplies. Please be careful for your own safety in the battlefield. All of you should carry an Orgine with you. If you can use it, we will use it to heal you. The first thing I ask you all to do is to visit ......."
May cut off her speech there, and for a moment a look of regret crossed her face, but then she opened her mouth with a firm expression on her face.
"We can divide the injured people's wounds into five stages. You will all heal from the shallow wounds first. When you arrive at the battlefield, immediately look at the wounds of the soldiers and judge their conditions. The person with the shallowest wound is 1, and the person with the heaviest wound is 5. Write each of them on the soldier's body so that you can see them clearly. Then, gather the people by their numbers. You are to focus on people numbered 1 and 2 and heal them. Thank you very much."
Everyone nodded at her words. Then May turned to me and bowed her head as if to encourage me to move on.
I was surprised at how systematized May's story was, but I set up a shifting ward and shifted everyone there to the battlefield.
This seemingly bloodless method that May devised would later lead people to call her a saint, but Linos and May herself had no way of knowing that. .......
