The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

"…But it doesn't matter. I have a backup plan."

Aarons certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to put all his chips on one bet.

In fact, he had already developed three alternative plans - even if the special forces failed to intercept the royal family of Cardia, he could ensure that the set goals were achieved.

"Main launch tube, load an anti-ship torpedo."

[Marquis, we don't have that much ammunition... You'd better use it sparingly.]

“…It’s all being calculated.”

Although it seemed that Aarons still had the time to respond to Jiangyue's reminder, Zhuying and Yalu who were standing beside him knew very well that he was actually under tremendous pressure.

——Because the fear and madness that the commandos and even the entire crew should have felt during the battle had already been quietly absorbed and resolved by him.

"Keliya, follow my instructions and blow up their two passages first."

【Understood, Captain.】

During battle, Her Royal Highness the Princess would specifically change the way she addressed Aarons to demonstrate her willingness to accept his command - of course, Aarons had already given her considerable autonomy in making decisions and would not overly restrict her actions.

"Leave one last passage so they think they can escape. If the special forces don't catch them, I will launch torpedoes towards their escape location."

Aarons actually deliberately left a way out for the Cadians, and also created an opportunity for the special forces team with little experience to train.

[Report to the command room, the torpedoes are fully loaded and can be launched at any time. ]

[Team Two has landed and is heading to the designated location.]

"Don't continue to send ground personnel. Once the transport plane returns, immediately reload its weapons and prepare for low-altitude fire support."

Aarons doesn't actually have many resources at hand now, so he doesn't intend to fight with all his strength...so he decisively chose the most economical method.

If the commandos failed, Klia would immediately use the weapons she carried to destroy Cardia's secret passage and bury all those who wanted to escape.

The [Evil Star] created by Jiangyue was originally designed to allow Klia to vent the power of the stars at will.

……

Although this was not the first time she had fought with humans, Klia was still thinking while flying gorgeously in the sky.

As the "Child of the Star", why did I awaken at this time? And what kind of responsibility does Aarons, who came here from another world, bear?

[Team One is approaching the interception position. Please tell us the current situation.]

[The target just returned from the blocked passage and should be too late to escape.]

[Understood, we will deploy it immediately. ]

The cities of Cadia are burning in a cloud of spiritual power - how did they end up in such a situation?

They just have to choose to hurt others in order to make up for the country's inherent geographical disadvantages... so should they pay the price?

After all, why do humans fight each other so recklessly?

[The second team encountered the enemy and is trying to break through... There is an ambush behind! Be careful! ]

[After repelling the enemy, immediately evacuate the area. The enemy has already re-deployed its defenses. ]

[…Understood, we will begin retreating immediately.]

It must be very frustrating not to be able to achieve your goals.

But why? Why do humans love to fight, even at the cost of their lives?

"How strange."

There was hardly anyone to be seen in the burning city.

Both the soldiers and the residents who had not left had already hidden underground. They would not be able to come out until the fire was completely extinguished.

[Team One has found the target! Let’s start the battle! ]

【Don't let any of your targets go, or they will quickly regroup. 】

Perhaps the reason for all this is what Aarons once said.

——Most human beings’ cognition is limited and they are easily misled by various information.

If misled by people with ulterior motives, many people may go in the wrong direction... Although they do not want to fight in their hearts, they assume an enemy due to wrong information, and then have to give their all to defeat or destroy the opponent.

In the end, only a very small number of people benefited.

"Because the cause lies with the dominant person...so if we eliminate that person, the direction people are heading will change."

Do the Cadians really need to fight the Empire in order to gain stable trade routes?

Not really. In the decades since Marquis Moti regained control of the border territories, the Cadians have been able to smoothly transport their own goods to the Principality of Corinth.

Although they did need to pay some customs duties, they were actually able to make stable profits, and the Empire did not blackmail them excessively because of previous wars.

Therefore, the war that the Cadians provoked against the Empire was just to gain more benefits... and for the sake of these benefits, who knew who would get them in the end, many Cadians were forced to go to the battlefield.

This is a fight caused by greed.

"How pathetic, human."

After figuring this out, Claire was no longer confused.

[Team 1 reports, we have eliminated most of the enemies, but a few have escaped and are being pursued now.]

[The enemy's position has been detected. Please destroy the enemy as soon as possible. The transport plane is on standby in the air, ready to pick up a team returning. ]

……

When the war situation report was downplayed, a fierce battle was actually taking place in the royal city of Cadia.

The commandos, who had been deployed and ambushed in advance, successfully attacked the Cadian royal group that was preparing to flee, but the Guards used their bodies as shields and forcibly held back the commandos, who did not carry much ammunition and explosives, allowing a young man to escape.

That must be a very important person - when the captain of the commando team realized this, he immediately abandoned the safe tactics.

The team quickly unleashed all their firepower, knocking down all the enemies who tried to delay time... but the young man who had escaped had already run far away.

"We are out of ammunition. If we encounter the enemy again, we may suffer losses..."

"We can't just give up like this...Locke! Come with me!"

However, their battle this time ended here.

Because when they followed the instructions and caught up with the target who was trying to escape, a red aurora suddenly penetrated countless layers of the castle ceiling, instantly burning the young royal family members and soldiers into ashes before they even had time to catch their breath.

[This is Keliya, mission accomplished, let the commandos retreat. ]

Although the process of the first battle was not satisfactory, the goal was achieved.
