The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem
Chapter 59 Building a Line of Defense
In order to explain some final things clearly, Aarons returned to the Marquis's Mansion immediately after finishing the broadcast.
"I'm taking Karin to Cornell now. Xia Ye, you stay here and protect the children and others."
"I think you'll just die in vain, so I don't agree."
Aarons thought his decision would be supported, but he never expected that Xia Ye rejected his idea without hesitation.
"The most important point in my agreement with you is that you must ensure that your life is not threatened. If you die in this unwinnable battle, I will lose an important source of mental tranquilizers."
Xia Ye needs to absorb a memory with negative emotions every month to maintain his mental stability. If Aarons dies, Xia Ye will have to look for someone to absorb memories from.
This is indeed an option with only risks and no rewards for her, so it is understandable that she would refuse.
"So I oppose your decision, please reconsider."
"First, Karin will protect me. If the defense line collapses, I will let her take me away immediately. Second, I will definitely pay you extra compensation when I come back... If this doesn't work, I will have to use this."
Aarons directly showed the sheep head emblem on the back of his right hand. He had no intention of giving up. Even if he had to give up this important contract insurance, he had to go to that dangerous battlefield.
Even he himself didn't understand why this idea in his mind was so firm.
"…Are you kidding me?"
The Aries Witch's body trembled slightly because of anger. She took off her glasses, revealing her long pupils that had been covered up.
The demon's gaze made the temperature in the room seem to drop by several degrees, but Aarons just stared at her silently, without showing any fear on his face.
"Xia Ye, I will do my best to protect the young master's safety... Please trust me and the young master."
"...I hate that look. It's the look of that bastard who once killed countless crazy demons."
Xia Ye should be referring to the "brave man" who saved mankind thousands of years ago, but Aarons didn't think he was similar to that great man in any way.
"I can't compare to the heroes of ancient times. I'm just a weakling who can be killed by anyone... But even so, there are things I have to do."
"Then be prepared... When you come back, I will make you regret this decision."
"...Thank you, Xia Ye. See you when you come back."
Aarons did not use the precious contractual insurance to make Xia Ye agree with his will.
Even though it would cost an incalculable price later, Aarons did not regret making this decision.
"Then please protect the others. I'll leave the house to you."
After saying this, Aarons immediately turned around and left the room without any hesitation.
After seeing Karin leave with him, Xia Ye put on his glasses again and sighed deeply with some helplessness.
"...You were born at the wrong time, Master."
……
However, before Aarons walked out of the yard, he was stopped by another unexpected person.
"What's wrong, kid? If you have something to say, say it quickly."
"…Are you going to abandon everyone and run away by yourself?"
——The person who stopped Aarons was the young Els.
This reckless boy, who was only fifteen years old, had an angry expression on his face for some reason. He looked at Aarons with a look of inexplicable contempt.
"Huh? Can you mind your own business first, little brat? Where I'm going, what I'm going to do...what does it have to do with you?"
"I've heard from people outside...you plan to trick others into dying and escape by yourself!"
"Oh, it's just another kid's fantasy... Go away and don't get in the way of my business."
Aarons pushed Els aside mercilessly and walked out of the yard at a brisk pace. Karin, who was following behind him, glared at the boy but didn't say anything more.
"Nobles are all liars... I will definitely expose your true colors this time!"
After watching the two people leave the mansion without hesitation, the young and energetic boy was finally completely dominated by the surging emotions in his heart.
He did not believe that this powerless and incompetent noble would do anything risking his life, and in order to prove that his idea was correct, he quickly and quietly followed Aarons' footsteps.
……
——The village of Cornell.
This is not a very wealthy place, and the annual harvest of crops is only average.
Most of the young villagers have gone to Moti City to work and make a living, so only a few elderly people and underage children are left in the village.
"Master, the Fourth Legion just sent a message... A wave of beasts is expected to rush here tonight, and the Fourth Legion can only be sent to support us tomorrow morning at the earliest."
"Let's hold out for one night. How's the outer defensive wall going?"
"Fortunately, a fourth-level earth magician volunteered to come to support us. We have basically built a defense line now. Two fixed artillery arrays will be delivered in an hour, and the magicians of the city office will be responsible for installation and debugging."
After rushing to the village of Conil, Aarons immediately became the person in charge of this line of defense.
Although some of the people who volunteered to help did not quite agree with his instructions, the warriors and magicians of the city hall faithfully carried out his orders, leaving no one else able to raise any objections.
“How many people are here who can fight now?”
"There are a total of 130 people who can fight, including 16 magicians. The Kulan Mercenary Group also called just now and said that five of them will arrive within two hours."
"Led by the people from the city hall, divide all the warriors into teams of eight. In addition, except for the healers in the rear, all the magicians must stay on the defense wall."
Although Aarons had no experience in participating in a battle of this scale, he was quite calm at this time.
Perhaps because they were facing a powerful enemy, everyone was very nervous, so no one thought about how an incompetent young master could issue various accurate instructions so rationally and quickly.
"Master, what about me?"
"When the time comes, just stand in the middle of the crowd and go there immediately if you see anyone in need of support."
Looking at Aarons who was still drawing something on the map with his head down, Karin couldn't help but clench her right fist.
——Something that had never been seen before seemed to be slowly emerging from the young master’s body.
