The Regressed Mercenary's Machinations

Chapter 464

On the vast plains, two armies faced each other.

One bore the banners of the Northern Army, while the other flew the flags of the Delfine Dukedom.

Count Mathes, commanding the Delfine army’s second division, turned to the figure beside him.

“Are you certain that the Count of Fenris isn’t present?”

“Yes. If he cared for his father and sister, he would have acted by now.”

The one answering was Dentaria, a high-ranking inquisitor of the Salvation Order. A former priest who had incited barbarians to create chaos in the north, Dentaria had since joined the Delfine forces.

The Northern Army, meanwhile, only needed to delay the Delfine forces. There was no reason for them to engage unless absolutely necessary.

If the Northern Army had been smaller, it might have been feasible to simply overwhelm them with superior numbers.

But with 80,000 soldiers, the Northern Army was formidable enough to deter any reckless advances.

Dentaria offered a reassuring smile.

“The Northern Army will be weaker without the Count of Fenris. As long as we neutralize their seventh-circle mage, our priests can lead the charge to destroy their trebuchets. While there will be casualties, it’s nothing to worry about.”

“Very well.”
