The Protagonist's Party is Too Diligent

Chapter 270

The destruction of the warship turned out to be more helpful than expected.

The Empire’s forces, which had been advancing under the cover of the ship’s heavy artillery support, were slowed significantly with the loss of their most powerful firepower. As a result, only the Emperor, his children, and the Imperial Knights accompanying them managed to reach Lutetia.

This meant that most of Belvur’s army had shifted from urban combat to defending Lutetia itself. While bombs had fallen within the city, it hadn’t been reduced to complete rubble as it had in the game.@@@@

There was one advantage to this: the small, elite force centered around the Emperor could more easily make their way toward the Holy Nation.

More importantly, it was Charlotte who chose to follow us.

Our “party” wasn’t very large. Lena never left her country for the Empire. Jake and Lottie, though friendly with me, prioritized protecting their own territory. Mia was defending Crowfield’s lands.

I hadn’t even met Sophia. Carolyn, not being a soldier, stayed behind at the academy. Jennifer had apparently gone to the battlefield, but her exact location was unknown.

I was worried. If any of them were to die, I wouldn’t even know about it.
