"Now is our time."
In the camp, Elsie enjoyed the porridge she had roughly cooked herself, along with some dried meat.
【Yo, good morning, Elsie!】
【Huh? Let me see what good stuff my esteemed minister from the Ministry of Justice is researching this time!】
What kind of culinary disaster is this? It's practically on par with Riggle!
At that moment, Rig, far away in a foreign land, sensed a deep-seated malice...
“If you say that, Rig will be sad.” Elsie tasted it and found no problem.
Having observed Ferry's cooking over the years, she had learned a little bit herself.
"Getting back to the main point, the watchtower has been completely taken down, and now we just need to wait for Parker's Featherhawk to conduct further reconnaissance."
"The rest of the troops rested in the watchtowers, awaiting the order to attack the city."
Elsie began to consider her current troop strength.
The vanguard has been expanded to thirty men, while the remaining soldiers number two hundred.
Attacking a city would inevitably result in heavy losses, especially since they lacked experience in siege warfare and did not possess siege equipment.
Compared to these tedious battles, I'm more concerned about why you don't just go all out? With the destructive power of your human nuclear bomb, wouldn't conquering the city be a piece of cake?
Elsie sat by the bed, tucking Windsor, who was still asleep, under the covers, and silently ate her porridge.
"Me? My Storm Scourge is still on cooldown!" Elsie shook her head helplessly.
If it's just individual combat strength? She's going to grab a greatsword and chop down the door? Are you kidding me! The sword couldn't possibly withstand that!
Moreover, the guards on those city walls are no mere decorations; a relentless rain of arrows would riddle her with holes!
Perhaps... you could rediscover your overlooked magical talents? Unleashing a few mini-storms now and then... wouldn't be too much to ask, would it?
Elsie pondered for a moment, then tilted her head and smiled: "Save me some trump cards, okay?"
If he's too invincible, how can we even watch the bloody battlefield?! I, Mizuki, am here for the fun!!!
Wait, wait! You finally admit you were just faking it!
...
time……
[Fleeting...]
"?" Elsie silently typed a question mark, but this wasn't the first time she'd jumped through time like this.
She stretched and yawned, welcoming the first rays of morning sunlight.
[Yeah, right, it's already noon!]
Lazy Xi only eats two meals a day, one lunch and one dinner. Why doesn't she eat breakfast? Because...
"Because it was already noon when I got up~"
Elsie: (*\/w＼*)
[Don't interrupt me, you jerk! Does it make you feel accomplished to steal my words? Just to show off your presence to the readers?]
Oh! By the way! There haven't been any chapters featuring you, you must be feeling pretty lonely, tsk, I can understand, you're a slow burner after all...
A week has passed since the watchtower was captured. According to intelligence, Parker has completed his reconnaissance and is returning. Perhaps news of the siege is coming soon.
【stop! 】
Don't interrupt me when I'm getting into it!
And you! Look at my guy! Stop right there! Put your hands up! It's okay if you don't, I was just trying to scare you...
"???"
Elsie silently lowered her hands...
[With our main storyline officially underway, the story is gradually entering a slow-burn phase. (Narrator turns page)]
[Elsie, don't you know you need to give your readers more perks? Otherwise, why would they keep reading? Look at you now... look at you! Everyone's busy keeping books unread!]
"What can I do?!" Elsie was weak, pitiful, and helpless.
【Simple! 】
[Abandon the siege, unleash a storm to kill Ellen, overthrow all the royal families, and become the overlord of the south! Then jump back in time to adulthood and give everyone a high-energy dance!]
"That makes sense! But my natural disaster is still cooling down..."
[...]
Um... how many days has it been since the last activation?
“It seems like…” Elsie counted on her fingers, “It’s been about a month, hasn’t it?”
[...]
【What the hell?! What kind of natural disaster is this?! The Keomi earthquake was dealt with in a flash, but this thing's been sitting here for a month and the CD isn't even clear yet?!】
"That's true, but aren't you the one who least supports me using the Cataclysm?" Elsie suddenly realized the key point.
The dragon slayer has finally succeeded...
【Brave. 】
"Hero... Huh? Don't interrupt my train of thought!"
[Ahem, although I didn't support your use of natural disasters in the first place, things have come to this... having fun is the most important thing! We'll starve if we don't have some big surprises!]
[Look! (sound of pushing a chair) (sound of patting stomach - with echo) I've lost weight from starvation!]
[If no one reads it, no one gives it a reward, and the platform doesn't promote it, what am I supposed to eat? Fight for love? Don't be ridiculous! I'll just launch the new book and see what happens!]
[I've even come up with a name for it! It'll be called... "The Narrator's Rampage in Another World"]
“…” Elsie shook her head; she felt the name was too corny.
[What?! So tacky!!? Bury your mother in the dirt! I've been thinking about this book title for a year! I even finished the cover... Wait! I've got an idea!]
(Sound of writing)
Hey! Hey! How about this? My masterpiece that I just came up with!
【Reincarnated Blood Princess: Starting with a One-on-One Goblin Army】
"Too erotic!" Elsie vetoed it.
[So... "The Narrator and the Blood Princess's Three Hundred Years of Love-Hate Relationship," "The Overbearing Blood Princess's Journey to Another World," and "Chapter Titles That Are Too... Too...?"]
"Wait! Something strange seems to have gotten mixed in?"
Hey! Don't worry about the details! If you're so capable, come up with your own book title... huh?
【Um! ? 】
[I was clearly threatening you with my new book to force you to release some fan service! Who told you to pad out half a chapter with me!?]
"Hehehe~"
[Don't laugh!!! (sound of keyboard slamming)]
...
"Lord!"
A soldier's voice came from outside the tent: "Mr. Parker has returned from reconnaissance and brought the latest news from the battlefield."
Elsie tidied her messy hair in front of the mirror, ignoring the annoying pop-up ads trying to obstruct her view.
[Calling someone trash! That's too much! I'm angry! I'm really angry!!!]
When I get angry, I get really angry!!!
Elsie finally put down the comb, silently stood up, looked at her still messy hair in the mirror, and forced a smile.
I just can't comb it properly! I give up! I'm just going to give up! Anyway, nobody cares!
Elsie: (?????)
[So, Elsie went to greet her knight with her "messy" long hair, unaware of the seriousness of her actions.]
"You recovered your composure so quickly, didn't you?" Elsie chuckled. "There was no need to emphasize those two words so much!"
[...]
【Charm-1】
"Hey! What do you mean?!" Elsie exclaimed in alarm.
Could it be that my charm points really were deducted?! No way! It's just my hair!
Or is it... just the narrator being silly?
Of course not.
"I see."
"..."
"?"
Elsie pointed to herself: "Do you think I'm stupid?"
【charm-】
"No!!! I'm crying~~~"
