Great Nobleman
Chapter 255 Damn Brand!
After explaining all kinds of things, I chatted briefly with my seniors for a while.
Brand bid farewell to him, left the library, and went to the market in the imperial capital to order a batch of accessories for drawing rune circles.
After that, he returned to the academy and went to the mage's residence to find Andy.
When Brand met Andy under the guidance of the members of the Master Association.
He was sitting in the exclusive seat of the leader of the Mage Council, flipping through a booklet that looked like a document.
From time to time, he would write and draw on it with a pen, and there was a cup of steaming hot coffee at hand.
Seeing such a scene, Brand guessed that Andy was probably dealing with the business documents of the Mages Association.
It is understandable that a large organization like the Mage Association has a lot of affairs.
Andy saw Brand walking into the office.
He naturally closed the "document" in his hand, revealing the cover with the words "Statistics of Contribution Value of Mage Association Members".
Seeing the words on the cover clearly, Brand felt a sense of admiration in his heart!
The library actually has similar affairs, but he handed them over to Melche-senpai.
As the founder of the "Secret Organization", senior sister Melche can do a very good job of counting and distributing the contributions of organization members.
At the same time, this is actually something he is not good at.
——From this point of view, as the leader of the organization, he is not as good as Andy!
When Brand secretly admired Andy in his heart.
Andy also smiled and asked Brand's purpose:
"Why is our library owner visiting me when he is free?"
While asking curiously like this, he skillfully made a cup of hot coffee for Brand.
In this regard, Brand did not refuse.
——I haven’t gone to Celine’s class today, and I just slept for a while last night.
——Without the "potion" charging, his current state is not very good.
After taking two sips of coffee, Brand asked about the situation on the northern border of the empire.
The Claude family is in the north, and Andy is naturally very clear about the situation there.
Seeing that Brand was curious about this matter, he immediately told Brand about it.
"Now we are confronting the orc army on the border, and occasionally there will be partial and sporadic engagements in the wild.
However, relying on their respective military fortresses, it is easy to retreat or support, so the scale of these battles is not large.
Both sides are more restrained.
We haven't finished preparing for the battle yet, and the orcs are also doing their best to strengthen the defense facilities of various military fortresses and transport supplies. "
At this time, Brand was a little puzzled and said:
"The current strength of the orcs should be superior to ours, why didn't they attack us?"
Andy explained:
"The military forts we built on the border are not vegetarians. Even if the orcs take advantage of their strength and attack us, they will not be able to take advantage of it in a short period of time.
In addition, judging from the movements of the orcs, they should be waiting for us to take the initiative to attack.
They rely on various military fortresses to fight a defensive war with us. "
Hearing what Andy said, Brand frowned slightly, and said curiously:
"Are they trying to stall for time?"
Andy nodded and said:
"This should be!
The tide of the endless sea will certainly bring convenience to our Northern Expedition, but if the tide recedes, we haven't touched the endless sea yet.
Then the battle after that will become more difficult.
Because every moment, the coastline is moving north.
Orcs can build new fortifications on the newly exposed land.
As we march north, the battle line will get longer and longer!
When the empire's resources are exhausted, the pioneering war will be considered a failure.
The empire's plans would be set back decades from here.
Wait for the orcs in the north to swallow the benefits of the magic tide.
The next pioneering war might be even more difficult. "
Hearing what Andy said, Brand nodded in understanding.
——The sooner the empire pushes the northern front to the endless sea, the northern troops can be transferred to other places.
——With fewer battle lines, they will be able to deal with it more calmly!
Brand concludes:
"So for us, the sooner we play the better, it is best to have a decisive battle, the first battle will determine the outcome.
But for the orcs, the longer the time is dragged on, the better. When the tide recedes and the space opens up, it will be more difficult for us to reach the endless sea. "
Andy nodded and said, "This is the situation now."
Having said that, he leaned closer and whispered:
"I heard a few old masters say that it is simply calculated based on the strength of our empire.
If we haven't touched the endless sea for a year and a half after the war, the war can be declared a failure.
Otherwise, we are considered victorious. "
"A year and a half?"
Brand's expression became a little dignified.
According to the past, the duration of pioneering wars is usually about three years.
This time the war was shortened and the orcs increased their troops, not to mention, the other party wanted to delay the time.
As difficult as it sounds!
After talking about the situation in the northern border, Andy asked Brand curiously:
"By the way, there is still a year left in the pioneering war. Why do you want to care about the northern border?"
Hearing this, Brand also put aside the matter of opening up the war, and explained with a smile:
"In the following holidays, Master Holland will take Yersin and me to the northern border for a stroll and see the battlefield, so I'll ask about the situation there."
Listening to Brand talking about the holiday arrangements, Andy responded:
"Finn and I will also go there during the holidays, but we just go for a stroll and get to know the peers of other ally families.
There shouldn't be many chances to fight against the orcs, after all, our current strength is low. "
Speaking of the issue of strength, Brand pointed to the booklet "Statistics of Contribution Value of Members of the Mage Society" in front of Andy and said:
"I think, Andy, you should consider dividing up the affairs at hand and set aside more time for study and practice.
You can see that Shalan has already caught up with me and became a high-level mage apprentice, but you are still an intermediate mage apprentice. "
This was suddenly pointed out by Brand, "You should spend more time studying and practicing", and Andy felt a little sad all of a sudden.
——One day is only so long, what else can he do! ?
At this moment, he really wanted to tell Brand the truth that the booklet in front of him was actually a study material.
Of course, that's all Andy thought.
On the surface, he still said helplessly:
"No way, I don't have any capable subordinates now, I used to have Garyus as my secretary, but was abducted by Finn later.
Now if I don't come to deal with these things, there will be no one in the Mage Council. "
Brand said with some regret:
"But in this way, you will be thrown farther and farther away by me, and there will be a pioneering war in the future. The stronger the strength, the better?"
Hearing this, Andy shook his head sadly and said:
"The mage will bring me a lot of benefits, and also recruited some mages to the family.
As the heir of the Claude family, I always have to make a choice! "
Hearing Andy's "bitter choice", Brand once again felt sincere admiration in his heart!
With great regret, Brand did not continue to disturb Andy, and offered to leave.
Wait for Brand to leave.
Andy quickly comforted himself:
"That's right! I couldn't catch up with Brand because I had to deal with all kinds of 'cumbersome' affairs of the Mage Association!
It's all mages who drag me down..."
In the end, he recalled the short time he spent enjoying a cup of coffee every day dealing with the affairs of the Masters Association.
Powerlessness and grief suddenly rushed into Andy's heart!
He hammered the table and said angrily:
"Damn Brand!!"
