She initially thought that she had lost three forward bases in a row, with a depth of more than a hundred kilometers, but now it seems that this is not the case.
The legions of various countries blocked the World Eater area. After the World Eater legion was dispatched, they attacked in three directions at the same time and achieved certain results. However, due to the strong walls and clearing of the country during this period, except for the forward base and transportation lines, there was no one here. It has become a no-man's land. Even if the base is lost, the World Eaters cannot obtain supplies through attack.
Ioletta sighed: "This is what worries me the most. It only took two days for the World Eaters to complete their combat goals at the same time. In other words, their strategic goals are not clear and their combat effectiveness is stronger. Come on, follow me to the headquarters and you will get more information."
Linguang couldn't be optimistic, so he followed along.
"How are your injuries?"
"There was no problem. After receiving treatment, the injury recovered quickly."
However, the blood loss could not be replenished in time. Ioletta knew that the Linguang family was full of hard-nosed people, even Maria Linguang, who was still under house arrest in the ancestral home, was like this.
She hesitated for a few seconds and then said: "You have two days left on vacation. After the meeting, I will send someone to take you back to the Grand Knight Territory to see Maria. That child probably misses you too."
Lin Guang pursed his lips, but said nothing in the end. He nodded slightly and obeyed the Grand Knight Commander's arrangement.
…
Zofia was very idle during this period, and her job was suspended, but it didn't matter. The money she earned from being a competitive knight in the early years was enough for her and the Linguang sisters to live on for a lifetime.
After leaving the stressful work day and night, time became abundant and she had more time to spend with her family.
After entering a state of war, the Business Federation devoted all its efforts to supporting the front line. From materials to transportation to manpower, the state machinery began to operate at high speed, and people's lives also experienced certain changes.
Zofia had a keen sense of smell and was prepared very early, but one person disagreed.
"Maena, do you have a day off today?"
"Well, starting today, I have three months off."
"Wow!"
Zofia looked at Maena as if she had just met him today. The iron tree was blooming. How could this man ask for a vacation?
Maena glanced at Zofia and said calmly: "Margaret is coming back today. We will have a family gathering. Don't forget to ask Maria to come with us."
"What happened to you?"
The middle-aged man was still wearing his same coat as before, but he seemed to talk a little more.
"nothing."
Watching Maena return to the study, Zofia was puzzled.
In the back garden of the ancestral house, Maria's workshop belonged exclusively to her. The girl was sitting on the steps at the door, holding her head with her hands, looking boredly into the distance.
When Zofia arrived, she immediately increased her volume: "Maria, why are you sitting on the ground?"
"It's okay, I'm wearing work clothes."
Even old clothes that had been washed until they turned white could not hide the girl's youthful beauty. Maria waved her hand to show that she heard her.
Zofia didn't think so, and walked over quickly: "Maria, your sister came back today, and Maena actually asked for a family gathering. You should also prepare for it. Margaret has been in the limelight recently, and everyone is talking about She promoted the victory!"
"Of course, my sister is so powerful, the World Devourer is no match for her."
Maria can't see the evil and crazy look she had before. She is the real herself now.
According to the tradition of the Linguang family, Maria put on the light armor she wore only in battle. She had not touched this slightly worn armor for a long time.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Maria suddenly felt strange.
…
Not many people knew about Linguang's return home. She originally planned to stay after reading a lot of information about the frontline operations, but the Grand Knight Commander insisted on her coming back and even sent someone to escort her into the car.
Sitting in the car, looking at the familiar streets becoming empty with only a few pedestrians and more heavily armed soldiers, I slowly clenched my fists.
In the past, she didn't like the business federation's behavior and regarded competitive knights as commodities. Now she doesn't like war even more. War has destroyed countless people's lives.
The war must end and victory must be achieved!
"General Linguang, we have arrived."
Yes.
The driver called her "General". Although the promotion ceremony had not yet been held, everyone agreed that she was already the youngest general in Casimir.
Linguang didn't emphasize anything, nodded to the driver, opened the door and got out of the car.
Standing at the door of her ancestral home, she felt like she was in another world.
He walked closer step by step, reached out and slowly opened the door, and the first thing he saw was Zofia.
Linguang was wearing normal clothes when he went home today, thinking he shouldn't be so serious, but he didn't expect Zofia to be wearing light armor and a sword.
The two stared at each other until Zofia couldn't bear the embarrassment anymore: "Margaret, welcome back!"
"Thanks."
Linguang hugged Zofia hard and joked: "Auntie is very hard today."
Zofia said dissatisfied: "Humph, everyone is waiting for you."
The people she mentioned also included her uncle Ma Enna.
Linguang said nothing and followed Zofia through the atrium to the hall where the party was held. Maena and Maria were already seated.
The family only had the regular clothes Linguang wore. She patted her forehead in annoyance, knowing she would be wearing armor today.
Zofia was satisfied with her niece's reaction and raised her chin slightly.
The first person to break the silence was Maria. The girl asked curiously: "Sister, how does it feel to fight?"
"It's actually very bad," Linguang said matter-of-factly, "If possible, I don't want to fight. Life is no better than a piece of grass on the battlefield."
Ma Enna suddenly said: "Peace cannot be obtained by praying, Margaret, we must kill more enemies."
"I will not be lenient. The world-swallowers will only die in this land."
Zofia raised her glass at the right time: "Let us drink to Margaret's victory!"
Victory?
Lin Guang raised their glasses together, and even Maena clinked glasses with her slowly to express his approval of her achievements.
Maria came closer, her lovely face flushed, and whispered: "Sister, I heard that you damaged your sword and gun in the battle. Come to my studio later, I have a gift for you!"
"Really?"
Although he was not satisfied with his sister's focus on engineering and manufacturing, Linguang knew that Maria's craftsmanship was absolutely top-notch, so he wanted to give her gifts, most likely excellent weapons and armor.
Seeing that the two sisters were tired of getting together, Zofia angrily expressed her dissatisfaction through her nose.
Hey, let them be, the children grow up.
