Translator: imperfectluck Editor: imperfectluck

A battle would never have true victors Unlike in those legends and epics, ould only leave behind ruins, hatred, and endless generations of revenge cycles

The majority of ordinary people do not enjoy war, but why, then, does war still exist? Perhaps it is because of personal interests—as long as there is no effective or betteras ambitious individuals secretly manipulate and incite matters behind the scenes, ill never cease to exist

In this battle that involved the entire Northlands, the beastht for their ancestral homeland, while the elves had participated in the hope of returning to their for wrong

From the viewpoint of history, factions that start the battles would typically be the biggest losers in the end Moreover, this battle was no different fro for their own race to have s couldn’t si Nothis battle, it wouldn’t change the fact that the icy Northlands was now soaked in socursed the Gods and the invaders before their deaths The relationships between the various species, which had just begun to thaere now at rock bottoain

"So was basically now the nored into a court to receive an absolutely unfair judgees would selectively go blind and hand out nu victiht, I knew that it was all rather less, but it was indeed a way to vent

Not only was it a sacrifice to help appease the spirits of the dead who died despite doing nothing wrong, but it could help the survivors vent their anger and pain Punishing the guilty was also the fastest way to aid the survivors in clearing their grudges and returning to a normal way of life

After this particular battle, however, we ran into so

If we compared those who had the dom couldn’t compare to the beastmen who started this war In this bloody battle, the plateau beastmen had lost most of their accumulated tribes that had developed over the past few centuries It was obvious that they wouldn’t recover for a significantly long period of time after this battle, and because of the beastmen’s tradition, where their tribe leaders personally led froe majority of well-known beastmen tribe leaders had all died in this battle

"Kill those beaste! Why are their children and fe our children and females for their sake? They can kill our children and wolow of victory faded from the fortune of survival, the survivors looked at the hole-riddled world before therily shouted to counterattack the plateaus and kill all the beastrudges were quite difficult to deal with, especially since they suffered so ic and reason on soression&8221; and "not starting a near,&8221; and wax philosophical about the endless vicious cycle of warfare, and all the citizens would sie? Why is it that only they can coht

"…Even without the ‘non-aggression’ preht now, not toplateau beaste as we pleased&8221;

Leaving the plateau beastmen alone would evidently be a future source of trouble for later generations, and I already had a plan for dealing with theht

"Let’s find sooats, then Perfect—there are still a feho escaped and they’re causing trouble; let’s kill them off to scare the rest of the beastmen&8221;

Perhaps I should "celebrate&8221; the fact that in the chilly winter night of the final battle, not all the beast the beastmen, there were so their tribes into the rinder of death and instead secretly escaped under the cover of night

After their path of return became ierous guerilla bands for the sake of their own survival That hy after the situation had slightly steadied, I sent out the entire squad of Aurora Knights to hunt these beastmen down

So, even if their numbers weren’t all thatthe various impressions I created for them; some of my wanted posters called theresses and the 105 male Beastmen They were hence quickly captured and held in prison carts, which would parade about every city so that the survivors could spit on theement for their cried

History possessed plenty of evidence that invaders who failed in their invasion would end up the roup of all from the war Their territory would be seized, they would definitely have revenge taken upon the awaited them—nobody would take pity on theot They were both the victims of war as well as the ible and intangible conditions, the victors would also never give the losers another chance to rise up again out of consideration for the future There would definitely be numerous strict restrictions forced upon the losers, and the invaders, who had been so proud of themselves when they started the ould have to accept even the ent of conditions in order to live on and survive, no ent conditions and hu restrictions would always intensify the conflict between them and sow the seeds for a new, future war

This hy I was especially careful with the treath I had already prepared a plan beforehand, I still invitedthis topic

With ave their own opinions, but they were all nothingoff their food supplies, forcing the beastes, and reparation fees I al, standard ideas
