As Van walked through the village, all the knights and villagers who saw him shouted out in a brave voice. Meanwhile, the adventurers and others with battle experience nodded in agreement, smiling wryly.

"After an overwhelmingly victorious battle, it's like that, isn't it?"

"No, but we retreated from the last one, so it wasn't a lost battle, was it?"

"Well, the last one was a losing battle, wasn't it?" "It was a completely winning battle in terms of the content.

There was some such conversation going on here and there, and Van proceeded on his way, looking slightly annoyed.

Eventually, they reached the perimeter of Seat Village, and Dee, Arv, and Roe looked up when they noticed Van's figure.

"Oh, Van-sama, have you recovered your energy?"

"Oh, you mean you're ready to go?"

I'd like to take a little more time.

Van shook his head lightly from side to side as he heard the three different voices.

"I don't think we can say for sure that we can win the war even if we join the war as it is now. So I'll develop a weapon that will be decisive."

When he replied, the three of them blinked their eyes, looked at each other, and turned to Van again.

"...Still new weapons?"

"...There's more?"

"...Are you bullying me?"

Van smiled innocently at these replies.

"The higher the odds, the better, right?"

Van said, and Dee burst out laughing, while Arv and Roe returned a wry smile.

Waving goodbye to the three of them, Van and the others approach Bell and Rango as they unload the wagon.

"Welcome home!"

Belle, Rango, and the slaves who were now employees of the Chamber of Commerce turned to look at them.

"Oh, Van-sama!"

"It's been a while."

"Your first victory in your first battle, that's a quintessence."

The Belrango Chamber of Commerce came up to me with smiles on their faces, laughing and saying no.

"No, no, it's a total loss. I just showed up for a minute and ran away."

When I replied, Belle smiled implicitly and pulled her chin back.

"I guess so. The timing of the entry into the battle and the achievement of successfully withdrawing the Knights, the keystone of the defense... I think it was the best flow for Van-sama to beat the maximum results of the battle unscathed, don't you think?"

To these words, Van cowered his shoulders and replied.

"It just happened. I don't really think that far ahead....that being said, how was the shopping?  Did you find anything?"

Bell and Rango looked at each other, then pulled out their luggage with dubious looks on their faces.

"This one, right?  It certainly fits the characteristics you described, but I'm not sure if this is really the right one..."

As Rango said this and placed the item in front of Van, a question mark appeared over the heads of those around him.

The model looks like a triangle made out of wooden sticks. The triangles stand side by side, assembled at the top and bottom, to form a three-dimensional shape.

There was a long stick in the center of the triangle and it looked like a child's toy.

Seeing it, nine-year-old Van's eyes lit up.

"A true trebuchet!  I knew it was there, something like this!"

Everyone's eyes twinkled as Van, overjoyed, loaded the miniature rock thrower with pebbles and sent it flying.

Only Till and Camsin, however, smiled at the sight and looked at him with a hint of trust.
