The Witch Of Ruin's: The Precious Person In My Life (The Witch of Destruction)
Vol.3 Chapter 17: Towards Oni Attack - 2
( Author)
Two days had passed after a long wait, the relief forces from Hirotsuki had finally arrived at Fukuo Village.
Taking a 2-day journey from the Capital to the village of Fukuo, the relief troops who arrived in the village of Fukuo have now rested due to exhaustion from the long journey.
Mitsui has met with the Commander of the relief force to carry out a strategy plan! because the attack this time could be bigger than before and also the threat of kishin meddling in the battle, forcing them to conduct a strategy meeting early.
In the meeting at first, we had to make a trench that was long enough and also deep enough to slow down the movement of the oni a little. Mitsui learned the information he got from the attack the other day that targeted the village on the border of Seitto and Takagawa.
According to the news that the oni who attacked the border area amounted to almost thousands of Oni consisting of a combination of lower class Oni, Midrage Oni, and High oni plus seoramg kishin.
Mistui also learns that the oni attack will be stronger on the night of the full moon! And the night will come 1 day from this moment.
Without having to waste time, Mitsui and the captain of the relief force directly told the troops to immediately set up a ditch outside the area of the death forest.
The planning was a little rushed, as they would come face to face with the oni on a night instead of a full moon! They could not waste time just like that, if they humiliated him then they would end up with a defeat.
The construction of the trench is planned to have a width of 6 meters, a length of 250 meters and a depth of 15 meters. A moat will be formed encircling the border area of Fukuo Village and the forest of death! This is designed so that when the oni attack then the villagers have a lot of time to be able to leave quickly and the oni hunter troops can hold it long enough.
And as an additional measure, the troops are divided into three main forces on the front line, the Left Side Army and the right side troops.
The main force was assigned to directly face the oni in the front row when the oni had passed through the safety trench.
The left-sided troops will be tasked to take precautions and attack the oni from the Southeast side of the final fissure of the trench.
The right-sided forces will be assigned to attack on the north side of the final fissure of the safety trench.
Each army will be divided based on the number where the main army numbered 200 people who will face the oni from the front side.
Left and right-sided forces numbered 50 each that would attack from a weak point.
This division of the army is planned because the oni from the weak point will not be able to attack with a large number.
After all the preparations were finished the troops prepared in their respective positions before the full moon arrived.

[ Flashbacks]
[Two days earlier ]
( Rey)
Senpai and I have decided to go back to asking for help from onee-chan for the attack this time. We plan to ask ofuda to return to him.
“ I understand what you are going to do, but this time I may not equip you with ofuda which contains Destruction Magic....... because there is a possibility if humans will also be impacted from ofuda it “ (Mainna )
“Be-really!? “ (shinjou )
“ hmmm.....senpai! it seems like this time we will have a little trouble.......... but what onee-chan said is true, if the oni hunter troops come to fight when the oni attack then!? There is a chance that they will be affected!!! Added onee-chan should not be able to show his original strength to many people “ (Rey )
“ said by Rei-chan does have a point....... People will be suspicious of an ofuda who can eliminate many oni in an instant and will look for the maker ofuda.......in addition, because the attack this time involves the aid forces from the Capital, it will certainly spread very easily “ (Mainna )
Due to the presence of the relief forces from the capital, it made onee-chan have to be a little wary especially since the rumors could have circulated very easily. I also don't want, people from this country to look for onee-chan just because she created a dangerous magic ofida.
“ good “ (Shinjou )
Senpai seemed to have understood what onee-chan and I had conveyed.
“ but if onee-chan doesn't provide ofuda with destruction magic!? “ (Rey )
I started to ask a little about it.
If onee-chan does not provide ofuda which contains destruction magic then we will definitely be overwhelmed especially if the attack this time there is a kishin hand cmpur.
“soal it, I have prepared 2 other different types ofuda “ (Mainna )
Onee-chan then took out the 4 pieces of of ofuda paper she had prepared. Two ofuda were given to me and two more were given to senpai.
“ Ofuda it gives large-scale Fire magic and also teleportation magic........ you two just need to use it before the oni Hunter army attacks “ (Mainna )
“ So so!! Thank you Onee-chan “ (Rey )
Onee-chan says she replaced ofuda's destruction magic with Ofuda's fire magic. I believe that if it was onee-chan then even a large Number of Troops could be easily defeated.
Our preparations seemed to have been completed, From the two bottles of healing potion that had been prepared by onee-chan and also Ofuda in an emergency.
We just have to wait until the attack arrives, but the main problem here is.
If one of us comes face to face indirectly with Kishin. It would be a problem if we were face to face.
I might have arranged a plan if I had to go head to head with kishin, but senpai!?
He seems to be having trouble dealing directly with kishin, but he is helped by Suzune! So it won't be a problem if he can't win. As long as Senpai can buy time then it is more than enough.
[Reverse Flash]
[2 Days passed ]
The day we were waiting for had arrived, Senpai had caught me outside the house.
“ onee-chan....
“ caution ..... rei-chan “ (Mainna ).
Onee-chan and hichiko-nee encouraged me before I left.
“ Well.......I will definitely be back “ (Rey )
With that word, I began to say goodbye to the two of them. Only the two of them were there to welcome my departure, except for the miyu.......
He and I may never get along, but I wonder what he's really up to?
“ You're too long....... Uncle can scold us if we are not fast “ (Shinjou )
“ Sorry senpai...... let's go “ (Rey ).
Together with senpai, we began to prepare to head towards the village border. No matter what happens, we must return safely!!!

Where's mainna.
Mainna and Hichiko who escorted rey's departure looked rather sad.
“ Ah....... This place is getting quieter, I hope Rei-kun will return safely “ (Hichiko )
Hichiko begins to worry about Rey leaving, she seems to feel lonely when there is one of the people she already considers family members going to battle.
“ Rei-chan will definitely return........... “ (Mainna )
“ oh yes....... Mainna-dono why don't you say if you will also interfere this time!? Wouldn't it be easier if you also entered the battlefield together with them!? “ (Hichiko )
Hichiko and mainna were talking about something, Hichiko realized that mainna would also interfere in the oni battle this time, but she did not want to say it.
“ About it....... Hichi-chan, you know, future predictions can't happen if little ripples start to move. Even if you want to change that future with your own hands, then let it go as it should, healing potion order has been increasing lately “ (Mainna )
“ Alright mainna-dono......... but the future yes!? If you let the future run as it should!? it doesn't seem so bad either.... I can meet you it's a boon for me “ (Hichiko ).
By ending their conversation, mainna and hichiko began to return to their jobs to make the hea’ing potion.
The future probably won't work out as much as I want it to, if we want to really change it then it should come from us and let that time run its course.

Miyu, hearing of the second oni attack, is planning an escape so that she can meet Akagiri again, but on the other hand, she wants to stay with Mainna and Hichiko.
At this time his feelings are chaotic, because he cannot choose between trusting Them or trusting Akagiri as his master first.
...‘ Either way, I will not be able to calm down before meeting directly with Mr. Akagiri.. until the time comes I can definitely meet him again with ‘ ...
