“Then, I’m off!”

I saluted the garrison captain of the fort, who was watching me curiously and launched the Buitor revised. The takeoff method is not a vertical takeoff, but a normal takeoff using the runway I just cut.

I’m sure he’s saying, ‘What!? It flew!?’. Some of the soldiers beside the garrison captain sat down as if their hip gave up.

Incidentally, this Buitor Rev. is the result of a series of improvements to Buitor in preparation for this war.

First of all, the fuselage has grown a size or two. The cockpit is covered with removable polycarbonate panels from the front and part of the sides, which are aerodynamic and protect me from the wind chill, although I still have to lie down to fly. Also due to the larger fuselage, it has more space for storing things.

In addition, it is designed to be ridden by two people with Anna in mind, so once I rescue her, I hope to enjoy flying with her again.

And the main feature is that it has been modified to be able to operate as a bomber. I’ll explain this as I use it.

I’m currently flying at a low altitude of about 200 meters above the ground. Normally, when I fly, I fly at a height of about 1,000 meters, though I measure it by eye. However, I choose this altitude because I can use binoculars to visually check whether the soldiers on the ground are friends or foes at a height of about 200 meters.

By the way, these binoculars were also made by me. I’m not an expert, so I couldn’t make anything too sophisticated, but the mechanism itself is not difficult, so I think I was able to make something decent.

It’s a bit bulky, though.

Now, as I was doing this reconnaissance flight, I spotted an enemy unit ahead of me.

There were fifty, maybe a hundred of them. I don’t know how the Est army is being distributed, but it’s probably on the scale of a company.

Oh, well. Let’s make these guys my first target. This is war now. There is no time for hesitation.

I move into glide flight and perform alchemy to shift the Buitor Rev. into bombing mode. Bombing requires a bit of concentration, so I don’t want to waste any magic power.

And when I reached the airspace above the enemy troops, I start bombing them. The enemy troops don’t seem to have noticed me.

Round transparent spheres were created from the belly of the Buitor Rev.’s fuselage and were dropped one after another.

This ball doesn’t use gunpowder at all, but it’s still a decent bomb, and it’s quite powerful.

First of all, this ball is made of ice. And, the ball has a hollow structure that is filled with appropriately sharp pebbles, glass pieces, metal pieces, etc., along with compressed air.

And this ball has a magic circle dug into it which magically reinforced only the inside to prevent it from bursting under the pressure. I don’t know what the air pressure is inside, but let’s just say it’s very high.

When this bomb hits the ground, the ice, which is not reinforced against any impact from the outside, easily breaks and the magic circle loses its effect. The result is a powerful blast and shock wave that scatters sharp, hard objects. In other words, it’s just a bomb with no gunpowder or fuse.

Even if I didn’t put anything sharp in it, I could at least kill an Orc if it exploded nearby.

But when something sharp splashes together, it can damage a wide range of Orcs. In other words, it can put more enemies out of combat by the same logic as a fragmentation grenade (Frag grenade).

Of course, I don’t have advanced technology such as targeting or precision guidance, so I have to rely entirely on free fall, but I drop a lot of bombs in the spirit of hitting the target in numbers.

At first, I was going to make a proper bomb, but it didn’t work because I didn’t have the proper knowledge of fuses, and the cost was too much.

But this approach solves all of those problems.

Because the only materials needed to make this bomb are small, low-value magic stones such as Horn Rabbit’s and Goblin’s magic stones, and sharp objects that you can find in the area.

You may think that there is nothing in the sky, but as long as there are clouds, there is water vapour, and unless you are in an arid region, there is no shortage of water.

Moreover, it is not carried in the form of a bomb, so there is no danger of it going off.

I’ve brought along five little magic bags full of ingredients that I’ve been knocking around at the Lurden Store. These bags have been a bit of a pain, but I can’t turn my back on them.

Anyway, if I don’t run out of this material, I won’t have to worry about running out of ammunition.

And I’m at an altitude of about 200 meters, so the magic and bows of the Imperial soldiers can’t reach me no matter what.

In the meantime, the bomb I had dropped fell to the ground and exploded.

Starting with a loud explosion, dozens of bombs that I had dropped in batches exploded one after another, and the sound of the explosions echoed from this far behind me. I turned to check the results while regaining the altitude I had lost.

Then I checked the area where the smoke was rising. It was too small to see with binoculars, but I couldn’t see anyone moving. It looked like they were annihilated.

Hmm? If I look closely, I can see someone moving at the edge, but he appears to be injured.

However, even though I’m used to seeing them when I’m fighting off demons and bandits, I feel like I might get PTSD if I see too much of what I’ve done, so I’ll leave it at that.

I’ve taken away the combat capability of a single company, and that should be enough.

“Mission accomplished. Now, on to the next.”

I steeled myself and looked for the next enemy unit. Then I drop bombs on the enemy units I find.

In this way, I found enemy units and bombed them, and when the sun was setting, I finished the first day’s battle and returned to the base.
(Tl:- What to say he massacred the battlefield. (°ー°〃) )

“Allen returned”
“Oh, oh. Good work there. I heard some kind of tremendous noise over and over again. What was that?”
“It’s me. Today’s results include the annihilation of 4 battalion-sized Imperial troops, 12 company-sized Imperial troops, and 9 platoon-sized Imperial troops.”
“Wha? What did you say? How the hell did you do that?”
“I bombed them from the sky with magic. They didn’t seem to understand what was going on, so it would work for a while yet.”
“Oh, oh”

The garrison captain of the fort replied although he did not seem to understand what was happening.
