Chapter 29: The Age of Knights has Already Passed

Under the cover of night, the army in which Berengar had formed rapidly covered the distance between Kufstein and Wildschönau; by the time the dawn had arrived, they had occupied mining town and detained Ulrich's workers. The sappers in the field began to construct fortifications surrounding the mining towns.

By the end of the day, the makeshift town would resemble a miniature version of fortifications used during the Siege of Petersburg from Berengar's previous life. The volunteer militia manned the fortifications while others interrogated the workers that had been detained.

Eckhard personally oversaw this effort. He began by speaking to the workforce Berengar had brought with him, which was far more loyal to the people of Kufstein where they had grown up. However, they were unaware of the assassination plot, but when they heard that Berengar might be stuck in the mines; they quickly revealed the only information they knew.
