This and the previous chapter hit real hard. Did not expect an isekai to deal with loss like this but I guess that's how war is.
I hope their sacrifices were not in vain.

That luncheon was full of charade, made my blood boil.

I didn't expect to get ambushed by feels while reading this chapter.

The duchess made an enemy of the protagonists and intends to use them as a sacrificial pawn to gain more influence. As theblosses increase eventually their unit will end up more popular than the duchess, hopefully they can find a larger ally who isnt so utilitarian or regressive so as many of them who survive by the end of it can live a life away from loss and death.

They shall not grow old,
As we who are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them,
Nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning,
We will remember them.

Oddzielili cię, córeczko, od snów, co jak motyl drżą,
haftowali ci, córeczko smutne oczy rudą krwią,
malowali krajobrazy w żółte ściegi pożóg,
wyszywali wisielcami drzew płynące morze.

Wyuczyli cię, córeczko, ziemi twej na pamięć,
gdyś jej ścieżki wycinała żelaznymi łzami.
Odchowali cię w ciemności, odkarmili bochnem trwóg,
przemierzyłaś po omacku najwstydliwsze z ludzkich dróg.

I wyszedłaś, jasna córko, z czarną bronią w noc,
i poczułaś, jak się jeży w dźwięku minut – zło.
Zanim padłaś, jeszcze ziemię przeżegnałaś ręką.
Czy to była kula, córko, czy to serce pękło?

Salute to these Brave Girls.......hope they Got Reincarnated to peaceful Japan and enjoy those parfaits.

They shall not grow old,
As we who are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them,
Nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning,
We will remember them.

In Flanders Fields.

Fitting, given how close of a time period it is to WW1, comparatively...

RIP, something bout wishing them to reincarnate to Japan is so sweet

Given he's got the grim reaper's favor, maybe they will be 🥲

I have the mental image of Terry Pratchett's Death turning up, and gently coaxing the troops to follow him.
