The Status Window Disappeared

The one who flies above the one who jumps (5)

The footwork of the man who appeared in a place where numerous soldiers were confronted was as light as walking in the front yard of his own house.

Allied and Imperial forces.

The two armies were confronting each other at a close distance from the beginning.

Because of this, the man who was moving with strides quickly came within range of the allied forces.

However, even though the monster was approaching the fortress, the arrow did not fly.

It wasn’t because they mistook him for some kind of messenger.

For the Empire’s Prime Minister to step aside, the man was dressed in a very shabby manner.

Putting on a hood that was no different from a gigantic atmosphere, he looked worse than a slightly wealthy soldier.

However, Chris felt a sense of danger from the man’s dignified gait and stiffened his body.

The feeling I got when I found the king’s guardians in the imperial army’s garrison before.

But it’s on a different level from then.

Chris said softly, suppressing the desire to run away right away.

“Elrom, let’s step back. That bastard is not kidding!”

“yes?”

Unfortunately, Elrom didn’t notice the slightest hint of his opponent’s skills.

The men, who had been approaching leisurely, stopped at a distance where they could see each other’s faces, and murmured in a low voice.

“The Blade of Grief.”

The epic item that was called by the owner immediately appeared in the man’s hand.

Chris and Tyrone, who were hiding on the side of the fort, saw it and groaned.

“He looks like an aborigine… Did you kill the player and steal it?”

“It’s about the size of the Blade of Grief, because we have it too… … .”

“Don’t compare it to your poor imitations.”

The man replied in a slightly annoyed voice, as if he knew about Chris’ party’s ambush from the beginning.

Chris listened to it and held his breath while examining the man’s sword closely.

The curved blade was the same as his, but the man’s sword felt a little stronger.

“I… That’s dangerous. You’ll probably die just by brushing against it.”

The moment Illesis, who was next to me, felt the energy of the sword and trembled anxiously.

The man held it lightly above his head, then lowered it roughly in a very insincere manner.

It was a slash that seemed ridiculous at first glance, but the result was far from ridiculous.

Chris, who was watching the man’s movements, trembled all over and shouted urgently.

“late! damage!”

When the energy from the sword strike hit the fortress, the whole gate was blown away with deafening explosions.

Before the allied forces could properly grasp the situation, the stone blocks that formed the wall were scattered and soared up into the sky without knowing how high they were before falling with terrifying momentum.

The soldiers inside the fort hurriedly crouched down to protect their heads, but it didn’t have much effect.

The rocks, attracted by the ruthless gravity, grant equal death to men, women, children, and people of all ages.

From noble mtl dot com

Morale, which had been anxious because of the Prime Minister’s speech, fell to the bottom due to a single attack.

Chris and his party, watching the stranger’s eccentricity from the side, almost instinctively try to pull themselves out.

A feat that Elrom’s troops accumulated over the course of several days non-stop in the mountains.

It collapsed in vain at the same time as that man appeared.

But there was no room for regret.

Now, the first priority is to run away from the natural disaster right in front of you.

The man seemed to know what the allied forces were thinking and allowed them to retreat.

“Abandon the fort right now and leave. I will not pursue anyone who runs away.”

“Oh, thank you.”

Hearing the man’s cry, Tyrone immediately turned his horse and attempted to escape.

Then Elom quickly catches him.

“Oh, where are you going!”

“Where are you going? If you run away, it will save you. Do you think we would be able to catch him if we attacked him?”

Breton’s prime minister came away with an outrageous foul play.

I had roughly noticed that he was being assisted by the other Six Kings, but…

To think that it must have been the Sword King, who was treated as a special rank among the Six Kings.

Elom shakes his head, blaming himself for his complacency.

“Yeah, but I can’t give up on this mountain range. The soldiers of the fort are also holding up well.”

Just as Elrom said, the soldiers of the fortress couldn’t escape quickly even though their legs were trembling.

Chris and his party are just passing travelers and mercenaries, but they are rooted in this land.

If you run away from this place now, it is tantamount to giving up their property and family.

Tyrone sighs at Elom’s dissuade.

“Then how are you going to stop that man? Don’t you know that the only way to stop the Six Kings is to bring in another Six Kings?”

“that… … .”

Elrom, speechless, could not come up with a sharp countermeasure.

I thought that even if it was the King of Swords, if thousands of people attacked all at once, the odds of winning would be very slim… … .

In fact, even thinking about him like this feels like a kind of disrespect.

If he, a commander recognized by Frederick, was like this, the other soldiers wouldn’t even have to speak.

Tired of the wait, which wasn’t particularly long, the Sword King raised his longsword again and helped the allied forces with their selection. As before, when the insincere slashes flew in, and the soldiers on the half-destroyed wall closed their eyes and prepared for death.

Tung! With a groan, an intangible force received his slash.

As Chris tilted his head at the familiar sound, a man walked out from inside the collapsed wall.

The bard, a man whom Chris and his friends have encountered several times, holds a lute as usual and babbles in a cheerful voice.

“Oh, what if someone like the Sword King messes around with the kids? Is it fun to play like that?”

“… Why are you here?”

Only then did the Sword King take off his hood and face the bard.

The man, who seemed to stand on the border between youth and middle age, gave a slightly nervous impression.

The bard is not discouraged by his sharp eyes and gladly responds.

“Hey, I’m here to help the allied forces. There must have been King Geumwang over there, but wouldn’t it be balanced this way?”

“Why do I need you to balance it out?”

The Sword King asked briefly in a cold voice.

The minstrel sighs at his momentum, which seems to be leaving at any moment.

“The Prime Minister of Breton seems to be thinking of teaching the citizens letters and creating a newspaper to deliver news from all over the world and manipulate public opinion… If that happens, our minstrels will lose their jobs? My food line is hanging, so I have to be able to pretend I don’t know. So why did the Sword King get involved in a fight like this?”

The bard, who explained smoothly with a pleasant tone and voice, immediately asked about the circumstances of the sword king.

It was a calculation that if you were lucky, you would be able to find an amicable agreement between the two.

On the other hand, Chris was a bit dumbfounded as he recalled the image of him reciting a hymn to the singer.

Aren’t you ashamed to sing about yourself?

The Sword King replied in a quiet but clear voice with low emotion.

“When this war is over, we decided to subdue Elgar together with the Empire.”

“uh… Really? Do you think those who can’t capture even one of these forts will be of help in the fight against the demon lord?”

The imperial army was furious at the bard’s words, but the sword king, who was involved, only responded coldly.

“That would be better than nothing. If you replace them, there is nothing you can’t help them with.”

Everyone on the battlefield held their breath at the very unconventional proposal of the Sword King.

The Imperial Army earnestly prays for Bard’s objection, while the Allies earnestly agree.

After thinking briefly, the bard eventually shook his head and betrayed the expectations of his allies.

“I would rather kill myself than fight against the demon king.”

“Yes, in the end he chose to commit suicide.”

The King of Swords took a proper stance in response to the King of Singers.

Among the Six Kings, the Sword King and the Demon King are strong in a separate class.

For the king of singers, who was mentioned as the weakest of the six kings, to stop such a sword king is tantamount to committing suicide.

However, the king of singers waves his hands to stop him, as if the story is not over yet.

“Wait. Are you really going to fight me? Only then will the loss outweigh the gain… … .”

“What does that mean?”

The true weapon of a bard is not a flimsy tone or sword skill, but a tongue.

The King of Singers confidently teases his tongue, recalling the story he has uttered countless times to his disciples.

“You know that I never give in to those juniors when it comes to food, right? No matter how much the sword king is, if I rush to die, at least one wrist… Oh, that just got a little cheeky. If not all the wrists, maybe a finger or two.”

“… … .”

The Sword King does not deny the opponent’s words and maintains an immovable stance.

The bard continues to persuade, excited by his silent affirmation.

“If your alliance with them is more important than your own fingers, let’s try it. Just in time, my juniors were whining about the lack of singing.”

“… give up Cutting someone like you is not something to be proud of.”

The sword king let out a small sigh and stepped back, and cheers erupted from the allied forces.

However, the King of Kings, who succeeded him, could not smile comfortably.

Despite the ambitious hidden card being blown away, the prime minister still did not lose his smile.

The king of singers belatedly realized that there was a second chapter and asked the king of swords.

“Could it be that there are other options besides the Sword King?”

“of course. Gold King, since that money ghost entered the game, how can he hire a few mercenaries and end up?”

At the same time as the Sword King replied as if giving a scolding, an ominous noise began to be heard from the other side of the vegetation.

The owner of the noise that filled the sky soon revealed his identity.

Chris and Tyrone clicked their tongues at the Prime Minister’s second card.

“Ah, are you really crazy? When did you make that again?”

“This is a foul play.”

“Um, what is that all about?”

Illesis shook her eyes at the shadows cast over her head.

Chris responds to her with a devastated heart, as if lamenting.

“Ah, that is an airplane. If it flies right now, it will be an object without an answer.”

The shadows that filled the sky were more than 100, no matter how small they were.

Even if all of those things aren’t bombers, the Wingless Allies can’t stop them.

The wizards including Illesis and the king hurriedly tried to shoot them down, but the sword king’s one sword wiped away the spell and the yin ball.

How many planes would it have fallen if he hadn’t intervened?

It’s useless to think about it now.

The allied forces, including Chris and his party, closed their eyes tightly as they intuited their end.

Even if the troops in this position are safe, it will be the end if they bomb the rear area.

The end of an army cut off from supply lines was always miserable.

When the prime minister, who had been confident of victory before, finally burst into laughter, allied soldiers hurriedly left their seats.

However, their escape did not last very long.

It was because a new army appeared from the back of the mountain range, the last line of defense for the Allies.

A death knight armed with ironclad stands at the forefront of the dead who have appeared while scattering dark morale.

Chris recognizes him commanding Elgar’s legion and unconsciously gnaws his molars.

Unlike the undead usually summoned by necromancers, Elgar’s forces were not messy at all.

Reaching the summit without any resistance, the Death Knight stood between the Allied and Imperial forces.

Then, in a cold voice, it is announced to everyone.

“My queen has spoken. The sky is too early for you guys!”

“early! early!”

As the army of the dead chanted, shadows appeared in the sky on the Allied side.

Unlike the dull and loud planes, the uninvited guests this time were quite quiet and lively.

However, the guys who smelled the blood on the battlefield quickly howled loudly, boosting their fighting spirit.

Soldiers on both sides shudder at their iron wings and hooked claws.

“Go, gargoyles!”

“What are so many of them?”

The number of gargoyles brought by the death knight is approximately 300 or more.

The fighters who received the order from the lead quickly tried to attack, but were quickly swept away because they were so outnumbered.

Besides, it was because he was Elgar’s undead, so he didn’t fall out easily even if he ate a machine gun.

Seeing the scene, Illesis quietly admired it.

“I heard that gargoyles can only be defeated with magical attacks… … .”

“Huh? That man runs away.”

Realizing that things had gone wrong, the Sword King left without regret.

I said anything about subjugating Elgar earlier, but it seemed like it was daunting to fight her head-on.

The death knight, convinced of victory in the sky, attacks the main body of the Imperial Army with momentum.

The king’s guardians guarding the prime minister struggled to block his sword.

“Second, Prime Minister! Get out of here!”

“… It’s just because of one person’s mood that things turn out this way.”

Even thinking about it himself, the Prime Minister laughs and avoids himself as if it is absurd.

Chris thought about pursuing him, but changed his mind after seeing the undead rampaging against the imperial army.

The undead in battle tear and bite the bodies of their victims, instantly drawing a picture of hell.

Despite the fact that most of the undead had their backs turned, the allies did not even dare to attack them.

In the blink of an eye, the forces that destroyed the imperial army turned around and disappeared somewhere.

Chris and his party, who had been lying flat in the grass, were able to shake off the dirt and get up.
