Another World Warrior Who Uses a Shop - Another World Warrior Who Uses a Shop chapter 98

A heart to give to others

“It passed more quietly than I thought.”

I almost left the Askan territory before I knew it. If you go a little further, you will come to a forest, and if you leave the forest, it is the estate of Marquis Benting.

“But don’t relax. You don’t know what to do.”

“okay.”

At La Hansen’s words, Hyeonjun nodded. You can’t be vigilant until you get out of this place completely.

The June & Gunther mercenaries moved nonstop and reached the entrance of the forest before sunset. And there, again, opinions diverged.

“The forest at night is too dangerous. We must camp here and enter tomorrow morning.”

“If you pass the forest, it is the territory of the innovative group. We need to break through quickly with a night march.”

Hyeon-jun quietly listened to what Gunther and La Hansen were saying.

“If you’re attacked at night in a forest like this, you won’t be able to deal with it properly.”

“It’s the same even during the day. Rather, we should break through immediately, bearing in mind that there will be a pursuer.”

At La Hansen’s words, Hyeonjun shook his head.

“The difference between day and night in the forest is stark. You know it well, don’t you?”

Lahansen kept his mouth shut. The first place he tried to assassinate Hyeon-jun was in the forest at night. I thought I could win when I turned on the light and drove him, but Hyeon-joon, who hid himself in the darkness, shook like a shadow and I couldn’t catch him, and he was slaughtered without even using my hands.

“We’re camping here. We won’t even train today. Get a good rest and prepare for tomorrow’s battle.”

The sun hadn’t even gone down yet, but Hyeon-jun decided to camp here. Everyone could tell from Hyeon-jun’s words that he was sure that there would be a battle tomorrow.

Preparations for camp were quickly completed, and after supper, everyone quickly lay down. Because they had camped and marched for a long time, their stamina was very bad. You should rest as much as possible now.

The June & Gunter mercenaries woke up early in the morning, had a meal, and warmed up. I don’t know when there will be a battle, but I didn’t want to go into the forest half awake.

Meanwhile, La Hansen pondered and opened his mouth.

“Why don’t you leave the carriage and go? Get off the road and take a detour through the woods and you’ll be safe.”

“It makes sense, but you can’t move food without a wagon.”

“Wouldn’t it be okay if we shared it?”

“That’s enough to feed sixteen people for three days. You can’t fight with a heavy load on your back. And even if you stray from the road, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to avoid it.”

“…Um. I see.”

If the enemy has come this far and is preparing to attack, there will be no way to avoid the battle. Whether they settled in an exquisite position or widened the siege, they must have prepared with confidence.

“I also have to think about it after getting out of here. Even if it’s Marquis Benting’s estate, it’s too huge. You have to go a long way to meet the Marquis.

“Yes. I have no choice but to fight in the end.”

Hyeonjun smiled and patted La Hansen’s head.

“Be firmly prepared.”

And in a loud voice, he spoke to others.

“You guys, wake up! I won’t let a dying man go!”

“hehehe, he’s dead, so what are you going to do?”

“I will dress her up and give her a grand funeral for all to see.”

“You crazy bastard!”

Everyone shuddered. I would rather die than look like that… . No, I have to work hard not to die.

Hyeonjun’s words eased the stiff atmosphere a little. Hyeonjun and Gunther mounted the horses, and the others rode the wagon. Lahansen was also accustomed to the carriage now, so he did not hesitate to get on the horse.

“let’s go.”

With Hyeonjun’s words, the mercenaries began to move slowly. Didn’t speed up. It is difficult to deal with sudden situations, and even if you are riding a horse or carriage, speeding up consumes your stamina. After going for a while, Hyeonjun spoke.

“There is a guy who came to scout.”

“Damn it. Shall we speed it up?”

“It doesn’t make any sense anyway. It goes like this.”

I have no choice but to face it head-on. Hyunjoon took a deep breath. The fresh morning air from the forest filled my lungs and let go of the tightness in my chest. Hyunjoon smiled bitterly.

‘I’d rather feel at ease if I’m alone.’

Hyeon-joon alone would have been able to sneak into the woods at night, kill them all using guerrilla tactics, and get out. Even if I had to fight head-on, I wouldn’t have felt as anxious as I am now.

Hyeon-jun had no anxiety about his safety at all. There is only concern for those who believed in him and followed him.

“Jun, don’t ignore us too much.”

From noble mtl dot com

At that time, Gunther spoke to Hyeonjun in a low voice.

“We are also guys who used to earn money with spear knives, and compared to you, we are not good enough, but we are not guys who get lost anywhere. Trust us.”

Hyeonjun quietly nodded his head at Gunter, who spoke in a serious voice.

Certainly, Gunter, who has a lot of experience and has a good sense of humor, is a reliable guy who says what he has to say at times like this.

“Leave the command.”

“okay.”

Not long after, an explosion was heard in the distance. The sound resonated through the forest, and I couldn’t help but hear it.

“There must be a wizard too.”

“It could be a magic tool. Wizards don’t normally move well.”

At La Hansen’s words, Hyeonjun nodded. It was special that Burgel moved for the assassination.

Wizards have difficulty coping with sudden situations and become helpless in close combat. It is not good at sending out high-quality personnel who are full of weaknesses.

If you think like that, you can see how low the value of Burgel was in Situvan.

Lahansen thought for a moment, then bit his lip and said.

“Jun, there might be a knight.”

“article? Did the knight move for the assassination?”

“If these assassins were sent from the Situvan family, there might be an article. My thoughts were short.”

Originally, after the assassination was successful, he had to return to Taxis and contact the Henen family. However, even after a long time passed from the scheduled assassination time, there was no contact. because it failed It’s a very fatal failure for the Situvan family, and if they knew where Hyeon-jun was headed, they would do everything possible to kill him.

“It may have been contact with Andechs or Askan. If the knight rode his horse with all his might, he would have arrived here already.”

“What about Andechs and Askan?”

“They have no reason to take big risks. If Sithuban hadn’t intervened, he would have used unidentified men to assassinate them, or just sent them off, as I did.”

Hyunjoon took a moment to organize his thoughts. I don’t know if Andechs or Askan are orthodox or aristocratic. However, an attack was prepared on Askan’s territory, and Askan was definitely the enemy. If Situban had contact with Askan, there would be a knight here.

“Anyway, it can’t be avoided now.”

Hyeonjun raised his hand after checking the people who started to see from afar.

The mercenaries moved their wagons to block the flanks and rear, formed formations, and waited.

Soon a group of people arrived in front of them and stopped. There are 20 of them without any markings even though they are clearly regular soldiers. And above all, there is a person wearing full plate armor. it’s a knight

“Kuk!”

Lahansen gritted his teeth and involuntarily took a step back.

There was no pattern on the knight’s armor, but he could tell who it was just by looking at him standing there.

“This is Sir Yerdu of Situban.”

“You know me well?”

“This is the knight I served.”

“Is it strong?”

“Yes. It’s a knight.”

The groups on both sides stopped, and Hyeon-jun got off his horse and strode without hesitation, standing right between the two groups.

“What’s your business?”

At Hyeon-jun’s unstoppable words, the article also approached. He stopped in front of Hyun-jun and said.

“If you surrender, I will spare the lives of others.”

Hyunjoon smiled.

“Knight, are you looking for honor even after coming here?”

Despite the ridicule, the knight, Yerdu, silently looked at Hyeon-jun.

In order to assassinate Hyeon-jun, he erased even the family crest and ran day and night to come here. The knight’s honor had already fallen to the ground and trampled underfoot, all at the behest of his lord.

“You didn’t kill La Hansen.”

“Yes. I don’t want to kill children. Are you dissatisfied?”

“Not at all.”

Hearing those emotionless words, La Hansen clenched his fists and trembled. But no one comforted him or looked back.

“Adventurer Jun, I challenge you to a duel.”

“Ha, do you have any honor left to challenge you to a duel?”

Yerdu nodded quietly. There was no hatred or anger in the glinting eyes beyond the visor.

Only the cold, frozen coolness is visible.

“okay. If I win, I will spare your men. If you win, I’ll make them back. by any means.”

At that, the expression on Hyunjoon’s face disappeared.

“Yerdu. Your honor and promises are unnecessary. No matter how the duel ends, the guys behind you won’t stop.”

“…….”

Hyeonjun saw the eyes through the visor quietly close. The knight’s honor was trampled on so cruelly.

“But I will accept the duel. I will kill you, kill them all, and get out safely. Then.”

Hyeonjun drew his sword, spun it, and aimed it at Jerdu.

“They are not my subordinates. They are my colleagues.”

“Ha, you’re better than me.”

Jerdu pulled out his sword while helping himself. Then, in a low but clear voice, he warned.

“I will kill anyone who interferes with the duel.”

The soldiers standing behind him trembled at that cool force. Hyeonjun also smiled and said.

“You are the ones who gave your life. Trust me.”

A chilly silence lingered.

The sound of bugs in the forest is gone, and only the sound of the wind and rustling leaves is heard.

The expression on Hyeonjun’s face completely disappeared, and his momentum disappeared. Despite the creepy change, Jerdu calmly aimed his sword.

Hyeonjun’s swordplay swayed slightly, and at the same time they rushed at each other.

“Suck!”

The attack came and went at once.

Hyeon-jun put his sword at the bottom and thrust it up from an exquisite distance, aiming for the head with a sword pole, and Jerdu put his sword in the middle and rushed at it, pressing down on Hyeon-jun’s sword and trying to strike it with his shoulder.

Sreung!

Hyeonjun suddenly turned his body around as soon as the swords collided.

He retrieved his sword and escaped to Yerdu’s side. Because of this, even when the swords touched each other, only the sound of metal rubbing could be heard.

Hyeonjun immediately turned around and lowered his stance to cut into Jerdu’s lower body.

visor!

Jerdu reacted at once to the irregular movement, blocked Hyeon-jun’s sword, and lifted Hyeon-jun’s low-stance head with his knee.

Hyeonjun dodged it with a light blow.

“hmm!”

Yerdu rushed towards Hyeon-jun with momentum.

It is the charge of a knight fully armed with full plate armor. Hyeon-jun had already seen that fear once.

Hyeonjun stepped back, then turned and threw himself to the side. After rolling on the floor without hesitation, I jumped up and bit my body again.

Jerdu, who activated the magic enchanted on his armor, rushed at great speed, then cleverly stopped the magic and turned around to pursue Hyeon-jun.

Hyeonjun kept stepping back, but the moment Jerdu got closer, he stretched out his left hand.

Pak!

Flames burst out, but they disappeared immediately, blocked by the magic defense granted to the armor.

However, for a brief moment, Yerdu’s view was blocked, and Hyeon-jun was able to pull himself out to the side again.

Jerdu’s sword bent after Hyeon-jun, and Hyeon-jun quickly grabbed the sword with both hands and blocked it.

At that moment, Yerdu’s wrist was suddenly bent and his sword was entangled with Hyeonjun’s sword.

Jerdu pulled his arm and pressed Hyeon-jun’s sword close to his armor. After holding Hyeon-jun’s sword firmly with his own sword and armor, he recklessly dug in and swung his elbow, aiming for Hyeon-jun’s head.

Empty!

“Kuk!”

Even Hyun-joon couldn’t help but be surprised by the unexpected move.

Instead of stepping back or confronting him, Hyeonjun turned his body to the side and raised his left arm to block Jerdu’s elbow, following the sword drawn by Jerdu.

Hyeonjun’s body staggered from the shock, and Jerdu moved his arm slightly to swing the sword. At that moment, Hyeonjun drew out his sword at once with great reaction speed and swung it round and round at Jerdu’s head.

visor!

The swords collided, Hyeon-jun’s wrists spun at an almost impossible angle, and the swords broke and struck Jerdu’s head with the back blade. Despite the shock, Jerdu didn’t stop and swung his sword and struck Hyeonjun’s shoulder.

Both attacks were blocked by the armor and did not have much effect, and Hyeon-jun kicked Jerdu’s body and stepped back. Knights and close combat are too dangerous.

“Whoa…”

Hyeon-jun widened the distance, and there was a brief lull. Hyeonjun sighed and aimed his sword.

Yerdu ran again. Hyeon-jun also spurred on the ground at once. At that moment, light came out of Jerdu’s armor and shot out at an unbelievable speed. Hyeonjun blew fire from his left hand again.

Pak!

However, it was immediately blocked by magic defense and disappeared. Yerdu rushed without hesitation. Jerdu, who passed the flames with the determination to destroy any attack from the front, hesitated without realizing it. there is no hyun joon

It is still too early for Hyeon-jun to engage in close combat with the knight. I knew right away the moment we first bumped into each other. However, during the battle, Hyeon-jun kept getting bitten, and now he got off the road and entered a forest full of trees.

There is one thing Hyeon-jun learned while teaching Gunther Mercenary Corps and La Hansen.

Ordinary humans cannot move three-dimensionally. The forest is a battlefield for him.
