Build a Human Empire by Creating Clans - Build a Human Empire by Creating Clans chapter 71

A long line of magical power blew out a line of enemies in front of him.

“This witch…!”

Two horsemen rushing from behind, taking advantage of her swinging hands.

There was little confidence in the look on the faces of the two that they had caught the gap.

The distance between her and them was very close.

He stabbed me in the heart before I even turned my back.

right!

However, she didn’t even look back.

Just raise your opposite hand and bump your thumb and middle finger.

Their bodies exploded at the same time as the sound of their fingers clashing.

Crispy!

Flesh and blood flowed in all directions.

“Damn it.”

She frowned and spat out a curse.

Because the torn flesh and blood splattered on her and soaked her body.

“Uhhhhh!”

The enemy hesitantly withdrew.

Thinking that he couldn’t dare to face the two families, Gerhard and Pasimea, he urgently opened his eyes to find another opponent.

But is a different family worse than the two of them?

Fu-wook!

From noble mtl dot com

“Ouch!”

Nuadil ran wild with his two-handed sword.

His appearance today was the opposite of usual.

It wasn’t a dagger that he preferred to use, but a large two-handed sword, and he jumped into the midst of the enemy with an explosion of presence, not the way he always hid his presence and turned his heart amidst the enemy’s carelessness.

“What monstrosity…!”

He plunged his sword deep into the cavalryman’s chest, raised it, and swung it with all his might.

The corpse of the cavalryman collided with another light cavalryman beside him, and the blade slashed the corpse, slashing the two troopers beside it, and came out.

“I’m more ignorant than you look.”

At the sight, Skadi stuck out her tongue.

Ordinary people would not have been able to lift that ignorant greatsword, and they would not have even dreamed of wielding a sword deeply embedded in their chest to take it out, or cutting off multiple opponents with that sword.

Kwakwang—!

However, the inaction of the three members of the family pales in comparison to her.

‘Calliope.’

She was overwhelming as always.

With one swing, everything there was destroyed.

If Gerhard killed dozens of knights with three or four swings, she cut many more with a single blade.

“Hey!”

Such was her unrestrained inaction.

An overwhelming force that prevents the fighting spirit itself from arising.

A power that prevents you from even counting numbers in order to win.

Only a different race could deal with her.

No one among humans dared to deal with her.

“Huh, to retreat!”

“monster! You freaking bastards!”

The left wing collapsed and those who fled appeared one after another.

And at this time, the audience who was far away moved.

“You’re finally out.”

Skadi narrowed her eyes.

A group that was originally in the vanguard of the enemy left wing cavalry.

However, from the moment the cavalry of both sides charged, the group of people who watched the battle between their own and the left wing fell to the left and right.

It was the three knights of the Church.

“Gather! The wolf cubs are coming!”

While slaughtering the left wing of the enemy, the followers were keeping an eye on the movements of the Knights.

As the knights began to move, Gerhard rode the horse in the lead.

The distance between his followers and the knights was far enough to attempt a charge, so they formed a triangle behind him and started the third charge.

“My father, Horvid!”

A hundred or so knights thumped their reins and called to God.

He must have aimed for a time when his family suffered damage or when fatigue accumulated.

There was no way that such a shallow ulterior motive would work for his family.

Rather, it seems to have abandoned the left wing meaninglessly.

“Slow down the sweet rain of grace on our faith!”

The whole body of the knight running towards his followers was illuminated.

Bright enough to dazzle your eyes even under the sun.

Light was power, and the level of the knight changed.

【Lv. 54]

Mixed races born between Horbid’s descendants and humans.

They, who are already like kings of individual nations, have become stronger.

It was a temporary strength due to divine protection, but the battle will end before the power within it disappears, so there should be enough time.

“Look!”

Also, one person in their robes.

Cardinal Roland of Germania.

He was indeed a cardinal.

– Horvid dwells within me!

A haze formed behind him.

The haze was proof that Horvid was staying by his side.

【Lv. 88]

The blessing he received was close to that of Archbishop Gottlov.

Because he was a person of high faith and talent enough to rise to the rank of cardinal.

He reproduced the power of a false god with his vessel purely without receiving the magical power of Horbid’s soul and thousands of souls.

Of course, that was also a very temporary phenomenon.

roar—

I saw his soul burn.

I had to consume the soul as a price because I tried to contain the power of a false god with my own ability without assistance such as Horvid’s soul jewel and thousands of souls.

He offered his soul as a sacrifice.

No matter how this fight ends, he will never remain in the world.

Wood Deuk!

Not to mention, even their appearance was different from those who had been protected before.

It wasn’t the shape of a wolf like Horbid’s offspring.

The snout did not protrude,

Sheep’s horns grew on his temples,

It tore off the back skin and spread the bat’s wings.

“Horvid is also finished.”

This was evidence of Horbid’s corruption.

Horvid was submissive to Tiamar, and it affected even the followers who received the wolf’s protection, appearing in a degenerate form.

– Behold the feat of God!

The power within is not of the god he believes in.

He became a monster in joy without knowing the truth.

thump, thump, thump!

The cardinal, who had turned into a monster and could no longer ride, ran with his feet shaking the ground.

“Long live the Emperor!”

“Look at the wolf’s fury!”

The clan and the knights collided.

The crash was different from the previous two.

Because the knights took the lead when it came to individual inaction.

As the two sides collided, many members of the group were pierced and torn apart.

A look similar to what the enemy left wing looked like in the first clash.

“Don’t stop, run!”

But his family was different from them.

Although the individual’s inaction was weak, the spirit was not weak.

“Many against one!”

“An enemy is weaker than a kinsman! Don’t be afraid!”

Even at the death of a colleague, he rushed without even a moment to flinch.

The knights of the Kingdom were certainly stronger than their followers, but they weren’t overwhelming enough to kill multiple followers in one blow, so if you catch one, there will definitely be a gap.

It was this gap that his followers were aiming for.

hooked!

“Ugh!”

The family member stabbed by the spear gnashed their teeth.

Looking at the spear that pierced my chest with wide-eyed eyes,

Kwak!

I grabbed the spear with all my might.

“This, Inom!”

The knight hurriedly pulled his arm, but the spear did not come off easily.

That became his gap, and his followers rushed in from all directions.

“Chehehehe!”

The ax cut the knight’s shoulder blades, the sword cut his neck, and the spear pierced his back, all of these attacks were made simultaneously.

Knights were no different from beasts being hunted.

“Back the wounded! The rest forward!”

This was the difference between the clan and the knights.

The clan had the connection and power to break the numerical inferiority, but the knights’ connection could not overcome the numerical inferiority, and the strength was not enough to deal with many.

– aaagh!

Is that all?

Among his followers, there were even those who overpowered the entire order of knights.

– Some kind of apostate!

At the time when the clan and the knights collided, Calliope cut off the arm wielded by the cardinal from the front with a single sword.

The severed arm bubbled and grew rapidly, but it was meaningless.

Like Archbishop Gottlov, there were no sacrifices to revive him again and again, and if there were any, there were plenty of opponents who could kill him again and again.

It was just an easy prey.

“There’s just a lot of chatter.”

Pasimea stretched out her right hand, squeezed it, and pulled it out.

Magical powers bound the cardinal’s body and knocked him down.

thud!

– This thing!

The cardinal struggled on the floor.

Like a fish caught in a net.

He fluttered in an attempt to shake off the mana.

“It’s pretty big for a fish.”

Nuadil rode on the cardinal’s back.

The sword held in reverse aimed at the cardinal’s neck.

– Clean it up! Do you know what you dare to do!

Nuadil did not answer.

He just sneered at his wrinkled face and twisted the corner of his mouth.

Fu-wook!

– Big… billion…!

The blade pierced the cardinal’s throat.

The cardinal reached back and tried to catch Nuadil.

The cardinal bit his outstretched hand, grabbed his neck, and let out a rough breath.

Foam bubbled up in the throat where the sword was stuck.

Horbid’s protection is to heal wounds.

Awesome!

But before the wound healed, Nuadil swung his arm.

A beat later, the cardinal’s neck snapped and he rolled on the floor.

The battle between my right wing and left wing was over.

Since the first clash, the Knights have only been pushed back by their followers.

When even the people who caught the cardinal joined the offensive, it became autumnal leaves.

“Get in line! This is the last charge!”

The family started the fourth charge.

Now they had only one opponent left.

“I hit the enemy center! For His Majesty the Emperor!”

“For Father!”

The center was playing a tight tug-of-war.

The Kingdom Army launched an offensive with superior numbers, but I instructed the central infantry to retreat while defending and not accept the offensive.

There was no change other than that the battle line had fallen back a few steps.

“Gather! We are joining you too!”

Here, the cavalry of the left wing also crushed the right wing of the enemy.

Because it was an enemy composed entirely of humans without the intervention of the religious powers.

The Knights of Sudret and the retinue led by Rachel crushed them.

And when they joined the right wing cavalry, their number was about 2,000.

“What, what…! Why are you enemies?”

“Where is our cavalry!”

“annihilation? Annihilation…?

Infantry in the front, cavalry in the rear.

What could the surrounded enemy central infantry do?

“surrender! surrender!”

A great army of 100,000 surrendered to nearly half of the enemy.

Citizens watched the battle from the top of the castle wall as if watching a festival.

They screamed and hurriedly locked the gate.

Kwakwang—! bang! bang!

However, when 20 cannons hit the wall, the gate was quickly opened.

In the first place, he probably didn’t even have a plan for a do-or-die fight.

It would have been nothing more than a panic and locking the castle gate.

Given more fear, they had no choice but to open the gates.

“Bring the prisoners.”

Christian, King of Germania, was dragged tied to a rope.

“To lead.”

He passed through the gate with a deep bow of humiliation on his face.

My family and I followed him to the palace.

throne

###

The city was silent.

Like being in a silent monastery.

A silence fell over the city that killed even the sound of breathing.

“…”

I rode my horse and slowly walked down the central road of the city.

Behind them were the retinue, conscripts, and Sudret’s army.

As the one who conquered Germania, the victory ceremony was held.

It was quiet despite the sound of countless soldiers’ footsteps.

gulp···

To the point where you could hear the crowd swallowing saliva between the footsteps.

The crowd in Orhus remained silent and looked at me with quivering eyes.

“Hick…!”

I scanned the crowd’s eyes.

Lined up on both sides of the road, crouching on the roof of a building, hiding between closed windows, and so on… all kinds of places and ways to look at me.

There was only one emotion in that gaze.

“Everyone seems afraid.”

According to Skadi’s whisper.

The citizens of Orhus were afraid of me.

I am afraid that Edar will punish them.

Citizens looked at me with fear.

“My father is a conqueror. You can do anything. Isn’t that always the fate of a conquered city?”

Rachel looked at the crowd with a sneer.

In her eyes, Orhus is a criminal who betrayed his own people.

I withdrew my gaze from the crowd and saw the front of the procession.

tumble, tumble…

The faint sound of footsteps.

A man in fancy clothes walked alone.

He was tied to a rope, his head bowed deeply.

I couldn’t see his expression, but he must be full of humiliation.

Christian, King of Germania.

Because that was the sinner’s name.

“My king…”

Sobs leaked from the crowd.

A few soldiers frowned and hid at the sight of them, but soon weeping broke out in all directions.

“Idiots.”

Pasimea touched her ear and fired at him.

The reactions of the other members of the family were not much different from hers.

“Leave it. It is not something that can be prevented.”

Just as Duke Sudret was regarded as the leader by Kiruna’s citizens.

The citizens of Orhus regarded Christian as the city’s leader.

From the figure of the leader walking on the open road as a criminal, he felt that Orhus could no longer have the same glory as before, and that the citizens of Orhus also lost their glory.

“Crying because the glory gained by selling my own people is gone.”

Gerhard sighed and shook his head.

“There must be a lot to fix, Your Majesty.”

“okay. This is just the beginning.”

I twisted the corner of my mouth and looked at the palace.

At the end of the road, I saw the front gate of the palace wide open.

And several traces scattered around the front door.

“There must be someone who went before us.”

Nuadil chuckled and burst into laughter.

From the front gate of the palace to the audience room, it was a mess.

It was messy, as if an earthquake had happened.

Fallen flags, broken pottery, peeling gold leaf.

What does that mean?

A thief swept it away.
