Grave Keeper of the Fallen Kingdom - Grave Keeper of the Fallen Kingdom chapter 100
“What do you mean? Can you break through the walls?”
When Alan asked in a panicked voice, he finally looked at Alan and wrinkled his face.
“The monsters of the Black Land have come.”
“No matter what, the castle wall was breached?”
This time, Olive asked as if she didn’t understand.
“It came as a surprise attack in the night. The head count is estimated to be around 10,000. Among them, there are only five named-level monsters and over twenty commander-level monsters.”
“What, what? Five names… say?”
Olive was confused whether the number she was hearing was correct.
10,000 objects of corps-level size. On top of that, twenty commander-level monsters and five bosses… … .
It was an unbelievable number.
“If only Sir Ren had… … .”
The soldier looked at Alan with a resentful expression.
Alan couldn’t help but scold him when he saw that expression.
“How long will it take to run to the castle from here?”
“Half a day… , No, if you ride this guy and run at full speed, you can get there in 3 hours.”
“egg plant.”
“for a moment. wren… … .”
Alan grabbed Len’s arm, but he took it and shook his head.
Realizing that Ren’s intentions were firm, he relaxed the hand he was holding.
“I will go first. Come slowly.”
“I’m steering-.”
“You don’t have to. If we ride together, won’t this guy get tired too?”
Ren skilfully climbed on White Rang’s back.
Among the warriors in the north, only a small percentage of the warriors tame and ride the white wolf, but even though Ren was riding for the first time, he grabbed the fur of the white wolf very skillfully and ran.
– run! If I don’t run now, I’ll pluck all my hair and bake it.
– You’re such a cruel human being that even such a father and mother can’t deal with!
– It seems you don’t want to see your father’s face.
– Goes! But it’s kind of hard!
– Then will you make it hard forever?
– … … hold tight!
Baekrang started running like crazy.
The distraught soldier regained his senses at the sight of Ren quickly disappearing through the mist.
“I have to go to Proviant to break the news, so I’ll go first.”
“Will you be okay with that body?”
“… … it’s okay.”
After Alan and Olive handed him some food and water, he ran in the direction Ren had disappeared.
‘I don’t know if this is right.’
Allan wanted to turn around and return to Proviant to be safe, but Ren had gone to the north, so he had no choice but to head there.
“Prince, the passing away… … .”
“done.”
The escort knight stopped him, but Alan’s decision was already firm.
* * *
As I ran like crazy to the point where I was out of breath, I saw the northern southern gate.
It looked as quiet as usual, as the area beyond the high-rise walls was invisible because of the pouring snow, but the small shouts from inside informed us that this was not the case at all.
“let’s go!”
“Kleuraaa!”
The back door of the castle wall opened.
It was opened by a soldier who recognized me.
“Sir Ren!”
“How is the situation inside?”
“The knights and soldiers are blocking the gate as much as possible, but some monsters have invaded the inside of the fortress.”
“Are you named?”
“yes. Named two guys came in. Butcher and Swordmaster.”
Both of them are the ones who only saw the documents. This will be the first time I actually see it.
No, it should be the first and the last.
“Do you know where it is?”
“I don’t know.”
I went right inside with the words that I know.
The panting White Rang continued to grumble, but I ignored it and climbed to the highest point of the surrounding buildings to inspect the inside of the fort.
Shouts and screams echoed from all directions.
It was truly a big fight, a mess.
“It’s serious, but it wasn’t that serious.”
The northern gate was visible in the distance.
It was blocked by something and stopped with its legs half raised. The monsters crossed over and entered the gate, but the Amaranth Knights waiting inside were slaughtering them.
As they turned their heads, citizens gathered to the east under the guidance of the soldiers.
It seemed to be to reduce the number of victims as much as possible in preparation for an unexpected situation, but a figure was rapidly approaching that direction.
“… … slaughterer?”
Densely studded hard scales, thick limbs, and sharp claws.
That monster whose vertically slit pupils flashed was clearly a butcher.
‘this.’
A butcher with a distraught expression, as if half insane, is running with his arms stretched out.
I also quickly followed him.
* * *
The Amaranth Knights completely slaughtered the monsters pouring in through the cracks.
There weren’t many monsters that could deal with the Amaranth Knights on the narrow road except for named monsters.
Although the real ones are still hiding behind the scenes.
“Looks like we can fix the pulley soon!”
It was a pleasant sound to hear.
It was impossible to open and close the castle gate because the pulley was broken at once due to the archery technique close to the magic of the shadow archer, but it was finally possible to close the bridge after closing.
“ha… … . at las.”
“I’m crazy. Do it quickly!”
The Amaranth Knights hoped that the gates would close as soon as possible.
It’s already been half a day, and I’ve been stuck in the castle gate and killed the monsters.
“Ah, butcher!”
“what? Power dustproof! Get into defensive stance!”
The timing of the butcher’s jump was very art. He had already lost his strength, and he came in just at the right time when he needed to recover from slashing monsters with high defense.
If I tried to forcefully stop him like this, the ranks would collapse altogether and an irreversible situation would arise.
Arthur, who was leading the members at the head of the Knights, quickly made up his mind.
“Let it in!”
The members twisted their bodies at once to clear the road.
The Butcher entered the citadel with only a shallow sword wound.
‘Rather good. The commander inside the butcher is-.’
“It’s a big deal! A sword demon!”
At that time, a soldier inside shouted.
Arthur looked at her with a puzzled face. A sticky liquid that drips from under the castle walls.
A green slime descended beside the butcher, twisting the slime and transforming into a human form.
“Damn it!”
The most dangerous monster of the Black Land, the Sword Demon, has appeared.
A soldier fell from the top of the wall, his face and clothes half melted.
At the same time, the sword that spun around and landed on the slime’s shoulder.
The slime grinned and took out a sword.
And then it disappeared inside.
The Butcher fled to the other side of the Blademaster.
“Guard the wall.”
Arthur headed behind the knights.
Belatedly, Ralph, who was on top of the castle wall, came down the stairs.
“I’ll follow you too!”
“Never fight. If you think he’s there, you must signal and get out. got it?”
“of course.”
“If you fall into danger, you are not alone. Be mindful.”
“then!”
Ralph shouted as if not to worry and ran with the soldiers in the direction the Sword Demon ran.
‘Where the butcher ran, the commander is there.’
Commander, I’m sure you can catch the Butcher. The slime Sword Demon was difficult to catch the moment it was missed, and there was a high probability that the damage would be greater than expected.
‘Is the sword demon so good at using the sword?’
Arthur had also been living in the North for several years.
In the meantime, he only showed up from time to time, and finally faced the Sword Demon, who had never seen him use a sword properly.
‘I want to stick with you, but… … , It must be difficult.’
Among the current named monsters, the one known to have lived the longest is the Sword Demon Slime.
I had to buy time until the commander caught the butcher and came back.
Arthur ran after Ralph.
The direction the slime disappeared was west of the barracks and supply warehouse.
‘Where is it?’
I can see the soldiers moving busily, but no one seems to notice the existence of the sword demon.
Arthur first moved to the highest possible place. It was to notice immediately and move if there was a commotion in the vicinity.
‘Ralph?’
In the arsenal far away, Ralph and the soldiers were moving cautiously as if they had discovered something.
Upon closer inspection, the iron door of the armory and the blood that flowed outside showed signs of someone forcibly breaking in.
“no!”
It was so far away that no matter how much I shouted, I couldn’t hear it.
Arthur climbed down the iron pipe on the wall of the building.
‘That fool! I told you not to push yourself like that!’
I told you to call for support from as far away as possible if you see any traces of the Sword Demon.
I don’t know why that guy is doing that again.
He’s probably trying to save at least one more colleague who might be in the arsenal.
But saving is also something you have to do while looking at the situation.
“sh*t! van! knife! Bring oil and fire! Right Now!”
“yes!”
“If you have to, light it with the thought of burning down the entire arsenal!”
While running, Arthur asked the soldiers to kill the slime and ran like crazy.
Although they have never met directly, there are records of former warriors who dealt with slime in past documents.
Slime was very afraid of fire and hated it.
“Ralph!”
Ralph and the soldiers had already entered the armory.
Inside the dark armory, a slime in human form was clutching Ralph’s neck.
Ralph struggles in the air, but it’s pointless.
‘Am I using 4 swords?’
The records said that slimes like to use multiple swords.
In addition, considering that he was a huge fan of famous swords, it was understandable to some extent that he ran to the arsenal.
A monster with four arms attached to a human body.
A hand protrudes from the pit of the stomach and throws the Ralph he was holding onto Arthur.
“Kuk!”
“brother!”
After accepting Ralph, Arthur gritted his teeth.
It was because the slime was rushing in to pierce Ralph and Arthur with their swords.
Caan!!
The four swords dazzled Arthur.
After rolling on the ground, Ralph hurriedly crawled on the ground and headed towards the soldiers coughing up blood.
“Quickly take the living out!”
“Ah, I see!”
It was only a short workshop, but Arthur felt cold sweat flowing for the first time in a while.
It was the first time facing an opponent who uses four swords, so it was difficult to adapt.
If one sword is blocked, another sword will come flying, and if that is blocked, two swords will penetrate the gap.
“Keugh!”
cut the forearm
Blood splashed into the air.
“that… oh well… I see it.”
Slime opened his mouth awkwardly.
Arthur felt goose bumps for a moment.
“Gagging!”
This time the side was deeply cut.
Still, there was no time to escape.
No, I didn’t even think about leaving in the first place.
Fire-.
The arsenal began to heat up. I could see the slime’s bewilderment.
Black smoke billowed in and the walls began to burn.
“this… what… act… … .”
“Where are you going?”
Arthur clung to the retreating slime.
It was Arthur who was bleeding profusely, but it was the Sword Demon who was nervous.
“porridge… uh.”
The slime’s face turned into a demon.
It was a famous sword that humans possessed and he had to live first, so he intended to kill humans with all his might.
The bow was still sufficient. It took time for the flames to completely engulf this armory.
“Cheuk… … !”
Arthur’s whole body began to be ovulated by the slime’s sword.
Arms, legs, shoulders, chest… … .
Arthur, covered in blood all over his body, trembled and endured.
With a slime-sick face, he raised his sword to deliver the final blow.
bang!!
Someone broke the glass in the second floor window and came in.
It was a human riding on a white wolf.
“ha ha ha… … .”
“What, laugh… base?”
“You are done now.”
Arthur laughed and fell to the floor.
“Arthur!”
And in front of him, Len Argen landed.
“Is it you? Who made Arthur like this?”
