Master Swordsman Genius Handmaid - Master Swordsman Genius Handmaid chapter 89

89 – 23. Advent (1)

According to Etria’s order, the Fiore side’s siege was gradually completed.

Take advantage of the gap where the front is still firmly holding on and push in from the rear.

If that happens, the demons will be stabbed with spears from all sides and die painfully.

In preparation for an emergency, the reserve units have not yet been fully operational.

I’m not stupid enough to let my guard down in this situation.

Don’t be in a hurry, everything should be done perfectly one by one.

The opponents were second-class Witchbeasts, whom even the Imperial Knights considered formidable.

Even the knights and soldiers of Fiore had met their worst enemies.

Etria thought so and examined the situation of the war even more thoroughly.

‘You’re telling me not to confront each other recklessly? I know. But, but this is a golden opportunity.’

She knows that Adele is not a conceited person or a slob.

He is aware that his advice will definitely benefit him.

However, wasn’t it originally said that combat is a place where instantaneous changes continue and are ever-changing.

If Adele had been here, she might have given another piece of advice.

As such, the current situation was completely leaning towards Fiore.

“… great. now! Give orders to all knights and soldiers except Bangjin to advance!”

“Yes, the head of the household!”

It’s a quick fix. If you procrastinate, this is at a disadvantage.

Long-term warfare is torture for the soldiers who prepared while sleeping at night.

Rather than receiving it, it should be penetrated as quickly and effectively as possible.

Etria trusted her judgment. And I believed in my family.

If his decision was wrong, either the leader of Karad or his vassals would have expressed their opinion.

However, don’t they also move, nodding their heads at their own judgment?

Nothing is wrong. Let’s not worry, let’s just focus on the battle.

“Wow!!”

The shouts of the soldiers grew louder, and conversely, the land occupied by the beasts decreased.

It was seen that the weight of victory was tilting moment by moment.

When the brilliant morning sun finally rises, Fiore will have a glorious victory!

Kwagwagwak!!-

However, that hope soon collapsed slowly with an ominous sound.

“Go, my lord! excuse me! excuse me!!”

At the place one of the vassals pointed out, the soldiers were being swept away by the Demonic Beasts.

Apparently, one of the formations could not hold out and collapsed.

Although it is difficult to prepare a camp and keep a position for defense.

More difficult than that is to attack while in formation.

Of course, in the midst of that, the formation had to be prepared to be scattered or pierced.

“Fill the reserve that has been waiting! Never be left out!”

There was no error in her judgment, and there was no sign of hesitation.

While maintaining a moderate sense of urgency and tension in a line that does not cause confusion.

He was giving the most appropriate command and predicting the next situation.

“My lord! Bo, report!”

“What is it?”

“This was just posted, but Captain Karad, who is in charge of the rear, is said to be a heavy talisman! The beasts are stronger than expected and the power is amazing… ah!”

The messenger in charge of the report let out a loud sigh.

Even before Captain Karad’s will was conveyed, the attack from the rear broke through again.

And that wasn’t all. Starting from the rear, all formations began to collapse.

It was as if the monsters were waiting for an attack from this side.

“Muh, what!”

Etria, who was looking at the battle situation with a bewildered look, bit her lip.

Even though blood flowed down her chin, she didn’t even pay attention to it.

‘No way, no way the monsters were aiming for that timing? You noticed the gap right at the transition from defense to offense? This, does this make sense?!’

It’s something I’ve never seen before.

How did the empire finally win over the endlessly pouring devils?

That’s different from the monsters, who were only attacking.

This is because the soldiers and knights of the Empire fought by using military tactics and twisting battles.

If, like now, after a delayed battle with defense, the monsters would sit down on their own.

It is most effective to switch to the offensive at that moment and wipe it out in one fell swoop.

No matter how strong the monsters are, no matter how high their stamina is.

As long as there is no melee, it is much more advantageous to have a formation.

In that way, the Empire fought for 20 years and eventually won.

Fiore also fought and won without breaking the mold.

There has never been a case where the monsters organized a counterattack like now.

“aaa!!”

“Sah, save me!!”

If you are in formation, your allies have a much better advantage.

However, on the contrary, if the formation is broken, ordinary soldiers cannot defeat the beast even if they die and wake up.

Even chivalry, which uses chakra and boasts overwhelming force, is halved in melee.

That’s true, but can ordinary soldiers survive in that melee?

Knock it!-

Etria gritted her teeth and tried to settle the battlefield somehow.

The square that was still in place at the front did not collapse.

In addition, the knights in the rear led by Captain Karad did not collapse.

In the current situation, the side is empty, so you can put in the reserve from the back.

If that doesn’t work, then the second line of defense will be pushed in.

‘You can’t back down! You have to push! If I get pushed, it’s over!’

Etria’s judgment was also correct.

If you turn your back and run away from the current situation, everyone will die.

Even if damage occurs, even if a colleague dies, you must keep your place.

If you restore the collapsed camp, you can fight again.

Wooo!!-

Big!!-

But this time, too, things did not go the way she had hoped.

Witchbeasts who thought they would attack allies by pouring in all directions.

However, they sent only some of them to the front and sides, and took the majority back.

Etria, who saw that, ah! and sighed.

Behind him is Captain Karad, who is reorganizing the knights.

For himself, the most powerful power that he must never lose.

If they were annihilated, it was clear that this battle would be lost unconditionally.

“Raise the flag! Knights Retreat! to retreat! hurry!!”

Etria gave an order in an urgent tone.

Immediately after that, the signal announcing the retreat of the Knights is raised high.

Etria wanted the knights to retreat even if they turned around after seeing this.

However, the Witchbeasts were much faster than that.

“Ahhh!!”

Losing speed while reorganizing was fatal.

The knights were swept away by the Witchbeasts before they had time to escape.

The number of monsters is far greater, and even the momentum is ferocious.

Since it was like this, no matter how proud they were of the Knights of Fiore, there was no answer.

“My lord! Lord! Avoid! Dangerous!”

“Where am I going! Knights and soldiers are still fighting!”

“The left and right wings have already completely collapsed! The center is holding on, but it won’t last long! It’s only a matter of time before the monsters invade the command center, so hurry!”

Despite the cries of the vassals, Etria held out saying that they could never go there.

It is today. Just today, he rose to the position of head of Fiore.

And on that very day, this battle took place, and the moment to flee came.

If you start in this way, you will never be able to return the prestige of the family head to the way it was before.

It’s to the point where I’d rather die fighting.

Yes, my father, the former head of the household, is still alive.

It’s a bit old, but if you’re lucky, you’ll get an heir.

That’s it. If you do that, there is no problem.

“Let go! I, I will die here! Where are you going to abandon my people!”

“My lord! You shouldn’t do this. Don’t you know! Why are they dying there! It’s for you, for the family head! For the family to get out safely! You’re fighting even to the death! Are you going to undo that?!”

“but!”

Before Etria’s shouts, screams echoed from the center.

I couldn’t stand it anymore and the front line was eventually broken through.

Wooo!!-

oh oh oh !!-

Kyaaa!!-

The 2nd grade monsters were stronger and more ferocious than I had imagined.

Every time their fingernails flash, a person breaks into pieces and scatters.

Its fangs are erected and its jaws shaken violently, causing flesh to tear and blood to splatter.

“My lord!!”

The vassals urgently stood in front of Etria and called her.

They are the ones who have sworn allegiance to Fiore, they are the ones who will give their lives for the family head.

I have no regrets even if I die here, but if I lose my family head, things will be different.

“but… .”

The witches are getting closer and closer.

If you keep going like this, you won’t even get a chance to escape.

I am at a loss as to what to do.

Between the pride as a family head and the duty to survive as a family head.

It was the moment when Etria was shedding tears of blood and was about to choose one side in the end.

“Didn’t I warn you?”

It’s so out of place with this terrible and urgent situation right now.

An extremely monotonous, low-pitched voice reached my ears.

“It’s good to accept. I told you not to face each other recklessly until the very end.”

The man handed over the horse he rode to the vassal next to him.

He even spoke to those who looked at him with blank eyes.

“You cannot save them all. It’s none of my business.”

“What… .”

“But you can kill them all. Because that is my job.”

After saying that, Adele slowly drew her sword.

In front of me, there are so many delightful prey.

I feel alive when I cut, tear, and cut them.

I have to fix those parts, but it’s not going to be easy.

“Take good care of those who run away. I hope you don’t get swept away needlessly.”
