Tale of the Fake Hero - Chapter 242



Only Noblemtl

Season 3: Episode 50

“Are you ready? Laminea’s toys.”

Vinessa Alter Renault returned to her temporary command post exactly 14 days later.

It was the eve of the expedition to the Land of Destruction.

After finishing various tasks, Vinessa went to see Aydin, and decided to preside over Camilla’s test as well. Perhaps out of curiosity, the other five executives all came along.

“Sergeant Camilla, ready!”

“It’s a simple matter of words, but what’s it like in practice? Then show me. If you can block or dodge Mackennan’s dagger and catch Leone, you’ll pass. There’s no need to show how to break the lord. If that’s possible, breaking the lord won’t be a problem.”

It was surprising that Vinessa knew the test content well.

As I found out later, this test was actually designed by Vinessa to help Asher quickly adapt to his changed body after receiving the Dragon Spirit Stone.

He was a teacher who cared for and loved his students as much as any other paymaster.

‘Okay, let’s go.’

I now know for sure how important it is to build up your magical stamina.

Keeping the magic power running at all times.

It is possible to constantly use the enhancement of physical abilities, and that endurance is directly connected to explosive power… so-called explosive power.

“Oh my, that kid is following Leone pretty well… … .”

“Hmm, even while striking down Mackennan’s knives… … .”

“It doesn’t block everything, but it’s pretty good. It’s great at blocking attacks on vital points or areas that hinder running… … .”

Camilla thought as she chased Leone in a state of egoless concentration, not even hearing the commotion.

‘My body has changed.’

It’s not just that my limbs grew to the level of a seventeen-year-old due to primitive growth.

In just two weeks, I’ve acquired the flexibility and magical power to control a fully grown body in an instant!

I’m not even a top paychecker, and I’ve learned so much from my subordinates in two weeks.

‘Not just a pay querier, but even if I could stay with a top pay querier for a month? 3 weeks? No, even just 1 week, how much could I learn?’

If you see that, learn from it, and grow… … .

I can make the teacher happy.

I can surprise you, Master, by looking several times more mature than before.

‘So, I absolutely must pass this test. I must pass and follow in their footsteps. If there is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it is right now!’

Camilla cleverly moved behind Leone.

It was a way to put Leone between himself and McKennan, but it was a meaningless move for McKennan, who could control the trajectory of the dagger in the air.

When everyone was thinking that way, Camilla took flight.

“!”

“!”

“!”

He lands on the ceiling with both feet, kicking the ceiling hard as the daggers immediately chase after him, and lands on the outer wall.

On that orbit, place Leone.

As Camilla passes Leone for a moment, ten daggers, whose direction has been changed from vertical to diagonal, are aimed at Leone.

‘Hey, this kid is quite the talent!’

And again, he concentrated all of the magical energy he had maintained into an explosive force, striking the outer wall with a blast and causing a crack in it.

“Eee …

Charge at Leone with full force.

“—AAAAAAAAAAAHHH!”

In the blink of an eye, the whole situation was over. In that one moment, the defeat was decided.

Camilla rolled around on the floor.

Leone landed gracefully on Camilla’s back, and McKennon collected the flying knives.

“What happened?”

There were no questions that could be asked by someone so low-level.

All nine executives who observed the test were renowned experts, and they clearly followed the entire situation with their own eyes.

So, it was only natural.

Before Camilla could even raise her left hand while lying on the ground, before she could open it to show the hem of Leone’s shirt she had torn from his sleeve… … .

Starting with Asher, the executives are applauding and cheering one by one.

“Okay, that’s good! It’s been a while since I’ve felt this excited! It reminds me of when I learned martial arts from the master.”

Leone put both hands under Camilla’s armpits and lifted her up quickly.

When Leone turned to his colleagues, MacKennan and Phenyl, they both nodded as if they had no arguments.

Is this it? Is this it?

‘Pass?’

My heart was pounding like crazy.

At that moment, a loud heartbeat rang in my ears, enough to crush the silence that had filled the room.

Can you follow the lead of the pay querier? Can you watch from the side?

“How much of the Ten Characters did you learn from Laminea?”

“yes?”

“If you ask me that stupid question one more time, I’ll break your jaw. How much of your vegetarian diet have you learned?”

“It’s the 7th type! And the Jinnoryong!”

“Hmm, then it’s decided.”

Vinesa said.

He added as he turned around with his hand on the hilt of the sword of the Extreme Satellite, Renault.

“You may come with me on the expedition tomorrow. Ashir, I will assign that pet to your independent squad as I said before.”

Eshir clasped his hands together and cheered even louder than Camilla.

“Yes, Master!”

Shapelle, who had been leaning against the doorway with his head resting on the back of his neck and yawning, clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.

10 GLaDOS (4 star) wizards.

He covered his face with a bamboo hat, stood up with his feet on the ground with a staff, and scratched his beard. These are the symbols of the Osarius school.

“I don’t know why those poor guys didn’t give it their all like they did during Asher. Were they possessed or something? The battlefield isn’t a playground.”

Second Step, Accompanying the Leading Payquerier (5)

“The Fallen Zone was the land adjacent to and was the end of the southern border.”

The Fallen Zone, the ruins of an old reptilian kingdom.

Due to the curse and ideology of the Lizard Lord Neigalas, its scope has gradually expanded over time. It would be more correct to say that it is returning to its original state.

The wave of corruption was being halted by the flames left behind by the red flames of Akira.

“Eun-ui’s sage, Balbray, was the guardian of the fire. It was impossible for a guardian to be absent. In order to meet Balbray, I had to go and meet him.”

The problem arose when the southwestern area, which was the area of ??the yellow city , was covered in volcanic ash as it was eroded by the abyss.

“In a volcanic ash storm, all senses are blocked. Sight, smell, even hearing. It is a disaster that cannot be compared to a snow storm. Trying to overcome that storm is tantamount to suicide.”

strategy.

It is easy to understand if we look back at the operation that was a turning point in the history of the ‘Red Summer’ war.

At that time, the Supreme Commander of Humanity, Cheongseong Mirngardia, dispatched a vanguard led by Charillion, and used the power of the barrier stone to clear away the volcanic ash first.

“First Payquerier Vinessa Alter Renault will immediately proceed with a breakthrough into this ruined zone with 3,000 dragoons.”

It was a plan that even contemporary historians, not to mention modern ones, would say was crazy and impossible, but Vinessa carried it out.

‘Black Summer’ was mostly like that.

It was because there were warriors who turned operations that everyone said were impossible into possible that the era was able to endure until the appearance of the great hero Charillion.

“Naturally, Camilla Alter Aradmantel, who was temporarily assigned to the Blood Demon Corps, also participated in this ‘mad operation.’ Today, I will explain about this ‘Operation to Break Through the Fallen Zone,’ which was carried out over ten days from July 8 to July 18, 1671, and laid the foundation for humanity’s counterattack.”

“Wow! It’s cute? It’s not awkward at all, not at all!”

Asher nodded with a look of satisfaction.

“I didn’t know that our corps uniform would suit Camilla so well. Somehow, it feels more like Master Vinessa than me.”

Camilla hid her embarrassment and examined the fit of her uniform.

The background color of the Blood Horse Corps was black, in contrast to the white of the Red Lotus Corps. The color of the emblem was also red.

The Hongryeon Corps uniform was torn to pieces during the primitive process, but the Hancheol armor was somehow restored.

‘I’m glad I can add chains to the arms, which are shorter and have less width.’

This was no ordinary armor. It was a gift from Hannah Ludwig.

So I wanted to be stubborn.

I wanted to wear it until the end, unless it completely broke. With this armor, I could smell the everyday scent of Bellewin Mansion.

– Okay, Camilla.

Not only that. Ashir also improved the sword and brought it to me.

The iron of the blade was melted down and new iron was added to cast the sword of the swordsman to fit Camilla’s height.

I can’t thank you enough. I found out later that it was Vinessa who pushed for this.

“Have you learned horse riding?”

At that moment, Vinessa suddenly approached Camilla and she felt the shock of her heart breaking through her chest.

“I learned the basics during warrant officer training!”

He was startled, but immediately saluted and answered.

“It’ll be a good excuse for the first day, but you’ll have to get used to it somehow during the operation. Before you kick them out. You learn faster in actual combat. Ride this horse.”

Vinessa handed Camilla the reins of the steed she had brought. Aeshir whistled.

As can be seen from its red mane, it was a warhorse of the Solondian breed, considered the best of the best.

The Solondian breed ate little, ran far, was fast and strong, fearless and aggressive, and knew how to bite and maul their enemies. They were horses presented to royalty.

“Since I’m already at the level of a bug, I need to have good equipment.”

I don’t know why, but the thrill that had felt like fear since our first meeting… … was now turning into a thrill of awe.

Different from the teacher, but similar.

The Master leads people with a warm thrill, but Vinessa controls her subordinates with a majestic thrill. Yes, that is the very charisma of an emperor.

“This guy’s name is Jeokdol.”

“yes?”

“Is there a problem?”

What a red herring… … .

Isn’t that such a cute name… … .

I didn’t know that cold-blooded Vinessa had such a side to her. You really can’t judge a person by their appearance.

“No! Thank you! I will work hard with you!”

When I answered like that, I expected that the training of the Blood Demon Corps would not be easy, but the difficulty was far beyond my expectations.

“We’re now clearing the path to the ruined land. We won’t have time to collect the bodies of the dead. However, we will definitely take the living ones with us, no matter where they fall. Do you understand?”

“Yes, sir!”

“Aydin, take the lead. You’ve had a good two weeks of rest, right? Now it’s time to roll.”

“Please leave it to me.”

“Open the gates! It’s time to go on a campaign.”

As the gate opened majestically amid the sound of bells, the garrison musketeers lined up in the camp raised their guns and saluted.

“Good luck!”

“Good luck!”

The sound of horses’ hooves marching into a nightmare outside this world, swirling with volcanic ash…

Thump, thump, thump… … .

It seemed to grow louder and louder, resonating with the heartbeat, but then it began to move away and disperse as the ranks completely left the garrison.

“All troops, deploy in fish-shaped formation.”

* * *

The infinitely secretive and mysterious Necrons have entered history carrying with them the sandstorms of the Great Desert.

Sandstorm… … .

The abyssal form of Naigalas, the Lizard Lord, one of the .

“Great Priest, I have detected movement of humans towards Koldiraks (the Demons’ term for , meaning ‘unholy flame’).”

One of the seven major cities of the Republic, the yellow city was buried in the sand.

In the sand, the crackling sounds of primitive bones echo eerily.

The Necron necromancers gathered in places where the primitive people, who had been stripped of their consciousness and soul and became eternal slaves, could not enter.

“There is no sign of it entering the cursed area, so would it be right to leave it alone?”

The three highest ranking priests among the Necron necromancers are called Falk-Sha.

It was an original evil that had been terrorizing humanity since the reign of King Hyrkan, the first of the Lizard Lords.

When Chakalone, the ‘Yellow Scorpion’, one of the supreme Falkh-shas, ??waved his hand, the heavens and earth shook.

“!”

“!”

“!”

The necromancer who just spoke, no, the entire space the necromancer was in was crushed… … A transcendental size and weight.

Its form is that of a death dragon.

A being that once illuminated the world with the blessing of light, had become a puppet of evil, unable to die even after death.

Is such irreverence possible?

This would be impossible for regular Necron necromancers, but it would be different for Falk-Sha, who has been wielding evil since the Age of Origins.

“There is a reason why I just killed this guy. If you say something so ignorant as a piece of advice, you deserve to die.”

“… … !”

“That’s what reason is. There is a reason for every action. That is called cause and effect, and the great ones see through the past, present, and future of that cause and effect, so that is called the law of cause and effect.”

Vidacuz, the primitive man-eating scorpion that gave Chacalone the nickname ‘yellow scorpion’, roared while waving his six stingers.

Its extraordinary size and intimidation rivaled that of a dragon.

As Chacalone rose from Vidacuz’s back, the yellow rags that had wrapped around his body began to flutter violently in the sandstorm.

“Coldilax… … The path to the Wall of Fire is filled with his sand, but you go through it to get there? There must be a reason for you to do so.”

“That is true.”

“You must not leave him alone. You must kill him and offer his blood as a sacrifice to the Lord of the Sands.”

“I will do as you command.”

“I will finish the ‘ritual’ here. I will lend you 100,000 fusion entities and 800 ancient entities. That’s 30% of the city’s defense force. So, exterminate them all without leaving a single one behind.”
