73 – Revenge (5)
Tap-dag-dag-dak-
The battlefield was chaotic.
A bloody battle was going on in the valley that came down from the ridge.
Since they were on the border of each other’s camps, they could not make hasty wide-area attacks, and the inevitable hand-to-hand combat was taking place.
Among them is Lia’s father and the first knight commander. Director Mernis was also there.
He was leading his troops slightly behind the lines.
-Quaaagh! Kyaaa!
Wow. puck. Kang. Kagak.
All kinds of explosions and metal clashing sounds. The screams of knights screaming for their lives filled the battlefield.
A space closer to death than life. For some reason, I didn’t feel anxious at all in this chaos.
“… “
As he gallops on his horse, he turns his head and looks at Lia, as if time has slowed down.
Lia was guarding the first prince, looking down from a slightly high point on the ridge.
It seemed like they couldn’t find me. I turned away from her and sprinted towards Captain Mernis’ battlefield.
Sigh-
He decapitated his knights without hesitation.
The troops located in the rear were mostly troops for long-distance attacks, such as commanders and archers.
Since Commander Mernis was leading from the rear, there were not many troops to organize.
I easily cut off their heads and rushed at Leader Mernis.
Kaang-
“What are you doing!”
He took my attack without panic, as he had survived as a knight for a long time.
The surrounding gaze was not very focused.
Since everyone was fighting for their lives, there would have been no time to look back.
“Long time no see… “Would you understand?”
“what… Are you the enemy? “You’re using a cowardly move!”
“They are not the enemy. The King of Helia… “I am an escort driver.”
“what… ? That voice couldn’t be… “
Kaak-kaak-!
As we continued to clash our swords, he seemed to hear my voice and recognize my identity.
“Clearly Lia’s motivation… Beryl. Yes Beryl! What are you doing! “Return immediately!”
“I have already killed many of my allies, but will I be able to return?”
I increase the speed of swinging my sword and rush at him.
He also showed that he blocked all of my attacks because his skills were not ordinary.
However, perhaps due to age, I was gradually falling behind.
“My name is Ben. Ben Harun Leonor. “We met a long time ago.”
“Leonor… ?”
“Ten years ago. It was you. “The person who took my entire family away right before my eyes.”
“what… Are you making noise? Apparently, all the royal family of Regius at that time… ”
“I was alive. With the help of Sir Gerg. And thanks to you, we can meet again.”
Kang- Kang-
I struck down his slashes twice with great force, causing his grip to loosen.
He almost lost the sword, but somehow managed to grab it again. After all, it wasn’t an ordinary skill.
But that also didn’t mean that he would be my opponent.
“There is no need to talk at length. Just like you did that day. “We will send it to you in an instant.”
“Stop talking nonsense! What on earth are you doing… !”
“okay. “Without even knowing it.”
Kaang!
He strikes his long sword hard as if he was intentionally hitting his opponent’s sword.
It was a pretty big move, but he doesn’t have the energy to fight back. Because he too suffered great damage.
I caught sight of Lia running from a distance.
It was the right timing.
Since I couldn’t waste any more time, I swung my sword out without hesitation.
Phuuk-
“Gagging—”
Push shoo shoo-
My sword, given to me by Pythos, forcibly pierced the heart of Captain Mernis.
As soon as it pierced his heart, I pulled out my sword again, and blood poured out from his heart like a fountain.
From noble mtl dot com
I swung my sword again and blocked Lia’s attack.
The blood gushing from Captain Mernis’ heart soaked Lia’s armor.
“Ah, father-”
I didn’t necessarily take advantage of Lia’s weakness and attack her again. Because I had no intention of killing her in the first place.
Before she could escape the shock of my counterattack, Director Mernis fell from the horse, clutching his heart.
“Are you feeling okay, Lia?”
“uh… ?”
The moment she tried to take care of her father, I spoke to her sarcastically.
When she heard my voice, her body instantly froze.
The gaze and body direction that was meant to be directed at Director Mernis slowly turned towards me.
“I didn’t want you to go to war. Even for children… “It won’t be good.”
“W-what… how… ”
I slowly took off my helmet.
Even if your hair color changed, she wouldn’t recognize you.
“hemp cloth… reel… … ?”
“… okay. It’s me, Leah. “The man who killed your father.”
“what… What on earth have you done! “What’s with that head!”
“This is my original hair color. “The color of the Regius royal family.”
“Regius… ?”
Lia’s reaction was also the same.
Of course it is. No one would have thought that the name of a kingdom that was destroyed a dozen years ago during a war with the empire would come up.
That doesn’t mean I’m wrong.
Because I, too, should have lost everything back then, without knowing anything.
They were just experiencing the same thing.
“I asked you if you loved Yuuna. When we first joined the Guard Knights. okay. I used to love you. “Because she and I were engaged.”
“what… ?”
“But as you know, Helia betrayed Regius. And you would have thought all the royals were dead, but I survived. And I got stronger, and came back here and became a knight of Helia and Yuuna. “It was all my fault that led to war with the empire.”
“W-what do you mean, Beryl… Stop with that nonsense… stop… stop… … ”
She looked at me with despairing eyes, and it was only when she saw her father lying on the floor that she regained her gaze.
Although this may be hard to believe, it was a reality that his father was dead.
And she saw me stab her father.
Just like me that day.
“I was planning on destroying Helia from the beginning. Your father cut off the heads of my father, mother, and younger siblings right before my eyes. “He killed my entire family before my eyes.”
“… … ”
Lia couldn’t say anything.
There was no thought of attacking me, no thought of picking up my father’s body, or clearing up the battlefield.
Of course, it will take a lot of time to accept this reality. I, who until yesterday was my closest comrade in arms, had changed so suddenly that I couldn’t even accept it.
“It was all planned. The reason Yuna can’t use magic now, the reason I killed your father, and the reason I betrayed Helya and started a war with the empire. “Just like you betrayed Regius back then.”
“No words… Can not be done… How could something like that happen…? ”
“It wouldn’t make sense. If only a prince from a ruined country like me did something like this. Even if it were me, you wouldn’t believe it. But, do you know that?”
“ah… ?”
“The child in your stomach right now. “That’s my child.”
“ah… ? what… ?”
Lia’s expression became even more distorted.
It was an expression filled with so many terrible emotions that I didn’t think one person could contain.
The expression was like that of a character in an artist’s despairing painting. The expression she unconsciously made at that time looked so terrible.
“Who else could install such devices in your room without your knowledge? Who else can overcome you with technology? I did it all. “To get revenge on you and that man.”
“lie… It’s a lie… Then that man… ”
“okay. I raped you twice and made you have a child. We had a good time. yes?”
“Stop talking nonsense, Beryl!”
Kaan-
She swung her sword in anger, but I easily struck it down.
In the first place, just being on a horse like that would be her limit.
There was nothing stopping the attack from a pregnant woman with a very full stomach.
“Uh, how could that…?” I believed it… A colleague… I think of them as comrades… I believed it… ”
“… I believed it too. “You guys.”
“Humans… How could you be so cruel… So you’re saying it was all an act? “I mean, did you act in front of me?”
“… okay. “It was all an act.”
That might have been a lie.
She may have been the only person I respected.
Because she was a comrade in arms and a respectable knight. But even so, the fact that Helia was a person did not change, and what her father did could not be erased.
But it was already too late to say that.
After all, she was just an enemy. now.
“Beryl-!!”
Filled with anger, she swings her sword.
Seriously, trying to kill me. Maybe it was just my emotions taking over.
“… Your body will be heavy, so go back. “You have to think about your child too.”
“Ugh… ! Stop. Stop Beryl!!!”
I pushed her away and turned the reins.
I had no intention or desire to kill her. Maybe because she was the only one who made me feel guilty.
-Beryl!!!
I heard her scream, but I didn’t turn around.
For a moment, life in the Knights passed by.
She was with me at every moment.
Was I at least sincere towards her? Did he truly feel that she was a comrade in arms?
“… no.”
… It didn’t matter anymore. And it was an unnecessary thought.
I muttered to myself and rode toward the empire’s camp.
