The Immortal Genius Spearman (140)
“Fuck… …Fuck… …!”
Galberon, who lost sight of the Glory Knights, including Heinel, was left alone in the darkness, swearing.
How could the author, the first aura master of the Baroque Kingdom, turn his back so easily?
“How dare you… …tease me?”
Galberon suppressed his anger as he looked into the darkness where Heinel had disappeared.
But still… … .
“Phew.”
If there was one income.
‘I was quite nervous because it was Heinel Fremunt.’
I confirmed that there was absolutely no problem in pointing a sword at him.
Heinel Fremund.
Wasn’t his fame so great that it shook the continent?
However, as time passed and it weakened, it did not display the great power it once had.
Galberon soon let out a deep sigh and assumed a relaxed expression.
What you’ve already missed is what you’ve already missed.
“Next time I will definitely cut off that neck.”
I am sure that I will win the next fight.
“… …Lord Galberon, the main force is retreating.”
“They seem like people who are full of pride.”
The Empire is strong because it has Auror Masters like them.
And it is because of the strength of the soldiers who are training every day.
However, some foolish commanders sometimes mistakenly thought that their presence made the Empire strong.
“That’s why such absurd situations arise.”
Ultimately, the responsibility for defeat must lie with the commander.
“I’m going back.”
Although he eventually returned empty-handed, Galberon was looking forward to a reunion with Heinel, imagining the battle between them in his mind.
And at the same time.
“Whew, you backed off.”
There was a moment when Galberon, who kept chasing me, was quite burdensome, but in the end, it seemed like he gave up and went back.
Owain, the vice-captain of the Glory Knights who was running with Heinel, spoke to Heinel.
“Wouldn’t it have been better to kill him here?”
It was a chance to fight the Empire’s Auror Masters and other unhindered forces.
Although they may have been a tough opponent, they could have easily won.
“If we had captured him, the empire would no longer be able to wage wars of conquest against other kingdoms.”
Simply killing him would have been an opportunity to suppress the war on the continent.
Then Heinel looked at Owain and asked.
“How long has it been since you became the vice-captain of the Glory Knights?”
“It’s been five years.”
“It has already come to that. One, Sir Owain. Your opinion is good, but there is one thing you are overlooking.”
“… … What is it?”
Owain asked Heinel’s words.
What on earth did I overlook?
Heinel said to him.
“If we had killed Galberon as you say, the Empire would no longer be able to wage wars of conquest against the Continent. That is true. However… … if we were to be annihilated here, there would be no one left who could stop the Empire’s advance.”
“… … .”
For a moment, Owain’s eyes shook greatly.
That means.
“Are you saying that Heinel can win?”
“of course.”
Heinel answered without hesitation.
The outcome is unpredictable.
But we must also be able to predict the risks we will take when we want to kill our opponents.
“It doesn’t seem like this fight can be ended in a few short battles.”
It is an empire that has already bared its teeth against the continent.
Now, the entire continent is shaking with its ferocity.
“… … It seems like the long period of war will come again.”
Remembering that terrible time, Heinel could only sigh softly.
* * *
“You won?!”
It seems like surprising news keeps coming in lately.
Kiaren, who had jumped up from her seat, soon let out a sigh of relief and flopped back down on her seat.
Edman said with a faint smile at that sight.
“I think you can rest easy now. Everything seems to have gone well.”
Although he tried to smile as if he was relaxed, Edman was also quite nervous.
Suddenly, the Imperial Auror Masters attack the reinforcements, and the Imperial army descends on the Spanish Kingdom.
If Heinel had not intervened, the damage would have been catastrophic.
furthermore…….
“His performance seems to be greater than expected.”
“I heard the news anyway. If the jealous 2nd Division Commander said something like that, it must mean that his performance was amazing.”
Diorant, the 2nd Division Commander, gave Damian a very low evaluation.
He said that he almost put his men in danger with his arbitrary and dangerous thinking.
But apart from that, his hit-and-run tactics were extremely successful in trampling the enemy.
“Thanks to that, I was able to easily bring the atmosphere of the battlefield… … .”
Diorant reported that, in the end, it was necessary to hold Damien accountable for the process, not just the results.
However, Kiaren had been guarding the 6th Legion together with Diorant for quite some time.
So, knowing his disposition already, I knew very well what this report meant.
“It seems like it will go up endlessly. How high do you think it will go?”
“I don’t know about that. However, since he even killed the enemy commander in the process… … I think it’s safe to say that his skills are already on par with those of a knight commander.”
“… … A captain of an independent unit with skills on par with a captain-level knight.”
Basically, the difference in strength between a unit composed of knights and ordinary soldiers was bound to be enormous.
This is because most knights are capable of handling magical powers, and each of them is also skilled in advanced swordsmanship.
However, a unit comprised of ordinary soldiers has fighting power comparable to that of the Knights Templar.
“He always exceeds expectations.”
However, this incident may be the catalyst for a change in the Empire’s perspective on the battlefield.
‘That means the main force may be preparing to depart.’
The kingdom is probably preparing for it as well.
However, it will no longer be easy for them and the surrounding small kingdoms to block the empire with just their own strength.
Kiaren asked Edman.
“What are the movements of the Artian Kingdom?”
“I haven’t checked it out in detail yet, but I understand that they are also very sensitive to the Empire’s current movements.”
Since it was known that the Empire moved its troops by sea, the Artian Kingdom was not completely safe either.
He nodded to Kiarin.
“First of all… … I must meet with the Prime Minister. There are things I must gain from this fight.”
“I will prepare it right away.”
At Edman’s words, Kiaren stood up and began to put on his uniform.
* * *
The Kaion unit returned to Sraggan and was treated with great hospitality by Mateus.
“If there’s anything you need, just let me know. I’ll do my best to help you.”
“Thank you for your consideration.”
Damian looked at Mateus and bowed his head slightly.
It wasn’t just words, everything from herbs that could actually heal the troops to meals for the troops was provided by the Spanish Kingdom.
Damian walked over to where the injured soldiers were and checked the situation.
“How is everyone?”
“There aren’t many seriously injured people. However, there are quite a few lightly injured people… … Still, I think we’ll be fine after a few days of rest.”
“… … I see.”
Damien looked at the injured soldiers with a complicated expression.
It was something that had to be done, but didn’t his reckless plan end up hurting these guys anyway?
furthermore.
‘If we had been just a little bit later, everyone would have been killed.’
Although the operation was barely successful, the difference between success and failure was as thin as a sheet of paper.
But then.
“Why are you making that face?”
“……you?”
Damian couldn’t hide his surprise at the sight of Diana limping towards him.
I heard that you need to recuperate for at least a month, but you can already move like this?
Diana smirked at Damien’s expression and said.
“Are you worried a lot?”
“You call that talking? You idiot. You should be fighting while taking care of your body!”
“Hehehe, what can I do when my opponent is an Aura Master?”
Diana said, trembling. And.
“… … I will become stronger so that something like this doesn’t happen again.”
Damian let out a small sigh at the sight of Diana speaking with a serious expression.
Then he spoke to Diana with the same serious expression.
“I’m going to treat you badly when you get better, so just know that.”
“Hehehe, I’ll be looking forward to it.”
Diana said with a laugh.
Then he looked around and saw the injured soldiers, and said to Damian.
“Don’t think that this is the fault of the deputy commander. Rather, it is because of the deputy commander that we are able to do this and still have only this many injuries.”
“Hehe, that’s right.”
“It seems that what Captain Diana said is correct!”
The guys who were bandaging their wounds agreed with Diana’s words.
Everyone thought the same thing.
It is surprising that they, who are nothing more than ordinary soldiers, can perform such incredible feats.
“This is all possible because we have a deputy commander.”
Diana said sincerely.
That feeling of helplessness I felt when Damien was away.
I wanted to fill his empty spot, but my skills were too limited.
‘From now on… … I have to become stronger.’
When Diana woke up from the brink of death, that was the first thing she thought.
Just being helpless like this… … .
‘Once is enough.’
I will never suffer such humiliation again.
Even if the opponent is an Aura Master.
The corners of Damien’s mouth slightly rose at Diana’s gaze.
Because Damien knows that when the guy sets his mind to something, he really gets it done.
Then Damien lightly patted Diana’s shoulder.
“I will believe you.”
“yes.”
Okay, that’s enough.
Damien nodded at Diana’s answer and walked among the other unit members.
He encouraged the wounded and praised all his unit members.
“What we have achieved in this battlefield is simply outstanding, it is a completely different feeling from that.”
Didn’t we launch a preemptive strike against that gigantic imperial army and completely push them back?
“Even if the subject was the Spanish Kingdom, our activities will not disappear.”
Damien glanced at the soldiers in their seats and said.
“You must have been able to do this thanks to the hard training you endured. I’m proud of you.”
It might sound strange, but Damien said it to them with sincerity.
and…….
“From now on, we will rise higher and higher. Whether as Knights or Auror Masters of the Empire!”
We will go up higher and look down on them.
“From now on, all battlefields will be taken by our Kaion unit… …!”
Damien spoke as if he were making a pledge and declaring.
“Dominate.”
