042. Unexpected Encounter (3)

His eyes sparkled and he focused his remaining sword and struck the area.

-Swoosh, clang!

The lock came off with a heavy sound. Icarone had no time to rejoice and kicked the door open. The inside was dazzling. Instead of the same weapons lined up like in the first armory, he saw flashy weapons placed in a glass display case. And in a corner. He found Harin’s coat hanging on something that looked like a large hanger, and Guido and Ray standing underneath it.

I immediately threw away the sword I had and grabbed my coat and two swords. I wanted to grab a better sword than Ray, but even after looking around, there were no swords that looked better than Ray, even if they were similar in quality. I quickly left that place and ran to the window at the end of the hallway on the other side. My heart became even more anxious as I heard the footsteps of those in heavy armor getting closer.

Just as he was about to break the window and go out, he heard a faint sound in his ear.

-Meow!

-thud!

As soon as Ikarone heard that sound, he kicked the floor and turned around. This squeaky sound was definitely Gudongi’s cry. Even if it wasn’t, if you hear a cat’s sound in this place, you should definitely check it out. Ikarone ran up the stairs to the third floor. Since he heard it near the window, it was a room at the end of the upper floor. When he got to the third floor, he saw four knights guarding the door at the end without leaving their seats even in this situation.

‘Four knights?’

Knights, who are high-level personnel, are not usually placed as sentries. However, since four of them were mobilized and did not go out even when the alarm was sounded, it was clear that there were important people there. Icarone ran straight at them without slowing down.

“It’s the Black Prince!”

“Hey, up to here…….”

I have no intention of listening to them. Icarone stretched out his ray towards the neck of the knight in front.

-Sreung.

‘Block it?’

The sword that had been blocked for a long time smoothly slid through the opponent’s sword blade and pierced his neck. I don’t know if the knight’s skill was outstanding or if my strength was exhausted and the sword was slow, but this result just now made me lose my composure even more. They were also able to react to my sword at the speed. I pulled out the ray stuck in the knight’s neck and swung the sword in my left hand at another knight.

-Thump!

It was no coincidence. Guido, who had swung his sword aiming for the gap in the breastplate, was completely blocked by the knight’s sword. There are four knights of this level of skill guarding him. I can only wonder what kind of person is inside. However, whether it is pointed out for a second or not, it is only a matter of time.

Icarone just threw the corpse of the knight, whose throat had been pierced, at them.

“Uh huh.”

A knight awkwardly took his body. The clumsy knights steeped in chivalry are not cool enough to cut down the corpse of their comrade. In that sense, the knight’s corpse is a good bait. Something cold stabbed the heart of the knight who had lost both his hands and vision.

“Sigh…….”

The knight, who had been skewered along with the corpse, fell down. Icarone pushed the corpse’s back with his foot and turned around, drawing his sword.

-visor!

The sword of another knight aiming for his back met with a spark. When Icarone suddenly released the strength from his sword, the knight’s body was dragged down. At that moment, a dark sword was pierced into the knight’s heart.

“Hey!”

-Ts …

Icarone’s sword collided with the knight’s sword, slashing vertically, and rolled down his blade, spinning cleverly at the tip.

-Whoaaah!

Blood spurted from the knight’s neck like a fountain, wetting the hallway.

“Ugh…….”

He kicked the door open without even having time to confirm death.

-bang!

At that moment, a black object quickly rushed towards Icarone’s face.

-Ouch!

“Gudong-ah!”

I almost got stabbed. At that moment, I found the pure white belly and threw away the two swords and hugged it. Gudong, who I thought was dead… … . Icarone’s heart, which had been left with only emptiness, melted like snow. Gudong was also glad to see Icarone, who he hadn’t seen in a long time, and kept meowing and licking his hand with his rough tongue.

Then, a familiar voice was heard.

“Hey, Icarone!”

She was dressed in pure white clothing that seemed to be spotless, and had a face as pure and beautiful as a goddess. It was Ierie, the lord of Byren. Her eyes were moist as if she would shed tears at any moment, and she ran to Icarone and hugged him.

“Ugh! Heuk…… You’re alive. Because of me, Byren…… Raven…… Heuk!”

Icarone didn’t know what to do as she watched Ierie shedding tears while holding her. Ierie, who was treated with open arms no matter where she was, could find a place and live comfortably here in the Kingdom of Cloud, so she didn’t think of saving her. If she was with him, the path of suffering would only continue. As she pondered over how to say it, she noticed a thick iron bracelet hanging from Ierie’s wrist that didn’t match her.

“What is this?”

Ierie continued, sobbing as Icarone grabbed her hand and pointed.

“This, this is a bracelet that interferes with mana manipulation. It doesn’t even get scratched unless you do something really bad…….”

Looking at the scars here and there on her wrists, visible through the bracelets, I could tell how desperately she had tried to get it out.

Just then, a sharp shout was heard from the hallway.

“Over there! That’s the room!”

Icarone came to her senses at the sound of that voice. Yes. Right now, there is no time to feel the emotion of a reunion. Regardless of what the future holds, she must first escape. Icarone handed Gudo to Ierie and hugged her.

“Whoa.”

“Hold on tight.”

As soon as he said that, he put strength into his legs and ran. His target was the window at the end of the hallway. He could hear the voices of those who had just come up to the third floor.

“Ah! Lady Ierie!”

“The Black Prince has kidnapped Lady Ierie!”

“Catch him quickly!”

Kidnapping? Those guys who had locked me up and even put me in a strange bracelet… … As soon as Icarone reached the window, he immediately jumped out.

-Wow!

Icarone’s body, holding Ierie, floated into the air. Since it was originally a high area, the difference between the ground and the ground seemed to be 20 meters. It was a huge height. If she was in good health and alone, she would have landed without any impact, but what about now?

While I was thinking, a clear voice tickled my ear.

“Fly.”

-Phew.

As soon as Ierie finished speaking, her body suddenly became lighter. When Ikarone looked at her with surprised eyes, she winked one eye and continued speaking.

“It’s not that it can’t be used at all, it’s just that the effect is minimal.”

-Koosh!

As she said, it was only a little lighter, so the landing sound was loud. But that was enough. Icarone, who was not shocked at all, jumped onto the next roof without slowing down. With the fly effect, she jumped over 15 meters in one go.

It was a good thing that I escaped with Ierie. I couldn’t shoot arrows because I was afraid that her body would be damaged. The knights just looked on like dogs chasing chickens.

“Is that a person…….”

“How can I chase after a guy like that….”

As Icarone got away from the enemy’s pursuit, he found peace in his heart. Only then did Ierie, who had been hugging his neck tightly and burying her head in his chest, raise her head slightly.

“Phew… But where are you going?”

Icarone paused for a moment, perhaps taken aback by her words, then answered.

“First of all, as far away as possible… huh?”

As Icarone looked at the ground, searching for a roof to step on next, he saw a building engulfed in flames.

But that place was… … Reina’s general store. Icarone stopped walking right away. The cause of the fire there was most likely because of him. He had just received help and left, but his pride would not allow him to cause trouble to them.

Icarone placed Ierie under the eaves where she was not easily seen and spoke with a solemn expression.

“Wait here…….”

“what……?”

Without even listening to Ieri’s questioning words, he immediately turned around.

Time is of the essence. Icarone pulled out Ray and ran at full speed.

‘How dare you… … .’

Even when I thought about it myself, I felt strangely angry. I couldn’t understand why someone would attack someone else to get me. If she was harmed… … I would erase the Kingdom of Creed from history.

First, I eliminate the man in front of me, who is wearing a black robe that covers his head. Icarone rushes in like a wolf and pierces his neck.

-Phuk!

He closed his eyes without even realizing why he was dying until the moment of his death. Icarone drew his sword and looked around the room with sharp eyes. There were about fifteen people wearing robes like Izawa. Ten of them were wearing black masks covering their faces and holding short daggers in both hands while wearing tight-fitting black clothing. Even at a glance, you could tell that they were a group of assassins.

Icarone gritted his teeth and rushed forward again. No, he tried to rush forward. At that moment, something shot out from inside the general store that had been engulfed in flames.

-Koosh!

Just two feet touched the ground, but there was an impact that shook the inside of the room. The one who appeared with such an enormous presence was Yiel, holding the sagging Reina with one hand. Her silver hair, which had been neatly tied, was untied and fluttering in the wind.

After a moment of silence with her head bowed and her face hidden by her hair, Yiel carefully placed Reina on the floor and hummed softly.

“I’ll tear it all up… everything!”

At the end, her red eyes, as if screaming, glowed even brighter and she rushed at them.

* * *

There was no mercy in the madness of Iel’s sword. It cut down anything it could get its hands on, whether it was an arm, a leg, or a neck. They were astonished at the sight of Iel separating the assassins at lightning speed.

“What, what is it!”

“It’s different from the information!”

“Wow, your assistant was a silver-haired witch… ugh!”

As Iel moved, Icarone also moved. Those who were wearing robes without weapons tried to take something out of their pockets, but Icarone’s sword pierced their foreheads. They were caught in a state of confusion and fear, and were quickly being cleaned up without being able to attack properly.

However, Yiel’s combat was a bit unusual. Instead of always aiming for a critical hit, she would cut an easy-to-hit spot and then immediately run to someone else. In that case, there would be a risk that an enemy who received only minor wounds would run to her again…

But the doubt was quickly resolved.

‘That dagger… … .’

From where the dagger passed, thick black smoke rose up and connected with the dagger. No, it would be more appropriate to say that the dagger sucked it up. The enemy who was writhing in pain soon lost his life and collapsed. In the center of all that black smoke, Iel’s eyes flickered and she looked like a witch, looking for her next victim.

-Phuk!

Icarone pierced the heart of the last assassin. It didn’t even take five minutes for the two of them to stir. As he put his sword away and approached Reina, he felt an incredible murderous aura behind him. Icarone turned around hurriedly and raised his sword.

-Chae-Ang!

It was a shock that made my wrists tingle. However, it was an even greater shock to Icarone. The one who swung the sword from behind was none other than Iel.

“This…El?”
