124 – Knights Who Swallowed Monsters (8)
Those who have been engulfed by demonic energy are divided into three categories.
A person who strengthened his strength by accepting demonic energy, but could not cross the line for fear of losing his reason.
A person who strengthened his strength by accepting demonic energy, and became a beast whose reason flew away while pursuing even stronger power.
A person who received demonic energy and strengthened his power, crossed the line and reached the end.
“The 7 people here are the ones who didn’t cross the line. But that doesn’t mean they’re not to be looked down upon. Right now, when talent is scarce, it will be difficult for the demons to find better assault commanders than these guys.”
At the man’s words, Stauffen nodded. Standing in front of the field, he looked nervous and haggard, not like an appendix. The sunken cheeks and charred eyes conveyed the weight of the anguish he had felt during the night.
“Right.”
“You would have accepted Magi too, but you couldn’t cross the line.”
Stauffen turned his head at the man’s words. He said tapping his temples with his fingers.
“My organ is not strength. This is it. You can’t just try and end your life as a puppet.”
“I agree with that. Because I also had a lot of trouble when accepting Magi.”
Stauffen looked at the battlefield again. On the other side of the horizon, wooden fences and hideous spear blades were lined up. Their lively movements reacted sensitively to Stauffen’s gestures and gestures.
The spearmen, who held out their shields and lowered their bodies, were paying attention to every breath in preparation for the enemy’s charge that might come at any moment.
It wasn’t just Stauffen facing them. Knights wearing black armor and pale faces stood side by side, touching weapons.
the number is seven.
All of them were once famous knights, and now they were living as dogs of the demon castle with their old names erased. Stauffen scratched his head while looking at the majestic knights.
“If he had been alive, victory would have been ours on this battlefield. Too bad.”
“Who do you mean?”
Stauffen narrowed his brows and said.
“The commander leading the cavalry. don’t you remember He was the one who boasted that his cavalry could win even a siege.”
“Ah, I remember. I heard that you died in the last battle.”
Stauffen snorted.
“It’s not even a battle. It was swept away by hand and found dead. Isn’t it funny? A commander who was famous for being competent even among the demons drowned. Even if I had heard the prophecy, I would not have believed it. I must have realized it only after the water came in. It is destiny to die here.”
Stauffen fiddled with his sword. He didn’t have much experience wielding a sword in front of him. Because he was a man who always lived behind the scenes. Staufen saw the scabbard of the silver-haired man.
The handle of the sword, which had been used for a very long time, was also bluntly worn, and the pattern was faint.
“…I think fate is a very logical being.”
At Stauffen’s words, the man turned his head. Stauffen continued.
“Very logical. When a hunter who loses his weapon encounters a beast in the forest, he is bound to be eaten on the spot. Is it a coincidence that the hunter lost his weapon? No, it was because I had ignored the warning about bad weather the day before. Was it a coincidence that I met a beast? no. It was because the body of the hunter who was digging through the snow smelled of blood.”
Stauffen saw the defenses still standing strong. As if they were not afraid of a million troops, they erected wooden fences and shields like a breakwater, sharpened their spears and aimed at the enemy commander’s life line. Stauffen thought that each one of the soldiers was meeting his eyes.
“With 7 knights added to this position, we will not lose. They must have thought the barrier was strong, but it would face an unexpected ambush and collapse miserably. that’s fate Lazy defense and out-of-the-way troop deployment. Everything moves according to the logic of power, and the war will take on a new phase.”
said the man.
“Do you think that is logical?”
Stauffen showed his teeth and laughed. His mustache swayed in the wind, giving it a farce-like feel.
“I am not wrong.”
“It is not too late. If you tell me that you have noticed the ambush, I will respond.”
Stauffen hardened his face. Even at this moment on the battlefield, this man insisted on retreating like a coward. Stauffen didn’t like that expression.
Those blunt and stubborn expressions made by those who faced him.
That expression, firmly believing that he was right, drove him mad.
“All troops! Ready to attack!”
Stauffen turned around. One of the Templars said to the man.
“Don’t worry. who are we I will give you a blow and come back.”
The man didn’t respond to the knight’s words, and the knight looked ahead again with an embarrassed face and drew in his breath. Unlike his pale skin, his face was still playful.
“All ready to charge! Break their formation and annihilate the enemies! The templars are in the lead and break their square, and the cavalry rushes after them!”
The drums rang. Like a giant stomping, the hearts of everyone on the battlefield thumped.
The man took a deep breath while gripping the scabbard tightly, and Stauffen stood on the podium with a confident face and shouted. With a satisfied mouth open and wide eyes, he looked like a man full of self-confidence, but also like a coward trembling with anxiety.
The knights stepped forward. As if they were performing a ceremony, the knights stepped forward and drew their swords and took a posture. Stauffen murmured when he saw that everyone was taking the same posture.
“That’s imperial swordsmanship.”
The man right next to the podium nodded.
“Swordsmanship is nothing more than a platform for sharpening a sword. It’s better not to expect too much.”
Stauffen laughed. Because he didn’t expect too much. Even in the kingdom he belonged to, there was a swordsmanship passed down as a kingdom vision. Basic cutting and stabbing, as well as simple footwork and defense. No one understood why the simple swordsmanship was a vision.
“Vision is everything. If you say it’s a basic swordsmanship, the knights won’t learn it.”
The man closed his eyes as if thinking about something. The knights were holding their breath with the momentum to storm the battlefield as soon as Stauffen gave a signal. Staufen felt a feeling of exhilaration or anxiety shaking his chest.
I felt like I was at a crossroads.
The crossroads between heaven and hell. On the road with no signs or traces, Stauffen boldly determined his direction and shouted.
“charge! Charge!”
The knights rushed forward like wolves. The soldiers holding the shields were clearly taken aback by the strange and light movements of the black ink ships they hadn’t expected. They made their way across half the battlefield, bouncing across the ground like water ferrets.
It happened just as the cavalry units had just started and were accelerating.
Their speed and shields opened with a roar as if they were about to crumble from the inside.
Stauffen smiled broadly and looked at the man.
“Look! You will see clearly now that I was right!”
The man smiled at him and nodded.
“Staufen. As a fellow renegade, your advice has been very helpful. It was because of your help that I, who have no political insight, am here now. I see you quite well.”
Stauffen couldn’t understand why the man said this.
When I turned my head, the knights who had jumped high into the sky were throwing their bodies at the shield while holding their swords together.
The man was looking at the scene with an expression of regret and pity rather than anticipation. Stauffen moved his head several times, but he couldn’t understand the emotion on that man’s face.
bang!
And there was light.
A vast pillar of light soared in the middle of the battlefield, and sent the three knights who flew in to pierce the center back into the sky. The knights who floated in the air disintegrated in the air as pitch-black ashes, not understanding what had happened to them.
“uh… … ?”
Stauffen did not understand what had just transpired either.
A knight who flew in to strike the flank
The figure of the hand protruding from the inside of the shield and flying away,
The mysterious swordsman with his face covered
The appearance of overwhelming a knight who entered through a gap by performing strange swordsmanship.
with a hollowed ground in front
A warrior with flowing blonde hair
Standing in the middle of the battlefield with blue eyes shining.
Stauffen couldn’t understand any of that.
It was something that shouldn’t have happened in his common sense.
Because this couldn’t be
“Fate is logical. Isn’t it?”
Staufen’s face was whiter than anything on the battlefield right now.
