The Kids I Saved Are Too Strong - Chapter 203



203 End of War

***[Heroine Oscar]***

The movement of the steppe people became disorganized in an instant after the death of the Silver Moon.

A little while ago, a sense of unity could be seen moving under one leader, but the moment the central point was lost, it was split into hundreds.

The large circles made of marbles lost their borders and seemed to roll apart.

One of the young warriors of the Silver Moon took the lead and tried to keep the warriors in check, but to no avail.

‘Is the author the 15th son?’

I heard that he likes research more, so I thought he was a slender researcher type, but surprisingly, he has a large body.

At first, the Silvermoon tribe, confused by the death of their chieftain, gradually began to unite around him.

Perhaps the Silvermoon chieftain left a will to the tribal warriors in case he died.

Even though his father died right in front of his nose, the movement of the young warrior who became the new focal point was not as chaotic as he thought.

With a little more time, the Silvermoon tribe may find a way out, even if the other tribes don’t.

Perhaps that young man is more suitable for a chieftain than the heir I first killed.

I raised my bow again.

My arrow shot through and pierced the young warrior’s forehead.

By this I have killed both the father and his son.

‘It’s bad luck.’

aaa

The Silver Moon warriors howled like beasts and glared at me.

The despair of the silver moon warriors who lost their chieftain and their lineage on the same day seems to reach this far beyond the air.

Unheard sounds seemed to pass through the eyes to the ears.

I couldn’t hear it, but the Silvermoon Warrior’s shout rang in my head.

“…”

Both the chief and the heir died to me, one person.

The fury of the Silvermoon Clan is so great that it seems to scorch the air.

Recognizing the atmosphere, the eyes of the duke’s soldiers also showed hostility.

The Silvermoon Warriors couldn’t see all of the walls on this side.

The distance is far, but there are buildings and a bell tower in the middle, blocking the view.

But even from afar, you will be able to recognize me as the commander-in-chief.

Above all, silver hair will stand out.

The Silvermoon Warriors started running towards us.

No more trying to find a way out.

I just ran, avoiding the building, aiming only for myself.

There are warriors who shoot arrows even though the distance is too far for arrows to reach.

only towards me

“…”

He probably wouldn’t accept it now, even if he spared him, even if he let him go back to the meadow.

They intend to die here.

I knew it from their eyes.

Almost at the same time as I was thinking that, arrows from the duke’s magician fell towards the Silvermoon tribe.

Most of the magical soldiers around me were brought in when I was young and raised by me.

There’s no way a magician like that would let those who aim to kill me.

Anger was burning in the eyes of the duke’s soldiers.

‘As expected… the silver moon will be annihilated.’

Someone has to take responsibility for the aggression.

Silvermoon will be able to save other tribes by carrying it.

I thought so, but I wondered if I could leave some of them.

But no.

Suddenly, not only the Silver Moon tribe, but also the atmosphere of the Duke’s soldiers completely changed as if they were watching Cheolcheon’s enemies.

The arrows of the duke’s magician were also changed to ones with greater killing power.

Every time an arrow exploded, the silver moon’s horse and warrior simultaneously lost their shape and scattered.

The power of the explosion reached the surrounding area.

A part of the horse or warrior that was running alongside them flew into the air.

In order to stop the progress of the Silvermoon Tribe, the bombs that were placed in advance exploded at the command of the commander.

Dust rose and some buildings collapsed.

People and horses are crushed by the rubble.

However, the Silvermoon Warrior was still running towards me, not caring about the death of his comrades around him.

I gave my gaze to Goruka, who was watching the battle together.

Goruka came to my side and asked what was going on with her eyes.

“I want to receive the surrender of the steppes once again.”

Goruka grinned.

“Okay. Now is the right time. We already know that the child of the moon is true, and the chief of the silver moon is dead. Most of them will surrender if we invite them now.”

Unlike the tribe that retreated earlier, the tribe that surrenders this time will be responsible for a significant amount of reparations.

A certain number of men and women must be enslaved, livestock must be surrendered, or perhaps the entire tribe must go under the red hawk.

Still, Goruka went down the wall, saying that he would surrender thinking of the family of Chowon.

As Goruka and the Red Hawk tribe left to approach the other tribes, I headed down the stairs to the bottom of the wall.

The lord of counseling and his aides followed me in confusion.

“Duke!”

“Why is that?”

I raised my hand to stop them.

“You all know how strong and accurate the arrows of the grassland tribes are? If it’s not the case, the current silver moon is invisible because of its anger. Even if everyone dies, it won’t stop. If they approach this way, it will cause considerable damage to our allies. That’s it. We need to deal with it before it gets into range of the Silver Moon.”

“If that’s the case, the Duke shouldn’t even step forward. Send out soldiers…”

“No, I don’t have time for that.”

Prince Robert is on his way to the Duchy.

Even knowing the news, I couldn’t move until this war was over.

It was okay though, I was doing my own calculations.

Robert is driven by a carriage.

Even if I finish the war and set off, if I keep running, I’ll be able to catch up by a narrow margin.

Even if it’s a little late, at most a day or half a day.

But at that level, Benno can withstand it.

He would protect Catherine at all costs.

But I couldn’t afford to wait too long.

My mind was quite agitated.

I’m just trying not to look like that.

The lord and the aide, who knew my feelings, couldn’t stop it and turned my face blue.

The only thing that was fine was the magician who always walked around with me.

“Uh, is it the same as the Witch Beast?”

One of the magicians asked with a twinkle in his eyes.

He has never been seen killing people, but he seems to have noticed it right away.

The magician next to him stabbed him in the side.

“it hurts!”

“Idiot. Check the mood. This is not the time to laugh.”

“But you’re excited.”

“you idiot.”

“You’re curious too.”

“But! Look at the atmosphere!”

The two spoke in whispers, but everyone can be heard.

The blind magician asked again.

“Anyway, they kill them all at once, just like the witch beasts, right?”

“okay.”

As I agreed with a wry smile, the aides looked at each other.

They also know how I kill demons.

“But no one should come near me. Even if it’s a Witchbeast, people can’t distinguish between friend and foe. So, don’t let anyone come near me.”

The answer was not the lord or his aide, but the magicians around him.

“yes!”

“Do not worry.”

“Leave the cover to us!”

The clear answers of the magicians seemed strange because they didn’t match the surroundings.

The aide seemed to think he couldn’t stop me.

One of my assistants since I was little came running with a map.

“Here! Please go to this place. If you are here, you cannot see them directly from the direction they are coming from. There are several buildings overlapping them, so you cannot shoot arrows.”

The aide pointed to a dot on the map of the city.

Certainly, if it were here, they wouldn’t be able to attack me in the Silver Moon.

While I’m on my way to this spot, it’s obscured by buildings from every direction.

It’s not like I’m thinking of this route right now.

Oh, and as I looked to the side, the face of the escort captain caught my eye.

I knew it from his expression.

‘This route was found by the guards from the beginning with this in mind.’

Maybe a long time ago, since I killed the Witchbeast in the same way, the guards might have thought that a day like this might come someday.

Maybe that’s why I always expected this kind of thing and did the same thing every time.

“okay.”

“It’s a promise! You have to go like this and this way. Never go in another direction, Duke!”

The aide held the map in front of me and slipped his finger to map out the route.

“OK got it.”

I checked the route with my own eyes and smiled.

The commanders quickly scanned the entire city and began issuing orders.

Arrows flew from different directions to drive the Silvermoon Warrior to a pre-determined point.

When I go down the stairs, as usual, the guards follow.

“You can’t either.”

“…”

At my words, the escort stopped walking.

The captain of the guard lowered his head a little after biting the guard.

“Duke, please be careful. We will prepare here.”

Since some time ago, the captain of the escort was always moving with the two magical soldiers.

I don’t reveal it specifically, but I think I’m preparing myself in case I bump into Prince Robert.

maybe that’s what he’s saying

If I think I’m in danger, I’ll go out.

“It’s fine this time.”

From nob le mt l dot com

Dealing with the Silvermoon tribe isn’t that dangerous.

As long as the arrow doesn’t reach me, nothing can kill me, and for some reason everyone has a spleen face, but this time it’s really okay.

I went down the wall and got on my horse.

As I moved along the route the guards had devised for me, I suddenly thought how blessed I was living.

My previous life was a mess, but this life is really happy.

As I rode my horse, I suddenly turned my gaze toward the castle wall, and a flag was raised to signal that the allies should retreat.

By the time we arrived at the designated point, the flag had already been lowered.

Everyone around here seems to have avoided it.

The angry shouts of the Silvermoon tribe could be heard from beyond the building.

After measuring the distance between the wall and this point, I released the magic.

At about half that distance, magic spreads around me.

The shouting and commotion that had been echoing around the building disappeared in an instant.

The sound of people disappears, only the chaotic neighing of horses is heard.

oh, you’re dead

In the silence, such a thought popped into my mind.

But I don’t know if they all died or how many Silvermoon Warriors died.

I looked up at the top of the castle wall, but it didn’t move as if a person had died standing there too.

It is as quiet as if frozen everywhere.

‘Stand, no way.’

From nob le mt l dot com

Did the mana spread farther without me knowing? Could it be that’s why they killed allies and other soldiers on the wall?

I panicked and moved the reins, but a black flag announcing the end rose on the wall.

The frozen air seems to have melted from that point.

A huge shout broke on the wall.

This may have been seen on the other side of the wall as well.

Loud cheers rose from all directions.

It was shortly thereafter that all the tribes of the steppe surrendered.

The mining town turned into a crucible of enthusiasm in an instant, and excited faces were seen everywhere.

The lords who camped elsewhere hurriedly came to see me, greeted me, and laughed heartily.

“…”

The war is over.

I didn’t need to be here any longer.

After entrusting Prince Emil with the job, I left the mining town with an escort.

The royal family has already been notified of Prince Robert’s departure for our duchy.

Knowing that this was not going to end well, he had requested a mediator from the royal family.

Before I left, I heard that the chamberlain had already departed for the dukedom.

The chamberlain will arrive at the duchy before Crown Prince Robert.

‘The chamberlain doesn’t even know that Robert is trying to kill me.’

The chamberlain probably thought that he was simply trying to stop Prince Robert.

But in reality it is a witness.

A witness from the royal family that we rightfully killed the crown prince.

Ha, I let out a small sigh.

If Robert does not die, this world will perish.

I don’t know about Robert himself, but he gave me a chance to deal with a crown prince who would never have been killed under normal circumstances.

‘If I don’t die… but.’

look like i’m going to die

Even if you come, you will never die.

For me and for the world.

And for Catherine too.

Recalling Catherine’s sparkling face, I urged my words further.
