The Wise Lord - The Wise Lord chapter 118

Episode 118 – Ruben’s Knights (1)

– Order of knights lined up!

good! Chachak!

With Kendrick’s cry, a series of mobs moved.

An angular, restrained movement.

As if it had been promised, it was uninterrupted and uninterrupted.

“insect!”

“insect!”

“insect!”

Simultaneously with the erupting military rendition, Kendrick stepped forward the most.

With dark blue eyes, he knelt down to Xian.

– Ruben’s Knights, Kendrick and 20 others. All preparations for departure have been completed.

‘oh···.’

Sian sighed inwardly.

That would also be the appearance of the knights now visible.

Along with the leader, Death Knight, Kendrick, all the knights were wearing dark black armor.

The sword he picked up while taking military rites contained pitch-black darkness.

It is an equipment specially made by the Dwarves of the Territory.

All equipment was of S-grade quality.

It was the moment when Xian went through hardships and wise things shined.

Even in the process of making it, no other ingredients were required.

Xian immediately completed ‘Morcru’s Metallurgy’.

In it, Morkru’s know-how was intact.

The legendary blacksmith who was called the Goddess, Morkru.

Having learned that know-how, the Hammer Moru tribe was able to grow from artisans to masters.

Semir was able to enter the realm of a master from a master.

Thanks to that, precious materials that were previously used to make S-grade equipment.

They were made by Semir with SS grade equipment.

Xian looked at the knights lined up once more.

Although there were only 20 people.

In the beginning, there weren’t that many soldiers.

Because no one could learn the Auror practice that Kendrick taught.

It is said to be backward compatible with the Mahon manufacturing method.

Even this required great talent.

The people gathered now are people with such talent.

Those who were trained day and night by Kendrick.

Is it because of that?

with sparkling eyes.

With the posture that the military is perfectly held.

There, even pitch-black equipment.

Even if they were truly demonic knights, there was no shortage.

Sian nodded in satisfaction and asked Kendrick.

“how is it? Would it be okay to go out now?”

-Compared to the past, the Black Lion Knights are much lacking.

It was natural.

The Black Lion Knights who followed Kyle.

It was a crazy knights group made up of all masters.

How could I bet on the knights?

No, the knights who could be rubbed did not exist on the continent.

The Royal Knights and the White Wolf Knights.

No matter how many knights pushed in, there was no choice.

but.

-However, the growth rate of the knights is incredibly fast. Even the former members didn’t do this…

Kendrick’s dark blue eyes flashed in disbelief.

A growth buff applied to none other than Ruben.

The effect was amplified by upgrading the Arnaise perk last time, ＜Charlotte’s Pride＞.

A whopping 2,000% growth efficiency as a basis and at the same time.

Even the ‘Knight Training Center Lv.

An extra 1,000% added, and here’s one more thing.

Among the effects of ＜Morcrew’s Flame＞, a buff that increases the building efficiency of the manor has been overlapped.

Even those who are called geniuses among geniuses on the continent.

It would not have been possible to have this kind of growth rate.

-If this state goes on for a few years… I think it will be comparable to the Knights of the Black Lion.

said Kendrick, full of conviction.

In a word, it was a story that all of Ruben’s knights were close to master level.

But Xian didn’t think so.

that the rate of growth is fast.

It wasn’t something that exceeded the limits of the talent I had.

And the master’s stage required literally natural talent.

The difference between a user and an expert is enormous.

Not to mention Expert and Master.

The wall of that difference was infinitely thick.

It wasn’t just master, master.

That’s why they each have a bar talent.

Until then, it would grow at an astounding rate.

However, if you hit that limit, growth will stop.

It was different from Xi’an growing up through mobile lords.

but···.

Xian looked at the 20 knights lined up.

And he said with a smile on a familiar face.

“Duras, were you there too?”

“Yes!”

Duras stood up and shouted loudly.

Along with it came the sound of armor snapping and clattering.

Territory soldier, Duras.

As Xian observed, Durras was not very talented.

common.

To be precise, it could be said that it was a talent that fell short of the average.

But Duras was more zealous than anyone else.

Although Ruben’s soldiers were all eager.

Durras was especially zealous among them.

Duras, who stayed alone at the training ground and wielded a sword even when others were sleeping.

That’s because Xian saw it almost every day.

Duras had mediocre talent.

But now it is here.

It must have surpassed the limits of his own talent.

And if Durras can do it.

Other soldiers and knights can do it too.

That Duras is standing here now.

It really meant a lot.

To Xi’an and to others.

Xian approached Durras and patted him on the shoulder.

“Good job.”

“Thank you!!!!”

Duras shouted in a voice that seemed to leave the world.

“Hey, I’m going to lose my ears. Speak moderately, son of a b*tch.”

Turong-!

A dull sound was heard as Xian slapped Durras on the back of the head.

And after all, S-class equipment is equipment?

Durras didn’t seem to feel anything.

‘Ugh…!’

It was only Xian’s hand that hurt.

Xian returned to his seat as if nothing had happened.

Then, behind the ranks of knights, he saw the people of Ruben’s territory huddled together.

“stylish! The best!”

“Kuhup…! I wasn’t chosen, but wait and see!”

“We have to go to our share and show it properly!”

It was the founding ceremony of the Knights of Ruben, and the first launching ceremony.

“Dad, I also want to be like those knights over there.”

“Ha ha ha ha! okay! That’s what a dream is, son!”

Youngji people watch it and celebrate it.

He nurtured a new dream he couldn’t have in the dark forest.

Xian looked at the young people who came out to meet him.

Then he slowly turned his back and walked away.

This step towards the northern part of the Empire.

At least to gain the favor of the Dark Elves.

To a large extent, now, to protect the people of Ruben.

clap.

Behind Xian, Kendrick and the 20 Knights followed.

At the same time, a soldier’s loud cry broke out over the guard tower.

“It’s a knight! Come on, come on!!!”

Woo woo woo woo!

the sound of horns.

“Waaa!”

“Waaa!”

Receiving cheers, the Knights of Ruben went on their first campaign.

#

The northern part of the Charlotte Empire.

It is the end of an empire bordering barbarians.

A land of harsh winters where a piercing wind blows.

Snow was piled up all year round in the north.

It was a barren land where crops were difficult to grow, and it was an area as difficult to live in as the dark forest.

And the environment makes the person.

The people of the North resembled the characteristics of the North and were very strong.

Besides, you have to prepare for the invasion of barbarians.

It was also the main activity stage for mercenaries.

‘······ Hans said that he was active here a lot.’

Hans was a very skilled mercenary in the past.

Hans’ main stage of activity was the North.

“by the way···.”

Xian calmly looked around.

Snow covered all sides in pure white.

It wasn’t snowing, but a gust of wind blew the snow and obscured the view.

“It’s filthy cold…”

It was too cold.

Even though it was cold, it was too cold.

Every time the wind blows, I could immediately know the feeling of really ‘cutting my skin’.

It’s not a joke, the wind is a plague.

I wondered if someone was using wind cutter magic.

The Knights of Ruben were all the same.

I pretended not to be in front of Xian, and stood calmly.

Dal-dal-dal, the street trembled, and the sound of the armor cracking and colliding was heard.

A land of harsh winters.

“Kendrick. you wish It won’t be cold there.”

Then, as Kendrick said, Sian’s bracelet shimmered black.

Of course I couldn’t understand what he was saying.

“Are you saying you can’t feel the cold because you’re already dead anyway?”

It seemed like he was just saying something like this.

And I wonder if it was really like that.

Black light shimmered calmly in the bracelet.

“·······”

I feel like only the cyan I asked for no reason became garbage.

In any case, it was true that he did not feel the cold.

“Uh… when are you coming?”

Xian braced himself against the blowing wind cutter magic.

“Mo, the mobile lord doesn’t like warm items…”

Xian took out his smart phone from his arms with trembling hands.

The smartphone that touched the tip of my hand was also frozen because it was not cold.

The moment I tried to run the mobile lord like that.

Tring!

＜＜To da da da da da…! Tongue out, support…!”

Suddenly, a strange notification popped up on the screen.

It looked like he was having a seizure…

To be precise, it looked like it was trembling.

“What?

Xian really wanted something.

And just then.

In the distance, I could see a series of people approaching through the white snow.

Xian dispelled his curiosity and put the smartphone back into his arms.

So little time passed.

“You went through a lot of trouble to come this far north.”

A tall man approached Xian.

He must have been in his early 30s.

I wondered if the impression that looked a little sad was that of a northerner.

The strong muscles visible over the thick clothes were also telling us that he was a northerner.

“My name is Bendington Battenberg. nice to meet you.”

Bendington Battenberg.

Xian knew the name.

To be precise, he knew the surname Battenberg.

Margrave of the North, Count Osley Battenberg.

The Battenbergs were a family of margraves.

And now Bendington in front of Xian.

Bendington was using the last name of Battenberg.

It was not difficult to see that it was the son of Earl Osley.

“This is Xian, the lord of Ruben. Follow the orders of His Majesty the Emperor of Hwa, Hwa… Apply to the North Oh, I’m here.”

My horse trembled in the constant gust of wind.

A sniffling runny nose.

Bendington looked at the draft in silence.

‘I knew Kai Ellandour would come, but…’

Bendington thought to himself.

However, the Elandur in front of me was not Kai, but Xian.

The same Elandur or.

A very different Elandur.

Bendington knew Xian.

Since he was a Margrave’s family, he was not particularly interested in the central situation.

Still, Bendington knew Xi’an.

First of all, the name of the bar I had was also Elandour.

The Marquis family’s madman and pervert.

Because I didn’t know about the rumor.

In addition, there is even a rumor that he is the world’s dunjae.

Of course, at the time of the last National Foundation Day event.

He knew that Xian was chosen by the Zodiac Sword.

Also, I don’t know if it’s true.

There were also vague rumors that he was called a hero in the western part of the Empire.

So maybe a little… I also had a desire.

however.

“Ah, ah… Chu, it’s cold…!”

Bendington sighed inwardly.

Above all, those who lined up behind Xian

From nob le mt l. co m

Judging by their outfit, they seemed to be knights.

The sound of armor that can be heard along with trembling and moving.

‘It’s not the White Wolf Knights.’

Even at first glance, it wasn’t the White Wolf Knights.

Even the number of people was 20 with my daughter.

What can I do to help you with that?

Is it true that I came to help in the first place?

Lorsilt knew that Panat and the Arcanic Magic Corps had been dispatched.

But what is Ellandur thinking?

It was to the extent that I wondered if this was a mockery of not only Battenberg, but also the name of the emperor.

Bendington sighed inwardly.

The current situation in the north was very difficult.

Not to mention the bitter cold of the North.

Even barbarians who use dark mana.

Bendington’s regrets continued, but he showed no sign of it.

“You have worked hard to come this far. As long as the situation is the situation… I’m going to tell you the situation as we go, but is it okay?”

“Mu, mu, of course…!”

Xian nodded fiercely.

Sooner or later, out of this damn cold, full of thoughts.

Seeing Xian like that, Bendington sighed inwardly once more.

“First of all, let me briefly say…”

Right then.

“The Archduke! I’m the Grand Duke!!!”

A loud cry was heard in the distance.

where I was looking for something.

There, a soldier was running in a hurry, breaking through the snow.

A very desperate, yet desperate expression.

In an instant, the soldier standing in front of Bendington gasped for breath.

“It’s a big deal…! It’s a big deal! Now… now the barbarians are stationed…!!”

“Damn it!!”

Bendington gritted and chewed his teeth.

Then, leaving Xian alone, he ran out at full speed.

#

Pooh!

Bright red blood splattered across the snowfield.

“Quaaagh!”

A scream erupted along with him, and the body of a soldier collapsed.

A huge ax that fell on the corpse of such a soldier.

Kwajik!

There was a cracking sound, and blood that hadn’t cooled down yet spurted out.

The fallen soldier showed no reaction.

Since it was a life that had already been cut off, it could not respond.

But the ax did not think to stop.

Kwajik! Kwajik!

The ax continued to strike over the soldier’s corpse.

The fallen soldier was crushed to the point where there were no words to describe.

“Kha ha ha!”

“Cuck!”

Screams erupted from all sides.

The white snow field was stained red with blood.

On top of that, the barbarians rushed and slaughtered people.

No purpose, no intention, no meaning.

The frenzy of lunatics who only lust for slaughter.

“Ahhh···.”

The soldier lost his will to fight at that brutal and terrifying sight.

“Sah, please save me… please… please save me…”

Kwap.

A barbarian gripped the soldier’s face with a violent hand.

Thick blood oozes from the soldier’s face.

and a dazzling brilliance to be seen.

“Say, save—!”

Kwajik.

The soldier’s throat was cut with an eerie destructive sound.

The savage grinned.

and a roaring cry.

“Don’t put a process on winning! We are beasts!! I don’t need rules and morals! Just be true to your instincts!”

Finally, he lifted the severed soldier’s head.

Blood dripped through the cut sections.

“And the instinct…”

The savage drank from the dripping blood.

Crimson blood spreads to the corners of his mouth, and thick madness blooms.

“Very cruel.”

With a swish, he threw the neck he was holding at random.

“Kill all the men, let the women live!”

“Khehehehe!”

“It’s looting!!”

Numerous savages burned up madness and slaughtered the soldiers in the garrison.

Right then.

“You motherf*ckers!!!!”

Perseok!

A loud shout was heard, and the huge sword swung in all directions.

The savages in front were swept away at once, and the blood splattered.

“Assist the Archduke!”

“Drive out the barbarians!”

At the same time, a series of articles poured in and cut down the barbarians.

Bendington Battenberg and his knights.

They were cutting down barbarians and protecting people.

but.

“Khehehehe!

“Kill them all!”

The barbarians did not back down.

Again, he ran away with a vicious smile.

Cool madness bursting out.

A reckless rush is carried out, ignoring death.

Quaang-!

Kwajik!

Perseok!

A fierce fight ensued, and blood was splattered in all directions.

And Bendington knew right away.

“sh*t···!”

that it won’t last long like this.

Aura Expert Intermediate Bendington.

Bendington is a high-level knight, but the number of barbarians raiding was too many.

No, it wasn’t just the number.

Kwak-!

“Kuh…!”

The impact of the heavy hit sent Benddington into a pang of pain.

There stood a barbarian holding a huge axe.

Gleaming madness and eyes.

And something dark red that swayed between the axes.

It was none other than Auror.

Somehow, the barbarians used the power of the Aura.

I couldn’t figure out why that could be.

To be honest, I didn’t even know if it was an Auror.

However, the power I felt was a clear aura.

He mingled with the savages who were faithful to their instincts and emitted monstrous power.

Kwak-!

Bendington gritted his teeth and shouted to the knights behind him.

“You guys, evacuate the people right now!”

“Ha, but…!”

“I will block this place! So come on!”

Bendington shouted and ran forward.

And just then.

“…?”

Bendington’s running body froze.

My head tilted at the sight in front of me.

That would be the scene in front of Bendington’s eyes.

There is a blond-haired man, Sian.

It was because Xian was fighting against the barbarians.

I didn’t know when it came.

However, Xian wielded a sword against the barbarians.

And the savages who had been fighting Bendington until just now.

Wedge-!

I could still feel the terrible power of the great ax being swung.

It was not easy for Bendington to handle the power contained in that axe.

however···.

Why?

Kang! Cacan!

Xian lightly blocked it.

The power of the exploding ax was paralyzing in front of Xian.

Even so, the momentum felt was still ferocious.

The swinging ax looked like it would crush anything.

But when it collides with Xian’s sword.

Caen.

It lost its power in an instant.

“Uh, what’s that…!”

Bendington’s eyes widened.

I’m sorry-!

Xian’s sword slid past the barbarian’s arm.

The arm holding the ax soared into the sky, and blood spurted out.

But no screams were heard.

No screams of pain,

Even the savage’s breathing was not disturbed.

Rather, it was just a flash in the eye and rushed to kill Xian with the remaining hand.

A terrible madness that only lusts for slaughter.

It was madness that made me sick of it just by facing it.

but.

“Use the power of demons…”

Xian easily dodged the hand of the savage.

At the same time, Xian put his hand on the savage’s body.

That moment.

“Ahhhhh!

A terrible scream erupted.

Even though his arm was cut off, he didn’t make a sound.

“Turn it off—! aaa!

Now he was screaming out in agony.

Before long, the savage collapsed to the ground with a flop.

At the same time, the madness that I felt at the same time faded in an instant.

“……!!!”

Bendington’s eyes were tearing open.

Xian stared blankly at the fallen savage.

Madness still flashes.

“I thought they were swallowed by demons, but these guys were originally garbage.”

Xian muttered softly.

Soon after, Xian slowly let go of his hand.

Then, sneakily, he looked back.

Twenty knights could be seen behind such cyan.

Knights in jet-black armor.

The jet-black knights lined up and drew jet-black swords.

The barbarians and the jet-dark knights confront each other.

“Don’t give a damn, wipe it all away.”

And a word from Xian heard.

at the same time as saying

Saaa!

Darkness, like pitch black, spread in all directions.
