Chapter 296 The shortcoming of the Liberty army, which occupied three castles in succession from Liberty’s border and advanced toward the capital, was the long and thin supply route.
Khalil Zamod also knew this, so he left a portion of his troops in each captured castle to manage the supply route.
As a result, the total strength of Liberty’s army, just in front of Romen’s capital, was about 1,400 knights and 40,000 soldiers, which was less than Macline’s 1 corps.
Of course, it was calculated that with just that many troops, they could overwhelm Romen’s army.
That time when the royal castle is visible in the distance.
Karil Zamod groaned at the unexpected sight.
“What is this…. Oh my God….”
It was worth it.
Roman’s troops, who thought they would be crouching inside the castle, were already preparing for battle on the plains.
If it were just that, Caryl would have cheered, but the problem was the two flags fluttering side by side on both sides of Romen.
Romero and the Principality of Tahiti.
Allied forces from three of the four countries in the alliance welcomed them.
And its strength was a large army that easily surpassed 1.5 times the current Liberty’s total strength.
– Punish the invaders!
As the enemy began to advance with shouts coming from the enemy camp, Liberty’s camp fell into panic.
“Why are there so many?”
“They said we would win!”
“How did this happen!”
It was originally an alliance established to fight against Grandia.
With the fall of Grandia, the army of the kingdom, which had not been at war for hundreds of years, was not well trained and had no tolerance for unexpected situations.
“Your Excellency! The enemies are approaching!”
“The soldiers are in confusion!”
“Holy shit!”
Even the commanders were confused and confused.
“Those Tria guys were so late…!”
When Karil Zamode came to his senses belatedly and grasped the situation, an expletive came out of his mouth.
“Dispatch a messenger immediately! Establish communication connections! Tell them to ask why the Kingdom of Tria did not participate in the war!”
The reasoning was simple.
Except for Kalon, who was confronting Teronan with the sea as a weapon, the remaining Allied Powers did not deal with the Kingdom of Tria, but instead focused their efforts on Liberty.
‘They’re all rushing at us… Could it be that the Trias are trying to handle this situation again? Are you trying to destroy the country?’
It was something that even Logan couldn’t understand, but anyway, what he had to do, not knowing Tria’s situation right now, was simple.
“Count Caryl. Leave the knights to me.”
“An outsider is coming out now…!”
“Shut up! Is this situation going to be resolved with just one communication? I’m losing my mind!”
Karil Zamode, who instinctively tried to exclude Logan, flinched at the shouting.
It wasn’t just that he was weak.
The energy of the Auror user had secretly penetrated his heart.
The general, who was panicked by the unexpectedly large army of enemies, lost his spirit and had no choice but to shrink from the sudden power of the superman.
“Remember His Majesty’s orders, Count! I am the vanguard! Line up the knights. I will personally take the lead!”
“Yes!? Yes! Oh, I understand!”
Karyl’s fiercely distorted face turned red, but she could not refuse Logan’s command.
“Come to your senses and raise your spear!”
Liberty’s knights looked puzzled when they saw an unfamiliar brown-haired man suddenly riding in front of them.
However, I had no choice but to change my mind as soon as Karil Zamode’s shout continued.
“Our kingdom’s new superhuman, Guile… Slayer! Follow my orders!”
Logan’s body, which leaped forward energetically, staggered slightly due to the fake identity that was added out of nowhere, as the fake identity wasn’t enough.
‘What is a Slayer? A Slayer!’
I laughed out loud at the naming, which didn’t seem to have any sincerity, but it didn’t mean I didn’t know the intention.
Even if an Auror user was guaranteed the status of a noble anywhere on the continent, he would have been worried about knights who would object if he were called a commoner without a castle.
‘So, wouldn’t it be better if I introduced you in advance?’
While blaming Karil’s narrow-mindedness, which did not suit his wit, Logan vigorously raised his sword.
Now was the time to boost morale by showing an overwhelming performance, even if it meant going beyond the limits.
The moment when a long silver auror blade shoots out from Logan’s sword.
“Wow!”
The knights erupted in cheers.
“If you take down three flags, the war will end! Follow me!”
Everyone on the battlefield turned their attention to Logan, who was rushing forward, engulfed in a silver flash.
“Aaaah!”
The Knights of Liberty, whose morale was high at the sight of him resembling a mythical war god, began to charge with a sound that could not be determined from screams or cheers.
Doo doo doo doo.
The two camps are rapidly getting closer.
The knights in the lead gradually increased their momentum as they felt each other getting closer in an instant.
“Don’t be scared! It’s just a bluff! There are no Auror users in the enemy camp!”
A shout filled with force spread across the battlefield, suppressing the loud sound of horses’ hooves.
Logan’s expression frowned slightly when he heard that sound.
‘They say they also collected information about Gunther Liberty.’
“We have a lot of ships! Rush!”
The enemy leader denies Logan’s visible momentum and ships half the number of enemies.
Even though he may have been wrong about himself, it was a wise decision. Even with that simple lie, the enemy’s morale soared immediately.
Of course, for some it was just a meaningless improvisation.
‘What a traditional assault by knights like this.’
This situation itself only brought a bitter smile to a young king who used his knights only to shoot with a crossbow, explode with Liberatio, and then stamp out the devastated camp.
‘Once we take over the coalition, we will have to arm it with repeating crossbows first.’
It was a battle with no tension, to the point where I thought of things like this leisurely.
Because no knight in his eyes was capable of receiving his sword. However…
“I’ll step on you just as surely!”
An auror blade over 4 meters long extended from an ordinary long sword, not even the beloved sword Lux.
“No problem! I’ll reveal the trick!”
Is it because of overconfidence in information? Or maybe he really didn’t know the Auror, but the enemy captain’s Force Blade, which fearlessly charged towards him, split in vain.
Wow!
With the sound of a bomb exploding.
The body of the enemy hit by the silver auror blade exploded like a bomb.
His torn body turned into blood and attacked the knights who followed him.
A talent that goes beyond simply cutting and cutting, and even grants attributes to aurors. There was no one on this battlefield who could interpret what that feat meant.
Except for that party.
“I’ll kill you all!”
Every time the silver Aura Blade swung once, everything within a 4m radius was cut off.
The knight’s force-enhanced body and armor were of no use.
The horse, engulfed in silver light, focused all eyes on the battlefield and broke through the enemy lines in a straight line without stopping for a moment.
The price of not preparing for the enemy’s superhumans and instead ignoring them.
The allied forces of the three countries were paying a heavy price.
“Ugh!”
“It’s a monster!”
“damage!”
An object that flashes a light so loud that its shape is unrecognizable and causes blood to appear wherever it passes.
Soldiers from the rear of the enemy camp who saw the object approaching began to hesitate.
“What are you doing? There is only one enemy! Concentrate and kill it!”
Balta Grow, the commander of the Kingdom of Romen, surrounded by lush flags, continued to scream.
‘You’re an Auror user. Gunther is clearly in the royal castle…’
My stomach turned black at the unexpected situation.
However, no matter how superhuman he is, he gets tired.
When the silver light surrounding the body disappears, all that remains is the body of any other person. You can defeat it by pushing it until it runs out of strength. That was the only way for many to deal with superhumans.
but.
“Ahhh!”
“Run away too!”
“How do you do that?”
Soldiers who were supposed to be ‘expendable’ refused to play that role.
Everyone saw the knights who stood at the front in the most traditional way collapse at the hands of that silver monster.
The soldiers did not even dare to attack the monster that easily trampled on knights much stronger than themselves.
The extraordinarily sparkling, gorgeous silver color looks like an invitation from a messenger to the underworld.
“Everyone who stops me will die!!”
Moreover, as the strangely loud shouting pierced my ears, my legs suddenly gave out and I could not even stand properly.
The same was true for elite soldiers selected to protect the commander.
The silver monster passed by the soldiers who were sitting down on trembling legs, instantly cut off the heads of the guards and rushed at the commander..
Squeak.
“The flag of the Roman Kingdom has been broken!”
The monster, which decapitated the commander with a single sword and broke the flag, rushed towards another flag without even paying attention to the soldiers who sat down and urinated.
“Next! Romaine!”
The Kingdom of Romen and the neighboring country of Romain, which has twin ancestors.
The flag was a half-moon symbol, exactly opposite that of its brother’s country.
When Logan pointed to the flag and shouted, Liberty’s knights, who were in high spirits, immediately followed behind him.
“Wow!”
“We win!”
“Follow Guile!”
And they could be said to be Liberty’s elite.
Most of the clumsy people were stranded in the center of the battlefield, and only the skilled ones followed Logan through the large enemy army.
In front of them, Logan repeatedly spurred his horse, gauging the total amount of force.
In the meantime, I also came to a surprising realization.
‘I thought I was wasting force for no reason, but is this actually more efficient?’
Like a crazy person, he used force on the horse and made it sparkle, but honestly, I thought it was too much.
If it were an ordinary knight, it would have been an act of suicide that would have made him an immediate target and killed him in an instant.
Logan, who was confident of winning, chose this simply for his outstanding record and performance, but it seemed to have maximized the fear of his enemies.
The proof was that the enemy camp was collapsing more easily than expected.
‘Even if it’s a bit difficult, it’s worth continuing to use. Even when I go back.’
In this situation, the limited range of movement and skills due to changing the color of the auror were not a big problem.
“Everyone rush!”
Silver auror blades swinging one after another.
As more and more blood flowed into the path that formed a straight line following where he went, the battlefield cleared more and more quickly.
The silver reaper moves around the battlefield and wreaks havoc on the main camp.
Two of the commanders of the allied forces of the three countries had their throats cut less than three hours after the battle began.
The other one took off his helmet, threw away his flag, and disappeared.
As a general in this era, he chose escape, which is worse than death.
Naturally, the Allied forces collapsed from that moment and did not have the strength to block the Liberty Army, which soon rushed in.
“Kill them all!”
“Kill them all!”
“How dare you!”
Liberty’s soldiers swung their spears and swords mercilessly, as if denying their fear before the battle.
The allied forces, whose morale had fallen, were unable to properly respond to the fierce attack and were in a hurry to flee.
But at that moment.
“Do not touch anyone who surrenders!”
The silver reaper who brought victory to the allies calmed the madness of the battlefield.
“He who lays down his weapon is a prisoner! Honorable warriors of Liberty do not kill prisoners!”
They were saying strange things they had never heard in their lives, but it didn’t matter.
The owner of the silver light that seemed to have come down from heaven was the symbol of victory and the messenger of God who would save them.
“Follow the orders of Guile Slayer!”
“We won!”
“Show mercy!”
Even the knights who followed God’s messenger to victory in the war recited it loudly, and the madness of the army, which had been slaughtering even the wounded and fallen enemies who were unable to escape and collapsed on the battlefield, began to subside in an instant.
Although more than half of the enemy army fled, it was clearly an overwhelming victory.
Everyone on the battlefield knew who this record was thanks to.
“Long live Liberty!”
“Long live Guile Slayer!”
“Long live the Silver Reaper!”
However, Logan, the object of the praise, was busy watching the fleeing enemies and plotting the future situation.
