Chapter 328 Arcadia’s Collapse (3)
Luna Kingdom.
There were three swordsmen representing Luna.
Royal Knight Commander Leo.
Gyro, the swordsman of the snowfield.
Cayden the White Flying Squirrel.
In terms of skills, Caden was on the side of being much inferior to the previous two, but he was still not easy enough to be called Luna’s representative swordsman.
4 star aura test.
His swordsmanship, which moved quickly over the snow and drove the enemy, was worthy of being called a master at least in Arcadia.
however.
Caden had a strange feeling.
on the day of departure.
29 soldiers who left for Luna Kingdom appeared, and their faces stimulated Cayden.
‘… They all look strong?’
Cayden has lived in Arcadia all his life.
He had crossed endless mountains for the kingdom of Luna, but in fact, he did not know much about Dmitri.
Chris and Kevin.
I knew about two.
It was because he had shown tremendous success in the war against the Cronus Empire, and there were no people who looked easy except for the two.
The first person that caught my eye was Fred.
Although he was clearly a regular soldier, he was not confident enough to defeat Fred with just his momentum.
Beside him was Logan.
Facing his strong physique and sharp eyes, it seemed that Logan would not be able to win with his own skills.
and.
I saw Ares.
In a momentary goosebumps situation, Caden swallowed dry saliva.
‘To think that Dmitri has such a strong man.’
It was absurd.
He is the second best swordsman in Luna Kingdom after Leo and Gyro, and it was calculated that he could not defeat 5 people except for Roman Dmitri.
And that’s not all. The other soldiers didn’t look like regular soldiers either.
People who would have been members of the Royal Knights if they had belonged to Luna Kingdom existed in front of Caden as regular soldiers.
It was shocking.
If you are skilled enough.
I was sure that even 30 people would help.
Above all, when Roman Dmitri appeared, Caden felt an indescribably strong feeling.
Cheokcheok-
The soldiers lined up.
Even Ares, who thought he was overwhelming, and even Kevin, who was called Dmitri’s demon, showed a angular appearance at the appearance of Roman Dmitri.
The presence of the soldiers was buried by Roman Dmitri.
Facing the strong presence of Roman Dmitri, I could understand why Isabel had asked him to visit him.
really maybe
I thought that asking for help from Dmitri might be the choice to save Luna Kingdom.
“I will guide you.”
Cayden to set an example.
Even if no one told him to, Kayden felt like he had to.

A week ago.
The situation in Luna Kingdom was devastating.
Sebastian, Isabel’s agent and Luna’s High Priest, delivered the situation reported by Cayden.
“Dmitri has decided to send 30 people, including Roman Dmitri, to help Luna Kingdom.”
“… Are there only 30 people?”
“okay. But Dmitri is also a risk-taking choice. Dmitri has fought a series of wars, and recently there are signs of civil war in the Valhalla Empire. In a situation where he might not have helped us, it was decided that Roman Dmitry would move directly on the line where we accept some conditions. Dmitri arrives two weeks from now. Until then, focus on Mercury as much as possible.”
at that point.
Sighs erupted from everywhere.
The day Caden left.
The people of Luna Kingdom prayed earnestly.
If God had not abandoned Luna, he hoped that Roman Dmitri would appear like a hero and save Luna Kingdom.
But 30 people. I couldn’t help but be disappointed.
Sebastian emphasized that Roman Dmitri’s direct move was a great thing, but those who accepted it couldn’t think so.
recent.
The sad news came from everywhere.
Tens of thousands of orcs, led by Graxar, slaughtered the different races of Arcadia, and the traces of those who had been turned into food terrified the Luna Kingdom.
It wasn’t just a matter of death.
In a situation where they could be raised like livestock if they were defeated by the Orcs, Luna Kingdom hoped that Cayden would deliver good news.
Because expectations were high.
The feeling of despair was bound to be great.
In fact, the people of Luna Kingdom knew that just hoping for the help of Roman Dmitri, who had no contact with them, was excessive greed.
However, in a situation driven to the edge of a cliff, it was not possible to make a rational decision.
I understand that Dmitri can’t take the risk, but 30 people couldn’t soothe his despair.
It was then.
“Ambassador. 30 people cannot turn the tide against tens of thousands of orcs. If you can’t wait to trust Roman Dmitri, the Luna Kingdom must make a decision and respond.”
snow field inspection.
It was a gyro.
Gyro looked at the leaders with sharp eyes and spoke in a steady voice.
“According to Queen Isabel, Roman Dmitri must be a great swordsman. I don’t doubt his skills, but I can’t trust the future of Luna Kingdom only with Roman Dmitri. Luna is a country with a long history. Although Luna did not have many wars in the Land of Harmony, as the only human nation in Arcadia, we always defended Luna’s territory.”
“But gyro. This is a real problem. There is no way to defeat tens of thousands of Orcs with Luna alone.”
Sebastian reacted with concern.
Luna Kingdom.
In fact, it was a fairly small country by the standards of the Salamander continent.
Luna was a country where the birth rate was not high due to the bitter cold and the population was not high even compared to the Kingdom of Cairo.
Besides, wars were not common in Luna’s history.
There were only a few people who naturally received military training, and the odds of defeating Orcs, who were born with warrior blood, were slim.
but.
Gyro thought differently.
“I admit it. Luna’s strength will never defeat Graxar’s Orc troops. I am not saying that we should end the war with Luna alone. Roman Dmitry arrives in two weeks. Until then, I think it is necessary to create a perfect board to annihilate the enemy when Roman Dmitri arrives, rather than having Luna’s storages taken away one by one while watching in a daze. I will be at the forefront. We can defeat the forces of evil if we take control of the situation with Luna’s power.”
“Right!”
“Let’s defeat the Orcs with the power of Luna!”
people agreed
They thought that they couldn’t just watch it as it was because of the strong desire that Zyro showed.
over the castle walls.
People were dying.
Anger had already reached its limit, and special measures were needed if Roman Dmitri could not be trusted.
“… Whoa.”
Sebastian let out a deep breath.
If even the name of the High Priest could not calm the boiling atmosphere, he had to choose the best situation.
“okay. How do you plan to deal with the orcs?”
* * *
Cheerreureuk.
unfolded the map.
Gyro pointed to the seventh cellar that had been captured by the orcs and said.
“Currently, the orcs of Graxar are here. Based on their pattern so far, they will most likely be on their way to their next goal in the next few days. Then, where do you think your next target will be?”
“… Probably the sixth cellar.”
storage.
It meant the land blessed by Isabel.
Isabel completely protected some of the land from the cold, and the people of Luna Kingdom planted crops in the land called storage.
Thus, there were a total of eight storages in the Luna Kingdom.
Graxar’s orcs had captured two of them and were now likely targeting the other silos.
Gyro shook his head.
“no. Since Graxar is a very warlike being, it is clear that he will attack those who get caught in his path first. What Graxar wants is the foodization of all races except Orcs. If so, they will inevitably set foot in the yeti’s territory.”
snowman.
It was one of these races.
With a gigantic height of over 3m, a hairy appearance, and great strength, they were a race that excelled in combat, including Orcs.
Instead, their populations were quite small.
At most, hundreds of yetis would be completely annihilated the moment they were attacked by the orcs without even being able to resist.
Gyro pointed to one place.
On the way to the yeti’s realm, there was a limited space due to the cliffs on either side.
“Right here. Orcs will pass this place. In the meantime, we have never attacked first, so Graxar is likely to move his forces complacently. If that’s the case, if you contact the yeti ahead of time and ambush them here, you’re sure to do some serious damage. Yeti block the narrow space. If we wait for the right time from above and launch an avalanche, there is no way for the orcs to escape the avalanche. Of course, this doesn’t mean that you can perfectly deal with orcs. But you can definitely get meaningful results rather than spending two weeks without meaning.”
Everyone nodded.
Gyro is the swordsman of the snowfield.
His words were quite persuasive because he knew better than anyone how to fight in the snow.
at last.
After thinking for a while, Sebastian followed the trend.
“… i get it. just keep in mind if the operation fails. Run away and don’t look back. If we lose a significant number of troops in this operation, even with the help of Roman Dmitri, the situation will be irreversible.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
Gyro rose from his seat.
men following him.
Sebastian looked at him with worried eyes.
He was the one who missed Isabel’s existence so much today.
* * *
It was as planned.
Gyro, watching the situation from the top of the cliff, spotted the orcs advancing in the distance.
‘Graxar. This will be your grave.’
few years ago.
Gyro had the experience of meeting Graxar.
It was a place to fight on behalf of each race, and on that day, Gyro, who mixed weapons with each other, had positive feelings toward Graxar.
In a peaceful world, beings pursuing nothing like themselves were not common.
That’s why he rated Graxar well, but this war completely changed his mind.
It was disgusting.
Graxar laughed and chatted with the other races, thinking of them as ‘food’ at any time.
The goal of this operation was not simply to inflict damage.
He intended to create an avalanche to confuse the orcs and then deal with Graxar himself if possible.
if successful
You can save the fire of reversal.
Current Orcs would not be so powerful without the focal point of Graxar.
Finally.
The orcs have arrived.
As they entered the path in the cliff, the yetis buried in the snow stood up as if they had been waiting.
“Quaaaaaagh!”
“It is beneficial!”
“Chwiik yetis have appeared.”
Kwajik.
The yeti swung a huge hand.
The body of the first moving orc exploded at once, and the yeti let out a roar filled with murderous intent.
It was the moment the battle began.
The yeti, whose whole body was a weapon, brandished their arms and tore the orc’s body apart, and the orcs rushed in unison, stepping on the corpses of their comrades and flying up, inserting their weapons into the yeti’s body.
puck.
Blood spattered.
The yeti screamed in pain, but his bloodshot eyes aimed at the orc hanging from his body first rather than at the wound.
Kwajik.
It was a brutal sight.
Zyro, disguised in white clothes, calmly waited for the right time to see the snow piled up and stained with blood in an instant.
It wasn’t enough yet.
Yeti can survive an avalanche with their race-specific ability, but Orcs will die in the snow as they are buried.
So, I had to take enough time.
For enemies to come deeper, for large numbers to be swept away by an avalanche.
however.
Zyro’s expression hardened as he looked at the situation.
Something was strange.
Graxar was always at the forefront of the enemy, but no matter how much he looked, his presence was nowhere to be seen.
‘no way.’
Moment.
I got goosebumps all over my body.
An ominous imagination arose.
He hurriedly got up from his seat when a terrible scream pierced his ears.
“Cheer.”
“evil!”
“That enemy! An enemy has appeared!”
in front of your eyes.
An unbelievable sight unfolded.
Numerous Orcs, led by Graxar, appeared through the path leading up to the cliff.
“Chwiik, as expected, rolls his hair.”
Only then did I know
What fell into the trap.
It was Gyro himself, not Graxar.
