Episode 814 Danger in Baybon (10)
Only three escorts, Captain Geiman, and King Baybon were in the Great Hall, which was blocked from entering.
Gayman, who posted the report with his head bowed, spoke soon.
“Your Majesty, please evacuate.”
“Mmm.”
Only the King’s calm voice resounded in Daejeon.
The royal capital was burnt to death like this.
According to reports, thousands of unidentified soldiers pretended to be knights and slaughtered the people.
If it were not now, it wouldn’t be easy to get out of the body.
Geyman knelt down and begged the king, who hesitated to answer.
“your majesty! It’s a royal castle, it’s a matter of getting it back! Please preserve the integrity!”
The death of the king was what they really wanted.
It was also true that the king needed to disappear in order for Baybon to fall.
‘I beg you, please think of the kingdom.’
However, Geiman’s earnestness did not reach the king in the end.
he said, shaking his head.
“How could I ignore the kingdom’s pain and run away?”
“your majesty!”
“Understand my dogma.”
The moment the king was about to raise himself from the throne.
Only Gay, who had been staring at the floor with a complicated face, was quietly brainwashed.
“your majesty. We will return it exactly as it was said.”
“What is that…”
Cheo-!
Gayman drew his sword and charged at the king.
“Stop!”
It is his skill that has reached an advanced Auror user.
Before the escorts could stop him, he struck the king in the back of the neck with his sword blade.
“Ugh…”
He lost consciousness and gently hugged King Mann.
The guards immediately drew their swords and pointed them at him.
“Chief Gayman! What is this!”
“Catch the criminal right now!”
“Don’t interrupt. If you block them, they won’t let anyone live.”
The escorts hesitated and withdrew at his usually friendly, lively eyes.
“…Do you think you’ll be okay with this?”
“Know. When Your Majesty wakes up, you will pay for that sin.”
“I can’t let it go like that.”
“Please, let it pass. I don’t want to hurt you guys.”
“So are we. Leave the kingdom, leaving your majesty the captain. This is the last suggestion to remind you of your old love.”
“It seems that we do not agree.”
Sueuuuuu-
Geiman’s sword moved slowly.
I was preparing for the attack with my whole body tense, but for some reason my vision was getting blurry.
The escorts collapsed on the spot without knowing why.
“I’m sorry. resent me.”
Gayman, who was looking down at them, took the king in his arms and left the palace.

The Dengwoldan, who fled with their backs to Cloyd, did not go far before encountering another Knights.
“Stop your steps right now and surrender.”
“Keugh! Is this the front yard of my house?”
“no. Maybe they’re not like royal knights.”
Cade said with a sigh.
Words that Cloyd had muttered softly.
‘It wasn’t like a royal knight from the beginning’.
That word struck me for some reason.
‘There’s no way Baybon could harm its own people.’
Until now, there was no sign of a civil war, so there would be no reason for the royal family to move troops.
If so, what do they mean?
I drew out my sword, prepared to die.
Woo woo woo-!
The ringing of bells from the royal castle extended to the son-in-law.
The guards, familiar with the sound, shouted.
“Alarm! Evacuate!”
“Everyone run away!”
Warning magic that Baybon, who experienced a brutal war in the past, left as a last resort.
At the distinctive signal that echoed throughout the kingdom, all residents and soldiers left their homes and began to run away.
It was the people of Deungwoldan who were rather embarrassed.
“Wait a minute!”
“If you run away that way!”
They were at a loss as people fled to and fro.
Even if it was not, it was Deungwoldan who was on the defensive.
As they forced themselves to move to protect the people, it became easier for the soldiers in the Black Room to attack.
“If you don’t surrender, stop dying.”
One of the leading knights threw a sword at Bent.
Cade called out urgently.
“Bent! Avoid!”
“omg!”
Hearing the cry, he quickly turned around.
However, the knight’s sword was already within reach.
Chow ah-!
A long line of blood formed on the back plate.
“Aagh!”
Fortunately, he escaped fatal wounds, but Bent, who had never suffered such a wound in his life, could not come to his senses.
The knight who brushed off the blood admired it as if it were unexpected.
“Hoo. Did you dodge it at the last minute? He’s a kid with better quickness than he looks.”
“This guy!”
Chaeeng-!
Unlike Cade, who wielded the sword with both hands, the knight blocked it with one hand.
The gap between the two was clear.
“Are you still going to deny the will of the royal family?”
“…”
The hand holding the sword lost its strength.
I was thinking.
Why are there still no cheering forces from the royal castle?
Perhaps, as they said, the royal family really ordered the massacre.
If that was true, all they were doing was meddling in internal affairs.
The article continued, probably noticing that Cade’s image was complicated.
“The Teng Yue Dan, treated as an honored guest by the kingdom, did not dare to interfere in the affairs of the kingdom, and even harmed the royal knights.”
“….”
“Do you know what you are doing to represent each country?”
“….”
“….”
He looked back at the members around him this time.
“This is a clear act of hostility towards Baybon. We will hold each country accountable for that. Also, the knights who have been found guilty of harming the knights who were doing the will of His Majesty the King will have you punished immediately.”
“Who knows how to die peacefully?”
“If you think about the kingdom, you should know which one is the right choice.”
At those words, several nobles shuddered.
For nobles, family honor is sometimes more important than their own lives.
If this massacre was really the decision of the Baybon royal family and the Baybon had to pay for their sins, the family could have fallen.
The disciples who were lost in thought put down their swords one by one.
All of them were sons of high-ranking nobles.
“Please promise me. To take our lives, but not to harm the family.”
“If you do, I will not resist any longer.”
At their words, Cade urgently shouted.
“Wait a minute! Are you all going to die like this?”
“Cade, do you really think you have a chance?”
“You won’t know until you try.”
“…Daughton’s son, none of the members who fled have returned. Do you know what this word means?”
“….”
“It means that this front is already surrounded. There is no chance we can escape alive.”
Cade gritted it.
“You mean you want to die like this?”
“As a noble, it is natural to take responsibility for your actions.”
Looking around, everyone seemed to agree with that statement.
“How… how could he give up his life so easily?”
“You who were born and raised in a baron family will not understand.”
He gave his last words and cast his gaze at the knight politely.
That look seemed to prompt an answer.
“If you quietly accept death, there’s nothing I can’t do as a last request.”
“I won’t say thank you.”
No one told them to, but they took care of themselves and lined up in one line.
Death row inmates awaiting sentencing.
In front of them, a knight lowered his sword and approached.
“Then go well.”
Even though he was the last one, he didn’t ask for a will.
He just drew his sword as if he deserved to die.
When a bastard sword the size of an adult’s body wants to touch the neck.
The head of the knight who had suddenly swung the sword fell.
The self-control, who had closed his eyes tightly at the risk of death, opened his eyes and looked at the situation when he did not feel the pain even after a while.
There was a courtesy robe covered in blood and smiling coldly.
“long time no see.”
The middle-aged man, who had only watched with his hands behind his back, opened his mouth for the first time.
“Who are you?”
“Why would you do this? I know.”
“…”
The originally white robe turned red because it had already soaked in blood.
Perhaps because of this, the middle-aged man did not recognize him.
“I don’t know.”
“I heard that the people who hit me in the first place don’t remember.”
Ray lifted his hood.
Then, the cold gray hair flowed down, revealing the beauty of the world.
The aristocratic children who were watching the scene were astonished.
Uncommon white hair and blue eyes.
There was only one person on this continent who was represented by the white robe he usually wore.
“You…”
The middle-aged man’s complexion suddenly turned pale.
A corner of the Black Room that greatly contributed to putting himself into the Demonic Realm.
I never expected to meet you in a place like this.
Ray raised his mana.
Hard-!
Remnants of the crumbled walls began to gather in the sky.
It gradually grew in size and soon became the size of a mountain peak.
Under the burning meteor, Ray grinned.
“You bastards of Noksadae, who owed a lot in the old days.”
* * *
Gayman stole a carriage and two horses from the castle and fled.
Due to the high altitude, it was impossible to travel by carriage on some roads, but Geiman, who was well versed in mountain roads, drove the carriage without difficulty.
To pass the time, he activated the King’s warning magic, but perhaps thanks to that, no pursuit was seen yet.
“No matter how saintly you are, you cannot stop an army of that size alone.”
The kingdom has already been captured.
In addition, knights wearing royal armor were roaming the streets in the adjacent area, so even if you estimate the number to be 5,000 more.
It was not a large number to subdue a country, but it could not help but be a burden in the situation where the capital had to be defended in front of its nose.
‘Please buy me a little bit of time. I will definitely bring my troops and come back to take back the kingdom.’
He thought to himself, speeding up his horse.
It is said to be a luxury royal carriage, but it is not a proper road and it shakes violently as it tries to go down the hillside.
The king got up grabbing his head as the wind bumped into it.
“Keuugh…”
“Your Majesty, are you awake?”
The king understood the situation as soon as he saw him sitting in the driver’s seat and driving the carriage.
“Sir Gayman! Stop the wagon right now!”
“I cannot follow.”
“Yes Inom! You mean you’re going to disobey me!”
Despite the King’s angry voice, Geyman still refused to give up.
“Your Majesty, I cannot comply now. You can’t just follow it now. When you arrive in Celia, please kill this blasphemous body.”
“Can’t we stop right now!”
“It is impossible.”
“Did you think Jim had to jump off to stop the carriage?”
As if he would grab hold of the door and jump down at any moment.
When King Baybon moved his body, which was supposed to be still incomplete, Gayman inevitably turned his back from the coachman’s seat.
“…Never forgive a series of disrespect.”
Teouk-!
The new model of the king has been stretched out.
Dalgrak-! Dalgrak-!
Silence again enveloped the carriage, with only the sound of horses running.
