chapter 47
47 – Chilled Rage
“Close the gates!”
Aragorn’s cry resounded.
The soldiers who entered the castle hurriedly began to close the gate in accordance with Aragorn’s orders.
The barbaric warriors are approaching the castle.
If you do not close the door now, you will allow the enemy to enter.
That shouldn’t have happened.
However, there were those who objected to his order.
“Captain! There are many knights and soldiers who haven’t entered yet!”
It was Dunkel, the lieutenant.
Aragorn made a sad face at his words.
He sighs and says.
“If that’s the case, are you saying we’re going to allow the enemy to invade?”
“That, that is.”
Aragorn.
It was an order he didn’t want to give either.
But it was an order he had to give.
No one could have predicted what would happen if the door was not closed now and allowed to break in.
In the worst case, you could have to give up the castle gate.
Things that should never happen.
As his lieutenant, Dunkel, was well aware of this, he had no choice but to give up persuading Aragorn.
In the end, under Aragorn’s command, the gates were closed, and the knights and soldiers who could not enter were abandoned.
The soldiers and knights who couldn’t get inside shout.
“Open the door! You’re still fine! Open it, I mean open it!”
“Charles! You were supposed to drink like today, huh? Open this! I mean, open it quickly!”
“I have a child, open it, open it! If not me, who will feed my family! Open it quickly!”
The voices of knights and soldiers echo outside the castle.
The door still won’t open.
The condition of the soldiers who realized that they were definitely abandoned changes every moment.
“I can’t die like this, save me!”
“There is still time for the enemies to come! Please open it!”
While begging.
“Wrong, we are abandoned.”
“I don’t want to die like this.”
In despair.
“Aragorn son of a b*tch! Open the door!”
“Let’s see if you guys can sleep comfortably even if I die.”
“Even if I die, I will not forget you. Bastards!”
I resent it.
The voice of their resentment makes the hearts of the soldiers and knights in the castle heavy.
However, that resentment did not last long.
This is because all of the barbarian warriors who eventually arrived in front of the castle died without leaving a single one.
The soldiers who watched it all from the fort fired arrows in anger.
It rains countless arrows.
The savages who die after being hit by arrows appear one after another.
A coalition of barbarians that has already achieved some degree of victory.
They retreated before doing more damage.
The soldiers in the castle drove out the barbarians, but they couldn’t be happier.
The war has only just begun.

Quaang!!!
A thin, white-armed woman’s fist struck her desk.
The desk on which the map was laid out was shattered in half by the woman’s fist.
Milia, who had just arrived at the front, looked at Knight Commander Aragorn with an angry face and asked.
“Now, what did you say?”
Aragorn, who received Millia’s angry gaze, reported the war situation with a sorrowful voice.
“Out of the 1,048 people mobilized for the battle, 358 were killed and 112 were injured.”
“Are you telling me to watch it now?”
Great damage beyond imagination.
Aragorn, who was commanding the battlefield at the time, could not avoid the responsibility.
“I have no face. If you want to punish me, I will gladly accept it after this work is over.”
I lost half of my strength in just one battle.
If you want to use people who can move the body even a little for the wounded, you can use them, but they are worse than ordinary soldiers.
“Report clearly what happened.”
At Millia’s words, Aragorn told everything he had seen.
The number of enemies was overwhelming, so I decided that I would not be an opponent, so I retreated.
It was the right decision.
However, Tundra Wolf’s mobility was beyond imagination, and even during the retreat, his soldiers suffered one after another.
He entered the castle in such a hurry, but he couldn’t get all his soldiers into the castle, and he had no choice but to give up some soldiers to block the invasion of the enemy.
After all the reports, Aragorn clenched his fists trembling at the tragedy that had occurred due to his incompetence.
Blood dripped from his knuckles.
“Are you resentful?”
Milia, who was watching all of them right in front of her eyes, spoke.
“… ….”
Can’t answer.
She asks again.
“I asked if he was angry. Knight Commander Aragorn.”
I had to say it now.
Aragorn, eyes bloodshot, looks into Millia’s eyes and speaks.
“Minute…… Do. It seems that the anger will turn all the way around. Thinking of my subordinates who died because of my incompetence, I cannot forgive myself who is alive now. Majesty.”
“Then let that anger cool, and don’t get confused about where to pour it out. Be prepared, tomorrow I will destroy the seed without leaving any of those who have harmed my people.”
At Millia’s command, Aragorn knelt down on one knee and said.
“I will follow your orders.”
In that way, Aragorn’s anger, which had been burning hot, cooled down and became a sword to kill the barbarians without a moment’s hesitation.

“hahahahaha!”
The sound of boisterous laughter echoes in the large hut.
The head of the barbarian alliance.
Blue Wolf.
It was his laughter.
“Congratulations on your victory Warchief.”
Inside the hut were the chiefs of each tribe.
The chiefs of each tribe cheered him up according to the mood of the blue wolf.
“Congratulations.”
The blue wolf said to the congratulations of the chiefs.
“Yes, it is something to celebrate. I never thought this day would come so soon.”
“That’s right. If we only capture that castle, nothing will be able to stop us now.”
“All thanks to the Warchief.”
It was a time when the chiefs of each tribe were busy flattering the blue wolf.
“By the way, where the hell did you get these quality weapons from?”
Aww!!!
The blue wolf’s drink spilled over the face of the chief who asked the last question.
“Don’t say things that don’t taste like alcohol. Black bear.”
“I’m sorry. Blue Wolf.”
It is true that Abaddon provided weapons, but he brought shame to the blue wolves.
As a blue wolf, he didn’t want to think about it, so he got angry.
The atmosphere cooled down, but the heat of victory was not easily quenched.
Immediately, the atmosphere heated up again.
It was a time when the chieftains were drinking and enjoying themselves.
Someone opened the hut and came in.
Some of the chieftains’ eyes turned to the young warrior who had entered the hut.
A chief scolds the young warrior.
“What? Where are you coming in here! Can’t you see the chieftains are having a meeting right now?”
“I’m sorry. There is a quarrel between tribe members. I came here to ask for mediation.”
The young warrior trembled at the chief’s shout and spoke about his business.
The chieftain lightly listened to the words of such a warrior.
“He must have been intoxicated and excited about winning the battle. Let them enjoy it.”
“Ha, but.”
“Didn’t I tell you to go back? Do you want to die right here!”
“I’m sorry. Let’s go back.”
Such a young barbarian warrior was kicked out without saying anything to the chieftain’s scolding.
The blue wolf said.
“What is it?”
“No big deal. The young warriors of the tribe were drunk on victory and there was only a little fight.”
“Is that so? Your glass is empty. Do you use it when the glass is empty? Receive it.”
“hahahahaha, I don’t know what to do with the blue wolf following me.”
“hahahahaha! Drink, drink!”
The chiefs engaged in drinking did not know, but the scent of blood was spreading little by little among the savage warriors.

Even after a day had passed, the Grand Duke and his disciples hadn’t returned.
This was an opportunity.
Make a simple plan in your head.
Practice it right away.
“Damn Goddess.”
[Yes! Did you call?]
“Assist.”
[Auxiliary, what?]
Ignore the words of the goddess and increase the power of the god.
A goddess who doesn’t know English helps me for now.
I can feel the familiar power now.
With this endless power, I fly.
Tuduk. Fighting.
Release the restraints.
I loosened all the restraints that were binding me.
Regained the freedom of the body.
Lightly loosens the body that has been tied up from yesterday to today.
[Ah, no, did you use the power of God to break this restraint? Are you out of your mind?]
Aether gets angry.
“I will use my power as I please, but what does it matter to you?”
[Whoa, it was originally removed!]
“It’s mine now.”
[That, that!]
“Be quiet now, if you make a noise, I will throw it into the bonfire and leave.”
[Hup!]
The goddess’ mouth fell silent.
Hurry up and get ready to leave the castle.
The fact that the archduke and his disciples did not return after a day meant that something had happened.
I had to run away at this opportunity.
Aren’t you worried?
There are 5 masters.
If you want to worry, you have to worry about your enemies.
