chapter 50
50 – 50. When you see the end of even three generations
Episode 50
next day. I set out for the northern border with a handful of imperial troops, and while taking a break, I tilted my head at the sight of the rearguard following us.
Because there was no talk of joining the second generation.
“Besides, I didn’t even say you were coming.”
I was puzzled, and Selemine replied in a tone that it was not a big deal.
“Did you forget that I am the founder of the Imperial Army Magic Corps? We’re already sending undergraduates from the academy not only to the margraves, but to all over the empire, but as you know, the numbers aren’t enough. In addition, there is a large-scale offensive on the northern border, so it’s natural that the wizards also have to replenish it.”
It made sense. The sorcerer corps, which was the means by which Selemin roasted and boiled the margraves, was immediately put in as soon as the monsters and incarnations of the void arrived.
Of course, there was no time to go through proper training, so it was impossible to perform like the combat wizards of the original kingdom of Mayer, but reports continued to come up that the presence of wizards was quite helpful.
“Even so, did Marianne allow it?”
No matter how Selemin was, he never thought that he would have acted without permission in this situation. All the more so because the wizards he brought weren’t just undergraduates.
Marianne’s permission would have been essential if I had even brought the high-ranking wizards of the Sorcery Society, but when I asked just in case, Selemin took out a document from her arms and pushed it in front of me as if she had expected my question.
“It is an official order. See the emperor’s seal here?”
Really. Fortunately, I was relieved and apologized for my doubts. At the same time, worries about Marianne passed through his mind.
Sending Selemin, whom he regarded as a thorn in his eye, would have been the right decision for the emperor, but… … .
“Ugh. Shall we start again then?”
“Did we just arrive?!”
“I’ll go first, so follow me.”
I wanted to settle the matter on the northern border as quickly as possible and return to Marianne, so I mounted my horse again and started running.
Selemin grumbled, but followed closely behind us along with the wizards.
—
‘An innocent person.’
Following Isaac, Selemine smiled. It was the same as in the Meir Kingdom. Sensitive to hostility, but dull to goodwill.
It doesn’t mean that you don’t notice the favor. You wouldn’t have the slightest idea that there were other ulterior motives behind that favor.
Although he seemed relaxed and thoroughly thorough, he had no doubts about the people he cared about.
‘That’s why it’s more lovely.’
Selemyn instinctively felt the back of Isaac, who had been deceived by the fake order she had forged, especially as she licked her tongue as she watched his hip shake violently by the horse.
Now is the time. She couldn’t figure out why, but her instincts told her that she shouldn’t miss this moment.
‘There’s no Marianne who doesn’t want to look at her or Haria who gets in the way. This time, let Isaac’s heart go to me… !’
However, despite Selemin’s determination, Isaac continued to run, except for short breaks such as eating and sleeping as he headed north.
Of course, she couldn’t help but be angry.
‘It’s been a while since we’ve been together, and it’s too bad that you don’t even look at me properly!’
I knew why he was in such a hurry. It must be that he is trying to quickly settle things for Marianne’s sake and go back.
That made me even more angry. He felt like a chimney, wanting to shout out if his favoritism towards Marianne was sincere or if it wasn’t an act to keep him by his side.
“!”
When I noticed it, it was after I had reached the border line where the battle was taking place.
“Everyone rushes at them like this!”
As soon as he saw the castle being attacked, Isaac commanded the imperial army. Then, he asked himself to lead and support the wizards, and spoke as if asking.
“Never overdo it!”
Hearing Isaac’s voice dripping with worry, Selemyn felt her lower abdomen getting wet rather than hot.
‘It was also an illusion. There’s no way Isaac wouldn’t care about me, right?’
Feeling the sadness that had accumulated over the past few days being washed away at once, Selemine exclaimed.
“Do not worry!”
-I will definitely set you free from Marianne.
Selemine’s quiet oath didn’t reach Isaac, but it didn’t matter. Because he and she are connected by heart.
Accelerating his pace, he was already leading the Imperial army and charging towards the monsters of the void.
‘But what about those monsters… … ‘
As I looked towards the end of the direction Isaac ran, the monsters of the void naturally caught my eye. Selemin’s head tilted slightly as she absentmindedly looked at them.
They were definitely scary monsters, but for some reason, it was strange that they didn’t feel like they were really enemies.
‘Is it because I absorbed the energy of death?’
After thinking about it for a while, Selemin, who was moderately convinced, ordered the wizards to roughly support the imperial army, and then moved to closely observe Isaac’s battle.
‘This is my first time seeing it properly, so I have to get a good seat!’
Selemin, who was preoccupied with something else, did not realize it. That he came here not solely by his own will.
I hadn’t realized it yet.
—
“Oops?!”
Angelica Parks, unable to handle the strange energy, began to feel nauseous.
It was because of the unidentified energy flowing endlessly from the void monsters attacking the castle near the northern border of the Blatta Empire.
One member of the Parabellum organization looked at Angelica disapprovingly at Angelica, who hadn’t eaten much, so there was nothing to come out of it, but nonetheless, she continued to vomit.
“I would have said. There is no need to force it.”
“Huh… … Heo-eok… … Sin, I’m sorry.”
“Tsk. Would you like to go back now?”
“no. Please let me keep an eye on you.”
Despite the cold eyes of the members of the Parabellum organization, Angelica suppressed the rising disgust and looked at the huge metal box in front of her eyes.
This box was brought here by members of Parabellum. What was inside was, of course, a black knight who could only be called a demonic beast.
Elder Dragon Slayer Low Rekensus. He was a hero who was destined to be discarded, whether he won or lost, fighting the head of the Imperial Hound.
“… … Do I really have to go this far in a situation like this?”
“What kind of stupid are you talking about? It has to be done now.”
Angelica gritted her teeth at the words of the organization member who was resolutely asserting.
‘To disperse our forces for revenge while our hometown is all collapsing. It doesn’t make any sense… !’
The Holy Runtas Kingdom, the Elios Alliance, and the Galbaldi Republic, which created Parabellum, were currently experiencing near-destruction damage.
I don’t even want to think about how many people are dying right now.
‘Even if we gather our strength to overcome the crisis, it’s not enough, so what are we doing?’
The continent is ravaged by mysterious monsters that suddenly appeared, but why did they come to this place without protecting their hometown?
Angelica couldn’t understand Parabellum, who was trying to dispose of the Low Rekensus because it was no longer usable after using it as needed.
Not too long ago, she was the most vehement in the organization and had a vengeance against the empire, and she felt skeptical about it.
It would be natural for many organization members to complain that they no longer know what they are doing.
“Hey, it’s about time. “If you continue to remain blank like that, I will force you to return, so you know that.”
However, the gang members who had been harassing him earlier were different. Parabellum’s executive level, he and the upper echelons of the organization did not know what the hell was thinking and did not want to know.
“Liberate the black knight!”
When the member of the organization in charge of this incident shouted, the metal box opened. The member of the organization pointed to a certain direction and gave instructions to the black knight who crawled out from there.
“Kill Isaac Mayer, who has been interfering with our plans at every turn. This time for sure!”
The transformed black knight’s armor briefly glowed, creating an aura that sent him flying to the battlefield where the battle was taking place.
Seeing that, the member of the organization licked his lips in disappointment.
“Hmm… . I would like to retrieve that armor if possible, but it would probably be impossible. what is ok That’s not the only ancient artifact we’ve secured… … huh? pax? where are you going… … hey!”
Not only the executives, but all the members of the organization left behind the call, and Angelica ran away recklessly.
She knew too. That it was already too late to save Low Rekensus and that there was no way in the first place.
‘I still have to go.’
The purpose of life has already faded. Because the intense skepticism was taking away the purpose of life from her.
So Angelica ran. For the first time in my life, I just ran for what I really wanted.
even if the end is death.
‘low!’
Angelica didn’t stop.
—
The form of the monsters of the void itself was not much different from the normal monsters.
“It’s just the way it looks!”
When he swung his aura-bearing sword wide, dozens of monsters were cut down at once. It was an unsatisfactory result. Because it was intended to be cut in hundreds.
It’s awfully strong.
Not only that, but the size was also damn good. Above all, everything is black. It was as if a black shadow had taken shape.
It goes without saying that he is much stronger than ordinary demons. It was a situation where three imperial soldiers had to rush at one monster. This is why other countries can’t stand it.
As I was about to swing my sword, I saw an Imperial Knight who had come within range of my sword attack, quickly drew back the sword and kicked the monster of the void with my foot.
Realizing his mistake, the knight looked at me with a sad face.
“Ah, Isaac!”
“It’s okay, don’t worry and focus on the battle!”
After lashing out at the knight who was expressing his apology, he blew his body again and burrowed into the center of the monsters.
From the moment the battle began, I left the command to the knights and ran amok by myself, pushing the monsters away.
I don’t know if it’s a simple fight, but I’m a savage in tactics, and I’m not the temperament befitting the command itself.
Even when I was in Meyer Kingdom, I left the strategy and command to the staff and fought alone. Oh, of course, that was the operation of the staff.
When the main camp is fighting from the front, if some idiots appear from all sides and launch destructive attacks like crazy, the enemies have no choice but to cause confusion.
“Now that I think about it, how did these kids treat me?”
I wasn’t really complaining, but I thought I’d ask him next time I saw him, so I filled my sword with aura and threw it away.
I don’t know how many times today. Counting. I gave up long ago.
It was good to push the monsters that were clinging to the castle and tearing down the walls, but these guys didn’t want to retreat at all.
Are you going to fight until one side is annihilated? Even the Margrave who came out of the castle and the imperial army led by him were joining, but the problem was that everyone was extremely tired, even if the damage was aside.
My breathing is getting rougher little by little as I work so hard to keep the walls from collapsing and removing them from the castle.
Even if it was a little dangerous, I felt like I had to withdraw my troops, so I tried to look for Paul Brown, who was struggling, but I felt a huge aura flying and looked up at the sky.
“ah.”
is that guy again? I’m starting to get tired of it now.
“it is not so? It’s already the third. Both are equally boring, so let’s put an end to it this time.”
[——–!!!!!!!!!!]
As if responding to my words, a scream came out of Low Rekensus, who had become invisible only as a demonic beast.
