Chapter 641

Episode 641 Egotist (6)

Seeing thousands of troops approaching from afar, the border guards in Celia panicked.

The commander of the garrison saw troops rushing from the territory of the principality and immediately told his soldiers.

“All ready for battle! Tell wizards and archers to climb up the wall!”

“yes!”

The captain of the guard groaned inwardly.

‘I heard that the Leven Mercenary Corps caused a lot of damage to the Duchy… After all, they’re trying to pretend to be Celia.’

Certainly, from their point of view, they deserved to be angry.

However, he didn’t know that he would turn his back on his motherland, so the garrison commander stood firmly guarding the gate.

Approaching right in front of the border, they glanced at the Celia defenders and then passed them by.

Thousands of people passed by with ferocious spirit, but the defenders were at a loss for a moment.

“Stop!”

Despite the garrison commander’s words, the relief army under the command of Hafman’s corps did not stop.

Rather, they ignore the words and line up around them as if they were patrolling.

The thousand chief shouted vigorously.

“Alternate lines!”

Remedy-!

chuck-!

Soldiers armed with plate armor stand in sync.

After that, the seasoned mercenaries faced the front as if they were pressuring the Celia army, so there was nothing as threatening as this for the defenders.

Cheoninjang looked around the crowd and said,

“Switch every hour from the first row!”

“yes!”

“yes!”

Well-trained soldiers and leading knights ride horses.

He didn’t even glance at the dumbfounded defenders of Celia.

They settled in their respective districts and stood as if guarding the border.

* * *

Looking at the savior who is openly vigilant in front of his eyes.

The captain of the defense looked at him with a slightly nervous expression.

‘Is this also retaliation for the work of the Leven mercenaries?’

Not sure yet, but it’s possible.

He briefly raised his hand and made the wizards and archers who were waiting on the wall retreat.

There was nothing good to be stimulated.

Judging by their attitude, it doesn’t seem like they’ve come to war.

Perhaps the current actions are simple threats.

The deputy commander approached and insinuated.

“I didn’t know that the principality would send troops. It would be better to report this matter to the superiors.”

“It’s right to watch and report, but… I don’t know how the situation will develop, so it’s better to contact them in advance.”

“They don’t know when they’ll change. Calling out troops in advance…”

At that, the garrison commander shook his head.

“no. It would be foolish to reveal that it was merely a threat. Until we are instructed, we do not touch it as much as possible.”

From the point of view of the deputy commander, the atmosphere flowing between the Silia defenders and the soldiers of the principality was unusual.

It wouldn’t be strange at all even if a battle broke out right now.

Nevertheless, it was difficult to understand the appearance of the captain defeating wizards, archers, and even foot soldiers.

‘The country has to move too.’

Of course, he wouldn’t do anything that could ignite the kingdom and the principality, but he couldn’t sit still.

The unit commander nodded lightly and left, then disappeared somewhere.

* * *

By the time the confrontation between the borders had lasted for three or four hours.

Recognizing that the time had come, Cheoninjang gave an order.

“Withdraw.”

At that, the centurions moved their soldiers as if they had waited.

I tidy up the tent I had taken out and call in the troops that were patrolling.

Ready to leave, they left the border without any regrets.

as fast as it came.

It was a blink of an eye to leave.

The garrison commander rushed out of the barracks after receiving the report of their departure.

“I don’t know English.”

I don’t know what the hell it came for.

But one thing is certain: the current confrontation will not be the end.

He wouldn’t be the same as Celia, who would think she was threatened with just one confrontation.

Perhaps the next day and the day after that will continue as it is now.

‘Hiding behind the scenes, waiting for us to cross the border.’

He didn’t know if Celia’s soldiers crossed over to the principality, they would use that as an excuse to catch the pod.

That is politics and war.

Even withdrawing may be a simple show.

Questions continued to bite after tail, but the garrison commander decided not to think deeply.

“What should I do?”

When the knight asked, he waved his hand.

“As I said, it is a simple threat. There is no need to be afraid.”

“All right. Anyway, it’s a great army. I heard that you died in the fight against the Leven mercenaries.”

“joy. I wouldn’t have hit those goblins with all my might from the start. It must have been used simply to tire the mercenaries.”

“But there are also rumors that all the goblins dealt with mana.”

“Monsters get mana? It’s hard to believe that a mere goblin or the like can use an aura.”

I nodded in agreement with that opinion, as if it were the same as a knight.

“Well… if that was the case, the Leven mercenaries wouldn’t have been able to return alive and well.”

“Stop talking nonsense and stand guard. You never know when you’ll come back.”

“yes. Do not worry.”

* * *

“This way.”

Following Hongyoung’s guidance, Ray shook off the new model.

“He fled along the shore.”

“I guess I tried to erase as much trace as possible, but…”

She shook her head at the remnants of incense left here and there.

“It is pointless.”

Ray looked around.

It was hidden in the woods, so I couldn’t see the exact destination, but from the direction it was clear that I was heading for Devon.

‘Smart guys.’

They said it was a cuttlefish even if it rotted, so I guess it’s just that I’m taking a seat in the black room.

In addition, he even left artificial traces on trees to avoid being chased while running away, so if it hadn’t been for the tracking scent, he would have been in trouble.

Hongyeong, who hesitated for a moment and looked at her, pursed her lips.

“…thank you.”

“huh?”

“The potion you gave me… It must be holy water bestowed by the Holy Father. Such a precious thing for someone like me…”

Looking at his expression, he was already entering a state of ecstasy beyond gratitude.

“How grateful are you for using that potion?”

“That’s something the Holy Son can say because he doesn’t know. If the auction had been formally held under the Chamber of Commerce, I would have been able to buy at least one small castle.”

“If there are no soldiers to protect it, the castle is useless.”

“…”

“If I had let her die then, I would have regretted it.”

At those words, Hongyoung was even more at a loss.

Turning her head, she spoke softly as if muttering.

“…nearby. You will see it as soon as you leave the forest.”

“It’s gone too far.”

Ray hid his momentum in earnest.

After kicking off the ground and out of the forest, I saw two In-young taking a good rest with a bonfire lit as Hong-yeong had said.

To think that someone else’s territory was laid out to be a catfish and peacefully sleep here.

He came close to them and kicked Dae-joo’s side with his toe.

Dae-joo, who was already resting on his strength and mental strength, frowned at the sudden shock.

“Are you crazy at last? Are you thinking of causing even a cataclysm? huh?”

“Wake up before you get hit.”

It’s a familiar way of speaking.

I barely lifted my heavy eyelids and raised my gaze to see a polite figure standing there.

Ray grinned.

“Is it a familiar face?”

“Huh!”

Dae-ju, who got up at once, moved his legs to widen the distance.

Hana Rei’s actions were a step faster.

Before he could get up, he gently stepped on Dae-joo’s knee, and he screamed in agony as he tried to run away.

“Aagh!”

“It’s not polite to break up without even saying hello after we barely met. Hehehe.”

“Aren’t you afraid of the aftermath?”

“I’m a guy who lives without a back.”

“this guy! Is it okay if the principality disappears! I should have told you that I had a henchman!”

“All henchmen or whatever are dead.”

At those cold words, Dae-ju blinked his eyes.

die?

They were the elite among the elite.

In other words, they are not people who can be easily expressed as ‘dead’ as if they were dying in a guest house on the street.

‘Considering that guy is here, it can be assumed that an ambush is lurking.’

But who?

There is no way you can kill them unless you have a decent amount of troops.

Dae-joo, who continued his thoughts, came up with a handsome man.

he said sighing.

“Hup! It’s Suber’s work!”

“Suber?”

who else is that

I have met many people, but none of them have the name Suber.

As he tilted his head, Daejoo shouted.

“Don’t even think about pretending! I already know that the name of the person who fought me on equal footing is Suber!”

At those words, Ray also noticed.

‘It’s obedience.’

This baby.

It must have been that he introduced himself as ‘Suber’ to Dae-joo because it was embarrassing to name him.

How dare you try to hide the lofty name you have thought out so hard for yourself?

If I go back later, I will be scolded.

Ray gave strength to his feet.

Dae-joo, whose knees were already crushed, couldn’t overcome the pain and let out a drool.

“It’s Subergo Nabal. Tell me where the hostages you have taken are.”

“Idiot, do you think this Jwa will speak even if it means dying? Torture or kill, do as you please.”

“If your exhalation overflows, it becomes poison. Let’s not make each other tired and let’s get over it.”

“The world will soon be dyed in ink. The ground is covered with the blood of creatures, and the heavy air will make it difficult to even breathe. cluck cluck.”

Judging from the fact that he speaks incomprehensible things, it seems that he still deserves to live.

“Hongyoung.”

“yes.”

Hongyoung, who had subdued him by stabbing his sword into the side of Budaeju, who showed a gap, prostrated himself.

“Make him open his mouth until morning comes.”

“…Hongyeong accepts orders.”

When it comes to torture, the receiving committee is another specialty.

just as expected.

She quietly drew her sword and approached me with a nonchalant face.
