A mature warrior does not let down his guard easily.

Therefore, in order to create a loophole, we must go against common sense and touch the area of ignorance rather than carelessness.

Until now, the only way to use a lightsaber as a blunt weapon was to hold it in reverse and crush it with an axe.

If you go one step further, it becomes a clear sword technique, holding the blade and striking it with the handle. Many people misunderstand, but since you use a sword, it is first of all swordsmanship.

The weight of the blade, which is made entirely of metal, is considerable. In order to balance the sword’s center of gravity, the weight of the handle must naturally be added.

I don’t know who first came up with this technique, but I do know that he is the type of person who dips Jajangmyeon in sauce.

” Sir, is it possible? ”

“If there are two, I will take care of them for now, and keep the rest in check.”

“Yes, good luck.”

“May God take pity on us.”

I took a seat and quickly looked at what the person in front of me was doing. Fortunately, they weren’t too wary of my actions.

A slight pull on the hand seemed like a good way to yell right away. One hand was placed on the surface of the sword and he was moving the tip of the sword to gauge the appropriate position.

I can see the chinks in the armor and my head is filled with thoughts of stabbing through them.

In the meantime, you’re probably just trying to get over what you’re going to get hit with your tenacity. Such a response was natural if one’s entire body was surrounded by holy relics.

Therefore, it was a method that could only be used now, at this moment when it could induce one to let down one’s guard.

It was kind of a stereotype. I think it would be better to buy a mace made of holy relics, but who would pour blessings into the handle?

It is right for a rational person to act that way. However, as with other things in the world, exceptions exist everywhere.

In the first place, there were not many people who could afford the luxury of doubling the price and maintenance costs.

It is something that only a rich and vain nobleman, a wizard with unique tastes and outstanding skills, and a knight who takes a saintly woman with him would have.

“Come!”

An exciting cheer was heard.

Yes, you are still under that illusion.

As I held the blade tightly, light began to leak out of the handle.

The pommel decorating the end sparkled brightly as if it was about to explode. It was a sign that powerful magic was present.

The eyes of the opponent visible through the helmet widened slightly. Small words leaked out through the gap.

“… Wait.”

Wait a minute. Anyway, even if I tell you, you won’t wait.

Based on long experience, it seems like he quickly came to the idea that if he doesn’t stop it, it will end like this.

However, at the point when you are already ready to attack, trying to defend yourself will be of no use.

“Fuck it, whatever happens happens!”

Contrary to what he said just before, his actions were resolute. Boldly giving up on defense, the sword was fired towards the gap in the armor that was probably created while moving.

However, I was a little faster.

“You unholy one!”

– Quad deuk!

What can break the magic that has already been cast is stronger physical power and magic.

The divine power within it shattered the protective spell cast by someone who was probably an excellent wizard.

His armor, which had not been completely cut when scratched with a blade, was now badly dented.

The sword road, which had been extending straight, shook. Although it reached me without losing speed, it eventually grazed the armor at an angle and left no trace on it.

-dump

“What… … .”

And due to the unfiltered shock, the knight’s new model collapsed as if he had just stretched out his hand.

The action isn’t over yet. He swung the weightless handle for a long time as if throwing a catapult at his comrade who was already preparing to defend himself.

However, even if it is a battle between swords, no matter how strong it is, a sword cannot block a blunt object loaded with weight.

With a crunch, the sword that hit the handle directly folded at a right angle, following the path I swung. The hand that was supposed to be holding on tightly, trying not to let go, immediately followed suit.

Immediately after, his weapon rolled on the ground with a painful scream.

“Aaaaa!!”

-Changerang!

“What are you guys looking at blankly! This is a battlefield, come to your senses!”

In the silence that fell for a moment even in the chaotic battlefield, the first to speak was a knight wearing the emperor’s mark. Perhaps it means that he is the representative of these knights.

At the same time, his sword flew towards me. He blocked the attack by supporting the blade with his hand, just as he was swinging the lightsaber.

A clear sound was heard and white flames, signifying a collision between magic, briefly flew out.

*****

There is one saying that remains as the greatest compliment to those who fight regardless of time and place.

It is a great compliment disguised as a criticism, saying that you fight so well.

In that sense, in the opinion of Arnold, Rudolph’s knight, it is the violence of numbers that makes him feel this most keenly.

It is not for nothing that people say that there is no business in front of numbers.

In the end, a person has two hands, and even if you give in a hundred times and perform a trick like standing with one foot and kicking like a flamingo, you have three.

So attack fiercely and take both hands.

And if you deliberately show an opportunity and take a hit with your body, your colleague will take advantage of that moment and attack you.

I was waiting with that thought in mind, but what came back was a piece of armor that said, “Wagzak,” and crumbled just as I swung it.

Arnold, who had taken a step forward, stopped.

“What… … .”

If a car that is expecting a light jab is struck by a moonlight, someone’s thoughts will inevitably stop for a moment.

With the sound of the middle ear collapsing, the two knights bounced down the hill.

Two of the five knights personally sent by the emperor were already incapable of combat.

Judging from the twitching of his hands and feet, it seemed like he was still alive, but with his wrists bent and the unconscious person unable to help him right away.

And we couldn’t add more people here who wouldn’t be helpful.

“What are you guys looking at blankly! This is a battlefield, come to your senses!”

It was an order from His Majesty the Emperor. In accordance with the duty imposed on me, I had to maintain the universal principle that I would not step down from this position.

I shouldn’t have given that guy a chance to catch his breath. We must make the most of the advantage of large numbers.

“Where are you looking! It’s not over yet!”

He shouted and swung his sword, drawing attention to the emperor.

The horrifying sound of scraping metal echoed inside the helmet. And that noise, which was annoying every time I heard it, instead of getting smaller, got louder.

His swords clashed together, a sword with a green glow that was clearly visible even in this daylight.

It was climbing slowly like a snake, tightly touching my sword.

‘… Are you really going to make me lose my weapon like this?’

The part where the sword touched gradually moved upward. If this continues, you will lose your power and lose your weapon.

I bit my lip tightly and tried to apply force in the same direction to block his intention, but this time the part that touched came down.

The handle flashed eerily before my eyes, and it came towards my face. If you press it like this, the pommel will be stuck on your face.

Arnold thought to himself as the situation turned out to be neither of these things.

‘You make fighting really dirty.’

They give you only two shitty choices and force you to choose one.

In the end, Arnold made the choice to postpone the immediate pain until later.

The point where the swords made contact rose again, and Raven soon pressed down gently on it. Even though it did not apply much force, the sword, which rotated widely like a lever, slipped out of its owner’s hand.

However, even if the immediate crisis has been averted, the essential threat does not disappear.

– Quad deuk!

“ Click … !”

The future hasn’t changed much. Since he had given up the means to block, he would have had to defend himself with his arms, but after being struck by the handle of the lightsaber he swung, Arnold took a few steps back.

And chin.

Someone supported me from behind.

Because I was so focused on him, there was one thing I had forgotten.

He didn’t come here alone. Apparently, other knights and servants followed behind him.

The three pairs of hands holding my back all had different owners. As I turned my head heavily, a dagger appeared in the corner of my vision.

Sensing the future, he let out a low curse.

“Nimi… … .”

“Move! Hold on tight!”

“Article Nauri, please stay still for a little while. I only have three strong powers!”

And then I turned my head forward, and the last thing I saw in the world was what I saw.

Raven followed suit, swinging the vicious sword like a blunt weapon at the other two knights.

*****

I turned my head when I saw the remaining two knights being held by the hand of the friendly knight who was with the squire.

Whether they lived or died didn’t really matter anymore. Because I couldn’t take it as loot or hostage anyway.

“You guys can handle the rest, right?”

“That’s right!”

“Then let me go first.”

“Where do you mean?”

“Well, isn’t it obvious.”

There are no remaining articles.

Only Rudolph remains on top of that hill.

And today, I had to punish him here and now.

Thanks to all the fun I’ve had on getting here, I can’t expect that a quick slash with a sword that has the Tetanus enchantment will kill me right away.

Whether genuine or counterfeit, if he were the emperor, wouldn’t he be treated by the best priests? As long as magic exists, it should definitely get things done.

“Soldiers are slowly joining us. Let’s kill it quickly and return.”

Now, it’s almost done.

All that was left to do was to ensure that Heinrich did not suddenly die during the battle.

Since authority and life are the most important thing, I can run away if necessary, but I wonder if I can’t even do this simple task.

*****

Heinrich looked at the battlefield. There were enemies everywhere, and our troops were outnumbered.

At this point, even if an outsider were placed in this position, one would be able to tell that he or she would be pushed out.

So far, I have endured three days and nights in a snowy field, almost been killed by bandits, and the number of assassination and kidnapping attempts I can’t count on two hands.

I thought I could smell the smell of death. He knew better than anyone else here that he was now approaching the threshold of death in real time.

Nevertheless, Heinrich resolutely stood his ground.

It was not a solemn attitude, as if he wanted to face his end with his army, just as a captain faces his end with his ship. He also knew that his life was precious.

So, I had no choice but to say that was the reason I stayed here.

“What about the legs?”

“Almost completed.”

This is because the only escape route across the river was taken over by people from nearby villages.
