by fnovelpia“How can this be… .”
“Keydor!!!”
The surprised Uk called out to Kaidor.
But of course, Kaidor, who fell at my feet, could not respond.
Because I’ve already passed out.
He is crossing the line between life and death.
Even if I squeeze only a few here, I will fall into the afterlife.
Is it because of that?
The Uk army that witnessed this scene stiffened, showing a large gap.
In the meantime, I looked around the battlefield for a moment. There were less than a hundred of my undead army left, and the enemy casualties seemed to be only about 500.
Considering Atrot’s rampage, it seems like a thousand more people were injured, but the number is lower than expected due to the Bytron tribe’s protection.
At most, I gave away a lot of mana.
Didn’t they even have two thousand casualties?
But it’s okay.
Because I caught Kaidor.
From now on, it’s my world.
Making an ice sword.
Slash away.
Wow profit!!~
Suddenly.
Squeak!!
Wow!!!
“… … … !!?”
“Ugh!!… .”
A strong wind cut down dozens of Uk warriors.
Tiring!!
◎︎ Death Aura is activated.
A more powerful curse has been activated.
then.
Fighting.
“Guhuh… .”
A recently dead Uk warrior has been resurrected as a zombie.
“Extreme… Heh, he’s a warlock. A warlock killed a great warrior!!”
A warrior in panic shouts like this.
It will be scary.
Not only is the commander-in-chief dead, but Atrot is still in the sky looking down.
My body gradually becomes sluggish due to the snowstorm.
Exposure to fraud weakens you.
And another scary thing about Lich.
Large-scale battle.
“Arise, you dead.”
Damn it!!
Cut away again. This time too, the person who lost his life rose again as a zombie.
Zombies are boosted in morale and have great resistance to cold. Even if your body becomes weak and you lose the skills you had before, you can never ignore it.
Just like this, kill as many people as possible.
so.
Woe!!-
I swung my sword again.
Several waves of wind swept through the enemy lines.
The more you kill, the more allies you have, and the more allies kill enemies, the more allies you have. From the enemy’s point of view, it would be shocking.
If you swing it like this a few times, it will run away on its own.
“I will not forgive you!!!”
Whoop!!
Bang!~
What?
A Uk warrior with a strong physique quickly rushed forward and struck with his axe.
A heavier impact than expected.
This guy is also strong.
Kang!~
Kyaang!!
“Warriors. I am the great warrior Neldro, so help me recapture Kaidor!!”
“I, the noble warrior Beriad, will help you!!”
“To avenge my brother!!”
The moment you hit a few attacks, several Uk tribes rush in together.
Surprisingly, everything feels powerful. There are more than 10 strong players with 7 stars or higher, whose skills are difficult to estimate.
This is a little dangerous.
Although I can produce 9-star power, it is difficult to deal with them all at once.
Above all, the one who rushed at me first.
Woe!!-
“It doesn’t work!!”
Sigh!!
He doesn’t move even when he unleashes his force. This guy is also a great warrior. He is a man of rank.
Maybe it’s god star?
At least an 8-star intermediate level.
It was easier than I thought. I thought that if I just killed the demi-god, I could use the undead to take care of everything, but my calculations were wrong.
The level of the world itself is different.
7 stars are very precious in Edeline, but not to them.
Approximately one in every thousand soldiers. I don’t know if they are fighting each other like they did in the training camp. It’s impossible for me to deal with them all at once.
They flock to me.
There is no time to take Kaidor hostage.
In other words, I let my guard down.
bang!!
Coogung!!
Sigh!!
“Die!!”
“Keydor’s revenge!!!”
If I block one side, they attack from the other side, while some of them take a detour to occupy my rear.
“It’s the last battle, but we’ll be together!!”
To make matters worse, several 7-star powerhouses emerged from among the Bytron troops.
Of these, it is also 8 stars.
I feel like there is a god-like powerhouse.
Is he the deputy commander of the Bytron tribe?
A combination of warrior and shaman.
All of them were strong, and I spent a lot of money signing an apostolic contract. It is really dangerous if we are surrounded like this.
In the end, he retreated and received the sword strike.
‘Negro. If it’s dangerous, summon me!!’
I can hear the disciple’s urgent thoughts.
Did I unintentionally cause concern?
‘Can not be done. Anyway, I won’t die as long as you are alive. Summoning you is dangerous for both of us, so don’t worry and just watch.’
‘Ugh… okay… … .’
I quickly calmed my student down and looked ahead. Warriors are trying to pass by on both sides to surround me.
Let’s run away first.
cook!!
Kwakwagwak!!
An icy storm advances.
“Ugh!… .”
While they were hesitating, throw an ice stack at Kaidor, who was still hiding.
Sigh!!
Wow!!!
“No!!”
“Protect Kydor!!!”
Tadat!!
Some of the people who were running immediately turned around and threw themselves.
Wow!!!
“Kaaagh!!!”
Crazy guys.
Are you trying to protect me by giving up your life? The guy who already had both arms cut off?
Well, it’s none of my business.
Take a leap while they hesitated.
Tsupot!!
I immediately turned around and ran.
I wasn’t able to finish it, but to recover from having both arms cut off, I would need to recuperate for quite some time even if I used Chimera technology.
There won’t be any disruption.
Rather, it is beneficial to neutralize one 7-star force.
hook!
“Oh!… Ugh!!?”
He picked up Estella, who was watching anxiously from behind, and ran straight to the mountain.
“Catch it!!”
“Never miss it!!!”
Enemies are chasing you.
Some people threw axes, and the Bytrons created an earth barrier and a pulling force, slowing me down.
this… It won’t be easy to run away…
[Wait a second, is this what it looks like? It’s pathetic.]
Damn it!!
Suddenly, a huge wall of ice rose up between me and the enemies, blocking the way. The guy who was throwing ice at me was back.
“Damn it! What is this?”
“Destroy it!!”
Kwakwang!!
nice.
Now is your chance.
Tadadat!!
Enter the forest without stopping.
We escaped the crisis with Artrot’s carry.
*
Somewhere in the forest.
“As expected… The enemies are strong.”
“… okay. I was taking it too lightly. It seems like there are not only demi-gods, but also several god-star and 8-star warriors. I’ll have to be more careful next time.”
Fortunately, the enemy could not chase us this far.
Estella and I sat in the shade of a dense tree and rested.
‘Is the black guy okay?… … .’
I feel the telepathy of my sullen disciple.
For your information, this guy was watching the war all along. There was no problem as the training center was closed due to the aftermath of the war and time was available.
‘I am OK.’
‘… Doesn’t it hurt? I got a little cut earlier.’
‘I just passed by… There were almost no injuries. And as long as you are safe, I am safe. If anything, I feel more hurt by worrying about you.’
‘then… Then… … .’
‘hmm? Is there anything else you want to say?’
‘… … What do you think, Estella?’
‘… … … .’
A random question.
At this moment, I realized.
My disciple is jealous.
Since they fought the war together, he stayed with Estella, and even signed an apostolic contract and moved there himself.
That seemed displeasing.
is it… .
My disciple, you have already reached puberty.
In the past, I wouldn’t have paid this much attention. No, I asked, unsure, even though I knew I wasn’t interested in Estella.
In other words, jealousy blossomed.
It’s really embarrassing at times like this.
But still, disciple.
He will be able to quickly shake off these bad feelings and overcome puberty.
For now, let’s just reassure them.
‘that… .’
‘iced coffee! no. What did I suddenly say… .’
‘Don’t you know even if I don’t say it?’
‘huh?… .’
‘I have no interest in Estella. It was just a helpful relationship.’
‘… really?’
‘Yes.’
‘Phew… No!! I think I said something else for a moment in a tense situation. Don’t worry about what I just said. ‘It’s definitely not a bad idea!!’
Eat.
Stop thinking bad thoughts!! It reminds me of my disciple muttering the same thing.
okay. That’s how you become a disciple.
I smiled slightly and took a breath of fresh air.
It leaked for a moment… .
First, we need to analyze the battle just now.
I learned a lesson from this incident.
We need to change our perspective based on Edeline’s standards. A well-trained army could not destroy a country alone, and it was not a battle that could be easily won by capturing the commander.
To begin with, Edeline is not a developed world. If you have a high-average and well-trained army like the Uk, it will be difficult for you to even become a god.
In other words, in this war, you have to make up your mind and be prepared to wipe out the army.
Edeline’s common sense must be abandoned.
… As I was thinking this, a translucent atoll appeared in front of my nose.
[Have you realized it now? Even though you have become stronger, you are still a frog in the well.]
[I won’t make the same mistake next time.]
[joy. You might have died if it weren’t for me. Don’t you have anything to say to me!]
[…] … … Thank you.]
[Phm… That’s obvious. Try to imitate me, who is like the sun and the sea.]
[…] … … .]
Art Lot.
Fortunately, this guy doesn’t ignore me and saves me when I’m in danger.
I guess I’ll have to listen to some nagging for a while.
It’s true that I got help.
Fortunately, it pays for the food.
“Now… What are you going to do?”
Estella asked worriedly. There was a will in his eyes to help in any way he could, as he was in the same boat as me.
“The goal remains the same. We will eat away at the army little by little until they return.”
“Is there a way?”
“Well. Kaidor was neutralized, but no matter how much I do, I can’t hastily attack the enemy’s main force… … Unless there is an undead army.”
“That means… .”
“I will use the corpses of the imperial soldiers.”
“Yes?… … .”
“There were a lot of corpses of imperial soldiers scattered all over the place.”
“Well, that’s not possible!! It’s an insult to the deceased!!”
“I said I would use it, so what should I do?”
“Ugh… … .”
“No, is there another way? Besides them, there are significant invasion forces spread throughout this country. If they were to be driven out as living soldiers, much greater damage would be incurred than now. Is that what you want?”
“Ah… no… … .”
He’s a decent guy, but he still lacks a bit of realistic thinking.
In a situation where you have to grasp at straws, if you don’t do what you need to do because you are swayed by the ethics of the deceased’s humiliation and all, you will inevitably cause greater damage.
A minimum level of ethics is necessary in war, but it is a nuisance to worry about the dead when there is no room for it.
“The living are more important than the dead. You remember that.”
“… yes. My thoughts were short.”
“As expected, you are quick to agree.”
“… … Because it’s for the people. If I can get my hands dirty and save everyone, I’m willing to do it.”
“But… What do you keep saying is dirty? It sounds like I’m being mean. I don’t need to ask for you. So either change your thoughts or be careful about what you say and do.”
“Sorry, sorry!”
Estella is now my apostle.
As the owner, I need to correct my values.
‘Negro. I think it would be best to use the undead in places where there are no people! When the people of the empire see that, they might think of the Negro as another scourge.’
Look!
Doesn’t the disciple throw away his ethics and give this kind of realistic advice?
‘And actually, I don’t like it when black people deal with the undead. But since it is absolutely necessary… When the war is over, will we be able to gather all the corpses in one place and have a funeral?’
correction.
Realistic and just values coexist. It’s so special that I don’t know if I would have petted it if I were next to it.
If that’s the case.
“We will refrain as much as possible in front of the people of the empire, but once the war is over, we will gather the bodies in one place and hold a funeral. That is, if recovery is possible.”
“Ah. Thank you!!”
Now is the time to reveal a new operation.
But suddenly, Estella seemed to have remembered something and made a request to me.
“I… Can I go to the mountains for a while? The soldier who followed me and the Marquis Cardin will run away and hide somewhere in the mountains.”
I want to rescue the survivors.
What a nuisance.
“I think it will be at least half a day.”
“Ugh… … .”
“What good does it do for me?”
“… … The Imperial forces will regroup. We will also inform other countries of the current situation and obtain support. We will fight together too!!”
“Then it would be better to move separately. Because I have to use the undead.”
“Ah… Can’t you move with us? With your help, our imperial army will be able to work hard and defeat the invading army!!”
“Do you think that is the best way?”
“… … No.”
“It is right for you and I to separate. You gather the imperial army and shake the enemy. I will be separately repelling the invading army.”
“… yes.
The guy became wrinkled.
However, Estella is a princess knight who receives a lot of trust from the people of the empire. It is more advantageous to use them as a pillar of unity than to take them with you.
If he can rally the imperial army and shake down the invasion force, it will be the icing on the cake.
Now is the time to focus on each person’s role.
But before that… .
“Let me help you a little.”
“Yes?”
We decided to hang out for a while.
At that moment, the invasion force is retreating from the mountain and into the city. It seems that they chose to retreat rather than take hostages, perhaps because of Kaidor’s fatal wounds.
If so, there will be no interruption.
Sigh~
“Huh?… Suddenly what.”
I picked up Estella’s back armor and flew high with flight magic.
Shoo!!
“Ugh!!”
Afterwards, the sound spreads widely across the mountain.
[I am the one who helped Princess Estella drive out the invading army from the mountain. All hidden imperial troops and residents must gather below where I am floating.]
“Ah! Everyone listen!!! It’s safe here now. If you can hear me, please come back together!!”
The guy who sensed my intention also helped out.
It doesn’t feel very dignified to be held and hung by one hand… If the people of the empire follow Estella, they will eventually come together.
In other words, the regrouping of the imperial army.
After landing on the ground.
We waited for survivors at the entrance of the mountain.
How long would it have survived?
What will happen to the empire in the future?
Can destruction be avoided?
It probably depends on Estella.
For some reason, I hope it goes well. It’s rare to see such character and talent. He might lead the empire to peace.
That is, if we finish this war well.
