Book 6-1.2
Yulian shouted out loud like a wild animal as he endlessly swung the two greatswords in his hands. Each time he swung his sword, two to three of the enemy soldiers were killed, automatically opening up a path in front of him.
At the end of that path was Master Spotch.
Spotch could intuitively feel it as well. He could tell that the enemy’s formation was going through a big change.
“I will kill you and obliterate everyone who came with you.”
Yulian lifted up the greatsword in his left hand as he pointed toward Spotch and shouted.
“Hmph, apparently even barbarians ca speak the language of the continent.”
Spotch snorted as he started to walk over as well.
The two men’s auras started to shoot toward each other.
Both of them clenched their fists strongly as they stood up straight to not give each other any openings.
“Oowoooooooo~!”
“Yaaaaaaaaaap~!”
The two commanders shouted once they felt like they were close enough to each other and started to quickly run toward each other.
Yulian’s ki and Spotch’s mana were wrapped around their individual weapons as they clashed.
“I will kill you to console the souls of the dead warriors!”
“I will teach you that you should just play with the sand in your puny desert.”
Spotch was a sword master. In addition, he was a knight among knights.
He had a mental fortitude as high as his strength, and normally, he was a knight who was focused on being respectful to everyone. However, for some reason, he could not be that way right now.
He clashed his sword against someone else without even revealing his identity.
But Spotch’s mind was only full of the thought of defeating Yulian that he could not pay attention to anything else.
Boooooooooom!
Another loud thunderous noise rang out as the two men’s battle became more intense. Both Pareia’s warriors and the Empire’s soldiers could not even turn to look toward the two men’s battle.
The two men’s battle would be what you would call fierce.
Spotch wildly swung his sword to pressure Yulian back, but Yulian was able to defend well against Spotch’s attack.
- You must not kill him.
Yulian thought about parrying Spotch’s attack and slicing his neck off. Spotch was only at about Thrint’s level of skill. However, he remembered Runa’s words and just barely managed to make this sword miss.
‘What was that?’
Spotch felt a sudden fear before it suddenly disappeared. He stopped his attack for a moment and looked toward Yulian.
“Huff … huff…”
Yulian was sweating a lot and having a hard time breathing. Yulian was having quite the trouble forcing himself to sweat.
Spotch felt like something was weird, but he would have found the thought of losing to that barbarian to be even weirder. He then started to attack Yulian once more.
Yulian slowly weakened his attack like someone who was running out of stamina, before retreating as if he could not take anymore. He then shouted toward his warriors.
“Retreat! All units retreat!”
The lead warriors who had already made up their resolves led their warriors to retreat, making their formation look a bit weak as they moved.
Spotch started to think while looking at the retreating Pareia’s warriors.
‘What an amazing bastard. If we cannot catch him this time …I may not be able to move to the front lines.”
Spotch believed that he was right. For someone to fight him, one of the continent’s highest ranking masters, almost evenly, the enemy’s level was definitely at the master level. As long as a master has shown up, there would be too much damage if another master did not face off against him.
He could finally start to figure out why the Fedore region fell so easily. The enemy, no, at least the enemy commander, had enough abilities to make that happen.
“Marquis-nim.”
At that moment, Knight Pront and Knight Asus who had gone to scout the sides returned.
“How did it go?”
Spotch quickly asked.
“We ran quite a bit to the left but did not see any hidden enemies.”
“We did the same to the right but there were no signs of the enemy either.”
Spotch thought for a moment about the two knights’ reports before calling over the knights and leaders to give his command.
“Infantry move in the center while the cavalry spreads out to the left and right. We will chase after the enemy. I do not mind if we move slower; make sure that your formation stays tight as we move.”
The SIlence Empire’s army started to move forward at Spotch’s command.
I don’t know whether it is because they kept winning or it is because they are not trained properly, but the enemy has no order as retreat. That means that we cannot miss this opportunity.’
Marquis Spotch’s eyes started to sparkle as he watched the backs of the retreating Pareia warriors.
“I’m relieved.”
“The enemy has enough abilities to do that.”
Yulian gave his command once Runa responded.
“All units, retreat without even looking back. Lead warriors, pay special attention to your formations.”
A chase on the wide plains started with Pareia’s warriors being chased by the Silence Empire’s military.
It was not that difficult to remain hiding in the middle of the plains. It was possible because they were not a large army; there were only thirty of them.
“The scouts have returned to the main unit.”
As one of the Red Storm members with the greatest eyesight notified them, Haisha turned his head toward the enemy’s main unit before quietly answering.
“Not yet. We need to at least wait until the main unit gets far away from here. Let’s plan on starting in four hours.”
The Red STorm warriors nodded their heads as they leisurely laid back down.
“Make sure to save your stamina. Today will be a long and even longer day.”
Even without Shubeon mentioning it, everyone had already taken out their dried meat and started to eat. They were starting to prepare for the upcoming events of the day.
“Violet-nim, please eat some of this.”
As Haisha offered Violet some meat, Violet started to smile as she responded.
“Thank you. Unfortunately, I am not allowed to eat anything right now.”
“Ah! Yes.”
Haisha retrieved his outstretched hand with an embarrassed expression before sitting back down. Violet looked toward the warriors and started to speak.
“All of you truly are amazing warriors. This Violet, will trust all of you and do everything I can to help.”
“There is no need to do that. We will quickly crush all of the enemies. Violet-nim can just sit back and watch.”
As Shubeon smiled and answered, Violet started to smile as well.
“Hohoho, fine then. I will sing the song of courage for everyone except Shubeon-nim.”
“Uh uh … that was not what I meant ……”
“Pfft.”
“Hahaha.”
The warriors and Violet all started to laugh to lessen their anxiety. Even though the speech was dull and boring.
“Anyways, I really wonder how the counts who are knights of the continent could fight wearing these heavy armors.”
One of the warriors lifted up their arms while starting to speak. The sunlight that bounced off the iron plates made the armor look cool. They had gathered these after the last battle. Originally, they were planning on melting it all to make weapons, but they had brought it from the rear just for this strategy.
All of them were the highest quality because they were originally worn by the Fedore region’s knights. But to the Red Storm warriors, it was just too much and too heavy.
“In return, it is pretty useful when you think about a charging cavalry. It should be able to handle a stray arrow or a weak attack.”
“That is not our fighting style. The enemy will not be able to even get near us.”
Haisha interjected into the warriors’ conversation.
“You can individually decide how to best use the armor once we enter the gate. But in my opinion, it would probably be better to have it on because we will have arrows pouring on us this time. It might be straining, but it will help us not have to pay attention to the trivial things.”
“But do we even need to worry about the arrows with Violet-nim here?”
The reason Violet was involved with this battle was so that she could use her incantations to block off the arrows and increase the chances of the Red Storm warriors’ survival and their success.
She won’t be able to obstruct the archers too much from a far distance, but once they enter the gate, she should be able to easily destroy the archers’ bows.
“It might feel weird, but put it on. This time, it is not a battle where we are charging forward on our pirmas or horses. Even we cannot defend against all of these arrows. In addition, must Violet-nim use her power to kill people? It is better if we can do all the killing if possible.”
As Thrint stoically answered from the side, none of the warriors could say anything else.
“I wish to reduce the burdens on your shoulder in any way I can, so please fight in your most confident form. Just remember that I should be able to buy you some time to at least catch your breath.”
All of the warriors decided to put the armor on after hearing Violet’s words. To be honest, this much weight did not put much strain on them anyways.
It was just that their movement was a bit restricted while wearing it, but the goal of this mission was destroying the device that moves the gate’s entrance and holding on until the Glow arrived. They didn’t need any specific strategy for it.
Silence filled the area. Even these warriors who were said to not have any fear did have some fear deep inside their hearts.
They knew that it really would be a long, long day……
They all had the fear that all of them really may die today.
But they still had to do it. They were the only ones who could do it.
While everyone was preparing to do their best, the sun started to set over the plains. Around three hours must have passed from earlier.
“It is time to move.”
Once Haisha got up and informed them, all of them got up and got on their horses.
“I believe all of you do not have any doubts either. As long as we persist, the Glow will come.”
All of them had confident expressions on their faces after Haisha’s words.
“We are the Red Storm. Let’s show our strength to that arrogant bastard Runa!”
“Oowooooo!”
The Red Storm ignited their courage, even forgetting that Violet was beside them.
“Time to go!”
“Oowoooo!”
“We will persist!”
“Oowoooo!”
“Let’s go! Let’s show them who we are!”
The Red Storm warriors all started to move their horses forward.
