The sun rises and shines bright around you as the Pwarrin fades.
After the darkness disappeared, it was hard to describe the more vivid condition of the Kreanese expedition.
Until the day before, the number of soldiers that had surpassed 20,000 decreased to 15,000.
In addition, at least three thousand people suffered various injuries ranging from minor injuries to serious injuries that were difficult to move their bodies.
“Come on! It's been hard. Let's move! ”
“Move all the bodies to the perimeter! Because we decided to burn it all at once! ”
“Khh! Malian! I will avenge you! ”
The Krean soldiers look sad and gather the corpses of their fallen comrades to one place.
During the midnight raid, they were also very tired, but they had to quickly repair the damage for the next war.
Only then will I be able to avenge my colleagues on those vile and cruel Soldiers of Polkan Castle.
And there was a boy who watched the Krean soldiers stagger a little further down the hill.

“Uncle Jeff...”
You stare at the shabby collar on your right hand.
The only trace of Jeff Calais left in a sudden explosion.
Where did I go wrong?
Ever since I came across a nameless castle that doesn't have anything to do with me and fought Horam's Terrion?
Or since you weren't aware of your surroundings and using toys?
Because I'd be obsessed with not being in trouble if I didn't warn you it was dangerous?
Knng.
Blood pours down from your fist with painful pain.
But what's more painful now is that I couldn't save Jeff right in front of me.
“At least if I had forced you into subspace when I found you...”
Now that I think about it, I suddenly have a useless idea in my head that is not helpful at all.
I could have saved you if I had, but I wouldn't have a problem with that.
I'm pretty sure I can't come up with a way to bring Jeff back from the dead.
I closed my eyes for a moment and firmly grasped the collar left by Jeff.
“..... ”
It reminds me of the man who saved me many times in my head.
The Goblin who saved me when he threw his sword at me.
The look of the man who taught me the art of sword for the first time.
Whenever I remembered saddened memories, my heart thumped and shook.
Like why I couldn't save Jeff.
It's all because of your stupid tenacious personality.
“... revenge. Yes, we must avenge him. Jeff's revenge. ”
I thought of a vengeance to express my burning anger towards me.
I couldn't stand the thought of my anger burning myself if I didn't stay still.
I turned my gaze from Jeff's collar and looked at Polkan Castle.
“Lord Polkan. ”
The Krian Expedition is far from serious.
The faces of all the soldiers standing on the walls were bright, and they were smiling at the Krean soldiers.
It is absurd to smile when someone is chewing sorrow and revenge.
This is what war is all about.
Because if you don't, you're gonna have to die.
War is about smiling if an ally beheads an enemy, and grieving if an enemy beheads an ally.
I got up from my seat, putting Jeff's cloak back in my heart.
“There's nothing wrong with the Archian soldiers. In order to survive and because of orders. But Lord Polkan... he must be killed. ”
The intuitive poison fills your eyes and soaks red.
Not enough to calm down without killing Lord Polcan myself right now.
As you make your way towards Polkan Castle, you feel a strong Mana surge behind you.
Wiiiing!
“... Teleport? ”
A bit familiar with teleport magic now.
What's a little bit curious is that we can move around in that way without drawing a countermagic.
A moment later, the magic circle is complete and an old man who had seen it somewhere walks out.
“Klael, do you remember me, Kaiyan? ”
“... Adolf of the Lamperion family? ”
I remember hearing his voice.
He's the horse tower owner of Manislan who drew provocative energy from the Lucaba Merchant Guild.
“That's right! Luckily you remembered. ”
“How do you know my name? I don't remember telling you. ”
“What does it matter? Even more so... you have a very attractive face. Did something happen? ”
Unlike when Adolf first met, he asked me with a gentle expression, but I was annoyed at the thought of interrupting what I had to do.
“It's not for old people to care about. Why did you come to see me? I thought you and I had nothing to do with it. ”
“Haha, scary friend. Go ahead! I'll explain everything. ”
“What kind of nonsense are you talking about just showing up? ”
Normally, you'd be wondering why someone with nothing to do with teleport magic came to me.
Vengeance is all I have left in my head.
“Kaiyan, I know you're embarrassed that I showed up so suddenly. But we don't have much time, so let's go! ”
“I don't know why you're doing this, but I don't want you bothering me anymore. ”
You look at Adolf once with your red eyes and walk towards Polkan Castle without a doubt.
“You are in a very dangerous situation. And I want to help you! Please believe me for once! ”
You stop walking in the voice of Adolf screaming from behind.
I could have been mistaken by his voice, but I felt it.
“If you suddenly show up and say that, do I have to believe you? And I've always lived in dangerous situations. ”
As I was about to move my feet waving my hands as if I had nothing more to say, Adolf rushed over and grabbed my shoulder.
“I know! You just killed Horam Terrian, a six-circle wizard in Cebrian Castle? ”
“... how do you know that? Were you watching me? ”
I didn't tell her that in case she was worried, either.
How could you not only name him, but the fact that I killed him?
“No! He's one of our watchers. I watched you kill Horam by accident while watching him. ”
“Right. If you weren't spying on me, that's fine. Don't interrupt me anymore. I have work to do. ”
“Huh... I don't know about you, but some very dangerous people are after you. So please come with me. ”
Adaolf reminds me of an Astian group that used to belong to Horam Terrier.
Well, he killed the Wizard of the Six Circles, so maybe the gang's looking for me, too.
However, I passed Adolf with a stuffy look on my face without stopping.
“My work is my own. ”
“Ugh... where are you really... going? ”
“I'm going to Polkan Castle. To kill Lord Polkan. ”
I didn't have to answer Adolf's question.
Nevertheless, I told him because I wanted to share my anger with the world at all.
“Polkan Castle? Then come with me! ”
“If you're going to interrupt...”
“No! I had business with Polkan Castle, too! Lord Polkan, you have nothing to do with me. Do as you will. ”
“Then we'll go our separate ways. ”
“Haha, are you going to leave this old man alone? Come with me.”
I naturally stared at Adolf walking next to me and turned my gaze back to Polkan Castle.
Why are you suddenly doing this to me? A human being called the Horse Master of a country.
Things got more complicated in my head, but I got rid of the other ideas, thinking about Jeff's revenge.
What matters now is not the Astia organization, nor Adolf. The life of Lord Polkan.
*

“How are you? Don't you think you're glad to be here? ”
“... I see. ”
With the help of Adolf, you can easily get into the center of the heavily guarded Polkan Castle.
As a high magician, he easily deceived the eyes of the knights and soldiers, and sealed off the trap magic and notification magic that had been set throughout the castle.
It's a little different from the way I used to move, believing in my outstanding physical ability and senses.
“I don't know why you're helping me, but do what the old man has to do. I'm going to see Lord Polkan. ”
“Haha... He's more ruthless than he looks. Then I'll take care of my business quickly and come back to you. ”
“Suit yourself. ”
“Hey! Are you thinking of leaving? ”
After lowering your small head to Adolf, you make your way to the mansion in front of you.
Even if you make a fuss now that you're in the center of the castle, you won't have to worry about innocent regular soldiers dying.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the mansion, the four knights guarding the mansion approached with a suspicious look.
“Hmmm? You don't look like a servant... You even have a sword, do you? Who are you?”
“What floor is Lord Polkan on? Is it at the top?”
“What? You bastard! I can't believe you're calling the Lord so lightly! Get him now! ”
The knight in the front frowns and shouts, and the three knights in the back draw their swords and approach.
Like I'm no threat at all.
“Where the hell did this guy come from? ”
“I can't believe you let these lunatics in here. I'm going to have to kick their asses. ”
“Let's put him in jail first. ”
The first one who approached me reached out for my neck and reached out for my right hand with nothing in it.
Qajik!
“Big... huff...”
With a firm plate armor, the knight with a pierced chest looks at me with unbelievable eyes.
“I'm sorry, but I have no intention of saving the knight who stands in my way. ”
“Son of a bitch! Cobian!! Kill him now! ”
“Die!! ”
The three knights, who were checking things out for a moment, swiftly swing their swords from all sides.
Three swords falling fiercely at my head with the intention of killing me.
I slowly pulled my hand out of the chest of a knight named Cobian who fell to the ground in contrast to him and swinged it horizontally.
Sneak angle
“Grrrgh...”
“Oh, my...”
The knights' swords have stopped with palm distance above my head. And the three knights slowly fell to the ground vomiting blood with the red line around their necks.
You glance at them, and now you open the door to the mansion where no one is guarding you.
Boom. Boom.
“Who, who... blood? Hiic!”
As I entered the mansion, the servant who was walking down the hall looked curiously, and saw the blood falling from my right hand to the ground, I spit out a surprised voice.
“I didn't mean to hurt you. Where is Lord Polkan? ”
“Yes? Oh, the Lord... wh-what's going on? And where are all the knights? I have to clean up...”
I approached the scoundrel, avoiding my eyes.
“Where is Lord Polkan?" ”
“Y-you have to explain... what's going on...”
You raise your right hand in blood to point back at the snarling servant's behavior.
“Ki, the knights...! ”
“Let me ask you again. Where is Lord Polkan? ”
“Sa, she's having dinner with the goblins in a four-story restaurant...”
“I understand.”
I tapped the shoulder of the shivering servant and moved to the middle staircase.
“You've been free to eat. ”
As I spread my senses widely, I felt tens of people's energies in the quadrant that the acolyte spoke of.
Ten knights with minimum intermediate express, fifteen minor express knights, and four suspected wizards.
It's overwhelming.
The closer you get to Lord Polcan, the angrier he gets.
If he had worked a little late, Jeff wouldn't be dead.
Why did I have to do that at that moment?
Every time I went up the stairs, I saw the servants who were surprised to see me, and I got to the fourth floor.
“Hmm? Who is that? ”
“I've never seen... blood? ”
At the end of the passageway, 15 lesser express knights stand guard at the fancy door.
They stared at me for a moment, looking at the blood on my hands, and their faces hardened.
Déyenne!
Urgent bells ringing in the mansion at that moment.
“Emergency? Trespassers! Catch him! ”
“What are you guys doing guarding the first floor? ”
You draw your sword from the scabbard and draw it toward the approaching knights.
They are not innocent soldiers, but knights under Lord Polkan's command.
“For Jeff and for myself. ”
The poison that sank for a moment stirred my instincts, shaking like crazy.
Kill them brutally and let their anger go.
“I'll kill them all. ”
And I didn't deny that instinct.
The sun rises and shines bright around you as the Pwarrin fades.
After the darkness disappeared, it was hard to describe the more vivid condition of the Kreanese expedition.
Until the day before, the number of soldiers that had surpassed 20,000 decreased to 15,000.
