Common Sense of a Warrior

The next morning, when the scouts returned, it was unusual and quiet after hitting with the exuberance that night.

Everyone has a calm but strong light in their eyes.

Quiet tension dominated the place, similar to the cold breeze that a refreshing morning deserved.

"Good morning, Master Merlis"

I was just finishing my duties, and I spoke to Lady Merlis.

"Good morning, Mr. Schrey"

Merlis, who had seeped a sharp sense of tension out of him long after leaving Wang Du, is wearing a terribly calm atmosphere today.

"Shall we do our best today"

To my words, Lady Merlis laughed a little couscous.

"'Even today'.... Yep, right. Shall we do our best?"

Turning back on his heels, Master Merlis speaks to the face of the escort.

It's like sparing a conversation with everyone.

And to engrave that memory into itself.

Lightly and consistently, and everyone aligns before Merlis-sama.

"... I'm proud to be able to fight with you"

To the sight of everyone gathered, Lady Merlis groaned with a bitter laugh for a moment.

But the next moment, the grin disappeared.

"All, go on later"

It's like saying you don't need to be inspired or anything, but she just tells you that.

Strangely enough, however, the morale of the convoys was burning quietly with just so many words.

Run the horse, as follows Master Merlis.

And we were reaching the meadows to stop the enemy from progressing.

I lurk in the side woods with Master Merlis.

Then he lurked his breath and erased the signs, quietly just waiting for that time.

Zaa...... and the sound of grass rubbing together with the wind.

The scent of fresh greenery stirred his nose, which had calmed his mind.

Eventually, the sound of the horse's foot reaches his ear slightly.

Many of its sounds were from afar, gradually approaching.

Tensions run to the crew of the lurking escort.

Suddenly, Master Merlis opened his eyes that had been closed until then.

There are no words.

It's just that she ran out quietly on the horse.

After that, the escorts, starting with me, will follow.

In front of a mighty enemy, there is no fear in anyone's eyes.

However, those eyes only showed Merlis-sama moving forcefully forward.

Master Merlis paves the way with his sword before the enemy notices them emerge from the side and responds.

Quiet, and light sword trajectory.

It hunts for the lives of its enemies because of its definite power.

Fuwali, whenever the wind emanated from Fuwali and her sword, the world stained red with the smell of a raw odor.

Just pale, central... she runs for the enemy commander.

It is as if Shura were as prestigious as a majesty. Its backs and battles are dependable, and the trajectory of a sword that surely hunts for a man's life as if he were a reaper is horrible while on his side.

But the escort's crew didn't stop everyone from running, no matter how profound they were.

As it gradually progresses, the casualties of the convoys increase.

Some of them went down.

Still, they don't stop.

I just believe in Master Merlis and run for the enemy commander.

And the convoy made a small sacrifice to finally get to the person surrounded by commander-like escorts.

"Ji... woman?

A skinny man in the center squeaks as if surprised by how Merlis-like he is in the lead.

"... seen as this group of commanders. Adult, this sword will rust, but good."

Say so quickly, or she was already rushing out.

"Master Cordis! Please run!

Between her and a commander-like man like that, the escorts interrupt.

"Out of the way."

She slashed them under one sword.

And under the man, she goes without hesitation.

"Ah... oh..."

The man seemed unable to move with his legs clasped to the horror of her impending death.

She relentlessly slashes and lays low such a man.

And the man slowly fell off the horse and fell.

The sound of him falling to the ground sounds more or less on the spot.

"Nah... why!

He still screamed as he bled from his body and dyed the ground red.

That voice is on the battlefield and never loud. Then everyone stops moving to that sad cry.

Only one person, the only one who slashed him away, looked down at him with cold eyes.

"Why...?

"Why, why...! Finally... finally, I said I was about to get it!

Gopri and spit red liquid out of his mouth the moment he screamed.

... no more help.

Everyone thought so to his appearance.

"Why come so far and overflow from this hand? Why don't you get what you really want?

That being said, the tip of his trembling hand was... not in the direction of the Kingdom of Tasmeria.

That direction was in the north...... in the direction of the House of the Duke of Sliger.

"I wanted to be praised by my father because I could do it once. I wanted to be proud of my father..."

It was like the earliest gossip, a whine.

Nothing in those vain eyes, just reaching out to tremble.

He's like a lost toddler... and I thought to myself how he was.

A boy my father couldn't recognize and didn't love.

The love that I sought grew up without knowing love, giving up, and forgetting the very existence of love, while seeing what makes me a brother, not myself.

We humans on the side of the Kingdom of Tasmeria, including Merlis, do not know when and how he tilted the scale.

Nevertheless, he probably neglected and hated everything.

So much so that if you don't get it anyway, you think you can break everything.

Lady Merlis was just staring at him when he ran out.

In the meantime, the fumble and the first guard she truncated rise.

And I attacked her.

She tried not to move a single eyebrow and reacted, trumpeting the man again.

Between the attacks, however, another escort rises and strikes her from behind.

"Dear Merlis......! Danger!"

Anna was the one who noticed and moved quickly into such enemy action.

When Anna slips her body between Master Merris and his escort's sword in a critical manner, she takes that sword instead of Master Merris.

"Ah... Anna!

Everyone's time certainly stopped for a moment in the sad cry of Lady Merlis, who is not always there.

"Anna......? Anna......?!

She cries and speaks to Anna.

But Anna, who suffered the wound, which was an obvious fatal wound, also breathed constantly.

"Dear Merlis, I'm coming!

I quickly hold such a fallen Anna and run the horse.

And another escort was picking up Cordis and putting him on his own horse as well.

… Even if the enemy commander is dead, it must still be the enemy surrounding Master Merris and the convoys.

The more time you spend in the middle of that enemy formation, the more danger you have.

Did Master Merlis recall the situation in which he was placed, or was immediately moving to get on his horse and leave?

Just like going, run the horse as fast as you can to ram the enemy position sideways like a letter.

However, unlike going, Commander Merlis lacked glory.

Besides, everyone was in a state of full creativity.

... Don't move, don't move.

Everyone in the convoy, including me, screams in their hearts.

Dealing with all enemies is difficult because of the huge difference in numbers... that's why Merlis chose to ambush him and hit him straight from the side like a slap on the side.

And it succeeded, and indeed those who looked like enemy commanders were safely slaughtered by Master Merris.

Still, that didn't knock out all the enemies.

In other words, although we succeeded in the assault... when we pulled out of enemy positions again, we did not know when we would be attacked and lose our lives.

And the trigger, the enemy pulled.

One after the other, Merlis and the others are attacked without clear instructions.

"Knock..."

... the limits of the convoys were right there.

While I'm about to be crushed by a wave of people...... Still, Master Merlis, who was leading the way, keeps waving his sword trying to protect everyone.

... Not yet or not yet?

Have you heard from the Allied reinforcements yet?

I was waving my sword as I continued after Master Merlis, suppressing feelings of deviation and feeling similar to prayer.

Sinking red with one, another.

The air feels heavy on that fact and is going to get tangled up.

No, it was time.

Enemy formations are suddenly surrounded by an unusual atmosphere and flee one after the other.

I don't know what happened...... I put that question in the corner and concentrated on everyone running through that we shouldn't miss this opportunity.
