Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter. 63

1st air raid

Golden shield of the east.

It's the Earl Morco who guards the Eastern Front of the Realm. It was also one of the few neutral families in the current kingdom and a historical knight family that has released the Swordmaster for generations.

Earl Morco's current master, Garnach to Morco, is also a knight of the Sword Master, according to the family stature.

Garnac was usually known for being a huge trainee. I've spent half my day practicing swordsmanship, so I've said everything.

But today was an exception.

Garnac looks up at the sky with a sword at the training ground.

He never opened his eyes during training, but now I have to look at the sky. It was because something crazy was happening in heaven.

“Oh, my God. ”

When I looked at the sky in purple.

It reminded me of what happened before.

A month from now.

Duke Setia once called for an urgent meeting with the nobles of the realm. All the nobles who could gather because they had never done this before responded to the summons. It was the same with Garnac.

That's how all the nobles got together.

The duc told a crazy story.

‘I said monsters would pour out of the sky soon. ’

The sound of madness did not stop there. The monster looked like it was covered in bark and said that if it hurt him, it would turn into the same monster.

And since there is no antidote found to date, he also added a warning to never hurt yourself. After the Duke's story ended, the nobles' faces were all puzzled.

‘At first I thought I was senile. ’

Of course, the Duke of Setier is not a prophet of legend, and the man who was doing well often misunderstands.

But the Duke's gaze was too serious to even consider jokes or nonsense. It didn't look like I was senile again. As a result, only a few nobles following Duke Setier heed his warning.

And Garnac also decided to accept the Duke's advice after considering it.

I had to call knights for autumn training anyway, so I decided to proceed.

Today is the month I've been preparing for that.

Garnac was genuinely relieved to accept the Duke's advice.

Bam! Bam!

A huge boulder fell from the sky that was bitten by a bright light.

After a while, a strange shaped monster protrudes out of the rock. It was a monster covered in bark, as Duke Setier said.

“Raid! Raid!" ”

“The monster fell into the castle! ”

With an urgent shout, the soldiers move swiftly.

Immediately, the bell rang sharply to announce the enemy's attack. There was a great and small battle between the resistance and the outer perimeter. Thanks to my preparation, I was able to deal with it immediately.

Puck! Puck! Qajik!

A sharp sword and spear tore the monster apart.

But that alone was not enough. The creature regenerates the wound in an instant, spreading more intimidating attacks.

Then, the monster's arm grazes the soldier's shoulder.

“Grrrgh!"

A low scream comes from the soldier's mouth.

Luckily, it wasn't fatal. It's just a shredded leather armor and a small cut. The soldier recognizes that he is also a minor, and continues to fight without retreating.

But the moment I saw it,

Duke Setier's warning struck Garnac's mind.

“No way. ”

Not as much as that.

I tried to suppress my sinister heart and looked at him. However, as time went by, the soldier's condition worsened.

“Huff! Huff! ”

Once his breathing got rough. His movements are noticeably dull, and his eyes are bloodshot. I staggered as if I were drunk, and soon sat down with my head in my hands.

“Heave-ho! Heave-ho! ”

I coughed halfway out of my mouth.

Then the soldiers who fought with him shouted in embarrassment.

“Hent! What's wrong with you? ”

“If it's hard, pull back! ”

But the hand does not move.

Then the waited at the back of the guard grabbed his shoulder. To be judged as injured and evacuated from the battlefield.

But did he feel anything strange?

The soldier tilts his head curiously.

“What? Why is your body so stiff? ”

When I whispered that far.

Hent's body twitches, sitting motionless. This quickly heals his wound with a signal. Immediately, his skin began to cover with a hard bark.

“Huh, huh?! ”

A bewildered soldier steps back.

At that moment, Hend's body was torn apart, and numerous branches of trees surged out everywhere.

[Key Read!]

It was no longer a hent.

A hent that has turned out to be like a monster protruding from a rock.

The soldiers do not move as if they were shocked. Later, the knights shouted with a grimace.

“Don't let them hurt you! ”

“Wounded turn into a monster! ”

Enemies quickly grew in twos.

The battle did not end easily, even with five knights and twenty soldiers attached. Because they were constantly regenerating.

“Damn! Why aren't you dying? ”

“Please fall down! ”

When the knights screamed as if they were bored.

A golden flash flashes before your starry eyes.

Spatula

The two monsters were torn apart beyond recognition. And where the monster was, a man in his mid-40s appeared.

“Joo, Joo! ”

It was Earl Garnac.

Garnac stares at the debris with an indifferent eye after killing the monster in a heartbeat. Then the knights beside me shouted in restlessness.

“Danger! Stand down! ”

“They keep playing! ”

Like they say, the monsters didn't die. when you see it move again, even though it's so fragmented that it can't recognize its shape.

But Garnac didn't back down. He throws a torch from somewhere into the wreckage.

[!]

Then a strange scream rang out.

The remnants of the shimmering monsters soon turned to ash. Meanwhile, the knights who watched this scene shouted with their eyes wide open.

“Fire! Fire! Bring me fire!"

“Fire is their weakness! ”

The soldiers move swiftly with the screams of the knights. It was to secure the torch. Meanwhile, Earl Garnac bites his lips tightly, gazing at the ashes.

“· · · · · · · It can't be all true. ”

An unidentified monster appeared.

If you get hurt by him, you turn into the same monster.

We need fire to get rid of them. The warnings that Duke Setier gave were all true. And when he realized this, Garnac felt his heart sinking.

“· · · · · · · · · if you were not prepared for this. ”

You must have suffered a lot of damage in your commotion.

It was horrible just thinking about it. Garnac sighs of relief.

But I haven't been completely reassured yet.

There was still a battle going on in and around the city. Garnac flies to the nearest battlefield.

* * *

Shortly after the second disaster began.

Earl Morco was on the right track.

Knowing the existence of the enemy and preparing for an ambush. On the contrary, no preparations were made for the price of ignoring the duc's words.

On the other hand, almost no damage occurred.

Where to get all this information in advance. It was Earl Archdut.

[My king, I report to you.]

[Enemies in Mullen are said to be dead.]

Three hours since the raid started.

The first victory report has arrived. The ghosts nod.

“I see Tervand fought hard for you. ”

He smiled lightly and immediately reported this to Ferda.

Reports have continued ever since. They were all reports of victory. Ferda, who was listening silently, looked up at the sky outside the window.

‘The debris appearing in the first air strike totals 30,000. ’

Not that many if the entire continent is the target.

But this was the wrong calculation. Because they have a terrifying ability to infect. Thinking about those who would be infected later, 30,000 was never a small number.

‘The first air raid lasted for three days. ’

In short, it means that 10,000 Acacia falls every day for three days immediately after the first air strike. So I couldn't be careless because the victory report had arrived right away.

Then, I heard a clear voice beside me.

[But why are you here, Uncle and Prince?]

Radina's voice.

Sitting in the seat, he tilted his head and opened his mouth.

“This one's pretty dangerous. That's why I did it. ”

Like he said, Akasha's infectious abilities were not so dangerous.

You can't avoid an infection with just a little cut.

That's why I didn't want to go on the front line this time.

‘There's no need to put yourself at risk. ’

And fortunately, Ferda and Silvan had an army to fight for. It was the undead, who had immunity to infection.

However, there were also limits to this method.

It was because Akasha, who appeared in the air raid, used immense divine power. He also had the ability to heal wounds.

The undead are born with an unclean power.

‘If you didn't know this in advance, · · · · · · · ·. ’

The undead army you've placed in advance must have melted down in no time. And the territory that they worked so hard for would have turned into Akasha and marched to Mullen.

‘· · · · · · · Just thinking about it is horrible. ’

Thank God that didn't happen.

When I sigh of relief in my heart. Suddenly, the shadow shivers beneath your feet. Immediately, a little owl suddenly appeared.

[Darian, come in!]

[Owl!]

At the same time, Radina's eyes sparkle fiercely.

Soon after, Radina jumps into the bridge. It looked like a predator aiming for a similar game.

But sadly, the hunt went back to failure. It was because the bridge flew faster. Then Radina muttered with a pointed face.

[Hehe, this time I caught it · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·.]

[Hehe, you're not going to catch me!]

The bridge on Ferda's shoulder gives a joyful smile.

Ferda taps his head. It meant not to play, but to see. He opened his mouth as if he knew.

[It's no big deal, it's just another victory note. They've defeated all the enemies in five cities near Fort Humpty.]

We were able to continue our victory against Akasha, who uses Divine Power, because reinforcements had arrived at the right time.

The Elves of Senek. More precisely, the spirits helped. Spirits are rarely affected by Divine Power.

‘I wanted to take out as many physical attacks as possible, but · · · · · · ·. ’

I didn't have enough time to do that.

There were also limits to the establishment of the undead, so I decided to borrow the power of the Spirit.

The only thing left is to guard the erl for three days and then go to help the other lands.

When I think of my future plans step by step.

[· · · · · ·! Ferda! Look up there!]

Suddenly, you hear an urgent shout in the bridge.

At the same time, a disturbing noise rang out from the ceiling.

Kuaang!

The ceiling collapsed. With a violent vibration, something crashes into the room. White as snow. It was the fruit of the fragment of disaster.

[44601; 44601; 44601; 44601;.]

Soon after, Akasha popped up with fruit.

Then the reality of seeing this cried out urgently.
