Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter 89. Carnage (2)

Multiple simultaneous attacks across the capital.

On the highest spire of the castle, there were those who looked at it.

Ferda and Silvan stare indifferently at the view of the capital. Rising fires everywhere. Even the smell of death with the black smoke.

Ferda narrows her eyes.

‘Much faster than I expected. ’

In the event of Western treachery, it was a good choice to keep the underlings in the sewers. With 50,000 undead all together on the ground, it will be difficult to respond.

"At this rate... ’

We'll have it sorted out before the Holy Nation subordinates arrive.

When Ferda's mouth went up slightly. The practice of keeping silence ever since I got up the spire suddenly opened my lips.

“I've been thinking about this lately. ”

An indifferent voice that feels nothing.

After a while, the realm muttered with a fixed gaze on the front.

“Is it okay for humans to exist? ”

“What?"

What are you talking about all of a sudden?

Ferda, who came out of her thoughts, quietly asked. Then he continued to answer, stuttering his memory.

“Of all the people in the world, only humans lie. Disgusting bastards who cheat at nothing, repay their kindness with betrayal, and abandon even their promises of honor easily. ”

The voice of reality evoked contempt.

Perhaps Bernia's betrayal has changed her mind. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have to say this all of a sudden.

A moment later, Ferda said in a rather awkward tone.

“But I'm a human being, too. ”

“Except for Ferda. ”

Before he finished speaking, he cut the thread just in time.

Ferda smiles with a confident answer.

“That's contradictory.”

“I know, but you said it before, right? There's no absolute way to do everything. No matter what, no matter where, exceptions exist. ”

I did say that.

But that was in a different situation. Meanwhile, the reality continued without hesitation.

“I'm one of the exceptions for Ferda. ”

“What are you talking about? ”

“It's very special to me. ”

I smiled.

It was a smile as pure as a child. Ferda, on the other hand, could not laugh. It was because I remembered the previous times when I looked down on humans.

‘It's not the first time human hatred has happened. ’

In fact, it was no exaggeration to say that they hated humans in all the previous times.

Of course, from the 1st to the 8th, the reality was always persecuted, betrayed and abandoned by humans. As a result, at the end of the repetition, people were always cursed and killed.

‘But · · · · · · ·. ’

This time was different from the previous round.

Of course, we were persecuted by humans again, but it is also true that there was no case to do this compared to the last time. So why the sudden reaction?

"Did you believe in Bernia? ’

Suddenly I made such assumptions, but I realized that I wasn't.

Because the truth is, even Robert didn't believe in us for a long time. Moreover, neither Duke Setier nor Earl Keshmif believed him.

But you can't trust Bernia, who's a novice.

‘Then why is this reaction? ’

I had no idea.

Just as the curious color of Ferda's face became darker.

The stargaze of the stargaze was towards the castle.

“I think it's about time. ”

Where the eyes of the light are headed.

It's a kingdom of Confederate and Eastern forces. According to Duke Darcas' orders, he was currently in a ditch in front of the castle.

I saw northern and western forces chasing after it.

From the state of things, you don't seem to want to rush right away. Perhaps you'll regroup in front of the castle and march in unison. While reading the situation quietly, the realm stood up.

“See you later, then. ”

With a light smile, the realm flicked its fingers.

At that moment, something fell from the night sky. It was a huge Bone Dragon, Kwain. The man who burned him went straight to the bottom of the castle as instructed.

“Let me finish, too. ”

Ferda, who was watching this, plunged into the ground.

After a while, the spire quietly bites as if nothing had happened.

* * *

Meanwhile, the time.

The general commander of the western army, Earl Seor's barracks, remained calm.

Whether you know of any battle in the capital or not, the Marquis simply takes his car for granted. Then you hear a familiar voice outside the barracks.

“Mr. President, a report has come from the messenger. ”

I was Deputy Warden Jellon.

The deputy came into the barracks with a salute.

“It is said that the enemies are retreating to the castle as one. ”

The report said the Marquis's eyebrows twitched.

After a moment, he lowers his teacup and asks with a dry tune.

“What is the remaining size of the Royal Army? ”

“It's the same report I gave you about a decade ago. ”

That means the damage rate is less than two. And you're already biting the wire to the castle? The monarch still mutters with a crooked face.

“This is unexpected. ”

What the hell is he up to?

The monarch rolls his head constantly to find out what the royal army is up to. The deputy asked with a cautious face.

“What do you want me to do? ”

“Once pursued, the advance is on hold. ”

There's definitely something. There's no reason to pull the wire back without it. Perhaps he set a trap, and the prince decides to act with caution.

“Regroup in front of the castle. After we've investigated the enemy's presence, we'll move on. ”

“Yes, I understand! ”

With a mighty salute, the deputy leaves the barracks.

The lagufaeth, left alone, picks up the teacup again. The tea is a little cold, but not too cold to drink. After a relaxing cup of tea, the monarch glances at the castle, which looks beyond the barracks.

‘· · · · · · Princess Bernia. ’

Jerome is the most talented princess in royal history.

He was good at politics and diplomacy, and he was perfect in loving people.

‘Yes, I'm definitely capable. ’

If he had been born a man, he would have become a saint within five fingers.

Perhaps he was called a great king like Jerome the First. But since I was born a princess, Bernia's fate was sealed.

‘But this time I made a big mistake. ’

The Marquis thinks there are two Bernia's mistakes.

One is the work of a man named Ser Nec who believes in a great deal of power. No matter how powerful they are, they are just Independence Orders belonging to one kingdom.

And yet you join forces with such power to oppose the Holy Nation and the Empire? To the Marquis, it was completely insane.

‘And the second mistake. ’

Sent the western army, including the Marquis, straight into the capital.

Of course I understood. The Grand Duke is known to be very intimate with the Duke of Darcas. However, this was the intention of the Marquis, who made it look like that everywhere.

In the beginning, the Marquis of Seir was never neutral.

He was always on the side of the Holy Kingdom and the Empire. But I couldn't reveal it, so I pretended to be friendly with Duke Darcas on purpose.

‘I benefited greatly from it. ’

He smiles bitterly at the palace.

After returning to his desk, he poured all the cold tea into his mouth and read the reports he had never seen before. Then, in certain reports, his gaze stopped.

“This is · · · · · · · · ·. ”

Jerome's allies report on Laderon.

It was about 30,000 reinforcements sent to Princess Bernia. The monarch reading this frowned as he looked at the snow.

“Then why did you send reinforcements? ”

Just because you're friendly with the princess?

No, it's too risky for that.

So you have a bad relationship with the Holy Land?

Nor this. It was possible that there was only one foreign country to help Count Seor, but it also included the Norse Empire.

“You know the scale of the empire. ”

The Norse Empire is a unified defeater of the continent.

Only the first troops to come here immediately reached 200,000. It was similar to the combined forces of the Holy Nation, Jerome and Laderon. It didn't make sense for Laderon to help Princess Bernia.

Then there was a guess that suddenly struck the brain.

“· · · · · Is it because of the commander's boy? ”

At the present time, it was very likely.

I heard he was a war hero for Laderon. He also had a history of defeating the previous disaster, so he must have been reliable enough. Despite this, the Marquis's reaction was still negative.

“But no matter how legendary the commander is, ”

This time the opponent is too bad.

The Holy Land, with the power of the poles, and an empire of powerful military forces. Even after predicting a few times, the results were always the same. That's why the monarch woke up after clearing out the rest of the anxiety.

A moment later, the monarch mutters with an open face.

“Now that you've taken control of the castle. ”

I was going to capture Prince Bernia and Duke Darcas first, and then I was going to purge them of their treason. And overthrow the king, King Carter, and bring Prince Berter to justice.

Later, Prince Berter became a scarecrow and the Marquis himself could take over Jerome's government. This was the final goal of Count Seul's dream. I was wet with a happy smile imagining a rosy future.

Wudang Tang!

Suddenly, you hear a commotion outside.

Shortly after, the deputy enters the barracks.

“Go, Mr. President! ”

A very thoughtful face.

The deputy shouted in an urgent voice.

“Feed from Search Bloc! ”

“Feedback?”

“Yes! Search parties are currently engaged with unknown enemies across the capital! I can't even get in touch with some of the squads, including the phantom squad! ”

“· · · · · · · What? ”

An unidentified enemy. What's this all of a sudden?

The monarch frowns. The moment I was about to accuse the embarrassed deputy.

Kuaaaaang!

The ground shakes with a tumultuous sound.

The barracks were also crumbling like they were about to collapse. Immediately, the barracks that could not withstand the shock tilted to one side, and the outside landscape illuminated the eyes of the baron and deputy.

“ · · · · · ·! ”

The deputy shivers, as well as the late lord's eyes.

In front of the castle are two eyes. There, you see the Bone Dragon, which boasts a huge body, breathing fire from its mouth. The empty-handed monarch quickly regains his composure.

“Deliver the retreat order to all troops! ”

Fighting against it must have been devastating.

No, I didn't have a clue how to fight before. So I decided to step out of the castle and wait for reinforcements from the Holy Land.

However, the deputy's answer did not return.

The baron cries out, his face twitching.

“Deputy! I can't hear you right now! ”

The moment I turned my head with a nervous voice.

The monarch remains frozen. It was because the deputy we were just talking to was lying on the floor on a cold corpse. Immediately after realizing something was wrong, I heard a strange voice behind my back.

“You're not as bad at judging situations as I am. ”

Creepy!

The moment I heard his voice, I felt goosebumps all over me.

It was because I didn't feel any initiative until I realized this. It was Ferda, the military blue-haired assassin who turned his head. The emperor hurriedly throws his weapon to the ground.

“Wait a minute! I surrender!”

“Surrender?”

“Yes. My life is worth a cart of gold. If you let me go alive, I'll give you a cart or two of gold! ”

The baron shouts.

Two golden carts seemed to think it would be persuasive enough. Ferda, on the other hand, winces.

“I don't need it. ”

Kill it and take it anyway.

Ferda hesitates and shouts with a much more urgent face than before.

“I, General Commander of the West and the North, represent the West. Under international law, you are obligated to ensure the safety of the commander who surrendered. Huff!”

The Arcane's scream pierces the Marquis's heart.

I whispered coldly, looking at the bloodshot eyes.

“There are no prisoners in Serek's war. ”

Kwaek!

Red blood spills from the baron's mouth as he shakes his head.

After taking out the Marquis in a single blow, Ferda leaves the barracks immediately. It was already a battle outside. Numerous corpses piled up and piled up, and blood from them flowed into the river.

Then the familiar face comes this way.

“I've dealt with all the enemies hiding in the streets. ”

It was Heron.

Ferda nods and asks the next question.

“The North Gate?”

“Tervand is guarding. ”

That's what's blocking the exit.

Ferda turns to a satisfied face. Then came Heron's question.

“More than that, some commanders have surrendered. How do we deal with them?" ”

“Kill.”

Once we've dealt with the Commander-in-Chief, Marquis Seor, there's nothing left to talk about.

As I said before, I was going to make them all dead.

“Don't leave anything behind. ”

Starting with a cruel order.

The film of the horrific massacre rises.
