Count Scribe's Tutor

Halt!

When Rundall mentions the sword, he pauses for a moment.

However, I couldn't confirm its location. It was in the middle of the enemy, so I couldn't easily make a voice. But fortunately, he asked a question on behalf of Ferda.

[Sword? You know him?]

[Not until I meet him in person.]

[Approximately where?]

[Near that white barracks, but I need to know the exact location.]

There are five white barracks in the distance.

Apart from this, it is presumed that the rest are all gray barracks, probably where important people stay.

[It's a sword. Maybe a knight has it?]

[Well, most likely. Basically, you need to know something about swords to be a contractor.]

Then it's most likely a four-star knight.

Through conversations between the two, Ferda urges to stop, guessing who might be the owner of the sword. Soon after arriving near the first white barracks, you see the paladins guarding the entrance.

‘Two at the entrance, six wandering around. ’

They are all of Expert's finest.

Of course, for Ferda, she could wring her head at any moment.

‘Seeing that the boundaries are hard, · · · · · · · ·. ’

There was definitely a Cardinal in here.

Ferda pauses slightly, then maximizes all of her senses. He then leaps up toward the hole in the ceiling of the barracks and quickly sweeps through the interior.

The barracks were incredibly spectacular.

There were a lot of gold patches on the wall, and the golden carpet on the floor looked very luxurious. At that time, there was a stubborn sensation.

‘One knight and two old men. ’

Now that you're on the verge of the new Sodmaster, it looks like he's one of the four-star knights. And there was a considerable amount of divine power in the two old men who were having a conversation nearby.

Where's the rest of them? ’

The four of us were together until we left the castle.

Ferda frowns in an uncomfortable way.

Can we wait a little longer? ’

It would be better to kill them all at once.

So I thought about waiting for the others to come back, but I couldn't. It was because I saw the Hyde Walker's duration was almost over.

‘I can't help it. ’

We have to get rid of those three first.

Ferda hardened her mind and drew up a plan. It didn't take long. After completing all the concepts, he jumps down towards the inside of the barracks without hesitation.

‘Start with the article. ’

The most annoying of the three is a four-star knight.

It is because it also has the strength of the Sword Master and the divine power of the High Priest. Your Eminence, on the other hand, has little combat power.

Of course, you can use High Divine Magic, but using it takes very little time. And Ferda was confident enough to deal with it before that.

So I aimed for the article as my first goal.

Quadruck! Quadruck!

The Arcane's secret lies in the back of the knight's neck.

As soon as the tip of the sword comes out from the other side of the neck, the scepter twists roughly and pulls out to the right. As the bones and skin crack, red blood spills out.

He suffocated without even screaming.

It was a fairly pointless end for a four-star knight boasting of the Holy Nation.

“ · · · · · ·! ”

Meanwhile, are they baffled by the sudden attack?

The two cardinals remained frozen in place.

“I, Humanitarian · · · · · · ·! ”

Soon after, he regained his composure and tried to warn the enemy.

But Ferda's reaction was much quicker than that.

Phew! Phew!

Two daggers were inserted into the cardinals' foreheads.

It was a dagger that was hidden in shape and shape by a rundal. The two cardinals were also turned into corpses and collapsed side-by-side.

‘Clearly a luxurious carpet. ’

A man goes down and doesn't make a sound.

Ferda smiles deeply and pulls out a dagger in the cardinals' foreheads. Then he cut off the heads of the two cardinals as they were.

Quadruck! Quadruck!

It was a kind of confirmation shot.

I didn't want him to survive.

After a while, the golden carpet was stained with the blood of the cardinals and paladins. After draining the blood from the weapon, you peel through the barracks. To see if there was anything useful.

‘This is... ’

Then I suddenly found things that bothered me.

It was a notebook and a letter that appeared to have been written by the Cardinal and was presumed to be sent to Herheim, the Holy King of Serrhaim.

I didn't read it here, so I put them both in my inventory.

I looked around the barracks a little longer, but there was nothing I could find.

So I took some gold to make some money, and untied the angel thread and moved to the top of the barracks. As soon as we get out through the breach, Ferda uses the Hyde Walkers again.

Saaaa

A swift disappearance.

I looked around the barracks to find something useful, but also to buy time to use the Hyde Walkers again.

‘Then next. ’

Let's go to the second barracks.

Ferda moves quietly again, deciding where to go.

But the second barracks were empty.

There were people, but all three star paladins and high priests. We can take care of it, of course, but we'll have to wait until we can use the Hyde Walkers again.

‘Consider yourself lucky. ’

Leaving them behind, you head for the third barracks.

But this time it was also a waste. Where the hell is he? As you look at your glabella and frown, you hear Rundall's voice again.

[There. I can feel the spirit of the sword there.]

Arcane's scepter flinches, pointing in either direction.

It was the innermost and fifth barracks in the far corner of the encampment.

"The presence of the sword means..." ’

It means there is a high likelihood of a 4-star article.

Ferda, who glitters, heads straight for the fifth barracks. I climb to the top as I have so far, looking through the hole.

However, I did not see anyone who was presumed to be a knight.

Instead, I saw an old man in a silver robe. Cardinal Iri, perhaps.

Are there any escorts? ’

I narrowed my eyes and looked everywhere else.

Just then, there was something that caught Ferda's eye.

‘ · · · · · ·! ’

The one who talks to the Cardinal.

She was a woman with rich golden hair and blue eyes.

She looked like she was in her mid-30s, wearing a bracelet symbolizing the order of the sun, and was much more sacred than a cardinal alarm.

The moment you confirm this.

Ferda sensed the identity of the woman.

"Holy Mother of the Sun! ’

I had never actually seen it, but my gut was whispering that way.

I never thought I'd actually be on the battlefield. Ferda tries to drown the rising emotions, then takes a closer look inside the barracks. However, there were only two in the barracks, the Holy Spirit and the Cardinal.

‘I don't see any four-star articles. ’

Then who has the sword?

The question springs out, but soon I'm out of the picture. It was because the sun's holy woman had to be dealt with first.

But this time, you can't just barge in like the first barracks.

It was because the barracks were full of mysterious magicians. I don't know what it's for, but I didn't get a good feeling.

‘· · · · · · · · · · rather than approaching early. ’

It would be better to assassinate them from a distance.

Ferda, who judged it that way, pulls out the angel thread for a long time. Using this, the heart was able to cut off the neck at once.

‘Take care of the saint and then go after the cardinal. ’

I set up a specific operation and immediately put it into action.

Wheelic!

The thread that disappeared from the rundal's ability quickly swarms.

But then something unexpected happened.

Paan!

Something caught in the thread that was aiming for the neck.

And at that moment, the Holy Spirit and the Cardinal suddenly arose. You must have noticed the raid. The cardinal then cried out with an urgent face.

“S, raid · · · · · · · ·! Aaaaah!"

But I didn't finish the sentence.

It was because the thread of the angel who bounced from the Holy Mother cut off the cardinal's arm. Originally, I should have aimed for the cardinal's head, but it flew off with my arm because the orbit was twisted once.

Grrr!

When the assassination failed, Ferda bites her lip tightly.

Then you rush straight into the barracks. At that moment, the Sun Lady reached her left hand forward.

“Great Sun, protect me! ”

Based on the contents of the prayer gate, it appears to be a magical line of defense.

But Ferda was faster than that. Even before the shield was built, he ran to the saint and swung the Arcane's scepter with a flawless motion.

Ka-ang!

However, the attack was blocked again.

Why? I was staring at my face, and suddenly something caught my eye. It was a radiant bracelet on her wrist.

Is that what this is about? ’

That's the most suspicious thing at the moment.

So this time, I wanted to aim for the bracelet, not the neck. Ferda twists her sword, changing course, and then swings it at her wrist.

No, I tried to swing it.

But then, the starry saint rushed towards me. Upon encounter, I felt a chill. It was a warning from instinct. I didn't know why, but I took the warning lightly.

I was backing down by tilting the central axis.

Something shines from the hand of the saint.

“ · · · · · ·! ”

The moment I realized what it was.

Screaming!

A sharp blade grazes his face.

As the mask was torn, I felt a slight pain in my cheeks. Looks like you haven't completely avoided it. Soon after, Ferda found a small dagger in the hand of the saint.

A dagger small enough to hide it in the palm of your hand.

It was worth not noticing.

[Found it. That's the sword I felt witty about.]

At that moment, you hear an unexpected message from Rundal.

That dagger is a sword? I tried to be surprised, but I couldn't.

Huff! Huff!

It was because the saint had struck again.

You pick up a dagger in one hand and open a nearby sword in the other. After exchanging swords with the Saint several times, Ferda realizes what she is.

‘I didn't expect this. ’

The sun's holy woman before her eyes possessed the skills of a four-star paladin.

It was just overwhelmed by immense divine power. There's an unidentified sword and bracelet to stop this attack. It makes sense that the assassination failed.

‘But. ’

Now I have all the numbers of the saints.

This means that we don't have to be cautious anymore. At that moment, Ferda abandons her defensive attitude. Then I tried to conquer the saint with my own strength.

With a loud noise, the ceiling of the barracks collapses.

Kuaaaaang!

A giant hammer hits the floor. Then the paladin in white armor appeared, blocking the Holy Woman's presence at once.

“Holy woman! Step back! ”

An old knight who looks a lot like Duke Setier.

He was Paladin Eloden, the greatest knight of Serrahim.

‘At this time of year. ’

Eloden was able to handle a one-on-one fight.

But now the heart of the enemy camp. Even Ferda cannot guarantee victory if she fights here.

‘We need to get out of here. ’

Though it was a shame we couldn't get rid of the saint, getting out of here safely is our top priority now. But then, I felt a lot of wits outside the barracks.

“Knights! Protect the Cardinal! ”

“Surround him! Don't ever let him go! ”

Outside, a tight perimeter was built.

Perhaps it had slowly narrowed down from beyond Ferda's senses. You wouldn't have missed it if it wasn't. When I was looking for a way out, I suddenly heard Eloden's words.

“It's no use. We've already blocked all the exits. ”

Eloden, with the hammer, gives out a terrifying burst of energy.

“Don't you dare attack the Holy Lady and be safe! ”

At the end of Eloden's old age, the paladins who were building siege nets drew their weapons.

Not only that. Beyond that, there was a legion of Sererheim, and there were golems in the Holy Land called the Guardians of the Moon.

‘This is going to be a little rough. ’

You can't even use a Hyde Walker with so many eyes.

If you knew this, would you have brought Merced?

When I felt sorry for myself.

“Hit it!”

The knights, including Eloden, rush in unison.

Ferda's lips are clenched and she's preparing for a counterattack.

Glug!

Something rises from under the star's feet.

In an instant, it was shaped, swung a dagger and slashed from the nearest paladin in turn.

“Wha, wha! Aaaaah!"

“Ahhhh!”

“He uses interpersonal techniques! ”

“Everyone, stand back! ”

Suddenly, there was a violent struggle in the defect.

Meanwhile, Ferda suddenly opened her eyes when she saw her aide.

“You · · · · · · ·! ”

Presence of black shapes that appear between the stars.

It was a shadow of Kang Tae Min.

He looks at Ferda with a pathetic look.

Reality asked me to. Interrupt me if you think it's dangerous. ”

I never thought you'd have this kind of insurance.

I should thank you when I get back.

By the time I thought about it, the shadow turned. He then faced Ferda on his back, staring at the paladins.

Just look ahead and run. I got your back.

“That's solid. ”

Ferda grins.

Now I see hope for a way out.

Perda takes a slow breath and unwinds the Arcane's scepter in her right hand and the Angel's thread in her left hand. I then maximized the sensation of my whole body.

“Let's go, then. ”

Signal the nagging muttering.

The two plunged into the ground without anyone having to go first.
