Dragon Poor

‘Avoid engaging as much as possible and prioritize maintaining the status quo. ’

The absolute ban on engagement from the royal court was practically a meaningless order. Even before the instructions came down, the soldiers of Noctane had lost their minds, and in fact, the wire had collapsed into a state of weakness.

Noctane's army is crouched in a makeshift encampment at the newly formed central and eastern borders, and there is no sign of him even stepping out. The willingness to restore the territory with the agreement in mind was already nowhere to go.

It wasn't hard to do.

The supplies have been cut off, their health has been damaged, and the soldiers' will has been severed by repeated defeat and retreat. The soldiers of Noctane have already fallen so low that they can no longer be demoralized.

The defeat ceremony and the commanders all over the front had nothing to do with those soldiers. The morale was the same regardless of the command.

It all started with a stranger in Adenberg.

By the time the Blue Wolf Knights and the Wizards joined forces, the soldiers of Noctune thought they could restore all their lost territory and drive out the opportunists of Adenberg.

I was mistaken.

The Magic Squad was ambushed and destroyed before doing anything else, and the surviving Blue Wolf Knights left the front, being persecuted to death. The newly replenished Red Wolves and Wizards have ordered revenge.

However, the cunning estramorwn did not give him a chance for revenge. I thoroughly ignored the knights and hunted down ordinary soldiers.

In the meantime, the troops that were damaged or lost their commanders could not be counted, and morale plummeted. The Knights and Wizards of Adenberg are active on the front line, but they can't be motivated because their knights and magicians are playing with nothing.

Then the Red Wolf Knights and the Magic Squad devised a plot. He managed to lure a stranger who was disguised as an infantry soldier.

However, the results were dismal. Talisman, the wizard leading the operation, and five senior wizards were killed without even leaving a body, and executives of the Red Wolf Knights were killed. Only Halo, the leader of the Red Wolf Knights, and a few lucky infantry men survived.

“Dragons are stormy demons. The knights and wizards were consumed by the storm. ”

The defeat that day spread through the mouth of the surviving infantry.

“Blast those who spread wild rumors so that the soldiers will not be shaken anymore. ”

The commanding officer later decapitates the soldiers who made fun of them, but the rumors have already spread since the first wave.

Since then, the soldiers of Noctune, also known as the jackals, have become fearsome rabbits.

* *

Mwah!

A sharp roar echoes through the wilderness, and the soldiers of Noctune curl up behind a wooden fence, shivering.

“Don't come down. Please don't come down. ”

They wanted the Red Devil of the Sky to ignore them and pass them by again. Fortunately, the sky listened to them.

The Devil who was wandering around the blue sky turned his head and disappeared from the front.

“Ha.”

He only appears and disappears, but the soldiers hanging on his neck gasp as if they were in a duel. The weak among the dogs were at ease on the bridge.

Similar sights occurred all over the front.

Drahon and Wyvern wandered the wire as if it were a demonstration of force, and the soldiers of Noctane alone were completely terrified and lost their minds.

This was the situation in the battlefield, and the royal ban on engagement had to be an order.

“It's quiet again today. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk, who was wandering around the front, said with a happy face. If the soldiers of Noughtane had heard, they would have brazenly said anything to make the match happen.

But his words were not lies. It was true that the front was as quiet as there was no fighting like this.

It was not just Nochtaine who was not actively engaged in combat, and Adenberg, who was winning the war, did not go through too much.

As long as Griffindor was able to resist the greenhouse, he was unable to push it forward, as he had been before, until the end of the previous agreement.

A horrific consumption was most likely if the chock-full of noctune focused all power to the east. Adenberg didn't want that.

I don't know, but the war will probably end this way. We did not know whether to absorb all of the territory that Adenberg occupied or return some of it for a price, but we also knew that the war had reached the end.

I want to rest.

When the end of the war is seen, the fatigue of the war is pushed all at once.

“Ha... How did I...? ”

I woke up and saw that there was so much blood on my hands.

I've been in and out of wars dozens of times, but I've killed as many people as I can in this war. Although it was mostly the death that happened under so much difficulty that Aria Eisen could not see it, it was inevitable that she was also an accomplice.

I was eager to get revenge.

‘The hero of the West. ’

‘The Spear of Adenberg. ’

‘The whole body, Drahon. ’

‘Knights of the Storm. ’

The more people killed, the more allies blindly praised him and sent him close trust. Thanks to this, he had to continue to wander the wire, enduring fatigue.

But that was the limit, too.

When three weeks had finally passed since the battle had ended on the front lines, he couldn't take it anymore and asked for an interview with Mansk Commander.

“The whole body of Adenberg has been searching for this retreat, and I wonder what happened. ”

“I'm going back to the territory now. ”

Commander Mansk smiled and welcomed Kim Sun-hyuk.

“The king has asked me to listen to whatever you have to ask, but this is unthinkable. ”

The Commander still asks with a hard face.

“Are you out of stock? Your vacancy will be enormous. ”

“I might even vote that the wire is missing one of me in the already stabilized yard. Even if you get a ticket, there will be lots of talented knights and wizards, so it will be over soon. ”

The more you hold on to the enemy knights and magicians, the less damage you do to your knights and wizards. Those who have preserved their power intact will be able to overcome challenges no matter what happens on the front lines.

“No, no, no. They're not crouching because they're afraid of knights and wizards. All they fear is the name of the Red Devil, Dragons. ”

“That's just an awkward nickname. ”

I would have said that I would stop the others, but it was not a good sound to hear from Kim Sun-hyuk. Nicknamed the Red Devil, it sounds like he's pinching blood and sin on his hands.

“And if that one goes down and the wire collapses, there's no point in overguarding it." ”

A brazen horse that I wouldn't have been able to do in the past, but the weight was on it because I had a ball built and a different position.

The battlefield is not a superhuman playground. Commander Mansk used to say the same thing.

“I see. You're right. If a knight is missing and the borders are crumbling, we must give up early and secure the existing borders. I said something stupid. ”

The commander only listens to him so he can't catch him.

“And even if it's not, I'm on my own. My body and mind are really tired now. ”

Commander Mansk nodded to see if he was as sympathetic as he said.

“It's not a big deal. No one's been on the front lines more than you since the war. I guess I was too incompetent to burden you. I really don't feel sorry for you. ”

The number of battles he fought in a short period of time was tens of times that of others. Besides, whatever battles he fought, they were ordinary.

At the beginning of the war, we destroyed the Wizard and tied the feet of the Green Wolf Knights of Noctane close to perfection. After the Blue Wolf Knights were annihilated, they turned the front and disrupted a large number of troops. Later, I had to endure a focused attack by the Red Wolves and the Magic Squad.

Even though he had gained maneuverability that no one could keep up with, he had to endure many deaths. He was brutally beaten on the battlefield.

“Now I want to go back and rest. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk was really tired, and Mansk Commander didn't look good either. That's why the commander couldn't hold him any longer.

“So when are you leaving? ”

“In case you haven't noticed, I'm thinking of destroying some of Noctane's major facilities. ”

The day he struggled to fall into the trap of the Red Wolves and Wizards, his level reached 19. He instinctively felt that another level up was coming up soon, and he was about to collect his EXP.

King Theodore has contacted us just moments before our final departure.

[The knights say a lot of compliments. Your efforts have reduced the damage.]

“I did my best to believe one thing from His Majesty. ”

I didn't say it was good to hear. It was a war that I was promised for, so I confirmed once again that I would be paid for my work. Commander Mansk, who was listening by, noticed the intent and showed a fierce face, but King Theodore smiled rather than being offended.

[Yes. I will do my best to meet your expectations as well.]

After that, the king paid for his work for a long time.

[Yes, I heard you wanted to leave the wire.]

“I was ambushed in the territory, and I'm not sure I'm going to be able to pull myself together because of the accumulation of injuries and fatigue I sustained in the last battle. Please count them.”

[Don't get me wrong. Obviously, I've given you exclusive control of the operation and let you decide your retreat. If you think it's time for you to step back, that's it.]

It was the head of the royal family of Adesden who regarded his words as gold.

[However, there is something I would like to ask you first.]

Kim Sun-hyuk, who was already licensed to return, was relieved and waited for King Theodore's words.

[What if there are others like you who want to play Noctuane?]

“What do you mean... ”

When he asked a question he did not know, the king briefly replied about Tum.

[I've been informed that Griffin Riders have left Griffindor's Kingdom.]

“Your Majesty, I am foolish and cannot understand what you are trying to say. ”

[That two of the seven Knights of the Sky are headed for the western front where you are.]

The king once again asked me, looking for a word to answer.

[Are you going to leave the Knights of the Sky behind?]

Momentarily, the look of the Green Soldiers staring at him with a desperate face went through my mind.

“Your Majesty... ”

When he could not answer quickly, the king said decisively.

[The Knights of the Sky have spoken. I'm gonna find out who really owns the skies. But I don't think so.]

It seemed like an expression of infinite trust, and on the one hand, it seemed childish.

[What do you think?]

However, it was also difficult for Sun-hyuk Kim to answer either side.
