Dragon Poor

Defeated in the Einstein Plains, Nochtein made every effort to reclaim at least a portion of the eastern region until winter came. If the knights and wizards have infiltrated the depths and disturbed the rear, they raided the troops and convoys and plotted a disadvantage.

Some of them actually succeeded and earned their own income. But that's it. Adenberg's back is a little dizzy and a few small convoys are ambushed.

They were preparing for winter, enduring the aggression more and more, and eventually they stopped to reclaim less than two halves of the land in the eastern region that they had lost.

As a noctune, there was a lot of commotion. But it was Griffindor who was even more unfair than that.

The seven Griffin Riders were the pride and treasure of Griffindor. Two such Griffin Riders were taken captive, not one. It was not their war, but the loss of knights that could be regarded as national treasures in foreign wars.

Besides, it wasn't just a loss. His reputation was very high.

“Griffin's appearance of being trampled on by the Red Wyvern and crying did not suit the Lord of the Sky. ”

“The true master of the heavens is Wyvern and Drahon, not Griffin. ”

Griffin Riders, who had been crouching around the castle for a long time, received a lot of attention. And when they were defeated, people chiseled away the Knights of the Sky as if they were waiting.

“The name of the air is Drahon. Griffin Riders are not qualified to use the name" The Sky. "”

As Griffindor, it was unfair to lose the royal treasure in someone else's war, but I was ridiculed by them.

But the real humiliation was neither the fame that fell to the ground nor the ridicule of the three.

“If you wish to take back the Knights of the Sky, pay the compensation offered by the Foreign Office and pay an additional fee. If you refuse, the seven Knights of the Sky will become five knights. ”

The Kingdom of Adenberg, which soared up into a mind-boggling emerging kingdom while absorbing the eastern territory of Nochtane, pressured Griffindor.

It was a hell of a job for Griffindor. When did they have to be so positive that they were looking into foreign affairs? There was no shame like this.

With pride and disdain of the requirements, Griffin's number of only seven judges is five, and I could not have predicted how much harm it would do if I had to accept the requirements.

It was only a matter of time, and winter came.

Winter was a harsh season for all and a harsh season for losers.

“Most of the nocturne nobles who had taken their lands were beheaded and seized. ”

In Mansk's words, Kim Sun-hyuk opened his mouth. Though he knew that Noctune's leader was insane with his never-ending policy of looting, he had never imagined that he would treat the nobles within the lost territory that way.

“Did the nobles of Noctune just stand by and watch? ”

“I didn't have enough protection, so I was leading the charge of defeating the nobles from the east. ”

He frowned without me knowing how to deal with the merciless before and after of Noctene.

“Well, that's a country we've managed to live in. ”

Noctane was more savage than I had ever imagined.

“That's how Nochtane works. ”

Either way, it was clear that the wealth of the executed nobles would be of considerable benefit in recovering war-torn finances and lost power. In fact, the commander could not avoid a qualitative decline, but at a quantitative level, Nochtane's power was restored to pre-war levels, he said.

“Is it possible for the soldiers to grow like that? ”

“Impossible in our kingdom. But noctane is possible. ”

The commander said that the people of Noctune, who undertook the plunder and invasion of the country, were fierce and fierce enough to use Bondi as a soldier right away.

But even that kind of greenhorn was completely incapable of recovering power before the war. The loss of many skilled archers was also a major blow, but the warriors and wizards who died were unable to recover the common soldier.

“I heard it's less than twenty if you combine all the knights and wizards who died in the Western Front. ”

Commander Mansk's tone was proud.

Even in such a vicious battlefield where Griffindor and Nochtane collided, Nochtane only lost a superhuman who was less than twenty. The superhuman life force was persistent and protected at the national level.

Nearly 70 people died on the Eastern battlefield. And it was Kim Sun-hyuk who ended the majority of the supernatural people who died like that.

In the first battle, Noctane slaughtered thirty Wizards of the Blue Wolf Knights who were guarded by the Green Wolf Knights. And the Blue Wolf Knights with bloodshot eyes continued to consume their power to avenge their sorcerer's humiliation.

It was too big an achievement and a specialty to think of it as a solo achievement.

That was not the end of his work.

Red Wolves came to you on behalf of the Blue Wolves who fell defeated and became like the Stragglers. They were thoroughly prepared to teach their colleague the classics and succeeded in digging a trap to lure him out.

But even that trap could not tie the feet of Kim Sun-hyuk. Rather, Talisman, the commander of the sorcerers who were mobilized, and the leading knights of the Red Wolf Knights, lost their lives at his hands. Only Halo, the leader of the Red Wolf Knights, survived.

The most humiliating defeat in the history of Nochtaine was the first time that the same man had lost two heads of the Wizard Army.

His reputation had spread to the continent, confined to Adenberg and Noctaine in that single battle.

It was the first time the name of Drahon, the absolute warrior who had destroyed and slaughtered the swordsmen and the traps of the high wizards, was spreading across the continent.

It wasn't just that.

Kim Sun-hyuk defeated Griffindor's long-standing reputation on the continent. The whole continent is in turmoil as Lollan of the Storm is defeated twice, and word has spread that Lafayette of Flame has not been able to fight properly and has been taken captive.

“The name of the sky finally found my master. ”

As the Knights of the Sky have enjoyed a great reputation for many years, the price of Drahon's name for their defeat has risen to the skies.

But no matter how famous the people of the continent were, it was nothing compared to his reputation spread among the western armies.

“Where there is Drahon, there is no defeat. ”

For the western army, Dragon itself was another name for victory, and it was faith. Even the blood of the House of Eden could not surpass his influence.

Possibly a somewhat sensitive situation, nevertheless, the Kingdom of Athens has demonstrated unchanging trust in him several times.

“Earl Drahn is the true nobleman of the Kingdom of Adenberg. In the name of the royal family, if a man commits adultery or slander and something unclean happens to him, I will punish him personally. ”

The nobles were concerned about the excessive goodwill and trust of the royal aristocrats, but they were not able to stand up and challenge it.

It was a burden for the prestigious nobles to emerge as a war hero and now pass on the name of Dragon without anyone knowing its name in the kingdom.

So he began with the terminal cavalry and became indifferent and untouchable in just a few years.

However, Mansk did not consider such a position as Kim Sun-hyuk. We have a specialty, so we take it for granted.

“If it wasn't for you, this war would have been tough. ”

The Commander's expressions of grandeur make a bitter look on his face.

The battlefield is the Commander who has always insisted that it is not a superhuman playground. However, there was nothing for ordinary soldiers and commanders to do on the battlefield where the superhumans were deployed. The battlefield belonged only to the superhumans.

Since the lifelong belief in the battlefield was denied to the forefront, it was hard to imagine how great the sense of loss and skepticism was.

“Commander…. ”

“Don't make that face. I've learned a lot in this war. ”

The commander said the operation of the superhumans involved in this war was virtually a setback, and that it would win or lose the war depending on how the superhumans and ordinary soldiers operate in harmony in the future.

“Commander, you can do this. ”

Commander Mansk shakes his head at his words.

“That's not my job. I will be a remnant of the old age, a retreat, and the war will be led by new people in the future. ”

Kim Seon-Hyuk was saddened by the fact that he had just declared his retirement. Looking at him like that, you send out a confident look in the Commander's eyes.

“Someone like you. ”

He only tilted his head because he didn't know what he was thinking.

Lafayette and Roland, who were captured by defeat in the Battle of the Einstein Plains, have been detained in Fort Calstein. They did not doubt that the home country would not abandon them, but were discouraged by the long life of captives. My pride was nowhere to be found.

In fact, the treatment they received was not that bad. Although it did not reach the royal luxury of bedrooms and meals, Adenberg paid good attention to the prisoners who were returning.

Nevertheless, the two knights were overly frustrated.

“I'll be back soon. What are you so discouraged about? ”

I didn't understand it, so Kim Sun-hyuk asked me a question that I didn't know if I was being sarcastic or not.

“I wouldn't be sad if we made a mockery of that high-profile name. ”

Lafayette says he snorts. It is thought that those who do not have faith have the same image of carrying honor. That's why their words don't sound so sincere.

And in fact, they were frustrated for a different reason. It was around the end of winter that Kim Sun-hyuk found out why.

“If you are unfair, come back and apply for a duel again. I'll take it anytime. ”

“Perhaps we will never challenge you again to a duel in the name of the Sky. ”

There seemed to be a reason that it was simply a word for defeat. But Lafayette never seemed to tell me why.

“Perhaps when we return home, we will be stripped of our names and stripped of our Griffin Rider credentials. ”

It was Roland who gave the answer.

“Roland!"

Lafayette screams and tries to shut Roland up, but Kim Sun-hyuk stops that kind of Lafayette.

“You lost Griffin? ”

I had no interest in Griffin Rider being snatched from the abyss because of the name of the abyss.

“The Knights of the Sky are not seven. To be precise, the sky is the name of the Knights. ”

“Go on.”

After taking a look at Lafayette for a moment, Roland looks back at his superior, who doesn't seem to have any intention of resting, whether he resigned or was depressed during Kim Sun-hyuk's period.

“Sir Lafayette and I have only become riders in recognition of our rider qualifications, among many. We have offended the Knights, so we can't expect the rider's qualifications to continue. ”

This was a new story. The name of the Knight in the Sky, which I thought only meant the seven riders, was actually the name of the Knights of the Griffin Rider Cadets.

“I heard Griffin won't change owners until he's dead once he's taken his place. But how are we going to get Griffin? ”

There's nothing known about the Knights of the Sky, but if it's known about Griffin, I've heard a little about it. That's why I couldn't understand Roland any more.

“We weren't Griffin's owners at the beginning. ”

With Lollan's curious look on his face, this time Lafayette stepped forward and said,

“The Lord of the Seven Griffins is the King of Griffindor. We have qualified as riders, so we borrowed Griffin from the king for a while. ”

“They may have taken action in their home country by now. The imprint on the griffin is absolute beyond the streets. ”

If Roland had already taken action in his home country, he would have seemed discouraged that he could only ride Griffin once back to his home country.

“Then you'll have a hard time getting back to your home country. ”

None of us have ever received the Hall of Fame more than those who are in the ranks of the High Knights. However, since there were existing things that they enjoyed, the loss and humiliation that they enjoyed will haunt them for the rest of their lives. How many of these two wonders were the ones whose vanity and pride pierced the sky.

“Hmm…. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk thought. And after a long time, I opened my mouth.

“Let me ask you one question. ”

His eyes open like that, slightly bent, as if he had a funny idea.

“Is loyalty to your country important to you, or the glory of Griffin Ryder?" ”

“What does that mean? ”

Lafayette asks, "What kind of fat question is this?"

“If you let Griffin ride on, what would you do? Are you still going back to your home country? ”

The Knights of the Sky tilt their heads as they see him rambling as if he were the owner of the sheep.

“Tell me, what is most important to you? ”

Either way, he just urged them to answer again.
