Dragon Poor

281. Cultists (2)

The situation has only gotten worse and worse lately, but the return of the Grand Duke, who is praised as the whole body, will not be pleased. The monarch of Iberia ran to the port, forgetting his face, and welcomed the return of the great knight.

“The Grand Duke! ”

Until he left, there was no longer a victorious Grand Duke who had a mild illness. Though he was humbled by the moisture that just came out of the water, his upright appearance was as robust as the first time the duke of Iberia saw him.

“You're back!”

The Grand Duke of Iberia once again shouts for the return of the great knight who never wished him to return.

Ugh.

The Grand Duke turned his head as he looked at the harbor of Granado, rushing back and forth into the whirlpool of the Grand Duke of Iberia. An oddly low look settles on the Grand Duke of Iberia.

“Phew.”

Diego Velázquez, who was jostling like a hug at once, stopped for a sigh without even knowing it.

“The Grand Duke?”

For some reason, I felt like I had just fallen out of the vicinity of the Grand Duke. The cold air made the Grand Duke of Iberia freeze, as if winter had come only around him.

The Grand Duke asked, watching the great Iberian Emperor.

“How long has it been? ”

The voice of the Grand Duke I had heard for a long time was surprisingly cold.

“It's been a little over two months since the first fleet returned. 68 days, to be exact. ”

“Damn it.”

At the end of the answer, the Grand Duke turned his head to look at the sea and uttered a profanity. The Grand Duke of Iberia, who had never known English, shrugged his shoulders as if he had sinned.

The Grand Duke of Iberia, who was a Zarama, quietly looked at the victorious Grand Duke.

“What's the status?”

But I didn't have time to tear out the face of a different monarch.

“Not very good. ”

The Grand Duke of Iberia explained all the changes in the wire that took place within the last two months of his disappearance.

* *

Kim Sun-hyuk uttered his profanity several times in his heart.

Damn it. Damn it.

It took me too long to get back. I thought I would be back in a week, but I came back after two months.

And in the meantime, the war has spread incredibly large. The whole of the Middle East and the Middle East were at war, and several times in between, there was an upside down event.

All of that happened in the two months that he was away.

“Don't blame yourself for what you've done. It's no wonder the enemy advances so rapidly with the invasion of Iberia in mind from the beginning. Maybe they wanted the West to be so badly sacrificed that it was so polluted that it was useless. ”

The Grand Duke of Iberia, who saw his heavy expression, offered consolation, not consolation.

There was definitely a point to it.

If the kingdoms of the Church and the Middle Kingdom had not thought of war against Iberia from the beginning, they would not have been able to reach the border of Iberia so quickly.

“The Grand Duke was right. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk still didn't speak, and the Grand Duke of Iberia once again gave me a reason to know who he was.

But unlike the concerns of the Grand Duke of Iberia, he wasn't blaming himself.

“The most disadvantageous place is Sevilla Fortress. ”

Quickly analyzing the charter, he takes out where he needs help right away, and his eyes light up as if he were on the move.

“I trust you're not planning on heading straight for the battlefield. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk shakes his head at the voice of the Great Duke of Iberia, which is full of the color of all time.

“Not yet.”

The Grand Duke of Iberia tries to say something with a frown, but first he strikes.

“Connect me with the Imperial Court. ”

Immediately, the great Duke Iberia arranged communication with Hwang without delay.

“Since this is the right time, there is a high possibility of interception. If you have sensitive conversations, please talk to a professional who has been secured…. ”

The communication wizard left a few words to let you know that the communication has been established.

“It's too late. I'm sorry."

Kim Sun-hyuk straightaway cleared his voice and apologized.

[It's not even new anymore. I feel like I'm back sooner than I thought.]

Ofelia wasn't angry, but she wasn't just happy about it. In that short period of time, I thought about my husband for a month, two months, and lost contact with him.

[At least the voice is strong enough to get what the Grand Duke wants.]

“Things got messy in the middle, but I still got more than I wanted. ”

You hear Ofelia sigh from beyond.

She was talking around the Blood and Tearless Empress, but in the end, she had only relieved herself after checking on her husband's strength.

“What about you, then? No matter what happened, no matter how worried I was, I couldn't be relieved to hear His Majesty's voice. ”

[... Both I and my child are immortal.]

His voice softens slightly, and this time he sighs for relief. However, the situation was not good to just share the joy of the reunion forever.

“I will join the battle. ”

[I thought so. I wish I could send him home right away, but he probably won't listen.]

She asked if she knew about it as well, but instead of saying she was afraid of it, she asked about her journey forward.

“First, we try to save the stranded Fortress of Sevilla. ”

[And then?]

Ofelia has not asked how to save the fortress in the position of the detainee. It was as if he had declared it so he thought it would be so.

“Justification, why this war began, and why they can no longer make empty noises. ”

[The Empire will stand behind you.]

“I believe you. ”

And just as she believed him, so did he. He believed that the Empire would support him in any way he moves.

After a long time of communication, we were unable to discuss the details due to the dangers of listening.

But that was enough.

I've informed Ofelia of her well-being, and she and the child are both safe. In addition, he informed me that he will be joining the battle soon.

If you are a wise Ophelia, you will be able to assist in any way you move in the future.

“What happened? ”

The Great Duke of Iberia, who had been waiting for the end of the communication, asked if the imperial court had a plan for the secret art of the Church.

“I couldn't discuss the details, but you seemed to have no regard for the secret art of the Church. ”

“That means... ”

“Perhaps you have already found a way. ”

It was only after hearing his answer that the appearance of the Grand Duke of Iberia, who had been crumpled up, came to light.

“If you can do that, you're someone else. ”

It wasn't long before Iberia joined the Empire, but the Grand Duke was a devoted follower of the Empress for a short time.

Actually, nothing has changed. The frontier that was pushed away as the border collapsed did not realize that it would still recover, and the Alliance of the Eastern Kingdoms was being held back by a central army that had been turned into berserkers.

“We'll have to hold out for now. ”

“Can you do that? ”

All that changed was that one person who had disappeared came back.

“Even if Iberia's finances are completely bankrupt and all its periods are consumed after this war, I won't hand over a single ounce of land to the enemy. ”

Nevertheless, the eyes of the Grand Duke of Iberia were shining with unprecedented vitality.

* *

The Grand Duke of Iberia put into practice the fact that his words were never false or exaggerated. You send all your forces to the front, leaving only the smallest force to defend Granado.

It was a bold decision. If the superhumans were in a frenzy right now, it was also a decision that the deranged monarchs would not make.

However, the Grand Duke of Iberia never made a reckless decision to put Granado's well-being behind him.

“Give me a moment. It won't take long. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk nodded kindly.

Even if it wasn't requested by the Grand Duke of Iberia, there's something we need to do first before we head to the front.

“Thermon dragon. ”

The battle with the Demon King resulted in Magi's erosion and the healing of the Goldrake first.

Grrrrrrr.

Again, the Goldrake was already quite eroded by Margie. Even the glorious golden eye is bloodied with half its massive trunk blackened.

“But it's not too late. ”

Half of them have already shimmered, but Goldrake does not reveal his teeth to his master. It was a fortunate thing at least.

“Bluegon.”

In a short sentence, bluegun slashes his sleep and sticks out his head.

However, the appearance of the Sea Dragon was different from the past for a long time.

The blue scale and the smooth curve that did not distort the sea were the same, but their existence was not comparable to before.

The headache alone was enormous enough to swallow it up, and even part of the torso outside the surface was comparable to the giant earth's dragons.

It wasn't just that.

Many pairs of wings that sprouted on the horns or torso in the middle of the forehead that constantly emitted cold air were something that Bluegon had never seen before.

[Even Margie's erosion has transformed her innate temperament, so this should be enough for a dragon.]

Even Bluegon spoke naturally.

“Don't get cocky. You can heal. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk took this for granted. He spent two months in the deep sea healing his body and had a history of talking to Bluegon.

[Impossible if it is the way it is. However, it is likely that his essence is rooted in a land of great vitality.]

“It's not going to take as long as my case, is it? ”

Incarceration that has already been treated once (?), Blue Gone replied with a frustrating voice when Kim Sun-hyuk asked with an ugly face.

[After everything you've gained, now that you've come to blame me, you are truly a bold man. If it weren't for me, who could have brought back the death that was foretold, and who else would have given you such power?]

What did I get that didn't make Blue Gone colorful, or even Kim Sun-hyuk after Blue Gone's civil affairs?

[It won't take long.]

“I can't wait. ”

Blugon nods at his roots, a large head, and suddenly hits Goldrake.

Rrrrgh!

Goldrake, who had remained at least rational due to Margie's erosion, did not even recognize that Bluegon was an ally. He clenches his black, discolored teeth and bursts into a frenzy toward the sea dragon.

But Goldrake, who had already become half a beast, could not bear the bluegun.

[His grumbling must also be borne by you.]

Blue Gone's voice was unclear. It seems as if you want Goldrake and his relationship to be wrong.

“Goldie wouldn't blame me. ”

[You might say that because you don't know how terrible it is to be away from the source of a dragon.]

“Even so… hmm…. ”

When he heard the screams of the desperately resisting goldrake struggling with his whole body, he felt a little bit lost for sure.

“But there's no other way. ”

What's the grudge? That's later. Now I have to stop Goldrake from turning into a dragon.

* *

Less than a day after Goldrake was dragged away by Bluegon, a large fleet appeared across the horizon.

“The second fleet has returned! ”

It was a fleet of Iberians on their way to mainland to transport reinforcements.

“Commander!”

Surprisingly, many of the Reich's reinforcements included foreigners. They were foreigners of the Central Knights, including Magistrate Kim Woo-young, who envied and became jealous of Kim Sun-hyuk at first, but who eventually admired and followed him during the war with Noktae.

“We're here too. ”

It was Lee Soo-hyuk, the leader of the men who looked down calmly, as opposed to Kim Woo-young, who was racing in a panic.

“I missed you. ”

Choi Min-young who was standing next to the men who lowered her head quietly ran to the face with tears.

“Ah…. ”

You see the cheerful faces with tails behind them, followed by reinforcements.

“We are the starting line. ”

However, Kim Woo-young surprisingly said that they were not all.

“Our job is primarily to help Iberia, and we're going to push the wire back with the foundation behind us. ”

What kind of magic did Ofelia cast while she was away from the Empire? Kim Sun-hyuk was surprised at the power of the empire that drew such troops, in addition to troops marching towards the Rosehog Kingdom.

But I didn't have time to enjoy the weather.

[I've done everything I can, so once I get rid of Margie, she'll come out on her own.]

Bluegon, who had left Goldrake somewhere, told me it was time to head into battle.

Kim Sun-hyuk left Granado without waiting for the model of Adenberg to arrive soon.

“Let's go.”

In his words, the bluegun begins to climb up the river through the currents.

And when Kim Sun-hyuk began to march towards Sevilla Fortress, the tide of the continent began to rock again.

* *

“What! The Grand Duke is back! ”

The Pope was frightened to hear that the Grand Duke was heading for the front line.

“He will never fail. ”

For such a Pope, one of the archbishops smiled maliciously.

“If he values my siblings. ”

“Have you used your hands already? ”

The Archbishop nodded and replied.

“It's not that hard to tie a man to a vicious bond like the Victorious Duke. ”

Around that time, a strange rumor began to circulate on the front lines of Iberia. When Sun-hyuk Kim heard the rumor, it was at the end of the river deep enough for Bluegon to pass through.
