Chapter 16. Force majeure

Meanwhile, the Ho Chi warriors were gathering prisoners under a tree and holding a short meeting.

“5 Warriors, Griffon Stage 2 Lost. Twenty-five prisoners were captured. Reports that you have successfully terminated the anomaly operation. ”

“Well done.”

“There are twice as many prisoners captured in the last operation. Five of them are Imperial soldiers. Maybe they planted it on purpose... ”

“I don't care. Classify it the way you always do. ”

A heavy conversation ensued.

For them, this raid was part of a routine that was nothing special. Since that day, more than a hundred years ago, the Ho people have lived solely to fight.

A man in a mask decorated with red feathers ordered low toward the warriors.

“This Node will be abandoned after today. ”

“Yes!”

Unlike the usual common sense that he would be hiding in his stronghold, the Ho Chiefs were directly involved in the raid and were leading the front line.

The king reigned as the greatest warrior and planner, leading the way in almost every battle.

Along with the red mask I'm wearing, the twin spears that Griffon's claws were planted with were symbols of the king.

Driving a Griffon, a spear on the ground, and a bow on the air have taken the breath of countless enemies.

The power he possessed was the best of the tribe.

The morale of the warriors of the Ho Clan soared as they stood brave without losing their bodies.

A leader with outstanding power, intelligence, and craftsmanship has begun to reverse the history of the Ho Ho family, which has failed to accomplish this since it was defeated by the Empire at the same time as it came to power.

“Dissolution.”

The King of the Hoes closed the meeting neatly.

When the warriors find my location and scatter Urr, he asks for the rest of the deputies next to him.

“Where did you put the prisoners? ”

“I tied the Griffons to a shelter tree and entrusted Ferry with surveillance. ”

Griffon is a species that originally lived in lush forests or high mountains.

They were instinctively attracted to trees.

I did not nest like a bird, but I cleaned and inhabited a tree that could sleep on my back.

The tree Griffon chose was called the 'Shelter Tree’.

And while they were staying at this base, a large nettle tree tied up the prisoners served as a stables for the Griffons to rest.

The king, who received the report, laughed at the feeding.

“Did you leave it to Perry? I doubt he's fulfilling his watchdog role properly. ”

The ferry was a griffon with a large, powerful sequence among them.

In fact, the highest sequence was the King's Griffon ‘Alpha’, but it was attached to him because of the cathartic nature of listening only to his master's orders.

The Alpha was still following behind him, wandering like the shadow of a king.

“I heard you caught a lot of headaches. I can't even use it and it's hard to make everything into a pile of junk. ”

Can ferries control other Griffons who have found shelter trees instead of the highest sequence?

What the king was concerned about right now was not the escape of the prisoners, but their safety.

“It won't be. Ferry is a loyal Griffon who will devote his life to his mission. ”

The deputy answered unshakeably.

With a tone of trust poured into his ear, the king turned to a shelter tree that gathered prisoners of the body.

It was not due to suspicion that Griffon would replace the prisoners he had captured with one meal.

It was just a prank.

The king had the habit of checking anything with my eyes.

Daily direct participation from the start of the operation to the planning, progress and reporting of results. Especially when I caught a prisoner, I looked face-to-face to determine his identity and talent.

His snowflake was accurate, and anyone who was from a country that could ask for a large ransom or could be used to help was filtered right away from him.

“I'll take you straight to headquarters if you have a knack for it. The rest of them will be listed in Verdi after 3 days.. ”

The king's lips were firmly shut, turning around the tents which he had set up temporarily, and instructing the deputies as he always did.

Suddenly, when the king was silent, the officer who looked forward with a suspicious face opened his eyes.

The deputy, who had only spoken a few times like a crustacean, barely pulled out his voice.

“Hey, what the hell! ”

The spectacle unfolded before my eyes.

Weary Griffons, who had come to carry out guerrilla raid operations, flocked to the shelter as they expected.

After all, Ferry was unable to control all nine of his people.

“ ……. ”

The masked king's black blue pupils shake sharply. I put my strength into the palm of my hand with the spear.

‘Obedience.'

It was the right word to express the current situation.

A total of ten Griffons fell at the feet of a boy.

Perry, who was in charge of surveillance, was flipping the boat and dropping all patriotism per bala.

The king looked at me and could not believe my eyes.

It is Griffon who will never follow anyone other than the master who is tamed by his natural temperament. It was even possible because it was a Ho family who had a long history with Griffon.

However, his relationship with the Hoes and Griffons was close to that of a colleague.

I've never seen those griffons fall to someone or flip their bellies to show their obedience.

Even the newborn Griffon doesn't show his belly to my parents. Ships are small. They listen to their master's orders and feel intimacy, but they do not obey absolutely enough to risk their lives.

"He's been taken prisoner? ’

The laughter burst out. The king of the Ho Clan slowly searched the situation before his eyes once more.

He is a middle-aged boy who has not yet had an adult ceremony.

I didn't even look that strong on brown hair and the appearance of nothing special.

I even looked a little weak.

However, at the feet of the boy, all the Griffons fell down and showed obedience and awe.

It's a scene I never imagined.

It was absurd, but I couldn't grasp the pained ribs to see what action to take.

The boy first noticed his miracle and lifted his head as the king did not move firmly in place.

A clear golden pupil gazes at him quietly.

There is nothing special about it. When I encountered the eye that I considered, my shoulders that had been stiffened were released.

In the gold of mild light, as when an adult saw a child, there was a power to reassure a person.

The king took one breath and asked in a low voice.

“Who is it?”

“ ……. ”

“Who is it?" he asked. What purpose did you come here for? ”

There was no answer.

The face of the king in the mask was distorted when the opponent looked back without answering his question.

He said again that he was buried without hiding his unpleasantness.

“Wizard? You're capable of defeating all the Griffons. You must have strong abilities. Did you spend time at the Imperial Palace? ”

“That's right, coming from the imperial court. In this case," came "is more appropriate than" sent. "”

I didn't even think about hiding who I was.

The king was overwhelmed by a ferocious immorality as he watched a gentle boy answer.

‘Yes, you must think of us as something that can erase us at any time! ’

It was difficult to call the Ho Clan a tribe or a nation at this time.

It was just stragglers floating around without a root.

During the junior era, the country was swallowed up by territorial warfare and the dynasty was trampled miserably.

All that remains is the warriors who gave up giving up.

The king's descendants and warriors, who barely maintained their harmony, hovered around the land as if it had been taken from them.

“You finally want to suppress the fire you left over a hundred years ago? ”

‘Why are you here now? ’

The Ho was ethnic.

They would rather be trampled to death, but never tried to be ruled. That is why I have constantly persisted in the dispute, knowing that it is a rock strike with eggs.

Meanwhile, my greed grew.

The Lubarzan Empire did not take full care of the vast expanse of land. There was already much corruption in it. There was no room to focus on the weak guerrillas who fought outside the border.

Within the Empire, an invisible Cold War was maintained between the unstable empire, the new empire, and the aristocrats, and constant replacement took place.

While the Empire was distracted, the Hoes had a plausible home, and hard-trained warriors were not pushed to confront the Empire army.

Looking at the laughter of newborn children, they peered at the clothing of the goddess of hope.

“Are you the leader? ”

“Yes. I am Jose Taigel, king of the Hoes warriors. Tell me what you want. ”

King José responded remarkably calmly.

Contrary to the burning anger, the snow was freezing cold.

“How can we stop hurting the Empire? ”

“Why should we stop? ”

“Is there a reason not to stop? ”

The bold tone was rather disturbing.

The boy was talking like he was stopping a war between kids that he thought was so obvious.

“Your empire is the enemy of our land. Do we need more reason to destroy the enemy? ”

“The Territorial War was already over a hundred more years ago. ”

So I don't even admit it as an enemy.

Jose, who understood his words, could not bear the wrath, and he blew his spear.

“How ridiculous is the resolve of the people in those arrogant eyes! ”

Chain fluid!

Jose's spear was fast.

As soon as he was born, he was exposed to conflict and grew up in training aimed at strong power.

Jose Taigel lost his father to war at the age of fifteen and became king.

For twelve years from then, he had already climbed the Griffon, lifted up his spear, crossed the border and grown into a seasoned longevity.

The end of the spear, chopped with excitement and slaughter, flew bitterly and tried to pierce the enemy's throat with a single blow.

Like lightning, the wings between them blocked the windows.

Oh, shit!

The sound of the bowl breaking and resembling it resounded.

The boy twists his direction in front of his nose and smiles at the window without giving too much attention to the side of his neck.

“Oh, he is too. It's not normal."

“...... You're not the usual one. ”

The king grabbed the spear, murmuring in vain.

Running around without even knowing what kind of abilities you have or if you have any colleagues.

I was impatient. The more I mixed with that boy, the more I felt like I was losing face.

Jose's gaze shifted sharply to the black-headed young man who blocked his spear. At some point he loosened the rope that bound his hands and guarded the boy's side.

The dagger he used to strike Jose's spear was not a great weapon, but a small dagger he had hidden in his sleeve.

“Is this a warning? Or..... ”

“Judas E. Lubarzan Archidion.”

It was neither a big nor a small voice, but José could not even budge when he heard it.

“What?”

“I have received no command from anyone, and have not yet made any decision. ”

Soft, but he never comes out of glaze.

From the beginning, I couldn't find fear or anxiety.

Judas was thoroughly superior among them.

“I'm here to hear your story. ”

Jose seemed to know a little more about why the proud Griffons fell at his feet.
