Hero without Blood or Tear

[72] Old Medusa. (2)

Rheinfelden was eventually captured by the Demon King Ahunde. Arunde, the Demon King who surrounded the Sanctuary, marched to Rheinfelden to commemorate victory.

The sights of the city were truly miserable. Hundreds of citizens were dying and floating on the water. The strange-looking Shamans gnaw at the corpses.

Ooh-ooh-ooh.

The sound of the corpse's bones breaking is endless. The city that is currently underwater was a town hall on a hill. In front of the city hall, a dozen humans were on their knees.

They are surrounded by a large number of alphas and are half mesmerized.

“Ahh… ugh! ”

I was really sad that I was shaking my body with just a sudden groan. An old Medusa was admiring that.

“Th-the mayor is worthless than garbage. You're 200 florins. That's not for your ransom, that's for your clothes. ”

This creepy old Medusa is the Demon King of Water.

The lower half was a snake, and it was a monster with a lot of hair. It was old and ugly, but unlike such a flabby body, I felt powerful magic. And the unexplainable majesty surrounded her like a garment. In fact, it was the Demon King's style.

“Sa, please save me! ”

The captured mayor begged for his life in a state of piss. However, the Demon King Ahunde twitched his cheeks with snake scales. It seemed to laugh, and it seemed unpleasant.

“Your clothes are valuable, so I'll leave them with you. But since you're no more than flesh and blood, you need to be fed to Crocodile Humans. ”

“Please! Mercy! Shhhhh!”

Knuckles!

King Ahunde's hand broke the neck of Mayor Rheinfelden in one fell swoop. The grip strength of that thin and rough hand, like an old man, was surprising.

“Come on, let's see. Who's next?"

The prisoners desperately tried not to make eye contact with the Demon King Ahunde, but it didn't work. The Demon King Amunde mocked the victim and repeatedly snapped his neck. Every time I watched, the Shamans laughed.

At that moment, screams and shouts erupted among the Shamans.

“Khhh! Humans! ”

“Stop! How dare you! Grrrrr!”

This unexpected commotion flashed his eyes at the Demon King Ahunde.

“Hoho?”

Suddenly, it was an unnamed monster hunter. Armed with a bow, he was skilled. You shoot an arrow and swing your sword to break through a horde of horses in a heartbeat.

The Demon King Ahunde's men tried to stop them from reaching out to their owner, but they were avoiding them with demonic skills. He finally crosses the Horseman's Wall and fires an arrow at the Demon King Ahunde.

“Die! Demon King! ”

Thung!

The sound of bows bouncing was cheerful. The Demon King was also looking ahead at that moment.

Flash.

It seemed like the light was burning for a moment. And it was over. The hunter, who made a heroic attack on the Horsemen with all his might, hardened to stone in an instant. Even the arrows that were shot turned to stone were still floating in the air.

Glug.

You move the bottom half of the disgusting snake and head for the hunter at the Demon King Ahunde. She rubs her fingertips against the arrow that was still in the air.

“Heh-heh-heh.”

She smiles as if she likes the Petrified Hunter. It was surprising not to smile rarely.

“You are better than 100 soldiers. No one in this city has attacked the King. Your bravery is the best. It's worth 10,000 florins. Now be a stone and live forever. ”

She strokes the hunter as if he were lovely, and commands his servants.

“Move this hunter with respect. to add to the collection list. I will make him a trophy to take over Rheinfelden! ”

The Demon King thought everything was going according to his intentions.

The Demon King Pezamut is tied up in a battle with Roelin. The Sisters of Valfur have secured and sealed the siege. And convinced General Gugoshrack, commander of the Pezamut army west of the Rhine, to betray his master.

‘There's only one thing left. ’

An army of recent forces east of the Rhine just dealt with Earl Wittenweir.

‘Earl Wittenweir said Balfur was close enough to receive the support of the Sisterhood. I'm sure they'll send reinforcements. I'll send my men in there to eat Bittenbuyers. ’

Everything that is happening now has been an elaborate plan that she has long waited for and carefully made. It started when I joined forces with the Demon King Pezamut to fight Roelin. The Demon Lord Pezamut was also just a chess piece playing out of her hands.

“This is a really 3 million Florin plan. ”

* * *

I carefully predicted the Demon King's plan. And I was able to come to some kind of conclusion.

“Papenheim.”

“Yes, Lord. ”

“Did you know that every Demon King has a tactical trait? ”

“Of course. In Harfheim, Pezamut defeated Philipp using both ambushes and treachery. ”

“That's right. Exactly. ”

So this time I asked him what the tactical traits of the Demon King Arunde were. Papenheim shakes his head for a moment.

“I don't know because my experience is poor. ”

“Especially if you're not investigating the Demon King. Papenheim, the characteristic of the Demon King of Water, is clear. More than just the right kind of help to feed it. ”

The old beast has destroyed many Demon Kings and Human Emperors with cunning to this day. At first, everyone was working with her.

“I will never fight the Demon King alone. Move only after you've secured the helper. ”

“That's what the lord said. She has another accomplice. You mean the Demon Lord Pezamut? ”

The Demon King Ahunde is working with the Demon King Pezamut to attack Roelin. However, the battle falls into a disadvantage.

“Pezamut is currently unable to misunderstand Roelin. ”

It may seem like the devil King Ahunde's plan to fall into such a situation, but nothing is certain yet. After all, the Demon King Pezamut was an outcast. His army was currently at Innsbruck fighting Roelin's army.

“So you're saying the Demon King of Water has found a new ally to attack this Southwest? ”

“That's right. Think about it. Papenheim. Is there anyone powerful in the Southwest of the Empire right now? ”

“That's the Lord Commander of the Demon Lord and the Demon King Pezamut, General Gugushirak. ”

But I haven't heard from him. Then there is only one answer.

“That must be General Orc Gujarak. ”

“Of course. Now, think about it here. Papenheim.What would the Orc General Gujarak want? He's loyal, but not greedy. ”

It shouldn't be a difficult deduction. When the Horses get stronger, there's only one thing they want after all.

“Are you promoting to the Demon King? ”

“Yes. I'm sure the Demon King Ahunde promised Gujarak a promotion to the Demon King." In return, he would have asked for your cooperation. Maybe after using her personality the way she wants to be. ”

This is not a ploy to achieve overnight. Maybe he's been flirting with Gujarak for a long time. Along with the Demon King, the promise of land upstream from the Rhine.

I haven't figured out all the Devil King Ahunde's plans yet. But it'll all come out.

It's just that she's teamed up with the Orc General Gujarak. Without the experience of the last round, it wouldn't have been so neat.

“Lord, if we move here easily, we may be caught in enemy traps. ”

“Yes. We don't know what they're up to. ”

But I have a hunch from my past experience, It's because I remembered how I was robbed by the Demon King Ahunde.

“Papenheim. Immediately seize all the nets of Wittenweir. And there's no fishermen left. ”

“I understand!”

“And tell General Tilly to prepare one cavalry, two infantry units for deployment. Three days later. ”

As Papenheim left, I got up and stood up nervous. Honestly, this is a huge crisis. I didn't expect this to happen as soon as I became Earl Wittenbuyer.

But I decided to let Margareta go quietly. First of all, Sister Valpurga won't shut down for half a year. It's a monastery, literally a super fortress for the Empire.

It never breaks easily. It is no coincidence that Balpur has effectively stopped the Demon King of the South and the Demon King Pezamut of the West from taking up residence at all points. So I decided to leave the fight to Margareta.

I decided to attack the Demon King Ahunde on my own terms. Waiting for the night, I summoned 100 walkers at once using the bodies from the river.

“Death Fighters, march on your master! ”

Now my commanding skills have risen to a real high ground. No mortal in the empire can summon 100 high vampire Daywalkers at once.

In fact, it was a great power given to a great soldier of darkness, who was crouching in the grave. I sprayed them all around with a wash cloth.

“Flood the Rhine to keep a close eye on General Orc's army. They will immediately cross the river and attack us if they get the chance. ”

“Very well! Lord. ”

“The rest go to Rheinfelden and keep an eye on the Demon King Ahunde's army. Also, be sure to keep an eye on the siege of the Sisters of Valfur. ”

“Very well! Lord. ”

“And the rest. Your mission is the most important. I have something to hide and scout on an island on the Rhine River. ”

I left with specific instructions for everyone. Now they're gathering a lot of information.

The next day, Papenheim brought in an enormous amount of nets. And all the fishermen, fishermen, are in a crowd.

“The Lord has summoned me. ”

Everyone was excited about what was good. These pigs don't even know I'm trying to work them. But I'm a gentle lord. I must try to hide my horse.

“Thank you for coming. I will repay you financially for the net I commanded. I'll also pay you for your hard work today. Cheer up. ”

“Are there any? Lord, I heard the Demon Lord has invaded. Don't worry, they'll do their best. ”

“That's a strong point. I like the spirit, but I want you to be strong enough not to get hurt. ”

“My lord! ”

The fishermen roasted in a heartfelt manner. Wow, these guys are easy. I led the fishermen to the Rhine. The Rhine is quite narrow. Soldiers can swim across easily.

Even the middle islands were narrower, so I didn't know if it was a river or what it was. I ordered you to find the right place and hit a bunch of nets.

“Install double and triple firmly. I hope it doesn't stain as much as possible. Even if the net is pierced, set up additional nets at intervals so that you can catch it again later. ”

“Are you going to catch all the fish in the river? My lord?"

“It's not a fish, but something like that. ”

“I'm not sure what it is, but I'll do as the Lord says. ”

Fishermen have been fishing in the river all their lives, so they have made good nets. Tilly greeted me after guiding me through the day.

“Lord. The troops you speak of are ready to march tomorrow. ”

“After three days, are you ready? ”

“Of course. The army must always be ready. ”

It was General Tilly. This is the man who manages my army, so I believed him.

“The general is in charge of this deployment. ”

“I thought you said you were leaving? ”

“That's what we're going to tell them in public. I'll lend you my armor, so wear it. ”

In short, Tilly masquerades as me.

“Since the curse is upon us, I will make a vow to undo it. The priests of the city will help you. ”

“More than that, isn't Valpur just going to save the convent? ”

“That's right. In fact, your troops won't fight. Just trying to get through to the enemy. ”

“I want to hear the plan. ”

I explained to Tilly in detail the current situation and my operations. Then he opened his mouth without ceasing to be amazed.

“The Lord always surprises me. How do you know so much about the Evil Water Demon King? It's as if you're reading one step ahead. This tilly, I cannot help but admire. ”

General Tilly, this has all been taught in the past by many, many, many evil Demon Kings.

“I have heard such compliments from a noble general. ”

“You are too modest. You are a military genius, as I thought. ”

“Thank you. Then proceed as planned. ”

The next day, Tilly marched out along a landscape that was crumbling with long tasting rains. It was prestigious, but not practical. The roads were a mess, so I couldn't carry a cannon for 100 meters, so I gave up.

It doesn't matter if his march is a ruse. Tilly's army calls out to the troops, blowing the trumpets and marching in tumult. It's as if we're advertising our progress towards the enemy.

So they left the next morning. I have an urgent call from the Magic Crystal Ball. From the Daywalkers hidden on an island on the Rhine.

“Lord! The Lord has spoken. Enemies are rising and falling rapidly! ”

“How many are there? ”

“I've had enough! They are all evil water-drawer beasts! ”

“I see.”

As soon as I got the report, I headed up a hill on the Rhine that I had been watching. As you climb the hill, the river with the net is visible at a glance.

Phage!

At that time, black lightning flashed from my hand as if I were responding to my will. I felt good and energized today. I groan and stand tall on the hill.

“You bastards. I'll show you the power of justice. ”
