I am the Monarch

< Chapter 19 Salvation >

------------------------------------

Simon is more of an appendix, to be honest.

I made great efforts to earn the attention and love of my father, Denny III, and as a result I possessed a ridiculous swordsmanship.

The problem was his temperamental nature and excessive ambition.

He was too obsessed with his person because of the loss he suffered during his growing up.

If the opponent does not respond to the faith and love he gave, he is furious. Betrayal. Betrayal. Nothing to say.

Once I was angry, I did not cover my front or back.

To the extent that I cannot expect the right judgment.

Had it not been for his grandfather, Duke Bradley Webster, he would have already lost the throne race.

But even after that Bradley is cut off by Simon's hand.

Simon has been showing signs of becoming a berserker since he was a boy.

Of course, there were other things that had a profound impact on Simon's personality, but only Bradley, Simon, and the worst of them knew about it.

“My prince, it's not going to be easy. ”

Ralph Tynes, who led the base and drove the Baron Luke Eif back to the ruins.

Simon trembles all over.

“Elton, isn't Elton's coat coming? ”

“They're just waiting at the rear of the northern village. They're not moving. ”

Ralph lowers his head in disdain.

At that moment, Simon's face distorted horribly.

"Elton! How dare you..."

I split my teeth by myself.

It means that Elton hasn't moved until now, which means he either betrayed himself or wasn't his person from the start.

"I don't know anyone else, but you betrayed me!" ’

Elton owns quite a large territory among the barons and has been stripped of his abilities.

He was so determined to compete for the throne.

With his wit and help, he has been able to overcome the crisis several times since the actual capture.

Besides...

‘He is a distant relative of his grandfather. ’

He was definitely the successor to the blood of the Duke of Webster, though he was a guard.

He was an outsider to Simon, and he was more trustworthy than anyone.

But that Elton Court was the traitor.

‘I didn't know that, so I asked him to keep track of the trends of our nobles.......’

I thought that's why I found out that Baron Luke Eif and Baron Mito Posis were spies.

It really looks good on you.

“You little bugger. ”

With a cold voice, a swearing speech popped out.

Simon stares at the battlefield, enraged.

The battle is accelerating.

“Seize the prince! ”

“I will give the prince's head a great bounty! ”

The barons have marched towards the center of the university, as if killing Simon was the end of it.

Earl Lancefield and his troops made a firm line of defense, but the numbers were too steep.

It was clear that the line would soon collapse.

“Prince! You need to stay away from yourself! ”

Io exclaimed with an urgent expression.

So is Ralph.

Simon, however, remains motionless with his two fists crossed.

How dare you betray me? ’

My trembling body became bigger.

At that moment, the bloodshot eyes sparkle and glow.

At the same time, my brown eyes turned dark.

"Oops!"

Ralph, who was watching, looks surprised.

"If he talks to you, he'll run off again!" ’

He hurriedly gestures toward the back.

The Leo Knights, Simon's nearest and most powerful force, rush in.

They settle down skillfully with Simon in the center.

In each hand were Naranki ropes and ropes twisted around the Ogre's tendons.

Io, who was watching the situation, just made a puzzled face.

‘What is this…? ’

Ralph carefully moves and grabs Simon's arm.

“Prince, you mustn't waver here. Please stay with me. ”

A desperate voice.

“There are many more who believe in the prince. So please.......”

Ralph lowers his head, almost crying.

Then.

Pair!

I heard a loud rupture.

Simon slaps himself on the cheek.

My lips burst and my cheeks turned red.

“My prince!"

Ralph was surprised and came to Iow, who was watching the situation.

Simon shakes his hand, smiling bitterly.

“I'm fine.”

A calm voice.

Ralph quickly looks Simon in the eye.

The dark-bitten eyes returned to their original colors.

Got it!

He calls for inner joy and jabs at the Leo Knights.

The knights who were watching Simon with a nervous look quickly return to their stations.

“Ralph.”

“Yes, my prince. ”

“I woke up. ”

“No, I'm not.”

Ralph bows.

Simon smiles bitterly and looks forward.

“Die!”

“Break through!”

The baron's voice hits your ear.

The front is pushing back slightly.

Simon takes a deep breath.

‘You must first avoid the body. ’

It's been a long time since I've had a charter.

If you insist on not being here and are caught or die, everything that has been piled up so far has become a fog.

‘If I die here, Tommy and Column will have everything they need to justify this battle. ’

It was unacceptable.

‘This is my fault, without a doubt. ’

I should have listened to Roan.

It was a mistake to trust Elton so much.

And...

‘Nowadays, it's harder to control your anger. ’

I felt a clear change of body and mind.

‘The stronger the body, the weaker the heart. ’

Simon bites his lower lip.

‘Regret is useless now. It's all my choice. ’

It is true that it was originally somewhat hypertensive and less restrained.

However, this became extreme because of the Mana and the sword that Duke Bradley Webster had saved.

The Mana and the Sword that cannot be kept in the mouth.

‘You can't have a higher Mana level than this. ’

If I did, I was likely to lose my mind completely.

‘My grandfather asked the Holy Father for the New Testament, so I just need to endure it a little longer. ’

If you can only take the New Testament, you can get rid of dirty Margie cleanly and gain overwhelming power.

‘All you have to do is trust your grandfather. I first.......’

Simon's gaze is on Io.

‘We have to get out of here. ’

The brown eyes subside calmly.

“Earl Lancefield. If Elton was right about betraying me, that's not all. Then it will be quite difficult to get out of here. But.......”

He bows his head to Iow.

“I don't really feel sorry for Earl Lancefield, but I can't die yet. ”

“Wow, Prince. ”

Io was dumbfounded.

Simon raises his head and looks into Iow's eyes.

“How do I get out of here? Is there any way I can survive? ”

It's so unpredictable.

It was Simon, who had just been driven by anger.

But he was regaining his composure.

"Can a normal person do this? ’

I even put out my tongue.

Moreover, I was extremely suspicious of what Ralph and the Leo Knights had just shown me.

However, the prince bowed his head and asked for it.

Something you can't ignore and refuse.

Io took a deep breath.

“I will form a patron with the Mainlanders and Saudis' Territories and support them with the Saudis' Knights. I will stall the enemy pursuit with the Leo Knights, the highest force there. Prince Tyne and the Baron.

Only go to Lem Village. ”

“To Trem Village......? ”

Simon asks with a curious expression.

Io replied with a confident voice.

“Amaranth's troops would have seen this coming. I'm sure Roan will come. He will come and save us. Just hold on until then.”

“Earl Lancefield is right, Prince. ”

With Ralph in hand, Simon nods.

“Very well. I'll do as Earl Lancefield says. ”

Ralph raises his sword high, terrified to the end.

“Retreat!”

“Phew!"

You hear voices of muttering in response to commands.

Simon shuts his mouth as he looks at Iow just before he leaves.

‘I will talk to you when I see you again. ’

I was going to bow my head and apologize for my actions today.

The Knights and Soldiers from the Mainland, which were scattered to the Central Heating, began to form a line.

Simon was the first one to leave.

After that, the Knights of the Realm and the Knights of the Duke of Webster followed closely.

Baron Mito Posis, who was about to break through the middle, yells at Simon.

“Huh? Wow, the prince is getting away! Chase!”

It's the same with Luke.

“Pursue!”

“You must capture the prince! ”

A crippling command.

Baron Luke Eif and Baron Mito Posis desperate.

There's only one way they can survive.

I was just cutting Simon's throat.

"to visit Prince Two with his head..."

Even if it's not.

‘Surrender to Byron or Istel and you will be greatly rewarded. ’

It was a wrong situation to live normally anyway.

They chase after Simon with their red faces.

“No! I can't let you do this! ”

Io shouts as he draws his sword.

At his command, soldiers from the headquarters and the erl build a defensive line.

After that, the Leo Knights swiftly swing their swords.

Cham! Cham! Chang!

A duel broke out between the pursuers and the stoppers.

The battle is swift.

* * *

‘Difficult.’

Ralph's face darkens.

He glances back, even as he runs restlessly.

The number of knights and soldiers that followed has clearly decreased.

The pursuit of Luke and Mito was truly spectacular.

Because they were risking their lives for this, too.

With only a few knights left to escort Simon, the rest of the soldiers and knights head back to help Iow.

‘And the bigger problem is…..’

As I ran toward the opening of the retreat, I saw that I was getting a little further away from the town of Trem that I had originally targeted.

‘In this state, it is annihilation. ’

But even so, there was no clear way to overcome this adversity.

I just wanted everyone to show up and save themselves.

Then.

Idiot!

You hear a sharp wave.

I lost a dark shadow to the sky above my head.

Bubble Bug!

The arrow rains down around Simon and Ralph.

“Ambush!”

“Move!”

A shout came from everywhere.

“Knng!”

“Huff!”

The unsuspecting soldiers fall like hedgehogs.

Hee-hee-hee!

The horse cried loudly and raised his front leg.

Simon and Ralph frown, staring at the dark hills leading to the left and right.

Troops rising above the hills.

That must have been Luke's unit.

Unit size is small.

But even Simon and Ralph's situation was difficult to deal with.

Even if we break through somehow, Luke and Mito's prototype will come after them in the meantime.

‘As much as the prince. ’

Ralph grips his teeth.

Then I hear Simon's voice.

“That's far enough. ”

He draws his sword with a grim expression.

“My prince.”

Ralph grips his teeth and bows.

Simon regards the troops that appear over the hill, regardless.

‘By the way, an ambush in a place like this....... You've prepared more thoroughly than I thought. ’

In fact, Luke's unit, which appeared in both hills, was a search party that scouted the area.

Bellefleur, who was leading the troops, was in a hurry to head north when he heard that Luke and Mito had been spotted at the base of the Territory.

‘And here I am, meeting the prince. ’

The situation was pure luck.

There's a smile on Bellefleur's mouth.

‘Just catch the prince and the road will open. ’

My heart was beating fast.

“Attack!”

He swung his sword and kicked the horse in the belly.

Ralph gives Simon a hard look.

I didn't have time to wait anymore.

“My prince! We will try to stop this place! Stay away from the prince! ”

“No, there's nowhere to run. ”

Simon grips his teeth.

Bellphish's troops, though small, are pouring down the hills to the left and to the right.

Simon doesn't see an escape route.

“Prince.......”

Ralph looks sad.

Simon nods, smiling and struggling.

The two looked at each other, then slightly lowered their heads.

Hardened last angle.

At the end of the day, I was going to let it all go and run wild.

Bellefleur screams, staring at Simon standing there like a fool.

“Prince! Take the prince! We don't need the others! ”

Velphas forces march on Simon.

“How dare you!”

Ralph takes the lead, shouting loudly.

A handful of knights followed.

Two or two!

The gap between each other was quickly narrowed.

Then.

Idiot!

There was a tearing hole in the space.

At the same time, arrows appear from beyond the hills.

An arrow that flies through the wind.

The arrowhead shimmers with light.

Bubble Bug!

The arrow hits the void between the units with a bang.

“Huh?"

“What, what? ”

Bellefleur frowns and slows down as he makes a steady advancement.

Suddenly, you are half stunned by the sudden arrow attack.

Stop, are you serious? ’

Bellefleur's eyes are wide open.

Not only did Ralph march forward, Simon and the Knights looked surprised.

Their gaze naturally leads to the hills.

Then.

Phew! Phew!

The mighty trumpet sounds the battlefield.

At the same time, a squadron rises over the hill.

< Amaranth. >

At that moment, a joyful light appeared on Simon and everyone's face.

He was a soldier who waited so long to remember.

The only one who can save themselves.

It was Roan who appeared.

“Glad you're not late. ”

Roan reveals himself below the soaring base.

‘The Informants of Agents continued to raise the Beacon Mounds. ’

Agents across the Tail were unable to use force directly, but it was possible to pinpoint Simon's location.

They let Roan know that Simon is retreating southwest of Luke and Mito through the Beacon Mounds.

Thanks to this, the Roan and Amaranth forces were able to move their horses to the south-west of the tail region rather than the northern village.

After a short sigh, Roan gives the order in a low voice.

“Prepare to charge. ”

The soldiers in the rear lift the shield that was tied behind your back.

At the same time, he placed his chest on the horse's calf.

Roan's eyes gleam and glow.

“Break through the Rebels. ”

“Phew!"

Short answer.

At the same time, there was tremendous energy.

“Break through!”

The horses begin to gallop in fear of Roan's command.

It was, of course, Roan who was in the lead.

“Don't, stop! ”

The Velphas shudders and tugs at you.

The entire army stops marching and looks back at Amaranth's troops.

The sharp edges of your sword and spear tremble.

"Ooh, can we deal with, uh, Amaranth's troops? ’

‘The best troops in the upper tail area.......’

The Velphas troops swallow dry water with a desperate look on their faces.

They had already heard the deafening talents of Roan and Amaranth.

I've actually seen it several times.

Two or two!

The hoof sounds noisy.

And finally.

Boom!

Amaranth and Velphas battalion, led by Roan with a loud bang.

Armies advance the shield, bouncing off Velphas' swordsmen and spearmen.

“Knng!”

“Hehe!”

The spear breaks and the sword bounces off.

Instead of slowing down the horse, the horse jumps fiercely.

In the meantime, Roan pulls out Travis' spear and swings.

Screaming!

A stream of blood gushes out with a eerie sound.

The Velphas army was never the enemy of the Amaranth Army.

Moreover, I wrote down the number.

Pa!

The horse that burns Roan leaps to the ground.

Drawing a wire and cutting the wind.

It was very strong and beautiful.

Tadak!

The horse leaps over the soldiers and lands softly.

There were no more obstacles in the way.

Roan quickly stepped off the horse and took a short ordinance.

“Prince, are you hurt? ”

Simon, who was watching the battlefield, woke up late.

He nods with a somewhat lonely expression.

“Without pity, I am safe. ”

When Roan hears the answer he was hoping for, he lowers his head briefly and turns back.

Meanwhile, Amaranth's men have successfully breached Velphas' forces.

With a gesture of his hand, Roan straightens up the ranks and slowly moves forward.

He squeezes Travis' spear and stares at the beltface with a dazed expression.

Cold and bitter eyes.

Gulp.

Velphas swallows a dry saliva without even knowing it.

Roan sighs slowly, pointing towards him with Travis' spear.

“From now on…..”

A calm voice.

I feel a rush of energy in my hand with my spear.

Simon and Ralph and the knights all listened to Roan's voice.

At that moment, you catch a faint smile on Roan's mouth.

“This battlefield is received by the Amaranth troops. ”
