Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 11. Emperor of the Empire (2)

But Lycaen shakes his head.

“You want me to shove my head into a tiger's jaw? ”

“Yes?”

“If it's your house, of course it has your troops. Why go there? ”

Elisha looks bored for a moment, then suddenly says with a provocative expression.

“Hmmm! It's so small... ”

There's no way he could have said something nice to Lycaen.

“Don't make a fuss!”

Of course, it wasn't Elisha who was going to die.

“Huh! Did I say something wrong? ”

“Have you thought about that? ”

“What are you thinking? ”

“I'm just more comfortable killing you and covering it up around here. ”

“Yes?! ”

Surprised, Elisha shrugs. The Knights of the Twilight who were with her have long been abandoned in the desert. Elisha was the only one who knew that Lycaen was currently holding the golden hall in question.

Lycaen smiles coldly at Elisha, unable to speak a word.

“So just shut up. ”

“Oh, okay! ”

Elisha's insides boil, but she can't help but keep her mouth shut.

‘Ahh! What happened to me? ’

He was confident that no one would defeat him. And I've never lost before. But the only person who couldn't do it was Lycaen. It was neither stuffy in front nor back, nor was it simply suppressed by force. Strangely, I could not win with words.

Lycaen summons Elisha after she has made her stay near the gates of Kwentium.

“Now, what do we do? ”

“The best way is for me to take the goods and get the promise from the Emperor... But you don't want that, do you? ”

“Don't take it for granted. ”

“Then I'll have to contact the Knights first and meet our people at night. ”

“Then we should do it. Contact me.”

“Get up."

A faint voice rings in Wolf's ears.

“Huff!”

Wolf's mouth is stunned and someone's hands strangle him.

“Quietly get up. ”

Turning your eyes, it was Lycaen who was blocking his mouth. Wolf gives you a surprised nod.

Lycaen takes his hand off the Wolf's mouth and says,

“Quietly wake those two up and get them ready. ”

Lycaen gestures at Tom and Jack. Lycaen rented a big room for four to sleep in to prevent the crowds from spreading.

“I understand.”

Wolf comes out of bed quietly, terrified to be finished. Meanwhile, Lycaen heads to the next room where Elisha and Yulia are staying.

“Who...! ”

Tub!

As Lycaen opens the door, Julia jumps up and shouts. No, I tried to scream, but Lycaen quickly blew away and shut me up.

“Shh!”

Julia nods slowly, noticing the situation in Lycaen's voice.

“Wake him up and come to our room. ”

Shortly after, all six of them were gathered in Lycaen's room.

“The inn is surrounded. ”

Lycaen says Wolf is furious and about to get up, but he quickly sits back on his hands again.

“Elisha, what happened? ”

Lycaen knows no one in the capital of the empire, Kwentium. Moreover, no one would act hostile on such a large scale. There was only one Elisha with ties to this place, Kwentium. And if it had anything to do with Elisha, a knight of twilight was more likely.

However, Elisha was also embarrassed.

“All I had to do was call in secret tomorrow morning. ”

“Then why are they surrounding the building? ”

“I don't know... ”

Lycaen smiles at Elisha while thinking of something.

“Looks like you've been abandoned. ”

“W-what's that? ”

“There's no reason for us to be hostile. ”

“Maybe he's not one of us. ”

“In Kwentium, the Sulfur Province known for its good security, do you think it is possible for troops of this size to move? ”

“Even so……. ”

Lycaen asks again, as Elisha looks for something to say, blurring her words.

“Aren't you the traitor because you've been disconnected for so long? ”

“It can't be. I'm empowered, and I can act at my own pace unless it's more than half a year old. ”

“But this is the reality. ”

“Let me tell you a story first. ”

Elisha gives you a nod, asking you to do whatever you want.

As you slowly approach the window, Elisha opens the inner window and opens the outer side door. At that moment.

Easy!

The cold wind blows over Elisha. And Lycaen swiftly swings his spear.

Tak!

An arrow bounced off Elisha's nose with a light noise.

Shh-shh-shh!

Several arrows were then poured out of the window.

“Stay away, you idiot! ”

Lycaen hurriedly pushes Elisha out of the window. At the same time, ten arrows slide through the window and into the room.

Lycaen asks for Elisha.

“Do you want to talk about it? ”

However, Elisha is already in great shock and has no reaction.

Lycaen, who tapped Elisha on the shoulder, said to the knights, stiffening her impression.

“We need to get out of here. ”

Elisha speaks in an urgent voice, having slowly recovered her senses.

“What are you going to do when you get out? If we get caught here, we can meet up and talk. ”

“Are you crazy? You could get caught and take something and die! I knew it was a mistake to even think about talking to the Emperor. ”

Lycaen had two paths. How to negotiate with the Emperor by placing the goods and removing Elisha to cover up the work itself.

But I knew that covering things up wouldn't solve it. This is because Elisha's disappearance does not mean the emperor will give up the pursuit of the goods. That's why I was going to try to negotiate, but that's why I've been doing all the hard attacks before I even checked. Then I had no choice but to think of another way.

Elisha asks again.

“So what are you going to do? ”

“First we have to think about it after we get out. ”

Rikkien, who had a firm mind, said to Wolf,

“Coming out the back door! ”

Sheik! Sheik!

Arrows shoot out of the window at the end of the hall on the second floor of the inn.

Puck!

On the rooftop of the building across the street, the two archers who were pulling the demonstration towards the inn fell flat.

“What the hell! ”

The archer next to you hurriedly lowers his head and stares at the inn window. But what you see beyond the window is nothing but darkness.

“What happened? ”

It was time for the archer to look through the window again with a serious look on his face. Suddenly, something shines through the darkness.

“Huff!”

The moment you try to lay flat on the roof, the arrow protrudes out of the darkness and enters the archer's forehead through the window.

Yulia. She hides herself in the darkness at the other end of the hall window and fires an arrow.

The other archers noticed the situation and bounced back to the window.

But it wasn't easy. The window was wide open, but it was never easy to put an arrow through it and hit the enemy beyond. The size of the square window frame limits the angle at which the arrow can penetrate.

At the very least, the three who were able to shoot the arrow were the first to be hit by Julia's arrow.

Pa-Bak! Pa-Bak!

The arrows rest restlessly on the inside and outside walls of the windows.

Heave-ho!

At that moment, the door at the bottom opens and four souls pop out.

“Screw you! ”

Leading the way, Lycaen screams and flies between the surrounding prosecutors.

Lycaen, who jumped into the enemy camp in one fell swoop. As the prosecutors hurriedly swing the longsword towards Lycaen, the layer in Lycaen's hand draws a slow semicircle. Four sacks of Longsword swarming, and a slow layer to cope with it.

The prosecutors were prepared to be handed over shortly. A terrifying sensation transmitted by piercing the human body. This is because there is no way that a thin, slow-moving rapier can stop his longsword.

Ka 'ang!

Surprisingly, the metal and the repulsive force coming from your hand halt and you see your longsword. And the rapier that clings to that longsword.

“Hmm?! ”

It couldn't have happened. Longsword must have pierced through his shoulder before this rapier can attach itself to his blade. There is no reason to hesitate. The prosecutor pushes in with more strength into his hand.

Caucasian!

Three times in a row this time.

“Suck!”

One rapier entangles four sacks of Longsword. The moment the four swordsmen check their swords with their ungrateful faces.

“Ugh!”

A groan came out of your mouth at the same time. Huge pressure to depress the Longsword. Cold talk digging under his chin with him.

Chook!

The slight noise echoes four times in a row.

“Shhh!”

Four voices scream at the same time.

Cheolphuduk!

Four prosecutors whose chin is split vertically and bleeding out. And Lycaen snatches Longsword from one of the prosecutors' hands before their bodies touch the ground.
