Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

“Was it true?! ”

The scout gives a big nod to the Marquis of Robyn, who asks with a look full of horror and disbelief.

“Yes!”

The scout's voice was full of certainty. Nevertheless, the Marquis of Robain was still a look on his face. The scout replied with a confident voice, but on the one hand it reminded me of a point of disbelief on his face.

‘Well, it's hard to believe even if you saw it yourself. ’

The Marquis of Robyn insists on reassuring himself and confirms it again.

“Say that again. ”

“Yes, some of the fortress logs of the Luo Kingdom troops have been broken down and your flag has been raised. We've actually seen Confederate troops occupying the fort. ”

"Hmph, that guy! I knew something had happened, but I didn't think it would be this big... ’

The late Robyn frowns slightly as he strokes his stubborn beard for a few days. But I don't feel bad about it. Rather, I even felt the strangely pleasant feeling of a slight lift in the tail of one mouth.

Along with a short, seemingly visible smile, the Marquis of Robyn nods loudly.

“Jin-gun! ”

The Marquis of Robain sprints forward, horrified by the end of his shout.

“Waaaahhhh! ”

Later, with a huge shout, the southern defense forces have begun to march towards the fortress of the Luo Kingdom. A deeper smile came to mind at the mouth of the late Robyn. This battle won't take place, but it's still less prestigious than a fortress, so it's polite to walk around casually.

All three major roads connecting the northern and southern mountains of Acronia converge in one place. Among them, the fortress in the southern Luo Kingdom has a three-pronged road leading out into the open plains, precisely to the plateau. It wasn't very extensive, but it was a pretty big place for the army to meet.

The fortifications that the Ruo Empire has built here are also advantageous because you can see the movement of the incoming enemy at a glance.

Two or two!

The swiftly lowered Marquis of Robyn turns from the corner. And that thing that caught his eye.

Huh!

The eyes of the Marquis of Robyn are tightened.

It was because I saw the broken scroll and the armor of Bren Kingdom on the scroll.

The Rovine Marquis doesn't slow down at all, but it's only a month before he rushes to the gates of the keep before he gives you the strength of his grip. And after seeing the scene beyond the door, he looked nervous.

‘Earl Frost……. Marquis Holtz!

But it also smiles something very satisfactory, in a moment. It was because the look on the Marquis of Holtz's face could not be so bizarre.

“Phew, Phew! ”

The Marquis of Holtz chose his breath several times. I try to take a deep breath, but my surprised breasts don't calm down.

However, as he examined it, his efforts began to steady his breathing gradually. I had very little time to look at the situation. Of course, the thought in my head began to be a little clearer.

And I was able to understand the situation little by little.

The fortress in the Kingdom of Luo was occupied by Earl Procurus and Earl Gronst, and Lycaen and Cais captured the commander of the Royal Luo Army alive.

The Confederate forces have lately leapt into the fortress of the Ruo Kingdom Army, but have not built a particularly prominent ball.

Earl Holtz tried to force himself to understand and accept those facts. However, there was no denying what was visible.

But that was as far as he could go.

How Rikkien and Caith were supposed to be dead and alive. How they're laying siege to the Ruo imperial commander. And how Earl Frost and Earl Gronst captured the fortress of the Luo Kingdom.

I couldn't understand it even if I hit him.

And shortly thereafter, another situation that Lord Holtz could not comprehend.

Waaaahhhh!

Two or two!

Suddenly, the heavy footsteps resonate from behind. Earl Holtz turns his head in a hurry, surprised by the sound of a sizable army moving. It felt like my heart was sinking, wondering if the Luo Kingdom troops had returned.

However, the flag that flared at the head of the troops rushing this way did not belong to the Kingdom of Luo. But that made it even more problematic. Under a black hawk with four wings symbolic of the Bren Kingdom, a southern change bag, Earl Robyn, was on his way from the lead. With a weird smile on your mouth.

“W-why are you here……. ”

Seeing the Marquis of Robyn arriving in front of him one day, Earl Holtz gives a glance at something, and the end of the sentence blurs.

I didn't have a clue what to say because it was complicated in my head.

‘This guy……. ’

Marquis Holtz stares at Lycaen with his lively eyes. I didn't know the details, but I knew enough about all of this to know that Lycaen was behind it.

Marquis Holtz stares at Lycaen without taking his own life. However, there was a quite distressing expression on his face.

"How do I do this? ’

Marquis Holtz was a pathologically aspiring man. In the meantime, he was unconditionally opposed to the plans of the late Rovanese Empire Army and later marched into the fortress.

Despite the bizarre turn of events and the fact that he was caught up in Lycaen's conspiracy, there was only one thing in his head. How do I get my own ball from the Ruo Royal Army Fortress?

Earl Holtz, who has been alone for a long time, suddenly looks up, shivering. However, for a moment, I ordered Earl Crion, the First Division Master, with a stern expression on his mind.

“Capture both Earl Gronst and the Earl of Prokers, who have broken my command and deserted their encampment! ”

Earl Crion, stunned by the words, frowns and hisses as the words of Earl Holtz burst.

“What are you doing? Disobeying the orders of the exhibition is a felony. Catch them now! ”

Then Lycaen and Caith step forward to the Marquis of Holtz.

“That's not going to work. ”

“How dare you defy me? ”

Earl Holtz growls, and Lycaen shrugs.

“That can't be right...... Isn't it unreasonable for me to arrest him for no reason? ”

“No reason. I ignored my order not to leave the fortress, and left the garrison unauthorized. You're not guilty of disobeying and deserting orders! Moreover, if you attack the enemy stronghold too hard, your allies could be in danger. If our Confederate army hadn't arrived in time.... ”

Not only will the two erls turn deserters into deserters, but they will also make their own silver balls to capture the fortress of the Ruo Kingdom Army. Of course, the fact that the two Earls occupied the Royal Forces fortress of the Luo Kingdom was known to everyone here except the late Robyn.

‘There you go. ’

One of Lycaen's lips bulges.

Earl Holtz was talking about desertion and bringing up the unrelated occupied fortress together, which was hard to fathom because it was so obvious. If you return the capture of the fortress of the Luo Kingdom to your credit, it would mean that you would not let Earl Frost and the Earl Gronst escape.

The problem was that the person he was dealing with was not just Lycaen.

“They didn't escape. ”

“We did what we were told. ”

The words of Lycaen and Caith alternately raise the Earl of Holtz's eyes.

“How dare you make fun of me! The sins your armies have committed are like the sins you have committed! ”

However, little tension was found on the faces of Lycaen and Caith. Rather, I smile on my face.

Caith said with a face that he didn't understand.

“Repeatedly, they followed our orders, and how is that a sin?" ”

Of course, that's a ridiculous story for Earl Holtz. How did Lycaen and Caith, who were surrounded by hostiles, give orders to their armies?

“Huh, you give them orders? How dare you lie like that in front of someone? Do you think you can get away with deceiving me? ”

Despite the Marquis of Darkness, Lycaen was still relaxed. and asks the big question.

“Why is it a lie that I gave the order? ”

“How can you give them orders when you've been missing all of a sudden and show up here? ”

Lycaen grins at Anton with a grin as if he were lying to himself. And Caith gestures at him as well.

Anton and Shylon take something out of their arms and give it to the two earls. One sheet of paper each. And Lycaen and Caith immediately put it out in front of the Marquis of Holts.

I was embarrassed by the two eyes of Earl Holtz as he unfolded his paper. But for a moment, he grunts at Lycaen and Caith with an evil look.

“What's wrong with this piece of paper? Stuff like this. I don't care if you give it to me after you meet me inside. ”
