Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter. 8. Snow Battle (5)

“Retreat!”

It was Rudia's cry in Circus.

This was Crohan's greatest move to harness life force.

And as soon as he used this technology, he was forced to faint, exhausting all of his powers.

As Rudia was aware of this, she was able to decide to retreat as soon as the technology exploded. Of course, Crohan expected Rudia to behave the same way.

Cough!

There was still a sound in the sky.

Meanwhile, Circus has been retreating.

“Grrrgh! ”

Lycaen wields his spear as he pulls out all the power from his body.

Kung, Kuku, Kung!

The sound changes. At the same time, the direction of the dark red energy twists along the spear that Licayen swings.

“Shhh!”

The direction of the dark red aura, which was pushed up like a storm, shifts as you hurl screams through your mouth.

Twisted transversely along the direction of the swinging bars.

“Get lost!"

Lycaen hollers and wiggles the cage completely. At that moment, you draw a large parabolic line, twisting in the direction where a dark red energy was rising completely from the side.

A dark red nugget that flew invisible to the end. And after a while.

Shhhhhhhhh!

The violent sound of the far-off energy hit my ears so hard that I couldn't even see it clearly. And after a while, it goes crazy.

“Huff, huff! ”

Lycaen comes down to the ground, his shoulders shrugged and he breathes.

“You okay?"

Friella rushes to you.

Lycaen nods, barely breathing.

“Of course, it's okay. And……. ”

A strange smile hangs over Lycaen's mouth, clouding his words.

"Haha, there's a way! ’

As soon as I thought it was hard to press fully with strength, it was nothing but blood that touched Lycaen's head. It used the energy of the soul as an herbal herb under the blood.

I had never thought to use a haemorrhage because it was too strong, but it was used this way.

Caith, who approached me one day, mutters, casting his gaze from afar.

“You're getting away with it! ”

At the end of Caith's gaze, he saw the back of Circus in a hasty retreat.

“Well, you were expecting this. ”

“Hehehe, yes. ”

In one hand, Caith nods, smiling, is caught by Rowan's lap, which is fainting with twin-nose blood.

Lycaen opens his mouth and says,

“So, shall we go back? ”

Chapter. 9. Owner of Circus (1)

The best combat unit.

It was a modifier used to follow Earl Frost during the Conquest War. And Crohan realized what that formula meant.

“I'll make you regret being alive! ”

Crohan mutters as he changes his teeth.

A painful defeat.

It wasn't real at all, but it was true. The 5,000 of Circus' elite, which he took with him, has fallen to nothing by the 2,000 troops Lycaen has brought with him. He has lost more than half his troops, and even Crohan himself cannot surpass Lycaen, and has been captured by the enemy as well as Roban, the second in Circus.

If we continue like this, it will be a wound to Crohan's pride until his death. In order for that to happen, I had to erase the existence of Lycaen from the world.

“Phew!”

Crohan takes a long sigh and heads down toward Lydia and Aaron, trembling at the bars.

“Gather all the troops across the entire continent! ”

Lydia, with her head down, shakes her flawed shoulders.

“Y-you mean... including the troops of the respective lords? ”

“Since when is it so hard to understand? ”

“It's not that... …. ”

“Can't you move right now! ”

Rudia says with a frightened look on her face.

“Master! There is another way. ”

“Another way? ”

“Mobilizing all of those troops could have a big impact on our plans ahead. But there is a way to do it without doing it. ”

Crohan doesn't like the idea that there is another way, but he nods, thinking about listening.

“Tell me. ”

“I-I didn't... I had someone say that to me. ”

“Hmm, who is that? ”

“I told them to call in and wait. May I come in? ”

Crohan nods, and Rudia points to the door.

“Come in.”

The door opens with fear of falling horses, and two men enter.

The man in front of you was Maral, and then a man followed you in with a hoodie pressed down.

“Maral?”

Aaron, who was sitting next to Lydia, looks at Maral's face and tilts his head.

He must have been Rowan's henchman, but he was surprised that he had gone under Rudia. But I didn't say a long word because I was in front of Crohan.

Crohan knew Maral, but didn't care. It's because I didn't think Rudia's character would be dry.

“How dare you hide your face in here. Hurry up... face... ”

Crohan, who was in great pain, suddenly blurs his words. And he seemed to think of something with a suspicious face, and suddenly he shouted in a terrifying voice.

“Yi, this is confusing! ”

It was the confusion I felt when I was fighting Lycaen a while ago.

“Don't tell me you're Lycaen! ”

The man slowly takes off his hood in front of Crohan, screaming in surprise.

“That's not true. ”

The man who took off the hood was nothing but Bermurk.

Crohan, who tried so hard to calm his mind, asked with an unsuspecting face.

“You, did you really use Climus in India? ”

“That's right.”

“I'm sure it's gone. ”

When Crohan asks, Vermouth speaks slowly, very slowly.

“Your father killed my grandfather and got rid of him. No, you thought you got rid of it. ”

“Well, what did you say... …. ”

I heard it correctly, but it's so ridiculous that I can't feel the reality at all. But the body was responding very quickly.

Kuaang!

The room was flooded with red light with noise.

But Bermurk was already preparing.

Incompetence!

Something blows in the wind, and Crohan's red aura fades away like smoke. A black beam wrapped around Crohan's body like a rope.

“Shhh!”

A groan comes from Crohan's mouth.

I felt like my mind was overwhelmed by the black rays that squeezed my whole body in bundles.

“Thank you for keeping Circus safe while I'm gone. ”

Vermouth smiles contemptuously.

Then you nod slowly towards Lydia next to you.

“Well done, Rudia. ”

“Haha, you're welcome. Congratulations on becoming the ruler of Circus. No, soon you will be the ruler of the continent! ”

In the agony of escalating pain, Crohan hears the conversation between the two of you shouting in an evil voice.

“Lydia, you traitor! ”

But Rudia no longer cares about Crohan. You make a red flame at your fingertips and flick it toward Crohan.

Glug-ug-ug!

A slow flame ignites Crohan's entire body.

“Shhhhh!”

A terrible scream erupts from Crohan's mouth.

A grim smile spreads over Rudia's face as she looks at it.

“Hoho, I thought I heard that burning alive is the most painful death... …. ”

“Hiic, hiic! ”

Crohan, who forcefully swallowed up the scream, catches Vermouth by the fire and stares at him with his fierce eyes.

“Heheheh heh, do you think Circus will take possession of you just for killing me? ”

“Take your time and enjoy the pain, it's none of your concern. ”

Bermurk ignores Crohan's words as if they weren't worth it.

But I still feel like I have something to say to Rudia.

“Don't worry about it. Those who don't think they'll follow Bermurk have fought in the last battle. ”

“Huff, puff! ”

Then the elites of Circus met their deaths in vain.

But now it looks like they didn't bring the elites with them, but only those devoted to Crohan. Somehow, I thought it was so pointless that there was a reason.

“Hehe, hehehehe! ”

Crohan laughs as his whole body melts.

Truly remarkable mental strength. But it didn't last long.

“Rrrrgh! ”

Soon, the Terminator's screams echoed through the room.

In addition to Crohan, who was dying in the fire alive, there was only one person left to do business in the room, Aaron.
