Raydor Holy Sword War Journal

203. Swinging King's Capital

A massive earthquake on an unprecedented scale.

A massive influx of undead from neighbouring countries.

Zayn's kingdom fought back the two woes that arose from the resurrection of the Ruinous Witch at the cost of sacrifice. However, the disaster was not over yet.

While Raydor was away to defeat the Undead, a disturbance was about to break out in the Royal Capital.

"Is the Count of Revere a rebel..."

Boy prime minister entrusted with the royal residence - Sven Arbeil sighs at reports from his men.

Sven is in the office of the Prime Minister in the capital of King Zayn. It used to be the room where Rockwood Marcel, the former prime minister, wielded his arms.

After hearing the report from the knight who ran into the room, Sven suppressed his forehead to withstand the headache.

Apparently, some of the nobles who had set up their territory north of the capital revolted.

The king's lap capital was originally more guarded than anywhere else in the country. The Knights, the shield of the King's sword, are stationed there, so that they can deal with emergencies quickly.

However, the current capital of the kingdom was ever so weak, and there were only about two hundred cavalrymen besides the guards that protected the security of the capital.

As a result, the knights and soldiers guarding the Royal Palace are dispersed throughout the country due to the reconstruction support caused by the earthquake caused by the "Earth" witch Ottoman.

A further series of Undead raids from the Kingdom of Aterna. Raydor, who was a substantial monarch, and Darren Garst, Justy O'Gist, who was a close relative and the main force, also filled the royal capital.

It would be a good time for some of the nobles who were dissatisfied with Raydor's reign to rise.

Currently, Sven has less than a thousand soldiers at his discretion.

In contrast, the count of Reuille, who led the rebellion, and the soldiers of the nobility, who were called up in tandem, totalled about 2,000. In addition, the people who were devoured by the disaster are being recruited as righteous soldiers, and the number of them is quite unfavorable.

"Somehow... you're stupid. Really."

Upon hearing the report of the rebellion, Sven dropped his shoulders in dismay.

Sometimes humans behave stupidly in the eyes of everyone... but this time it's typical.

Raydor tries to impose a centralized politics that greatly restricts the rights of the nobility. I don't understand the aristocrats rebelling against it... but do you really think this coup will succeed?

Certainly, the timing is not bad. Rather, it is a great opportunity as never before.

But... even if we capture the capital and take out Sven, there is no future for the nobles who have rebelled. If Raydor returns after the battle, he'll just be crushed mercilessly.

Maybe Raydor is expecting to lose the Undead battle... If so, it would be foolish to go around in circles.

By the time Raidol is defeated, the Kingdom of Zayn will have the same future as the Kingdom of Aterna. Neither the nobles nor the common people will be swallowed up by the forces of the undead to join their ranks.

In other words, whether the rebellion succeeds or not, they have no future. When defying the chosen hero of the Holy Sword, the doom is decided.

"Even such a child can't understand the rationale, so I'm shocked. What kind of motivation are they fighting with?”

Perhaps they underestimate Raydor, the holder of the Holy Sword.

Even if I was chosen as the Holy Sword, I was a human being. If they feel like it, they can crush it. Perhaps he rebelled from such a sweet idea.

If I'd seen Raydor fight with his sword, I wouldn't have thought of defying him.

(The end of their journey is the main road to ruin. That said... I can't bother your Highness, and I can't be killed either)

"That's why... can I ask you for a favor, Angelica?"

"Of course, Sven."

When Sven asked me to go to the back (...), I heard the words of approval echoing when I hit him.

Sven's request was pleasantly accepted by a strangely old woman who was holding Sven's body like a stuffed animal.

Angelica Ilkas, the head of the Viscount Ilkas family and a thousand horsemen of the Royal Army.

She is an unexpected woman who calls herself Sven's "sister".

"I can't forgive you for aiming at my lovely Sven's life. You deserve to die! I'll cut off the heads of the unscrupulous and decorate the walls of the King's City!"

Angelica licked her lips with her red tongue as she uttered a reliably horrible word.

Rakshasa's ferocious phase. It was a manifestation of the goddess in charge of the battle.

"...... thank you very much"

Embraced by the arms of a beauty who started a cold, frozen murderous intent, Sven shook his head slowly as if he was sympathetic.
