Reincarnation into the Barrier Master
Episode 723: Opponent's Strength
... Are you insane?
I murmured in my heart. The screws on my head are flying. I'm not talking about decent people.
And it shall come to pass, that there are more than thirty of them that have surrendered. They all have their heads tied and lined up in front of Castle Casa. What kind of thought circuits can lead to such an answer? Did you eat anything strange last night?
”... I knew it was attached to you”
Activate the Appraisal Skill on the Commander-in-Chief just in case. It still had the "Curse LV2" on it.
As you can see from the appraisal, this man's life was a life that kept losing. Ever since I was a child, I have not been the first, and I have always walked second and third. I think that's fine, but it seemed humiliating to him, and he was a man who kept remembering that he wanted to take the top position anyway.
That's why they killed some of their rivals.
I often wonder if you've lived so long without any problems, but I'm sure you've been helped by the good character of your family. By the way, this man's great-grandfather goes to the Emperor of the Sephardic Empire. In other words, he will become a part of the royal family.
Fortunately for his bloodline, he was able to hold the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Expeditionary Force. Well, fortunately for him, the Empire has nothing but misfortune.
Above all, the soldiers who follow him are the most pathetic. Perhaps the cadres should be in his mood, but it is the soldiers who will be forced to face the challenge. A crazy man's crazy orders will cost him a life he doesn't need to lose.
"Draw those who surrendered here." Take your head and transport it to Castle Casa! ”
Please wait.
It was Therma who opened her mouth. He knelt down before the Commander-in-Chief and began to persuade him with a high-pitched voice.
"Father, please don't do that!"
……
“If we do that, our army will be hated by the Future, the Kingdom of Noon and the Empire of Elsmo. Your father's name will be scarred.”
Shut the fuck up.
"No, I won't shut up. Does my father want to end this battle or expand it further?”
"Of course, to save this useless battle."
"If so, we should not take the lives of our soldiers, but treat them with mercy. or else...."
"Since when have you been in a position to speak to me, Thelma?" You've grown so great. "
……
The Commander-in-Chief snorted, quicking his chin and letting his gaze swim in an ominous direction. I'm telling you, I'm not listening to you anymore.
Did you think that this would not reveal the truth? Therma turned her gaze to me and murmured in a small voice.
"...... if you come from Agarta"
Listening to that voice, the Commander-in-Chief turned his attention to Giroli and me.
"Hey, you, there's nothing else to say about this."
Ohhhhh
My voice leaked out unexpectedly. Do you think I'll listen to that? [M] Based on the flow of talk so far, don't you know that there is no such possibility? I don't know, maybe.
Got it!
Suddenly I was shouted out loud, and my body trembled.
"Well, now that I know..."
What?
The Commander-in-Chief stood up with his eyes lifted, and came to us with his big strands.
"Say it again! There's nothing else to say about today!" Tell them King Agarta had no problems at all! Got it! "
……
"There was no problem..." No, there's a problem everywhere. I was told not to say anything, but I am the king of Agarta. "I may be able to reveal my identity here..." No, that makes it even more confusing.
"If you say so, I'll kill you."
You thought it was a silent resistance not to say anything, he's been intimidating me even more. I freak out as I pass through my anger.
Did you read my heart's voice? He keeps on saying more words.
"I don't care about your life under my orders." If I tell you to kill you now, you will lose your life. It's no use trying to escape. If you can escape from this 10,000-strong army of the Sefand Empire, you must flee. you.... "
Apparently, this man can't talk. I'll trigger the barrier skill.
"Whoa!"
"I... disappeared"
The cadres are upset. The barrier was only given the effect of erasing its appearance and signs, but the people around it were fiercely upset. A high level barrier master could do this, but have they ever dealt with them?
With that in mind, I'm behind the Commander-in-Chief, who urges Sidi and Escalina to go wolf.
……
Once the barrier is lifted, the cadres who noticed us will be dumbfounded. The Commander-in-Chief was wandering around, but suddenly looked back and stopped breathing as he saw us.
"... apparently, you can leave without being found by everyone."
The Commander-in-Chief's eyes were twitching. Apparently, I didn't hear any ghu. As I glance at him like that, I keep on saying more words.
If you don't estimate the opponent's strength accurately, you'll die.
I'm going straight to Therma.
What about the prisoners?
"... over there"
He turns his gaze on me. A curtain was laid there. Remove the Holy Sword from the Infinite Storage, pull it out, point the tip toward the sky, and put it in the sheath. At that moment, the curtain split in two.
Inside, men's soldiers were tied behind their backs. Some were rolled, and some were seated. Did you hear the conversation just now? Everyone's face is pale.
"Let... at least give me some water... let me drink!"
A soldier yells at me. Perhaps you haven't drunk anything since yesterday. In the middle of the night, they march back from defeat. That would make your throat feel extra dry.
I tried to activate Earth Magic with one hand on the ground. At that time, Escalina stepped forward. She sighed tinyly, saying she couldn't help it, and pushed her hands out horizontally in front of her.
A large pond of water is created from her hands, floating in the air. A few small bars of water jumped out of it.
"Oh... oh... water... water..."
The prisoners are coming towards us as they stand up and frolic. Many people come to us as they fall, either because they are tied up behind their backs.
And they that came unto Escalina opened their mouths as if they were dumbfounded, and they began to drink water with their throats clattering. Some of them cough up. What a strange sight.
After a while, the dryness is healed, and they all look up to heaven, breathing on their shoulders. It seemed to be quite delicious water. When Escalina put her hands together, the water floating in the air suddenly disappeared. She looked back in silence and returned to her former place with a pale footsteps.
I don't know how it looks because I'm wearing a hood, but I'm sure it will remain expressionless.
"...... or thank you"
One of the prisoners opens his mouth to moan. I glanced at the man, turned my heels back, and sat down in the chair where the Commander-in-Chief was sitting. Sidi and Escalina stay behind me.
I didn't utter a word to anyone. "As if time had stopped, no one moved..."
