The Branded Female Fencer
Insufficient Talent, Part 26 - Night Assault ⑤ -
"Brother, was that them?
"I don't know. Slash it or poke it. They say we're human separated troops too, but that's not really human. That could be the rumored Hecaton Cale."
"Well, then you need a magician."
"Oh, that sounds like an effective means. Either way, we're not alone. They're crazier than that, boat. I heard they were on our side this time, but they didn't hesitate to point their sword at us either.
Besides, it looks familiar to the leading man. That's a lousy bastard called Gunz. He was supposed to be the leader of another mercenary regiment, but why? "
"Some of them were normal, but hey. Maybe I just put my hands together with Hecaton Cale."
"I don't know that. A mercenary regiment called Hekatonkail is creepy, and I don't know who's the captain of the regiment, or the size. Funny things are happening on the battlefield these days. Northeastern battlefield. Diore's out there, and he didn't get to fight, did he? That's never happened before..."
The men seemed unmistakable with the Dark Monkeys. Apparently, they also lost an earlier battle. Or did you pull into a useless battle? Either way, it would have sucked if it had been Elsia and Gail. He became a feather surrounded by enemies for hiding on the spot what he should have just escaped. They cut Rosetta and me more than just each other. There's no way we can do this now.
Still, I also thought I could handle it if I was desperately lurking my breath, but the idea still seemed sweet. The man next to Kersu whimpered in some whisper. In doing so, Kersu turned his attention to the hidden bushes of Elsia and the others.
"They just noticed!
"Run!"
But the moment they jumped out of the bush, Elsia and the others were surrounded. It is seized without time to resist and assembled on the ground.
Kersu walked slowly towards them.
"That's the face you just saw. You're with Rosetta."
"Ugh! What if it is!
"I'm willing to buy it."
Kersu kicked at Elsia's stomach. Spit out the water Elsia drank earlier.
"Ho ho! Hey."
"It's weird, my little girl. You don't have the strength to call me a kink. Be quiet."
Kersu stepped on Elsia's head, whimpering, and turned to Gail.
"I don't know... it's usually a ransom, but it's just a return. And it's troublesome. He's a kid, and there's no art in just killing him. Hey, you guys. What do you want me to do?
Kersu peered into Gail's face. Gail is not smart, but he instinctively guessed. This man said he was testing himself. He said if he uttered a boring word, he would be murdered in vain on the spot.
Gail only worried for a moment and went on a bet.
"You'd have to be proud to kill just a kid, wouldn't you? Why don't you make a bet?"
"Ha, you heard me, you guys! Kid got me a deal, didn't he? Let me ask you something."
Kersu stirred up his people to show them. I heard a sneak laugh from around me, but Gail was going to be dealing with it calmly himself.
"One hit. If I put your sword in 10, you'll miss us."
"What if you lose?
"In exchange for ransom. We'll be money. You can hang on to the captain so he does."
"Ho. How much is that?
"Right..."
Honestly, Gail doesn't have much sense of money. Because I've hardly ever seen anything but dimes yet. For that Gail, I assumed a lot of money.
"5000 pent. How about this?
"5,000. Hey... you can't do that at all. At least not 50,000."
"Become..."
Gail was stunned. And I realized. Whatever you think, 50,000 is out of the law as a ransom for a boy mercenary who doesn't even have a sense of money himself. I mean, this guy said he wasn't going to give himself back from the start. Gail and the others said Kersu was making fun of them. From the beginning, I realized clearly that this man was not dealing with us.
Gail looked up at Kersu with regret, but Kersu let go of unexpected words to him like that.
"Apparently you can't pay... then we'll do it another time"
"What the fuck?
"I can let you go."
Hope appears on Gail's face in Kersu's words. Kersu looked at the change of expression with a funny laugh. Gail hasn't even noticed that he's already been put on Kersu.
And the words that came out of Kersu's mouth...
"I don't think you guys can beat me on one hit with me. So endure my sword until the moon in Jomtien hides in the shade of a tree. It's longer than 10, but it's not without eyes."
"Oh, my God, if that's the case..."
"Except, it's not a fight, it's a little girl there."
Gail's face turned bright blue on Kersu's suggestion. The slightest hope in my face turns into despair in an instant. Kersu looked even more amused at the transition.
"You're kidding me! If you want to do it, I'll..."
"You have no right to say no. If you refuse, I will kill you on this occasion. Kill me if you lose. Wield your sword if you want to live. Come on, what do we do?
"I'll do it."
Elsia, who had been kicked in the stomach and was stuffy, slowly wakes up. Those eyes were not anger at unreasonable demands, nor fear of powerful enemies, they were just burning with obsession with raw. When Elsia pulled out her sword softly, she slowly set up. Cheers from around.
"Elsia, don't! I can't!"
"You can't do it, you do everything! This is the only way to survive. That's the way we chose it. I'm so ready."
That's what I said. Elsia's hand was shaking. Of course I'm not afraid. Kersu laughs when he sees it.
"Only the mouth tip is for one person. But how are you really prepared?
"Come quickly! Maybe the moon is more of a rush than I thought!?
"Then don't hesitate"
When Kersu's sword was overhead like a whip, he roared and attacked Elsia.
