19/156

The woman with the lock-hair breathes and looks forward.

The mercenaries are staring at themselves with a big smile.

I think my eyes will blink in desperate situations.

The body was complaining of resting to the limit, but then it's all over.

─ Sonya Aquarid is proud of her own swordsmanship.

Since she was a child, she has had an extraordinary sense of swordsmanship, and she also showed off her unique talents in the Aquarid family, which only emitted excellent knights.

If she had been born a man, she would certainly have inherited the family.

At the age of 13, she expressed her aura with a sword. At the age of 15, she won a fair duel with members of the Royal Knights, and at the age of 18, she was also named "Heavy Rain" by the King.

It was one of the best honors to be named for the Knight of the Luanoble Kingdom. At the age of less than twenty, it was worth counting the achievements in history.

Sonya thought she couldn't find an enemy in her age, and that was true.

During my life as a swordsman, I heard chatter from the Cast Cao Empire. The opponent is said to be a deficit of one of the Empire's Triple Nobles, the Jun Family.

For generations, Luanoble and Castcau maintained strong blood ties. How many times have senior nobles worked together to establish a relationship?

However, Sonya did not like the family I gave her.

‘The wizards are all weak. ’

At least all the wizards she met did. Honestly, Sonya was also secretly ignoring the wizard. It's been a long time since they were enlightened.

In fact, 4,000 years ago, it's been a decade since the age of light.

Castcau, who had a reputation as a Maoist empire in the past, is now empowered to train knights.

It's the age of knights now. She fought a few battles with Battle Maji in the Horse Tower, and won without difficulty. And I was convinced that my thoughts were not wrong.

I rather wanted to meet people called Madomun. They were experts in melee warfare who enhanced their physical abilities with Manaro, not with Ora. At least a few times more fun than fighting wizards.

Sonya didn't want to marry a man weaker than herself, but she couldn't go against her father's will.

Eventually, I went directly to the family I gave to see my face.

Warpstone.

At the beginning, I tried to use it. However, Sonya was opposed to the use of Gigi. She experienced warp once as a child, and she had headaches and vomiting for a week because her stomach was turned upside down.

Other than that, the only way to get to the Empire was by boat and over the Ispanian Mountains.

However, the weather at sea was not good, so it was too late to wait for the delivery.

I had no choice but to cross the mountains. Even the monsters in the Ispania Mountains were not a major threat to the Aquarid Knights.

Of course, there are more than a hundred mountains where you have to avoid dangerous places.

The escort consisted of ten articles and five users. Sonya thought their existence was formidable, but she accepted it without being introverted.

I thought it would be a boring trip.

However, her expectations were missed. That's in a bad direction too.

“Indeed, the prayer of the Kingdom of Luanov was not an illusion. ”

A man with a knife mark on his face said,

Despite dozens of corpses, including her group, the man's face was still overflowing.

I had to.

There are twenty men left, even if you hold them down.

On the other hand, only four survived, including Sonya. At least two were users, one more than a decade since he retired.

‘I was carefree. ’

I wouldn't have won, even if I wasn't careless. There were too many in the first place. This did not mean that he was misguided.

The biggest reason, however, was their ironwork.

‘Just before I left the mountain range, I was aiming for when we were most wary. ’

When Charlna's ambush came to her senses, three knights were already dead.

“What are your objectives? ”

Sonya said deliberately.

A man with a knife print, Carlst smiles, revealing this.

“Is that even a question? Of course it's your neck. ”

He looked at Sonya's silent body and said,

“Oh, of course, I'm not just going to kill you. It's a dream to carry a noble woman. If you are the spirit of the Aquarid family, there is no shortage against the first of your dreams. ”

Sonya learns that the opponent deliberately speaks vulgar words to disperse even a little of his reason. However, the body did not follow him, even though he knew it with his head.

Her face was reddened by humiliation.

“I will kill myself for being your trinket. ”

“Oh, you should see that. Then we'll have to be ashamed of the old man and the bitches. ”

“If it's torture, I'm confident. In less than 10 minutes, they'll be crying for me to kill them. ”

The old man with the crooked back smiled grossly, and Sonia was forced to tear his lips.

‘So you haven't killed them yet. ’

It is clear that their purpose is Sonya. Moreover, it would not have been possible to kill anyone but Sonya if he had that skill.

I thought I was playing with it, not just to stop Sonya from committing suicide.

“Don't worry. Sonya, we're not going to be a burden. ”

For the retired knight and Sonya, Luther, another father-like creature, said and laughed. It was a smile that had already taken care of everything.

Sonya's eyes flutter. She closed her eyes. And as he slowly rose, he looked at the two maids and said,

“You have lost your lives to my house. I'm sorry."

“It's okay.”

“This is what I've been waiting for since I became a maid of the Aquarid family. ”

One of the maids smiled.

“Can you put an end to it with the lady's hand? I don't want to be a toy for those firecrackers. ”

“· · · · · Yes. ”

Sonya lowers her head to penetrate. The maid's jaw was trembling finely. I'm talking vaguely, but I couldn't be afraid of dying.

Carlst is full of tongues.

‘You are a prestigious nobleman. The maid has a sense of solitude. ’

Things can get annoying. He ordered his men.

“Stop them. ”

The mercenaries rushed to Sonya quickly, but Sonya's sword was much faster than their movements.

Phew.

And you are.

There was also a faster presence than her sword.

“Ah?”

Sonya stares down at her hand, ignorant. The sword was gone in her hand.

‘Someone took my sword. ’

But only after a while did he realize that. As a knight, it is an unmistakable humiliation, but Sonya is sober enough not to do so.

She wakes up and shakes her head.

‘I don't know if there was this much skill. ’

Don't you think you can stop the suicide if you just eat it?

Despair passed through Sonya's face.

It was the moment that I tried to bite my tongue so that I would not eat any more food for the family.

I realized the mercenaries were looking behind me with their eyes.

What is it?

Sonya looks back. And I was surprised. Because someone was standing behind her.

He was a crooked man. He had a beard with a fluffy head, and a soup on his face that didn't wash. At least the armor was intact, but the whole thing was so messy that it didn't even catch my eye.

Sonya had never seen such a ugly man. Nevertheless, he could not open his mouth.

A sword in a man's right hand.

That was the sword Sonya had just grabbed.

The same was true of the panicked mercenaries. One day they appeared and looked at the man who was receiving the gaze of the left.

A man who was also the leader of the mercenaries, Carlst rolled his eyes once again.

‘Twisted impression, squeezed beard, and that gray hair. ’

Carlst mutters quietly.

“Yes. You were the Ghost. ”

After Deputy Commander Joe was exterminated, the squad members disappeared steadily. After all, ten more were beaten by him. Among them,

There were also people who played a key role in the mission. Even if they were fine, the number of people killed in this raid would be halved.

A man called Ghost, Frey ignored Carlst's words. He gave Sonya his gaze and gave her back her sword.

“Argh.”

Sonya hastily catches the sword. Normally, I would have grabbed it lightly, but that was proof that I couldn't beat Chus right now.

Then I looked at Carlst and stood up dry.

“You're the commander. ”

It took me a long time to find the Warna Mountains. In the first place, Frey had no talent for pursuit or exploration.

I couldn't even wash properly and went around the mountain range.

Carlst looks back at Frey. Severe light touched his eyes.

Isn't that where their base camp was?

I stayed for a month, so I had a lot to keep. If you're too lazy to be vigilant, you'll be robbed by monsters right away.

I invested about ten people to protect it.

“What happened to the members? ”

“It's like you're thinking. ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Carlst's expression hardened. And soon I realized.

This man has no intention of saving himself. The diagnosis of the load was accurate that the hand was cruel.

‘You can't give me a chance to cast a spell. ’

Carlst touched quickly.

“Aim for the Wizard! Don't approach the front, use the trees! ”

The mercenaries have moved swiftly.

‘Battle Maj's combat strength is typically five Class B mercenaries. I can beat you with enough power right now. ’

“Argh!”

At the same time as Carlst's thoughts are over, one mercenary scatters blood.

Carlst blinks.

What? What just happened? ’

It was the moment when he saw the sight of it. Carlst felt something fly to him.

My body reacted before my head. He hurriedly pulls up the swords and throws them out.

Ka 'ang!

This is magic. It's also magic with firepower so strong that Carlst's wrist is frowning!

I think I'm going to let go of the knife right now, but he's holding on to it.

He is a Class A mercenary. Skills are clear and experienced. I've also fought Battle Maji a few times.

Because of this, he is well aware that there are certain cycles in the wizards' magic.

‘We won't keep attacking. ’

The moment his attack stops must come.

No, it doesn't matter if you don't come. He still has ten colleagues. It is clear that he will cut off the wizard's neck while he turns off his time like this.

· · · · · should be.

Something strange.

Ka 'ang Ka 'ang

Karst's body sweated cold. The legs are flustered and the wrists are as swollen as broken.

Nevertheless, I did not let go of the sword. The moment you let this go, you die.

‘Why isn't the magic over?'

It's like dozens of wizards are alternately shooting magic.

You've been holding on for so long, what are the others doing!

Carlst looks around while his life is at stake.

And he suffered from a dark sense of collapse.

‘Me, crazy! ’

It was not enough to wield the sword desperately.

The mercenaries were all out of their minds to cast out their magic!

Who the hell is that guy? ’

Are you capable of casting this kind of magic at the same time and controlling it? Even the deputy commander of the Horse Tower I saw once was not that good!

It's that moment.

Peck

His magic stopped.

“Huffy! Huffy! ”

“Ugh. ”

The mercenaries steal cold sweat with their hands down. Carlst sobs up and shouts in haste as he tries to lower his hand.

“No, his manna is gone! We have to kill him now! ”

If you miss this time, there will be no multiplication. Carlst once again did not have the confidence to be baptized with that magic.

At Carlst's words, the poison was in the eyes of the mercenaries, who seemed to be willing to sit down right now.

“Die!”

“You son of a bitch! ”

The mercenaries ran at the same time.

Sonya, who had been watching the situation until now, hurriedly pulled out her sword and tried to confront them.

I don't know the identity of this monster, but at least I know it's not the enemy.

Then Frey raised one hand and stopped Sonya.

“Back off. It's over. ”

“Shut up, you're done? What? · · · · · ·. ”

Aqua

And at that moment the earth turned upside down. The mercenaries gasp and breathe.

“Er, Earth Quake! 5-Star magic! ”

“I mean, shit! Get out of here!”

The mercenaries fought to escape the magic aftermath, but the range was too wide. Neither did they have any experience with wizards.

I would have been able to get away with it if I had been in a state of total chaos.

But now it's different. Strongly met his limits. Those who stood alone could not escape the fierce wrath of the earth.

“Argh!”

“Uh-huh. ”

The mercenaries were buried in the ground at shovel. I desperately abandoned my hand, but the sooner I did, the sooner I was sucked into the basement.

‘Oh, my God! The magic you've been using so far has simply been time-dragging? ’

Carlst was alarmed even in the pain of his whole body being dented in the rock. The man was holding himself back with magic, memorizing another magic!

I knew he was a wizard capable of double casting.

However, Carlst had never seen such a disturbing double casting before in his life.

The whole mercenary army was played by the simple restraint magic used earlier.

Besides, what is the power of this Earth Quake? They are not simply turning the earth upside down, they are constantly pulling themselves underground as if they were alive.

‘Oh, no. So futile. ’

Carlst was ruthless, but he couldn't escape.

Kuuu

The dirt sank quietly, and there was no one else there.

“Don't, for God's sake. ”

Sonya stares at the man who made this sight zinc.

At the same time, I realized that the mercenaries had been wiped out in a blink of an eye.
