Bilba, a fortified city between the capital and the Brunkels country.
Because of its important role in protecting the capital, it was built in a sturdy way compared to other cities.
The walls that cover the perimeter bounce back even a half-breed demonic attack, even without boundaries. Once, in the war against Brunkels, the city became an important hub. Despite repeated battles, this fortified city was never destroyed until the end.
The knights who work in such a fortified city are also made up of those who excel, those who are expected to have a future.
So to speak, it's a gathering of the knight's elite. Well, some rarely smoke sweet honey with their parents' cones, but that was really extremely slight.
Within such a fortified city, a bell rang to tell of the emergency. That bell was used years ago. It was since I confirmed that the Evil Dragon was approaching this continent.
Since then, the sound of the bell had caused great anxiety to the people living in the fortified city.
The knights skip instructions like anger.
"What's the situation with the Holy Dragon!?"
"We're headed straight this way!"
"Well... I heard that the Holy Dragon who ran wild in Pockin 'Village was crusaded, but you mean that was just a holla story"
Barbi laughed at herself all the time before seeing where the Holy Dragon was.
Saint Dragon was flying straight for the fortified city. That's pretty fast, too.
At a stage still far away, the knights were made ready to fight because those who had farsighted skills realized it.
Assign a knight over the walls. He also prepares magic to stop the invasion of the Holy Dragon by his magic unit.
Dealing with holy dragons and other flying demons in the air was a stone to drop to the ground and strike down from there at once.
In other words, how much can be packed in the first attack. Especially if you are as monstrous as the Holy Dragon, you will decide where the battle goes at the beginning.
In fact, this fortified city once defeated Death Wyburn, once said to be the ruler of the sky under the command of the Demon King.
It's been twenty years. It did a lot of damage to Death Wyburn, who was freed from the seal, and pushed him one step further.
At the time, Xerocco, who was commander-in-chief, was enough for anyone who aspired to be a knight to give him a good name.
Therefore, the way to deal with the mighty demons flying in the sky could already be done as documents.
Barbi, who was a disciple of Xerocco, tapped the teachings into his men as well and was only carrying them out.
I noticed the Holy Dragon and it didn't take me long enough to deploy the knights, for one thing, thanks to my usual training. When things happen, they risk their lives to buy time in this fortified city.
Already, information about the Holy Dragon has been passed on to the King's capital.
Barbi, captain of the fortified city of Bilba, who had been entrusted with the overall command of the troops, was watching the situation with the knights at the East Gate, where the Holy Dragon was headed.
"Captain... can we survive?"
"I don't know. But we have a family. And we have company - fight to protect it!"
As Barbi screams, so do the knights.
Some pay for fear.
Some remain tall.
Some of them match the knoll on the spot.
"Up to the effective range of the magic attack on the Holy Dragon, there are 10 seconds left!"
Sounds louder by demonic stones.
At the same time as the count begins, the knights who were on the walls of the castle begin their magical preparations simultaneously.
I saw a holy dragon looming at the end of the gate.
"Magic Fire!"
Let's go! Recommended! "
Along with that voice, Barbi gives it an ambition. The knights run out and head outside the gate.
But when they went out the gate, people stopped.
"Hey, why the magic!"
Barbi screams unexpectedly.
The Holy Dragon, just as if he had known magic, had stopped too long to escape the effective range of magic.
Thus, the Holy Dragon breathed thoughtfully into his chest with his wings shaken with judgment.
I don't hit magic. And everyone was moving on the assumption that magic would hit them. All those who were on the walls also give signals, assuming that the Holy Dragon penetrates them. Otherwise we won't make it. No one will be able to blame him.
The battlefield gets stiff. The impatience of losing one's place of destination gives calm to people by the constant silence.
Thus, the knights tremble with reluctance at the overly powerful of the confronted Holy Dragon.
If the Holy Dragon sifts his legs, arms, and tails on this occasion, that alone will erase the skin of another knight.
"Sa, back off!"
Barbi screams in haste, but the Holy Dragon was first to release the braces.
A strong wind breaks through. But I stayed just gently stroking people's bodies.
Impressive knights looked up to the Holy Dragon. It was as if the braces of the Holy Dragon had blown people's fears.
Barbi was puzzled by the situation. Continuously, the forces gathered from the fortified cities gathered to the gates, and they were all consolidated.
and one old man descended from the back of the Holy Dragon. As he descended to the ground with a mild movement, Saint Dragon also descended to the ground as it was Barbi relaxed at home on holiday.
It was an excellent opportunity, but the idea of attacking, etc. did not come to anyone, except the silence dominated the place.
Who the hell is this? There was nothing human like following the Holy Dragon that I had in mind, and many watched the old man still.
One, another and raise their voices as they have noticed.
The old man who walked to Barbi's sight - Xerocco gave Barbi a thank you.
"I apologize for making such a surprising imitation. I thought this would be the quickest way for people here to get their troops ready."
When Xerocco laughed as he teased, the knights, including Barbi, collapsed from their hips nagging.
"Oh my God, Mr. Xerocco...... eh. What is it? Suddenly..."
"It's an emergency. Gather your troops and prepare to march to the city of Coulas."
"Duh, what do you mean?"
Xerocco rose the astonished Barbi and then explained what was happening in Coulas.
"... I see - demons surround the city of Coulas,"
"Yeah. So, this is how we had to force them to gather soldiers. Later, you might be pissed off by the Knights."
Xerocco didn't look particularly concerned either.
But. Barbi shakes his head there.
"Mr. Xerocco. Even if you hurry now to get ready, your arrival at Coolas will be around 7: 00 tomorrow morning. … there should have been a junction device there, but if we had already been using it for nearly a whole day, perhaps when we arrived -"
"Right. As it stands, it will be difficult."
"... then wouldn't it be right for the Knights to give up and intercept in full condition"
"I would have, too, had there been no exceptions"
"… Exception, is it"
"One, I'm a young man. With his straight eyes, he's starting to act to help Kurus.... He's trying to work with about 5,000 demons, just to help four important people. Besides, I wanted to work with you. I have feelings for myself that I don't want to abandon Coulas."
The knights surrounded by Xerocco's words are astonished.
I could not hide my surprise and confusion at the fact that there are young men who once made Xerocco, the hero who is also said to have saved this country, say so much.
That was the same for Barbi. Shake your neck vertically as you wipe the sweat that passes on your cheeks.
"... that's a fine young man. But ideals alone are difficult. What the hell can that young man do?"
I didn't mean to be stupid. I just wanted to hear it from Zerocco.
What kind of person does Xeroco value that much?
"This Holy Dragon is one of those young men. Did you hear about the Holy Dragon's rampage in Pockin 'Village?"
"Yeah. Anything was crusaded or something."
"It was the young man I wanted to work with, Rude, who crusaded the runaway Sacred Dragon"
"... No way"
Barbi turned his gaze toward the Holy Dragon. Barbi had the skill of being a demon. By skill, Barbi was powerful enough to hear voices, depending on the demons.
"... I see. Apparently, it's all true."
Barbi was surprised. From the questions I asked myself, more facts popped up than I could have imagined.
"It's terrible to suspect"
Shikshik and Xeroko do their hand in the eye. It was an understandable act, but the knights, who saw Xerocco for the first time, were just amazed by his freedom.
I thought he was a stricter person. That would be the feeling held by almost every knight on this occasion. The fact is, the current Knights Commander is because that's already a tough guy.
"If so many people are with us and you're willing to cooperate - it would be too wasteful to throw away the coulas"
"Yes, I'm going to go around the city close to Coulas and gather collaborators. Seinlia, please."
Seinlia rings "Bitter!" and takes on Xerocco.
"For more information, please carry it with you through a fellow Mr. Rude named Hugh."
"... hey, what's this?"
"It's a slime split. He's one of Mr. Rudd's people."
Xerocco returns to the sky with Seinlia.
Barbi, who was looking at that back, immediately skips the instructions.
"Rude, huh? I want to see what kind of man he is."
The other knights react to Barbi's crush.
That's what they say. They had a look full of innocence, like when a child yearns for heroes and braves.
Xerocco's activities progressed without problems, beyond his success in dictating the fortified city. If the fortified city is to cooperate - troops will soon be formed in cities everywhere.
And Xerocco was also talking about the hope of Rude when he asked for help. In a pushed situation, we need something to be such a symbol.
As long as there is that symbol, a person's heart cannot be broken.
Once - remembering when he took command in the fortified city - Xerocco runs through the sky with Seinlia.
