When they joined the regular army, Gerus, the leader of the Black Wolf Cavalry, and his deputy, Raise, assigned positions to their men and visited the general, the contractor.

As the knights and soldiers intersect, they advance deeper.

The two men knelt before the grand general, who had begged for guidance from the main squad's entourage.

"General Levi 'al. The Black Wolf Cavalry has just arrived."

The general waved his hand to stop the greeting.

"Fine, fine. There's no need for futile manners on the battlefield."

When they stood up, the wartime general Levi 'al showed a grin.

"I've been waiting for you, Black Wolf. Mavirio and Balwig are roaring the land of True Rule."

"I'm sorry."

Jerus lowers his head.

"We, the Black Wolf Cavalry, will do our utmost for General Levial."

Hmm, I'm counting on you.

Levial nods.

Almost there, but I'll check the situation.

That's what Levial said, inviting the two of them to show the map spread out on the desk.

This is where the enemy's regular army is.

Levial takes a white stone from a side desk and places it on the map.

"There are some enemy mercenary regiments joining us."

With that in mind, I put three small white stones next to each other.

"Which mercenary regiment is the enemy?"

When Jerus asked, Levial lifted the stone in the middle.

"One is the Moon Mercenaries."

Oh.

Jerus raised his voice and looked back at Raise.

"It's been a long time since I heard that name."

Ah.

Raise answers briefly.

The other is the Orvia Mercenaries.

Levial lifts the stone on the right.

Hmm.

Jerus nods.

It's a tough place.

The rest is a collection of small mercenaries.

That's how Levial showed the last stone to Jerus.

I see.

Jerus sees Levial.

So, all of it?

Until the other day.

Levial looked sharp.

"But this has joined the enemy."

That's how Levial lays down a huge stone.

It's a lot bigger.

Jerus says it's bigger than regular army stones.

"I think it's too small."

Levial saw Jerus.

Anyway, it's the Snakebone Mercenaries.

"The King of the Snakes is the commander."

Jerus said.

"Now the most famous mercenary group."

Sounds like it.

Levial nods.

"Nevertheless, I can't just round my tail just by asking my name."

"Of course."

Jerus reached out to the side desk and grabbed a big black stone and put it on the map.

Leave it to the Black Wolf Cavalry.

Reliable.

Levial loosened his mouth.

"You and the Thunder Mercenaries are the only mercenaries on our side. All the small mercenaries I hired for the guerrillas are gone."

That's what he said, laughing at himself with mockery.

"As soon as I heard the rumors of the Snakebone Mercenaries, they all ate bubbles and left."

"I can't help it."

Jerus nods in hawk.

"Mercenaries are a species of life."

"You must be mercenaries."

"We are mercenaries, too. But our black wolf won't stop fighting until he bites his opponent's throat."

That's what Jerus said and smiled confidently.

"You're a lot bigger."

After leaving Levial's main team, Raise called out to Jerus with a bitter smile.

We're dealing with the Snakebone Mercenaries.

Hmm.

Jerus laughs.

"Even if the general scares you before you fight, you can't escape. I've never been too strong."

"Well, I'm not complaining about what you do. Nevertheless."

When Raise was about to say it.

Hey, black dog.

Both of you look back into a pleasant voice.

"Did you come to shake your tail and feed your husband?"

A tall man in dull armor stood with an ironic smile on his mouth.

"Oh, look who it is."

Jerus twisted his face and laughed.

Lord Commander of the Thunder Mercenary Corps, the fastest escape ship in the North.

Ha.

The tall man laughs.

"You call me a jerk. If you're not on my side, I'm gonna kill you."

That's my line.

Jerus put his hand on his hips and turned to the man.

"Khan, isn't it true that Ruffrey is after the Spear King?"

Ah.

Captain of the Thunder Mercenary Corps, Khan of Thunderbolt nods.

"Our Ruffley hunts snakes."

Hmm.

Jerus smiled with his nose.

"Is it that easy to go?"

"Easy or not, do it."

Khan said to look down at Jerus.

"The opponent's strength is not very different from ours. I don't care. It's an opportunity."

"I don't know where the snake is coming from."

Jerus looked up at Khan as if he were licking him from below.

"If you come this way, we'll hunt."

That's it, show Raise standing behind you with his chin.

"My Raise."

"When I get to you, I'll have Ruffrey lead you there."

Khan said.

"Orbie of the moon, but I'll fight as many people as I can without ruffles."

"If there's a snake on your side, we'll send Raise there too."

Jerus also replied.

"This is another opportunity for me."

You want to compete?

Khan opens his eyes.

"We're going fast."

The fastest battlefield in the north.

One of the greatest strengths of the Thunder Mercenary Corps is its ambush tactics, which use its manoeuvres to rush through long distances at once.

"I wonder if you'll be able to live up to the speed you're good at in front of each other."

Jerus said.

Let's try it.

"Jerus"

Khan shook his head with his tongue.

"Okay. This is good, isn't it? Please."

Say that and worship with both hands.

"If you're sending Raise over here, let me cover Luffrey. I'm not just saying thank you."

Khan said frankly.

"Break it, Jerus. Hinnius the Spear King was attacked. I don't think your specialty is spears."

With that serious sound, Jerus also changed his expression.

Don't say that from the beginning.

That's how I look up at Khan.

"I'll stick it high."

Ah.

Khan nods.

"If you defeat the Snakebone Mercenaries, you can name yourself the Wolf King.” I'm not going to call myself King of Thunder. "

Don't decide for yourself.

Jerus frowned.

"The first spear goes to Ruffley. But that's all I can give you. No matter what happens, there's no resentment. Learn the battlefield."

I don't have to tell you.

Khan answered.

"You think I've been running around the battlefield for years?"

When I said that, I just slipped through the two sides saying that I had just finished talking.

Thank you, black dog.

After leaving Khan's back to walk away, Jerus spat and shook his head small.

"Yeah, I told Khan, but honestly, I don't care."

Jerus had a frowning face.

"I'm not afraid of killing snakes, but the stars aren't moving well. Sometimes things don't usually happen."

"Your fortune-telling works well."

When Raise told him to make fun of him, Gerus frowned.

"It's not fortune-telling. I told you it was just an old conjecture."

That's right.

Raise started walking first, saying so.

"But the stars are stars. We are us."

Say that with a carefree voice.

"There were good times and bad times. Still, we survived. That's right."

Sort of.

Jerus nodded and shouted on Raise's back.

"We and Thunderbolt. Whichever snake comes out, you can hit it."

Raise looks over her shoulder at the words.

"Khan's bastard asked for it. I can't help it, I'll give Ruffrey his first chance. But I'll leave it up to you."

"Okay."

"I have expectations that you can do it."

Jerus said.

"But if the snake is more than I imagined,"

The voice fell down.

"Don't go too far. Change the day."

It's not the usual joke tone.

Gerus looked serious.

If you can change it.

Raise answered.

Gerus looks upset.

However, I don't know if I can hear it, even though it's just the commander's words.

I don't know until then.

It was Raise's theory.

Live or die.

When I face that moment, I'm alone after all.

No matter how brave you say it, no matter how clever you say it, how you behave when the moment comes.

I wouldn't know if it weren't for that.

So...

Raise looked forward again.

"I'll decide then. Do it yourself."
