Two hundred and ten adventurers gathered in the attack of the Dead Capital Necropolis.

Usually from an adventurer who acts in as many as twenty, it can be considered an unprecedented scale offensive operation.

However, the path of most ruins is narrow, and if many adventurers are brought together, it doesn't mean that it will be all in their favor.

Members of the Knights of Creon Salvation make up half of the gathered adventurers.

Among them are some of the thirteenth executives of the former Knights of St. Sophia, such as the Holy Knight Creon, Astronomer Flora, Guardian Warrior Garrels, and Sage Arte.

Adventurer parties joining the Knights of Salvation, such as the Old Basileus Adventurers and the Old Pyramid Knights, also have unbeatable strength in the face of the Knights of St. Sophia.

Of the rest, dozens are adventurers that the government has rallied with all sorts of hands. There are also military personnel.

And the last thirty are on my side.

Standing at the entrance to the Dead Capital Necropolis, I looked over at them.

The ancient palace of the White Wall sits in front of us, gathered in the ruins of the garden where it was a palace facility.

"I'm glad you got the best of us."

"Thanks to Lascaros and Lylene Remilia."

To what Notaras said, I answered smugly.

Without the cooperation of these two, we would not have gathered this number of allies.

The Lascaros are still dressed in the white uniform of the former Knights of St. Sophia.

Meanwhile, the adventurers in the Viscount family at Lylene Remilia's parents' home were all dressed and weapons scattered.

The only thing we had in common was that they had strong thoughts on the Lord's daughter, Lylene Remilia.

The leading woman advances.

The figure, dressed in a black robe and with a heavy cane in his hand, was a typical black magician.

"You are Lord Solon, aren't you?

"Exactly."

"How can I thank you for saving my daughter's crisis... Anyway, thank you"

The woman named Nasha stared at me with blue eyes.

Beautiful eyes.

And I also found out that he was a wizard of considerable strength.

With Notaras, Lascaros, Nasha, and us, Creon won't be able to reach Philia that easily either.

The Creons are closing in on me.

I thought he looked sinister, surprisingly in a good mood.

"I didn't expect you to attract so many adventurers. I have to thank Solon."

Next to Cleon was Arte the Wise, looking at me abominably.

How unpleasant, Arte's black eyes were a few times sharper than usual.

"The operation will be a success without the Solon seniors."

"Nevertheless, I've never done so with many allies."

Don't Cleon realize my intention to protect Philia?

Or do you have any other thoughts?

I tell Cleon.

"The Creons said the Necropolis offensive success was definite. I want you to promise me another thing. I want you to try not to hurt anyone, but to find a way to get back to earth without anyone dying."

"You can't do that."

Cleon said lightly.

"Of course, we're not going to make wasted casualties. Be as safe as you can. But it will be inevitable that there will be casualties in this battle"

"You shouldn't have an adventure you know there will be sacrifices."

"I don't think so. For the sake of this country, for the sake of humanity, there are times when sacrifices should be made."

"Can Cleon say the same thing before Shea?

Cleon shuddered all the time and suddenly seemed to lose his word.

After all, Shea is still a very important companion to Cleon.

Even if he died a long time ago.

Instead of Cleon, Arte answers.

"Was Shea the one I was before I joined the Knights? I became one of Seniors Cleon's men, but he was killed by the Miscellaneous Fish Demons in the ruins, and he died quickly."

"Arte, Shea was one of us. I want you to think of a way to put it."

When I stood up, Arte looked upset.

"What's wrong with saying you didn't have enough about someone who wasn't strong enough? If you weren't strong enough, it was Shea himself who died miserably, wasn't it?

"Arte......"

"I'm relieved to think that someone like that could still be alive and have been a Knights executive like Senior Solon. It's only natural that Shea died."

Exactly. I thought I'd rave my voice and protest Arte, too, but when I saw how Cleon next door was doing, I stopped.

Because Cleon watched Arte with hateful eyes.

I felt a cold sweat running on my back.

Cleon's eyes still had intense colors of anger that could have killed Arte.

Speaking of Arte, he seemed completely unaware of it and smiled flatly at me.

"Sacrifice is a sacrifice for all things. So there will also be victims in this Necropolis offensive. Still, for the sake of the Empire and for the sake of greater power, you should be forgiven no matter how much sacrifice you make."
