I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 230
wild people (1)
is a passing incident.
The winter continued and the wall collapsed in an instant. The poison unleashed on the South and the invasion of Eastern pagans. The rise of the Zeruem Church.
As numerous major events unfold one after another, the kingdom is in chaos and the cause of winter is eliminated.
That was what the player had to do, and Park Si-hoo and I, who knew this future in the previous episode, prepared for it.
Dun Skies, who was trying to spread ‘boiling snake venom’ in the southern river, was stopped and Zeruem’s uprising was crushed in advance.
In the original Dongbuya, it was a case that Geomje handled on his own, so he went to protect the northern wall for the last time…
“What kind of wall collapsed after not even holding on for three days?”
The last barrier I tried to prepare for was destroyed faster than expected. It collapsed.
“I understand why I couldn’t hold out.”
The reason was now unfolding before my eyes.
-Waaaaaa…!!
Loud cheers fill the space, and the entire field of vision is filled with people. Those are all people.
“Brother Ko Corin!”
Germain Luther runs towards me in a huff. Germain came to report on the work I had entrusted him with.
“Did you do everything you asked?”
“Ah, yes! The barbarians didn’t use flags, so it was hard to count them… but somehow.”
“Please report.”
“Approximately over 230,000 people! Considering that the elderly and children are included, the warrior class is approximately over 150,000 people!”
“It’s huge.”
North Kingdom.
Simply put, it refers to a federation system of northern barbarian tribes.
Their number reaches a whopping 300, and among them are all kinds of demons, including half-giants, witches, and sorcerers.
Living in a barren land, they inevitably had no choice but to become marauders who invaded their surroundings, and to do this, both men and women had to become masters of war.
That is why the wild beasts of North Kingdom are warriors like any other, even women. They are such a pain in the ass.
“You can win, right?”
Germain looked nervous, as if he only trusted me.
He deserves it too. There has never been an invasion of this magnitude in the history of the kingdom.
“If there were 150,000 barbarian warriors, there would be at least 7800 knight-level warriors… Indeed.”
It’s worth it to be ruined in three days. There will also be Valkyries who were great warriors of the main god there.
“I won. Somehow.”
“Oh…”
But if you fight from the front, you win. I can be sure of this.
First of all, I am there.
If you look at my level now, I’m half the level of Park Si-hoo, who was called the Demon God. If we fight, somehow I will win.
In addition, Mrs. Josephine Clara is a person who would be a nightmare in the environment of war.
Even if you drop just one Meteor in the middle of it, there will be terrible results.
Not only that, but Marie Hwaran Arisha… Cranel Yuel Doron, who obtained the gods’ treasure in Magmel, is worth a hundred per day.
If you fight, you win.
“At least 100,000 people will die. That’s the problem.”
“You mean that barbarian?”
“okay.”
Germain looked like he didn’t know what the problem was. As a believer in the Catholic Church, in his view, the northern barbarians were pagans who deserved to die, and he must have learned that.
In fact, this is natural for the kingdom’s citizens who have suffered throughout the kingdom’s history.
Well, from my perspective, they are all the same, but there is nothing I can do about deep valleys.
From my perspective, there are no such great ‘reinforcements’.
“It’s Luther.”
“yes?”
“From now on, we will make those people on our side.”
“Yes?! What do you mean!”
A guy who doesn’t usually talk loudly to me is startled by what I say. It’s a normal reaction.
“Didn’t I tell you that there would be a number of monsters we’ve never seen before? We need at least one person’s help.”
“But still…”
Germain seemed to be hesitating while muttering something.
“Brother… Will those savage beasts still follow your words?”
I can’t say I want to kill them all, so I take a detour like this.
That’s a very fortunate thing. If Germain had been the same when he first entered the school, he would have gladly let them all die.
“Of course, there’s no need to bend over here. I have a solution in mind.”
Unlike the El Ras Kingdom, the North Kingdom still worships the old gods.
Then the answer was simple.
All you have to do is convince the god they serve.
* * * *
The wild people of the North Kingdom are often disparaged as disorderly, violent, and barbaric, but they were also people who created a truly civilized society.
They called themselves free people and held large and small assemblies called ershing to make decisions for the village tribal union.
However, last year’s winter joint rally caused great division.
“Scade Mer (Shield Maiden)…! It’s time for the tribal gathering!”
A man wearing a white horned helmet visited Brünnhild.
She headed to the assembly tent representing the tens of thousands of wild people, and there were the tribal chiefs of each tribe and their advisors, Skademer… all maidens.
“You’re welcome, big sister.”
A huge woman gently greets her. Thrud is a former maiden who stands out as a ‘strong man’ with a stature and musculature that make her believe she is a half-giant.
Brünnhild glanced at the people in the tent and sighed sadly.
“It looks like some… didn’t come.”
When he set out, a hundred tribes followed Brünnhild. But now the chiefs and shield maidens of the seventy tribes number less than twenty.
Most of those not here should be considered dead. With the warriors of that tribe.
“It can’t be helped. The shield maiden died while fighting valiantly, so they must have gone to Valhalla.”
Brünnhild smiled bitterly at the words spoken by the leader of one tribe.
The tribal leaders of North Kingdom serve their predecessor, Odin.
Brünnhild dreamed of Valhalla, the paradise of warriors who fought and died valiantly, but now that the gods have fallen, even she cannot be sure of Valhalla’s existence.
So I guess that’s why we betrayed… or rather, had a different opinion. Tates Balthazar’s offer to them and their tribes, who were shield maidens who served the gods, was such sweet honey.
However, this was a betrayal of the God they had worshiped for thousands of years.
What we will achieve by joining hands with the last frost giant of this era and resurrecting the world tree requires betraying the gods we admired and followed so much.
Brünnhild, the Valkyries and the tribal leaders present here also protested.
“Scyandmer. We don’t have much time. Balthazar’s evil demons are moving south.”
“…First, we have to contact the Wall. We have to give them an ultimatum.”
“There’s no way those weak Southerners will accept us!”
“That’s right! It would be better for us to take that wall and meet our enemies!”
“Above all, there is no time. The demonic beasts are just around the corner.”
Okay, I don’t have time. Time to persuade the people of El Ras Kingdom of the Wall.
Balthazar had more than half of the tribes of North Kingdom under his command.
Of the 297 allied tribes, 95 did not follow Balthazar’s wishes.
Balthazar began to mercilessly slaughter these 95 tribes. In front of the endless pouring out of shadow demons and the demonic spirits of Mother Nature, the opposing tribes were endlessly pushed out.
Brünnhild and the Valkyries began moving south, leading the surviving opposing tribes. To literally survive.
And a huge wall blocked them, and they had to overcome that wall to avoid the magic beasts moving south.
“Hilde… Have you finished reconnaissance?”
Brünnhild calls the sisters who had been sent for him in advance. Then Hild hesitated and stepped forward.
“Your sister…”
“What about the wall’s defenses?”
“It was more solid and reinforced than the information we looked at before. The number of people also doubled.”
About 2,000 people. Some tribal leaders snorted at those words.
There are 150,000 warriors here. If you put your mind to it, you can push it out in less than half a day.
“But… there are at least four strong people equivalent to the Warchief over there.”
“what?”
Warchief. He spoke of the strongest warrior leading the alliance in North Kingdom, which worships the strong.
By the kingdom’s standards, it was a special class, and usually only one person this strong appears every hundred years.
At least in the North Kingdom of this era, there was not a single strong person who could be called a ‘warchief.’
“Nonsense! How can it be possible that there are not one, but four strong men equal to the Great Chief!”
“It is clear that Hild Skändmer saw it wrong!”
It’s incredible power. Despite the resistance of the tribal leaders, Brünnhild blocked them with a wave of his hand.
“Are they… the Sword Emperor Garland or the Space Witch Josephine Clarani?”
Besides them, there are two more. Brünnhild predicted the worst possibility, but…
“No, it was my first time seeing all four of them.”
Hild doubled the worst she could imagine.
“…….”
It’s difficult. I never would have thought there were four strong people like that. Considering the siege, warriors will be killed in droves.
‘Still, you can win.’
There are 150,000 warriors here. There were well over a thousand knight-level warriors in the kingdom. There are nineteen Valkyries who specialize in war.
If he was once favored by the main god and the leader of the Shield Maidens and the strongest Valkyrie, Brünnhild, there was no way he would lose.
“First of all… we need to show off our power and demand that they surrender. I don’t want innocent blood to be shed as much as possible.”
Send an envoy.
We urge them to surrender, and if they don’t listen, we have no choice but to attack.
That was when Brünnhild came to that conclusion.
-Kwakwauk!
A loud roar echoed through the cold snowy field.
* * * *
“Kaaak…!”
The entrance to a tent erected with a barrier in front. The warrior guarding the place fell into the snow.
There are dozens of similar warriors scattered around him. All of them were stunned by something that struck them like a thunderbolt.
“Ugh…”
The warrior could not close his mouth at the sight that unfolded before him.
“This can’t be right….”
It’s an attack. Someone had torn down the Allied Tribes’ tent and destroyed the entrance.
Who on earth?
What kind of fearless bastard would raid the camp of 150,000 warriors?
What was even more surprising was the half-giant Malak, who was defeated with a single blow.
A great warrior with a height of 3 meters and tremendous strength who could tear apart monsters with his bare hands was rolling around in the snow.
The center of that unfamiliar scene. The warrior identified a being with a power that he and the warriors could never reach.
‘That young warrior…!’
The warrior realized that he was on par with the great warriors of his tribe.
“You bastard…! Who are you!”
“Oh… this reaction is refreshing. After all, there are no newspapers in North Kingdom.”
“what?”
Leaving behind the mesmerized warriors, Corin was glad to see those who did not understand his reputation.
“Where is your leader? There are so many people that we should be able to find him.”
“Insolent…”
The warrior raised his axe. I know that I am a force that cannot be defeated.
However, you can’t bow down in front of everyone.
If I die fighting someone as strong as him, the Shield Maiden will also lead me to Valhalla.
At least it would be possible to hold the enemy for a few seconds until the great warriors arrive.
“…….”
Corin watched those slowly standing up, including the warrior in front of him.
In order not to kill him, he struck with only a shock wave. If you know the gap in power just by that, the fighting spirit shown is truly a model of a warrior.
“I don’t hate it. All men admire it.”
However, it is just annoying to me as I have no intention of killing it.
“Respect the strong! We will lose our lives because we are the weak, but our great warriors and shield maidens will break down your humble barrier!”
The epitome of North Kingdom. Strong pride.
The simple logic is that it is natural for the powerful to trample on the weak.
Therefore, the reason they die is because they are the weak, and the reason the wall collapses is because they are the weak.
“Anyway, that’s the mentality of macho bastards…”
Corin’s voice became colder than the chill of the snowy field.
How could that beast-like warrior, as hot as the blazing sun, give off such a cold and bitter aura?
The warriors swallowed their saliva and grabbed their swords and axes, but the opponents did not aim for their own sake.
-Kang!
The warrior holding the ax tilted his head.
For a split second, something passed by my throat. A stab wound remained on the nape of his neck, and hot blood flowed out.
“……wind?”
Can such a heavy and sharp wind exist?
When he saw Corin with his spear extended towards him, he realized that he was alive thanks to the mercy shown by the young man from Irip.
“Damn it! Are you insulting me? Kill me!!”
A warrior cried out in humiliation, and dozens of warriors rushed forward.
Corin waited silently for them to approach me.
And the ax thrust. Just as dozens of weapons were about to strike and cut him down, he raised his right foot——
-Bang!
──I hit the floor.
“Khaak?!”
“Ugh!”
Warriors falling away with snow falling in all directions. I just stepped on it and trampled it, and the shock wave alone sent warriors flying in all directions.
That overwhelming power.
and.
“Inoom…!”
A loud voice fell from the sky.
-Quwaaaang!
A huge shadow falling with a heavy weight. Corin blocked the ax’s strike with his spear.
-Kwasik!
At the moment of impact, the ground cannot withstand and is crushed. The enormous wind pressure sweeps the snow field back to the level it was before the snow fell. No, even the dead grass roots were torn off.
The power of the ax struck with great force was that great, and the spear blocking the ax did not even budge.
‘Block my axe?’
Thorkel immediately stepped back and grabbed his axe.
He is a huge man, capable of reaching 4 meters in height, and is the leader of the Black Ax tribe, made up of half-giants.
“The little guy is quite the guy.”
Even though he was an opponent who easily withstood his might, Thorkell’s eyes were shining with his desire to win against the strong.
and.
Warriors poured out from the center of the tent.
Among them were half-giants, shamans, and great warriors that the allied tribes were proud of.
The number was a whopping one hundred.
Thorkel put the ax on his shoulder and asked Corrin.
“Who are you? What are you here for?”
Corin calmly stated his business.
“You are no match for me. So Brünnhilt, come out. Only at that level can a fight be concluded.”
“”………….””
No one made a sound.
It’s not because I’m embarrassed or embarrassed.
It was only anger.
The hundred warriors, including Thorkel, the leader of the Black Ax tribe, were barely able to contain their explosive anger within their thin skin.
“How dare you face the sacred Skade Mer!!”
With just a voice, the pressure in the air layer exploded and the snow field flew around.
The intangible energy that knights call Auror covered Thorkel’s whole body and burned.
It wasn’t just Thorkell.
One hundred warriors waiting behind him.
And the hundreds and thousands of warriors behind them.
Tens of thousands of invisible warriors will tear this barbarian to pieces with their fierce spirit.
Skade-de-Mer.
A full body shield maiden.
The beautiful Valkyries who continued to lead the northerners even after the end of the gods.
This man dared to face it.
Even someone who is neither the great warrior of the North nor the tribal leader dares.
Even in the face of his unconcealed fierceness and spirit, Corin paid no heed.
His back was straight and unbending, and his sturdy forearms showed strong veins.
At the same time, his internal power roared out as if it could push heaven and earth.
-Coooooooooo!
A bizarre roar came out.
The chill was replaced by heat, the snow melted, and the cold wave evaporated.
Corrin said.
“The leader of the Valkyries. I need to meet Brünnhild.”
The sun moved along with the footsteps.
The ground, which had been a snowy field until just now, heated up and evaporated in an instant.
-Chi-ik!
It was a sight that the northern wildlings had never seen before.
The snow melted and evaporated, and now the ground is boiling.
Corrin felt eyes focused on him.
Until just a moment ago, they were warriors who were leisurely burning their passion for victory.
All of their eyes were focused on only one person.
He looked at Corinne, full of awe and fear.
He didn’t move anymore. He just waited in silence.
Then someone came towards him.
