I’m Not That Kind of Talent - Chapter 324
324. Whose side are you on? (5)
First of all, since they are all under the same ‘Deon Hardt’, the Lofty Knights, who have worked hard to control their emotions, tell them to get out of the way. The 0 Corps members answered no.
The moderate conversation ended there. The Lofty Knights, who had reached the end of their short patience, immediately showed their teeth.
“Get out of the way.”
His attitude, which was always light and rampant, was fierce, as if he was going to rush to wherever he was going at any moment. Regardless of the feeling that it sounded like a wild beast roaring, the 0 Corps members did not even blink.
He simply blocked the path ahead, placed his hand on the weapon, and spoke in a businesslike voice.
“This is Deon’s command. “He told us to prevent our allies from coming in here as well.”
Occasionally magic attacks come and the 11th Legion blocks them. The legions rushing towards this direction were also blocked by the legions following Deonhardt.
Looking at the Lofty Knights who were safer than anyone else, like the eye of a typhoon, in the midst of chaos, the 0 Corps members quietly clenched their fists.
“Even if you gain Master Deon’s favor, the orders we received do not change. “There are no exceptions.”
Since they didn’t even let the corps commander in, do you think they would make an exception for the people in front of them?
I took a quick look around. It seemed as if the existence of the 0th Legion had long been forgotten, and the sight of everyone focusing solely on the Lofty Knights filled the field of view. For some reason, the 0 Corps members found their appearance so funny that they started laughing in a way that did not suit the situation.
‘Yes, it’s worth it.’
The Lofty Knights are the only ones that Deon Hardt gave his heart to. Rather, Lirinel’s memory was surprising as he ordered them not to forget themselves and also to protect the lives of the 0 Corps members.
…We know that we are not as favored by Deon as the humans before us. He knows better than anyone else that the 0th Corps is not on his mind.
but. Nevertheless.
‘Because we belong to Deonhardt.’
No matter what anyone says, or whether the situation that blatantly revolves around the Lofty Knights reminds us of a new fact, looking at the conclusion, nothing has changed in the role, status, or mission of the 0th Corps. There was no reason to reconsider what I already knew.
“So stop talking about how full you are and get out.”
We just have to follow Daeon like a shadow.
He brought us here because it was necessary, and gave us orders because we needed it. In that case, it would be natural to be faithful to that command.
“You sound like you’re full. What does that have to do with the current situation? “Get out of the way!”
“If they come any closer, we will subdue them with force.”
“…shit!”
If you fight here, you will be wasting precious time and stamina.
He is clearly an ally who follows the same Deon Hart, but why has this situation come to be? Milan gritted his teeth.
“Move! “If it’s a fight, I’ll do whatever I can later!”
“We simply follow Deon’s orders.”
“Fuck, I said I was going to relieve Deon’s fatigue, but why are you blocking me like this? If our captain becomes dangerous like this, you will take responsibility?!”
“You have no faith in your superiors.”
“You guys are deifying the captain too much!”
Do you know what an all-powerful hero is? Our captain is also human after all.
I took out my weapon. Other colleagues who read the intention also drew their weapons. Milan glared at his opponent who was blocked and spoke like he was chewing.
“…Now that it’s like this, I’m going to break through even if I have to force it.”
“Do you think they would allow that?”
“I’ll make you get out of the way, you bastard!”
Kagang! Suddenly, an armed conflict broke out.
Those belonging to Deon’s camp stopped as the two groups belonging to Deon Hart fought. Lirinel stammered as if she couldn’t seem to get over her embarrassed feelings even though she reflexively covered herself with a temporary shield to block attacks coming from both sides.
“Uh… Why are the 0th Legion and the Lofty Knights…” Even
if they join forces, it’s not enough, so why are they on the same side doing this?!
Not only must we protect Deon’s beloved Lofty Knights, but we must also protect Deon’s 0th Legion from death. But what should I do if the two groups I’m supposed to protect are attacking each other?!
The corps members also look this way as if waiting for an answer. Regardless of the feeling of wanting to tear out her hair in confusion, Lirinel steadily spit out the command.
“For now… except for the two armies’ attacks on each other, let’s block all other attacks.”
Leave the conflict between the two alone and focus on protecting them both from other legions.
It’s not a bad decision. Likewise, other Deon corps commanders, frozen in embarrassment, hurriedly issued the same order.
Contrary to concerns, the conflict between Legion 0 and the Lofty Knights ended sooner than expected.
“I’m passing by!”
“This way too!”
“…Damn it!”
In the first place, it is not a fight to kill each other, but a clash between those trying to pass and those trying to block. If the street was narrow, it would have been difficult to block people trying to pass by in an open space that had no street corner at all.
If the opponent had been anyone else, they would have been able to stall for time by grabbing their ankles, but the Lofty Knights actively utilized their unique distraction and trickery based on their well-matched hands and feet.
‘They said they would make it out of the way.’
Who knew it would be this way?
It makes a fuss on one side, attracting attention, and on the other side, it looks for a gap and passes through. When I looked back to see what was happening, this time I saw the person who was making a fuss pass by leisurely.
It was a truly peaceful yet irritating method.
‘…Should I chase him?’
Even as he thought about that, the 0 Corps member who was currently in charge of temporary command of the 0 Corps stopped walking after him. Colleagues who were moving to chase him were also called out.
Because there were still people trying to pass through this place. To those who were looking at him asking why he wasn’t going to catch them, he gestured with his chin and pointed at the other corps that were tangled together.
Those who saw the hostile legions clearly trying to chase after Lofty looked convinced. An order accompanied by an explanation followed.
“First of all, fortunately among our misfortunes, the Lofty Knights we missed are our allies. Apart from failing the mission I was given, it wouldn’t cause much harm to him. The problem is the other legions trying to follow in their footsteps.”
“….”
“I can’t make the same mistake again. is not it?”
Bringing in allies and bringing in enemies are completely different. Even if you are an enemy, you will be less embarrassed later if you block it clearly.
They attacked and stopped other corps members who were trying to chase after Lofty, treating them as if they were not there, and spoke softly.
“Let’s make sure to stop even the enemy.”
As if those words were a signal and a promise, the 0 Corps members all gathered their momentum. It watches the movements of the hostile corps with its resolutely shining eyes and immediately attacks when they try to cross the set line. The legions were tied down by an invisible line.
I heard someone shouting in a frustrating situation.
“What are you doing? “Hurry up and don’t pierce it!”
The enemy corps attacks as if pushing or pulling out the 0 corps, which is strictly standing and fighting. Deon’s legion crossed the line to block the threatening attack and cover the Lofty Knights who had entered inside. In a situation where one ally had already been sent, it would be foolish to block another ally, and just blocking the hostile forces would be too much for one’s strength. Thanks to the 0 Corps’ bold sending, there was no needless conflict.
Moreover, I couldn’t stop the people who protected me by being ungrateful.
“Ah…”
Nevertheless, it seemed like it was too much to withstand the attacks of multiple legions, and one side was breached.
As if they had been waiting, the enemies rush past inside. In the first place, it was ridiculous for one corps to survive against multiple corps… but still.
‘I thought I could buy some time since they were fighting among themselves.’
While attacking to break through Corps 0, the Demon King and the Third Force were attacking each other. Still, I can’t even take the time properly.
I felt incompetent and let out a despairing groan… but there was an even more desperate situation than that.
“…haha.”
In addition to the 5th Legion, which went first to cover the Lofty Knights, the 11th Legion also headed inward, as if they were worried about the Lofty Knights as the enemy passed through. It was a corps that stood in the middle, watching both the direction the knights were going and providing strong protection.
The only remaining allies are the 1st and 9th corps. They are good at trampling on their opponents with force, but not at protecting them. Besides, they wouldn’t try to protect the 0th Corps even in this situation where they were outnumbered.
we will die I laughed inexplicably myself.
“But wouldn’t it be less unfair if I wiped out at least one hostile army and died?”
That way, we can save some face as a member of the 0 Corps.
You will never die alone. After compromising and compromising with reality, the members of Corps 0 fixed their weapons, solidifying their only remaining pride.
***
In order to protect it, it would have been convenient for the target to be in one place, but Deon’s legions did not block or impede the path of the Lofty Knights. The knights, who knew this well, simply silently blocked the incoming attacks and happily shouted out their gratitude to those who provided cover.
‘I don’t know how much cover you plan on giving, but… I’m thankful for what I’m thankful for!’
How much cover should be provided was something that Lirinel and Dernivan were also worried about.
The pursuing enemy corps are the 2nd and 4th corps. Like those who use their brains, they are not giving up easily because they know that the Lofty Knights are a group that can take hold of Deonhardt’s spirit and shake him.
‘I’d rather lead you to Deon… No, no. ‘There are a lot of heroes there, so it might actually be a hindrance.’
If you let them go there for no reason, they will become a hindrance when they become dangerous. Conversely, it could break Deon’s spirit. Ririnel, who was moving through the sky and looking at the knights with anxious eyes, shook her head.
How far did you go? At the end of your journey, you crossed a certain invisible area.
Stumble-.
“!?”
With a strange pressure, the body that was floating in the air began to fall helplessly.
“uh…? uh??”
I quickly try to float again, but the magic doesn’t work. Lirinel knew this feeling.
‘Magic Suppression Jin!’
In addition to that, the pressure on the body is unusual, as if other forces are also installed. Even the corps members who tried to accept their superiors fell under the pressure, and Lirinel, who fell on top of them as if crushing them, immediately flew away and escaped Jin’s range.
After barely regaining my composure, I noticed other guys recklessly stepping into Jin’s range and then retreating in horror.
‘It was definitely a feeling I never wanted to experience again.’
Lirinel, who was floating with the return of magic, looked back at the Lofty Knights.
The guys who stopped right in front of Jin’s range, perhaps because of the senses of an animal, looked at them blankly as if asking why. I felt absurd for a moment, but then I remembered that this was not the time and opened my mouth.
“…I guess the cover should end here.”
“It doesn’t seem like the other corps have any intention of crossing here anyway, so I guess we can take care of the rest.”
Dernivan also turns around as if he has no intention of setting foot in the camp again.
Legions can be seen getting closer and closer as they fight, whether they are trying to join in the distance or are simply outnumbered. Looking at that, it looks like this will be the location of another additional battle.
Lirinel spoke one last time to the Lofty Knights as if warning them.
“You guys are the ones who will cause bigger trouble if you oppress them, so I helped them for now, but don’t die in front of Deon’s eyes. “If you hurt Deon, I won’t let you.”
“…thank you!”
What came back was not an affirmation, but a thank you.
Ririnel, who frowned slightly, tried to say something more, but the Lofty Knights continued to speak as if they would not give him time to speak and entered Jin’s range.
