Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 423
Chapter 75. I should become a great wizard (4)
– Kaaaaang!
The broken sword took a few turns and landed on the ground.
But no one paid attention to that appearance.
– Boom!
As he threw away his useless sword and took out a dagger, Slayman’s sword was caught on his waist. In normal cases, fairly thick armor would have blocked the sword, but in a situation where a sword overflowing with blue aura was encountered, there was no difference between armor and human skin.
– Lots of cards…!
– Kwasik!
The armor, which had been dented as it was, eventually split open as if torn apart. The heavy blade of the sword penetrated the gap, slicing through the weak flesh of the person and shattering what was inside.
Slayman took out the sword from the armor that had helped extend the wearer’s life by a few seconds and launched himself at the next one that was charging at him without stopping.
The guy who caught the eye of the continent’s second sword master stretched out his sword. Then the two prosecutors nearby rushed towards Slayman together.
– Kaaang kaaang!
Instead of the sound of water in the valley that used to disturb my ears, the sound of a cold knife making the mountain resound.
Slayman, who was rushing forward, suddenly took a step. And he held the sword handle of the guy who was running behind him between his arm and his side and tightened it tightly.
– Cheonggang!
The swordsman, whose hand was caught between Sleiman’s side and elbow, was unable to overcome the pressure on his wrist and let go of his sword. As if he had been waiting for this, Slayman turned behind him and struck the guy in the face with the handle of his sword.
– Bye!
– …… Boom!
That doesn’t sound pleasant.
The dead knight falls down helplessly with his forehead caved in.
Sleiman took a deep breath as he checked the sight and swung his sword in the direction he had originally intended to head.
– Kaaang kagak! Kang!
– Kagaga River!
The blue aura that destroyed the two swords that glowed red continued to spread without getting tired. Then, not only did it cut off the armor and chest of the guy standing nearby, it dug into half of the neck of the guy standing behind him before returning to Sleiman.
“after.”
Sleiman took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the sword as he watched the men attacking him without knowing the end.
one person.
If only there was one more person.
I wish I had killed them all a long time ago and started walking again!
Even though he knew it was useless, Slayman, who had already given up on the idea for several times, kicked his foot.
– Coo!
Where does such elasticity come from in the massive body?
Sleiman, who moved as if he was flying a few steps forward in an instant without even closing his arms, thrust his sword towards another swordsman. He kicked the guy whose neck was pierced with the sword and sent him away, then struck the next guy’s heart and the stomach of the guy standing behind him.
I don’t even know where all those guys came from. The only thing I found out was that there were so many of them, that they couldn’t die from any serious wound, and that about half of them used a red aura of unknown origin.
and.
– Howling!
– Slut!
There’s a wizard among those guys.
“Ronanshite!”
Slayman, who guessed the direction of the fireball, shouted.
Ronanci Te, who was pulling the sword out of the enemy’s heart, grabbed the back of Le Main’s neck who was next to him and urgently bent down.
– Whirr!
– Kwaaaaang!
The fireball narrowly passed over their heads and hit a rock on the other side of the valley. With a roar, half-charred rock fragments can be seen flying in all directions.
“Excuse me, Your Majesty.”
“No.”
I already told you that it doesn’t matter if you continue to be rude.
He did it three times.
Nevertheless, he is a knight by nature. Ronansite, who had said this again for an uncountable number of times, turned back. And I raised my sword straight as if there was nothing to measure.
– Suddenly!
– Coooooo!
A swordsman who ran back without a sound and tried to strike with his sword fell backwards with both arms holding the sword raised high.
Le Main frowned for a moment at the long sword mark on the guy’s chest, then lifted the small bow he was holding in his left hand.
It was the bow that Slayman had picked up and handed to him, held by one of those guys who followed him tirelessly. With the thoughtful words, “If you just stand there, you will be very sorry to us, so please do something to make us feel less sorry.”
The other thing is that even though Lemain is a poor person, he likes hunting next to horseback riding, so he knows how to use a bow. Whether you know how to do something or not, everything is easy.
Well, anyway.
Thanks to this, Lemain, who was shooting for the first time today a creature with two legs other than a creature with four legs or a pair of wings, fired an arrow. And he took aim at the most prominent of his enemies.
– Thick!
A sharp pain, which he felt again today since the day his older brother Asnan cut his side, runs through his nerves and throbs through his head. Lemain frowned for a moment as he felt the same pain for the fewth time today, but it felt like he was far from getting used to it.
However, he did not loosen his grip on his arm. It was clear that if I paid too much attention to such things, Ronansite would once again say I was rude.
– Crash!
The bow was greatly bent due to the demonstration being pulled as it was.
Le Main, enduring his arm shaking, withdrew his hand in protest.
– Peeing!
– Slut!
Conversely, the arrow that escaped the applied force flew like light. And it pierced the head of the wizard standing behind the large tree preparing for the next attack.
– …… Boom!
The sound of a dead body hitting the floor can be faintly heard.
As Le Main turned his head and checked how many arrows were left, Ronanci Tegar, who had already killed two more swordsmen, extended his sword towards Le Main.
– Boo!
The wind blows at the tip of the heavy sword.
Ronansite’s sword stretched out just as it grazed Lemain’s ear and inflicted a deep wound on the neck of the swordsman who was running behind Lemain.
Ronansite gave a monotonous voice as he applied his strength once more and completely cut off the life of a person who could be healed so that he could not recover.
“Excuse me, Your Majesty.”
“…… okay.”
It would be better to just pretend that I am hearing all the apologies I will hear for the rest of my life today.
Lemain, who had made up his mind, gave an appropriate answer.
* * *
My vision, which had become blurry for a moment, returned to its original state.
The sight of the surrounding scenery completely changing in an instant is still unfamiliar, even though I have already experienced it several times.
Calian turned his head and patted the neck of Raven standing next to him. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with Raven, he climbed into the saddle. And then he opened his mouth to Randel, who was silently riding the horse next to him.
“It may make you feel sick at first.”
“It’s too late to tell you to be careful.”
“If I warn you before you move, I’m afraid you’ll be scared. When I go back, I’ll tell you before I move.”
“It is done.”
“If you feel uncomfortable, please tell me.”
“It’s done. That too.”
“yes.”
Kalian, who had no intention of wasting time even though it was uncomfortable, nodded his head willingly. And I exchanged brief greetings with the wizards, who were quite surprised to find that there was a crown prince and two princes among the first guests who came through the moving magic circle.
Calian, who soon passed the barrier surrounding the moving magic circle and came out, turned his head back.
“Aila. Kirie.”
“yes.”
“Yes, my prince.”
“Come and stand in front.”
“yes.”
“All right.”
From now on, I had to be cautious of my surroundings.
– Diverse.
Kalian stepped forward with one of his feet. Then, Kirie came to the right of Planz and Aila came to the left of Randel. Since we came together, Uriah naturally took the lead in her group.
“Lord Siren.”
“Yes, my prince.”
“Please keep a tight guard around the area. They are skilled enough to have caught Lord Siegfried or made him retreat.”
“Don’t worry.”
Nodding his head, Calian opened his mouth, looking at his two brothers one at a time.
“I won’t ask you to do anything, so you two don’t fight.”
Although they must have heard that and didn’t know who the ‘two people’ Calian was talking about were, Pea and Cornsilk didn’t give much of an answer.
There is no need to guess his true feelings. One reason is that I was in a lot of trouble in my head and I couldn’t tell my younger brother to stop barking in front of so many listening ears, and another reason was that I didn’t feel the need to respond at all because my younger brother’s words didn’t sound like words. It could be said that the reasons for the two silences are very similar.
– Multi-faceted, multi-faceted.
Calian, who wasn’t even waiting for an answer anyway, turned his head back and with that Raven started moving forward.
“Calian.”
Plantz, who had set off Estina, finally opened his mouth.
“yes.”
“I think you’re thinking of taking the road.”
“you’re right.”
“why.”
“The Margrave of Shurinz is searching through the inside of Shurinz Castle. If His Majesty is held somewhere, the Margrave will find you because the castle gates do not open at dawn and you would not have been able to escape. Rather, if you are escaping through a secret passage, the moving magic circle “He’s probably heading towards that direction. Of course, if he’s running away, he can’t find a horse or run back on a clear road, so he has to go over the mountain.”
“therefore.”
They are saying that they should leave the castle of Schrinz to the Margrave of Schrinz for now and search in the mountains where Lemain might be coming. It must have been something he said as he started running his horse on a well-paved road with mountains all around him. If you want to find Le Main, he should go into the mountains, not on the road.
It’s good that he thought that far, but Calian’s answer was relayed to Plantz, who missed one thing.
“The mountains are more rugged than I thought. Even though it’s only two hours away, that’s only on horseback. Even if you just walked all night without doing anything else, you would never come beyond these mountains.”
– Tap, tap, tap!
Soon Raven kicked his feet and started running.
“I don’t know how many hours ago you left, but even assuming you walked the longest, at most… 20 or 30 minutes by horse from Schurinz. In fact, I would be glad if you came that far.”
Calian, who was sitting without much shaking on the saddle of Raven, which was running at high speed but did not lose its elegance, spoke.
“So, it is better to get to the nearby area as quickly as possible and then go into the mountain to search for it. As long as Duke Siegfried is safe and you remember the location of the magic circle, Duke Siegfried will find a path that is easy for you to walk and guide you. “I can guess which direction you’re coming from by looking at it after climbing the mountain.”
“…… If not.”
“I heard that the terrain north of Schrinz is too rough for people to travel through. The exit of the secret passage leads to the southwest. Contrary to expectations, even if Prince Siegfried is not safe or your highness does not know the exact location of the magic circle, you should move rather than heading north. There is a high possibility that you are heading towards where the magic circle will be. If you go further in the same direction, isn’t there the County of Aprin? You may think that Count Aprin is on my side, so you can take shelter there.”
Plantz nodded his head without answering.
He didn’t turn his head to see it, but he must have agreed. Calian increased Raven’s speed a little more.
He was very disappointed that he could not come with Rachel, who was away due to establishing a branch of the magic school in the southern region.
And he ignored the body that informed him of the results of using the moving magic circle, as he was not completely healed just by sleeping well and eating a lot.
* * *
– Kwasik!
Ronansite retrieved her outstretched sword and swung it to the side, piercing the heart of the knight who was charging at her side. Afterwards, when the sword stuck in the guy’s armor could not be pulled out right away, he kicked the guy with his long leg and pulled out the sword.
Hot blood pours out and wets the ground.
Soon, three knights rushed towards Lemain.
– Kaang kang!
– Kagang!
Then, Ronansite quickly blocked their path and blocked the swords of two people, cutting away the swords of the other person as well.
The swordsman, who retrieved his sword from the three entangled swords, sent an attack towards Ronansite. Ronansite, who hit it again, bounced his waist and pushed the guy’s sword away. And the second swordsman raised his sword sideways to block the red aura-filled sword in his hand.
It seems like he was waiting for Ronansite’s hands to be tied.
The third swordsman’s sword rushed towards Ronansite. The first swordsman, who had fully grasped his own sword, also rushed towards Ronanci Te.
– Hwiik!
– Kang! Kaga River!
With Lemain behind me, I couldn’t turn my body to avoid it. Ronansite pushed back the red sword with great force and slashed the knight next to him for a long time. A man with a long sword wound extending from his shoulder to around his navel can be seen taking a few steps back and falling to the floor.
He has no time to catch his breath.
One swordsman with a red aura and another swordsman. Because there are still two left.
– Kaang! Kang! Kaaaaang!
Ronan City Te, who continued to block the attacks of the two men while ignoring the red energy that was disturbing his vision, moved his heavy sword with one hand and held it. While supporting the two swords with one hand, he lowered his free hand. Then he pulled out the dagger that was strapped to his thigh and swung it at the guy standing in front of him.
– Suddenly!
Blood from a crack under his chin poured onto Ronanci Te’s face. Ignoring that too, Ronanci Te threw away the dagger he was holding and then grabbed it again with both hands. And before he knew it, he raised the red sword that was approaching his nose and struck it.
– Kaaaaang!
A sharp sound shakes the mountain once again.
– Kaaang kang kaaang! Kaga River!
He pushed back the flying sword with the handle of the sword, swung the sword towards the opponent’s wrist, pushed away the slashing sword strike, and stabbed the sword towards the man’s waist. When it was blocked, he swung again and aimed for the man’s neck.
– Boo!
– Kaaang kaaang!
The heavy pounding sound continued without stopping.
The sword found an empty space and stabbed, causing a deep cut in the man’s waist. However, Ronansite was not relieved and continued to attack. Because he knew that if he didn’t die right away, he would heal soon anyway.
Red light scatters.
Meanwhile, there was the sound of Lemain, who was standing behind him, firing his bow once again. Since he didn’t have enough arrows, he was only shooting at those who were clearly identified as wizards.
– Kaaang kaaang!
The sound of Slayman fighting his sword continues in the distance.
Ronansite held his breath once more and put all his strength into his legs. He kicked his bulging legs and flew towards him. Then, he found Ronansite’s empty space, blocked the sword’s extended sword with the handle of the sword, and pushed it away. Putting his shoulder under the guy’s raised arm, he stopped the guy from attacking for a moment, then twisted the sword he was holding and slashed at the guy.
– Cards galore!
– …… Kwasik!
A heavy sword entered between the seams of the armor and split the man’s chest. And he pierced the heart inside.
– Boom!
He finally closes his eyes and collapses against an enemy he has been competing with for quite some time.
Ronansi Tega let out a long breath and pulled out his sword from the guy’s chest.
“kyung.”
But at that time, Lemain, who was standing behind him, called Ronancité.
At that sound, Ronansite instinctively lowered his head.
– Boom!
The sword he barely escaped passed over Ronansi Te’s head. Ronansite immediately stood up and aimed his sword. however
– Hwiik!
Another sword was slashing at Ronansite.
Ronanci Te raised his arms. He blocked the guy’s sword with his bare arm and saved his life.
Ronansite gritted his teeth.
The guy’s sword rushes in.
That moment.
– Slut!
– Kwasik!
A strong pounding sound followed, followed by the sound of bones breaking.
Fortunately, the sound did not come from Ronansite’s arm.
– Slurp…… Boom!
The guy who was extending his sword as if he was going to cut off his arm at any moment grazed Ronanci Te and fell forward.
– Bang!
The silver sword that pierced the guy’s neck tilted to the side and fell to the floor.
Ronansite moved without having time to understand the situation and plunged his sword into the jaw of the remaining one. Bang again. The huge body rolled around on the floor.
Ronanci Te turned his head and bowed for a moment.
I picked up any of the swords lying around and threw them towards Slayman, who had saved my knight commander.
– Ugh!
Nodding his head towards Ronansite, Slayman swung his sword filled with blue aura.
– Card duk kwajik!
With the sound of bones crunching, the man, whose back was bent in an unusual direction, fell down the valley and disappeared.
He was the last enemy of the fourth fight.
– Shoot…!
The forgotten sound of the valley water can be heard again.
* * *
Should I tie it or not?
After thinking for a moment, Calian tied the reins of the six horses together and fastened them to Raven’s saddle. And he said, stroking Raven’s mane.
“Take care of your friends and hide nearby. It will take a long time, so watch what they eat and eat some too. Don’t starve just because you don’t have anything to eat in a place where there is grass.”
Purr!
Raven, who was clearly the smartest of the six horses, gave the answer. And then he walked leisurely into the bush, carrying the saddle and his ‘friends’ who were like lumps of luggage tied to the saddle.
Kalian looked at his companions.
Euria, Kirie, and Aela have nothing to worry about. Even Plantz, who surprisingly didn’t seem to find it difficult to walk or run for long distances, decided not to worry for now. the problem is.
“Brother Randel.”
The highest point I have climbed in my life is the 5th floor of the Chermil Palace, the farthest I have walked in my life is from the 5th floor to the rose garden, the most difficult work I have ever done is scissoring, and the most active thing I have ever done is dynamic work. Corn silk is all about scissors.
Cornbeard’s calm answer was delivered.
“Talk to me.”
“If you get tired while climbing, just tell me. I’ll carry you on my back.”
“It is done.”
“yes.”
Calian, a fair-minded person who had patience and had only one word of consideration, smiled brightly. I started walking after climbing as high as I could on horseback, so it wouldn’t be so difficult that I would die.
Soon Calian moved his feet into the depths of the mountains, which he had only occasionally seen in Secretia. They were followed by Plantz and Kirie, followed by Eila and Randel, and finally Euria. So the whole group started climbing the mountain.
About two hours like that.
Calian, who had chosen the path considering Randel, was picking a gentle terrain and picking his feet.
“Prince Calian.”
Euria’s voice was heard.
– Sarah.
Calian, who had been extending his arm to cut off a tree branch blocking his path, stopped in his tracks. And he opened his mouth, looking at the distant mountains surrounded by layers.
“Did you find it?”
“I don’t know if Your Highness is with us, but there is a movement of magical energy.”
The person who can most accurately confirm whether Lemain is among them is Kyrie. Because I can hear Lemain’s footsteps. However, in order for Kyrie to check it, he had to get close to a reasonable distance, and Euria’s search range was much wider than that.
Calian asked, nodding her head and turning towards Euria.
“Which one?”
Then Euria, who looked at Randel and Planz for a moment, stretched out her arms.
“Northeast, that direction to be exact.”
“…… ah.”
Calian sighed after checking the direction.
Because the tip of his finger was pointing to the mountain on the other side that was visible in front of him.
This meant that I had to go down to the other side of the mountain I had climbed so far and then climb back up. There were no problems for Calian or Euria, as well as Kirie and Aela, but it was unwelcome news for Randel, who had already taken off his jacket and draped it over his arm. Even to Plants, who seems to be in a hurry.
“There’s a bridge. Even if you have to go back a little bit, it’ll be better than going all the way down and up again.”
But this word was conveyed.
It was Aila.
Calian turned his head towards Aela. It was clear that I was going to ask how you knew about a place I didn’t know about, so Aila answered first.
“There was a time when a nobleman who went to Shurinz and was running low on money sold some old clothes, but they were so expensive that I just stole them.”
It is said that he passed through this mountain road while running away after stealing a shoe without paying for it. Calian chuckled and nodded. There is no need to say anything else about stealing. Why would an aristocrat who went to a hot spring resort be short of money? I must have gambled.
Even if a guy like that gets hurt a little, it’s worth it.
“Good job.”
“Okay then. I’m good at everything.”
“Lead me there, Aila.”
“all right.”
Eila nodded willingly and went ahead, checking the surroundings.
Uria once again uses her magical power to explore, so Kirie listens to even the smallest sound, Randel doesn’t say it’s hard, and Plants doesn’t have anything to say.
Everyone moved quietly like that.
And when we climbed some more mountain.
“On the other side. I can hear you.”
Kyrie opened her mouth.
Calian, who was looking at the long, narrow bridge that spanned the valley of unknown depth, opened his mouth.
“who.”
However, instead of Calian’s voice, Plantz’s words came out first.
Kirie, who had been listening for a while, answered.
“It seems to be Lord Siegfried and Sir Ronansite. Lord Siegfried’s steps are not steady. And… Your Majesty. I can also hear your footsteps.”
Only Slay was injured.
Ronancité and Lemain are alive.
That’s fortunate. Injured things can be fixed somehow.
“Okay. Then come on.”
“Twenty, no, twenty-four… twenty-six. There could be more. There are people chasing after you, prince.”
Calian frowned when he heard those words.
My legs were narrow. Should I hurry across the bridge and fight with the valley behind me? Should I hurry up and help Slayman across the bridge to deal with them? Should I cross the bridge without being caught up by them? He didn’t have time to think for long.
The priority is to cross the bridge, check Slayman’s condition, and protect Lemain. Thinking like that, Calian stood up. But at that moment.
– Peeee!
A red light emerged from the mountains on the other side of the valley.
okay.
I saw that a while ago. Didn’t the Vulcans who discovered Calian do the same thing?
“It’s a signal.”
Calian pursed his lips at Aela’s words.
Calian’s eyes narrowed as he looked behind him with sharp eyes.
– Peeing!
Another signal.
Because I saw it rising into the sky. This is because we confirmed that it was not the mountain on the other side, but the direction where Calian’s group had passed.
Calian took a deep breath, then turned his head back to look at Euria.
“Lord Siren.”
“Yes. It looks like there are them on the other side of the mountain as well as on this side.”
“It is at a disadvantage if you fight with your back to the valley and your legs blocked.”
“I’ll go to the other side.”
“No. Stop those who come up this way. I’ll go.”
Calian looked at Randel for a moment.
Would it be better to ask Slayman to be treated right away? He thought about it and then put it away. This is because I remembered that Lemain was also on the other side. If there are two people to protect, the fight becomes difficult.
“all right.”
Euria answered briefly and began to gather her magic power in both her hands.
– Pajijik pajik!
Calian, who noticed that a weak electric current was beginning to flow through those hands and saw Planz holding up the sword instead of insisting on following Eila and Kirie as they drew their swords, turned back.
– Taaat!
Then he started running quickly towards the bridge, which was shaking due to the wind blowing up from the valley.
Beyond that bridge.
Towards the welcome people who are starting to appear little by little.
