Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 149

Chapter 149 The allied forces of the factions that withdrew due to McLane’s forces exceeding expectations and Luther Kyle’s injury did not advance again immediately.

I expected movement to be slow since the command center was divided into two, but I couldn’t relax.

Aegis’ Macline troops operated guard forces in two shifts and watched all directions, while the knights and other major leaders stayed up all night with their eyes wide open.

“Have you by any chance received any communication from His Excellency the Duke of Geom?”

“…The neutral forces’ troops may not have all been gathered yet. Moreover, considering the advance time, it will likely take at least another month. So, they probably have some spare time.”

“That’s a dead end for us.”

“We can endure. We have to make it exist even without it. And we have already succeeded once.”

However, even Logan’s confident expression could not completely erase Padrick’s anxiety.

“But it is known that the fire sword and ice mage are one step above the storm sword and half-giant. Can you stop them too?”

“They cannot stay far away from the prince, who is the justification for the war. Just like yesterday, Juan Douglas’s magic will come in from time to time. And to that extent…” “

Yes, my daughter-in-law did a good job blocking it. That sword. Thank you very much.”

“Daughter-in-law, hmm. Hmm. Yes.”

“Whew, okay. I’m sorry for always sounding weak. Let’s try our best.”

The next morning, when Padrick had gathered his composure once again.

McLane saw a slightly different sight than expected.

“Stretch your necks, you crouching cowards of McLane!”

A loud voice echoing throughout the battlefield.

As the gray-haired giant who had everyone’s attention began to move, a red haze shimmered from his body.

The moment the giant ran, the red haze quickly turned into a huge fire, creating an optical illusion as if a red shooting star was coming.

Even those who couldn’t recognize him at first due to the distance were immediately able to recall his name as he looked like a symbol of one of the most famous people in the kingdom.

“Fire sword!”

“It’s Duke Waltermime!”

Unlike yesterday, the superhuman that emerged from the Second Prince’s camp was not Half Giant Luther Kyle, but The Flame Sword Jordan Waltermime.

An Auror user known as the second-in-command of the kingdom.

And he was one of the leaders of the opposing enemy forces.

“Kill!”

“If only I killed that guy!”

Before Logan could even give instructions, crossbows were fired from the hands of several soldiers.

This happened even before the Duke of Jordan came within range, and the surrounding soldiers also fired crossbows.

As a result, it ended up being like a strangely accelerated fireball(?) jumping into that shower of quarrels.

Logan, who was about to vent his anger, stops.

I knew it.

Pabababak.

The quarrels bounced off badly, and the fireball shot straight over the castle wall as if it was not affected at all.

“Where!”

This time too, before Logan could ask for anything, he felt a huge amount of magical energy moving behind him.

Soon the rising fireball collapsed to the ground.

Gravity Control.

Clayton’s magic, which gained confidence by knocking Luther Kyle down, also worked on Jordan, a superhuman of a higher rank than him.

“Throw it!”

And the knights nearby quickly threw red-hot stones at Jordan.

In an instant, about 30 Liberatios accurately hit the fireball.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

There was a huge explosion and a huge cloud of dust rose up.

“Gotcha…!”

“Keep throwing! Don’t stop!”

Just as the surrounding soldiers were about to burst into cheers, Logan’s shout urged the knights.

“Troublesome things!!”

A red aura is flowing through the dust along with a growling voice of a huge beast, or rather a demonic beast.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

Jordan Walter Maim, who was trying to rise due to Liberatio falling again, fell to the ground again.

However, the impact of McLane’s new weapon on the superhumans was only limited.

The red aura visible through the dust was growing larger rather than shrinking.

“All groups 1, 2, and 3 just focus on the operation! Keep throwing!”

As Logan shouted, the knights continued to throw weapons.

“Vigilante groups 1 to 5! They’re all only targeting that target! They even have the same hair color as me! They’ll think it’s me and kill them!!”

Along with the shouts of Kaisolon, the famous general instructor and demon instructor, the rain of Quarrel shot down again.

“You little bastards…!”

Pabababak.

Wow!

‘It’s scary strong. Well, that’s a good thing.’

Logan gritted his teeth as he looked at the red auror whose spirit had not died at all even under heavy fire.

The fact that he was able to withstand such a concentrated attack head-on even after being hit by a 6-circle spell was absurd.

However, it still prevented the superhuman from climbing directly onto the castle wall.

It would be really convenient if other superhumans could also be blocked like that…

“Grand Prince! To the south!”

Crackling.

“Goes!”

Wicken Callia, the superhuman of the 1st Prince’s army, was someone whom projectile weapons could not do anything about.

A compatibility issue that has nothing to do with the known differences in the power of superhumans.

‘I have to stop the author myself.’

Fortunately, thanks to the achievements made since the last war, it was proven yesterday that the Aurors’ destructive properties could be ignored and endured.

‘you can do it. No, maybe even more….’

Logan felt that he was improving little by little through fierce battles with superhumans.

He fueled his fighting spirit and rushed towards the superhuman flying over the castle wall with a silver wind swirling around him.

Unlike the first battle, the factional coalition forces did not retreat easily.

McLane’s unexpected strength had already been determined from the previous battle, and Choin, unlike yesterday, was holding firm at the front.

However, despite this, the significant sacrifices made by the new weapon’s overwhelming firepower were lowering the morale of the faction’s soldiers in real time.

The situation was a little different on the eastern wall.

There were some gaps due to the firepower concentrated on the Duke of Jordan.

Through that gap, the knights built a foothold by driving their spears and swords into the slippery and strong castle wall, and through this they succeeded in climbing up the castle wall one after another.

But what awaits them is…

“Swamp!”

“Solid!”

“Clay binding!”

The floor suddenly turned into a swamp, the large soldiers’ shields glowed yellow, and a shower of mud entangled their entire bodies.

The power of the golem tower wizards who were driven and placed on the eastern wall due to the 2nd Prince’s army, which had a particularly large number of knights.

“this!”

“Damn it!”

“He’s a wizard!”

The swords of the McLane knights flew mercilessly at the knights whose movements were so slow.

“Ugh!”

In the beginning, McLane’s power distribution seemed to shine.

However, just looking at the numbers alone, the number of troops is more than double.

And the Allied forces’ offensive, which was incomparable in number of knights, the actual main force, continued endlessly, and the number of knights on the castle walls only increased.

“Lord McLane…!”

Sigh.

“Big big!”

“Yeah. That’s me.”

As he frantically cut down enemy knights and watched his son fight, and endured his burning stomach, he saw things that made him extremely anxious.

‘Damn it.’

Top-class knights block quarrels and bombs with force blades just below the castle wall, looking for an opportunity to dig in.

‘Harvey Milner of the Count of Jorge Tritan of the Marquis of Calia, Oliver Ortega of the Cerno family…’

Even at first glance, they are all outstanding people you have heard of.

Including the other unseen people, it was expected that there would be more than ten top knights in the factional alliance.

‘If they jump in in earnest…’

Padric kept having gloomy thoughts.

But at some point, I felt the flow of the hectic battle starting to change.

Every time Eilen felt a strange sensation in her sensitive body, she swung her sword in the empty air.

Every time, a shock wave and a cold air burst out of the air.

Fortunately, Eilen’s sword, Frigus, neutralized most of the cold air, so only a cold wind spread around the area, and even then, few soldiers felt it properly as they were swept away by the heat of the battlefield.

Because they were busy shooting crossbows and slashing at the enemies who were constantly approaching the front line.

“What kind of woman…?!”

Skag.

“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr To only

Today alone, the idiot who discovered it for the 13th time easily sacrificed his life.

I didn’t feel very happy that my gender could be used as a weapon as a knight.

All I did was look for traces of the long-distance magic cast by the mage again, swing my sword, and cut down the knights who came up.

He had already erased from his mind the fact that he, who was in charge of defending the northern wall, was accidentally running wild on the southern wall.

‘Prince Logan fights so hard too.’

Logan, with a pale complexion, fights with superhumans in their own territory.

Eilen was unable to help, so he forced himself to look away from the fight and simply focused on the role in front of him.

But then at some point.

I saw a strange movement in my eyes.

‘Retreating little by little?’

It wasn’t a noticeable retreat, but the knights of the ‘1st Prince’s Army’ were seen retreating to the rear one by one.

And just like Padric, the top knights she was paying attention to also took the opportunity to return to base instead of climbing the castle wall.

Seeing that there were quite a few people who looked like they were frowning and cursing, it seemed like an order they couldn’t refuse had come from above, regardless of their will.

‘Why?’

And at a certain point, only a small number of knights defending against the onslaught of attacks remained under the castle wall and some soldiers firing arrows that could not even reach the castle wall.

If you look at it from afar, it looks like it could be mistaken for a fierce battle continuing, albeit sloppily.

However, the soldiers on the southern and western walls blocking the offensive of the First Prince’s army felt in real time that the knights running up the walls were disappearing one by one and that the battle was becoming easier.

‘what?’

The incomprehensible eating away at my flesh continued for hours.

Only then did a fierce roar come from the mouth of the Duke of Jordan, who was holding out on the eastern wall, devouring countless resources.

“All troops retreat!! Retreat!”

2 An order given by the head of the prince’s army.

Starting with that, the 2nd prince’s army began to retreat like the ebbing tide, and the 1st prince’s army, which had been acting(?) accordingly, also began to hastily retreat.

“uh…?!”

“Go away!”

“Wow!”

“We won again!”

The cries of the soldiers, who were exhausted from the battle, filled the castle walls like thunder.

However, it was a time when even McLane’s leadership was confused and did not know why the enemy was retreating.

“…The reason is obvious.”

“yes?”

Logan said, looking at one place with cold eyes.

“Compare the body count under the walls.”

“ah…!”

“The distrust they have among each other. That is their biggest weakness that will allow us to endure.”

Eilen finally nods and Logan smiles coldly as he looks at both factions retreating.

In the central barracks of the retreating 2nd Prince formation, an angry Shouts were coming out.

Bang!

“What is this, Juan?! Are you trying to come all the way here and overturn the agreement?!”

[Woah. Calm down. There was nothing we could do because the damage to our soldiers was so great.]

“You guys are causing so much damage, are you going to force us to suffer as well? With the enemy in front of you? Even a three-year-old child would know that this is a stupid thing to do! A guy called a magician is that retarded!”

[Be careful what you say, Jordan. Doesn’t that mean our military fought ‘harder’?]

Jordan felt even more angry at the shameless expression on Juan Douglas’s face as seen through the communication port.

“Bullshit! Don’t look at me like a fool Juan. The damage was probably only increased while Wicken was blocked by that kid. If that was unfair, you should have come to the front instead of Wicken. like me! Oh, were you too much of a coward to go to the front line yourself?”

[…You forced yourself to move your heavy butt because Luther retreated after being badly injured, and you are bluffing. Now, I am worried about whether Luther will be able to protect the prince instead of you. ]

“In this situation, it’s a threat. Are you out of your mind, Juan? Are we going to come this far and start a war among ourselves again?”

[Let’s be honest. How about facing the fundamental problem instead of criticizing?]

“Damn…!”

Jordan let out a curse, but Juan didn’t care and continued the story. He continued.

[Why did we stay by the prince’s side? Isn’t it because we don’t trust each other? If we trust each other for just a moment and you and I, Luthor and Wicken, all go to battle, how long can those bat babies stuck on Saturn endure? ?]

“Puhahahaha! The guy who stabbed me in the back just a few hours ago wants us to trust each other again? I didn’t know you had what it takes to be a clown, Juan. It was quite funny.”

[First, I apologize for biting the military.]

“…What?”

Jordan, who had never imagined hearing an apology from Juan, paused.

[So, let’s discuss to prevent something like this from happening again. Let’s try. What would you do if you were in the same situation as me? Would you accept unilateral damage for a common enemy? Don’t be funny, Jordan. You would have made the same choice as me, right?] “….

”

[Yes, you can’t deny it, right? . And while we’re at it, the ones who benefit the most are the bats in that castle. Don’t you get on your nerves just thinking about it? So, let’s make a firm promise.] “…

Tell me in detail.”

The communication between the two superhumans was quite long. It continued.
