Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 153
Episode 153 [If we fall, our next target will be a neutral force. They will make an excuse that they were responding to us. Even the 3rd Prince won’t leave you alone.]
‘You bastard. What happened because of Ji’s actions…’
A bitter smile appeared on the swordsman’s lips as he remembered his student’s threatening request.
But the reason for the threat was so valid that I had no choice but to move.
The only problem was that time was too short.
– Only the Knights of Esperanza and the Cavalry?! It’s dangerous! Even if we gather all the neutral forces, it won’t be enough…
– In the meantime, McLane may be over.
– You can go that way as well. MacLine won’t last even a day! Only our family’s forces will be destroyed, Your Excellency!
[We can endure.]
Adjutant Lewis’s realistic dissuasion and his disciple’s unfounded confidence.
Among them, was he choosing the latter because of his love for his student or because of his sense as an Auror user?
Although he was proud of having cultivated discipline over a long period of time, the reality was that it was still difficult to fully understand his own mind.
Rather than looking for excuses for things that have already happened, Geomgong decided to focus on the reality in front of him.
Because in the distance, a chaos of countless people began to appear vaguely.
“Get ready for Geochang!”
“yes!”
Doo doo doo doo.
250 knights and 3000 cavalry.
And yourself.
At first glance, compared to the enemy army in front of us, which seemed to number in the tens of thousands, it was nothing more than a shabby force, not even a tenth of its size.
But the swordsman was able to speak with confidence.
Even though the number is inferior to the Walter Maim Knights, his knights are the strongest in the kingdom in terms of the level of each member.
The official qualifications for a knight are intermediate force users, and the senior knight is only 40 years old. Two top-class knights and myself, an Auror user.
Even if some of the elite, including Louis, were absent to protect the three princes, it was a force that could be considered the strongest in the kingdom.
Moreover, in other territories, there were nearly 300 trainee knights who would have received formal knight qualifications, leading the cavalry that followed them.
The timing was perfect.
The enemy’s elites were busy sieging from the front, and even seemed to be gathering momentum, rushing further forward.
He could clearly see the faces of the enemy rear troops turning pale as they turned around, as if they had heard the sound of horses’ hooves.
“Break through in a straight line and break the enemy’s center!”
“yes!”
A surefire way to end a war with a small number of troops.
The tip of the swordsman’s sword was pointed at the headquarters of the second prince’s army.
* * * The moment the master’s sword pointed towards the front, most of the members of Viscount Mo’s knights who had bravely rushed in front of him rose into the air.
It was a magical sight, but only Logan, who was watching from afar, could understand the principle.
‘A heavy pressure sword like that…’
The horses that were running were bound by an intangible force and stopped all at once and rolled over.
Soon, even for a moment, I saw a red line drawn in front of the knights swimming in the air.
Eventually, a lie-like scene ensued as the twenty knights, who had been floundering and thrown awkwardly into the air, were split into two halves, upper and lower, at the same time based on the red line.
‘Sonic Blade.’
One of the master’s secret techniques that he didn’t teach himself, saying he didn’t need to learn it.
But seeing that amazing sight filled me with a desire to learn.
Luckily, the knights who survived the blow were trampled by the Esperanza Knights who followed in their master’s footsteps.
Absolutely crushing death that does not tolerate even the slightest resistance.
The rear of the Second Prince’s camp began to split apart, starting with the sight of the 50 or so knights of Viscount’s knights being annihilated in an instant.
So so so so so.
Although I couldn’t really hear that sound, the sight of the rear of the Second Prince’s army being torn apart was impressive enough to make that sound automatically appear in my mind.
Overwhelming. The expression that they were literally no match seemed appropriate.
Of course, the fact that most of the faction’s elites were gathered in front of Saturn made the killing more dramatic, but in any case, it was a sight that seemed to Logan as if a ray of salvation had come down in a situation where the situation was tilting.
‘Master. thank you!’
In fact, it was like turning a blind eye, but there was no crisis as a result.
Because it couldn’t have been an impressive sight only to Logan.
The eyes of Wicken, who was dealing with him, were also colored with astonishment, and the attack virtually stopped.
As Logan looked back at Wicken, he ‘saw’ a faint ray of mana flying into the enemy’s ear.
The moment the guy flinches.
Logan moved first.
Skag.
“Ugh! This guy?!”
shit. Should I have written that now?
“What a shame.”
Logan hid his regret and provoked his enemy with a bitter smile.
However, Wicken, who gritted his teeth, showed an unexpected reaction.
“Boring guy. See you later.”
“hmm?”
Paaaaang.
An enemy who disappears like the wind as soon as you leave a word.
Wicken Callia’s biggest advantage, speed, was still difficult to catch up with even with Ghost Shadow unless Logan used time acceleration.
‘There’s no need to catch up.’
The direction Wicken is heading.
And seeing as the owner of the heterogeneous and powerful magical power felt on the southern wall was also moving in the same direction, their purpose was clear.
‘They’re targeting you, Master.’
– Hahaha! Swordsmanship?! It’s good. Better than these kids…!
Considering the voice of Luther Kyle, who was far away on the other side and was already faintly moving away, it seemed like at least three superhumans had moved to deal with their teacher.
Then…
As soon as Logan finished thinking, he headed up the eastern wall with a lightning movement.
‘hmm?’
For a moment, I was shocked to see my father and Victor Ronian sitting in a similar position with pale complexions.
“The superhumans have escaped from the front line! Pour all your resources into it! Intercept the remaining enemies and those who are turning away!”
Logan quickly cleared out the few remaining enemy knights on the castle wall, who were embarrassed by the superhuman’s sudden departure.
Snake blades that change unpredictably over a range of 78m and extreme reaction speed.
There were no enemies that could properly block even a single blow from Logan’s attack against the superhuman.
“There is no way! I am your opponent…!”
Fuuuuk.
“Ugh…!?”
“You talk too much.”
Even Harvey Miller, the leader of the Tritan Territory and a top knight with the nickname of the Iron Fortress, lost his life in vain while trying to attack.
“Uuuuuu. How…”
Harvey Miller could not believe until his dying moments that his defensive skills, which boasted of being invincible only to those of the same class wearing modified Force Blades in armor and mace, were helplessly pierced.
The vain end of a top-class knight who took advantage of the opportunity while Superin was alone on the castle wall to confront the enemy and invaded and massacred McLane’s troops.
All of the enemy knights who had climbed the walls of Aegis for a brief moment before him were all killed.
Pabababak.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
“Aaaah!”
Beneath the castle wall, screams continued to erupt from McLane’s intensifying counterattack.
“1 2 3 4 groups. One group should stand by each castle wall, and the remaining knights and crossbow cavalry should mount their horses! Help the Duke of Esperanza and pierce through the enemies!”
“older brother!”
“Prince Logan!”
Groups 1 to 4 are the most powerful intermediate knights, Ronian, and the knights led by Victor Eilen and Henderson.
Those close to Logan immediately protested against that instruction.
“Protect the walls! You are the only ones who can protect the walls with a small number of people!”
Logan dismissed the protest with a stern cry.
“Kai! Command the regular soldiers and vigilantes! And as soon as the enemy seems to back down…!”
“Yes! Leave it to me!”
As if there was no need for a long explanation, Kaisolon interrupted Logan.
His condition was not that good, as his complexion was pale and the underside of the armor on his side was stained red, but at least there did not seem to be any problems with his command.
Logan simply nodded his head at those words and jumped into the castle wall first.
And my father, who had regained some of his complexion in that moment, followed right behind.
“Hurry up!”
It was only for a moment that I made eye contact with Eilen, who had come down from the southern wall of the castle to encourage other knights.
Heehee!
“Greek Enan! Open the southern gate! Let’s sortie!”
Logan, riding a horse, quickly gave orders to Clayton’s disciples.
They followed the command without hesitation, but a voice full of puzzlement was heard right next to them.
“South?! You mean towards the 1st prince’s army? Right now, His Excellency Geomgong is towards the 2nd prince’s army…”
“We have to kill the princes during this gap.”
“What?! Are you saying that we should attack the base of the First Prince’s army with just our knights?!”
“The Freeze Mage and the Storm Sword have all gone to deal with the Master. Now is the perfect opportunity to kill the First Prince.”
The fact that the troops of the Esperanza family were able to crush the enemy’s rear was of course due to the strength of the troops, including their teacher, but strictly speaking, the effect of the surprise attack was also great.
Under normal circumstances, even if the combined forces of the McLane and Esperanza duchesses were combined, they would not be able to handle both factions.
So even if McLane helps the Knights of Esperanza now, he will eventually step down.
But there was no need to explain all those circumstances.
Also, whether it is really possible to kill Prince 1.
The sense of urgency was conveyed through his expression and soon moved his father’s heart.
“okay. If we kill Prince 1 and start breaking through to Prince 2, that alone will be a joint attack.”
Padric also talked about only the best case scenario without considering whether the possibility would be realized.
The knights who jumped down the castle wall and took the lead early and took the stairs. The crossbow cavalry that came rolling down through the castle mounted on the horses prepared inside the castle wall.
And then… in response to the prepared spell
,
part of the southern gate opened and the faces of the enemies outside were visible.
“Charge!”
McLane’s elite began to run out of the castle like the wind.
* * * ‘Just a little more, just a little more.’
Clayton tried hard to use magic, resisting the alien magical power that began to bind him from the beginning of the battle.
However, he only failed dozens of times due to his increasingly impatient mind.
The disciples mobilized the golem to help Liberatio. He was moving around frantically, throwing and using auxiliary magic to grab the enemy troops on the castle wall, but the guy who was his teacher was unable to do anything, so he was very resentful of himself. In the
end, he closed his eyes and fell into himself, not even thinking about the surrounding situation. I heard that
after he succeeded in casting Gravity Control thanks to Atlan’s staff, he realized that he could not easily shake off the power of a true mage with his power, which stayed between the boundary between Mana and Magic force. There are two ways.
Either the opposing mage has no power to interfere with him right away, or he breaks the boundary limit and obtains full magical power.
The former is not something he can do, so it may seem unlikely, but the latter .
He decided to try it.
In fact, it was a choice that was close to escaping from reality.
However, that escaping from reality began to show unexpected results.
The magical interference of the only mage in the kingdom showed him all the possibilities beyond the limits he was unaware of, one by one. .
Then, as if the magical interference disappeared like a lie, his power began to evolve as he fully accepted the awakening.
Woo-woo.
A complete ring was added to the circle of his heart.
The moment his power fundamentally changed.
He realized that he was ‘ He realized that he had acquired another attribute and that he had fully ascended to the level of a mage. He felt
as if he, who was just a chick, had become an eagle, the king of the sky.
Clayton opened his eyes and shouted loudly.
“I’ll show you hell. Luther Kyle! Gravity control… huh…?!”
But there was no longer any superhuman to hear that confident shout.
The only thing that came back to the shout that could not be finished was,
“Master! The wizard has gone! Throw a bomb!” All that was left
was a bruise from his best disciple, Grig. His
face was wide open in shame for a moment.
He quickly realized what he had to do.
Ugh. Ugh.
The six circles vibrated powerfully and spewed out magical power.
“Summon Golem. Summon Golem! Move, soldiers of the earth!”
Following his spell, part of the ground inside Saturn began to transform into golems over 3 meters tall. Their
skin looked much sturdier than the golems he had previously summoned, like knights wearing armor. It was visible, and the two hands were not in the shape of human hands but in the shape of blunt maces. There were
as many as 30 such golems .
It was a miracle that they were created without consuming a single magic stone.
Moreover,
“Go! And fight! For victory!”
As if he had no regard for the effect that the destruction of the golem would have on the wizard’s mind, he gave orders for active combat that were different from before. The
surprised gazes of his disciples who turned to him seemed to dilute the shame he felt just before.
“Master, are you crazy?! They warned us so much that the circle would be destroyed!!”
… It was a mistake.
“Be loud! It’s different now. Open the gate!”
“Master!”
The disciples who had been holding him back until the end barely backed down after Clayton raised his magic power and showed them clear evidence before their eyes.
But by then, McLane’s knights had already marched south. About thirty minutes later,
the new superhuman’s vision magic made its debut in the world at a slightly belated timing.
