Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 378

Episode 378: The saint was not the only one who went against Eilen and the others’ expectations.

“Aran Aran… Miller. Is this Lop and Amil?”

Are you showing off that it’s a pseudonym?

The eyes with that meaning quickly scanned the group.

However, Shingeom soon smiled bitterly and forced himself to stand up.

“Ok.”

“Captain. You don’t have to overdo it…”

“No, no. An important guest has arrived, so we must maintain the minimum level of courtesy.”

Shingeom, who looked haggard and had bandages wrapped all over his body, lowered his head towards the group with a groaning sound.

“I’m sorry for showing you my shabby appearance. This is Harmon Killerbrew.”

“No. I have heard of Shingeom’s great reputation. It is an honor to meet you.”

Eilen, who responded at the front, had a polite attitude, but the faces of the group members who bowed their heads together in the back showed signs of confusion. It was because of a rumor I heard right before infiltrating this place.

The new sword defeated the sword soul.

The true best sword on the continent is the new sword.

Even though he had not yet recovered from his injury, it felt like a medal from the world’s strongest man.

“Well, right now I’m just an ordinary worker who needs your help. Thank you for coming.”

“No. Everyone feels the same sense of crisis as the empire’s violence is taking place.”

“Still, the only ones who have directly extended a helping hand are… you. I would like to thank you again.”

Although Shingeom stumbled, he got off the bed and bowed his head politely.

There was nothing lacking in Shingeom’s attitude, even not bothering to mention the country’s name, perhaps because he was conscious of the paladins who were listening.

“No, you don’t have to go that far…”

“No, I’m just showing the bare minimum of respect. Please accept it.”

As the group bowed their heads to each other, a warm atmosphere naturally prevailed.

“You guys go out now. I have something to talk about with these people for the sake of the war.”

The Paladins’ hesitation, as if it was difficult to leave their seriously injured superior, clearly showed how much they cared for the leader in front of them.

The paladins barely managed to close the door after repeated urging.

Shingeom, who was left alone, looked back at the group again.

“But that person over there looks just like me, doesn’t he?”

The appearance of the new sword pointing at Victor was extremely haggard, but his eyes were sharp.

As a result, Victor, who suddenly received everyone’s attention, could not help but think of a strange idea.

‘Was Lia actually not a genius but just a fool?’

As soon as they came to Seongguk, the two main characters they met immediately discovered their identities. Victor, whose head was already in a state of confusion due to the strange words he had heard from the saint before, ended up glaring at his younger brother unintentionally.

And the younger brother read his older brother’s meaning just by looking at his eyes.

“No!? The saint and this person, no, this person is strange!?”

Victoria was upset, but Harmon smiled and nodded.

“I didn’t see through the magic. I just remembered the feeling and force of the force. By the way, McLane intervened back then as well. This is a great help in many ways. Hehe.”

Do you remember the feeling and momentum of the Force?

Was that possible?

Eilen just sighed and looked at the new sword with a face of abandon.

“The fact that so many people recognize us makes me very worried about whether we can perform well.”

In the Small Kingdom Alliance, perfect camouflage was possible with just the artifact, but here, even with the addition of the mage Victoria’s concealment magic, her identity was discovered.

It was something I couldn’t help but sigh.

However, Shingeom dismissed the group’s concerns.

“You can rest assured about that. Among the imperial troops, only the swordsman would know. Besides, even if he recognized the disguise, there would be no way to know who he was. Isn’t there anyone who knows him personally?”

At those words, the group all shook their heads. Because Logan was the only one who had met a sword spirit in McLane.

Seeing that, Harmon nodded with a small sigh and got straight to the point.

“Once again, we would like to thank you all for coming to the Holy Kingdom. However, even if you join us, we will still be at a disadvantage. In that sense, there is something I would like to ask of you…

” Embarrassment spread across the faces of the group, including Eilen.

* * * It was two days after Eilen and his party arrived that the Empire’s attack began again.

Meanwhile, Seongguk was roughly guessing what the empire was aiming for and wasting time.

The abnormally powerful magic circle that blocks the Great Heaven Barrier, the strongest holy law barrier known to have been given directly by the gods, was an essential element in conquering the Saints.

“Because there were things that were unreasonable in aiming for that in the first place.”

Shingeom did not recover from his serious injuries, and the saint who tried to save him and restore the barrier also failed to recover his depleted sacred power.

It was truly a fatal blow that the two greatest forces of the Seongguk could no longer participate, but the face of the leader of the Seongguk remained calm. This was because they now had sufficient substitutes.

One of them, Viktor, who goes by the pseudonym Miller, accepted Ilya’s words with a wry smile.

“Director Shingeom asked me to take the saint and get out if the worst happens.”

“You are a very faithful person. But if this is really the case, it would be better for the future of the kingdom if Director Harman survives than me.”

Do you really think so?

Looking at the serene expression of the saint, Victor expressed a question in his mind.

The sword of the Holy Kingdom and the spiritual pillar of the Holy Kingdom.

If only one of the two survives and rebuilds the kingdom, it is right that the spiritual leader survives.

Victor thought it was right, even if it excluded his personal feelings.

“…So, stop thinking like last time and take care of yourself. Of course, as long as we’re here, we won’t let you fall so easily.”

“Like last time…?”

“Yes. You told me the other day…”

Victor stopped speaking and looked at the saint’s face.

A saintess looking at herself with curiosity on her pretty face.

The face felt a little unfamiliar, completely different from the haggard one I had seen a few days ago.

“…You said you were sorry for constantly causing trouble.”

“Ah… I did. I will always be grateful to Sir Victor.”

The saintess nodded as if she had finally remembered it.

Victor’s expression became scary as he saw that.

‘…Don’t you remember?!’

Wouldn’t that be something you would forget?

The moment goosebumps appeared all over Ilya’s expression, perhaps because he sensed that awkward expression, also hardened.

I was hurriedly thinking about what excuse Viktor was going to make, but for a moment, I felt a sense of death nearby.

Skag.

Whoops!

A black masked person suddenly appeared in the empty air, with his chest cracked and a fountain of blood gushing out.

“Saint, step back!”

“Ugh! Yes yes!”

Although it wasn’t pleasant, the prediction that the empire would target the powerless saint and the divine sword the moment the war began again turned out to be exactly right.

Ugh.

The gray auror blade flew through the air like lightning.

Although it is not as good as his teacher and master, Logan McLane, it is an encouraging achievement that he is now able to detect the presence of ghosts to some extent.

Now, I was actually glad to see their attack. Thanks to this, I don’t have to worry about coming up with excuses.

But I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.

‘What on earth is happening to you now?’

When Victor’s worry about the saint hiding behind him was growing rapidly in his head.

Outside, the two armies began to clash in earnest.

But the beginning was quite different from what most people, especially the Empire, expected.

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

Taaaaaang!

A strong ripple occurred in the barrier that maintained the great magic formation at the rear of the imperial formation. The shield deflected the sudden attack.

The power contained in the attack was not at an extraordinary level, and Galen’s gaze, which had been directing the flow of magical power, naturally turned towards the barrier. Although it was weak, it couldn’t have been a normal Force Blade with this level of power.

‘Auror?!’

Something I can’t understand at all.

This great magic formation was at the very back of the imperial formation.

But suddenly it was an attack with an aura in the shield?

Even the person who committed the attack was nowhere to be seen, and the escorts also appeared to be fine.

However, only Argen Tussaat, commander of the 5th Corps, who was in command, was glaring into empty space as if he had guessed what had happened.

“No way…”

In Galen’s mind, there was only one situation where this was possible.

‘There is an assassin at the level of the head of ghosts in the Holy Kingdom?’

It was a ridiculous idea.

But he soon realized that he was mistaken.

Taaaaaang!

An intense force hitting the barrier again. Because I was able to confirm its identity with my own eyes.

However, the result was a bit absurd.

An object that flew quickly from a great distance and hit the shield. It was a common item seen countless times on the battlefield.

“arrow?!”

There is a superhuman who can carry Auras with an arrow?

Galen’s face went blank at something he had never heard of before, and after those two shots, no more Auror arrows flew.

“As expected, I’ve prepared everything. A magic circle won’t work.”

Looking at the brown-eyed, brown-haired man who regained his appetite as if regretful, Shingeom laughed out of embarrassment.

He was forced to stay on the castle wall to boost the morale of the soldiers, and his strength showed no signs of recovery yet.

But that didn’t mean his insight disappeared. Harmon immediately recognized the value of this McLane superman who introduced himself as Amil.

‘It’s an auror arrow that can hit a distance of 3km.’

It was a shocking sight to the point where I wanted to see his true self, not his false self.

And as if living up to his expectations, Amilani Bourdelle presented disaster to the onrushing imperial troops.

“All the knights, get ready! Go straight up the castle wall!”

bang!

Recton Agnes, who was leading the imperial army at the front of the army, felt an attack coming and hurriedly swung his sword.

“Ugh!”

The heavy, powerful shock was enough to cause both him and the horse to stumble, but that wasn’t the real problem.

The moment you hit something flying with your sword, the force disappears like the tide.

What it meant was clear.

The power of destruction that brings despair to those who are downgraded. A power that he could not obtain even though he worked hard for 40 years.

“Auror!?”

And as if responding to that scream-like shout, a red light like a thunderbolt pierced between his eyes.

Fuuuuuk.

“Lecton!”

It took only two arrows that took the life of Recton Agnes, the general of the Western 1st Legion.

“arrow!?”

Triss sensed something strange right after the second Ten Thousand Seals, following Recton, fell in vain.

An arrow filled with aura.

The sword spirit of the world was also upset at seeing this for the first time in his life, but he reacted quickly.

“Red Arrow! Don’t block, dodge!”

It was an amazing talent, but it had clear limitations.

Even arrows containing aura are weapons that fly from a long distance. As long as you prepare in advance, it is not something that a top-level engineer cannot avoid.

Beyond the frantically waving flags, the countermeasures spread by word of mouth quickly reached the leading generals.

In the meantime, one other Ten Thousand Seals and several more Thousand Seals fell, but the imperial army reacted quickly after that.

Peeeeee!

“No way!”

Faba Park!

“bout!”

The moment the next attack missed two shots in a row, the red arrows began to aim not at the Ten Thousand Seal or Ten Seal level knights, but at the lower level knights.

And most of them did not have the skill to avoid the red lightning that was shooting right in front of their eyes.

“Aaaahhh!”

“Turn it off!”

“Knight!”

It wasn’t long before we raced towards the castle walls.

The command staff of the Imperial Legion, including three Ten Thousand Seals, and dozens of Guard Knights, the core personnel who commanded the elite soldiers, fell dead.

And the massacre continued without stopping.

Tris’s bloodshot eyes turned to the top of the castle wall at the unexpected disaster.
