Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 93
Episode 93 – Enemy!
It wasn’t long before a faint sounding shout rang out.
“There is an enemy surprise attack on the rear crypt! About 20 enemy knights…!”
The soldier’s urgent report followed.
And Logan smiled after hearing the report.
“20 people… that’s good.”
“yes?”
The soldier who reported looked at him with puzzled eyes.
Logan turned his eyes to the battlefield and shouted loudly.
“All forces!!”
The moment when the McLane soldiers’ attention was focused.
“Charge!”
Logan drew his sword and pointed at the enemy castle.
“yes?”
The soldier who reported the rear surprise looked back and forth between Logan and the rear with a puzzled expression on his face.
“Wow!”
McLane’s knights, who had been engaged in a boring standoff for over half a day, began charging towards the front at that moment.
The crossbow cavalry and infantry followed, and soon even Logan, who had given the order, joined in the sprint.
Doo doo doo doo.
The place where the main camp is left after rushing towards the front.
“What is this… I don’t know.”
The soldier who reported the surprise looked back and forth alternately, and then he also started running towards the front.
When McLane’s troops, which were three times larger than the original, began to rush in, it was natural that the enemy went into an uproar.
“Stop it! Stop it!”
The sight of the enemies so embarrassed that the sight of the enemy commander shouting from the top of the castle wall looks shabby.
However, even if they rained down longbow arrows like crazy from the top of the castle wall, they could not stop the charging Macline knights.
Ta-da-da-da-dang.
The arrows fired by ‘only’ about 500 troops at ‘as many as’ over a hundred knights were not able to knock even a single knight off his horse.
Looking at the scene, Logan let out a sigh of relief.
‘Half of their knights fell to the rear. This is enough. Heinkel will take care of it.’
Even if we can’t take them all out, we can at least keep them locked up here.
That was enough for Logan’s planned operation.
– We will dig a tunnel and tear down the castle wall. It doesn’t take much magic to just destroy the supports of a castle wall underground.
The tunnel operation possible through the combination of earth magic and golems mentioned by Clayton was attractive enough, but it was considered a bit too much for the Tomodo battle that had to be completed before the reinforcements from Bipros arrived.
Even if I calculated as positively as possible, it seemed like the castle wall could only be brought down right before their reinforcements arrived.
So, Logan decided to use it as a way to lure enemy troops by showing it openly.
He even ‘pretended’ to block his gaze with a meaningless crossbow shot.
“What were you going to do if the bait didn’t work?”
When I turned my gaze to the side, I saw a middle-aged giant with the air of a brave warrior.
The wizard Clayton looked much better now in his soldier armor than the robe he usually wore.
“That can’t be possible. The castle walls are shaking in a nervous situation with an army several times larger in front. It would be foolish to stay still.”
The vibration of the castle walls. It was only a bluff caused by Clayton’s magic.
It was bait to catch enemies, and the fishing was successful.
‘Now all we have to do is occupy the castle.’
Burning red eyes looked at the friendly knights who had just arrived at the castle walls.
thud.
The knights who arrived first struck the castle gate.
However, between the slightly broken fragments of the castle gate, a dark metal bar was visible.
The knights immediately turned away from the iron barricade, which was designed to double block the castle gate.
It would be easier to tear down the castle wall than to break through it.
The knights also just poked around just in case.
They immediately stepped back and looked at Logan.
‘excuse me. excuse me. excuse me.’
Logan, who read the momentum beyond the castle wall with his enhanced senses and grasped the enemy’s strength, pointed out three points and stretched out three fingers towards the knights who had arrived right in front of the castle wall.
It meant that it was a position where a senior knight existed.
As promised in advance, the knights avoided that place, stepped on the castle wall, and began to soar upward.
“The enemy is entering the northern wall! Over 30 knights!”
“Fifty knights to the southern wall!”
There was chaos among the enemies on the castle walls.
Logan’s eyes moved quickly as he glanced at the enemy troops moving to block the friendly knights.
“Now we just need to capture it as quickly as possible. Help us.”
“That’s why I’m here.”
Logan briefly moved his gaze to the side as he watched the magic power move within Clayton’s body, who smiled bitterly.
A little distance away, his father, who had completely handed over command to him, was waiting for a signal.
Logan nodded to his father and focused his senses toward the castle wall again.
The highest knight and the strongest senior knight.
The two men at McLane’s maximum strength began to look for gaps in the defense forces on the castle wall in order to destroy the enemy most effectively.
The two knights who were fighting the most passionately came into Logan’s field of vision.
‘Oh my…’
Both of them are people he cares about.
However, both were drawing too much attention from the enemy.
However, it is impossible to stop their performance on the battlefield.
It wasn’t the right direction for the growth of those I cared about.
They were even doing so well that their worries were for naught.
A smile suddenly spread across Logan’s face as he looked alternately at the red-haired man and woman running wild on the castle wall as if they were in their own world.
‘you can do it!’
Eilen strengthened her will as she looked at the castle wall in front of her.
What I’ve been practicing so hard on the cliff for the past few months is the damn siege training.
Although there were safety measures taken by lords and knights, such as Prince Logan, the height itself was higher than this castle wall.
In addition, unlike the cliff where it was difficult to find a place to stand, dirt was sprouting like footstools from all over the castle walls.
With his particularly sensitive senses, Eilen was able to tell that the small anomaly was the work of a person wearing soldier armor standing near Logan.
‘Wizard. Perhaps…’
The only person who could provide this kind of help from a distance where even arrows couldn’t easily reach was the rugged middle-aged wizard known as the head of the Magic Tower.
Perhaps the reason Prince Logan or the lord did not take the lead was to protect that wizard.
But right now was not the time to worry about such trivial matters.
‘Be sure to give credit!’
Of all the MacLine knights here, the one who is most thirsty for a major is probably himself.
It was an opportunity to shed the gender tag that had been attached to her for a long time and to be recognized as a knight.
Eilen gritted his teeth and jumped onto the castle wall before anyone else.
She reached the top of the castle wall in an instant with just a few steps and jumps, but what greeted her was the thunderbolts of hot oil rained down by the enemy soldiers.
‘Sigh!’
I expected an attack, so I barely managed to change direction to avoid the oil, and this time I saw a knight swinging a sword right in front of me.
A situation where you jump into the air to get over the castle wall.
A sword falling over one’s head in a situation where there is no support.
Fortunately, I have experienced many situations like this in training.
“bout!”
With a burst of energy, Eilen’s body struck once more as if it had a foothold in the air, turned and rose up.
“Huh?!”
The enemy knight’s surprised voice leaked out through his helmet, and Eilen fell behind him as if performing acrobatics.
However, the landing was not good due to excessive mid-air movements.
Wow.
“Ugh!”
Her long hair fluttered in the wind as her helmet was blown away by the enemy’s sword that swung in the gap.
And that created a golden opportunity.
“female?!”
The moment the stupid idiot’s sword stops.
Her sword cut off her enemy’s throat.
Sigh.
“Ouch. Such a piece of shit…”
Blood gushing out.
The curse-filled words and bloodshot eyes were clearly engraved in her eyes.
Funny enough, it was only at that moment that Eilen realized that he was standing on a real battlefield.
Crack.
A shaking heart and a momentary feeling of fear creeping into your chest.
Eilen unconsciously swung the knife to suppress those feelings.
A knife being swung at random.
Fortunately, there were only enemy soldiers around.
Sigh!
“Ugh!”
In an instant, a clearing was created around the castle wall she was standing on, and fellow knights stepped into it one after another.
“It was great!”
The person who passes by her with a short exclamation is the intermediate knight Rekton.
He was the representative person within the knights who looked upon her with special regard.
– I recognize the grit, but the actual battle is different. The woman… is Confucius’ fiancé, so shouldn’t we protect her?
After today, I don’t think I’ll ever hear anything like that again.
That one thought brought Eilen’s spirit back from the point of panic.
“Huh…”
She let out a long sigh and her eyes quickly regained their light.
‘I can do it.’
The moment her emerald eyes regained their fighting spirit, her sword began to sweep away all the enemies around her more violently and harshly than during training.
Ugh.
Ronian grinned as he looked at the light orange force emanating from his sword.
The strength I gained over the wall just before competing.
– Since you are the owner’s younger brother, I tried my best. It’s not as good as the owner’s work, but with my skill and the material being made entirely of mithril, it’s better than most low-level artifacts.
The moment has come for his favorite sword, Mane, which imitates his brother’s favorite sword, Lux, to show off its value.
‘Now I’m one step ahead.’
At first, I was able to relieve the pressure from Victor, who I thought was only a good swordsman friend.
My heart filled with confidence as I felt that all the hard work I had done so far was paying off.
So he was able to rush towards the wall without hesitation.
“Oh no, little Confucius…”
Ronian, who soared faster than the knight who started one step ahead, dodged two swords that fell from above aimed at him and landed right on the castle wall.
and.
‘Splitting the waves.’
Wow.
Four orange waves that started from his sword blew away the two knights blocking his path without a trace.
“come!”
Still a little smaller than an average adult.
However, the momentum Ronian showed at this moment was enough to attract the attention of everyone around him.
“That guy…!”
It was too much.
I don’t know when I became an intermediate level, but it was amazing that my level had risen so quickly, but it was too much to go crazy like that.
But thanks to that, the opportunity I thought of came to me more quickly.
Two senior knights flocked towards Ronian, and one moved towards the knights who had joined Eilen.
Their locations are at the extreme ends of the castle wall.
Thanks to this, among those currently guarding the center, there were no superiors.
The moment I confirmed it, Logan jumped out. My father also started rushing towards the wall.
‘A little faster. more!’
Using the power of the Wind God’s boots and the ghost’s shadow to the fullest, he arrived at the castle wall in a month and flew over the castle wall in just two leaps.
A knight of intermediate level or lower cannot block this movement.
Sigh.
Logan landed on the castle wall like the wind and instantly destroyed the supply and demand of two enemy knights.
Logan was anxious.
The operation was successful, but that was because the bait was his younger brother.
He is trying to raise his momentum to the fullest to attract the attention of his enemies.
“I am Padrick McLane!”
The voice of a person who was even more anxious came from not far away, drawing the attention of the enemies.
My father’s shout was enough to attract all attention on the castle wall, and the enemy’s senior knights who were targeting Eilen and Ronian suddenly changed their course and flocked to the center.
Two of them were surprised by the vivid force blade that rose 2 meters above Padric’s sword, and were busy retreating with blue faces in the one-sided attack that soon followed.
A senior knight running from the other side was also not in a good situation.
Ugh.
‘Split the earth!’
The huge golden sword that shot out from Logan’s sword cut down the charging guy and the surrounding troops.
Ugh.
If it had been swung vertically, it would have been an overwhelming blow that would have cut down even the castle wall.
In an instant, the 20m space in front of Logan was filled with corpses that had collapsed into pieces.
And at that moment, Tomodo Castle’s morale hit a complete low.
