Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 95

Episode 95

“Huh, this is it.”

A time when warm sunlight shines overhead.

Clayton burst into laughter as he was dumbfounded by the achievements he and his students had made.

The view below from the top of the castle wall.

The moat, more than 5 meters deep and wide, created overnight, was filled with lapping water.

If you fall into it while wearing heavy armor, no matter how much you are a knight, you won’t be able to walk out easily.

Although it was a one-off project and there was no need to take much into account, a waterway from a tributary of the Luther River to the moat was dug in just five or six hours, taking into account the height and geology of the area.

No matter how much experience you have accumulated.

Although he used magic stones generously and used magic and golems.

He also had no idea that the work would be completed this easily.

“Of course. I can do it, right?”

“….”

Of course, in return, all the disciples collapsed from exhaustion, and he himself felt like lying down right away, so saying it was easy would be nonsense.

But it was definitely easier than expected.

“Prince Logan. Still, this time it was a bit of an unreasonable suggestion. There are things that work and things that don’t work when people force themselves…”

“It’s done, right?”

“….”

If you work hard, you can do anything.

It was obvious that if I instilled this perception in my employer, things would get tiring in the future.

It is best to complete the construction exactly within the designated construction period. Neither sooner nor later is better.

Clayton, who was trying to make an excuse again, burst into laughter at the absurd thought that came to his mind.

’employer? construction?’

I realized that the direction of my thoughts naturally flowed like that of a worker.

“Ah, anyway. That’s why all of our Magic Tower power has deserted us. Wouldn’t this have been a waste of power in a situation where a battle is expected soon?”

“It doesn’t help much in combat anyway. Except for Clayton.”

“Uh…”

A painful, inexplicable blow pierced my heart.

Logan chuckled at that and offered him comfort, not comfort.

“Of course, this alone has helped tremendously. So, Clayton, you can rest now.”

“…thank you.”

“The battle will break out as early as today or tomorrow, but what can I do? If I’m tired, I should rest.”

“….”

What on earth do you mean?

Clayton, exhausted from all-night construction, can’t bear it anymore and starts to vent his emotions.

“But I would like to ask you one last question.”

“yes?”

“Isn’t there something left of the Collapse Scroll? With that and Clayton-sama’s magic…”

The voice gradually became quieter and contained unexpected and serious content.

It’s definitely possible, but…

“Do you really need to go that far?”

“This is the way it should be.”

At those words, Clayton saw Logan’s face again.

In fact, it was Logan who continued to watch the moat and waterway construction sites that continued all night and directed the supply of necessary personnel and materials.

Although there may be differences in fatigue, the fact that the young archduke was unable to sleep all night was the same.

Clayton looked at Logan with new eyes for a while and then slowly nodded.

“I will prepare.”

“Please. And what I said earlier was just a joke. Please get a really good rest.”

You never know when you might need it.

Logan swallowed a bitter word, looked at Clayton as he turned around for a moment, and then moved his heavy gaze outside the castle.

‘You kill timing once.’

Logan gritted his teeth as he watched the army appear over the horizon as if he had been waiting for it.

“It’s the enemy! All armies ready for battle!”

The soldiers who were taking a nap out of tension and the knights who were sharpening their swords in preparation for the battle that could unfold at any moment all rushed out of the barracks.

McLane’s army quickly began to reorganize its lines.

* * *

“Huh? Was there a moat in Tomodo Castle?”

Before we could even set up camp because we were rushing like the wind.

Looking at Tomodo’s changed appearance, Roger Bipros asked his subordinate as if he were dumbfounded.

“…there was none.”

“You made something like that in one day… I guess you have some talent. If so, what’s the point? Aslan!”

“Yes, my lord.”

Aslan, the knight of speed and leader of the knights of Bipros, immediately stepped forward and answered.

“What is the enemy’s strength?”

“As confirmed by our fleeing troops, there are less than 150 knights and less than 2,500 troops.”

“What are the variables?”

“It seems that the lord is a top-class knight. And there are about ten people who appear to be earth wizards.”

“Ha… you prepared secret weapons for this topic, right? Hehe. So what are the expected results?”

“It’s a landslide victory for us.”

There was no delay in Aslan’s response.

And Roger Wipros also agreed with that opinion.

“Okay. I’ve struggled so much. What are the variables other than Rentor’s power?”

“The harvest season has passed and most of the food has been sent to the main castle, so there is not enough food in the castle to feed the nearly 3,000 troops. If we just wait, they will have no choice but to come out. Unless they want to starve to death.”

Roger Bipros’s smile grew even deeper at the adjutant’s answer.

“Good. It’s a war that can be won over time. But is there a need to extend the orders of the arrogant bastards who invaded my territory by a few more days?”

“…Do as you wish.”

Soon after, the Bipros army, which had reorganized its formation, began to move immediately.

* * *

“There are a little over 300 knights and well over 5,000 soldiers. And those guys you see occasionally look like wizards, right?”

“…Judging by the storm symbol on their sky blue robes, they look like wizards from the Tower of Wind. I heard that Roger Viphros and his son are from there.”

As Logan added to his father’s analysis, the complexions of everyone around him darkened.

Even with simple calculations, the difference in troops is almost double.

And the strength of the Bypros army was not simply the number of troops.

“That silver-haired man is probably the Knight of Moonlight you mentioned, and that red armor that looks like a monkey over there…” “

It’s probably Aslan Liar, the Knight of Speed. And Roger Viphros is also a wizard of the 5th Circle. Externally, he is 4. “It’s known as a circle, but you have to be careful.”

“Hmm…”

Two top knights and a 5th circle wizard.

Of course, if you look at McLane, his power was comparable.

Padric McLane, who is clearly a top-class knight, and Logan, who is a high-ranking knight, but shows strength and majesty comparable to that of a top-class knight.

And even Clayton from the Golem Tower.

‘But honestly, I’m a little anxious.’

Logan sighed quietly.

In short, my father has only just reached the level of the top knights of Bipros, who have been making a name for themselves for over a dozen years.

Regardless of his actual powerlessness, he remains at the upper level.

And Clayton, a 5th circle wizard who cannot utilize his greatest specialty in battle.

It was true that everything seemed a little lacking compared to the Bipros camp.

But it was something that could not be helped.

‘But I did everything I could. ‘Up to this point, I’ve followed the best option.’

What bothered me more than the difference in military strength was the fact that there was no sign, even though it was a normal time for ‘the news’ to arrive.

The best situation he could think of was for this battle to not take place at all.

But looking at the signs, it seemed like those expectations should be given up.

– This is a message to the scum who have invaded the land of the Lord, to whom they should be loyal, without even realizing it. You…

Roger Vipros’ voice, which rang throughout the battlefield through magic, was full of life from the beginning.

“Since when did they say they were Lords…”

Logan calmly shouted to those around him, listening to his father’s angry voice.

“Ready to fire!”

“preparation!”

The soldiers stationed between the railings on the castle wall simultaneously raised their repeating crossbows along with their spears.

Actually, it was a repeating crossbow that wasn’t much fun during the siege, but now the situation will be different as it is aimed downward from the top of the castle wall.

More than 2,000 repeating crossbows were aimed at the Bipros army.

– …Now I will ask for that crime.

“Aren’t we going to answer?”

“What are you doing? Relax. Leave me alone to talk.”

It was scary for Logan to give a cold answer to Heinkel’s question.

– I will uproot McLane! All troops charge!

With the voice of Roger Bipros, the Vipros army began to advance.

The first to charge were, of course, the knights.

The sight of about 300 horsemen charging at once, each with a burning rose pattern engraved on luxurious armor that brilliantly reflected the sun’s rays, was enough to put psychological pressure on them.

But as Logan stared at it, he felt something a little strange.

‘Just run? ‘Without a shield?’

If they had heard about the repeating crossbow, they should have been prepared for it, but they seemed unprepared.

“…Are you confident in your skills?”

Heinkel seemed to be having similar thoughts as he blurted out something as if he was dumbfounded.

“Even if I was confident, it would have been easier to prepare. That was just…”

As he spoke, Logan became convinced.

“They’re just belittling us. They’re saying they didn’t investigate. Or they heard it and ignored it.”

The relaxation felt in the posture of the riding knights.

And even though they started the battle, the knights showed their faces without lowering their helmet visors.

Those emotions were clearly visible in the sight of the Bipros Knights charging towards him.

In fact, they had heard about the repeating crossbow from a soldier who had run away, but all the soldier saw was it bouncing off the wall without much force, so they did not make any preparations.

That fact brought a smile to Logan’s face.

“Good…”

My worries about the future disappeared for this moment.

“It went really well.”

It was an opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the Bipros Knights.

It was luck brought about by an unexpected enemy.

The 1,500 cavalry following closely behind them paid no attention.

“Aim only for the knight! Make sure to show it a hot taste!”

“Yes!”

As soon as Logan finished speaking, the enemy knights came within range of the crossbow.

And,

“Shoot!”

Pabababak.

The quarrels fired with the command became rain of death. The silver knights were covered in pitch black.

Even from a distance, the enemies’ eyes could be clearly seen widening in shock.

Ta-da-da-da-dang!

“Ugh!”

“What are you doing!”

“Stop!”

Unfortunately, the ones who were at the forefront did not have much fun.

Although many were wounded, they seemed to have avoided fatal wounds by repelling most of the attacks with their hastily raised force and swung swords.

However, the common knights following from behind were different.

“Ahh!”

“Ahh!”

“What is this! ”

Burbubbbuk.

At the first shot, as many as thirty knights all fell off their horses and rolled around on the ground.

Those who did scream were in good condition.

Many of them were unable to even scream and lost their lives due to the fatal attack that pierced their head, eyes, and heart all at once. .

‘good!’

Logan, with a grim smile like a grim reaper, shouted loudly once again.

“Concentrate on the back of the knights!”

With those words, Quarrel filled the sky once again and rained down one after another.

“

Ahhhh!

” Ugh!”

When the screams of the Bipros knights rang out one after another.

A silver curtain rose into the air at the very front.

“The knights spread out left and right! Aim for the other wall!”

The face shouting at the center was very familiar to Logan.

‘Planz.’

Moonlight Knight Planz A silver force blade like a whip emitted from the sword he raised, forming a defensive shield in front. Then, in an instant, a significant number of Quarrels were blocked by the veil and bounced away, but even that was

not perfect.

.’

Not only was there a limit to the range, but that whip-like force blade would have been a

great waste of force. ‘Now, use your strength, top knight.’

The battlefield was going much better than expected.

There were already more than 50 knights of Bipros lying on the ground.

“North and south walls! The knights are on the move! Catch up! “Keep shooting!”

Logan ordered while looking at the enemy troops dispersing, and McLane’s troops moved as planned in advance.

My father led some of the troops and headed to the northern wall, and some of the guards led by Heinkel, including Nadal, also led some of the troops. They raced towards the southern wall. However,

at the moment when the rain of arrows on the western wall weakened somewhat.

In front of their formation, a figure wearing red armor was seen soaring towards the wall.

Compared to his small body, he had unusually long arms compared to a human. A face like a monkey.

Although it was a first look, he was instantly recognizable thanks to his unique appearance.

Aslan Liar. Another top-class knight that Bipros had.

“Where!”

Logan ran toward the direction the guy was coming from.

“All of them.” I’ll cut you into pieces!”

Aslan let out the anger boiling in his chest.

The knights who charged in with great force saw ridiculous damage.

He was the one who snorted when he heard Maclaine talk about it being a new weapon and all.

– Arrows? Crossbow? Are you kidding me? If you’re going to get hurt with something like that, you shouldn’t be a knight.

Aslan worked hard with a complex about his appearance to get to the level he is today.

To him, the very fact that a soldier’s weapon that threatened a knight existed was nothing more than laughable nonsense.

In addition, the master also understood his confidence, and vice-captain Plantz also respected his decision.

However, this was the result.

However, Aslan was not a person who accepted responsibility himself. He was

a top level person who only trusted his own will and thoughts and rose to his current position. Knight.

That stubbornness also affected the bad side.

His judgment was right, and the enemy who used a cowardly weapon was wrong.

So, I will hold the enemy responsible.

He carried all his anger and threw himself away.

It was as if he had been smeared with mud. Smooth castle walls are no obstacle to him…

Slippery.

Quang!

“Huh. “Hehe. What a piece of

shit…” His face burned with anger and shame mixed together.

The castle wall, made of mud and oil, was much more slippery than he thought, and he barely managed to get his hand into the castle wall and ended up hanging in the middle.

Dozens of people appeared before his eyes. Quarrels from his feet rained down.

“Holy shit!” Damn

it.

Even if you do that, you can’t even be defeated by something like a crossbow.

Befitting his nickname as a knight of speed, Aslan struck down the arrows in an instant with just one hand, giving strength to his arm that had dug into the castle wall.

And then he soared upward again.

“Kill them all…”

The moment the scared face of the enemy soldier came into view.

A golden sword fell on top of his soaring head.

Wow!
