The Count’s Youngest Son Is A Player - Chapter 258
Episode 258
Quagwagwang!
In the middle of both camps.
The place that should have been the center of the troop clash was in shambles as a small number of superhumans clashed.
“Don’t overdo it! “We are going to take advantage of our numerical superiority and chip away at it step by step!”
While the alliance side took advantage of the masters over 20 and fought leisurely.
“We have the upper hand when it comes to individual skills! “Concentrate your best efforts and deal with them one by one!”
Marquis McNeil’s side launched a bold attack to somehow reduce the number of masters in the alliance.
Currently, the total number of Masters on the Alliance side in the central battlefield is nineteen.
This number excludes the superhumans who retired from the Battle of the Knights and those who were absent to command the prince’s guard troops.
On the other hand, the number of superhumans in the three princes army is twelve.
Three masters from the Marquis and two from the Central Army’s Guard Knights.
The remaining seven were Imperial Hounds and Masters dispatched from the Empire.
“die! Dog of the Empire!”
“The kingdom’s residents are struggling!”
Nevertheless, the confrontation was more tense than expected.
‘The Empire is definitely ahead of those who have just become superhumans.’
The Imperial Master who activated the Emperor’s Seal was powerful enough to push the two Alliance Masters.
Of course, it was only a confrontation that occurred because the core forces of both sides had not yet participated in the battle.
“I’m sure if we had tied, we would have lost. “It’s like a dirty trick!”
Marquis Fidel de Greer gritted his teeth as he looked at the Master on the Third Prince’s side who had activated the tattoo.
He was a marquis whose territory was almost overthrown not long ago thanks to an imperial conspiracy.
Thanks to the incident that occurred on the Marquis’ birthday, the strength of the knights in the territory was drastically reduced and a significant number of blood relatives lost their lives.
It was natural for the Marquis to be shocked just by looking at the tattoo.
“I understand the Marquis’s feelings. “But my eyes see something else.”
On the contrary, the swordsman’s expression looked happy.
“Despite the imperialist’s tricks, aren’t our juniors responding very well? “The future of our kingdom is so bright!”
While most of the knights of the Empire and Marquis were at least 40 years old and had white beards.
If you look at the union’s masters, they were mainly in their 20s and 30s.
Among them, two stand out the most.
It was Dalton, the grandson of the Sword Duke, and Ken, the daughter of the Marquis of Greer.
This is because both of them have reached the level of masters even though they are still teenagers, and are demonstrating excellent skills that are not inferior to other masters.
“That’s right. “They will lead the future of the kingdom.”
Marquis Greer, who had Ken in his eyes, had a smile on his face as if he had never been angry.
“The Count must also be very reassuring. “All three brothers have grown up to be great people who will lead the kingdom.”
“Hehehe. That’s right. “They are too many children.”
Even the bear-like Count Melvin seemed unable to hide his laughter when praising his child.
‘This is so. ‘Embarrassing to the listener.’
While the three heads of the family were talking back and forth, Raoul was taking a breather behind them.
It was necessary to recover from the fatigue of Regnator’s awakening, and it was also necessary to give other masters a chance to be active.
Even if this war ended, peace would not immediately come to the continent.
‘As long as we don’t know how the empire will emerge, they need to grow further.’
Raoul’s role was fully completed by developing the subordinates of the First Knights into masters through the connect system.
From now on, they would have to raise their level through actual combat and training.
At that time, a powerful energy was felt from the enemy knights across the battlefield.
‘Are you finally coming forward?’
Just as the family heads here were waiting, the marquis and the truly powerful people were watching the situation.
If you start to lose your balance, you may be unable to control it, so you must move carefully.
However, the three princes did not have much time to waste.
This is because the battle between both wings, excluding the center, was progressing with the Union’s unilateral superiority.
If both wings collapse, even the elite troops in the center will not be able to withstand it.
Slurp.
The family heads drew their respective weapons.
They also sensed the movement of the enemy camp.
“let’s go. “We can’t just leave it to our juniors.”
The heads of the four great samurai families finally entered the battlefield.
* * *
‘…Swordsmith!’
Grumbling.
Marquis McNeil grasped the handle of his ax tightly.
A huge wall that made him second in command for decades.
Wouldn’t it be better if we had a real fight and lost?
Just because of the difference in level and background performance, he would have to suffer as second-in-command forever.
This is because, unless something special happened, the head of the duchy and the marquis would never compete directly.
And finally today.
The opportunity has come to overturn the erroneous evaluations made so far.
Since they encounter enemies on the battlefield, only if one of them breaks, will the chain of this long evil relationship be broken.
“Marquis, attack! “I will take away your false name today!”
Ride, ride, ride.
Marquis McNeil charged towards the swordsman with his two-handed axe.
But that seemed to be the Marquis’s own opinion.
The swordsman glanced at the marquis, who was charging at him like a wild boar, with indifferent eyes, and then took a long stride towards the other person.
‘Are you going to ignore me? ‘Arrogant bastard!’
“Kaaah!”
The moment the Marquis shouted and was about to throw his ax at the swordsman.
Easy profit! Shoo shoo shoo.
A sharp auric meteor flew towards the Marquis’ side.
“Tch!”
Empty! Teodeodeodeong!
The Marquis turned the blade of his ax and deflected a shower of fierce meteors.
“Who dares!”
“dare? That’s funny. “You dirty traitor!”
Count Hudson de Randall, burning with revenge, unleashed his signature weapon ‘Shooting Star’ and began engaging the Marquis.
“…Hoo. You came right to me. Indeed, the reputation of being the best sword in the kingdom was not false.”
A man dressed as a commander wearing a hooded cape.
At first glance, he looked like an ordinary Marquis officer, but the swordsman could feel it.
The deep, dark power hidden within.
“We met once before. Although decades ago. Although it was before I reached that level yet. “I could never forget that dirty and unpleasant feeling.”
Zeng.
The invisible swordsman’s mana blade collided with something and disappeared in the air.
Blah blah blah. Pubububung!
In the middle of the swordsman and the man, invisible energies collided and exploded, and several of the Marquis’ knights, who had been unluckily caught up, were broken into pieces and fell to the floor without knowing what was going on.
“…A guy who is as good as the Imperial Demon Commander is a bit odd. “Did you think I wouldn’t notice if I disguised myself like a rat?”
The swordsman scolded him, but the man just shrugged his shoulders.
“It’s a shame. “I was planning on wiping them out without anyone noticing.”
At the same time, the man lightly licks his fist with his tongue.
He is Clinid Ramir, one of the five demon generals of the Empire.
He was the Emperor’s confidant and the Empire’s highest commander.
That he is here.
‘The empire has come with a purpose.’
Even if the marquis had won the battle, it might have ended up in the hands of the ruler.
In fact, the Marquis didn’t seem to even notice the existence of the magician.
“Anyway, it’s surprising. Even though it is a kingdom of knights, I never thought there would be so many people who discovered my identity. “Even that foxy marquis didn’t notice.”
Before I knew it, two people were standing behind the swordsmith.
No, they were also targeting someone like Geomgong from the beginning.
“…I’ll take care of this. “The Count and Viscount will ask others to help.”
The swordsman said without even looking back.
Because I already knew who they were.
“Of course.”
“All right.”
Count Melvin and Raoul turned and headed toward the battlefield.
The reason he accepted the swordsman’s request even though the magician was right in front of him was probably because he had so much faith in the swordsman.
“Cluck cluck. Even after looking at them, do you think you can win this war?”
When the swordsman, who had become more at ease, asked the question, Magistrate Ramir grinned.
“It doesn’t matter to me. But since we’ve already gone so far, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to take home a trophy.”
While doing so, he pretended to slit the swordsman’s neck with his finger.
“surely. It looks like the empire isn’t what it used to be. “If the magician’s level is only this high, there’s nothing to worry about.”
“What…?”
“Compared to the magician I met before, it’s really… the same level, so I’m embarrassed to even say it. “The emperor must be worried too.”
Grumbling.
Demon Lord Lamir’s body was engulfed in black flames.
An incredibly creepy aura spread out, causing the nearby knights to unconsciously step back with pale complexions.
“gaffer. “You will have to take responsibility for your words.”
A powerful blow comparable to that of a magic cannon flew out from the tightly clenched fist of Demon Lord Lamir.
Empty!
However, the swordsman, who deflected the blow with intangible energy without even lifting a hand, said with a chuckle.
“Go for it, kid.”
* * *
‘These cockroaches and such.’
Raoul frowned and walked among the marquis’ knights.
There was another reason why our masters could not easily subdue their enemies.
These are the wizards belonging to the Imperial Hound.
Wizards of the 5th and 6th circles were not enough to inflict direct damage on the masters.
But it was enough to impede movement and distract one’s nerves.
Additionally, as the battle intensified, ‘violents’ appeared from all over and harassed our troops.
bang! Pubbung!
At least the knight-level thugs had enough firepower to ignore the power armor force field, and no matter how master they were, they couldn’t be stopped without using aurors.
‘But that doesn’t stop here.’
Clap la la rock.
Raoul, who dug into the enemy knights’ ranks, summoned an army of weapons.
“Stop it!”
Even the marquis’ knights and horsemen rushed to stop Raoul.
Suck! Grumble! Wow.
Weapons imbued with aura tore through the knights, the aura of brilliance burned the horsemen, and telekinesis tore apart the limbs of the wizards.
At least in terms of his ability to deal with many people, no one on the continent can match Raoul.
Quagwagwang!
“damn!”
And in the duel between the Marquis MacNeill and Count Randall, the Marquis MacNeill emerged victorious.
Although he had reached the end of the Master Intermediate level and was called a PvP specialist, Count Randall…
‘It’s like a damn tattoo!’
It seemed like it would be difficult to deal with the Marquis McNeil, who was at the advanced level of Master and even had activated modified tattoos.
While Count Randall, who suffered internal injuries, was struggling to retreat, swallowing the blood flowing back, Marquis McNeil fiercely rushed forward to finish him off.
“What kind of face did the loser come back with? If you’re lucky enough to escape, you’ll end up stuck in some corner of the countryside and survive! “Get lost!”
Whoa!
Like a giant swinging an axe, an enormous Auror blade fell aimed at Count Randall.
Quagwang!
“…under. What is this again? okay. You were there too. I was already planning on slitting his throat myself, but it worked out! “Pay for your sins for daring to ruin the Great Precepts!”
The Marquis’ forearm, overheated by the aura, swelled, and the huge two-handed ax fell at incredible speed.
but.
bang.
“…Stop it?”
A little while ago I thought it was just a coincidence, but this time it hit me seriously.
Nevertheless, the opponent was not only able to block his ax, but also bounced it away…
“It’s a shame. What do you do if you have great skills? As I grew older, I became senile. “I will make you regret daring to aim your weapon at the kingdom, Marquis!”
Phew!
Yellow aura stretched out endlessly from the large two-handed greatsword.
When the height exceeded 3m and 5m and reached 10m, the surrounding masters were shocked and took refuge in all directions.
‘What is this!’
The marquis’ aura, which was about 5 meters tall, looked shabby.
“Just try to stop it!”
Oooooh!
The auror blade that rose like a tower collapsed and turned into the shape of a bear’s paw.
Five sharp claws tore through the air and came down towards the Marquis, who hurriedly struck the forepaw with his axe.
Quagwagwang!
The ax blade was shattered by the tremendous force, and the Marquis was crushed by the auror.
“Kaaaaaaah!”
Of course, the Marquis was not going to be destroyed in one hit.
However, his tattered armor and bloody sputum gave away his condition.
“Now is the beginning.”
When Melvin de Ashton, head of the Ashton family, raised his sword, five Auror pillars rose up.
Marquis Clifford de MacNeill, who dreamed of becoming king himself.
A dark shadow fell on his face.
Kwagwagwagwagwang!
The Prince’s War that shook the Kingdom of Leuven finally came to an end.
