149 – 45. Climax of Tragedy (2)
The magic commander of the imperial army.
Geist, the current head of the imperial wizard corps, clicked his tongue as he watched the war unfold.
“I never thought he would be this annoying.”
It has already been 4 hours since we confirmed that Elijah’s magical power was neutralized and began the attack first.
The imperial army was unable to close the distance.
The sun has already set.
As it got dark, it became more difficult to advance, and the opponent had an advantage in going on a rampage.
‘Did you say Judas…? .’
Elijah’s guard knight.
He was single-handedly raiding the imperial army’s camp.
They blocked us from advancing, or cut off the supply routes to the rear at every moment.
It was difficult to even dare to follow because he was riding his deer all the time.
Even if Geist tried to respond with teleportation, it was not easy.
As soon as he appears, he quickly runs away.
It was difficult for him to be away for long just to catch Judas.
Geist was in charge of looking out over the entire mansion from the air and giving orders or delivering information.
Also, the enemy defending the mansion must be stopped with powerful magic from a distance so that the imperial army can quickly invade.
But let’s leave Judah alone. No matter how hard we try, the imperial army cannot advance because of Judah.
In the end, because of that one thing, the entire imperial army was caught, and four hours passed like that.
In fact, he alone dominates this battlefield.
‘He wasn’t that strong to begin with…. What happened?’
The imperial family also researched information about Judah quite thoroughly.
Although he was not a person who was often shown fighting to the outside world.
Nevertheless, it has become stronger than the expectations of military staff and operations personnel, including Geist.
Geist had to make a decision.
I am currently visiting the most powerful knight in the imperial army and making an offer.
“Captain of the Guard. “Let’s set some bait.”
*
-Boom!
A huge explosion sound.
It seems as if a star has fallen.
Gathers the attention of all nearby imperial troops.
Sand and grass rose up around the spot where it fell.
That spot was one of the imperial army’s makeshift campsites, and the person who fell was not a star.
“Enemy attack! Enemy attack!”
“Everyone, keep your distance while maintaining visibility! Maintain spacing! “Surround!”
“Inform nearby units! “Someone named Judas came here!”
The Ten Seals quickly took command.
Within a few hours of arrival, the imperial army suffered the same attack several times.
The other party’s strategy was truly shockingly fresh.
Aerial assault using the leap of the sacred moon deer.
After jumping high, it crashes like a comet at the target camp.
While confused by the unpredictable attack and rising dust, it cuts down the enemy and runs away leisurely.
However, as the same strategy was repeated, the imperial army developed its own countermeasures.
“Everyone, hold up your shields and stick to each other’s shoulders! “Stay back slowly until your vision stabilizes and remain alert!”
This is an operation that will cause confusion, so you don’t have to get caught up in the confusion.
The soldiers strengthened their posture amidst tension.
It seemed like an ivory light would flash and fly out of the dust at any moment.
I did not give in to fear.
No matter how you look at it, there is only one opponent.
It is impossible to overcome the systematic command of the majority.
It will be destroyed.
They thought so.
That moment.
– Get a card!
With the sound of armor being torn, someone fell.
“There it is! “It’s over there!”
A soldier shouted urgently, and immediately he noticed golden eyes approaching him.
Enemies that leave afterimages rush in in the darkness.
When I put my hand on the sword to react, the head had already fallen.
The torch falls along with her head.
The tent catches fire, and soon the entire campsite is on fire.
Judah indifferently walked through the burning camp and eliminated the enemies.
There were no idle thoughts in her head.
The anger that had calmed down was calm and sharp, but at the same time, it was obsessive and persistent.
‘Enemy discovery, approach, elimination. Discover, access, remove. Discover, access, remove….’
*
Judah cut his enemies again and again.
I just moved based on instinct.
If you see an enemy, attack them.
If you think you will win, fight, and if you think you will lose, you quit.
Once again, when you find the enemy, you fight again.
I repeated it without stopping for 4 hours.
That was all that was in my head.
There was no room for other thoughts.
There was so much to think about that my overloaded brain gave up on complex thinking.
I just threw away reason over sticky instinct.
The instinct to kill the enemy.
A more primal desire for destruction. Anger. Petulance.
My whole body was covered in blood.
An unpleasant smell seeps into the brain.
I didn’t care.
He wasn’t particularly intoxicated by this killing and fighting.
With emotionless eyes, performs like a machine.
Like a nutcracker cracking a nut.
Just kill and cut down enemies.
Yuel, a clever moon deer, noticed the change in his emotions.
After the battle, Judah only reacted emotionally when he rubbed his head and showed cuteness while moving.
He just smiled bitterly and patted it.
“I’m fine.”
He says that with an expression and voice that is not okay at all.
And when it comes time to fight again, he becomes as reckless as a moth to a flame.
Yuel watched him with anxious eyes and had no choice but to follow.
“Shall we rest for a bit?”
When Judah proposed, Yuel refused.
His physical strength was overflowing.
I was just worried that Judas would die like that.
“Thanks for following along.”
I only say that to Yuel.
Judah’s expression immediately darkens.
A large marching army came into the sight of Judah, who was looking for the next enemy.
A march that included many imperial knights and guards.
It seems like the opponent is trying to gather elites and break through.
Judas did not think deeply.
That is the enemy, and we have gathered the most dangerous people.
So we just fight.
Get on top of Yuel.
There is no need to say anything.
This has been repeated several times.
Yuel carries out his orders on his own.
Just as you received magic power from Yuel through the horn, you can now give magic power to Yuel in reverse.
The moon’s magic power was perfected and allowed Yuel to gain monstrous strength.
It flies with all its might with its bulging muscles.
The sun slowly sets and a deer crosses the dusky sky where the moon rises.
When the highest point was reached, Judas jumped.
The target is the largest enemy vanguard.
Lean the sword back.
The moment I hit the ground, I plan on cutting at least one more person.
The moon’s pupil shines ivory.
The sight of him falling was like a falling moon.
It falls faster and faster.
The wind blows so fiercely that it seems to rip my ears.
It was an instant for the ground to get closer.
When the enemy discovered you, it was already too late.
-Boom!
It crashed, crushing the rider.
A thick cloud of dust rises.
Look around quickly.
Blocked view.
Draw the number and arrangement of enemies seen from above.
The guards are at the forefront.
At the center is the Imperial Knights.
Composed of only combat troops without supply units.
The response is probably standard.
Surrounding from a distance….
“… !”
At that moment, a survival expert sent a warning.
Attacks were coming from all directions.
Judas reacted according to instinct.
I jumped high from my spot.
He was stabbed by about 10 swordsmen where he was.
The intersecting blades are like flowers.
However, they stop without stabbing each other, as if they expected to avoid them.
Still floating in the air.
Once again, warnings are pouring in from all directions.
A platinum knight flies beyond the thick dust.
Imperial Guard.
Judas sensed that he had been caught in a trap, but he did not care.
Even if he knew it was a trap, he would have rushed in.
If you can’t stop it or avoid it.
Wake up from the front.
He moves his sword into one of his hands and passes it behind his opposite shoulder.
Posture for a wide cut.
The guard’s spear approaches.
6 People in total.
The area covered by this technology is approximately 300 degrees forward.
There is nothing we can do about the one person in the back.
I leave it to luck.
The moment when the spear’s blade is close enough to be seen.
Cut the sword wide.
Ivory light draws a thin arc.
For a moment, the old moon appeared in that spot and then seemed to disappear.
Kang!
The five spears that blocked at the same time made a sound.
Judas landed safely on the ground.
For some reason, the rear was fine.
When I turned around, I saw that Yuel had hit the guard.
Yuel and the guards were rolling around on the floor.
The guard held his spear briefly and tried to stab Yuel, but Judah was faster.
I threw the throwing dagger and hit his exposed armpit, then quickly ran over and cut off his head.
Tap Yuel’s butt and send him away again.
“… !”
There was no time to catch my breath.
The Imperial Guard and Knights rushed in at once.
Narrowly dodge and run away.
It was a gesture close to acrobatics.
A tightrope walk that will lead you into the abyss if you slip.
Even though his life was at stake with the choices he made at every moment, he did not hesitate to fight back.
It was as if it didn’t matter even if he died.
“Wow….”
A knight whose head was cut falls down.
“Aaaaah!”
The knight whose eye was stabbed screamed.
“Kruk….”
A knight who gets hit on the chin by a shield faints.
The captain of the imperial guard was honestly amazed when he saw that.
“That’s amazing.”
Geist sneered next to me.
“Is it time to praise the enemy?”
“I admit it because I have the personality to admit it. “It makes you wonder why someone like that hasn’t distinguished himself before.”
“That’s because the wizard he serves is a bigger monster than me.”
That was correct.
If Elijah was of sound mind, she would have no reason to fight so fiercely.
They would all have turned to ashes in an instant.
“It’s unlikely, but we have to kill that monster and take the sun statue before it comes to its senses.”
“I know.”
The guard captain took out a large Zweihander.
“I’m slowly getting tired.”
Judah has been fighting non-stop since the beginning of the war.
Of course, he is also human, and his physical strength comes to its limits.
Movement noticeably slowed down.
A red line appears on his face.
Shallow stab wound.
Arms, shoulders, thighs.
I get cut and stabbed little by little.
The guard captain slowly approached there.
Geist also gave instructions to a member of the Imperial Magic Corps.
“Ready for power magic. He’s a smart guy, so he takes his time, waits until he sees the right time, and then pours it out. “With magic that doesn’t interfere with our allies’ vision.”
Geist looked down at the black amulet.
I told the few people I had hidden near the mansion to send a signal when they found the sun statue, but it is still quiet.
Originally, Geist tried to break into the mansion himself, but was blocked by Judas.
He felt that if he did not interfere, the damage to his allies would be severe, and if he did, he was wasting his own time.
A lot of time was delayed because of just one person.
“If we just kill that one guy, we’ll push ahead. Deal with it quickly. “Your Majesty is waiting.”
Many wizards prepared their magic at once, and the guard captain led the elite guards and walked toward Judas.
It was time to come to an end.
