131 I must live as an arrogant witch to protect myself
It is thin, shiny white hair. It felt like a silk thread.
Rudy struggled to remove the thread, but it clung to it as soon as it touched it. oh sh*t It’s full of water and you can’t breathe.
A long white thread wraps around your eyes. Like a silkworm inside a cocoon, Rudy’s whole body was wrapped in white thread in an instant.
I tried to use the magic inside my body, but it didn’t work. It felt like her white hair was sucking her mana.
The secret of birth, the dragon, the thin light floating in the sky, and the white hair.
‘No way, is this the witch’s work? If it’s that girl who called me, isn’t it me who should get angry and threaten to kill her?’
By the time I came here, work was finally in my hands. I got a stable job and began to gain recognition from my boss.
I thought that a happy future was guaranteed now that I was tied up with the woman I liked.
He endured all the difficult situations and managed to hold happiness in his hands, but the culprit who ruined it all is aiming for his life?
The anger he had been suppressing so far surged up to no one.
What the hell did he do to be dragged from a peaceful life and thrown into this world? I was angry at the unreasonableness of this world, wondering why it had to be me to suffer that kind of thing.
Soft silky hair covers the eyes and nose and creeps into the mouth. I was getting more and more out of breath.
Okay, kill me if you want to kill me. Instead, I won’t forgive you either. Even if I die, I will never take revenge. No matter what happens, I will definitely take revenge. I will revive ten times and a hundred times, and I will definitely do the same for you. I will take you out of the world you love and throw me in a strange and desolate place.
The moment I thought that, something exploded inside my body.
Light emanates from the body.
The white hair that was wrapped around his body broke in strands with a crunching sound.
At the same time as the white thread was ripped from her body, a light that did not belong to Rudy enveloped her entire body.
It is not a feeling unique to the phoenix. It seemed that all the demonic creatures around him came rushing in. The anger and confusion felt by the demonic creatures seemed to be graspable.
Something like a soft wave came into my body and pat-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap It seems that phoenixes and mice have entered the body.
Rudy was submerged up to his face in the water, then raised his upper body as if he were bouncing. Water droplets splashed in all directions.

Damn, maybe I stopped breathing for a while.
Water gushed out of his mouth and nose like a fountain.
Cough Cough Cough, I threw my arms over the edge of the bathtub and coughed frantically.
I felt the phoenix and mice that had entered my body continue to knock on my insides. Maybe they are draining the water out.
Oh, I almost died. The moment I was relieved, my body drooped.
The voice of an aide was heard outside the tent.
“Your Majesty, are you all right? I heard you coughing hard.”
Rudy cleared his voice and calmly shouted outside.
“Oh, it’s okay. I’ll be alone for a while, so go away.”
I can’t show you like this. With war ahead, we shouldn’t make the soldiers feel anxious.
“…yes. I’ll be nearby. Call me if you have anything.”
The aide hesitated for a moment as if worried, but then left in front of the tent.
‘Damn it.’
Rudy turned over. My throat hurts from coughing too much. As I took a deep breath, I felt barely alive.
“Perhaps witches participated in this war.”
As Rudy muttered, the faces of two phoenixes suddenly appeared in front of him. I looked at Rudy’s face with round eyes and tilted my head.
Rudy smiled bitterly. The phoenix seems strange to Rudy’s words.
However, the time when the war started, and the sudden occurrence of what seemed to be witches’ actions in succession also make sense if you think that witches are intervening in this war.
“Well, anyway, since I was looking for it from here, I’d rather welcome it if it came from the other side.”
Yes, I would like to meet you sometime. I need to hear why he is trying to kill him, whether she was the one who brought him into this world, and if so, why.
If you babble about summoning a hero, I will really kill you. No, even if it’s not like that, I think I’ll kill it.
The male phoenix quietly put his head on Rudy’s chest. It was as if he was saying he was sorry for not being able to protect him.
“The other side must have tried to keep you guys from noticing. It’s okay. Besides, everyone tried to save me. Thank you. I survived thanks to you.”
All of a sudden, the demonic creatures scattered light all around them and were looking into Rudy’s face.
Rudy smiled at the demon creature.
All of the monsters seemed relieved, but I could see that anger was lurking on the other side of their hearts. Maybe even more than Rudy.
But suddenly I thought it was strange.
The crow, the witch’s errand boy, didn’t seem hostile when he first saw him. It was flying towards him as if it were a pleasure to welcome him.
So was the dragon. There was no antagonism or intent to offend.
But why is it that only witches want to kill him?
***
‘It was cut off.’
The string of light that had been pulled tight just a moment ago had completely disappeared. All of the strength in my body went out in an instant. The Witch of the West collapsed on the floor as if toppling over.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, I’m short of breath.
‘It’s not the work of demons. I can’t believe this feeling bounced off my own strength.’
I didn’t think I could kill the emperor. Those around you will help, so you can’t kill him now. I just tried to buy some time and put a mark on the man.
You should prepare before meeting him. As if weaving a dense net, each step he takes must be carefully entangled so that he can be separated from the demonic creature when he meets him in person.
After separating the two like that, he thought that he would be able to finally extract the magic of the progenitor from his body.
However, if you have already developed this level of strength, it may be difficult.
The Witch of the West realized her hands were shaking and clenched her fists. The power didn’t go well.
“…”
scary. scary. It’s so scary. I was afraid to meet the man. How the hell does the Emperor of the Empire grow in power so quickly? What kind of monster did he bring into this world?
The Witch of the West crouched down and covered her mouth with both hands.
Crying should not leak out. No one should be aware that they are scared. Then people immediately threaten her.
This world is full of dangerous things, and you can protect yourself only by living as an arrogant and fearless witch.
‘are you okay. you can do it. You will see that person again. I can definitely call him.’
Tears flowed down my fingers.
I thought it was successful, but where did I go wrong? I thought I had called him.
I thought that maybe he hadn’t awakened yet, so I waited.
He thought that one day, if he met the demon creatures he loved, he would surely wake up and be able to meet that person.
However, even when the emperor met the dragon, he did not recognize it. she failed Called the wrong person.
‘Fool, I’m a fool.’
Even if you retrieve all the magical powers of the emperor of the empire, it may not be enough to bring that person back.
Then how long should I wait? There is not even a demonic creature to add strength this time. Most of the demonic creatures left behind by the founder exhausted all their magic power for summoning and disappeared.
All of them gave up all their mana in the hope that one day they would be able to meet their masters again.
I couldn’t gather the same amount of mana again, but if I could, I didn’t know how long it would take. It could take thousands of years, thousands of years, maybe even ten thousand years. Or maybe not forever.
‘Can I stay sane until then? For more than a thousand years or more, we will continue clinging to uncertain hope…’
I’m going to go crazy Lonely, so lonely that you will surely go crazy.
‘I hate it now. I hate being alone. Please come back to me.’
As she sobbed, the crow tapped her cheek with her beak.
The existence that person left behind to protect her.
The Witch of the West reached out and took the crow into her arms.
‘Please don’t leave me alone. Please stay with me.’
The crow quietly rubbed its head on her cheek.
The next day, the West Witch rode a wagon and headed for the main base of the Kingdom of Crete, which was crossing the border of Dicoquaria.
***
Unlike the Empire, the Kingdom of Crete does not have a supply unit. Instead, merchants followed them, buying goods plundered by the soldiers and selling food and other necessary items.
Because of that, looting in the battlefield was essential for the Crete kingdom army.
Of course, as soon as the army of the Kingdom of Crete crossed the border, they headed for a nearby village to plunder.
As in all countries, most of the castles and remote villages do not have solid walls. There are no items of great value, but such villages have food and livestock. It was perfect for loot while passing by.
In addition, the first place they set as their destination was a place frequented by merchants.
It’s just a village, but many merchants come to buy herbs and hides from the mountains.
There were quite a few illegal items that were difficult to sell officially, so it was quite a busy place for a village.
The morale of the Crete kingdom army was sky-high.
But when the Crete kingdom army arrived, the village was clean. There is not one. There were always several old tents pitched outside the village, but there was not even a trace of them.
“What the hell is going on?”
“What happened?”
Of course, the Kingdom of Crete was taken aback. At first, I was wary of thinking it was a trap, but I quickly learned that it wasn’t.
Because the whole village was empty. Suddenly, it seemed that everyone had evaporated somewhere. Naturally, no food was stored in each household.
It is only because of this that even the food to be eaten in a few days is in short supply.
The Kingdom of Crete immediately headed for the next village. But so was the small town half a day away. There are no people.
This continued for a day, three days, ten days.
And finally, when most of the food each soldier had was running out, they arrived at the small village again.
It was a little different from other villages. It was cluttered, as if he hadn’t packed properly because he was leaving in too much of a hurry.
Carriages with missing wheels, several flour sacks that had been dropped on the floor, and houses with open doors.
This time, it seems that there is definitely something left.
Some units, in a hurry, broke the instructions and hurriedly entered the village.
Troops under the command of other nobles also run to the village, lest they fall behind that unit.
For a while, the troops who had passed through a ghost town with no enemies in sight had lost their discipline.
At that time, a loud shout was heard from somewhere. It was a surprise attack by the Watoring Army.
***
only three hundred.
This is the number of Watlingu troops who attacked the Grede Kingdom army of over 10,000 people.
It was all cavalry. One hundred of them are snipers with long stick-type magic tools. The rest were crossbow and polearm troops.
“Don’t try to hit it right. Shoot roughly! Shoot fast and float fast!”
When the captain shouted, the soldiers ha! shouted and ran.
A Watoringu soldier rode a horse and rode around the kingdom of Crete, aiming for only those who were dressed in fancy clothes, and began shooting crossbows and long spears. I’m only aiming for the general level, not the general soldier.
Long spears and crossbows were loaded with auxiliary soldiers attached to them. The auxiliary soldier waited and handed over a new barrel when an arrow or spear fell, and took advantage of the opportunity to pick up the fallen weapon again.
Magicians do not need such supplements. You just have to keep shooting. Naturally, the number of enemies defeated from this side was many times greater.
“Ahh!”
“It’s the magic weapon of the empire!”
“They have magic weapons!”
“damage!”
Amongst the army of the Kingdom of Crete, those who fled in the opposite direction appeared one after another.
While the kingdom of Crete was confused and wandering around, several captains fell in an instant.
A few units, which quickly settled the confusion among the Crete kingdom, came forward with large shields to deal with the enemy.
At that time, the captain of the Watoringu surprise army shouted.
“The game is over. Retreat! Retreat! Those who are late will be slapped by Boris-sama!”
The captain’s words were immediately spread to the surroundings by the other Watoringu soldiers.
“Retreat! Retreat!”
“Play is over. Go away!”
“Anyone who is late is going to give Boris a slap in the ass!”
Before a part of the Crete Kingdom army could even step out in front of them, the Watoringu raiders started to go back the way they came from, like dogs running away without a tail.
“The enemy is running away! Catch it!”
“Follow me!”
“Shoot! Shoot the arrow!”
Belatedly, the Crete army tried to attack them, but most of the kingdom’s army was infantry. Naturally, by the time they fired their arrows, Watoringu’s cavalry had already gone too far.
There were a few people from the kingdom of Crete who tried to chase after them on horseback, but when the sorcerer fired a long stick-type weapon aimlessly at the back, several people got hit and fell off the horse.
Unlike arrows and long spears, the magic weapons of the Empire do not even require proper aiming. Realizing that fact, no one in the Kingdom of Crete tried to pursue Watoringu soldiers anymore.
The result of an ambush by only three hundred people was disastrous. Let’s not even get food in the cold weather, the morale of the kingdom of Crete fell to the bottom.
It was around that time that William and the Witch of the West arrived at the headquarters.
