148 No ransom needed in this war
My heart was beating wildly.
The Witch of the West groped her neck. A subtle magical energy flows through the cold touch.
‘The slave necklace.’
In an instant, my mind turned black.
“It’s very embarrassing that the medicine is going around at a time like this. I thought the medicine would start running a little earlier than this. But it can’t be helped. Didn’t you know? I was in.”
The escort laughs. It was a soft voice.
You wouldn’t be able to imagine that the content was like that with just the voice. I could tell that the tone was conscious of crows.
“Hugh, since I can’t see, I can’t help it. If I could see, I would have known that the color of the meal was completely different.”
The Witch of the West shook her hand and stepped back. It’s like stepping on a stone. The body leaned over and fell over.
“Oops, witch, be careful.”
The escort grabbed the Witch of the West by the arm. I thought I should throw it away, but my body stiffened.
Slave necklaces have been experienced before. It was around the time when she came to this world and began to be called a saint.
The hot energy that passed through my throat, the pain that made my blood boil, and the memory of rolling on the floor with filth all came back to me.
scary. I was short of breath. Panting, the Witch of the West covered her mouth with both hands. I feel like throwing up.
The escort muttered in the Witch of the West’s ear in a friendly voice.
“I heard that this medicine prevents the witch’s magic from leaking out. I don’t know.”
‘I know this man.’
The Witch of the West’s heart was terrified.
Crows are different from demonic creatures.
The demonic creature created by the founder understands all human speech, but the crow is originally an animal. I couldn’t understand human speech.
The crow is merely responding to the Witch of the West’s emotions.
The crow sensitively recognized the emotions carried by magic and moved accordingly.
But that’s something most people don’t know about. Only a few witches who commanded animals knew about it.
The escort continued with a laughing voice.
“Our King paid a lot of money to buy medicine from witches and send them to us. You are not the only witch in this world. I can’t either.”
An escort put his hand into the armpit of the West Witch, who was stiff, and held it.
“It seems that the Witch of the West was quite hated by the other witches. Maybe they were jealous of your abilities. Witches are surprisingly narrow-minded.”
The escort put strength into the arm holding the witch.
“The witch’s ability can’t be used right now, so it’s dangerous here. Let’s go to a safe place. Oh, it’s better not to rebel and come quietly. I’m not an escort, I’m royalty. I have magical powers. The necklace you are wearing is my magic It works.”
A crow perched on her shoulder nudged her cheek with its beak.

Do you feel that something is strange?
I cried out in my heart for help, but the crow did not move.
Then, a scream was heard from somewhere. It was the voice of the soldiers.
“A mouse! A mouse made of light!”
“Aww, the bridge is broken!”
“What is the witch doing! My God, the crow is dying!”
I could feel the escort’s body moving hastily.
I don’t know what’s going on. Speaking of mice, I mean the Emperor’s.
Other times the crows would tell, but now I couldn’t see or feel anything.
From nob le mt l dot com
Disorganized footsteps were heard everywhere, screams and crows were heard here and there.
Caught by the guards, the Witch of the West struggled vainly with her hands into the air. She tried not to move, but her light body dragged on the ground and was easily grabbed by the man.
Then, the voice of the Crown Prince was heard. His voice is hoarse whether he is embarrassed or has run away.
“What the hell is a witch doing? Deal with those mice right now!”
The escort said soothingly.
“Your Highness! The medicine has just begun to circulate, so I can’t give orders to the crow right now. I’ll have to wait a few days.”
“What? Then what about war!”
The Crown Prince screamed.
“Your Highness, now is the time to evade. If we have the witch in our hands, we have another chance. The first priority is to train the witch to listen to us. We must hurry before the medicine runs out. His Majesty has already allowed us to do so. Please calm down.”
“But if that happens, what am I going to be! Could this be the second prince’s job! Or the third prince? Are you trying to overpower me and catch my father’s eyes! Whose side are you on!”
The two of them squabble and fight. The Witch of the West pushed the bodyguard with all her might to free herself from the gap.
At that moment, the crow sitting on my shoulder began to scream briefly. Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut. It’s like a warning.
Even though she doesn’t feel her instructions, is she trying to judge and help herself? After all, the eponymous bird is special.
It seems that the other crows that were nearby are flocking to it. The sound of flapping wings filled the air.
“What, what! Make it stop right now! Make it stop!”
I heard the prince’s voice. The crown prince’s screams follow. As if other people were being attacked as well, they clamored here and there.
The escort grabbed her arm roughly.
“Stop the crow, otherwise.”
The escort growled, then began to recite a spell.
The necklace gets hot.
It started, it started, it started, it started.
Horror filled my head.
***
Black crows fill the sky. Surely that must be the witch’s bird.
But why? The crow was not attacking the soldiers of Watoringu, but the army of the Kingdom of Crete.
‘Is it self-centered? What are the witches and those guys doing during the war?’
After doing crazy things like attacking in the middle of winter, now we fight among ourselves. I don’t know what else I want to do.
Rudy’s gaze turned to the castle wall.
‘Is that the crow’s leg that witches make?’
amazing. Like Ojakgyo, which is said to be made when a cowherd and a weaver girl meet, a crow was building a long bridge from the ground to the wall.
But it’s breaking down.
Rudy sent the mice of light to Watoringu’s main castle in advance.
From nob le mt l dot com
Did the mice know the situation on their own and ran, or did Boris detect and send them, they were already here.
The mice of light attacked the crows that made up the floor, and the bridges that had been firmly joined together were emptied in places.
Crete soldiers fell under the crow’s bridge, which had a hole like a rotten wooden bridge.
Besides, one, two, crows gradually get off the bridge and fly away. Thanks to this, the crow’s legs continued to have holes in them.
After leaving the bridge, the birds flew straight toward a point.
It is already a place full of crows.
As the crows gathered more and more, it seemed that only there was a black fog.
‘Is there a witch over there?’
obscured by birds, not visible
Rudy turned his horse’s head towards it. Imperial soldiers followed suit.
As I approached the Crow Mist, I heard a thin scream. it’s a woman’s
[stop! stop! stop! Please stop!]
it’s korean
The woman was screaming in the language of the Earth.
Something surged in my chest.
As soon as the reins were snatched, the black horse roared loudly and stamped its feet high in the air.
“let’s go!”
At Rudy’s command, the horse ran quickly. The distance narrowed in an instant.
Several Crete soldiers who noticed Rudi’s appearance belatedly were kicked by the black horse.
Ignoring the falling enemy soldiers with a scream, the black horse ran between the fleeing soldiers.
As I dived into the Crow Mist, I saw the birds attacking the two men relentlessly.
A silver-haired woman lies near the man. He was rolling on the floor and screaming.
A slave necklace hung around her neck.
‘It’s activating.’
Necklaces that are already working cannot be disarmed. I had no choice but to push the caster to release it.
Perhaps one of the two men the crow attacks is the caster.
As they approached the woman, Rudy jumped off his horse.
The soldiers near the two men swung their knives at Rudy, blocking the crow’s attack with one hand.
But Rudy couldn’t stop walking.
Rudy cut them down with a single sword.
The sniper started knocking down the enemy soldiers around Rudy one by one.
As the imperial army gathered around Rudy, the other two enemy soldiers who were attacked by crows began to run away. Enemy soldiers retreat like the ebb tide.
“Which one is the caster!”
It was the moment when Rudy shouted like a thunderbolt.
The bird that had been flying close to the witch and chirping at the other crows flew toward the man as if answering.
Straight up the man’s head.
“Is that him?”
Rudy immediately ran and cut off one of the caster’s arms. The caster lost his balance and stumbled and screamed.
Some crows flapped their wings loudly and gathered around Rudy. but don’t attack
The birds quickly circled around Rudy and started chirping. It was as if the crows were waiting for orders.
The crow that first reacted to Rudy’s words and informed him of the caster moved his long beak and flew up to his head.
Magical power is transmitted through the contact area. It felt a little different from the demonic creature, but it was almost the same as Rudy’s magic.
Rudy raised the knife again.
The crows that were attacking the men fell from the two of them. It flies around Rudy and the men, flapping its wings.
Another man, who was avoiding the crow by curling up, tried to crawl away.
He might be the commander-in-chief of the Crete Army, seeing as he is well dressed.
Rudy changed the direction of the knife and held it upside down.
He flew up to the commander-in-chief, lowered the blade, and lowered it to the floor holding the handle.
From nob le mt l dot com
Don’t kill There was a possibility that the caster could have been this man.
The knife stabbed the man in the thigh and lodged itself in the floor.
The sword pierced the commander’s flesh and pierced it at once, breaking his bones. The feeling of breaking something hard came through my hand.
Rudy’s sword is not thin and thin. Rather, it was a thick sword of the type that struck and struck the opponent’s weapon.
It hurts when you poke it. Of course, where is the sword that doesn’t hurt? It is much more painful than a thin sword for stabbing.
The commander-in-chief screamed with the sound of picking a pig.
While Rudy’s eyes were on the commander-in-chief, the caster turned around, wrapping his other hand around the severed arm.
I didn’t see it with my eyes, but I caught a glimpse of the image through the crow.
Indeed, did the witch see the world in this way?
Without looking at the caster, Rudy rotated his body and cut the knife.
Suddenly, with the feeling of cutting bones, the lower part of the caster’s knees disappeared.
The man stumbles forward.
Rudy stood tall in front of the man.
Raise the knife again.
“Speak, say what you want. Speak, please!”
The caster shouted as if screaming.
The witch’s screams continued to be heard behind Rudy’s back.
“Let the suffering of the necklace cease.”
“Well, will that save your life?”
Rudy looked down at the caster with an expressionless face.
“I have no intention of saving you. But I can kill you with a single knife without pain.”
“…”
No answer.
Then you just repeat the same action over and over again.
The moment Rudy was about to strike the knife, the man shouted with tears and runny nose.
“Ahhh! Oh, okay. Okay! Please stop! Stop it.”
The man sobbed and chanted incantations in the Cretan language.
Looking back, the light of magical power flowing through the necklace had disappeared.
But the witch’s screams did not stop. Maybe he’s in a state of confusion.
The witch sobbed in a thin voice, muttering words of nonsense, such as “No” or “Please”. The limp body trembles weakly.
Rudy came closer and sat down in front, but he didn’t seem to notice that either. After removing the necklace from the witch’s neck, Rudy stood in front of the caster again.
“…Uh…uh…Please, save me.”
Hearing the man crying and pleading, he cut his throat with a single knife as promised.
Seeing this, the commander-in-chief trembled and said,
“I, I, I am the crown prince of Crete!
Rudy, not listening to him, swung his sword.
No ransom is needed in this war.
The Empire does not forgive invaders.
Watoringu was a temporary but imperial land. They crossed over and attacked the castle, so this is no longer between Cania and Crete.
It became a war between the Empire and Crete.
When summer comes and the wheat harvest is over, the war will begin again.
This time in the land of Crete, not Dicoquaria.
