Chapter 406 Chapter 404 Small Messages

Colonel Abraham was an ordinary soldier until a few years ago.

But his life changed a lot because he got something.

It is a magic sword.

The name is Blood Life (Brute).

With a single blade black sword, the ability is simple body strengthening.

However, its simple effects were more powerful than other magic swords, which Abraham used to climb up to the Colonel.

In exchange, however, Abraham's character has changed to something difficult.

"Blood... not enough blood!

That's what Abraham shouted at the hut set up by the clan army.

Now that the Magic Sword was confiscated, Abraham was under house arrest.

The clan soldiers were creepy and didn't approach, but they were ordered to release Abraham from house arrest.

"Colonel Abraham. I gave you an order."

"Orders...? Give me back my magic sword first!!

That's how Abraham grabs the neck of a soldier in command and tightens it up.

The commander's soldier could not breathe and was still about to faint, but Abraham sees the blood brought in between and releases the soldier.

"Ooh......! My dearest friend...!

When Abraham took his blood and his life, he rubbed his cheeks against his sword and had a soft expression.

Distance from Abraham like that, the soldier who served as a preacher tells.

"Kh... lead the cavalry to the border with the Empire! Our princess will flee to the Empire! Stop it!

"Stop...? If I do, they'll all be dead?

"I don't care! You can kill him. Stop him!

"Fu, fufufu... princess blood... what kind of noble blood is that... interesting?"

Abraham stood up all the time.

And then...

"Let's go. The Cavalry is on its own."

So Abraham came out of the cabin, and ran across a nearby horse.

The Mariannes, who had left the Marquis de Persival, had led their people to the border of the Empire.

The expected pursuit from the Clan National Army remains elusive.

But...

"It's terrible....."

Marianne murmured so miserably.

On the escape route for exile, Marianne and the others were searching for a destroyed convoy.

The battle between Rafael and Erna made the hidden strongholds stand out.

"When the Guard is destroyed, one of our enemies will find out! If we keep going, it'll be the enemy's idea."

That's what the soldiers point out, but they're already here with the people.

After some thought, Marianne turned to Mia.

"Mia, what do you think?

The answer to Mia's question had been decided.

Enemy pursuers will come sooner or later.

They will catch up with us while protecting our people.

then.

I have no choice but to call for help.

"To the Imperial Army?

"I don't think the border Imperial Army is leaving its place. Let's rely on Prince Arnold."

"But it will take you a day to keep the horse running until the Marquis of Zweik, where His Highness is!

"Until then, I'll buy you time."

If we get there, we don't know if Al will move soon.

Still, that was the best thing I could do.

The most vigilant of the opponents is the rendezvous with the Imperial Army on the border.

If you're not going to let that happen, the enemy's movements are quite predictable.

However,

"I'm expecting an attack on the beacon. You'll need to let some of them go."

It's a dangerous mission.

Enemies are not fools.

After all, the destination is the Empire.

Then they will be sending people to the Empire in advance.

The current northern border is not perfect. A few people will get in without a problem.

There is no doubt that it will strike a fang at the message. That's why I can't send one.

"There are three horses that could be used for the message. Otherwise, I don't think I can stand it."

Well then, I'd like you to elect two. There's one person I'd like to recommend. "

"Recommended?

"He's a smart kid. They should be able to play their part."

That said, Mia sees a lot of people.

And then...

Ted, come here.

Mia called out Ted's name.

I looked at Marianne when I saw the boy coming out.

A boy who seemed to be a lot older than himself was not recognized as a preacher.

Mia-san! Whatever!

"All soldiers are too eye-catching for the enemy. Nobody thinks a kid sends a message."

"It makes sense. Children are lightweight, so they shoulder less of a burden on horses."

"But...."

"The problem is ability."

"I assure you."

With the endorsement of the soldiers, Marianne kept quiet.

Because it was no longer the case that you said you were a child or an adult.

"Sister Mia... what are you talking about?

"Ted... we're going to send a message to Prince Arnold. You're like a kid who can ride a horse and read a map."

"Hey... suddenly what? You mean... I'm the only one who can escape!?

"I'm not running away, I'm calling for help."

"Is there any guarantee that the Empire prince will help us!? If I go, you won't see me!

"Prince Arnold doesn't abandon desperate people. Especially for children."

"Don't treat me like a child! I can fight too! I'm fine!"

"I'll leave it to you because I treat you like an adult. Give me this bag when you see the prince. And you'll see."

So Mia pulls Ted's hand and takes him to the horse without saying anything.

A horse with minimal food.

Two soldiers were already ready.

"Go. You will meet the prince in my place. If Mia had asked for help, she would have moved."

"What if you don't move!? The royal family is above the nobles!? I can't trust you!

"Don't lick the Golden Eagle family."

"Prince Arnold is a dysfunctional member of the Imperial family!" I know they call me "The Rising Prince"!

"If you're not mad at me for making fun of me like that, I'm sure you can trust me. Isn't it?

"You're just weak!

"If you think so, we'll meet and see."

That's how Mia puts Ted on the horse.

I don't think I'm going to listen anymore, and Ted receives the map that the soldiers handed him violently.

"Promise me you won't be rude until help comes."

Depends on who you're dealing with.

Ted looks at me for not making a promise.

In the meantime, two soldiers started running horses.

Ted goes on.

Mia called out to Ted.

"Ted, don't forget to say thank you for your help!

"Absolutely...."

While feeling frustrated with the fluent Mia, Ted chased after the two men who ran forward, saying that they had already abandoned themselves.
