Chapter 408

Lange could have guessed.

I’ve seen all sorts of crazy cases on the battlefield, but this is one of them.

At first glance, I thought that a javelin with unusual power had pierced my head, but suddenly I was wearing a helmet and as soon as I reached the wall, I couldn’t keep up with my head enough to run up the wall diagonally as if I had a staircase, but the peak was next. .

“Ooh, the spell interference on the right wall has been weakened!”

“Pierce!!”

Hearing the shouts of the wizards, his body moved before he could judge. Lange shouted with strong conviction.

“You assholes!! It’s time to fuck!!”

This can be pierced unconditionally. The intuition built up on the battlefield so far cried out. When the battalion commander gave the order to go ahead, the battering rams, like the other soldiers, lost in disbelief at what they were seeing, reflexively started running.

A bombardment rained down on one side of the wall, but no one assumed that Eldmia might have been caught in it and killed. The brain gives up on following three unbelievable things. Instead of considering it a coincidence that Eldmia stopped interfering with the enemy’s spells as soon as she climbed the wall, they regarded it as his plan and believed that the human who planned it could not be caught in a foolish way and die.

And it was no different than Reynal, who was beaten up by Eldmia. He mounted his horse without hesitation when he saw that no check came until the moment the battering rams crossed half the battlefield.

“This is unconditionally pierced! 2nd Regiment ready to charge! Ready to charge!!”

He didn’t know Raynal’s reaction, but Ranze could see that the battlefield started to fluctuate without looking back.

Aside from the atmosphere and things like that, the ground was physically vibrating, so it was impossible not to know. She glanced at the battering ram that was coming close behind her, then jumped up and jumped on top of it, using a huge blunt weapon for support.

“Shit!”

“It’s still heavy and hard, but do you really have to do this!?”

There was a sound of pain at the landing, which was not considerate of the person who lifted and jumped, but Ranze did not care at all. On the contrary, I found it to be disrespectful. It wasn’t just getting drunk on the atmosphere and getting on the siege weight.

“Speak to those who are dissatisfied! From now on, as soon as the battering ram strikes, take it as a firm will to assume the position of the glorious vanguard...

”

“Fuck run!”

Anyway, you fucking ass puppies.

Ranje, who shook his head and burst out laughing, smiled cheerfully as he looked at the castle gate that was getting closer and the side door that still wouldn’t open.

“If you can’t hit the 2nd gate in one blow, take care of yourself!”

“Tell that to the magic tool attached to the battering ram!”

Using that cry as a signal, the 20 knights lifted the battering weights they were carrying on their shoulders at the same time. If Eldmia had seen it, they moved without any disturbance to the extent that they would have applauded, saying that there is no separate sword dance.

And the battering weight, which was swung like a clock pendulum drawing a large semicircle, scratched the floor, hit the secondary wooden gate, splashed fragments, and was soon blocked by the iron gate.

In order not to be able to withstand the explosion caused by the magic tool at the end of the battering ram and not fly back.

– Kwaaaaang!

Amidst the roaring sound, flames, and flying fragments of the gate, Ranze ran towards the tip of the battering ram without hesitation as soon as he confirmed that the gate made of iron cage was greatly bent and bent.

There was no time to care about the thick smoke and the hot heat rising from the battering ram. She took a big leap from the edge of the battering ram again, using her blunt weapon for support, and immediately knew who she was targeting. Other times, it would have taken me a while to figure out who was the strongest, but this time it wasn’t that difficult.

It was because the guy who was facing Eldmia while holding a huge rock that appeared to be a fragment of the castle wall was clearly the strongest.

“Long live the dog-like silver eagle brigade!!”

Her blunt weapon was swung over the head of a half-horned demon looking up with a gaze full of amazement and futility.

◈

Fuck God. Surprise is also fucking right.

As if fired from a cannon, the battering ram exploded, the gate was shattered, and frighteningly acrid smoke gushed out. Suddenly, Lange jumped out and wielded a blunt weapon, accurately striking half of the crown of his head.

The blunt weapon that the knight with a high-level aura threw away all his skills and wielded with all his might, was filthy fast, disappointing its huge size. Looking at it from the side, it’s about this, but there’s nothing to say about the person concerned.

Fear and confusion spread among the demon army at the same time as the body of the half body, which had replaced the place where the head had been, collapsed in vain with the result of raising eyebrows by itself. In addition, as the 20 knights who came over by battering ram began to organize the area, there were those who ran away with just a few knife cuts.

“Enemies in the outer castle are confirmed by base defense troops! The risk is low! Ordinary infantry can be deployed!”

“General infantry available! I’ll send you a signal!”

The knights who moved in perfect order among them were veterans of the front line. I don’t know what kind of fight they were fighting, but their actions seemed more like modern special forces than soldiers.

“Do you classify risk?”

I asked Ranze, who was walking with great dignity against the background of the rapidly clearing surroundings and the enemies on the exploding walls, and he nodded calmly and explained.

“The Demon King’s army is thorough in that respect. The gap between the attacking and defending troops that move their main force is quite large, so if they don’t inform in advance, the soldiers will die. Right now... Shit, flying dragons found! Flying dragons found! Twenty enemy planes! Take cover. do it!”

Ranze, who had been looking around indifferently but not relaxed, looked at the sky behind me and shouted. As they spread out in an instant, some of them between the buildings, some of them boldly lifted the corpses of dead enemies, admiring the vigilance.

The sight of the guys flying a little higher and gradually lowering their altitude seemed to have changed their plan and decided to target us after trying to hit the main unit.

“Sir Ega! We don’t have enough means to keep their flying dragons in check! Get back and take cover...” “Oh

, that’s okay. I have it. If you get close enough, you can attack without difficulty.”

“yes?”

I don’t know if I just use magic to keep it in check from afar, but other than that, it’s possible to deal with it with a needle.

Taking care of his eyes, he whistled and pulled out a single needle. Ranze, who was watching from the side, asked, not hiding his surprise.

“Such crazy. What else is that... Could it be that’s why you were able to jump up the wall earlier?”

“You’re very quick-witted.”

“No, I just said it, but is it true? You jumped like that while stepping on that thin thing?”

“Well, you can combine two of them and do your best.”

I felt it since yesterday, but in many ways, she was a woman who built a wall with tension. Contrary to my expectations, she thought that she would take cover like the other knights. Contrary to my expectations, she looked straight at the flying dragon, which was trying to do something stupid, and fixed her blunt weapon as if it was no big deal.

“I don’t believe it, but you don’t know.”

Looking away from him, he shrugged his shoulders with a sullen face and added just one more word. If the attack with the needle fails, are you going to break the dragon’s head with that club? It’s a different kind of dependability compared to Ekaterina.

But if my predictions are correct, nothing will go wrong. In the first place, the flying dragon that comes down will be caught with an ax, not a needle.

-Kieek!

The flying dragon, which had fallen from its head with a sound that was difficult to call beautiful even in empty words, spread its wings wide and raised its head. That alone drastically reduced the danger of the flying dragon and the demons riding the flying dragon.

The reason why the flying dragon knight is scary is not because the flying dragon attacks. It’s dangerous because the riding dragon knight uses mobility, pours magic, and physically penetrates the gap created by it. Rather, if the flying dragon turns and pushes its claws in like that, only the area of the target will be widened, and it is likely that it will go straight to the nether world.

I felt it last time, but their flying dragons were less trained than Ethiel’s. I presented the ax to the dragon with a satisfied smile.

-Your height... What?!

As if it were a demon, there was no way they could avoid the two-handed ax thrown by a flying dragon with all their might.

As the ax blade flew under the raised jaw and split the skull, the dragon’s head fell backwards and fell. I screamed out in fear, but I wasn’t interested in the guy who would die on its own anyway, so I jumped up and stepped on the falling dragon.

And in the basement of the academy, he tried to run by using the sense of running on the back of the great devil who transformed into a dragon.

“what?!”

In the first place, my target was a latecomer following behind a dead flying dragon to attempt a jet stream attack.

As soon as I confirmed that the dragon was dying without being able to resist, I pierced the dragon’s face with bamboo sticks.

-Kwaaaaang!!

The ensuing flashes and explosions engulfed his vision, so he couldn’t see the sight of the four dragons and their riders getting caught up in the explosions and flames from the destruction of the magic bullets. He couldn’t come to his senses not only from the visual shock but also from the shock given by the sudden situation, but that didn’t last long either.

Before the heat and smoke of the explosion caused by the magic bullet had faded, Eldmia pierced through it and threw the ax.

This is the last episode registered

. Biryong is clever.

Not only domesticated species are clever. The premise does not change just because it is a wild dragon. On the contrary, he just gets more clever and gets better at using his own tricks.

However, apart from the intelligence of such a dragon, there was one characteristic that was not well known, and that was that it was sensitive to magical power. Humans cannot use magical powers, so they don’t know, and demons use flying dragons recently, so that characteristic that has not been systematically understood is related to the birth of flying dragons.

Nowadays, they are treated as cumbersome monsters and are regarded as too insignificant, but they are beasts that inherit the blood of dragons, which can be said to be the ancestors of magic and magic, even if only slightly. Rather, it can be said that it is strange that he does not feel magical power.

The flying dragon could not use magic or apply magic. They just fear beings with magical powers from the realm of instinct.

That’s why the flying dragon who was hit by Eldmia’s enchanted fist was afraid of him.

It took less than 10 punches before fear turned into obedience, he followed orders as far as he could understand, and didn’t run away even if Eldmia let go, but that was enough for the dragon.

And while flying through the sky several times, the flying dragon realized that his judgment was correct.

Kill them by throwing their weapons, kill them all by exploding something, and suddenly jump onto another drake to kill them yourself. The fact that there were more dead enemies than living enemies even though it was just flying came as a novel shock to the flying dragon.

There is no need to claw, bump, or bite.

If you just fly, a scary human will take care of it.

And be safe.

It was the moment when the formation of trust, which is one of the key processes that Etis-L’s dragon pilots and knights learn through rapport with dragons over many years, was completed with just punching.

“Come on!”

As soon as the human voice was heard in the ears of the flying dragon, which had reached the point of liberation in a profound realization, the flying dragon, waiting for the human in a circle in the air, naturally followed the call.

◈

When I shouted at the flying dragon that was circling overhead like a crow looking for prey, it turned its gaze toward me very naturally and started approaching me at high speed.

“Why are you listening so well...?”

To be honest, I thought I might be able to run away the moment I jumped off his back and assaulted another dragon...

Running away is rather dumbfounded because I listened to him so well, as if someone who didn’t know what to do would regard it as a pet he’d raised for 10 years.

Well... I killed the flying dragon I was riding with the mindset that good is good, and after transferring, the sky looked clean. Another flying dragon unit flying from the inner castle came into view, but once the army advanced and entered the outer castle, there would be no problem.

Certainly, as I felt during the last hijacking, the Demon King’s aerial power was incomparable to both the dragon and the rider. Of course, it was true that just spraying magic bombs like this above people’s heads to neutralize the wizards’ spell interference and then implanting magic was threatening enough, but the flying dragon knight wasn’t at that level.

The one who endured the best was the owner of the flying dragon he had just climbed on, but when he tried to dive, he died with an expression as if he had suffered all the repercussions of the world.

“Hmm, what should I do?”

In any case, once I had seized control of the air, I fell into agony with my arms crossed, admiring the flying dragon’s cleverness of maintaining its altitude in place as if it were natural when I did not give any other instructions.

There is only one magic bomb left in my hands.

It wasn’t a dangerous thing that just exploded just because it was smashed, so it was good that I crashed the demon army’s flying dragon unit without any hesitation, but of course, I couldn’t refill it

. After seeing the virtues of the fantasy-style grenade, which boasts excellent performance to the extent of it, having to fight another twenty flying dragons with only one of these... ...is very

annoying.

“It’s true that my role is full and overflowing at this level...”

Standing at the crossroads of whether to help the allies by taking control of the air as it is, or to step back and inspect the flying dragon, a loot that far exceeded expectations, I waited for another 30 seconds. After thinking about it, I drove the flying dragon toward the city again.

I don’t know anything else, but this bomb is impossible to deal with in any way.

Even I can’t stop it from activating itself.

In the case of magic tools that interfere with the use of spiritism or magic when activated, it is possible to neutralize it with my own ability because it continuously absorbs and releases magic, but this is a structure that does not flow out of magic and is close to self-development. He said he didn’t. My ability is close to unplugging appliances that are powered externally, so I feel infinitely shabby in front of things that run on batteries.

But you’re just going to explode something like this to block the enemy’s entry from the outside? More soldiers may die from explosions or rubble than from battle. At least, the advance party with different names in my hand was not used in time because the army was still in the open area, and it would be really rare if they decided to explode in the city center.

It seems that this is not a new weapon that has appeared for the first time today, so if you are a veteran of the battlefield, you will be preparing your own countermeasures... but it is a bit

inefficient to try to solve problems before they explode and then sort them out. Unlike the exterior, the defense attack will be impossible even with the trick I tried, so it is correct to minimize the damage to allies.

Having made that decision, I checked the most crowded place among the fast-approaching dragon troops and then increased my speed.

It was a bonus to burn the will to refill this time.

◈

At the command post, Alt looked at the outer walls of the city that had been destroyed so quickly unlike expected, and gave the order after a short thought.

“Move the command post.”

“Where do you have your mind on the location?”

“In front of the outer gate. You can’t go inside.”

Originally, it was a command post that did not move until the siege was over once it was in position, but due to the long battle with the Demon King’s army, their field manuals had many differences from conventional common sense. And the most representative of them was the transfer of the command post in siege warfare.

The demons never fixed a strong army to defend a single city. They make it move as much as possible somehow, and if something goes wrong at the base after making the most of it, they return to the base and aim for the rear while the defending troops hold out. Therefore, the siege against the Demon King’s army begins after breaking through the outer castle with a high probability.

The reason why the human race was able to respond to such absurd things that the human race couldn’t even dare was because they were demons.

It was possible because of the use of magical power and the application of gates in a much more diverse way than the Humans based on such magical power. Even in most cases, the strength of the individual is superior to that of the human race, so there are relatively few moving troops and supplies, but the firepower is rather excellent.

How much damage was done to that ridiculous mobility in the early days of the war? In a way, it was a natural procedure for the command post, which had been close to observing from the rear, to become a little closer to the battlefield and to give orders faster even by a minute or a second. At first, there were many opinions that the command post was exposed to danger as a result, but this is a counterargument that does not exist now. When it comes to dealing with demons, the danger is the same no matter where the command post is.

However, it was clear that the enemies would not be able to respond properly as this attack went in a direction no one expected. And Alt had no intention of wasting the enormous gains he had gained from this.

“Contact the cities in the rear and tell them to move their troops. Report the situation to the royal family. Maybe this time, we can push the front line a bit, not just Levien.”

The achievements that Eldmia has made are enormous.

Even the enemy’s flying dragon unit, which is attempting to bombard through the outer wall alone, counterattacks and suffers few casualties. Thinking that it would be a siege unprecedented in the history of the kingdom, Alt moved his gaze to the Marquis of Levien, who was calmly examining the map of the battlefield, leaving behind his subordinates leaving the command post to carry out his orders.

“Did you expect this?”

I couldn’t help but ask. Because it was a situation that made no sense.

If a human could do such a thing even in a siege with demons, it goes without saying in a war between humans. In the future, if the royal family and nobles, led by the Margrave of Levien, attacked other countries, even Alt couldn’t understand how quickly and quickly the conquest would take place.

There are simply more strong people than you think. However, those who are strong in the form of smashing the existing common sense like that are a minority. Even Eldmia had just become an adult, so there was plenty of room for further growth.

‘That’ is a strategic weapon. A strategic weapon that would inevitably cause trouble when held by a single aristocrat. If the Margrave of Levien had expected all of this, Alt was thinking of submitting a report with words of warning to the royal family.

“You mean breaking through the outer castle without taking any damage? No. I didn’t think of it at all.”

However, the aristocratic girl, who was good at hiding her feelings, remained ignorant. Contrary to his calm tone, his eyes are alive. However, there was no way to know if that was the result of the commander who was satisfied with the result as expected, or the joy of the one who was avenging the past of losing his family and losing his territory.

What does today’s battle mean to a girl who almost lost her family at a young age?

The incident at the time when they were pushed into a quick attack because they knew nothing about the demons’ tactics was a disgraceful and painful past for the kingdom.

“We’ve been together for a long time, but I can’t figure it out at all.”

Looking at the smiling Marquis Levien at the end of his speech, Alt thought.

Somehow, it seems like he is seeing himself when Lange bursts into both the incident and the achievement.
