Chapter 1015

Episode 1015. Rift recon seems to be suitable, how about it?

The knights who returned to the barracks of Alpha Company began wearing chain mail one by one.

Because they were knights who had awakened mana, they wore chain mail made of steel chains as easily as wearing cloth.

In less than half an hour (about 7 minutes), the four knights finished arming themselves.

Still, Cale, the eldest of the same company, asked Elio.

“Are you armed?”

“Do I have to?”

Yeonjeokha asked with a puzzled face.

I didn’t arm myself when I was in Kang Ho or even when I was running across Kuju, but I don’t know if I have to do it here.

“Wouldn’t you know if you were a sword master? Sword experts (professionals) are also armed, so it would be good to do it.”

I was a little hesitant to relate to those words.

To be honest, I still don’t know how far my inaction will go here.

He had met the Duke of Escatos, who was known as the Sword Master, but the existence of mana itself was a higher power than spirit energy, so it was impossible to predict.

Seeing that Count Codrantes, the sword master, survived the meteor shower, he wondered if he would be as good as that.

Before leaving, while Cale and the knights were looking at Yeonjeokha with ambiguous eyes, a middle-aged man came in with a package.

Cale was delighted when he saw the middle-aged man.

“Eric, you are welcome. A new engineer has arrived in our company...”

Eric Jasper said before he could finish his sentence.

“I know. I got a call late last night, so I’m here to pick it up now. Are you Sir Elio?”

Eric Jasper asked Elio, who was wearing casual clothes, as if to confirm.

“yes.”

“Quartermaster Eric Jasper. Just call me Eric.”

Eric is a commoner with an aristocratic ancestor – aristocrat only in pattern – ‘Ramus (bough branch)’.

I didn’t know the situation of having a relationship, and I just thought of him as a ‘noble and easy-going uncle’.

“Ah yes. What about it?”

“By Baron Robin’s instructions, I’m here to give you military uniforms. Please take it and sign it.”

After handing over the package, Eric held out a piece of paper and a pen.

When the dark-eyed Yeon Jeok-ha hesitated after receiving the paper, Eric poked at the blank with his fingertips.

When the younger brother, who had been scammed in the past, hesitated, Cale said a word.

“Write anything. Because it’s not that important.”

Then, as Eric explained, he added.

“Of course, you can write anything you like, but keep in mind that the same signature must be signed in order to have legal effect.”

“Let’s not be too intimidated by signing the confirmation that we received this outfit. So, newcomers can’t do it any more? By the way, don’t you have chain mail?”

“As you know, chain mail is the personal equipment of knights. It is not officially paid by the marquis family.”

“Yeah, I know. I’m not saying that I’m going to be put into the rift right now, but I’m going to have to wear only clothes.”

“I understand the circumstances, but... there are no personal equipment in the logistics department.”

“Then what can I do?”

Cale looked at Elio with a sad face.

Even if it’s a savage, it’s been reinforced with one excellent article, so I hope it lasts a little longer, but I don’t know how it will be.

In the meantime, I imitated and drew a rough letter that I was writing.

After confirming the signature on the certificate, Eric greeted the knights and left without looking back.

As soon as they matched, they changed into stiff, thick knight clothes.

It was dyed red and blue, the same as the one worn by the nobles gathered at the marquis’s barracks last night.

Kyle said something.

“It’s much better. Let’s go now.”

Cale led the way, and the four knights followed.

Cale and the knights moved to the clearing between the camp and the ice wall.

The gigantic ice ogre glanced around at the humans and strode to one side of them.

Just like the nickname ‘the strongest monster on land’, he didn’t seem to have the slightest fear.

As the Ice Ogre approached, Cale ran towards it with a centurion and ten musketeers.

Before long, Cale’s troops and the Ice Ogre confronted each other.

First, the gunmen’s magic rifles opened fire.

Puff puff puff—!

Sparks flew from the ice ogre’s body.

However, the magic bullet did not scratch the ice ogre’s skin.

There was a limit to the magical power of the magic rifle itself.

If it had been a magic bullet fired by a mana user like the Phantom Knights of the Royal Palace – with the effect of increasing magic power – it would have pierced the skin, but it was impossible with a regular gunman’s magic bullet.

The magic bullet only made Ice Ogre angry.

“Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”

With a wild roar, the Ice Ogre charged at the musketeers.

Then, Cale slid into the ice ogre and cut the ice ogre’s calf with the mana sword.

Kwajik-!

With a loud popping noise, the Ice Ogre’s calf went into incontinence.

Proof that Kayle’s mana sword is stronger than magic bullets.

The Ice Ogre’s head, which was facing forward, jerked downward.

It is to find a human who has injured his calf.

Baron Dennis Robin, who had stopped talking to Elio and watched in silence, suddenly drew his sword and ran like the wind.

Soon after, the baron pierced the mana sword into the side of the ice ogre, who turned his upper body to find Cale.

Poo-!

Cale and the baron’s joint effort was natural, as if their hands and feet had been matched several times.

“Big!”

Considering the Ice Ogre’s size, the longsword stuck in its waist wasn’t a big deal, but the shock was great, and the Ice Ogre just screamed in place.

Even after pulling out the sword stuck in his waist and throwing it, only his eyeballs rolled back and forth.

It was a frightening move.

Then, this time, the centurion under Cale came to support.

The Baron, Kayle, and the Centurion circled around the Ice Ogre and opened fire on them.

The ice ogre’s skin, whose mana had weakened due to a back injury, was split open by the three men’s mana swords.

The Ice Ogre, covered in blood, eventually escaped through a crack.

However, Baron Dennis Robin did not pursue the fleeing Ice Ogre and returned to Elio.

After a brief fierce battle, the area in front of the rift became quiet again.

Baron Dennis Robin said as he brushed off the Ice Ogre’s blood from his blade.

“Ice ogres are less intelligent, but quick-witted. If you don’t want to do it, you run away like that. You can’t go after it when it’s like that. There is a good chance it will go berserk.”

“Frenzy?”

Fabian explained instead of the exhausted baron.

“When faced with an extreme situation, high-ranking monsters may enter a ‘Berserker’ state. It’s called berserk, and it doesn’t take the trauma of human berserkers.”

“A zealot?”

“A knight who has fallen into a berserker state by using a forbidden drug to make his body run wild is called a berserker. There is even a saying that the drug that causes Berserker is made from the blood of a beast.”

In the meantime, Baron Dennis Robin, who had finished grooming the sword, said to his younger brother.

“Are all your questions answered? Originally, the strongest of the second lieutenants was supposed to follow me with a flag, but I don’t think he would like that either. Right?”

“yes.”

“Then, Fabian will continue to take on the rider as of now, and Kyeong-eun... I think rift reconnaissance would be suitable, how about it?”

Although the word is ‘rift reconnaissance’, it actually means to look around Alpha Company.

However, they took it as ‘go into the rift’.

“It’s like that. what.”

Anyway, the ice wall, the crack, and the silence after the meteor shower were questionable, but the couple didn’t hesitate at all.
