Chapter 245

Chapter 245. (2)

“There must be a fierce battle going on by now. Can we stop the Ernesia Kingdom army with only the current forces of Nuaton Fortress?”

“... As long as God cares, defeat is never...

” “I don't want to hear such an obvious answer!”

Nelvenia widened her eyes in displeasure.

“Tick?!”

“I just want the battle situation and opinions as they are. Do you really think I'll get angry if I tell you the truth?”

“Ah no...

In the end, the priest who proudly flattered him completely shrank when the saintess shot him.

It wasn't my intention to protect him, but another priest hurriedly brought up his opinion just in time.

It was under the judgment that there was nothing better to go against her planting than this.

“I will tell you my honest opinion.”

“yes.”

“It is considered that it is only a matter of time before it is captured.”

At the overly candid opinion, others forgot to breathe and watched.

“...is it a fall?”

“No matter how brave our soldiers are, the power of the Ernesia Kingdom army cannot be underestimated. Even though it's an advance party, if it's their equipment and troops... even if they hold out, they'll have no choice but to be captured.”

“okay.”

Nelvania just meekly accepted that honest opinion and fell into thought.

“Can I make it through?”

“Even if we hold on to the battle now, according to the information, it seems that the main force will join additionally... there...

“there?”

“The one who joined the main unit is Arell Ernesia....

The voice of the person who reports it has no choice but to be quiet.

The person who embarrassed her at the last meeting with a half-sophistical claim.

However, to them now, it is an object of fear in a different sense.

Even though they were on the sidelines about what happened after Arele Ernesia joined in the last Three Kingdoms War, they are well aware of it.

It is a large arrow that flies ceaselessly, and even high-level wizards and knights.

It was enough to become an object of fear.

It will definitely affect the morale of allies.

“okay. It means he is coming.”

However, Nelvania kept calm throughout the entire time, only repeating the words “That's right”.

“Certainly, it would be difficult to watch Arele Ernesia join.”

“Then...

” “First of all, let’s get rid of the enemy that is engaged.”

She suggested it all too lightly.

No one dared to question her opinion.

It was because she knew deep down why she was so unfazed by such an unfavorable war situation.

There is reason to be so relaxed.

“I will dispatch the Holy Knights.”

The priests were a little bit agitated by that decision.

Holy Knights.

The elite knights of the Holy Kingdom.

The elite force that had been preparing for a war against the Kingdom of Ernesia for several months.

“Are you sending them out already?”

“Isn’t it too early?”

“Originally, I planned to send troops later, but it is not right to lose the border like this. And now is our chance to destroy some of their forces before Arell Ernesia arrives.”

Nelvenia asserted herself confidently and ordered them to respond.

“Let them show the power of our new shield!”

The siege to capture the border fortress continued for days.

It was not an easy battle from the perspective of the Ernesia Kingdom army.

It was not an impossible battle either.

The reason I didn't rush at once was to avoid rapid attrition and also to be wary of counterattacks by the Holy Kingdom.

If that's the case, you'd better capture it before then.

The nobles thought so and launched an all-out attack.

The soldiers of the Kingdom of Ernesia struggled to climb the ladder or break down the gate.

If they tried to hold out there, they would rather have had to engage in a siege within the castle.

To open the castle gate and come out directly.

I must have lost my fear.

The aristocrats of Ernesia did not leave out anyone and regarded it as such.

Although it was undoubtedly well-armed, it was only then that it was trampled on by the forces of this side.

What are you doing?

At that time, one of the knights standing at the head of the Holy Knights shouted in a loud voice.

“I will not forgive you for your sins for daring to set foot on the land of the Holy Land!! Full force assault!!”

As soon as the words are over, he gives an order to advance and begins to march toward Ernesia's army in earnest.

Looking at the situation, the nobles spit out this without exception.

“Anyway, they seem to have lost their minds.”

Even tactically, that action is nothing more than an act of suicide.

But you can't just laugh at their reckless behavior.

Even if you do stupid things, you need to break them down properly as long as you are attacking them.

“I will send a knight from this side to defeat it.”

“Let us also send an article.”

The nobles scrambled to recommend their talents and decided to make the Holy Knights a prey for their specialty.

And the knights sent by each lord led their soldiers to defeat them.

“No matter how hard the armor is, the only thing that works is the battle between soldiers!”

At the forefront, the knight, Feltyn, raised his sword and rode his horse.

As a knight of the Marquis of Guimment, he was ordered to make the most of this war before anyone else, so he charged more courageously than anyone else.

A blue aura forms on his sword, and it spreads out as if it would erupt at any moment.

No matter how you look at it, you are halfway through Aura Prevention.

No matter what kind of armor he wore, he was confident that he could lightly tear it apart with his own aura.

“I will take your heads first!”

He swung his sword while sneering at the actions of the paladins who quietly formed a defensive line.

Even on the last battlefield, he never gave in to those who put forward the strongest armor and shield and cut them all with his sword.

I was confident in my heart that this time was no different.

His blue aura hits the paladin's shield.

“How foolish!”

He felt absurd at their attitude of only defending until the end, but he did not want to have mercy in his hands any longer.

The first thing is to take the head of the enemy knight and offer the ball to the master.

Already in his mind, the scene of splitting the enemy's shield, as in many previous battles, vividly came to mind.

one.

Hmm?!

Something was strange.

By the time I felt it, it was already too late.

The moment the shield touched the paladin was smiling strangely.

It was as if he thought he was caught.

“Ugh!!”

And for some reason, the sword he wielded was flying towards himself.

The moment he understood that, his neck had already fallen off in vain and was rolling in the air.

“Repel the aura?!”

“What kind of weird noise is that!!”

The nobles were taken aback by the news of the sudden defeat.

I sent troops to trample on the Paladins, but they returned with an incomprehensible defeat.

“That's... I don't know either.”

The knight who led the soldiers at the front died, so another knight who took over the command after him knelt down and explained what had happened.

“The only thing I saw was that the knights of the Holy Kingdom bounced off Sir Feltin’s swordsmanship as it was.”

Lord Feltyn was decapitated by the blade he wielded.

Everyone who saw the scene or heard the news was amazed.

Could there be such an absurd end as a knight?

But there was no time to mourn his death.

The knights who were attacking the knights of the Holy Kingdom one after another had fallen out with their own sword skills seriously injured.

At that point, they noticed too late.

I don't know how it went, but the knights of the Holy Kingdom bounced back the opponent's sword.
