Chapter 51

Editor: Capitano
Otto and others approached the scene where a battle was raging in the darkness.
Argh!
These filthy rebels! Come at me! As long as Im here, not a hair on His Highness the Crown Princes head will be touched!
Dieeeee!
The battle was fierce.
Knights and soldiers belonging to the rebel forces attacked the Crown Prince and his group relentlessly.
They were determined to fight to the death because the rebel leader, Duke Alex, had put a huge bounty on the Crown Prince and his group.
On the other hand, the Crown Prince and his group were also fighting tooth and nail to overcome this crisis.
Lets move.
Otto sent out a signal.
Swiftly, silently.
At that moment, Camille and the magic swordsmen from Koutachi families moved in unison, taking their positions.
Just as they settled into position.
Start with fire.
As soon as Ottos signal dropped, the attack began.
Swoosh! Swish!
The Camille and the swordsmen from the Koutachi family, who had been hiding in blind spots like dense forests or behind trees, attacked the rebels holding torches.
Argh!
Owww!
Those holding the torches fell.
Swoosh!
Magic swordsmen used simple water-based magic to extinguish the flames of the torches that fell to the ground.
Then, as if darkness had been waiting, it swallowed the forest.
Until the torches went out, the forest had been relatively bright, but in an instant, it turned into a dark abyss.
!
!
!
At that moment, both the rebels and the Crown Princes group were shocked and came to a complete halt.
Initiate the attack.
Otto and his group moved in unison, sweeping away the rebels.
Argh!
Aaaaaaaargh!
Kuhaa!
In the darkness.
The rebels screams echoed incessantly.
It was a one-sided massacre.
From the beginning, the combat prowess of the Camille and the Magic swordsmen from the Koutachi family was as strong as elite knights from powerful nations. Even in a direct confrontation, they could annihilate the rebels in the blink of an eye.
Moreover, launching a surprise attack in a favorable situation?
It was only natural that a slaughter was taking place.
Your Highness the Crown Prince.
While the Camille and the Magic swordsmen from the Koutachi family were wiping out the rebels, Otto approached the Crown Prince and whispered to him.
W-who are you?
That startled Crown Prince.
We are allies.
Otto reassured the Crown Prince.
Please wait quietly until the battle is over.
W-who who are you?
I will tell you soon.
It didnt take long for the Crown Princes question to be answered.
Thud!
About 30 seconds later, as the last rebel fell, the battle ended.
Gonzalez.
Otto said to Camille.
Yes?
Camille widened his eyes, as if asking what kind of nonsense it was.
Gonzalez, light up the fire.
Gonzalez?
Hurry.
.
Although Camille felt somewhat uncomfortable being called Gonzalez by Otto, he followed the order without questioning it.
This operation was a top-secret mission conducted undercover, so there was a need to use aliases to conceal their identities.
Why Gonzalez of all names?
Camille was suspicious of Ottos intentions.
***
When Camille lit the torch, the darkness lifted, revealing a gruesome sight.
Corpses, corpses, and more corpses.
The forest, strewn with the bodies of fallen rebels, was nothing short of a hellish scene.
Who are you? The Crown Prince asked Otto.
About a week had passed since then.
Camille and the Magic Swordsmen managed to shake off the rebels once again and took a moment to catch their breath.
Ah, huff
Kasim, a Magic Swordsman from the Koutachi clan, gasped for breath and spoke.
C-Camille Are we going to die for real at this rate? Ah, huff
Maybe that could happen.
Camille replied shortly after.
This this is madness complete madness Ah, huff We cant go on like this Uwaaaah!!!
In the end, Kasim vomited everything he hastily ate a few hours ago, including dried meat and bread crumbs.
Running around constantly to lure the rebels had taken its toll on his stomach.
This is a mess.
Camille looked around briefly and tightly closed his eyes.
Ah, huff
Ugh
Huff, huff
Damn it
Not only Kasim, but the other four Magic Swordsmen were also in a terrible state.
Even the specially trained Magic Swordsmen of the Koutachi clan were gradually reaching their limits.
Of course, it was thanks to them that they were able to carry out the mission for a week, but
Just hold on a few more hours.
Camille encouraged them.
Were almost at the Felton Fortress, and night is falling. Just endure for about three more hours
At that moment.
Bark! Bark!
The sound of military dogs barking in the distance started to reach their ears.
Damn it.
Camille bit his lower lip and immediately got up from the position.
Ugh.
Ughhh.
The Magic Swordsmen also stood up and followed Camille.
And so, the pursuit continued.
-GRIT!
Camille imagined Otto, who was probably enjoying himself in a relatively comfortable situation, and sharpened his resolve to seek revenge for being forced into this hellish mission
***
Meanwhile, Otto, who had taken the Crown Prince to Felton Fortress, was enjoying himself.
Just as Camille had anticipated.
Ah, slurp.
While savoring a satisfying lunch, Otto patted his belly and belched.
Your Majesty.
One of the Magic Swordsmen approached Otto and reported.
The Crown Prince requests your attendance at a meeting tomorrow morning.
In truth, Otto hadnt just been idling around.
Through the rescue operation, Otto gained the trust of Crown Prince and successfully secured a position within the suppressing army.
In other words, from now on, Otto was scheduled to fight against the rebel forces as a member of the suppressing army.
It was a calculated move as well.
A fight is only enjoyable when its intense.
It was impossible for the Lota Kingdom to defeat the Rochan Kingdom in a direct confrontation. That was an impossible feat.
So, as Otto, it was necessary to weaken the overall military power of the Rochan Kingdom as much as possible through this civil war.
Let him know I understand.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Otto replied and checked the current date and time.
Were nearing the end of the operation. They should arrive at Felton Fortress by midnight tonight.
Otto had been calculating the arrival time of Camille and the party at the Felton Fortress with great precision.
He wont die. It will be extremely difficult, but they wont die.
Based on experience, the survival rate of Camille and the Five Magic Swordsmen was 100 percent.
And Ottos prediction was accurate.
That night.
As the clock reached midnight, Camille and the Magic Swordsmen arrived at Felton Fortress.
Well done, everyone Huh?!
Otto, who was waiting to congratulate them, was taken aback when he saw Camilles party.
The Black Legion Commander Gonzalez and five others Mission Successfully completed Reporting to the Commander
Camille, who had been rolling around like a beggar for the past week, pulled out his sword with a fierce aura and approached slowly.
Ah This is bad.
Otto realized that Camille was furious and started taking hesitant steps backward.
You You did well Hahaha Hahahaha Well then, lets go inside quickly Uh Um I mean um wash up and rest
At that moment.
Die.
Camille charged at Otto.
Aaaargh!
A scream escaped Ottos mouth.
