Chapter 249

Chapter 249

‘The fact that I didn’t get caught while carrying out the mission to destroy the keystones, is it part of the plan of the man called Fox of the prairie in order to lure us in? Maybe he thought it was already too late, so there would be no way......? Why the hell did he do such a dangerous operation?’

What if he defended with all his strength from the beginning? Or what if he made this strategy according to his nickname, the fox of the prairie? The honest commander-in-chief of Fibiel might have fallen for his scheme.

‘As well as the whereabouts of the rankers and outsiders who have not yet participated in the warr. There’s a lot of variables that we don’t know about. No matter how much I think about it, the war is already over with its current state...’

Leeha and Kijeong sat next to each other and thought about the war, but again, they could not understand with all the information they had.

However, the vague anxiety felt when the end was approaching, and the anxiety beyond it, was clearly captured by Leeha’s instincts.

Could it be called bad luck, or good luck?.

It was 5 hours later that Leeha learned where his anxiety came from.

-Hali –

‘Hmm? What?’

In the dark night, he suddenly heard a sound in his mind. Leeha, who had been maintaining Black Bass, heard a whisper.

– Health.... Potion...

-Who......? Ram Hwayeon?

The words kept getting cut off. No, it seemed like someone who could not speak properly.

Was it someone from the marching plains’ forces? Is it a whisper?’

Leeha opened his friend window. The moment he thought that Ram Hwayeon’s position could be seen, her position changed.

“U-uwaaa!”

“Ha Leeha, potion- quick-”

“R-Ram Hwayeon?! What was that? What happened?”

Leeha hurriedly took out a potion from his bag and handed it to her.

Her usual neat appearance was nowhere to be found, and se was covered in blood and her eyes couldn’t see properly.

“Healer!! Is there any healer? Healer!! Hurry, this way!!”It was only natural that Fibiel’s barracks had been turned upside down.

How many people reacted to Leeha’s shouting? Everyone from the Byeolcho Special force, as well as Pei Wu and Kidd, followed his voice.

“Hyung! What happened?! Petyr-? Ram Hwayeon?”

“Kijeong-ah! Byeolcho Healer! Quick !!”

Kijeong, who had come running with a shied with the thought that Petyr came had come to kill Leeha, could not understand the situation as he looked at the red-haired woman in Leeha’s arms.

However, he was the guild master of Byeolcho. He was more accustomed to working on improving the situation than trying to figure it out.

“Hamin-nim! Soo Ran-nim! Come here quickly! Abnormal status removal and healing!”

“Ram Hwayeon! Ram Hwayeon! Potion- damn it.”

Leeha hastily opened the lid and poured a potion into Ram Hwayeon’s mouth. What magic did she get hit by? Her body was stiffening.

She wasn’t able to receive the potion that Leeha gave to her properly, and she couldn’t even speak properly.

“Recovery!”

“Cure!”

“Extra heal!”

After a while, the healers came and poured out all kinds of holy magic. However, after one or two treatments, there was no improvement.

“Oh my gosh....... Who the hell did you fight with? T-the condition doesn’t go away.”

“Oh- Me as well. I casted heal, but why was the amount of heal only this much? Ram Hwayeon, can you see?”

The healers tilted their heads. Ram Hwayeon still didn’t answer. It was only after she got various healing magics that had cooled down thrice that she was barely able to open her mouth.

“Ram Hwayeon! Ram Hwayeon!”

“Shut up....... I can hear-”

She was able to barely frown upon hearing Leeha’s words.

However she didn’t look annoyed. She was dwelling in regret and gratitude, some emotions in between, to the extent that, if it was in reality, tears would have welled up in her eyes.

“What is it? What happened?”

“Puha, everyone! Gather everyone, including the commander-in-chief! It was a trap!”

But that feeling was quickly erased. After drinking an entire potion, Ram Hwayeon raised her voice again. “Trap?”

“Quick! All our supply lines have been cut off! It was Minis’ trap!”

It was an answer that Leeha could not understand, he was finally able to understand after her ‘real’ answer.

“No... should I say two?”

How can ten thousand turn into two people? The quick-witted users felt dizzy.

If they were users....

Necromancer Faust!

Ram Hwayeon nodded.

“Wait! No matter how Faust- I’ve seen it before, and it’s not like he can pull tens of thousands of troops out of nowhere! Faust-”

“That’s right, I said that because it was a force that could rival tens of thousands”

“That doesn’t make any sense! It’s not like one person-”

“I just told you. It wasn’t just one person.”

“Then? Is there anyone else like Faust?”

Ram Hwayeon did not answer. She slowly turned her head and looked toward the direction of Kijeong and Byeolcho Special Force. Byeolcho’s guild members were able to guess the answer from her ominous gaze.

Of course, this was also the case for Leeha, who watched their entire war.

“......Alchemist Crowley......”

Hearing Leeha’s words close to lamenting, Ram Hwayeon unraveled what happened in Marching Plains.

“Gaeryong-nim, there’s no problem with the barriers, right? I can’t see well today because of the fog.”

“Of course! Don’t worry, I have dispatched the kids!”

“Contact me if anything happens! I will be in the back!”

“Understood!”

The guild master of the Dragon Knights answered with a bright expression. He was extremely glad that Hwahong’s guild master suggested them because he was worried that they had no place in the war.

After Ram Hwayeon left, Gaeroyong moved.

He approached a man with a totem on his side near the supply wagon and tapped him on the shoulder.

Eunchon-nim, did you get dispatched as well?”

“Oh, Gaeryong-nim. Fortunately. We also received a generous downpayment. I Hwahong has a lot of money.”

He was the guild master of Seomgwang.

One day, they were fighting Hwahong under Byeolcho Alliance, but the world works in mysterious ways.

They did not think that they would get in contact with Hwahong again after doing a few missions at Castle Dale, such as escorting and perimeter control, so their joy was even greater.

“But was Marching Plains originally this foggy?”

“I had been here once before the war, but I haven’t been here since. I don’t think it was like this when we hunted here in the past.”

The masters of both guilds talked a lot.

It was natural to thoroughly examine the supply carts that have lined up among the guild members and the huge amount of potions and scrolls loaded there.

“Well, it reminds me of the old days. The dark fairies that came out of the wasteland up there, and all that stuff was really annoying. Right?”

“I don’t feel it now, but it was really great back then. How much did we have to avoid those pesky things.”

“That’s right.”

The nearby guild members listened to the conversation of the two people. They too were immersed in old thoughts.

“Slowly like this, we move materials while opening the door, taking the contribution according to the level of contribution, collecting the down payment, and after moving everything, we receive compensation for hard work. It war is like this, I would do it again.”

“Don’t show your thoughts too much, Gaeryong-nim. Can’t you see the bodies around? How sad would these people be if they heard you? They won’t be able to hear you anyway.”

“Kek, that’s right. Usually, their bodies disappear after getting the dropped items, but why is it not the same here?”

“I don’t know. To show the horrors of war, maybe?”

Along with the fog over the plains of the march, there was another difference from the usual so the two guild masters were amazed..

The corpses that have turned gray did not disappear. However, no one felt it was unfortunate.

It took them a couple of hours to move the supply lines while talking like that.

As they approached the border of Minis, the fog that had spread across the Marching Plains grew thicker.
