238 The Old Knight's Decision

"Everyone's, listen. I'm going to make a decision as the head of the Arm Knight family. That Barca army is coming this way. Probably after the Knights of Our Arms who did not pledge allegiance to the Xyrian family. So I'm thinking of going down to Barca's military gate."

Barca has rapidly begun to make a name for itself among the Fontana army in recent years.

It was not until it was finally time for snow to begin to melt even in Arm Knight's territory that I heard that Barca had once again begun marching to Urk.

I received that report, but the mountainous pattern of land did not make it possible to put the soldiers together and go out in formation immediately.

I wonder if happiness or unhappiness, as a result, has changed the fate of the Arm Knight family.

Many of the information that came in one after the other doubted my ears.

The Xyrian family, who betrayed Urk, developed into a state of combat as soon as the Barca army arrived, but was immediately suppressed.

Afterwards, the Xyrians were forced to abandon the name of Urk by Barca, who said it seemed to have been used like a shield on the battlefield.

Not sure about the report alone, but Barca has attacked from the rear of the Xyrian army fighting the Urks.

But that determined where the battle went.

The Urk army did not pay a single arrow to Fontana's army, and was defeated in the showdown of the Mirias Flats.

Barca.

He's a knight who recently came out, and now he won't know his name in Urk territory.

Murdered Raymond, the famous knight known as the guardian of the Fontana family, in a peasant uprising in Fontana, a neighboring territory.

It was then taken to the knight by Carlos de Fontana, who began to show a new presence as the dominant.

But I'd say none of them had any visibility yet by then.

The name came to pass only after Ars von Barca, knighted as the head of the Barca family, came to Urk.

My ally, Miriam, destroyed the Keema Cavalry.

But this can't be happening.

A knight named Miriam has known me well for a long time.

Anyway, I fought alongside him on the battlefield many times.

But they say the cavalry to which that Miriam belongs lost.

Moreover, Ars, the Barca family owner, was alone.

It was not believable at all.

Lose to just one opponent while that Miriam is around?

Besides, in the form of the annihilation of all the cavalry that was 1000 years old.

I didn't really know what to believe.

So much so that I thought I'd lost my mind.

But Barca's strength was unmistakable.

Barca then continued to make fast advances.

In Urk, after taking over Master Pessi, who had the power to be the Lord, in Arborest, he took over the Lord.

No one doubted its strength already.

So I noticed.

Times change, that's a milestone.

That was actually clear with my own eyes.

I saw the Barca army approaching my Arm family and I knew it clearly.

The Barca army is on its way to Arm Knight territory.

After the report, I went across to the dragon cavalry to scout.

And I saw the Barca army.

That was completely different from the way I knew the army to proceed.

We were heading for the Army Cavalry at a certain speed without a line.

Normally, an army is harder than anything to take control of.

Getting the gathered peasants to their destinations without delay is harder than words.

Depositing soldiers in the bad stuff to march on, it's not even uncommon to drastically reduce the number by the time you get to your destination.

That's right.

They may be waiting for a life-threatening battle ahead of them when they're taken as soldiers.

It's no surprise that there are those who flee.

But the Barca army was different.

There are well-aligned soldiers marching in without disturbing the line.

It's not like someone is looking at you, it's just going down the country road.

When I saw it, I realized it.

Barca says Ars von Barca is not just one strong army,.

That army is too heterogeneous.

I understood that it was not by chance, but by necessity, that the Urks were defeated.

That's what I thought. I went back to the hall and told them to go to their own quarters immediately.

The Arm family goes under Barca, he said.

There were naturally some who disagreed.

But things need to be quick.

I managed to convince him that this was my last job, which would be the shorter of the rest of my life.

And when the Barca army managed to enter Arm Knight territory, our family consolidated its policy, flying the white flag and surrendering.

From that Barca army there was, surprisingly, that Miriam's grandson, Payne, who came to negotiate with the Arm family as a messenger.

I spoke with Paine in a courteous manner.

After all, Payne felt the same way I did.

It seemed that Payne was faster than me because he noticed in that fierce battle where Pessi's army and the Barca clashed last year.

A boy engaged by that pane.

It's a boy that will be 12 this year.

When I say hello, he talks to me, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Zitan."

It was different that I just thought that the stronger one was the other.

Lord Tanatos, the young man who is opposite to Mr. Byte, the older brother next to Mr. Ars, and his part-timer, is so much more physically pushy.

But it was still Lord Ars who was truly terrified.

Magic.

I have fought against the knights on the battlefield many times for a long time.

But the magic was stronger than any of them.

The Lord, who is the head of the aristocracy, would be more so if only by his magic power.

But I've never seen that intense magic before.

The magic is too intense to look like black darkness.

There was something in Barca's street name that said "White Devil" or something, but the other way around.

Whatever you think of that, it just looks like a pitch-black demon.

What is this one thinking now?

Talking to me about Fox Valley makes me lose sight from time to time.

I'm looking around.

The knights of my offering and the soldiers of the House of Arms waiting in the distance.

If there was even a slight strange movement there, I'd probably respond immediately.

Kill all who are present here and attack the House of Arms.

It was horrible.

I don't know what's damaging this guy's mood.

I taught everything I could know about the Fox Valley that was asked.

but I told him he should never go any further than that.

The Fox Valley was once a land where the Urks had to raise their total strength to look up and give up.

It's too dangerous.

but if Barca's soldier dies more inadvertently than that, the matter may lead to Master Ars's anger.

But he's gone.

If you enter Fox Valley, not just the soldiers, but Master Ars himself, will not be safe.

That's what I thought, but I'm back.

With a flaming ore called phantom metal in your hand.

I can't see the bottom.

Heart to heart, I thought so.

That's why I also agreed when they told me to pledge my allegiance to the Baltic family, not to Barca.

Because I sincerely thought we should never turn against each other.

And that wasn't a mistake.

Master Ars sent a letter to the surrounding cavalry.

To Barca against houses that did not pledge allegiance to the Xyrian family around them using the Arm Knight Territory as their starting point.

And waited.

If you pick up the letter and move immediately, you'll have just enough time to come and say hello.

Conversely, he deemed the letter ignored without an immediate response.

It wasn't long.

The knights who came instantly to bow their heads were forgiven.

It probably looked at the march of the Barca army just like I did.

Just because I saw that you shouldn't defy that senseless.

But there were some things that weren't.

Maybe he was willing to consider it slowly.

But there was no such respite.

Barca started attacking the knighthood.

It also stabilized its surroundings at a fearful speed.

Will it eventually descend to the Barca military gates, or have the territory attacked become about a third of the old Urk territory?

They cut the territory northwards from the southeastern part of the Urk territory where our Knights of Arms lived.

It may be said that the eastern part of the original Urk territory has been removed.

But Master Ars himself did not participate in this fast-forward move.

I'm a part-timer.

Lord Ars' brother, Lord Byte, and my Lord Byte, gained territory with the help of the Baltic family.

In the meantime, what Master Ars was doing was building a city while taking flame ore.

A new city surrounded by high walls on all sides.

Master Ars made it up.

by the magic Barca possesses.

Within the former southeastern part of the Urk territory there was relatively good transportation and the city was created in the former Knights of Raml for the reason that it could also be reached in the Fox Valley.

Bartolia, a city surrounded by walls, 1 km long on one side.

A building of the same standard, made of white bricks, was created that had never been seen in the heart of that city, where it was regularly lined up.

A brightly colored glass wall, apparently called stained glass.

An unprecedented building with fantastic sights when the light hits it.

A building called the Cathedral was once built.

A part-timer named us in that diocese.

We have been given a new name, renouncing the name of Urk and pledging allegiance to the Baltic family.

Thus, to the east of the former Urk territory, the Knights of the Baltic were born, and Master Ars became the chief principals in both fame.
