331 As a result of the disease

"Um, Master Byte. Are you sure Master Ars is willing to go to battle when it starts snowing like this?

"Am I? What is it, Elvis? You think you can't believe what Ars said?

"No, you don't, Master Byte. But, see. Aren't all the people here shaking their bodies? I was wondering if I could really get to Percival."

"... ma, you sure do. Sometimes I don't really know what he's thinking. But I'm fine this time. Look, the Ars one's here."

Winter is coming soon, and the Fontana army is set to move.

Maybe this is what they say about water in their sleeping ears.

Mr. Ars, who came to Bartonia to represent the Fontana family, suddenly declared that.

I believe in Master Ars.

You can even say you worship.

When I thought I had become a knight in a generation from a peasant, when I realized it, I was at some point even going to be the chief deputy of the nobility.

Will that be a year or so ago already?

If I thought Master Ars had returned to the city of Fontana just as he was battling the Memento army, I would have fit into the status of principal deputy before I knew it.

Me and the others were surprised.

And it was the death of the Fontana family's predecessor, Lady Carlos, that prompted it.

Lady Carlos, who was escorting the king, was attacked by an assassin of the Percival family and died carelessly.

Surrendering to mourning, Master Ars moved to discuss the warmth of the earthquake, which was unfortunate but firmly grouped together Fontana territory.

Maybe he wanted to move right away because the period of serving mourning was over.

That must have been unforgivable for Master Ars to have died.

... but I am still anxious.

Because when it snows, you can usually barely travel.

How do we get to the distant Percival family territory?

Can you fight there even if you could go?

What's more, how do you get back to Fontana after the fight?

I didn't think I'd make it back safely.

but if you ask Master Byte, he still seems to have a good idea.

Maybe it's okay.

With that in mind, Master Ars appeared before the gathered knights.

You look so cool riding a horny Valkyrie.

Were you supposed to be 14 by the next New Year's Eve?

Compared to when I first saw you, I think you've grown quite tall and become more and more adult.

Just now would it feel like an adult-child border?

But the way it looks in front of us is stronger than anyone else in this room.

I feel like there's something like trust that makes you think it's okay to follow this guy, even if anyone else says you can't.

That Ars lady, but she had brought a lot of Valkyries behind her.

It's all horns.

Valkyrie, a servant beast created by Master Ars.

Among them, horns are special.

What, you're a servant beast, but you can use magic.

Master Ars is told that this horn can only be left to something special.

In fact, so much so that there is a famous story that all the Valkyries given to my brother, Lord Byte, when he also became independent as a Baltic family, were hornless.

Thoroughly that only Master Ars and his brother Kyle can direct orders to the troops using magic that boasts unparalleled strength.

Zawah......

It was when I was watching the corner.

I accidentally uttered a voice that didn't make me speak.

I'm not the only one.

So are the others.

What did Master Ars say now?

Everybody, get in the corner.

Master Ars definitely said so.

I thought I heard it wrong, but apparently my ears didn't go crazy.

Because the horned Valkyries, who would no doubt have heard the words of Master Ars, approached each of us themselves.

... Can I ride?

Can I ride the Servant Beast, which is a high Warcraft type, out of the group among the hugely expensive Servant Beasts?

That's what everyone thought.

But our Lord rode on his back with refreshment.

I'm a part-timer.

After all, Master Byte must have heard about this beforehand.

He was kind enough to ride his love beast (without horns) to the city of Fontana before riding to the horn given to him by Ars.

Look at that and start moving with the others, me and me.

"Riding"

Honestly, my head is still confused.

But my body moved.

Master Ars is more than willing to move orders quickly into action.

Just because you can't understand it with your missing head, don't be chirping.

My lord, Lord Byte, cast the magic [riding] and then spanned the back with horns.

I think it was really helpful for the bytes to develop this magic.

Without this, I wouldn't be able to ride this Valkyrie properly.

But if you cast a spell, you can go anywhere and even handle weapons while riding.

No, I might have to be a little careful in this guy's case because he has horns.

"Ice Summon"

Master Ars opened his mouth again when he saw that we all rode with horns.

At that moment, everyone's body trembled in a freak.

Of course, so do I.

'Cause you will.

Because Master Ars used the [Ice Summon], the top magic of the Fontana family.

I wasn't on the spot then, so I didn't see it in person.

But I heard that story so many times that I could have an octopus in my ear.

I'm talking about when Master Ars fought the Arborest family that was west.

Master Ars used the magic of the [Ice Epiphany Summon] to destroy only 30,000 troops of the Arborest family.

Even now, the story is a story.

The [Ice Summon] was used in front of us.

I guess it's more impossible not to freak out.

... No, but you're not a scary spirit, are you?

I had been shown the Bite-like Ice Essence during training that I could use [Ice Essence Summoning] as well, but I was so scared with a big ice wolf.

But Master Ars' spirit is just a ball of blue light floating around with Fuwan.

You don't look too scared.

I mean, what are you going to do with that ice sperm summoning him, Master Ars?

Changes keep happening while me and the others around me wonder.

It's the ice spell that came out around Master Ars who cast the spell, but it keeps growing.

Whoa, how far are we gonna get in numbers?

Ice essence like a ball of blue light that increases in number one after another.

I also stopped counting numbers altogether when that was over a few dozen more.

You're gonna be okay, right?

Nothing. Master Ars isn't going to attack us with this, is he?

No, I believe you, don't I?

I believe you, but I'm scared because I'm already surrounded by ice sperm all around me and there's no escape altogether.

"Fontana Army, we're leaving. Follow me."

"Oops!!

"Huh?"

But while I was a little freaked out, things suddenly started to move.

Master Ars signals his appearance, and Lord Byte and the other knights of our class respond.

Every Valkyrie started to move the next moment.

I didn't do anything.

This is probably that one.

I guess Valkyrie is listening to Master Ars' orders.

Because a large group of Valkyries began to move without any disturbance.

Are you going to stay like this?

You know, these Valkyries are starting to run at great speed.

You know what I mean?

It's snowing, you guys.

I know Valkyrie can be cold or hot, but we humans are different, right?

I want to ask Valkyrie, who is riding, if he knows where it is.

"What, that? Isn't it cold?"

"The cold is fine, Elvis. The ice sperm we put out around the population is absorbing the cold around us."

"Ah, Master Ars. Long time no see."

"Oh, it's been a long time. This time it will be a battle with that Percival family. The opponent is a strong enemy, but it's a good opportunity to give you a hand. Good luck with that."

"Yes. Um, just now, that's amazing. I didn't know ice sperm absorbed the cold."

"My [Ice Epiphany Summon] can only be outnumbered. That's the kind of little trick I'm good at. Ice sperm to surround the marching group to reduce the cold. Even so, it's only not too cold. It'll have an effect on the wind."

Oh, my God.

That Master Ars responded to my leaked voice and spoke to me.

Besides, I can't believe you still remember my name.

I'm going to leak too much happiness.

Oh, if you're thinking about that, there's a horn on it that's been protesting against me with a horn on it.

I'm fine.

Don't worry, it won't just leak.

After that, I was just allowed to talk to Master Ars for a moment.

Apparently, there were measures in place for proper winter travel.

This time using horns to march.

And use Ars's [Ice Essence Summoning] to combat the cold.

I was surprised to hear the whole operation.

Here's the operation Master Ars took.

To attack the labyrinth streets in the Percival family territory, they make a sudden approach to the offensive from a distance at once.

To that end, we put in Valkyrie, a magical horn.

In the magic that horns can use, there is something called [meditation] that I can use as well.

This [meditation] means that if you cast a spell and then go to sleep, you can take any tiredness off perfectly.

But I can use it another way.

It's a way to keep moving while using [meditation].

[Meditation] It's hard to get tired even if you keep moving your body.

What happens when I use this with horns?

They can keep running at high speeds for a long time because they are less tired thanks to [meditation], even though they are running at great speeds.

Moreover, they can reduce fatigue even more by running to alternate places where the wind hits them in order when traveling in a group.

Master Ars said something about slipstream and drafting, but I wasn't sure, but he can finally run fast when he runs in a group while serving as a windscreen in turn.

So I guess the cavalry regiment held by the Baltic family was also forced to replace it with a horned one, not without its own horn.

This, he said, would allow the Fontana army to move at an unconventional rate.

I see.

Is that why?

Not a single Fontana Army today is called an infantry.

Everyone is riding the Valkyrie.

In other words, this army will literally be an "army with only knights".

The focus is on the Barca Army and the Baltic Army of the Bites held by Master Ars, but there are a few other principally knights with territory.

But the knights seem to have a limited supply.

Well, I guess that's something I can't help but say.

Because without [riding] like the Baltic family, none of us, even if we were knights, would be able to ride the Valkyries.

They say the Baltic family is the main force in this operation because they can all [ride] on the Valkyrie.

Nevertheless, the speed of movement of this complete cavalry regiment is really fast.

Normally, with infantry and heavy troops, the army moves blunt-footed.

However, this cavalry group rushed through the distance in just a few days that it would normally take months to travel as an army to the Percival family.

I couldn't believe it.

It seems like a dream to be able to come to the labyrinth town at the target point in such a short period of time, even though you're actually traveling on your own.

But it's true.

We, the Fontana Cavalry, succeeded in assaulting the Percival family from Fontana territory in a super short period of time that no one would have expected.
