30 Reinforcements (5)

30 minutes later.

Luna's soldiers gathered.

It was impossible to relieve all the fatigue of war in one day, but Roman Dmitry's orders did not hesitate.

It was for Luna's safety.

Among those who were armed to go to the battlefield at any moment, there was also a familiar face, such as Smith, who had dealt with Carlot in front of everyone.

Roman Dmitry said.

smith.

Yes.

"I heard that soldiers in the Luna Kingdom basically learn how to fight in the snow. Am I right?

Yes.

"How is that?"

Smith looked into Kaden's eyes.

It was because I couldn't talk about Luna's skills recklessly, but as Caden nodded, he opened his mouth.

"Luna's skills can be divided into three main categories. The first is to maneuver in the snow, for which special shoes are used. Usually, the reason the foot falls into the snow is because a person's weight is concentrated in a small area. Luna's shoes disperse it, and if you're an aura swordsman, you can spread mana under your feet to increase efficiency. Of course, just wearing shoes doesn't mean you can move freely, you have to learn to move accordingly."

The explanation continued.

The second is how to use the weapon.

The third was how to overcome the cold.

It was systematic.

As Arcadia changed to an extreme environment, the Luna Kingdom had to adapt to the cold in order to survive.

So many years have passed.

When the crisis came as the cold got worse recently, the birth of Isabelle avoided the worst, but before, only humans could solve the problem.

The way Smith said.

It was the product of hard work.

The people of Luna were proud of this, but Roman Dmitry's standards had many loopholes.

above the sky.

It was snowing.

Luna's fortress was still able to prevent it from accumulating to her knees with snow removal magic, but the world outside the fortress was dyed pure white.

It was still daytime, so that was enough.

When the sun goes down and the world is colored with darkness, Arcadia is the world where your eyes go over your knees and even your chest fills up.

Luna's way.

It lacked the fatal part.

Roman Dmitry looked at Kayden.

"Kayden. In Luna's way, is there a way to fight when it snows?"

There is not.

"Why?"

" Because there is no reason to be prepared for such a situation. Arcadia was a world where peace was guaranteed. A method of surviving the heavy snow was necessary for Luna's safety, but there was no reason to prepare for a war through the heavy snow. There was also the belief that they would not attack each other, and the Luna Kingdom is not the only one that has restrictions on movement under heavy snow like today."

It was the same.

No matter how much orcs deal with white wolves.

It is impossible to break through the heavy snow and capture Luna's fortress.

Roman Dmitry said.

"I have a suggestion for you. While living on the Arcadia Continent, you learned how to overcome the extreme cold with your own body. Even if the manual for heavy snow is not properly prepared, it does not change that you are in an advantageous situation. From now on, select 100 of Luna's soldiers and defeat only one of Dmitry's soldiers. The confrontation will take place outside the fortress, not inside the fortress."

It was an unexpected development.

only 1 person.

When the signal was sent, an unknown soldier came out.

Roman Dmitry's enlistment is clear, but I can't remember his name.

' Dmitry's soldiers are all excellent aura swordsmen. With 100 of Luna's regular soldiers, it must be a difficult match in the first place, regardless of environmental factors.'

That was then.

"Kayden. You may make up a hundred people, including you and the Aura swordsmen. If you succeed in subduing Dmitry's soldiers. In Dmitry's honor, I will grant you one wish.

A match involving an aura check.

Kayden's expression turned to embarrassment.

* * *

one to one hundred.

He wasn't unique like Chris, Kevin, and Ares, and the man with a blind face didn't look that strong.

His name was Monson.

He was one of Dmitry's enlisted men, had no special position, and was, according to the description, an ordinary man who helped with chores in the market before turning to work.

However.

I had no intention of being distracted.

infiltration operation.

When he subdued the orcs of the ice cave, he clearly witnessed what kind of existence Dmitry's soldiers were.

'Maybe it's not that easy. And the Roman Dmitry I know is not one to fight the impossible.'

taking steps

Cayden instructed the soldiers.

As Roman Dmitry said, he made up a hundred people, including himself and the Aura swordsmen.

"Never be vigilant just because your opponent is only one. Outside the fortress, it is difficult to secure visibility due to the heavy snow now. You can win unconditionally by narrowing the distance while leaving each other on your back, and by quickly blocking the space when the enemy attacks first to take advantage of the numerical advantage. We have already received great favor from Roman Dmitry. Even if he wins, he wouldn't dare wish for him, but in order to receive recognition of the value of the Luna Kingdom, he must win at least as much as the battle in the snow.

Okay.

Everyone showed their will.

squeak.

The gates were opened.

As we went outside, a world without any protection from magic unfolded.

hey hey hey.

The wind blew.

A chill penetrated my bones, and the snow was piling up so much that it filled my vision.

I couldn't understand how they tried to subdue a hundred people in such an environment.

But the bets had already begun, and as the soldiers, including Cayden, formed their ranks, Roman Dmitry signaled from afar.

start.

fault.

Monson disappeared into the snow.

only a few steps.

There was no sign of Monson.

Cayden raised his mana and looked around with sharp eyes.

"Watch out for your surroundings! It's a fight in our favor if we're not vigilant.

evil.

The senses have become sensitive.

That was then.

The moment something caught his senses, a fight broke out before Caden could even warn him.

puck!

blah.

"Gagging."

Ouch!

It was an instant.

Monson, who appeared through his eyes, subdued the soldier in front, and struck a vital point with a bladeless part, knocking down three soldiers at once.

There was no way to resist.

Aura swordsman Cayden barely understood Monson's existence, so ordinary soldiers could not react to Monson's sudden presence.

this.

Kwareung.

Curly rumble.

kicked the ground

Hastily attempted to attack Monson, but Monson disappeared back into the snow as if teasing Kaden.

It was frustrating.

No opponent was seen.

It was partly because of the severe blizzard, but there was no trace of Monson's disappearance.

Even if Luna's skills are extremely polished, it is impossible to move without footprints.

In addition, the snow was piled up heavily due to heavy snowfall. Even himself had his eyes pierced to his ankles, and Monson disappeared like a ghost.

That was the beginning.

one by one.

Monson subdued the soldiers.

"This way!"

membrane Whoops."

Tight!

"Damn it."

confused

above the snow.

It was Luna's home ground.

Although he was confident he would win, Monson was like a ghost and made fun of Luna's soldiers.

The results were not different just because they were Aura tests.

They tried to use Luna's method to locate Monson, but by the time they felt a presence, they were already under attack.

puck-

staggered

Seeing the knight kneeling, Cayden, called the white flying squirrel, couldn't do anything.

It was slow.

The self that boasts the fastest speed in the Luna Kingdom.

I couldn't even dare to catch up with Monson.

one two.

The number of fallen soldiers gave hopelessness.

Cayden, who was fighting with willpower at first, had no choice but to admit the overwhelming difference from a certain point.

' Is it that Luna's method was wrong?'

finally.

all fell

As Cayden was the last to remain, a creepy voice was heard from behind.

"Knight. It is now over."

Monson followed.

It was certain.

It was a complete defeat for the Luna Kingdom.

* * *

The bet is over.

overwhelming defeat.

Cayden accepted the result, but couldn't quite understand why there was such a difference.

Luna.

They struggled to survive in a harsh environment.

The skills he'd been honing in the past were not as easy as being overpowered by Dmitry's skill, which has four seasons.

Luna's soldiers.

Roman Dmitry said while looking at them who had suffered the loss of the remnants.

"Luna has been working hard to overcome Arcadia's environment. I don't mean to deny that effort. But now, under the attack of the orcs, it has been proven that your efforts have ruled out earnestness."

" Are you saying that we were not desperate?"

okay.

Luna and the North Sea Ice Palace.

What is the difference between the two?

It was that peace was guaranteed.

Even if Luna didn't have to try desperately, there were no enemies around that threatened their lives.

"Luna must have been desperate when the cold first started. I made several techniques because I couldn't survive without overcoming the cold, but things changed after Queen Isabella was born. God bless you with guaranteed peace and warmth. I should have lived You have spent so many years in an extreme environment, unprepared for what will happen. That was the problem. Heavy snowfall in Arcadia is a problem that cannot be called a variable. Although you have suffered from heavy snow from time to time, you have only trained to fight under the most ideal conditions. You would have thought that was enough. Most people don't understand trying to be strong, so overcoming prejudice alone will make you feel like you're trying hard enough.

twisted

Couldn't say it was anyone's fault.

The intricately intertwined elements made Luna what it is today.

"You have lost your independence. Just because one Queen Isabella has gone missing, it is not normal for a country to become confused and lose consciousness. What Monson has shown you against you is the product of struggle. Rather than honing how to overcome the cold peacefully, I created a way to make the most of the extreme environment because it is impossible to survive unless you risk your life like a reckless one."

The soldiers raised their heads.

It was miserable and shameful, but he did not turn away from reality.

"Luna belongs to Dmitry. And I will empower you to be self-reliant."

if.

If you don't take advantage of the opportunity.

Luna will be excluded from Dmitry's envisioned future.

"The name of what I am trying to teach is called 'Snow Heaven's Mugong'."

* * *

That evening.

Everyone was lost.

After completing their training, Luna's soldiers began to doubt whether what they had experienced was real.

" Nonsense.

"How did Dmitry come up with these technologies?"

Seolcheon's invincibility.

It was disappointing.

It was perfect from one to ten.

The history of Bukhae Ice Palace does not end with simply moving quickly on the snow, but how to hide its presence while moving on the snow, how to leave no traces, and the location of enemies in situations where there are visual restrictions. He explained details such as how to figure it out.

That's it.

I could understand Roman Dmitry's words.

If the presence of the enemy was excluded from Luna's technique, the defense of the North Sea Ice Palace always prepared for the worst.

" Perhaps, Roman Dmitry-sama is not a messenger of God."

It was the words of a soldier.

Roman Dmitry.

It was an out-of-the-ordinary existence.

He brought in only 30 reinforcements to subdue ten thousand orcs, and presented a new direction with his extensive knowledge that even Luna did not possess.

No one said that heavy snow would be a problem now.

It was truly a divine being. Each move left a strong impact on my mind.

Kaden shook his head.

no. He is not a messenger of God. You have just entered the realm of transcendence."

believed in god

There was no change in heart to follow Him.

But, as Roman Dmitry said, the life she will live in the future will be self-reliant for Luna's future.

The plan is in two days.

He said he would go through enough training and go on the road.

The existence of elves is important.

It is necessary to help them as soon as possible, but Roman Dmitry said there is no need to rush to work in a hurry.

The existence of elves only increases the odds.

If they couldn't last even a few days, it was only that much power in the first place, so it was necessary to stabilize Luna's power first.

Luna too.

Entered Dmitry's realm.

In the judgment that put the safety of the allies first, he developed a blind faith unlike when he first asked for help.

Dmitry when he was an ally and Dmitry when he wasn't.

The feeling was completely different.

two days after that.

quiver.

The gates of the fortress opened.

soldiers going out.

In their eyes, there was no longer any doubt about victory.
