Chapter 794

Episode 794: Stolen Heirloom (16)

When Zeke drives the allied forces from the outside.

Captain Maxwell was clashing with the Knights of the Baybon Kingdom.

“Bayton Knights and Baybon Kingdom Knights. Do you have any plans to do well with people with similar names?”

Onell, the knight commander of the 3rd kingdom, made an exaggerated joke.

Maxwell glared at him.

“Baybon defending Celia. Aren’t you afraid of the future?”

“A knight has only the will of the kingdom.”

“You will regret it.”

“That doesn’t make sense. Let the story stop.”

Sreureung-!

Onell pulled out the white bastard sword.

Likewise, Maxwell also raised a sword.

In terms of the number of knights, the Kingdom Knights led by Ornell could be said to have the upper hand.

However, the opponent is the elite knights of the Small Kingdom Alliance.

Each one of them was capable of becoming a medium-sized knight in a decent kingdom, so they couldn’t relax.

“The opponent is a person known as the Master. While me and the vice-captain are blocking it, let’s clean up the rest.”

“All right.”

“It will be difficult, but I will try.”

The knights poured mana into their bodies.

The sharp energy comes out steadily, making the air even heavier.

A knight rushes in as a signal.

The Baiton Knights and the Kingdom Knights clashed at the same time.

Caan-! Caan-!

Whoa-!

As they collided with all their might without searching, several knights who allowed the attack died in a single stroke.

The armor is shattered and the mana coated sword is broken.

Certainly, the difference in skill between the two knights was obvious.

However, there is no business in front of the quantity.

As the two clung to one knight, the momentum seemed to be leaning toward the Baybon Kingdom.

‘There is a chance of winning at this rate.’

Onell glanced around.

The sorcerer corps behind the knights were worried about themselves and couldn’t use their magic like before.

In the meantime, Glaman and the soldiers of Devon Kingdom went to harden the war situation.

All that remains is to hold on to the ankles so that the Knights of Bayton cannot go out to the battlefield.

Since he was also watching them clearly, victory was no different from winning.

said O’Neill, striking at Maxwell.

“Give up and walk away. We also have no intention of fighting until we leave the Lawfield Plain.”

Maxwell, who had easily blocked the joint attack between him and the vice-captain, laughed bitterly.

“Sounds funny.”

Kaaaang-!

At the same time as he spoke, he vigorously shook the sword facing him, and O’Nell, who had not yet resolved the career transmitted through the sword body, was pushed back two steps.

As soon as the distance between him and the vice-captain increased, Maxwell immediately followed suit.

When I hurriedly twisted the sword to block it, a tremendous shock hit my entire body.

“Keugh...!”

It was just that the swords touched, and I almost lost my mind.

Certainly, the master swordsmanship was different, but very different.

“If I had time, I would have taught you swordsmanship.”

“Can I afford to relax like that?”

“I don’t think anything will change even if the three kingdoms form an alliance.”

They didn’t know, but Maxwell knew.

Beyond that forest, the 50,000 troops of the allied forces are encamped.

Since there was such an uproar, the allied forces, which had already organized the Silia main force, would soon come to support.

‘Until then, I’ll just have to hold out here.’

Thinking so, Maxwell shed the swords of O’Neill and the vice-captain and conserved his stamina as much as possible.

An hour since the knights clashed.

Quite a long time has passed, but the reinforcements Maxwell hoped for still haven’t arrived.

At this point, he too became impatient.

Could something be wrong?

If so, now the disadvantage is themselves.

The Kingdom of Glaman and Devon is by no means a weak country.

No, rather, it could be said to be a huge kingdom with some degree of continental hegemony.

As soldiers from the two kingdoms roamed the battlefield like they were at home, the war situation gradually flowed in the direction of the allied forces being defeated.

Less than a minute passed.

He, who seemed small as a dot, came close enough to make out his face.

“Are you the commander?”

As if he didn’t care about the people around him, his cold eyes turned to Maxwell.

He nodded.

“Yes. Do you have any business for me?”

“Our lord wants the plains of Lawfield. If you return, I will not stop you.”

return.

What that meant was tantamount to surrender.

Maxwell shook his head, as the Allies could not back down.

“It can’t be.”

“If you don’t step back, you will only die. Do not rush orders when giving advice.”

“You are so arrogant. Are you saying you’re going to deal with all of us alone?”

At his words, Zeke said in a disappointed voice.

“Your lord expected it to a certain extent because he was a famous knight, but he was an idiot who couldn’t even judge his opponent’s skills.”

Piik-!

as soon as the words are finished.

Blood gushed from the vital points of the knights around Maxwell and the chief mage of the Centenary.

“uh?”

The whole world turned red around him.

Cheoninjang, who fell to the floor, had a face that did not even know what had happened to him.

Of course, that was also the case with Maxwell.

He didn’t understand what had just happened.

I didn’t even feel the way he was swinging his sword.

However, his sword definitely reached even the knights behind him, including himself.

The sword should still be stuck in his waist...

when he’s lost.

Already in that instant, over twenty knights fell one after another.

And finally Maxwell could see.

In his hand was an intangible sword made of divine power.

Halfman couldn’t erase his laughter at the ever-growing money line.

The branch manager said with a tired expression.

“If you smile like that, doesn’t your face hurt? I know you are happy, but please keep your face.”

“Keukkeuk! Branch chief, branch chief! If you make a lot of money but don’t laugh, is that a person?”

look at this! Halfman opened his hands.

Then he saw a table already full of gold coins.

The quantity was so great that some fell to the floor and piled up in heaps.

“Since the Confederation declared war, work has increased a lot.”

As the number of weapons orders increased, the top half of the halfman rose to victory like a tiger with two or three layers of wings sprouting out.

Is that all?

As Dwarf-made weapons come in one by one from the duchy, people here and there say they want to buy them.

The neighborhood even held an auction, so I said everything.

Of course, a significant part of it went to fund the development of the principality, but since there was so much money to be earned, the barn was filled again.

“This is all thanks to Lord Taesangdan. It is worthwhile to pray to the bronze statue of Lord Taesangdan five times a day!”

Looking back, I feel like I’m already insane.

The branch manager, who quietly clicked his tongue inwardly, said.

“I have more to tell you than that.”

He pulled out the letter he had tucked away in his arms and handed it to him.

A wax seal with a red rose motif.

Halfman broke the seal without hesitation.

“Are you sure this is the place?”

“They will sell their parents if you give them money, but one piece of information is certain. It will be reliable.”

“Looking at what you said, did you have a hard time?”

“Don’t even say anything. No matter how much money I revealed, I was robbed.”

It must have been quite difficult, so he shook his head.

Hafman, who took out the letter and read it, immediately threw it into the hearth.

Fire-!

The head of the branch asked when Harpman, who had a big smile just a moment ago, had a dark face.

“Is there a problem?”

At that, only the harp made a sick sound.

“It looks like the big one is about to come.”

His voice was quieter than ever.
