Chapter 220

Episode 220:

The Red Hawks’ recovery speed was fast.

Proper food and plenty of rest.

With just those two things, they quickly returned to their prime.

Although it took some time, two days of rest was enough for them to go to war.

“All of them expressed their intention to participate in the war.”

Their resentment against the barbarians is so great that they say they will participate in the war without any special requirements.

The Marquis of Easton readily accepted them.

Easton is always starving for talent as it already has no manpower.

The red hawks are masters of the bow.

Moreover, with their outstanding talent as Aurors, their power was such that they had to ask for favors from here.

The Marquess of Easton opened a new unit comprised entirely of Red Hawks.

And they asked Arjuna to become their commander.

Arjuna did not allow me to reject what he wanted to reject.

No one knows the red hawk better than Arjuna.

Although they were defeated by the barbarians, there is no one better than her to lead them.

At least she had been their matriarch for many years.

“I know you feel guilty about them, but how long are you going to keep doing that? “Are you planning on not having a conversation until you die?”

“....”

She was speechless.

I gave up talking to her any more.

You have to realize this yourself, otherwise it is meaningless no matter what people around you say.

Still, I had orders and was the commander of the unit leading them, so I had to deal with them whether I liked it or not.

Whether intentionally or not, I had to talk to them.

“...There was definitely a harvest, but as expected, they didn’t seem to be affected much.”

The harvest from this mission to attack the supply detachment was neither great nor small.

Even though all their food was stolen, they were unfazed.

He seemed familiar, or acted as if it didn’t matter whether there was food or not.

“It seems like this great chief is trying to end everything with this war. And that goes for us too.”

The current situation of the barbarians that I heard about through Daejeonsa was miserable and cruel even if I tried to look at it in a positive way.

It is said that all non-combat personnel who are even slightly injured or unable to participate in the war become ‘food’.

What was even funnier was that the savages destined to become ‘food’ did not resist.

To that extent, they feared and respected the chieftain.

“You know what will happen if we lose this war, right?”

“Hmm....”

“Hmm....”

The retainers are drooling.

The unit commanders who commanded the units kept their mouths shut, unsure of what they were thinking.

The Marquis of Easton looked around at them and said:

“In other words, we must win this war. And we can win.”

The Marquis of Easton speaks confidently. His eyes turn to the tent entrance.

Vane and Arjuna were watching the meeting with their arms crossed.

“There are two masters with us and the elves are on our side. And now there is also a unit made up of the new and haunted Red Hawks.”

Wouldn’t it be strange to lose?

The faces of the vassals and unit commanders brighten at the words of the Marquis of Easton.

That’s right. It may be difficult if only Easton is there, but now that the powers of the Elves and the Red Hawk have been combined, losing now that the two Masters are together is even more strange.

However, there are always variables, so we must not let down our guard.

“They say they are still advancing. “I guess they knew that sending out reconnaissance was pointless.”

They found out too late that we had annihilated the scouting party.

Originally, one would have been careful at that point, but the barbarians had no word for caution.

Rather, they were approaching with their main force, knowing that sending them off in small amounts would be of no use.

“Miss Beatrice is reinforcing the castle walls with the elves, and the red hawks will be using their strength on the castle walls.”

The barbarians were approaching at a speed that was neither fast nor slow.

“I just have something to think about...”

“I joined the special unit.”

“I know.”

A separate unit with Bane as the unit commander. They ambush barbarians who are away from their base or attack their empty homes.

A unit with a different mission than mine.

“Raymond what do you do?”

“I think I will focus on Mercury for now... I will probably join the assault corps.”

The Marquis of Easton wanted me to join the assault corps.

And I was planning on accepting the offer unless something else happened.

“Isn’t it very dangerous to be an assault force?”

“Is there anything in war that isn’t dangerous? It’s all dangerous. “The separate unit that Miss Selina is in will not be easy in terms of risk.”

“Because my father is with me.”

Well, that’s true.

With the Sword Master by his side, it would be difficult to find a safer place in the war than next to him.

‘Assuming I don’t know the dragon is with me.’

To be honest, I can say that I am with a moving fortress.

With Riems’ ability, I can hide myself and perhaps the people around me.

‘However, if Reems uses his power in earnest, other dragons may notice.’

Dragons who are already very sensitive to hatchlings will not remain silent if they find out that hatchlings are being raised by humans.

It is when a hatchling steps in that it is truly urgent.

“That too. “I think you’ll be safer next to Lord Bane than inside the castle.”

But I can’t tell her that.

She cannot be seen as completely mine, like Ellis or Arjuna.

It’s true that I’ve become friends with her, but it’s not to the point where I share secrets.

“You don’t have to worry about me. The elves are with us... and above all, there is a master here too.”

When I point to one side and say that, she follows me and looks there and nods.

There was Arjuna, hiding in a corner, watching the red hawk.

The red hawks seemed to know that she was watching them, but they did not show it.

This is because she runs away when they approach.

“It’s really complicated over there....”

“Huh? “What did you say?”

“no. it’s nothing.”

I stood up and brushed off the dust around my buttocks.

It was time to warm up by sparring with the knights before the battle.

Dang-dang-dang-the bell rings.

The urgent sound of the bell filled the castle.

“It’s the enemy!”

“The enemy has invaded!”

The soldiers move hastily at the sound of the bell.

At the sound of the bell announcing that the enemy was invading, the commanders in the barracks came out all at once.

The Marquis of Easton rushes out of the command barracks and catches a soldier passing nearby.

“What’s going on?”

“The barbarians are coming!”

“what?”

They’re coming in so quickly?

According to the scouts, it would take some time for the barbarians to get here.

But it came so quickly. In an impossible event, the Marquis of Easton climbs the castle walls with his knights.

I followed him and signaled to Arjuna.

Even though I didn’t say anything, she sensed my intention and moved.

I was a little worried, but fortunately she approached the tribe members first this time.

Feeling relieved, I climbed up the castle wall.

“Crazy...”

And I couldn’t help but sigh.

A large army with no end in sight was running toward the castle.
