Chapter 160 – Chapter 31: Overwhelming

Zephyr was the protagonist of the Demon World in Knight Saga.

He was a strong warrior and magician, but he never stood alone on the battlefield. As a commander, Zephyr ruled the battlefield with his loyal subordinates and soldiers.

In-gong stood on the wall and looked down at the battlefield. His line of sight was filled with barbarians; there were over ten thousand of them. This wasn’t like the army of eastern barbarians he’d fought in Takar.

Their numbers were several times that, and the army was at least three times stronger. In-gong couldn’t fight using Zephyr’s method, as he lacked the forces to fight against a big army.

Then what should he do? In-gong took a deep breath. There was another protagonist in Knight Saga.

The protagonist of the Human World was the warrior, Locke.Locke wasn’t a prince. He had trustworthy companions whom he shared life and death with, but he didn’t have a loyal army of thousands who would die for him. Locke was a leader—a mighty warrior who brought hope to a desperate battlefield.

‘It is irrational.’

Locke’s style of fighting was different from Zephyr’s, so he was always at a disadvantage in a fight.

He was the brave warrior who advanced toward the Demon King’s Palace. After passing through tens of thousands of soldiers to reach the demon king, Locke finally became the hero who killed the demon king.

Locke’s method was different from Zephyr’s, and In-gong had to fight using it. In-gong would become a one man army who would reverse the situation. However, Locke was strong and had learnt Knight Saga’s SS rank technique, the Warrior’s Sword.

‘I don’t know.’

In-gong let out a long breath. The SS ranked Divine Sura Authority created a flow of aura which was breathtaking. He had three equipment from the elder dragon, and Amita had tuned them so well that they were incomparable to normal S rank equipment.

‘Master.’

Green Wind became a breeze which wrapped around In-gong’s whole body. She was just like Beatrice was to Locke.

Truth be told, it didn’t matter if she was lacking in support when compared to Beatrice.

Green Wind only had the strength of the wind. However, unlike Beatrice, she was always with In-gong. If he had to choose between Beatrice and Green Wind, In-gong would choose Green Wind without any hesitation.

Moreover, it wasn’t just Green Wind who accompanied In-gong.

‘Conquer.’

From the depths of his soul, the voice of the white woman with red and blue eyes was heard. The power of Conquest continued to increase.

In-gong felt a sharp sensation on his lips, and divine sparks rose over Amita’s newly created Dragon Scale Greaves. It was the final flame—the woman who took In-gong’s first kiss. For reference, the second one had been Green Wind. Somehow, it didn’t feel like he had been kissed twice, but a kiss was still a kiss.

In-gong laughed and made a fist, then he concentrated aura and magic power on Earth Quaker.

Anastasia had said, ‘What can you do alone?’ Her words were right. It was impossible for In-gong to overthrow an army alone. However, In-gong didn’t have to take out the big army alone.

“Carack.”

Using Night Watch’s power, In-gong hovered in the air slightly and used Call. Carack was a capable aide and knew why In-gong had called him. Instead of asking questions, he walked over to the disconcerted Anastasia. Carack’s role was to act as Anastasia’s escort. He would be able to protect her from blind attacks on the battlefield.

In-gong shifted his gaze toward the sky and the ground, prioritizing them both.

It was definitely far from Zephyr’s battle style. Moreover, Zephyr wouldn’t be here in the first place. Anastasia was a competitor for the throne. So, from Zephyr’s point of view, it would be best to just let her die.

However, In-gong was here. It wasn’t because Felicia had begged him to save Anastasia. Nor had he calculated that saving her would improve their relationship and gain a political favour. In-gong wanted things to change. He wanted to destroy the ending of Knight Saga where all of the demon king’s children died.

‘I like this about Master.’

Green Wind said suddenly, as though she had read his heart. In-gong smiled and separated White Eagle from Black Eagle. The two of them shone with a green light and started to revolve around In-gong.

“Let’s go, Green Wind.”

‘Let’s go, Master.’

No further preparation was needed, and In-gong rose up into the air. The power of Conquest spread out, focusing everyone’s attention on him.

‘Like a warrior!’

In-gong flew forward like a flash toward the closest wyvern. The dark blue Night Watch made a rough trajectory in the wind.

Kwakakakang!

There was a huge roar. In-gong accelerated past the wyvern instantly, with White Eagle and Black Eagle breaking its neck. As red blood splashed out from the wyvern, In-gong was already flying toward the second wyvern. There were continuous roars, and In-gong accelerated past each wyvern. It wasn’t long before the seventh wyvern fell to the ground.

The loud sounds in the sky, along with the falling wyverns, were enough to make a strong impression. The number of eyes staring at In-gong increased. There were still a few wyverns left in the sky, but In-gong’s next goal was the ground.

While soaring in the sky, In-gong changed direction suddenly. He dived toward the ground and stretched out his right hand, grabbing Ascalon from his inventory. He then unfolded the Dragon Bane—Ascalon’s super special move!

In-gong appeared as a lightning bolt as the charging lance struck the neck of a huge monster. The monster couldn’t endure the horrific shock and collapsed instantly. Astonishment and shock ensued as the monster cried out with pain.

As Dragon Bane was stronger against dragons, the monster wasn’t killed with one blow.

However, In-gong didn’t mind. The important thing wasn’t to stop the monster’s breath—it was enough to show that the monster could be neutralized by a single strike.

More gazes gathered on him. The battles on all sides of the fortress subsided, and as all eyes stared at him, In-gong inhaled deeply. He placed Ascalon back in his inventory, while he climbed onto the neck of the monster!

‘Black Specter!’

A dark blue fog spread out. The flapping sounds of hundreds of wings caught everyone’s ears. The dark fog started from the neck of the monster, crossing more than 100 meters to reach the main force of the barbarians.

It was a fearsome sight. The black fog descended and swallowed everything in its path. Despite the flapping wings, loud screams could be heard clearly. Then the sound of the wings stopped. The dark fog dissipated, and a white light emerged.

In-gong raised the king’s flag once again, then he spread out the power of Conquest. The red energy of war, which had been covering the barbarians, was destroyed. There were hundreds of barbarians at In-gong’s feet, but none of them were able to shoot their bows or throw their spears.

In-gong had overwhelmed them temporarily. The whole battlefield looked at him, and he stared out at what was before him.

He looked at Actius, the king of the western barbarians. In-gong already knew what to do next. He wasn’t a warrior who led through fighting like Karatus, the king of the eastern barbarians. Actius was a cowardly ruler. Therefore, he was always away from the main area of his first attack.

“Bedora!”

A monster standing beside Actius, opened its mouth at Actius’ command.

The monster was a horn drake, a land type dragon. It was a monster whose body was 30 meters long, and it ran on the ground with four feet without any wings. A fearsome power was focused on the giant horn on the forehead, and a pillar of light three meters in diameter shot out from its mouth. It was a fearsome breath incomparable to that of the wyverns’.
