Chapter 492 (1/2)
The Great Grass Field (2)
“Is so?”
The great land lord of the Pieric Province held his head It was already ten days since the Archone to the Great Grass Field But he hadn’t received any es from him since
‘If he doesn’t return…’
The ice wall that blocked the path of the valley started to melt down He told him before that it would hold for ten days, so it would melt soon
‘I can’t just wait for him, either’
He already had heard enough about Ian Page He had trusted Ian’s hty poould solve this proble
“Adol”
“Yes, My lord”
The great land lord Kalian called ‘Adol,’ aiting outside of the barrack, the best warrior of his, and ordered him to prepare for war
“As we planned, form a formation Focus every ar squads ere guarding the mountain side, as well”
“As you command”
Adol’s voice was revering
He was prepared to die
He quickly left the barrack
‘Sir Ian, I do not blame you’
Kalian was telling the truth It must’ve been too much for him to solve this problem solely by himself He rather wanted to blame the royalty and the Ivory Toho refused to send supplies and armies, but only sent him alone
‘Rather, it ether on our side’
If so, he could kept blocking the path with the wall, so he could resend his request to the Empire and earn some time to let them come
‘It is too late for regrets’
Kalian stood up Then he picked up a pair of axes that were laid on the barrack It was the family heirloom battle axes, ‘Pieric’s Executioner’
“We will defend it, me and my soldiers”
Kalian self encouraged himself
Protecting the province and the people in there, as the strongest shi+eld of the Empire
With hundreds ti himself, he left the barrack and confronted his battle field He looked at the ice wall’s height, which was quite lower, calmly
“Humph, come at me, foul creatures”
At the ice blocked Valley of the Big Snake, every force was focused The imperial armies which he received as the first reinforcee McGedie, and catapults for the first strike
“My lord”
“Uhm”
After a few hours later, they finished their preparation
The ice hich had inal size
“Prepare the catapults”
A quiet order of the great land lord on the watch toas relayed to every catapult squad It was quiet, and everyone was nervous There was no speech, nor encouragement It was the silence before the storm
“Eee…”
The conducted edie shook her body
She rather preferred to being teased by the supplies squad now
Not only her, but most of the other soldiers, as well They recalled their best moment of their life or a better moment than now They all wished to rewind their time
“Hold”
