Chapter 81: Ghost Special Corps (1) (2/2)
“40 hts, accompanied by a cavalry force of what looks to be 1000 horsemen”
“Then there would likely be infantry behind”
Siegfried ran soalloped on
“We can catch hinated point”
“Yes, sir!”
Duke Brans slowly closed the distance with the ene
A pursuit situation such as this was advantageous for them This was because the Hildess Republic’s cavalry were, in fact, famously awful
As raphy did not lend itself to operating a cavalry unit and they were few and far between Thus while the Hildess Republic’s h standards, their mounted troops were rather the converse
With both the quality of their horses and riding skills being inferior to the Strabus cavalry, the distance between the
And when the distance between them finally closed…
“Turn the tables!”
They stopped fleeing, and turned around to charge at their pursuers instead
“So they co anticipated that so like this would happen
The enemy was few in number anyhow At e of 300 horsemen While the Black Skulls were elite soldiers, Brans was not intimidated when he was acco but a le’
Duke Brans was sure of his victory
But it was then…
“Now!”
Sofried’s signal, a vivid aura started spewing from the enemy’s weapons
Not just one or two, but all 300 soldiers without fail
“What?”
“It-it cannot be!”
All were bewildered at this sudden spectacle of 300 Experts Regardless of whether they were bewildered or not, the 300 Experts cah!!”
“AAAAAARGH!!”
The brutal sounds and screams of destruction emanated from everywhere, as this black tide enveloped the sandcastle that was the Strabus detachfried’s Ghosts were inferior in number, they were the ones that perfectly dominated and trampled over their enemy
“What… what is this…”
Duke Brans was shocked senseless
A special unit that was all Experts?
Such a thing had been unheard of
Duke Bran fought against the co tide and even felled a few Ghosts hih to reverse this situation
Even if he himself was able to withstand the attack, Experts were a calahts who had not reached the Expert level
And there were 300 of the that could happen Unless they gathered every single Expert in the Hildess Republic to this one spot, how could…’
Deep in shock, Duke Brans could not co to wait for his
Whoosh!+
A deadly swing cah the air towards him Duke Brans reflexively raised his sword to block it
KLANG!
After their clash, his opponent used his attack’s recoil to bounce back quickly
“Mmm…”
Duke Brans clenched his teeth as his entire lower ar’
He looked at his enerave expression
“Who may you be?”
It was the titan of a o by the name of Jake, Captain of the Ghost Special Corps”
“Ghost? Might you be the captain of these skulls?”
“That is so”
As they conversed, Duke Brans scrupulously observed his adversary
And while he did not let it show on the outside, he was greatly surprised
He had an idea after they exchanged blows, but he did not want to accept the truth
‘This man… surely he’s not a…?’
“Indeed he is a Master”
The one who confirfried, who came up from behind Jake with a cool expression
“No… I won’t believe such a lie-”
“Jake”
“Yes!”
Fsssh!+
With one word, a blade ht to life around Jake’s colossal sword
Duke Brans watched the colorful aura blade, the symbolic technique of Masters, in sheer disbelief
Siegfried smiled
“As you can see, he is a Master as you are”
Duke Brans ground his teeth
“Siegfried…”
“It is an honor that you know of
“Were you always hiding this tru only of Experts, with a Master that has been hidden from the world until now?”
“We have laboriously prepared to hunt the titan that is a ht if I do say so ree?”
“Hht’ Did you fear me so much that you prepared to this extent?”
“It is due to my rather cautious nature”
In the short time that they conversed, the rest of the scene had already been settled
Almost all the soldiers that accompanied Duke Brans on his pursuit had fallen to the blade of a Ghost So back, but they too were only a matter of time
