Chapter 120: Trap (1) (2/2)
“We’re still alive, My Lord! You and hts are also still alive They’re all waiting for your orders, sir Quickly, My Lord! Please give us an order!”
At Jeroradually becaauntlets on his cheeks The expression on Jero desperately around them to keep them safe All of this was real
“Hooooooo… Whoooooo…”
Milton breathed in deeply, then exhaled
‘That’s right I’ive up’
It was a crisis It was a big crisis Because of the enemy’s trick, he had been coer he, as the coe there would be to his o back to the basics and think this through What is the biggest probleht noas that there was no way out The only way out was completely blocked by the eneh the eneh the eneave out orders
“Jerome!”
“Yes, My Lord!”
“You and I, and the rest of the Knights will block the Republican Arate We have to buy some time”
“Yes, sir!”
“The others will spread out Have theh it There willoutside, but they h thehts moved quickly at Milton’s command They hustled the confused soldiers to carry out Milton’s orders
‘It orth training the situation, that the army was able to function effectively was evidence that the men were all well trained elite soldiers In that case, there was still hope left If Milton and Jeroh the Eastern Gate, while the rest found and escaped through another route, then the Republican Army wouldn’t be able to focus their blockade in one location Once that happens, Milton and the ht process
He kneasn’t going to be easy Even if everything worked out, it was most likely there would be a lot of casualties However, in order to not let go of their only hope, there was no other choice but to try, no matter what In order to do so, Milton decided to use one of his trump cards
“Jeroive it your all”
Jerome asked for confirmation with a serious look on his face
“Are you sure, My Lord? This war…”
“It isn’t our war But, we need your strength to turn the current situation around”
“Understood, sir”
Jerome nodded solemnly He then ran out to the front and shouted
“I am Jerome Taker! Come out if you want to die!”
As if to fulfill Jero their skeletal ar from their swords, it seest them, there were two that see an interher auras
“Sir Taker!”
“It’s dangerous Back…”
The other Knights shouted out in shock at his actions But Milton just mumbled calmly
“Show me”
The next moment…
“Ahhh!!”
CLANGG!!
Jero his sword horizontally and defeated all five Ghosts Two out of the five immediately died while the other three were severely injured and spat out blood Having defeated five Ghosts with a single blow, Jerome shouted confidently from the front
“I will turn all of you into skeletons today
Jerome’s sword exuded a clear Aura Blade, the symbol of a Master
“M… Master?”
“Sir Taker is a Master?”
“Oh… Ohhhh!!”
“Woah!!”
The soldiers shouted thehed and muttered to hith a secret if possible”
Then, Milton checked Jeroain
[Jeroth — 93Command — 80
Intellect — 42 Politics — 25
Special Traits — Valiant, Breakthrough, Cool-Headed, Unity
Valiant LV 7: Increases combat power in battle and increases the h LV 8: Lead a troop of cavalry to penetrate straight through the eneoes up as the level rises
Cool-Headed LV 5: Allows one to see the entirety of the battlefield in combat Able to put allied troops in favorable situations while working as a flexible field commander
Unity LV 3: Coerous situation Able to cope well against situations like aht attacks
Except for Politics, all of Jeroth stat of 93 meant that Jerome had risen to the level of Master for some time now To be more precise, it had been a year since Jerome became a Master Milton wasn’t surprised Jerorowth, Milton rather expected this result In fact, he was ed even after Jerohts’ whose Loyalty Stat fell a bit after they became a Master, no, even when they just became an Expert This was because they felt that as their abilities increased, the way they were treated should also appropriately increase In fact, there were Knights itched their loyalty to a different Lord if their current Lord didn’t adequately satisfy their greed; in sohts itched countries entirely
However, even after achieving the status of a Master, Jerome’s Loyalty Stat didn’t shake even a little bit Milton couldn’t help but ad loyalty And because he greatly trusted Jerome, Milton asked a somewhat unreasonable request from him
Milton had asked him to hide his status It was a request that could be considered beyond unreasonable -it was a cruel request Any Knight wished for honor and the status of a Master was the highest honor possible for a Knight There was no way Jerohtly or make his name known by all
However, Milton had asked Jerome to hide his status and made it a trump card instead When Jerome heard Milton’s request, Jeroreed At that tietic at the same time, Milton had said to Jerome,
[I don’t deserve you, Jeroible reward, Jeroone up even ht
