Chapter 248: Till the Very End (2)
“Hup!”
Without caring about his own life, he charged towards Marquis Catel, heavily exuding Aura
“Die, youthe Ghost Group leader 6 racing towards him, Marquis Catel spoke quietly
“I am…”
And in the next moment…
Swish!+
His body disappeared, leaving only an afteriht stabbed the leader of Ghost 6 precisely in the neck
“Keu…”
The leader of Ghost Group 6 slowly crumpled
Marquis Catel continued to speak to hido fro out as the Ghost Group 6’s leader collapsed
“Waaaahh!!”
“Hooray for Marquis Ryan Catel!!”
“Hooray for the Lester Kingdom!!”
After Marquis Ryan Catel had codom’s army’s morale rose tremendously
“Sir, General McCarthy was killed in action, along with Ghost Groups 6 and 7”
Siegfried’s face contorted when he heard the er’s report
“Who killed General McCarthy?”
“Udom…”
“I already knew that”
As if there was no need for hier Then, he fell into deep thought
‘I had a rough guess as to who the Iron Heldom would be, but he really was Ryan Catel But, did he really have the kind of ability to easily kill off McCarthy? No, nine out of ten times, they’d have most likely killed each other…’
If he was lucky, Marquis Ryan Catel could kill McCarthy But there was no way he could keep up his roups afterwards
‘How did this happen?’
No fried was, it wasn’t possible for him to know that Queen Leila had used Claudia to stick a knife into General McCarthy[1] If Antras was still alive and knew the entire story, he would have been shocked to hear that Queen Leila had used so a war
However, Siegfried didn’t know the inner workings and came to a different conclusion
‘Maybe there are other talented people hidden in the Lester Kingdom’s capital?’
Perhaps it was because he had suffered defeat fried’s thought beca Milton Forrest’s movements?”
“Yes, sir We are”
“Where is he right no er until he arrives?”
“Even if he is hurrying over, it’s expected to take about fifteen days to arrive since he’s bringing a large army with him, sir”
“Then, we’d better assume he’ll be here in ten days”
“Sir?”
“Don’t underestio beyond co convinced his officers, Siegfried quickly calculated in his head Even if Milton Forrest arrived, as long as Siegfried took the capital and captured Milton’s family, then he would have the upper hand If he rushed into it and lost Milton’s fa problem for him
‘I don’t have the kind of person who could easily deal with a er’
The continental landscape was already heavily tilted towards the Lester Kingdoainst the Efried’s last chance And so, in order to take advantage of the opportunity in front of hiain so that he wouldn’t miss it
“One week”
“Sir?”
“In that ti down the capital and achieve our purpose”
Instead of continuing with his difficult plan to knock down the capital walls today, Siegfriedhis li as McCarthy’s death was suspicious, Siegfried couldn’t help but think the eneth that he didn’t know about
Queen Leila’s trick had unexpectedly dealt Siegfried a psychological blow Thanks to that, Siegfried delayed his offensive tactics just a bit But that also ive hi
“Stop them! Don’t let them cross it!”
“Focus your arrows at the base of the wall! Even if you shoot your arroith your eyes closed, you’ll hit thes!”
The Lester Kingdoh
Previously, the infordoher-ups But once it became known, it only helped thethem
Marquis Ryan Catel didn’t have to hide his presence any longer and alking around the walls in an uninhabited manner Thanks to that, they had co the Republican’s attack on the first day
As the sun went down and the Republic’s attacks slowed down, the soldiers on the walls shouted loudly
“The Republicans are retreating!”
“Wahhhh!! We won!”
“Hooray for the Lester Kingdo They were just teh to point that out
The civilian militias who had never experienced combat before were intoxicated by their victory
Queen Leila turned to speak with Duke Palan after the first day’s battle ended
“Fro with military matters, I’ll leave it all in your hands, Duke Palan Your command will hold the same authority as my co to our country’s laws”
“Thank you, Your Majesty”
Truthfully, no one had the guts to go against Duke Palan, but Leila was giving hi over the command of the frontline, she walked elsewhere with her escorts The place she was heading towards was none other than the rear where the wounded soldiers were being treated
“Your… Your Majesty!”
“Why have you come to such a filthy place as this, Your Majesty…”
“Greetings Your Maj… Keugh”
The injured soldiers were greatly shocked and all tried to stand up, but Leila raised her hand and stopped them
“Please, don’t stand Stay as you were”
Then, she spoke to every single one of the after their health and injuries
“Because you all risked your lives fighting, we are able to live to fight another day As the representative of the House of Lester, and as a ruler of this country, I thank you”
Leila bowed her head
“Your… Your Majesty”
“How could you…”
“You’re too gracious, Your Majesty Please stop”
The soldiers felt truly appreciated, yet at the same time, indebted[3] Perhaps the phrase, ‘didn’t knohat to do with themselves,’ washer head to the this, would anyone believe them? As a result of Queen Leila’s charis in life, the soldiers were completely overcome by her
She continued to look at the soldiers as she spoke
“The enemy will continue to attack for a few er”
