Chapter 254: The Return of the King
Siegfried clenched his teeth as he quickly calculated possibilities After all, he was a man who solved his proble on fate to help
‘They used the carriage as bait In that case, where is the real Queen Leila?’
He guessed they would try to trick hi like this Since the capital was under siege, he would eventually find her if he searched thoroughly, but the quickest ould be to make Rick talk
“Keep him alive But he just needs to talk, so do whatever is necessary to find the royal family…”
“Sir!”
At that fried’s side and blocked so towards hifried, a flash of light had flown through the air That flash of light ended up being just an ordinary looking arrow
“This…?”
There was only one person in the whole continent who could do so like this - Trike Low, one of Milton Forrest’s close aides For him to show up here hness, Grand Duke Milton Forrest is back!!”
The ground shook as the soldiers of the Lester Kingdom cheered fro sound was announcing the return of Grand Duke Milton Forrest, the war God of the Lester Kingdofried’s face cruht he would have two more days before Milton Forrest arrived And that was only because he was expecting Milton to arrive quickly However, Milton Forrest arrived even sooner than he had expected
Then, Rick spoke up from beneath his feet
“Hahahah… You’re xxx”
Siegfried felt his temper rise, but at that moment, he didn’t have the time to pay attention to Rick
“For iot Jake and the Ghosts under control as he shouted out his order
Cough
“Tommy? Can you hear this? ”
With his consciousness fading, Rick called out to his friend lying next to hi rapidly colder and didn’t answer, but Rick continued to speak
“It’s all… thanks to you… that Our Lord’s… fah
Rick spat out blood fro with a ser… brother Let’s… be friends… again”
Rick slowly closed his eyes
“My Lord, the gates have already been breached”
“da both land and sea routes, Milton had ates had been still breached
“Run through everything that gets in our way! Charge!”
With Milton at the front, the Southern Knights chased after him Jerome, Violet, Trike, and even Marquis Gotham, who had recently joined the ranks, all followed after hiathered
Froht, spoke up
“My Lord, I see Siegfried”
“Where is he?”
“I’ll let you know right now, sir”
Having said that, Trike concentrated his Aura on his arrow even as his horse continued to gallop forward And then…
Bang!
A flash split the air as he released the arrow Then
“Tsk, he blocked it”
When Trike clicked his tongue, Milton spoke
“It failed?”
“Yes, sir Jake was next to hiht”
Milton clenched his teeth
“Let’s go, Leonard”
Leonard’s eyes flashed red as he galloped forhen Milton hit hi forward at a trefried could finish arranging his troops
“piss off!”
Clang!
Milton’s blow destroyed the Republican soldiers in front of hihts who had followed behind hi Republican troops
“Kill theo!”
Perhaps it was because they had concentrated on destroying the capital after destroying the walls, but the Republican soldiers died before they could even respond
‘It’ll be dangerous at this rate’
Siegfried had thought his enemy would be exhausted, but when he saw that his troops were being unilaterally destroyed, he clenched his teeth
“Ghosts, all of you will take the elixir!”
Siegfried decided to risk it all for his victory
“The for the lead Follow after fried pointed his sword at Milton as he spoke
“Charge!”
“Waaaaahhhh!!!”
“Long live Fuhrer Siegfried!”
It was the best choice he could hten out the Republican Army’s formation It was an elite vs elite soldiers battle
And his goal was…
‘I’ll kill him with this!’
Of course, it was Milton Forrest
“Siegfried…”
When he saw Siegfried charging towards hied towards him as well
“I’ll kill you”
The fact that Siegfried had aimed for his faed
‘I’ to kill hi, the two of them had tried to kill each other, but now, Milton was truly exuding a fried!”
Finally, the distance between the two shortened and they both swung their swords
CLANG!
Milton Forrest, age 34
Siegfried, age 37
Later on, historians would say this was the last battle in the hero’s era when the two young heroes clashed for the last tiical Conflict had killed about half the young men in the entire continent, it was the last war
Of course, eren’t completely stopped However, 300 years later, with the invention of firearms and the disappearance of swords and spears, the ere fought changed greatly In that sense, this here huht with strength and intelligence, was recorded as the last war
The way history judged these two heroes, who had left a big mark behind in history, was varied Soh the era without any foothold had the better ability, while others would say that Milton Forrest, whohis own abilities was the wiser monarch
Who was the better hero? Who was more suited to the ti reht?
The ansas obvious In history, the winner was always right
Cough
Siegfried spat out blood as he felt a burning sensation in his sto sword had stabbed Siegfried’s abdoy in the battle while Milton was in great condition Fronificant difference in Aura between the two of theer, this was the result
Jake and the Ghosts had tried to protect Siegfried but they were stopped by Jerohts and they couldn’t do as they intended
“”
Milton didn’t say anything He just pulled out his sword and stepped back as he stared at Siegfried
“Why… are you… looking at me… like that?”
“Hm… what do you think?”
Milton couldn’t answer hi at a fried He knew that they were coht and personality, and even the way they had grown up… But disregarding all that, he felt like he was looking at another side of hifried
‘Perhaps, that could have been iven it their all as they fought for hegeht or wrong, the only difference between the two of them nohether they were the winner or the loser
Maybe that hy, but Milton couldn’t be happy about defeating his archrival
“Sir!!”
While Milton wasn’t paying attention, Jake shouted as he ran at Milton
“Keugh…”
CLANG!
It was a powerful blow, but Milton blocked the attack In fact, if he considered Jake’s skill, the attack could even be considered light And the only reason for that was…
“Huff… Huff…”
Perhaps he had overdone it in his haste to get to Siegfried? One of Jake’s arms had been cut off and his body was covered in wounds, wounds that weren’t small at all
“I’ot to Milton a beat later Jeroht they were evenly fried seriously injured, he charged forward, enraged, and Jeroht”
Milton didn’t blame Jerome for it In fact, if Jerome couldn’t stop him, then no could
“Sir, let’s escape for now”
Jake quickly fried on his shoulder
“Don’t let them escape!”
Jerohts to encircle Jake But…
“Get out of my way!”
Jake wielded his sword, ale broke through the Lester Kingdohts and 20,000 elite troops
Jerome and Milton tried to chase after him but…
“Block the live Siegfried!”
The re Ghosts hindered their movements and Jerome and Milton couldn’t continue their pursuit The Ghosts, a highly trained and elite force that Siegfried hiest force in the Republic, disappeared fro their master
“Jake… Is that you?”
“Sir, are you awake?”
On top of the galloping horse, Siegfried ed to weakly speak
“Yes… where are we?”
“I’ve abandoned the siege, sir I’ you now”
“Huff… huff huff… In the h
“Sir, please stop talking You need to get treated, urgently”
“Right… as long as… you are… with ain… From the start just the… two of us…”
“Of course, sir If it’s the two of us, we can start all over again”
“Right… yes… and… we’re not… losers… yet…”
“Yes, sir We can start over again”
“”
“Sir… Sir!”
