Chapter 285: Kang Chul-In, the One-Man Army! (2)
Meanwhile, in the Chamonix Mountains’ Itaracia Fortress
“A blitz tactic… advancing our army rapidly is the only solution”
Lee Ji-Tae arrived at the best conclusion he could at the naller!”
“Yes, commander-in-chief!”
“Send an order to the main force to head east”
“Yes, sir!”
Lee Ji-Tae had yet to conquer Zolushka completely, but he had no intention to dilly-dallyTime was preciousAtal Ramanujan’s soldiers were poorly trained, and supplies were running lowHe couldn’t afford to drag the war on any further
Zolushka, Iota, Gothika, and Shen… if we conquer these four territories and clai land and mines, ill still be able to sustain the military expenses, albeit not by much
However, he also didn’t want to cut off more than he could chewIf he could conquer Shen, which possessed fertile lands along the Khartoum river, Atal Ramanujan’s financial outlook would be much betterIn addition, Lee Ji-Tae could for the borders of Iota, Gothika and Shen
I have to be carefulBoth Valhalla and Gullveig are fighting for supreence of a third superpower
Lee Ji-Tae had a sharp intuitionHe kne to see the big picture
Silently… let’s conquer the Shen territory and then stay lowWe have to increase our strength
A perfect strategyWell, almost perfect at leastLee Ji-Tae had failed to take into account a huge variable called Kang Chul-InHis strategies were bound to go amiss
Why was that? It was because the deal between Kang Chul-In and Lily Sephardi was soenius like Lee Ji-Tae couldn’t possibly predict
“Lord Lily Sephardi, you protect the Lord’s hall”
Kang Chul-In spoke
“Don’t step a single step out of this land”
“Yes, oppa!”
At that moment, Rooibos suddenly interrupted
“H-However, Your Majesty! Her Majesty Lily has already lost all her soldiersThe two of us can’t defend the hall alone”
“It’s not just the two of you”
“What? Are the reinforcements…?”
“Not yet”
“I can’t comprehend Your Majesty’s intentions at all”
In the end, Roobios gave up trying to understand Kang Chul-InThatthe latter dumbfounded at every step
“Co Chul-In roared
Sssssss!
The spectre knights revealed the on the backs of their phantom steeds, they were known as the spectre cavalry
“Wow… t-these high-class undead monsters!”
“They will protect you twoNow, Atal Ramanujan’s weak soldiers will never penetrate the Lord’s hall”
“T-That’s right!”
“Well then, focus on protecting yourof the West!”
Rooibos bowed
“Also”
Kang Chul-In turned around to face Lily
“Just to reiterate, don’t ever leave the Lord’s hall”
“Okay!”
“You knohat I mean?”
“If a Lord… abandons the Lord’s hall… he or she doesn’t deserve to be one”
“Ok, as long as you understand that”
Kang Chul-In noddedA Lord must never leave the heart of the territoryWhoever did had to suffer the wrath of his or her people, not to mention the loss of authorityA classic example could be found in Korea’s history books, in which a nation’s king fled to another country during a barbarian invasionHe was then criticized for generations and more to co Chul-In turned his back
“A-Are you going alone?”
“Certainly not”
“W-Who else?”
“Two more people”
“”
“That’sChul-In had brought Nilus and Ki just in case
Let’s hope there are many potions in my inventory
Of course, he still had to rely on sos to reduce the potential strain on his body
“Nilus!”
“Yes, Your Majesty?”
“Reinforce this building’s durability!”
“Certainly, Your Majesty!”
Nilus chanted a spell which caused Zolushka’s inner castle to radiate a brilliant silver light
“How’s the durability now?”
Kang Chul-In asked
“With this spell, this infrastructure could even withstand Hecate’s bombardment!”
Nilus promised with confidence
“Excellent”
“Haha! I’m flattered, Your Majesty! It was only possible due to the sh to last until the reinforce as you are happy, Your Majesty!”
Nilus didn’t like being in charge of the bohted to be su-Hee!”
“Yes, Your Majesty?”
Once known as a chaebol fa-Hee kneeled in front of Kang Chul-In with respect
“Shohat you are capable of”
“I will do you proud, Your Majesty!”
“Yes, take this opportunity to upsize your troops too”
“Certainly!”
Ki too few soldiers
Although she had upsized her ar the battle at Deathwin, it was still not powerful enough
“Nilus, the Royal chief -Hee, the commander of the first unit of the I Chul-In commanded
