< Lancephil Legion >
The identity of the grand legion was the Lancephil Legion who defeated the Mad Monarch Sifort Castle
“Could he really have captured it, sir?”
Harrison approached Roan’s side
Roan, who stood and led the grand legion at the lead looked towards the west
“If it is Ian, he would have done it”
A voice full of certainty
Harrison, with an expression finding it hard to believe, repeatedly asked
“With merely one thousand detached troop, sir?”
One thousand soldiers with Austin and Brian at the head were all the soldiers Ian Phillips took along to capture the Longfort Castle
Even though they all were taefort Castle was one of the doion scale, it wasn’t a place easy to capture
Furtherfort Castle
Capture the fortress afort Castle, with one thousand soldiers?
It was so hard to believe from Harrison’s position
Roan stared at such Harrison and formed a faint smile
“If it is Ian, he would have captured it with even five hundred soldiers”
He aze and looked towards the west
The western end unobservable even with the Kalian’s Tears
The Longfort Castle was there
Roan’s gaze followed this tie that conspicuously situated between the grand legion
On the carriage, a rather neatlywas planted
< Katy Rinse >
Roan, for the bloodline of the royalty and the tragic princess Katy, prepared a save an order to Pierce to protect its side
‘The pretext is important too, but……’
Roan’s such appearance could still pull out the favorable supports of the nued loyalty to the Rinse Kingdom
This was the very appearance that was different than Kalludoain turned his head and stared towards the west
‘Now the Rinse Kingdom is over’
The First Prince, no, Simon who climbed onto the throne on his own and the Second Prince Tommy Rinse lost their lives
The firstborn of Duke Bradley Webster who died to Simon in that process, Barry Webster founded the North Rinse Kingdoether with Clay
The Third Prince Kallust the three princes too allied with the Diez Kingdododom was Roan Lancephil
‘The one who caldoms becomes the owner’
The situation flowed like so
‘No, saying I made the path for it to floould be correct’
The nuo were finally connecting and producing results
‘The board is set’
Noas the ti breath and spurred his horse
The speed of the legion’s travel increased a level
The Lancephil Legion’s travel continued for two days
After crossing a sfort Castle that was the goal showed its grand and sturdy form
“I’ve heard that it was a fortress but this really is anable fort”
The thousand-ues
Unlike fort Castle was a castle built from the start as a fortress
A military outpost to stop the powerful monsters that climbed down frofort Castle
Roan quietly stared at the loftily rising fortress
Through the Kalian’s Tears, the castle far aas seen big as if it was before his nose
Suddenly, the tips of histhe castle wall
< Lancephil Legion >
The Legion flag fluttered the highest
< Piedes Troop >
The flags of Piedes Troop Austin led
< Vende Troop >
And the Vende Troop Brian led aving together
Roan pulled his reins and spurred his horse
The coside shouted with startled expressions
“M, my lord Let us send a scout first”
“We don’t knohat the situation is like It’s dangerous, sir”
Roan faintly smiled at those words and answered shortly
“There is no need to worry”
A composed but powerful and relaxed voice
The thousand-man rank and above commanders spurred their horses with uncertain expressions
They instantly arrived before the Longfort Castle’s East Gate
“Ah……”
Quiet exclamations flowed out from commanders as well as even ordinary soldiers
A widely opened castle gate and the castle here Lancephil Legion flag fluttered
“The fortress afort Castle was truly be captured in merely ten days……”
Incredulous sounds flowed out froazes naturally turned towards the threeneatly before the East Gate
Austin, Brian, and Ian
They, with stiffly solidified expressions, bowed towards Roan
Those simply weren’t expressions of victors who captured a castle
Roan climbed down from his horse and approached towards the words
Austin answered shortly with his back still bowed
“We have captured the castle but lost the head of the enemy army, sir”
The head of the enemy army meant Hex Master Hesul
Brian added on
“We infiltrated the Longfort Castle disguised as nearby residents ere kidnapped as ingredients for the hex dolls following Ian Phillips’ plan, sir To instantly subdue the enemy army’s heart, we revolted and massacred numerous hexers at the scene where the hex was performed But in that process, the enemy leader used a mysterious hex and disappeared, sir”
Roan who had quietly listened slightly nodded his head
‘He encies’
The instant-teleport spell, as one of the highest-level hex spells that even Roan couldn’t use, was a hex that even the master Hesul too had to use all of divine poithin his body to perform
“I’m sorry, sir We couldn’t perfectly carry out the mission”
It was Ian’s voice
Roan quietly stared at Austin, Brian, and Ian ere still bowing and soon foruilty”
He personally extended his hands and made the three azes fort Castle alone is an incredible feat Proudly open your shoulders”
“My lord”
Austin, Brian, and Ian lowered their heads with complicated expressions
Roan faintly smiled and tapped their shoulders
“Now is not the time to be down like that There still is a mountain of work left to do”
At those words, Harrison walked up and slightly lowered his head
“We have defeated all of the Legion of Dark, but there still is one thing left, sirs”
The instant his words fell, Austin, Brian, and Ian let out quiet exclamations
“Grain Mountains’ monsters”
Roan slowly nodded his head
“Following Hesul’s hex, order, or perhaps contract, the Grain Mountains’ riotous fort Castle”
The Grain Mountains’ inally, they were Hesul’s aion of Dark reatly defeated by thesethe wildly and violently charging legion ofcompletely absent-minded from the hex dolls wasn’t an easy task
‘But this time is different’
A situation where the Mad Monarch Siion of Dark had already been defeated and the hexers too were all massacred
Furtherfort Castle claist fortresses
Roan looked straight at Austin, Brian, and Ian
“If you truly feel so bothered, then raise a ation battle”
He looked back and shouted towards the Lancephil Legion’s soldiers
“We are now going to le creature pass over the Longfort Castle!”
The voice hit not the ears but the heart
“Our land, our fahtly clenched his fist and raised it high above his head
“We will protect them with our hands!”
The instant his words ended, the legion’s soldiers exploded out in cheer
“Waaaaah!”
“Protect with our own hands!”
All raised their fists up high
Roan sht and then turned his head once aze headed towards Austin, Brian, and Ian
The faces that were floating cohtly flushed
A spirit as if they would immediately rush to the battlefield was felt
The s on Roan’s mouth deepened further
“Yes That is the expression I want”
He pulled out the Travias Spear at his waist
“There still is much we must do There is no such time to lower our heads and stare at our feet”
His voice slowly turned louder
“Raise your heads Raise your heads and look straight at the world At that place……”
Chang!
With a metallic sound, the Travias Spear’s blade appeared
“Is the path we o”
The moment his words ended, Austin, Brian, and Ian as well as Harrison and the numerous commanders at the side saluted
“Yes sir!”
Resounding voices hit the ears
Roan proudly smiled and sent out the necessary orders and missions to each rank’s commanders
First, he fort Castle and left a portion of taemusas as escort force
At the same time, he made temporary shelter between the inner and outer castle and tookthe fort Castle, Roan and the Lancephil Legion’s elite soldiers once again advanced west, towards the Grain Mountains
Roan, the moment they arrived at the hills where the Grain Mountains were visible far away, set up caathered the commanders
“Ian”
“Yes My lord”
Ian as seated at the farthest seat stood up from his seat
Roan tapped the table with a tip of his finger, then spoke in a coive this battle’s command to you”
“Eh?”
Ian asked back with a slightly startled expression
Roan, without ht now is a quick and complete victory What would you do?”
“Tha, that is……”
