Chapter 254: Path of a King (2)

<hr>

‘It doesn’t even reach one thousand’

Mills Voisa, with a pale face, exhaled a long sigh

They received an unexpected attack at the Sedes Castle and lost thousands of soldiers

And the retreat of suffering that followed

In that process, the soldiers who suffered big and small wounds died or fell behind

In the end, the nu Mills’s back did not reach one thousand

A wretched and horrid situation

But even whilst that, there was a point that was good

‘There is no pursuit force’

Mills tightly clenched his teeth

‘A little more, let’s endure just a little doht reached about that point

Sswaeeeeck!

A sharp shriek of air struck his ears

Pbububuck! Pbubuck!

Following that and together with chilling sounds, the commanders and soldiers who followed his sides fell

“Huhph!”

Mills crouched his body with a greatly shocked expression

‘damn it!’

Curses naturally pushed up

The commanders and soldiers all died with arrows struck on the center of their foreheads

‘Perfect accuracy’

It was just a single shot

A soldier fell per a single arrow shot

‘A sickening archery skill like this……’

It simply couldn’t be seen as a human’s skill

“Counter! Counter!”

“Raise the shi+elds!”

“Shoot the arrows!”

The surviving coave out vain orders

A final struggle

Pbububuck! Pbubuck! Pbubuck!

Even during that time, the arrows endlessly poured down

The arrows, as if they had eyes, perfectly pierced the knights and soldiers’ foreheads

After who kne long

“……”

His surrounding becaer heard

Sie also weren’t heard

“Ah……”

Mills let out a long sigh

A despondent look was clear on his face

‘Everyone is dead……’

The one that survived was only himself

‘da his body kicked off the ground and juht e and shame, he lost his sanity

At that ain a sharp shriek of the air pierced into his ears

“Hph!”

Mills who had gotten coht of dodging

Puuck!

The arrow exactly pierced the tip of his hel!

A dull sound echoed as the iron helround

Gulp

Mills dryly sed and brushed with his right hand the top of his head

There was not one injured spot

It had precisely taken off just the hel archery skill

“Uuuuh”

In the end, Mills powerlessly fell onto his knees

It was theended

He stared at the hills with a blank gaze

Soon, the owners of the ghostly archery skills showed themselves above it

Hundreds of archers who deeply wore robes over their faces

They, carrying across their backs arrows far longer than their bodies, casually walked up

“Who, who are you……? Are you people Roan Lancephil sent?”

Mills asked with a powerless voice

At that moment, the archer as farthest up front took off the robe she had deeply worn

“Ah……”

Mills let out a quiet exclamation

The archer was a woman he too kneell of

“Princess Aily……?”

Mills roundly opened his eyes

‘But she hid her trails after her key action in the Capture of Miller……’

That her had suddenly appeared in the kingdoion

Aily made a faint s”

It was a gentle and soft voice, but he felt a power that couldn’t be carelessly treated It wasn’t comparable to Roan’s, but she too naturally exuded the aura of monarch as the queen of the elves

“Had Roan Lancephil saw this far down, princess?”

Mills shook his head with a resigned look

He raised his head and looked straight at Aily’s eyes

“Then the Byron Kingdodohtly nodded her head at those words in place of an answer

“Huu”

Mills couldn’t hold it in and spat out a long sigh

He

“Will you cut off my head, princess?”

A crestfallen voice

Aily still faintly smiled and shook her head

“No Your life will be used at a far more important place”

“By important place……?”

Mills tilted his head with a puzzled look

Aily, in a very small voice, answered as if to whisper

“We……”

Her eyes twinkled and shone a light

“Plan to trade with the Holy Palace”

“We can see the Miller Castle, sir”

The coachhtly exhausted voice

“I hope we aren’t too late”

The fief lord of the Neike Region located in the Rinse Kingdom’s Midwest, Baron Valent Neike tapped his knee with a restless face

“We hurried here, so ill be fine”

Baron Victor Beuriting, who sat on the opposite side, laboriously sh his words spoke so, he too overfloith an anxious look

“To think Sir Duke Francis Wilson who hid his appearance had the royal fa turn of events”

At Valent’s words, Victor bitterly smiled and nodded his head

“You said it”

The inside of their heads were complicated

The nobles who didn’t answer even at the Grand Commander, Roan Lancephil’sholed up in their fiefs bleached pale with shock at the news that the Lancephil Fief Regidom and even the Estia Empire

They hadn’t incautiously added in their strengths because they had thought that even for Roan this time at the least wouldn’t be easy, but instead they had ended up getting pushed out froy decision

Because they too had eyes and ears, they kneell that the rumors Roan would cli, or as the next queen’s husband was circulating between the kingdom’s citizens

‘If so, then us who didn’t answer at the mobilization order and didn’t provide support will be pushed out of his eyes’

‘Even if Count Roan Lancephil does not push us out, those who fought with hi obvious’

In the end, it was an outcoes of political power

‘I was planning to line up at Count Lancephil belatedly at the least, but……’

At that very moment, a neas delivered from the capital, Miller

A letter sent to the entire kingdom’s nobles

The sender was none other than Duke Francis Wilson

[The Rinse Kingdom’s disorder has been settled Until now, I, Francis Wilson has kept safe the royal family’s crest and the national seal by the order of late hisDeni Von Rinse Now I plan to follow the late king’s will and make the suited person continue the crown I would be thankful if the kingdom’s nobles come to the capital, Miller, and join do, but its content was sidom nobles’ Grand Conference

Valent stared at Victor and for the next king with our hands in this grand conference, right?”

“Right And that is e are hurrying there like this”

Victor readily nodded his head

The reason the two people hurried to the capital, Miller, the moment they received the letter

They had to raise to the throne the one rand conference

In that case, they planned to raise the one who could guarantee their current wealth and power, no, the one who could give them evenfroht as Valent and Victor

By the news, they said tens of nobles had already gathered at the capital, Miller

‘They are all those who didn’t join in Roan Lancephil’s camp and watched the situation’

In short, they were the ones who did not look after sodom’s citizens to protect their wealth and power

Their thoughts deepened

‘Let’s avoid just Roan Lancephil’

The two people looked at each other and nodded their heads

At thatthe Miller Castle, sirs”

The coachman’s voice was heard

“Oh! Finally……”

“It is the first visit since the war began”

The two people opened the carriage’s ith slightly elated looks

To the nobles, thethe capital, Miller, held was special

There also were cases where having a oal and purpose in life

“Hhm”

“Hm?”

Valent and Victor who spiritedly opened thesoon let out a groan

Even on the faces where the elated looks were clear, a dark light settled

Countless residents of the castle were lined up on the street spread outside the carriage

The problem was that their expressions were heavy and cold like cluhts in their eyes were fierce

Gulp

The two people unconsciously gulped dryly

There was not once when ordinary commoners dared openly showed animosity like this

At that an was unknown, but a s flowed out

“Booooooo”

“Booooooo”

The sound of booing spread like wildfire

“Wha, what?”

“Ha, have these bastards gone lared at the castle’s residents on the street
