80 Twenty-six. It only came out after it collapsed (2) (1/2)
400 years ago, I sowed so many seeds that humans could settle in this harsh land.
He handed over the finest manna hearts to those with the finest qualities, and the finest manna hearts to those who did not.
And they grew better than I expected.
It was they who opened the way for the monsters to reach the Mine Dragon, and it was they who defeated the Empire's army who were aiming for the kingdom of Hositam many times.
I was able to sleep without worrying about them.
But there wasn't.
I woke up in 400 years and there was no one left.
That's why I thought it all went down. I knew that all those who served Muhamun Shi in front of Manah in the ring were dead and left no trace.
I thought it was completely ruined.
“But it wasn't. ”
Their progeny have come to the fortress.
* *
When I reached the quarry in front of the gate, I stopped walking without even knowing.
There were soldiers gathered in the furnace to light the fire.
The number of Northerners who realized that the lords could no longer protect themselves increased. They were one of them, too.
And there was a pair of men and women in it who stopped my steps.
Hangouts are humiliating and armed. Even though it is mixed between volunteers who are like a corpse, it is not as bad as a disgrace.
Nevertheless, I was convinced that they were descendants of the old knights who disappeared. I didn't have to use my powers to check.
They have a very familiar and longing fragrance.
“Loyalty!”
The Ranger who discovered me late raised the throne with a heist move.
He was close to me.
Often on patrol missions together, it was now one of the long-standing rangers.
“It's cold, but what are you doing here? ”
“I'm watching. ”
“The Count has been looking for you. ”
“Are they volunteers? Don't worry about me. Do your job. ”
When I turn my back, the Ranger smiles with a grumpy face.
But just a moment later, Ranger began to dash his enlisted candidates with a wolf-like face.
“He who can't stand this cold can't even climb the wall! And a soldier who can't climb the wall doesn't need to be in this castle!”
The enlisted candidates only looked at the blind ranger.
“They're dark as horses. Get some fire and stand in front of me! ”
How does that make sense? It was an absurd sanitary home.
But instead of going elsewhere, I was unable to take up and sit down instead of the candidates lining up in front of the Huddak Rangers.
Then I casually watched the screening.
“Drop! Next! ”
“Fall out!”
The enlistment was so cold that I wanted to go through it. I didn't even ask for a name. If I just wanted to check my talents and organs, I dropped them off without a chance.
It was somewhat harsh, but it was not understandable.
In quantitative terms, Baleard's troops have expanded above pre-war levels with Warlord. Increasing troops could no longer be dealt with by Balahard's finances.
Though the lords of the Middle East have a great reward, it was time to refine it rather than recruit more troops later.
There was no reason to accept him as a soldier unless he really had extraordinary talent.
It is unfortunate that only those who came to become soldiers from afar are aware of such circumstances.
Thanks to you, I could save time.
“Next!”
It was the turn of men and women that I had seen with less strings. The first one was on the man's side.
Now the ranger jaws with a face that even says it's annoying.
A man grabbed the spear.
“Hap!”
The scent of dark Mana spreads everywhere with a grand blend.
I drank the scent of the dark manna.
Ooooooooooooooooo.
The window shivers and shines finely.
The ranger who was looking at the screening with his big face stiffens.
“Gi, were you a knight? ”
The man shakes his head and introduces himself as a drifting mercenary.
The same applies to knights or mercenaries who know how to use Aurora.
A ranger who doesn't know what the opponent is capable of. He looks at me with a sob look.
”Name.”
I stood up robbing my ass and asked him for a name.
“Gallahan.”
The man replied in an arrogant tone.
“I know who he is...”
I touched the Ranger who was about to leave behind. In my words, the ranger shuts his mouth with a hiccup of anger.
“What's your last name?”
In response to my question, a man named Gallahan shook his head.
“There is no surname because it is plain. ”
For now, it was the engineering team that made sure the Ranger's warning worked. But the tone is not arrogant.
I felt confident in my skills.
Besides, it's a lie.
Gallahan said he was ordinary. That wasn't the truth.
Others may have known, but I knew.
In the past, I have handed over an award-winning Mana Heart to twelve highly qualified knights.
He sent five of them to the southern border as shields to stop the Empire's army, and seven of them were sent to the north as swords to cut off the monster army.
The shield was called the ”Silver Lion” and the Black Lion was called the ”Blood Lion”.
Until now, the Gift Lion remained the honorable name given to the swordsmen who weaved the four rings, but the name of the Blood Lion remained untraceable.
The man before his eyes must have been the one who drew the blood of the seven lost blood.
I used my powers to check Gallahan's status window.
aptitudes and traits as expected.
I ordered Gallahan to stand by once.
“I'll do the next screening. ”
In my words, the Ranger bows and retreats. As I looked, the woman who was with the man came forward with a long bow that was as tall as mine.
“This is Boris. No last name. ”
It was a lie, and I knew the truth.
This time, it was not necessary to check the characteristics of Mana. The big longbow she was holding was something I'm familiar with.
It had no appearance, but it was used by a blood lion called the Divine Palace.
The dizzy knights shouted straight through the bow of the Shrine, where they could not pull the protest, and I saw her pull the protest to the end.
Boris, who was just about to protest, looked at me with a frowny face.
“What's the problem? ”
She didn't answer. But the fact that he passed the examination before he even showed any skill was an unfortunate face.
