Vol 14 Chapter 268 (2/2)
Seeing the eneht hisno fear even when the gunshots rang out However…
“W-what happened!?”
The knights at the front were sent flying backwards A spray of blood rose, and the horse collapsed thrashi+ng about There was a possibility the gunshot startled thee
The count urged his own steed to ju behind hiround when their horses legs tripped up
“Count!”
One of the young knights ent up front had his chest shot through alongside the bang His ar him backwards
“Kuh! We have a chance of victory if we can approach! Attack without hesitation! Send attacks from our side!”
Unable to turn and run at this point, the knights capable of ic fired shots at the ene, and blades of wind assailed thee shi+elds in both hands had iround Behind theuns
When the olems, it raised an explosion, but even if their surfaces were dao as far as to reach the soldiers behind them
The Count looked upon the scene
“… You e help of the Walt House!”
It wasn’t a tactic that had never been used It wasn’t as if there weren’t any other oleht out But on a financial and production front, there were too many problems that they were never fully actualized
Both eneic, and as it was blocked, he heard an incessant streaht beside him
“There’s no longer any victory But I won’t be their prisoner!”
On the Count’s words, the knight nodded
“I shall accompany you”
And the horse he road leapt over the gole its master into enemy lines
Behind hiole the with the men of iron
And nearby a conspicuously shaped golem, they could see what looked to be the enehts around hiement from those, the Count held up his sword
“This war is my loss But I won’t let it end with that!”
At the very least, bringing hihtly-armored man with a spar beside the an to gather and take the shape of armor
“It couldn’t be… Maksim Danhel!!?”
A faht of Bahnseim By the rumors, his whereabouts were unknown, but as to think they would find him here
The Count’s right hand knight rushed at Maksim When he cut at Maksi him down from his horse, he had to discard it and pull his sword
“Your enemy is me!”
“Very well”
As the two of the the sabre-like weapon at his waist, the ene members to step back
(The same sort of weapon as the current head But like hell I’ll fall short in close combat!)
Whatever the case, they were surrounded, so he would be captured afterwards From the Count’s point of view, the question hether he could take Lyle’s head or not He thought it would e difference in how he evaluated himself from the world beyond
But seeing his enemy so unflustered under this situation, he felt a bit uneasy
When he swung his large sword at Lyle, it was turned aside by his thin and slender blade
“You’ve got a nice weapon! But…!”
The Count let go of the reigns, and prepared ic, but there were no absolutes in war For that sake, he had polished just a single ic as a trump card Perhaps because of that, the Skill he ic-specialized Rearguard Skill
Turning that left hand towards Lyle, a large fireball appeared on its palside his left arround, and scattered flauishi+ng the flames, the Count looked down at his hands
His left hand was no longer there
“… My aric Tool, you know You cut it?”
Giving a sigh, the Count looked at Lyle floating in the air, and pointing his sword his way, and laughed
“As expected, the Walt House is a gathering of monsters!”
The Count received Lyle’s attack and rolled along the ground He watched the sight of his own body straddling his horse as his consciousness grew faint…

Maksiht who’d cut in alongside the Count
In the chest… a single stab to the heart, and the foe spat blood frorip on his spear
“… I’ve heard his name before A Support who had a Skill to overlook his surroundings or so Known as the Count’s right-hand man”
As Maksihts that breached through were taken out by we laying in wait
The eneolems with shi+elds, and with the loss of their co, but Aria’s force had already surrounded them, so there was nowhere for them to run
The Count’s headless body fell from its horse
When I looked at the Katana, it was sticky with blood Novem approached me in worry, but I couldn’t take my eyes off the Count
“Hey, as he s?”
Unable to understand why he laughed to his death, and as I rasped my arm
“It ht A warrior, I’m sure Lyle-sa unrest to your surroundings”
“… You’re right”
I couldn’t understand hih
『You may not be able to understand it Lyle, but there are those sorts of people out there The sorts who’ll die if they don’t fight The sorts that love war to death They’re out there I tell you!』
Is it really no good not to fight if you don’t have to fight? I confirmed the battlefield with the Skills And I confir around
“… That’s fine With this, Bahnseiive an accurate measure of our scale”
In regards to my failure to understand, the Fifth called over
『If looked at as individuals, there are those you’ll think favorably of But I wonder what it is… there are people who seek battlefields It’s different froo wild They just want to fight, want to enjoy fighting In the Walt House, that trend was strong in the First, right?』
I don’t want to think the First was that sort of person But I could picture hi foe
Milleia-san spoke to me
『Lyle, reht processes you won’t be able to understand And to look at it the other way, there are people on’t be able to understand us You cannot deny them Because it’s a fact』
After shaking my head, I looked forward But the Seventh…
『Looked on froerent ourselves Well, I doubt I sh』
