A heart to give to others
“Did you really intend to kill me?”
“Look.”
To La Hansen’s words, Hyeon-jun calmly replied. In fact, Hyeon-jun was prepared to kill the guards if they pointed their weapons at him again. Because you can’t get along with their doggies. They could make excuses for carrying out their mission, but asking for disarmament even when only a small number of people came in and bought goods according to the request crossed the line.
“But if you really kill it, the situation will be difficult. Do it in moderation.”
“Gunther. From now on, just knock them down and come out. I’m responsible.”
“Ummm… yes, I got it.”
In fact, the real reason is for Gunther and the mercenaries who risked their lives to follow Hyun-joon alone.
As long as they continue to trust and follow Hyeon-Jun, Hyeon-Jun will face any problem and dog-like situation. They have already taken their lives, and Hyeon-jun will pay the price with his blood. This is because Hyun-jun, who has neither money nor land, is the only thing he can do for them.
La Hansen, who had been watching Hyeon-jun silently, said.
“If you fall within the influence of the innovative, you should be cautious.”
“Know.”
“Are you sure you know? Even then, if it’s like this, everything will be nothing.”
“If the innovative group does anything wrong, I will throw away the justification and show my worth with blood and death.”
At Hyeonjun’s calm words, La Hansen closed his mouth and looked ahead. My head is complicated. From his point of view, Hyeon-joon is a man he can’t quite understand.
When dealing with enemies, he fights as if possessed by a ghost, but when he is with his comrades, he looks like an ordinary man. Even if he lacks common sense and shows a lacking appearance, he suddenly changes and creates a picture he wants by taking control of his surroundings with his overwhelming charisma.
Gunther smiled and said to Hyeonjun.
“thanks.”
“If you’re grateful, make sure that doesn’t happen next time. So, you said you should shave? Doesn’t it look messy and look like a thief?”
“Damn it!”
Hyeonjun laughed heartily while arguing with Gunther. All the mercenaries had smiles on their faces. It was because they could see how far Hyun-joon was determined for them.
Hyeon-jun suddenly rode his horse to La Hansen’s side and stroked his hair roughly.
“Something!”
“This kid is very, huh? Isn’t it called sir, isn’t he good at cheating?”
“That’s the situation, so I had no choice but to do it!”
“Oh, did you?”
Lahansen closed his mouth and slammed Hyunjun’s hand. Giggling at Hyeon-jun, he avoided his hand and tousled La Hansen’s hair again.
In the end, when La Hansen started punching with anger, Hyeon-jun smiled and stepped back.
“It’s Dalian from tonight, so prepare yourself.”
“I will take care of it even if you don’t tell me.”
Everyone looked at Lahansen with happy faces as he turned his head and spoke. Hyeon-jun distorted his face as if he was disgusted when he saw the hairy guys laughing wickedly, but when La Hansen looked back, everyone returned to their calm expressions.
“But from tomorrow, it’s the Andech territory. Considering the battle, we can’t do it like now.”
“okay.”
Everyone knows, but La Hansen cautioned again. Even if you know that you are human, it is because you are an animal that makes mistakes and is careless. It’s much better to keep saying this even if it sounds like nagging than to see blood in a bruise.
“We have another week to go to Marquis Benting’s estate. We have to speed up.”
“I’m going to die…”
Gunther grumbled at Lahansen’s words. Even now, it starts moving the moment the sun rises and walks until just before the sun sets. If you increase the speed here, it will be really difficult to handle.
Fortunately, there is a wagon. One wagon belongs entirely to the mercenaries, and the other wagon is loaded with food, but you can ride a little more if you make a seat. Taking turns riding the mercenaries will save you a lot of health.
***
It has already been three days since they entered the Andech territory. Tomorrow, we leave here and enter the Askan estate.
The June & Gunter mercenaries were still moving quickly, avoiding towns and villages, only making brief stops in towns to seek food.
It is also like dividing the number of people and hiding the wagon and some of the people, and only a few people pull the wagon and enter the village. I had no choice but to do it because it was a good thing to go through trouble like the last time because I was accused of being an outlaw.
“It’s not as big as I thought.”
“Maybe the Lucan influence is out of reach, but they might be aiming for the right shot.”
Gunther and Lahansen were talking in front of a campfire.
As time passed, Lahansen’s attitude changed a lot, and he was no longer overbearing or oddly distant. That’s why all the mercenaries are secretly acknowledging him as a member of the group.
Of course, it is not completely accepted. They are still not sure.
“I think it would be better to move at night if possible.”
“I can’t do that. It’s dangerous, but I can’t handle the consumption of my stamina.”
“In two days, we will reach the estate of the Marquis Benting, and the influence of the innovative group will protect us.”
“If there’s an attack in between, I’ll have to fight while not sleeping well.”
“Um… .”
As Lahansen said, it would be nice to march at night, but due to lack of sleep, you will not be able to use your strength in battle.
It was a mistake of La Hansen, who learned various knowledge as a knight’s seed, but had no experience in running in the field.
“Then, how about moving like now and running without stopping when you’re almost out of the Askan territory?”
Hyeonjun, who had just returned from a shower, sat down in front of the campfire and said,
“It’s not bad, but I’m against it. If you don’t rest properly even for a day, you lose a lot of power. Wouldn’t coming under the influence of the Renovationists be no threat at all?”
“It will be safer than staying in Askan territory for a long time.”
The opinions of Gunther and Lahansen were at odds. Both are right, so I can’t raise my hand on either side. Hyunjoon thought for a moment and said.
“For now, we will move as we are now. And depending on the situation in the Askan territory, we will decide whether to march at night.”
“hmm.”
At Hyeonjun’s words, Gunther and Lahansen nodded and retreated.
The June & Gunther Mercenary Corps seems to have three heads because it has two captains and actively accepts the opinion of La Hansen, who was a knight’s squire. However, in reality, Hyeon-jun is the leader, and since there is rarely an argument against his words, when Hyeon-jun coordinates opinions in the middle and makes a decision, they step back neatly from each other.
The only time I throw up at Hyun-joon’s words is when I hear ‘Why can’t I do this?’.
“Let’s go to bed now. So we can move tomorrow.”
At Hyeonjun’s words, everyone prepared well. Hyeonjun also put on his cloak and lay down. Because he and Gunther also go in for the first and last night as well as the middle watch. Gunther was desperate, but as Hyeon-joon decided to stand by himself as the most dog-like dulvern and malvern, Gunther had no choice but to give up the first and malvern.
“Oh, I will hurt myself.”
“I’m worried to see your face hurt.”
“What, man?”
Hearing the mercenaries’ chatter, Hyeon-jun closed his eyes. I wish it would pass without incident.
***
The June & Gunter mercenary group, which bypassed the city of Ascan, was crossing the river.
Hyeon-jun crossed the bridge first in the lead, then kept his head still and only glanced around to look to the side. and said in a low voice.
“Gunter.”
“why?”
“Get the kids ready.”
“okay.”
Gunther, who was driving the horse next to him, slowly slowed down and naturally moved to the side of the carriage.
“Maxim, how much food do you have left?”
From noble mtl dot com
“I bought quite a lot from the village I stopped by last time, so that’s enough.”
“Okay, check properly.”
“yes.”
When Gunther tapped the dagger on his waist, Maxim nodded and gestured to the other mercenaries. Everyone gripped their weapons tightly and took off their helmets in their hands. I didn’t finish arming right away. Because it can be caught by the enemy.
Gunther rode his horse again and approached Hyeon-jun. Hyeonjun just rolled his eyes and looked around, then said.
“Gunther, I’ll leave the command to you.”
“okay.”
The left side of the road is a grassy plain, and the right side is a forest. Hyunjoon narrowed his eyes and took a quick look around. According to common sense, they would be in an ambush in the forest, but somehow it was strange.
“Gunther, I am going to the forest. Block the plain side.”
“Are you okay?”
“okay.”
Hyeonjun took his foot out of the stirrup and measured the timing.
I could definitely feel the presence of his sensitive senses. There are many.
“now.”
“Left defend!”
Hyeon-jun got off his horse and jumped into the forest like a shotgun, and with Gunter’s cry, the mercenaries quickly got off the wagon and took up formation in an instant. The guys who drove the wagon set up the wagon in an exquisite position to block the approaching guys from the forest, and after blocking their backs, they jumped from the driver’s seat and found their place and formed a formation.
“I noticed! Kill!”
When someone shouted from the forest side, people poured out and tried to run towards the mercenaries.
However, Hyeon-jun had already entered the forest and drew his sword.
“Sup.”
Hyeon-joon, who passed by after cutting the head of one, burrowed into the group of enemies without hesitation. The sword that had been erected in the middle seemed to shake slightly, and with minimal movement, he tore their necks, pushed them away with his elbows and shoulders, and stood in the middle of the assailants at once.
“what!”
One guy was frightened by the appearance of Hyeon-jun, who seemed to have suddenly risen from the inside.
Only then did three men fall behind Hyeon-jun and roll on the floor.
Hwareuk!
“Kwaaa!”
Hyeon-joon brushed off his left hand and breathed fire around him, neutralizing the four at once. After that, he turned his body around and at the same time grabbed the long sword with his right hand and swung it from the top.
puck!
The sword blade passed through one of the guys’ necks, and it was swung around, cutting off the other’s helmet-less head.
Hyeon-jun, who broke the skull and twisted his wrist to pull out the stuck sword, grabbed the sword with both hands again and charged. Then he leaped off a tree, twisted in the air, cracking one guy’s head off, kicked the other in the head and landed breaking his neck, then ducked down and spun around, snapping the legs of the others. cut off
“Ah!”
With that single action, the five people surrounding Hyeon-Jun were incapacitated, and the flames spread again, consuming the eyes and lungs of those who Hyeon-Jun’s sword did not reach.
“Eh, run away!”
The survivors gave up any thought of fighting and immediately started running away.
Hyeon-joon burrowed into the group and in less than 10 seconds, more than 15 people died. There was no one who thought like an idiot to fight back.
However, they dispersed and some ran frantically toward the road, hit in the head by longswords, and tumbled across the ground without screaming.
“Suck!”
Lahansen ran out and neatly cut down the guys coming out of the forest. Everyone was so frightened that they couldn’t even pick up a weapon, so all they had to do was kill them.
Lahansen cut them down in one fell swoop and ran into the forest.
“On the other side?”
At that time, Hyeon-jun, who had just come out of the forest, was startled and stopped before speaking.
“finished.”
“Ummm… he was just a thief.”
Hyeonjun swung his sword around and wiped away the blood.
Lahansen’s fingertips trembled at the thrill that ran up his spine. Hyeon-jun had a little blood on his sword, and there was no trace of anything on his body except for the blood on his hands.
However, more than twenty corpses are lying behind him.
‘To think I rushed to fight a guy like this.’
On the flat side, the battle did not even take place properly. A few of them who had been lying down jumped up and rushed at them, but after seeing the mercenaries in formation, they realized that stealing was bad, so they immediately became nice and made a U-turn and ran away.
It didn’t take long for Lahansen to turn around and enter the forest after seeing this, but the battle in the forest was also over. No, it would be safe to say that the battle did not take place like them. I don’t know if it’s a massacre.
“Let’s start by tidying up.”
Rahansen, who suddenly came to his senses at Hyeonjun’s words, nodded and walked back to the carriage.
And the mercenaries who were about to enter the forest in formation found them and stopped.
“Let’s sort it out.”
“Whoa… I’m going to die of annoyance.”
Gunther groaned and lowered his weapon. They have no combat, so there’s no maintenance, but it takes time to collect loot from corpses and get the wagons moving again.
“Don’t search too far. They’re thieves anyway, so there’s not much to take care of.”
“If I have time, I search the base thoroughly.”
The mercenaries smacked their lips and rummaged through the corpses. After wiping off the blood on his body, Hyeonjun even oiled the sword and finished the maintenance. No matter how much magic is used to keep it in the best condition, it is always managed neatly like this.
“Hey! This guy has a silver necklace and a silver ring too!”
When someone flirted and shouted, everyone rushed there.
“Take it off.”
“You bastard put something in your pants.”
Leaving behind the naked corpse at once, the mercenaries brushed off even their panties. The mercenaries who had obtained one silver necklace, one silver ring, and even three silver coins giggled and took them.
“Looking at how he was giving orders, he must have been the captain.”
Hyeon-jun, who killed him, was also not sure. It’s because it killed me so quickly.
“Let’s leave soon.”
Hyeonjun grinned and slapped him on the back as Lahansen hardened his face a little.
“You’ll have to get used to it.”
“hmm.”
It must have felt very uncomfortable for La Hansen, who grew up living in an aristocratic family and heard about things like honor and whatnot.
But I wasn’t stupid enough to say it, so I stayed quiet.
