270. Reunion
Woo-du-du-du-du-du!
It was like a kind of drum sound announcing the advance. A noise that shows off one’s presence while also intimidating the other party.
As the blood demons began to rush in at once, the trembling ground made everyone above nervous.
The knights’ jousting charge.
Darius felt exactly the same way as he watched the hunters rushing in.
“Move behind the barrier! “Defend the fence at all costs!”
At Darius’s shout, the soldiers move in unison. All you have to do is rely on the wooden fence you have built up and block the opponent’s charge just once.
Even though the Blood Demon is a threatening entity that is closer to a magical beast than other war horses, in the end, a horse is a horse.
If you do not break through once you rush in, you will just flounder and die from the spear coming from below.
“Get down! “Arrows are flying!”
There were some who, perhaps because they were hunters, shot arrows from the top of blood horses, and their accuracy was quite high, but they were also blocked by wooden fences, so they did not cause much damage.
A man with dull blond hair holding a spear at the forefront of the rushing hunters.

The way his hair was pulled back and reached his shoulders was reminiscent of a lion’s mane, and the writhing muscles visible from his upper body, which was clad only in a fur and leather vest, were truly close to those of an animal.
“Is that man Lanhardt?”
It looks the same as what Whale Belter said. Darius also understood why he said he was a man like a lion.
The spirit of not allowing any modifiers other than the king of the jungle.
Darius, realizing that this is not normal, swallows his saliva and wiggles his hands.
He was filled with the desire to compete as a warrior, but unfortunately, he was standing here as a margrave.
It was natural for the opponent’s strongest force to collide with this side’s strongest force.
“Whoa.”
Findeneye with white breath next to Darius. The blood-red eyes took on the form of a predator that had already decided on its prey.
The chill radiating out from the white snow.
Finden Eye leaps forward with smoke rising from the war shoes.
“Huh? Now, wait a minute!”
Darius was taken aback when he saw Findenai suddenly running wild and running forward, but she had already run forward.
“P, Findenai?!”
“Captain!”
Finden Eye takes the lead after passing the barrier. Although not only Darius’ private soldiers but also members of the scrap metal shop were with him, even they were embarrassed by Findenai’s antics.
Quad!
Put the white snow that you are holding with both hands into the ground.
At that moment, a cold chill began to spread.
Soon it freezes and turns into sharp ice crystals in the air, or becomes another wall that blocks the opponent’s rush like a rising spear.
“Haa, haaa.”
Findeneye was holding Snow White with both hands, and the sweat on her cheeks froze instantly and her body was seen trembling from the cold.
Why?
I wondered why he suddenly acted so unreasonably. I soon understood as I saw the blood demons rushing towards me.
Even if they get hurt by ice crystals spread in the air or have their hooves pierced by a spear of ice on the floor, they don’t stop.
If Finden Ai had not stepped forward and reduced her enemy’s charging power even a little, she would not have been surprised if she had been crushed to death by those who had even pushed the fence.
“Finden, child… ….”
Admiring Darius.
Thanks to a split-second decision, Findeneye prevented the battle structure from almost being ruined.
The reason he was able to estimate the enemy’s capabilities and act quickly was thanks to his animal-like instincts and the crisis detection ability he developed while working as a member of the Resistance.
“Run! Run! Run!”
“Ignore it and dig inside!”
The fierce cries of hunters riding on blood horses.
“Stop it!”
“Stick to the wooden fence! “If you get pushed out here, you won’t have the honor of being a leader!”
North Weden soldiers and scrap metal dealers resisting it.
Both camps shout loudly, as if competing to see whose voice is louder.
Quaaang!
Even though the blood demons’ charge was somewhat subdued, part of the fence broke and they were pushed back.
The signal for the start of war rings out spectacularly.
However, the man who led the hunters at the front of the blood demons did not rush, but instead stood tall in the middle.
The front of the ax that was stuck.
In front of a woman with flowing white hair and white eyes, Lanhardt countersummons her blood demon.
“This is a great decision. “I can’t tell you how many lives you just saved.”
“Whoa.”
Findeneye took a stance while pulling out the white snow from the ground. He seemed to have a long exhalation of breath in his mouth even though it was the beginning of the year.
“You said you came here to kill Sangun? “My liver was very swollen.”
“I’m just trying to kill you.”
Lanhardt talks about killing a mountain army that far surpasses human strength as if it is no big deal.
He asked, stroking his chin, ignoring the gravity of his statement.
“Are you the wolf guarding the mountain range he told me about? “The expression is very accurate.”
“Are they animal friends? How dare you pretend to be friendly…….”
Findeneye, who was openly irritated while trying to catch his breath, stops moving.
It was so sudden that even Lanhardt was puzzled.
“Wait a minute, huh?”
Are you saying that someone told Lanhardt about him?
She quit her job as a scrap metal dealer and lived as Deius Verdi’s maid, so in fact, her existence was rarely known.
But it meant that someone had told Lanhardt about Findeneye.
“There is someone who knows about me?”
“Hmm, you’re curious about the strange part. “Who would have thought that someone as talented as you would be hiding there?”
“Don’t change your mind, ask who it is.”
Lanhart twitched his eyebrows at Findeneye, who asked rather persistently.
Because he had a very high opinion of the judgment and ability that Findenai had just shown.
“You showed me something good, so I’ll let you know in return.”
A story about a man flows from Lanhardt’s mouth.
Very short and simple.
“I don’t know where it came from.”
But this is what Findenai so desperately wanted.
“A necromancer taught me.”
Finden Eye’s eyes are trembling. Information so shocking that she momentarily forgot to breathe.
Because it was what she had longed for.
“Huuu.”
The atmosphere changes suddenly.
The heat of Finden Eye, which oppresses even the cold of Snow White, radiates from the whole body.
I have long since forgotten that I just used Baekseol and used up my stamina.
As excitement grows, a distorted smile appears on Findeneye’s lips.
“Didn’t that bastard say something else about me? Things like it’s pretty, it’s really s*xy, I want to eat it.”
“Hmm? “Other than that, nothing else was said.”
“Ah, really? “That’s right.”
Buuung!
Finden Eye, brandishing his white sword, takes a big step forward.
Lanhardt, who she thought was her enemy just now, was no longer on her mind.
“Get out of the way, let’s go look at the dog owner’s face.”
* * *
A fierce battle was in full swing.
A fierce struggle between those who protect the mountain range and those who try to break through.
They may seem a bit funny, but I was already climbing the mountain range.
“Huh, how did you know about this path?”
Soho, who follows me, sees the path I walk and makes a fuss about how amazing it is. Because the mountain range itself is rough, it is almost impossible to climb it except on a mountain path.
So there was a lot of fighting over the entrance.
I was climbing through a secret path on this mountain.
“I just found out a long time ago.”
I have heard about this hidden path from Sangun several times.
I’ve never actually used it, but I was glad I didn’t listen to it in vain at the time.
“But what are you planning to do by going into the mountains?”
I couldn’t leave Soho behind, so I brought him, but I didn’t explain why he came.
I answered by continuing to head upward without stopping.
“I’m going to meet Sangun in person.”
“Huh?! Up, it’s dangerous! “The guardian spirit must be very uncomfortable!”
Soho looks like he wants to go back right away. However, she knows that she can’t just go back from here, so she grumbles but continues to follow.
“Bird, do you have any thoughts?”
“Of course. “Don’t worry too much.”
“Hmm?”
Soho’s body suddenly stiffens at the sound of snoring coming from above. A girl who hides behind me when she gets nervous.
Soho was nervous and trembling at the sound of his voice for the first time, but to me, it was something so familiar and yet nostalgic.
Crash.
“I couldn’t believe it.”
The sound of a shotgun being loaded rang out. She slowly looked up the road and there was a short-haired woman with her coat on and a shotgun slung over her shoulder.
Deia Verdi was looking down at me.
“There was a guy who knew this road?”
I almost called her name without realizing it, but only strong hostility was coming out of Deia’s voice.
“Raise your hands if you don’t want your head pierced.”
There was no shaking of the muzzle.
If you do even the slightest thing, they will immediately pull the trigger.
I know that it is right to say hello. But her mouth didn’t come off properly.
‘Ah.’
Now I think I understand why I didn’t want to meet them in my current body.
I was afraid.
You may not accept Kim Shin-woo as he is now.
I feel funny that I am having similar concerns as the young man, but I also realize that they are just as important to me.
“Is the hair a decoration? Or is it hard enough to deflect a bullet?”
“Well, what are you doing!”
Deia is sarcastic and Soho is urging from behind.
I could have said that I was scared in another way. But I had no intention of running away.
“It’s still the same.”
It was meaningful, so I uttered a word.
Actually, I couldn’t find out anything with just this. Normally, I would have simply frowned and asked if he knew me.
“Huh?”
The moment Deia heard my words, she opened her eyes wide and looked at me, as if she felt something.
