143 – EP.29 Fierce Battle -5
All the soldiers led by the knight commander gave their lives for the country.
With this, the cleanup of the thousands of infected soldiers was over in an instant, and I set foot inside the castle again.
Tia will take care of the remaining soldiers outside anyway.
More than that, I was worried about Freesia, who had been entrusted with the interior.
It would be a catastrophe if I ran into Leschef and said it was a one-on-one fight while I was poking here and there.
I made a promise with the knight commander that I would protect Frisia at best, but it would be difficult if I was already behind.
That’s why I came back into the castle, but….
‘There are a lot of them inside too.’
The inside of the castle was no different from the outside.
Still, most of the infected inside were non-combatants.
Even the few soldiers who were there, as soon as they saw the amulet I was wearing, raised their respective weapons and cut down their bodies.
Perhaps the captain of the knights gave this necklace some meaning to it before the soldiers under his command completely swallowed it up in the plague.
Otherwise, the infected soldiers who were still intact would not make the extreme choice of suicide.
I don’t know what meaning the knight commander gave to the necklace.
But what is certain is that the opportunity and sacrifice he gave me must not be wasted.
‘I’m going to have to sort this out all at once.’
The infected inside the royal castle panic when the soldiers used as escorts start killing themselves.
They were renegades who voluntarily became Reshef’s henchmen to escape suffering like King Mordos.
As a knight who inherited the will of the knight commander who defended the kingdom, I have no intention of forgiving them.
The interior of this disgustingly splendid castle will be stained with the traitor’s blood.
Without an escort to protect them, the renegades are literally herbivores with nowhere to hide.
Determining to kill all of them by biting them off, I blocked their retreat with the wind and brutally killed them one after another.
Crushes the head and crushes the brain.
The limbs are cut off and the torso is dismembered.
Rip out his heart with his hands and explode it in front of him.
Blow holes in the throat to make it difficult to breathe.
By using other methods, they condemned them by inflicting more pain than others had suffered in the meantime.
Guilt?
There is no such feeling.
I can confidently say that killing these renegades was more boring than killing infected wild animals.
“Porridge… kill… Give… !”
“You want me to kill you?”
-Fu-wook!
The transmuter’s palm is lightly pierced, triggering his scream.
“Haaa!!”
“If you fully enjoy the freedom you gained while ignoring the suffering of the people, shouldn’t the suffering be longer?”
“Huh… ! Big… !!”
“If you want to go through it right now, blow it right away. Lesshef… Where is the young beast of plague?”
“Less Leshef…… aaagh!!”
“If you don’t want to suffer more than this, drop the word ‘nim’ neatly. What are you doing to a disgusting guy?”
“Les, Leshef is… hehehehe?!”
Suddenly, the bubbling sound of boiling water began to be heard, and a change came to the appearance of the altered person.
The renegade’s skin begins to melt as if it has become liquid.
Before I could hear the proper information, his skin completely melted away, leaving only a single skull at my feet.
“A beggar. I’ve thoroughly kept my mouth shut, saying it’s a divine water.”
I kicked off the skeleton gourd that remained intact and headed to the next location.
‘It’s certainly as wide as a royal castle, but it’s filthy wide.’
Rasbir Castle is a castle that stretches left and right, and its structure is divided into three parts: western, central, and eastern.
Just as Agera’s private room was on the west side, there is a VIP room on the upper floor and a space for vassals.
On the lower floor, there was a common room for servants, a kitchen, a storage room, and so on.
Of course, the center I entered had a barracks to protect the castle, and the space for the knights was mainly arranged.
Upstairs is the grand hall used as a banquet hall. Further up, there is the audience room and the king’s inner chamber.

Lastly, on the upper floor to the east, there was a large chapel, and below was a spice and wine cellar.
If you go further down from there, you will find a dungeon and a catacombs.
‘Since Freesia also admitted it, it must be right, well….’
At the meeting this morning, Freesia and I estimated the location of Lesshef as the audience room while looking at the structural diagram of the castle that I had obtained in advance.
At first, we were torn apart, but we agreed in advance to gather in front of the audience room when we roughly achieved our respective goals.
So I decided not to pay attention to other places, and only slowly climbed the stairs to the audience room.
Creating a path of unchanging blood…….
***
“Whew… ! I just got it all sorted out!”
The place you must stop by before going to the throne room, and the most spacious place in the castle.
I wiped the sweat from the back of my hand after I had finished dealing with all the infected in the Grand Hall.
It wasn’t as many as the soldiers we faced outside, but it was quite a chore to deal with hundreds of infected people.
If the soldiers outside hadn’t sacrificed themselves for the greater good, they might have exhausted themselves before reaching Lesshef.
Once again, deeply grateful for the amulet necklace and the leadership of the knight commander who gave it to me, I wipe the blood from the sword on the tablecloth in the banquet hall to save it.
‘What the hell is this Yonggary Gasina doing? They said they would voluntarily organize the inside, but they didn’t even organize this place properly!”
I feel relieved to have completely finished all the arrangements with my sword.
However, when she thought of the dereliction of duty by Freesia, who had entrusted her to this place, her stomach began to boil.
I didn’t like her attitude of accepting the strategy that we had consulted with each other like nothing.
It may be that only the infected were left in the central grand hall to decorate the finale.
Anyway, I decided to give a bitter shout when we met, and I stood with my back in front of the audience room door and calmly waited for the remaining members.
Ten minutes passed just like that.
The strong wind that hit the window opened it unexpectedly, and a light green girl came inside with a smile on her face outside the window.
“Yuu! Come with me!”
“Good work, Tia! Are there any injuries anywhere?”
“Yes! Because I completed the quest Yuu gave me with no hits! You can do it all day!!”
“That, yes….”
Captain Tia burns the will to fight by throwing her arms in the air like shadow boxing.
The way he behaves is cute, but I was worried that he might become a battle fanatic later on.
Should I show you only good things now?
I had this thought for a while, but in order to survive in the world of divine beasts, I needed a proper sense of holiness.
As a human with a short lifespan, I can’t remain Tia’s guardian forever…….
“Yuu?”
“I’m sorry, Tia. I thought about something else for a while.”
“It’s okay! It could be!”
Because I couldn’t show my sad feelings in front of the baby dragon.
She erased her bitter expression and smiled at her, trying to lift the corners of her mouth.
I wanted to spend the rest of my life laughing, at least when I was with Tia.
“By the way, Frisia, why are you so late?”
“Are you saying that Yongyong is your sister?”
Yongyongyi….
It’s a nickname that somehow suits me, so I laughed without knowing it.
“That’s right, that dragon.”
“If Yongyong was your sister, would you go down?”
“What? He said he went down… ?”
“Yes! Even now, go down to the bottom of this big castle!”
If it’s Tia’s horse that can read air in a wide radius, there’s no doubt.
Freesia says she’s on her way to the dungeon or graveyard.
Then why is she going underground instead of the audience room?
It could have been to rescue the infected in the basement, but why in my head? A question popped up.
Then, as she contemplated the true purpose of Freesia, she had one thing that flashed into her mind.
“Yuu?”
“Tia, just in case, prepare for a fight!”
“Arasse!”
She ran to the door of the audience room behind her and opened it without hesitation.
Fighting the final boss battle with Freecia while she hasn’t arrived yet will be a bit problematic, though.
Because of the anxiety that crept into my heart, I couldn’t get rid of it without opening it at all.
And that anxiety only became clear after seeing the scene inside the door.
“This stupid b*tch… !!”
A space where no one is left.
Only the throne placed in the center remained lonely.
The same goes for the king’s guest room across the throne room, only with splendid decorations.
“Tia! Didn’t she say Freesia was going down under her?”
“Yes.”
“Can she guide you where you are going?”
“Leave it to me!”
At the time of meeting after looking at the structure diagram, it was Freesia who assumed that Leshef would be in the audience room.
However, the alleged party does not appear here and is said to be heading to her erratic basement.
There is only one meaning.
‘Leschef is underground… !’
And even though Freesia knew that, she gave us false information and she herself left to deal with Les Chef.
Freecia took advantage of the agreed strategy.
To recklessly try to fight alone against an enemy that we decided to work together to defeat…. It was a very bad year.
“I can’t say bitter words….”
I won’t take this lightly, even if it means pulling my panties down and patting my butt and making it red.
But then I had to get to where she was going as soon as possible, so I followed Tia closely behind her.
The eastern chapel arrived after passing by the Grand Hall, which had been cleaned up earlier.
The corpses of infected people strewn about on the way were telling us about Freesia’s whereabouts.
If you follow the corpse like this, you should be able to reach the place where Freesia is before it’s too late.
But for some reason, Tia, who was running in front of her, came to a sudden stop, and she just stood there staring at her somewhere.
“Tia? Why all of a sudden Let’s go!”
“Yuu! I think I should stop by here before I go!”
“Suddenly… ?”
“This is an Easter egg inside!”
“Easter Eggs… Is there anything like that beyond this door?”
A door to a chapel with a guardian dragon pattern on it.
According to the structural diagram, it was indicated that the room was enshrined in the remains of the first king of Rasbir.
If we were to consider which of the first king’s relics and Freesia was more important, of course it was the latter.
However, when she went near the door Tia was looking at, the scales of Agera and the amulet hanging from her neck began to tremble by themselves.
It’s like saying you have to go inside.
‘Why are you doing this because there is something in this room….’
The way to go is in a hurry, but Agera’s scales, the Knight Commander’s amulet, and our companion dragon are all childishly daring to go.
With both hands and feet lifted, I strode toward the door, grabbed the doorknob, and looked back.
“Then go?”
“Yes!”
-Clap!
The door slides open with a cheerful unlocking sound, and white light pours out through the gap.
As if they were waiting for us.
“Ah… !”
Soon, the light that came out engulfed me and Tia, pulling me into the room.
Just like that, my vision was completely dyed white by the light.
“aaa!! f*ck! My eyes!!”
Games and reality are different.
So please, when preparing something special, I hope you don’t add dramatic effects like this.
