I Became the Hero Who Banished the Protagonist chapter 136

136. Kairos Siege War (3)

Quenore Strop is strong.

This is treated as a proposition such as the sun is hot and the ice is cold to continental people. No matter what standard you raise, Quenore Strop is playing on it. Those who had competed with Quenore with a sword said the same thing. The feeling of facing some huge, insurmountable wall. When you bump into it, it bounces off, and when you climb it, it slides. Such a huge ice wall.

And, as Quenoir Strop watched the battle between the giant and Illroy, he felt the emotions that those who dueled with him must have felt. Beyond the pure white curtain of the limit line, I could see the sparks of giants and humans. Illroy was literally burning everything and fighting. When the giant puts down a fist bigger than the peak of Mount Tai, a silver-white meteor soars, drawing his two tails.

Zeng-!!

The giant’s hand, which was trying to knock down the meteor, went up again. Quenore blankly opened his mouth as he looked at Iloy, pushing off the giant’s weight. He was still pushing his limits. Every minute, every moment, carrying the world on his shoulders, he is still doing things he couldn’t. Even if you get thrown off by a giant, even if that fist captures you. The warrior did not back down. The breaking point was shattering at the tip of the warrior’s sword.

I was arrogant.

Quenore thought so.

He thought there was no way up. He thought that no clear goal could exist. He thought that he himself was walking in the forefront, and that the limits he faced were the limits of the world.

The world of Quenore was then shattered. He felt as if he could see the world beyond the wall, which he thought was the limit. Like a shedding snake, the outer shell of Mana was shattered. What I thought was common sense has changed. Quenore Strop became a completely different prosecutor after that day.

—

“It seems like a pretty grandiose expedition, Archduke.”

As Quenore climbed onto the horse, Reese jokingly attached it to him. A smile spread across Quenore’s face. With a new realization, Quenore looked even younger. It wasn’t that he wasn’t worried when the door to the mansion was locked and he was immersed in meditation for days on end. However, Quenore, who had passed all of these processes, looked brighter than ever.

“Yes. He’s coming up with a vengeance too. It seems that the time of repayment is also approaching.”

Reese felt the immense pressure emanating from Quenor. What would those who had fought against Quenor before see the Grand Duke now? Perhaps the desire to fight again will disappear.

“It’s a nice day. The sky is wide open.”

Quenor threw his head back and took a deep breath. The warm, humid summer northern air passed through the lungs deep in Quenor, circling every nook and cranny of his body, waking him up. At the same time that Quenore’s senses were sharpened, his presence died. Quenore knew that the soil had melted from the body of the horse standing on the ground in the north. Softness that doesn’t get greasy. It was a good time for him to go on a long journey.

“Since the previous giant attack, the number of monsters has decreased considerably. Although there have been reports of them moving in groups, there seem to be few threatening monsters. There are probably only a few crawlers that can pose a threat to knights who can use auras.”

Reese erased his smile and reported it. Quenore, who had been gently closing his eyes, nodded his head.

“But…. Other provinces tell a different story. In particular, there are reports that the activity of monsters in the vicinity of the royal capital has increased rapidly as if someone had given instructions. This move. It wouldn’t be strange if things explode sooner or later.”

“Things explode. What do you think, Kyung?”

Quenor kept her eyes closed and opened her mouth to ask a question.

“Do you have anything to say at length? What Evernode and Bakhtins went through, the whole kingdom will now go through. Monsters will sweep the continent on a scale never seen before. If a specific entity is in command, a gale that can sweep the entire continent will blow aiming only at the capital.”

At that time, no matter how strong a fortress the capital is, it will collapse in an instant.

“What about the North?”

“If you focus on defense, you will be able to survive without losing a single territory. Now there are no giants in the north, nor the corps commander level monsters that followed the giants. Evernode will not be breached if you try to push in ignorantly.”

Reese affirmed. Quenore took Reese’s words by ear and rolled them on his tongue. If you focus on defense, Evernode can survive without a hitch. However, the capital cannot survive without the help of the north. It was obvious what action Quenore would have to take.

“Reese, did you say there are things to think about before sending reinforcements?”

“… Can our body be dry? We must first examine whether there is any difficulty in sending reinforcements and maintaining the fort.”

A question thrown into empty space. A faint smile appeared on the corner of the archduke’s lips when Rhys answered the archduke’s question as if he were a subject. When Archduke Quenore opened his eyes before long, his eyes were frozen and burning with a fighting spirit. The reins were loose, but there were veins in the hand holding the reins. The Grand Duke turned his horse and said.

“I need to stop the seeds of monsters near the northern part.”

Rhys raised her eyebrows at the archduke’s words. Archduke Quenore let out a laugh out loud as if Reese’s reaction was funny.

“Are you saying that those who are known as warriors of the north are wrapped up in the castle for fear of a weaker enemy? Have you ever heard that the best defense is an offense?”

“Yes, but… ,”

The Archduke’s hand was placed on Reese’s hesitant shoulder.

“What are you so surprised about? He was discussing things to think about before sending reinforcements.”

“Is that what you said? In the first place, he said that he would not put any trouble in the north, and would directly step out to support the capital.”

“It is right for me to step forward. It seems that the power of the royal sword alone is not enough to stop that many monsters. Your Majesty is here, there will be a party of warriors excluding Illroy, and Laura…. There are wizards, but it will be difficult with their power alone.”

The Archduke sighed.

“Illroy believes in people like me, so he must be so quiet. We, then, have an obligation to live up to his beliefs. The North owes him every life.”

“Well, if it’s what the hero said, there’s nothing we can do about it. I’ll pay for the two. Once when I was out on patrol, and once when the hero defeated the giant.”

Reese said, sticking out his finger, and the Archduke narrowed his eyes and looked at him. Reese shrugged his shoulders and shrugged his shoulders, not being frightened by the Archduke’s gaze.

“I will leave it to you to gather troops and master basic training. Raise the ranks of existing skilled soldiers, and roll new soldiers to the brink of death.”

“Isn’t that my specialty again? Leave it to me Even if it’s not for one person until the day I go to war, I’ll train it so that it doesn’t become a nuisance.”

Reese nodded his head with an eerie grin.

“I will organize a patrol team to wipe out the northern monsters with Luke. I’ll make sure that those miscellaneous things don’t hang around Evernode and the North again.”

So the war in the north started earlier than the capital. Quenore went out and slaughtered the northern monsters. To the south of Evernode is Luke’s army. To the north, Quenor and several knights slaughtered the monsters in sight. Small or large, strong or weak. The forces of Evernode did not cover any conditions. The monsters gathering in the north were crushed under the horseshoe of Evernode.

“Go south.”

“Weren’t you prepared for that?”

It was a day when the northern monsters dried up, and even after wandering around the forest all day, they couldn’t find any traces. Quenor climbed the Hill of the Fallen and looked down at Evernode and said that.

“Evernode will be fine, father. Do not worry too much.”

Luke’s qualities were outstanding. He was fortunate enough to entrust Evernode to his son, thought Quenore. It was a cunning thought. On the one hand, until this war, Luke thought that it would be okay even if his family didn’t follow him. Quenore bit his lip slightly.

“Are you coming back?”

Karin snugly grabbed the hem of Quenore’s clothes. The Grand Duke calmly looked down at Karin and nodded her head. Got stronger He may be just not showing off, but he has grown. No matter how old she was, she grew even taller. The child was growing rapidly.

“I’m going to help the hero.”

At the words “Hero,” Karin’s expression turned bright. The strong impression her work left behind still lingers deep in Karin’s mind. Perhaps, and will remain in her mind for the rest of her life.

“Can I see the hero after the battle?”

A grand duke who couldn’t bear to say no to Karin’s twinkling eyes.

“Let me ask you a question.”

The Guardian of the North, which had turned into a storm like that, began to descend to the South.

—

“Looks like you’ve been preparing well.”

The knight said in a bewildered voice. Agnes couldn’t help but nod his head in agreement. The Grand Duke and the army of the North were literally wiping out the demons that said there was nothing to be afraid of.

“Evernode… ! Grand Duke Strop of Evernode has arrived!!”

I heard someone shouting excitedly from the wall. Agnes nodded his head very slowly. The sea of monsters was splitting. The monster’s command line had ordered them to aim at the walls of the royal capital, so they couldn’t flexibly deal with the troops suddenly attacking from the side. Between the castle wall and the snowstorm in the north, the monster was crushed to death.

And at the head of it, a blue flash was howling.

“For Kairos! For Evernode!”

The swords of the northern heroes responded accordingly.

“Was the monster we fought against weaker than this!”

“No!”

“A fierce blizzard is raging along the limit line!”

“No!!”

A berserk warrior thirsty for the blood of monsters. The knights swung their swords with blue light in their eyes. Lis had a ferocious smile on her lips, and Serene slashed the three monsters at once with a sharp spirit. And, Quenore was approaching Agnes. With one of the great horses of the North.

“Come up.”

Quenore passed the reins to Agnes and said,

“Isn’t the northern part not attacked by monsters?”

“There are no monsters left that could be a threat to the North.”

At Quenore’s words, Agnes’ eyes widened.

“I heard you came to pay off your debt to the hero, but it seems like you came back stronger than that.”

“Thanks to Illroy. I wanted to show this to him too.”

Quenore smiled and raised his sword. An aura of a form that Agnes had never seen before was wrapped around Evernode’s treasured sword.

“… It will still be a long way before I catch up.”

“Your Majesty, if you have enough time, I think you can reach it.”

From noble mtl dot com

Agnes smiled bitterly and jumped on top of his horse. Even during the war, even in the midst of tens of thousands of monsters swarming around, the northern horses did not get confused. Agnes looked at the battlefield. Can win. I can wipe out monsters like this.

“I will go first.”

Agnes said and drove off his horse. Quenore nodded his head with a smile.

“For Her Majesty the Queen.”

Hope was best seen in despair. The cheers grew louder. The soldiers of the capital moved busily to respond to the army of the north. The gates were raised, and organized reinforcements were coming out of the gates.

“We are out too!”

“How long do you think we will be locked inside the walls and only defending ourselves!”

And.

Despair was also best seen in hope.

“No!!”

A sharp scream rang out. Quenore looked back and his eyes trembled.

… What’s this.

There are no soldiers who came out to help. No, all of them had become clots of blood and were scattered all over the battlefield. It encompassed even Quenore’s presence, and he suddenly appeared there.

The golden lion was staring at Quenore, his eyes flashing.
