Episode 115. Commander-in-Chief (2)
slinky.
Ice crashed into the glass and made a small sound.
“ha······.”
Emilia put the glass down and took a deep breath.
Each time that happened, the eyes around her continued to turn to her.
A beautiful woman in a maid’s suit was lamenting alone, so there were some people who looked into them.
“Excuse me.”
“Ah yes.”
But when a tall man sat next to her, everyone had no choice but to turn their heads and lick their tongues.
little by little.
The man looked at Emilia, who was pouring her cup without hesitation, as if worried.
“How many drinks is that?”
“I don’t know.”
“Drink in moderation.”
“I’ll figure it out.”
“············”.
Hurtlocker seemed to be boiling, but he kept a smile the whole time.
Anyway, I couldn’t be angry here.
“Master. I’d like a glass of milk, please.”
“Yes.”
Noticing that the two of them had an unusual atmosphere, Eric hurriedly threw a glass of milk and left the bar as if running away.
I didn’t want to get involved in a family fight.
“Emilia.”
“why.”
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you and you didn’t even say hello.”
“What more do you want. A wanted human.”
It was the right thing to say.
But for some reason, I couldn’t shake the impression that there were thorns in those words.
“How are you today?”
“so-so.”
“Still, haven’t you been able to gain some weight? Because the vicious boss who pays you 2,000 Tyrion as a monthly salary is gone…”
Hurtlocker couldn’t help but keep his mouth shut.
Emilia’s venomous gaze was directed towards him.
Looking at the water drops on the corners of my eyes, I couldn’t speak until the end.
“sorry.”
“I’m sorry.”
“No… you know. That.”
“What.”
“He said something bad.”
“You think I’m mad about that?”
“············”.
no that’s right
Hurt Locker seemed to die of frustration.
‘I’ll do it really.’
Emilia wasn’t like that.
In the past, he said he wanted to be like his older brother, and he said he respected him the most and followed him well.
I couldn’t figure out how my daughter, who had just reached puberty, had become such an attitude toward her father.
I didn’t want to keep this cold atmosphere.
If we stand still, this Cold War will go on for a long time.
Hurt Locker prefers to break through the front.
“That guy. Do you like it?”
“Puh!”
“············”.
Emilia drank the glass and then stopped spitting it out.
Soon, Eric walked naturally, wiped the bar, and left again.
“Kek················································· basis. No, why do you think so?”
“I’ve been thinking that I’m not like you these days. If it’s an emotion enough to change you… there’s nothing more to it than love.”
“············”.
Emilia turned her head and clenched her chin.
This stupid brother was quick to notice only in strange things.
But that wasn’t the complete answer.
“I do not know either.”
“Emilia. Be honest with me. An important matter that may interfere with the mission…”
“So, I don’t know either. Really. I don’t know…. I don’t know if I like it. Or if it’s a different feeling.”
Emilia covered her face with both hands, her voice muffled.
Hurtlocker drank the milk, then sat back down and began to listen.
Concentrate to the point where you can’t even taste the taste of milk.
“I’m just so worried. I’m afraid it’s going to go wrong. I said it would be okay, but it’s a battlefield. I’m not going to a strategist, I’m going to fight. I stopped him. I stopped him in tears.
“············”.
“Now, our biggest project is to hire him. But what if something goes wrong? If I get hurt and come back? Then I’m really… Tears are coming out. I’m so scared of what it will be like if it becomes a reality. I haven’t slept well at night. Do you like this…?
“············”.
Seeing Emilia weeping like chicken poop, Hurt Locker felt like her billionaires were falling apart.
only I didn’t know
that it is love
Who in the world would be so heartbroken just because of a mission?
It was clear that Emilia didn’t know where she was because she had never been in love.
Feeling so upset, Hurt Locker suddenly got drunk.
“Master. A glass of whiskey. And stop taking orders for him.”
“Oh, why!”
“I drank too much.”
“No! I drank in moderation, but what?”
“Then I can’t sleep at night.”
“Is that what you know?”
“ha······.”
Seeing Emilia quickly turning her head again, Hurt Locker sighed.
Drinking too much caffeinated beverages is bad for your body.
‘I don’t know if I’m going to fall over there.’
I could tell by looking at it.
As for Emilia’s exhaustion.
What will happen to Emilia then if that damned Empire minion doesn’t come back unharmed?
I don’t think that unlucky bastard is going to fall behind.
He must have come up with a detailed plan of his own again.
But at least one.
There’s a very slim chance he could die.
‘f*ck. I’ll take a look.’
Hurt Locker soon made up his mind.
***
How would Emilia react if she saw this now?
Are you anxious and worried?
Or when this bastard dies, will he eat popcorn and watch?
I don’t know which one, but I’m sure-
“Don’t slow down! Don’t worry about the formation collapsing, and run at full speed!”
“Yeah!”
Now we’re f*cked.
To briefly explain the situation, we ran into the enemy cavalry on our way back from rescuing the imperial knights commander who was isolated in the great forest.
“I’m chasing you closely!”
However, the number of cavalry was rather large.
Even if it was only 50, I would have thought that it would be worth a try, but if you look closely, the number was over 100.
No matter how many superhumans gathered here, the saying that there was no business in front of Daguri was no different from the truth.
In the end, it looked like we were running away in a hurry.
“Fortress! I see!”
It was certainly good news that everything was coming, but the road ahead was not very promising.
Perhaps he heard the noise of hoofs from afar, or the enemy infantry was encamped in front of the main gate.
“I wish I could give you some support from the inside…”
Taylor grunted it and said.
It would definitely be best if you came out to cover the fortress, but the probability of that happening was slim.
The knights inside have lost their center of gravity, so now they are nothing but chaos.
It was better to let go of the expectation that he would run out for Pellin.
sh*t. So, do I have to shoot magic from the first day?
“Are there any troops left inside?”
At that time, the imperial knights commander followed up and asked Taylor.
“Yes. About 20 knights.”
“············”.
The Imperial Knights Commander nodded once and drew the great sword from the left.
Then, when he lifted it up high in the sky, the sword was shining golden in the moonlight.
The golden light fluttered so strongly that it seemed that he had used flash magic for an instant.
It was right after that.
“Wow!”
The front door opened and the knights poured out.
When a cavalry charge suddenly pushed in from the rear, the enemy infantry formation collapsed in a panic.
The road is now open.
We were escorted by the rushing knights, and we rushed into the front door as it was.
“Ugh! Retreat!”
The light cavalry of the enemy that pursued them had to turn their noses without even thinking of confronting them.
Against the walled defenders, it would be difficult to maintain a numerical advantage in such a narrow place.
Soon the front door closed and peace came.
No one was injured or left behind.
As promised, only the commander of the Imperial Knights had been taken out.
“Commander-in-Chief!”
“You’re back!”
But cheers were pouring down on the wrong guy.
The commander of the Imperial Knights still looked tired and greeted the knights one by one by holding hands.
I felt like a chimney to say that I am no longer the commander-in-chief, but I persevered.
If you try to convey it in such a chaotic atmosphere, it will not be delivered properly.
After all, it was correct to convey it clearly in a place such as a meeting.
“Everyone, are you hurt?”
“············”.
Someone from behind pulled me tight and I looked back.
Erica was looking at us with anxious eyes.
Einz was also seen coming out of the barracks.
“It’s okay. Have you calmed down a bit?”
“Yeah… well. Maybe.”
“Have you been prepared?”
“What promise?”
“I am prepared to kill people.”
“······································································!

Judging by the way his eyes grew, it seemed that he was still there.
Of course, if he had a dagger in his hand to kill the prisoner, it would be solved right away, but that could be the worst choice to destroy Erika’s mentality.
After all, Erica and Einz were the guys who could kill lives after twists and turns in the original story.
So you won’t have to worry too much.
“If you want it to be really hard, you can go back to the system.”
“No… it’s not like that…”
“Then, both of you should follow me. Let’s go to the military meeting.”
There was an urgent fire.
As the commander of the Imperial Knights entered the fortress, all the knights naturally gathered in the largest barracks.
The barracks quickly became muggy, filled with sweaty knights.
“Is this all about the article?”
“Yes.”
“············”.
The expression of the Imperial Knights Commander’s expression became very gloomy.
It was a suppression force that once had close to 1,000 knights.
Of course, it was also the commander of the Imperial Knights corps who destroyed the suppression force.
“Then let’s hold a military affairs meeting. Who was in charge of this place while I was away?”
“············”.
Pellaine raised and lowered her hand without saying a word.
“I see. I would like to express my gratitude, Commander of the Holy Knights. For maintaining such an army…. Then, as of this time, I would like to take over the position of Commander-in-Chief, but if there is an objection, raise your hand.”
“············”.
“············”.
The conference hall was enveloped in silence.
The Holy Knights knew how to raise their hands.
They were afraid that no one raised their hand.
In the end, I’m going to have to use the poison alone.
I took a deep breath and raised my right hand.
“Schlus… Heinkel? Why are you here?”
“It’s a reinforcement.”
“············”.
As soon as he uttered a word, he could see the expression of the imperial knight leader’s expression wrinkled.
But I couldn’t say goodbye to him.
Considering the position of the person I’m representing now, I could never do that.
“Reinforcement? No, rather the opposite. By what qualifications are you?”
“I express my disagreement with the transfer of the post of commander-in-chief as a knight under the Emperor’s direct command.”
“······································································!
He opened the scroll and showed the emperor’s appointment letter.
It was quite a sight to behold with the knights tilting their heads and opening their eyes wide.
Was this what it felt like to shout out the secret word of the Joseon Dynasty?
“In the last battle, the suppression force failed to manage its prisoners of war and lost the 4th Castle, as well as suffered great losses in rotation due to strategic failure. will be deprived of it.”
“deprivation······!”
Kane’s eyes widened and began to stare at me as if to kill me.
It wasn’t just that.
There was hostility in the eyes of the knights looking at me all at once.
