157 I’m here to save you
***[Goruka, Chief of the Red Hawk Tribe]***
There were about 50 tribes who came out to take revenge this time.
There were more tribes who wanted revenge, but those were the ones that reached out the fastest and ran.
It might have been better to gather a little more warriors and set off.
Although the place where the kidnapped steppe tribe is located is close to the steppe, you have to go inside the kingdom.
Even considering that the other lords of the kingdom may attack, and that you have to protect them when you go back after rescuing them.
But there was no time.
The longer it is delayed, the more people will die or be sold in the meantime.
That fact made the attack somewhat unreasonable.
Fortunately, about half of the tribes contacted were fully prepared for revenge at any time.
As soon as he determined that he had the minimum number of men for an attack, Goruka left the tribe in his father’s care and set off.
Red hawks do not suffer direct tribal damage.
However, Goruka’s older sister and several other women who married from the Red Hawk to other tribes were abducted.
There were plenty of reasons to join the attack.
Steppe warriors are different from the kingdom’s dull soldiers.

Doesn’t rest even at night
Sleeping and eating were solved on horseback.
Unlike when chasing on foot, when riding a horse, the distance decreased in an instant.
As soon as the steppe warriors reached the village, they shouted a warning.
Hurr, hurr, hurr.
It makes a loud sound by moving its throat and tongue strangely.
This unique sound had the meaning of threatening the other party and warning the people of the abducted village.
Now that we are attacking, hide from the enemy and from our arrows.
As the steppe warriors sounded warnings at the same time, the air everywhere was excited.
The warrior’s voice is much louder than the average person’s.
It must reach the people in the village.
Even if the voice reaches only a few people, it will immediately pass on to other people.
Hang in there.
Kill them all and save them for sure.
Goruka also loudly sounded a warning with such feelings in mind.
The village, which could not even react properly until the grassland tribes approached, fell into chaos at once.
The men standing at the entrance turned their backs and cowardly started running toward the inside.
As if mocking, a louder sound echoed from the mouths of the warriors.
Amidst the loud warning sounds of the warriors, Gorukawa and the Red Hawk warriors pulled their bowstrings in unison.
The person who found this place was Goruka.
As usual, the honor of the first attack belongs to the Red Hawk tribe.
Other tribes surrounded the village and rode their horses, waiting for the first arrow to strike the village.
As soon as the arrow made of magic bombs was stuck in the village fence, it started to explode with a bang, a bang, a sound.
Some fences catch fire.
As a signal, the steppe warrior broke the fence with an ax and entered the village.
Some warriors jumped over poorly fenced areas.
In an instant, the town turned into a mayhem.
***[Woman from Grassland, Lady Renee]***
[Help is coming. He heard the signal from the Red Hawk Tribe a few days ago. So, endure… endure. So that your children do not lose their mother.]
Try to remember the words of the woman of the same country who whispered softly so that no one else could hear.
Red Hawk… Father…
The image of the tribe she was born and raised in came to mind.
If it was said that he had followed us to this kingdom, it would have been his younger brother Goruka or another warrior, not his father.
‘If they noticed this place…’
Red hawks value their families more than other tribes.
If they know that we are being held here, they will surely come to find us.
that was certain
But it was unknown whether she would come before she died.
I don’t know exactly because I came in a wagon that was blocked in all directions, but it’s quite far from the meadow to this place.
There were also many men with weapons.
You will also need to prepare for an attack.
It probably takes a while to arrive.
At least one or two tribes cannot come to the rescue alone.
I didn’t know about war, but I knew that much as a plain woman.
“…”
After hearing that help was actually coming, several dark nights came.
Several times I felt the dark space getting darker.
how much longer do i have to wait
I know it’s not a lot.
Just a little bit, a little bit, they’ll be in a hurry thinking of us, so just wait a little bit.
However, no matter how hard she tried, her body gradually slowed down as time passed.
My body is so heavy that I feel as if I am slowly sinking into the depths of the earth.
At night for several days, a small bird chirped.
It is the sound of someone locked up in the village, announcing to his people who have not yet heard from him.
Our people know we are here. they will come Hang in there. Hold on.
Perhaps the reason he couldn’t hear it was because he was locked inside the mansion.
Maybe it’s because my senses have been blunted by getting hit every day.
I feel like I’m wandering in a fog.
Her mind went on to remember her childhood, to suddenly return to having a child, and to think of her husband again.
Suddenly, he remembered his daughter who had been captured here.
Will the child be okay?
It was a few days ago that I saw his face.
ten days? No, I think it’s already been close to a month.
maybe more than that
It seemed like a very distant memory, and it felt like it was just yesterday.
I do not know.
I suddenly felt uneasy.
Is the child really safe? Perhaps, like you, you may have been injured and collapsed somewhere.
The child is not the child he gave birth to.
It was the child of his third wife, who came in after her.
But all the children in one family fence are my daughters and my sons.
Thinking of the child’s face, the woman again pictured the face of her child in the meadow.
my children.
I would like to meet.
Thinking of the children growing up under another wife instead of her, the woman moved her body with a slight sigh.
Being raised by another wife is not unfortunate.
Even if it’s not as much as the real child, everyone will raise it with affection.
But I still want to grow it with my own hands.
my daughter, my son
We must do our best so that the children do not lose their mother.
Yeah, I can’t die now.
I have to live until help comes, until my husband, father, maybe even Goruka comes to the rescue.
Even if I die, I want to see my child’s face at least once, one last time.
The woman crawled little by little, breathing thinly.
This barn is where the injured are abandoned.
Now there are two more besides her.
When they die, they are thrown away in the woods outside the village, but there were people who appeared to die but sometimes came to life.
In preparation for such a time, this village throws useless grassland tribes into a barn.
If they were certain that they would not survive, they abandoned them in the woods far outside the village, even if they were still alive.
One of the people abandoned in the barn died this morning.
I couldn’t breathe anymore.
He had wounded his leg, and even before he died, the smell of putrefaction was emanating from the wound.
The other was barely breathing, but there was no chance of survival.
It was like a breathing corpse.
Being around a dead person is likely to cause illness.
It would be better to fall a little.
The woman pressed herself to the edge of the building and relaxed.
The cloth, which was torn from his clothes and tied to his forehead, is very heavy, perhaps because it is soaked with blood.
head stuck to the ground
‘Breathe… I have to breathe. can’t sleep Stay awake… Stay awake…’
The dark barn is as hot as a meat pot.
A stench mixed in the hot air, making it hard to breathe.
The woman took a deep breath and pushed her eyelids back and forth.
Please hurry… come before I give up…
As I thought so, I heard a commotion from outside.
The screams of men, the sound of horses hooves, the sound of buildings collapsing.
‘come….’
The grassland tribes have arrived.
‘You have to let me know. I have to… let them know I’m here.’
The moment I thought so, the barn door creaked open.
I moved my eyes a little and looked at it, and a little light came in.
With the light on his back, someone stepped inside.
The first thing that caught my eye was the wide hem of the dress that moved through the dust on the floor.
The round dress, like an overturned bell, spun around, and the woman shut the barn door in embarrassment.
Before the light disappeared, I saw the face of the kingdom woman.
Renee, who had driven her to this point, was in the barn.
Unknowingly, power went into the boat.
Beep-.
A sound so loud that it was hard to believe that it was made by himself rang in his throat.
The sound that came out before I even thought about it was the first signal that the steppe children learned.
enemy!
enemy!
enemy!
The enemy is trying to harm me.
please save me!
***[Rene, everything]***
At first, I tried to run out of town.
But I quickly realized that I couldn’t.
All four sides are barbarians.
‘Hey, did barbarians invade the kingdom?’
The events in the novel do not follow the proper order and are tangled up.
I didn’t know why at first, but now I know.
Maybe it’s because her husband went into Oscar’s body.
Because my husband knows the contents of this novel.
From the time I remembered my previous life, I must have planned things so that the story didn’t flow as the novel did.
My husband is a smart and meticulous person.
Even in his previous life, he had prepared various safety devices so that she would not be in trouble when he died.
There’s no way that personality has gone anywhere, so they probably prepared one by one.
He induced it to come to this end.
After the shock that her husband had left her to die had passed, she came to think of it later.
‘It was all because of my husband that I became like this.’
I’ll find out only now
Why did you become like this?
Anger welled up in my heart.
He left it as it was, knowing that he was in the monastery and here.
It’s not just about letting them die.
It was my husband who pushed things to this point.
If you think about it like that, the reason she couldn’t connect with Robert was because of her husband.
Because he was inside Oscar’s body.
And because I neglected myself.
Suddenly, I remembered the last time I saw Oscar.
What was he like then?
After quietly rummaging through her memories, Renee bit her nails.
My husband knows this habit.
I would have noticed even then.
but i just let it go
I sided with Catherine.
From then on, her husband’s love had already left her and was heading towards Catherine.
‘I said I love you.’
When we got married, he promised to love only himself.
never look elsewhere.
When I thought of Katrin’s face, my heart felt like it was on fire.
I should be standing next to him, but why is Katrin there?
why!
I don’t know what to do with anger and jealousy.
Running in the opposite direction, dodging the barbarian sounds echoing from all sides, Renee clutched her chest.
can’t forgive
never forgive
You will regret it.
‘You will absolutely regret ignoring me.’
I will take revenge no matter what.
Are you going to leave your wife and be happy alone?
Meeting a younger and more beautiful woman and starting a new life?
From nob le mt l dot com
Do you know how to forgive that?
i will never forgive
As I was running with that thought in mind, the screams and sounds of the savages got closer and closer.
What caught my eye then was the barn.
If she remembers right, the shabby barn, far from the other buildings, is where sheaves of straw are placed.
It was also a place where dying slaves were abandoned.
The grassland tribes were killing people and setting fire to several places at the same time.
It may be that they intend to burn down all the buildings in this entire village.
But the building with the slaves will be safe.
From nob le mt l dot com
Dead or alive, they’re here to save the slaves.
Without even thinking, Renee ran towards the barn.
I looked around before entering the barn, but no one was looking this way.
are you okay.
Hide in the straw bales in this barn.
There are only dead slaves here, or almost dying slaves.
There was no one to harm her.
You can leave after the steppe people have gone.
But just as the barn door had just been closed, there was a loud noise coming from the corner of the building.
