Episode 119 – Ruben’s Knights (2)
“No, that’s ridiculous…”
Bendington couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
And it wasn’t just Bendington.
“Oh, my God…”
“How can this…!”
Bendington and his knights.
Even the soldiers and people of the garrison.
Everyone was frozen in place, staring blankly at the scene in front of them.
Bendington’s order to evacuate the people had long been forgotten.
And Bendington didn’t have time to think about it either.
Kwajik-!
Purse Seok!
He just watched the barbarians being swept away.
And those who create these scenes.
There were only 20 people.
20 knights in jet-black armor.
Only 20 knights were sweeping away the barbarians.
Even if Xian was added, there were 21 people.
However, the barbarians who attacked the garrison were at least hundreds.
Even if you roughly calculate it by eyeball, it’s well over 200.
It was a power difference of 10 times.
Even for some reason, why can it be so.
The barbarians were all using the power of Aurors.
In other words, each of the 200 barbarians was at least knight level.
however.
Kwajik-!
Perseok!
was being washed away
Such barbarians were losing their pulse and were being swept away like autumn leaves.
For only 21 people.
“Uh, how can this…!”
Bendington couldn’t believe it.
I couldn’t believe it at all.
Bendington could be assertive.
I was sure.
The Royal Knights, called the 1st Order of the Empire.
and the White Wolf Knights.
They are also impossible.
Of course, driving out the barbarians would have been possible.
Powerful people of all experts.
Because they were the strongest knights beyond the empire and called the 1st knights on the continent.
but.
I’m sorry-!
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
It wasn’t like this.
It was overwhelmingly impossible.
Did you say Ruben’s Knights?
I didn’t know the name of the knights because I didn’t hear it.
Knights armed with jet-black armor and swords.
The red aura of the savages could not be matched by those knights.
The power of the savage tribes with monstrous power was swallowed up by the darkness of the knights and disappeared.
impossible.
The Royal Knights and the White Wolf Knights.
It is absolutely impossible to wipe out the barbarians in this way.
Everyone in the garrison, including Bendington, froze on the spot.
So little time passed.
The savages standing there no longer existed.
It really didn’t take long until that time.
“This, this is…”
Bendington couldn’t believe the situation at all.
#
“I have completed all the tasks you have given me.”
Ruben’s knights lined up in front of Xi’an.
Xian looked at the knights lined up calmly.
Fortunately, there appeared to be no injuries.
No one was particularly injured.
Hi, what kind of equipment are you wearing right now?
So, how much equipment does it cost to get injured?
It’s because now that Xi’an is a high school student, mass production is possible.
Originally, 300,000 gold per S-rank sword.
And 300,000 gold for each S-grade armor.
It was an equipment set totaling 600,000 gold.
Because all 20 people are wearing such a set of equipment.
If you add up that price alone, it’s a whopping 12 million gold.
Literally gold, chideokchideok, the right quality of the knights.
‘huh? Knights of the wise?’
isn’t it bad?
I honestly wasn’t saying anything wrong.
However, Xian quickly shook his head and brushed it off.
anyway it is
The name of the knights is the Knights of Hyeonjil, something, the Knights of Hyeonjil.
Xian burst into laughter.
And it wasn’t just the effect of the hyeonjil.
The power of demons used by barbarians.
To be precise, he was swallowed up by demons and was using the power of madness.
‘hmm···.’
For some reason, the barbarians were using demonic power.
However, the power used by the Knights of Xian and Ruben is also a demon.
It was also the power to control the demons of the source.
Although it is a power stained with madness, its essence is a demon.
I was a little worried because the power the knights used was backwards compatible with the hemp method, but…
After all, the Mahon method was the Mahon method.
Kendrick seemed to have done a good job of educating him, too.
The power of the savages did not dare to touch the Knights of Xi’an and Ruben.
It wasn’t an unreachable level.
Not only did he not be able to use it, but his power was scattered and disappeared.
Moreover, it was the first battle against a non-monster person.
Even so, the knights showed no signs of panic.
Kendrick seems to have taught this well.
“great job.”
Kendrick in the bracelet with cyan knights in line.
told both of them.
“Eh, what the heck is this…”
At that moment, a voice came from the side.
Where I looked, Bendington was looking this way with an expression of disbelief.
Sian stepped in front of Turbuck and Bendington.
“What the hell is this all about?”
“······ yes?”
Bendington wanted something for a moment.
Exactly, I was speechless.
Isn’t that what this side should ask?
How did it happen?
So what can I do to wipe out the barbarians like this?
Bendington thought for a moment, but…
I was able to come to my senses quickly.
Bendington let out a small sigh.
A face that suddenly darkens.
“As you can see, the northern part is now occupied by barbarians.”
Occupied, Bendington said.
I thought it would be difficult to simply drive out the barbarians.
It seemed that the situation in the north was more serious than I thought.
Hagisa, I could tell just by looking at the current situation.
If the garrison was attacked, that was enough.
It was no ordinary garrison either.
The garrison where the Margrave’s grand duke, Bendington, is located.
If such a garrison was to be attacked, the situation was so serious that it had to be regarded as disastrous.
It didn’t seem to have flowed into the emperor’s ears for nothing.
And why did things get to this point?
“Is it because the barbarians use red auras?”
“As expected… you seem to have felt it.”
Bendington nodded with a dark expression.
Can Xian quickly understand what happened?
A red aura used by barbarians.
I don’t know if it’s one person.
If all the barbarians used that kind of power, it would be hard to stop.
It was too much for him to have endured until this point.
And the identity of that power was madness swallowed up by demons.
Bendington didn’t seem to know, but Xian could.
the problem is.
‘How on earth?’
It was about how the savages deal with the power of demons.
‘Could it be the Dark Elf’s black magic?’
There was a possibility…
Bendington had no idea that the dark elves were involved.
Not only Bendington, but no one knew.
A fact that only Xian knows.
If that’s the case, then the dark elves led this…
Does that mean that the Dark Elves have also been swallowed by demons?
‘hmm···.’
I thought and worried, but I just couldn’t figure it out.
Sian asked Bendington.
“I heard that traces of black magic have been found.”
“That’s right. So, my father is currently investigating with Lorsilt.”
Bendington immediately nodded at Xian’s question.
And Bendington’s father is the Marquis of the North, Count Osley Battenberg.
“Ah, that’s…”
For a moment, Bendington made a look of embarrassment.
It seemed to be because Osley was with Lorsilt.
You see…
It seemed that Osley had gone to meet Panat and the Arcanic Magic Corps, which had been dispatched to Lorsilt.
Well, I did understand.
Lorsilt sent the best of his strength.
Elandur sent Xian.
More than anything else, if you want to investigate the traces of black magic, there are some that are Lorsilt rather than Elandur.
Black magic was also part of magic.
Of course, Lorsilt was more certain than Ellandur, the family of knights.
Besides, Fanat is the star of the empire.
An archmage who has reached the 6th tier.
“it’s okay. Never mind.”
Sean didn’t really care about that.
It’s not the contempt I received once or twice.
In the first place, this was natural, and it was not something to be called condescending.
“sorry.”
But Bendington didn’t seem to be like that.
Even more so now that he has confirmed the potential of the Knights of Ruben.
Sian waved his hand and waved it.
Then he spoke again to Bendington.
“However, the place where traces of the black magic were found. I would like to go there now.”
“yes? Are you talking there?”
Xian nodded.
It was clear that the traces of black magic were probably from the Dark Elves.
However, the power of madness used by barbarians now.
It wasn’t clear if this had anything to do with black magic.
If it has anything to do with black magic.
All of this had to be seen as instigated by the Dark Elves.
And that means that.
It means that Dark Elves couldn’t overcome the dark mana of black magic.
And if it really is…
It seemed that the idea of accepting the Dark Elves as a territorial citizen had to be folded.
Because I can’t accept those who are stained with madness as a territorial citizen.
『[Land Quest] – ‘The Dark Elves are calling. We are not demons!’』
Quest said so.
Also, you can refuse the quest.
There must have been something related.
So, how the hell is this situation going?
I thought I would have to go there to find out.
Of course… I didn’t know what to do with the traces of black magic.
Xian was a knight, and he really knew nothing about magic.
However, black magic was not only based on demons after all.
‘Because I can see Elodie’s records.’
Xian was able to view Elodie’s records on his smartphone.
No matter how the continent’s strongest arcanic magic corps.
There is one thing called Fanat, a genius called the star of the empire.
Exceed reached the 10th level.
Compared to the great mage Elodie, he was just a puppy.
Especially when it comes to black magic.
so what
Once I go, I’ll do anything.
Sian shrugged and waited for Benddington to speak.
“That is···.”
But Bendington was hesitant to say anything.
“Is it difficult?”
“no. I don’t mean that…”
Bendington was silent for a while.
Then, he spoke with a face that had no face.
“In fact… all the roads to that place are occupied by barbarians.”
“ah···.”
Xian let out a small exclamation.
I knew it from when the garrison was attacked.
It seemed that the situation in the north was really serious.
“hmm···.”
Xian thought about it for a while, but that time was not long.
“Good.”
Xian calmly nodded.
“yes? It went well. what is that…?”
Bendington tilted his head with a puzzled look.
Xian smiled slightly.
Xian came to the North for two reasons.
The first was to solve the Dark Elf’s quest.
The second is the overwhelming justification for making Ruben independent.
“Let’s go wipe it all off.”
It was to build it.
#
“Thank you… Thank you very much.”
“If it weren’t for the knights, we would all…”
“Thank you so much for saving me… for saving me.”
Bendington was dazed by the constant stream of thanks.
is this correct now?
“Great, Grand Duke… Now, it is said that the knights of Ruben have destroyed the barbarians who occupied Lesven’s territory.”
“We have rescued all the additional people who were being held now…”
is this really right?
Bendington could hardly believe the successive news of victory.
The barbarians stained with madness were too powerful.
Even like the word savage, his disposition was tyrannical.
slaughter, plunder.
It was all that remained in the place where the barbarians swept through.
In the process, even the suffering suffered by the people of the Empire.
Here is the northern part of the land of harsh winters.
The environment itself was on the side of the barbarians.
If he made up his mind and hid, there was no way to find him.
Even if they tried to wipe them out, they cut off their tails and ran away.
The only ones getting tired in the process are the soldiers.
They were barbarians who had no way to do anything.
Even if he used all the means he had, the only thing he could do was hold on.
Even that was now, slowly, at the moment when it was about to be pushed.
But what now…
“Now, it is said that the knights of Ruben have driven out the barbarians who occupied Derne.”
“That’s why I’m asking because I have a bad memory.”
Bendington asked the reporter who reported with a blank face.
“Didn’t you just go out there…?”
“Yes, yes.”
“But how much time has passed now?”
“It’s been about 30 minutes.”
Bendington was momentarily at a loss for words.
is this really correct?
“This time you used something like a strange cart…”
“wagon?”
“They said it was a new story… and what was it about? It was my first time seeing it.”
new era?
“What is that…”
Bendington couldn’t understand if this was the case now.
So Bendington is the Knights of Xian and Ruben.
Follow the path they dug through to where Osley is.
Really crush it.
In a slang word.
A week passed like that.
“How much more do I have to go?”
“Oh, we’re almost there. Ah, I can see it right in front of me…?”
Bendington put a question mark at the end of his words.
And I shut my mouth tight.
Why?
Why are you already in front of me?
Because I was thinking like this.
Originally, I shouldn’t have been able to start, let alone see it in front of my eyes.
They should not have been able to do anything because they were trapped by barbarians.
Maybe I should have been stuck in the middle and frozen.
But his feet are tied, let alone frozen to death.
All the savages on the way were swept away.
Thanks to that, my breath was clear.
This road occupied by the barbarians was like the back of the northern front.
Didn’t they drive out all the barbarians that hung over the north?
This could be said to have changed the situation.
There was nothing to say about the people who were rescued in the process.
And now the town in front of my eyes.
“It’s a little later than I thought.”
Xian’s voice.
“·······”
Bendington had nothing to say.
And Bendington completely changed his mind.
He let out a deep sigh of relief.
Not Kai Ellandour.
Not the White Wolf Knights.
Cyan Elandour.
Knights of Ruben.
I felt relieved and infinitely grateful that they had come.
#
Tring!
《Northern land of cold winter. The names of you and Ruben are warmly blooming there!!!”
《Prestige Points + 5,000 P》
《Prestige Points + 3,000 P》
《Prestige Points + 4,000 P》
.
.
Countless notification windows popped up on the smartphone screen saying that the reputation points had risen.
Xian checked the notification window and put the smartphone back in.
A small and medium-sized town in front of you.
‘surely···.’
They said it was a village where traces of black magic were discovered.
Even though there was a little distance, the power of the demon was considerable.
however.
‘I haven’t been stained with madness?’
I didn’t feel the power of madness like the barbarians.
The demonic power currently handled by the Knights of Ruben.
Rather, it was quite similar to it.
“I will go right away and tell my father.”
Bendington moved up to Xian’s side and spoke.
And then, they walked straight into the village.
And just then.
“Yeah these guys!!!!”
Suddenly, angry shouts erupted from inside the village.
The roaring, resounding cry contained bitter anger.
It was obscured by buildings, but it was out of sight.
“father?”
Bendington muttered, opening his eyes in surprise.
It must have been Earl Osley’s voice.
“Kill all these people!!”
Earl Osley’s furious roar erupted again.
