Chapter 962 – #99. Three Thousand Concubines and Emperor Gaiden (20)
The Crown Prince, who finally got a chance to play an active part, showed off his swordsmanship skills that he had honed since childhood.
The performance of the crown prince was so unique that it could be recognized immediately if one watched the battlefield from afar.
‘That guy is definitely my son.’
It’s something to worry about.
I wasn’t sure if that guy would show as much activity as he boasted.
He is a child who is supposed to become the next great emperor and lead the country, so his lack of ability puts him in trouble.
All the nobles who taught the prince only praised him, so he knew he was talented, but it was unknown whether the real prince had the ability to match the compliments that came out of their mouths.
This place has status, and it would have been difficult for nobles to say something that upset the next emperor.
‘It seems that what the teachers said was not a lie. I thought I was just saying the right things in my mouth just because I noticed the prince.’
However, seeing the prince’s ability in person, I could understand why he was so confident.
The prince, who collapsed in shock when he first saw the battlefield, was performing unimaginably.
Such activities gathered and gathered to change the game of war.
‘It doesn’t look like today, but.’
I was still checking the dynamics of the enemy camp with the eyes of a sparrow.
And I found out that a few beings in the enemy camp were not concentrating on the battlefield.
‘Especially those who run around with priests…’
Anyone can see something suspicious, but can’t help but look behind it?
The sparrow watched the priests intently.
The priests were talking gossip among themselves, not even imagining that the sparrow was a spy.
‘I should have bought one with sound.’
If they had delivered the sound, I would have already known what they were up to.
While I was watching the situation with belated regret, I suddenly heard an urgent voice.
“It’s magic! Avoid!!”
The enemy wizards, who had been concerned since the beginning of the war, began to move in earnest.
The power of the magic exerted by the large-scale magic corps was enormous.
Whoops-!
Huge fireballs fell into the space where the soldiers were concentrated.
“Aaaaa!!!”
Since it was an inaccurate magic, the fireballs fell a little far from the densely populated area, but not everyone could see them and avoid them.
It’s a crowded battlefield, so even if you want to avoid it, wouldn’t it be impossible to move if there were people on either side?
In addition, it was not easy to determine exactly where the magic would fall.
When spears and knives are flying at my throat from all sides, how easy is it to pay attention to the top of my head?
That’s why soldiers shout whenever magic comes flying.
If you hear this voice, raise your head and see where the blinding magic is flying.
“The attack has begun in earnest. Let us begin as well. Call the prince.”
“Yes!”
After a while, the prince, who was stained with the madness of the battlefield, appeared.
“You took a bath in sweat.”
“Ha ha! Ha ha! I’m crazy… I didn’t expect time to pass like this.”
He gave the prince cool water and gave him time to calm down.
As soon as the prince took a breath, he asked me a question.
“Did I do something wrong?”
“No, they did a lot better than I thought. But the wizards moved in earnest and called them in.”
“Ah. Blind magic is dangerous.”
Since the prince was well aware of the dangers of magic, he quickly agreed.
“When I saw it earlier, there were so many wizards. How do you plan to stop them?”
Even now, the fireballs of the enemy wizards were causing many casualties in the crowded battlefield.
We couldn’t stand still either.
However, the method was changed to attacking the castle gate rather than blocking the fireballs fired by the enemy.
“The other side should have known by now that the gates were dangerous.”
“You sent the wizards through the gates!”
If they knew that the gate was dangerous, all the wizards who had fired fireballs at the soldiers would have no choice but to move towards the gate in a hurry.
You wouldn’t know how dangerous it is to break through the castle gate.
And when the wizards over there start protecting the gate, it becomes very difficult to break through.
“I didn’t expect there to be so many wizards in the Geos Empire.”
“There must be wizards dispatched from allied countries. It doesn’t make sense that even the Geos Empire can have such a large number of wizards.”
“It wouldn’t make sense to have mages like that and still not win the war.”
“And we’re in a position to do nonsense.”
“What do you plan to do?”
When the crown prince came to the battlefield, the war situation was not intense, so I had never seen me use my abilities.
Maybe that’s why the crown prince had a lot of questions about my abilities.
I was curious, so I asked a question…
He intentionally didn’t tell me the details so I was curious.
“Trust your father.”
When the prince heard me, his eyes grew to the size of fists.
Then he smiled brightly and nodded his head.
“Yes!”
Since the crown prince had such expectations, I felt I had to show my skills properly today.
Perhaps belatedly figuring out that we were aiming for the castle gate and moving the wizard, the fireballs pouring into the battlefield suddenly stopped at some point.
We retreated from the formation to avoid the threatening fireballs, and we were able to advance a little further aiming for that time.
On the other hand, near the gate, a bloody confrontation was going on between the enemy wizards trying to defend using protective magic and our wizards preparing large-scale magic to break through the gate.
Wooooo!!!!!
Mages’ large-scale magic is like a nuclear bomb.
A huge stone sharpened and sharpened rushes at the gate at great speed.
Wooooo!!!!!
Patter-!
Looking at its appearance, it seems that a sharp, well-cut stone should break the gate, but the gate did not budge and was firmly locked.
It was because the enemy wizards were putting a protective shield on the gate with all their might.
Because the damage was not transmitted properly and was absorbed by the shield, the gate could not be opened no matter how much we attacked.
On both sides, it was seen that they had climbed up the wall to attack the wizards.
To protect the mage, the soldiers held up their shields and stood firm with stiff faces.
It was time for us to act to protect the mage as well.
But I did not intend to sacrifice the soldiers.
To defend against their attack, our soldiers had no choice but to raise their shields, and could lose their lives from a blow with a powerful blow or catastrophic misfortune.
I don’t think it’s necessary to sacrifice soldiers to protect wizards.
“Attack!!!”
“Attack!!”
The enemy attack has begun.
The magic shot by the wizard flies along with the arrows of the soldiers.
It was an attack aimed at the place where the ally mage was waiting.
It didn’t matter if this attack failed meaninglessly.
I’ll pay for it just by distracting my concentration.
I heard that a high degree of concentration is required to use magic once.
The moment the soldiers around the wizard hurriedly lifted their shields.
“Stop!!!”
“Raise your shield!”
It was the moment everyone gritted their teeth and lifted their shields high into the sky.
After taking a few steps forward, he raised his hand in the air.
To be honest, this action itself was unnecessary, but shouldn’t we show our soldiers who created this miracle?
Wooooo!!!
A transparent circular shield covers our soldiers.
And the enemy’s attack was blocked by the shield, and at the same time it bounced back and flew towards the enemy at high speed.
“What, what?!”
“Ah!!!”
Quaang!!! Kwaaang!!!
Shu Shu Shu Shoot!
Arrows and magic attacks defenseless enemies.
A bizarre sight that you won’t believe even if you see it with your own eyes.
The malice they created to kill people was returned to them.
“Again!!! Another ridiculous magic!!”
“How the hell?”
Enemy mages staggered in shock from being reversed by their own magic, while our allied mages frowned and asked how that was possible.
If I hadn’t been the emperor, wouldn’t I have already been caught and robbed by them?
Magic is both strangely unrealistic and realistic, so the distinction between the impossible and the impossible is very clear.
As advanced science is like magic, even in this place where magic exists, it is following in the footsteps of science.
‘However, the speed is much slower than in our world.’
The fact that the number of people who can learn magic is limited must have slowed down the development.
In this world, magic was an advanced knowledge that was very difficult for commoners to access.
Since only a few nobles encountered and learned magic, the rate of development naturally slowed down, and the shock of seeing such an absurd sight as it is now was bound to be greater.
‘Like mankind who discovered fire.’
Anyway, with my performance, the game of war began to change radically.
The enemy mage, unable to believe what had happened to them, launched another magic attack, and I returned their magic again this time as well.
“Those guys, I think they can’t cast magic because they’re scared!”
Haha! I laughed out loud.
In fact, the number of times the wizards flew to the battlefield was drastically reduced, as if they were shocked that they were struck by their own magic.
And from a certain point on, I couldn’t find magic at all.
“Where have you been?”
It is true that the wizards suffered great damage as their magic reversed, but I do not think that the damage was so great that the castle gate was breached.
However, at some point, the castle gate could not receive our attack.
“I wonder if His Majesty’s attack caused more damage than I thought?”
I shook my head at the prince’s guess.
“It couldn’t have done that much damage.”
Only one or two wizards were injured.
In the end, I moved the sparrow once again to check the enemies’ movements.
I was chasing the priest, so I tried not to move if I could, but I couldn’t help it now.
