Chapter 142 – The Knights of the Light
142. Knights of Light
‘Anyway, it’s already tomorrow… ‘
Tomorrow morning, we will set out to rescue Prince Martin.
Ginoa’s defense was decided to be carried out by 500 mercenaries brought by Vivian, 400 vigilantes, and a total of about 1,000 soldiers, including 100 soldiers.
Considering that I originally intended to leave more than 500 elite soldiers, the situation has greatly improved.
‘Ha, but can I really do well?’
In fact, if there is a person who has changed the most lately, it would be me.
They say that a seat makes a person, and that was right.
Perhaps, if she had been an ordinary prostitute in the past, she might have said she didn’t know me and ran away.
But now I could never run away.
It is also because of her status as a saintess who is respected by countless people…
It was also because he couldn’t betray the many citizens of Ginoa.
In fact, in a way, I was acting like Lord Jinoa lately.
And the citizens loved it enthusiastically.
Anyway, for the sake of my soldiers and citizens, I could never escape.
If I run away like this, later on, Jinoa will end up in a mess.
There was no way the insidious second prince would leave Prince Martin’s stronghold alone with me.
‘That’s why I can never lose.’
That was when I was looking out the window and making a promise.
“Are you not sleeping?”
Vivian was getting out of bed.
And there were red marks all over her body.
Right away, it was the mark of being spanked by me.
I had no choice but to let it go because I hated it so much that I was trying to erase it with divine power.
“You are very worried… ?”
“Huh… ? Joe, a little… ?”
“Do not worry. Yena will do just fine.”
Then she hugged me tight.
“You know what… ?”
“What… ?”
“Actually, I was thinking of bringing Yena back when she becomes an ace at the tulip shop.”
“Huh… ? Go, suddenly talk like that… ?”
Whatever the case, her unexpected words lightened the atmosphere a little.
“Hehe, so I tried to raise the best spearman in the empire with Yena… It happened like this.”
“Heh, how are you going to bring me back after becoming an ace… ?”
“Um… Eh, like this… ?”
And then she immediately turned around.
Then, she was rocking her reddish ass from side to side.
“Hmmmm, boo, embarrassing… Everyone, please come back… “
“Poop… !!”
Thanks to her, all her stress and tension were blown away.
‘It’s really cute… ‘
“Huh, then let’s see where we can come back?”
I wrapped my whole body in divine power.
Then my energy rose again…
I’ll stab you… !!
“Ahhhhh… !! De, come in… !!”
She was able to spend her satisfying night with her.
***
Good! Good! Good! Good!
Now, we were leaving the city while being cheered by countless citizens of Ginoa.
“Be sure to win and come back!!”
“Saint!! You must win!!”
“I’ll trust you and wait!!”
Due to lack of time, we started immediately without a ceremony.
Well, in fact, the morale of the soldiers was so high that there was no need for a separate ceremony.
“Seeing this… Aren’t we like real generals?”
I was wearing dwarf-made armor and various auxiliary armor, and I was wearing a nice red cape.
Also, riding on the back of a unicorn that could be said to be a legendary horse, he was moving forward.
“Hmmmm, Stella-sama is cool too. Oh, by the way… I didn’t expect you to agree with me.
“What? Ah, yes, you are participating in the war yourself?”
Of course, when I went to the battlefield myself, there were quite a few people who opposed it.
From Vivian, her knights, even the knights of the Order of the Blue Rose…
I know I’m strong, but I’m just as important as that.
If Prince Martin is wrong… He was also a person who could be used as the last focal point.
However, only Stella supported my participation.
“Yena, it’s a fight that can only be won if you participate.”
It was because she knew better than anyone that I was needed, as she watched my performance from the nearest place when the Kyoguk attacked.
“Hmmmm, thank you.”
“What, with the obvious. Ah! Did you hear about that anyway? Talk about going to heaven. Just pretend you don’t know Understand?”
“Ah… That’s it… ?”
Strange rumors were spreading among the soldiers from superstitious mercenaries.
Right away, it was a story that if you die fighting for me, you will go to heaven unconditionally.
Of course, it was just an unfounded superstition.
But it was also true that it had a great effect.
Thanks to that, our army has higher morale than any other army.
It was high from the beginning, but on top of that, more weight was added.
Also surprisingly, even the mercenaries were showing incredibly high morale.
In fact, to mercenaries who don’t know when they will die, saying that they will go to heaven unconditionally must be really sweet.
Anyway, that’s why I skipped the ceremony.
It was a scam that was so high that it really didn’t have to be done.
“All right… Phew, I’ll pretend I don’t know.”
“Whoops, well thought out.”
Well, if you work hard enough to go to the real heaven later, you will have to scatter the rewards of heaven.
If he really wins and eats Vegas, there was nothing he couldn’t do.
‘Hmmmm, heck, if you do it with 100 people at the same time as a reward… Uh, how does it feel… ?’
Well, it’s a bit of a personal preference, though.
That’s how I received the cheers of countless citizens, and I participated in the war in earnest.
That was when the days started to get warmer.
***
A week later
Inside a colorful tent on a wide meadow.
There was a man with a gloomy expression.
Right now, the second prince who is terrifyingly pursuing Prince Martin. It was Maximilian Wittelsbach.
“Shit. You hardly listen.”
He looked very uncomfortable.
In fact, given his situation now that he had a chance to win, it was to the point of wondering why he would make such an expression.
“Let go of your anger. Majesty. Aren’t all the guys from the Bourbon Kingdom like that?”
“Haa, no matter how much, to think that only the knights would go ahead and charge… “
The reason why the prince was making such an expression was because of the knights of the Bourbon Kingdom.
It was true that they were of great help.
That’s because the opponent’s knights have changed a lot.
Thanks to that, Prince Martin escaped as if his tail was on fire.
However, the problem was that he was too careless.
Even now, they were the only ones who had informed them that they were going to sortie first.
“Don’t worry too much. After all, there are almost no enemy spearmen left… You won’t be able to stop the knights from charging.”
“Ha, yes. There’s no way I’ll miss it this time.”
This was the 2nd time in total.
That is, the number of times he missed Prince Martin.
The first one had to be missed because all of the opponent’s remaining knights rushed in, wasting time.
And the second was that ordinary soldiers gave their lives for Prince Martin.
Because they risked their lives to wait, Prince Martin was able to escape again.
“What the heck did they do, why did ordinary soldiers show such an appearance… “
But thanks to that, Prince Martin lost most of his spearmen.
Therefore, there were hardly any soldiers left to protect the mighty musketeers.
And knowing that, the knights of the Bourbon Kingdom rushed like that.
“However… I don’t know if I’ll say something else later. To ask for more land If they even catch Martin… Whoa, that would be very difficult.”
“That… “
“Whew, I can’t help it. Let us also speed up the march.”
“Ah, I see. Majesty.”
Before they knew it, they were already talking as if they were emperors.
I was already worried about things after the war.
Due to the quick appearance of the knights of the Bourbon Kingdom, a great crisis was coming to Prince Martin.
***
“Hoo-wook, whoo-wook. Lord, I’m dying… “
“Cheer up a little! It’s not long before Ginoa is left!”
Prince Martin was shouting loudly, but the soldier named Tom looked exhausted.
“This time I have to apply… “
Tom thought that if he were to be pursued by his enemies again, he would support him.
That is, to protect Prince Martin by sacrificing his life.
“I am still sad to die, but… Still, if you do this, you will be able to go to heaven… “
Strange rumors spread among the soldiers before they knew it.
It was rumored that if she gave her life for her friend, Prince Martin, the saintess would be moved and lead her to her heaven.
No one knew where these rumors had spread.
However, Tom was thinking that even if he couldn’t actually go to heaven, if it was that prince, it would be okay to sacrifice his life.
“A person like that should be the emperor… “
The aspect of Prince Martin who was with him was great.
In fact, he was almost on the verge of becoming emperor.
Anyway, as Tom was thinking that way, he began to hear something strange.
Two-! Two-! Two-! Two-!
And it was a sound Tom knew very well.
“I am the enemy!!”
“They are enemy knights!!”
It was the sound of the fearsome knights of the Bourbon Kingdom approaching.
“Whoa, I didn’t expect it to come this soon… “
Tom sighed.
Also, it wasn’t just Tom who showed up like this.
All of them were as desperate as Tom, or with desperate expressions on their faces.
“Cheer up everyone!! Remaining spearmen step forward and form squares, musketeers prepare to fire!!”
Only Prince Martin was not giving up, but everyone knew.
That means it’s over now.
After a while, the appearance of the enemies soon began to appear.
They were only about 500 knights, but their majesty was truly amazing.
In fact, even if you rushed with that number, the soldiers of the allies would have easily collapsed.
Morale was so low, there was no way to stop the enemies.
And the enemies seemed to know that well.
500 knights began to rush towards the allied soldiers with fearsome momentum.
Two-!! Two-!! Two-!! Two-!!
Tom thought that the sound of the ground shaking was really frightening.
In fact, it felt as if the ground was shaking, and I couldn’t keep my head up.
“Ah, we have to step forward… Only then can we go to heaven… “
Still, he closed his eyes and began to step forward.
It was to receive the rush first.
“Ugh… !”
Suddenly, the enemies were approaching right in front of the allies.
And that was the same as saying that the enemies had arrived right in front of Tom.
“Tea, I have to stab the window… !”
Tom barely held out his spear at them, his trembling hands.
However, to the knights of the Bourbon Kingdom, it was just ridiculous.
Just like that, the enemy was about to decapitate the soldier in front.
Taaaaang-!!!
Suddenly, a gunshot rang in Tom’s ears.
I’m sorry… !!
To say that the shots were fired by his comrades behind him, it must have been the sound coming from the left.
Tom involuntarily turned his head and looked to his left.
Then an unbelievable sight to behold.
A dark-haired woman, her whole body covered in holy light, was riding on her white horse.
“Stop, saintess… !!”
It was the saintess that Tom and the soldiers all respected.
And behind her, hundreds of knights were following.
Also surprisingly…
All of their bodies, too, were shining brightly with holy light.
“Everyone turn around!!”
It was the moment when the Knights of Light, surrounded by pure white light, appeared in history.
