Chapter 112 – Armed Conflict
After hearing the explosion, I instantly stunned the two royal guards who hurriedly rushed in, and found the seal of the Kingdom of Oz in the depths of the explosion.
Originally, all orders within the Kingdom of Oz were given by the king’s edict with the seal of seal.
Because the only person in power is the king.
In other words, when the reverse revolution occurred, the seal was one of the key items to be secured first.
I learned this in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms when I was young.
After taking the seal in my arms, I walked out of the audience room with quick steps.
A shout is heard from far away.
Not much time had passed since the explosion, but it seemed that the royal guards in the palace were coming here.
‘I have to give Barnet love and Dorothea time to move.’
I didn’t honestly go down the hallway, I jumped straight out the window.
I waited for a while after confirming that the royal guards who came running belatedly entered the throne room.
After a while, perhaps realizing the death of the king, he shouted in a loud voice.
“Find! Find the assassin who killed His Majesty the King!”
I, who was hanging under the window and listening to the voice in real time, felt that the encirclement was about to form, so I flew through the sky and escaped.
***
King of Oz, Oscar von Omaha.
He had a brilliant son who grew older.
Commonly known as the Prince of Oz.
Prince Tippetarius.
I knew that the man would soon take over the capital.
No matter how much me, Vanessa, and Dorothea were celestial longevity, they had no choice but to be pushed back in front of a war of attrition based on quantity.
Because the number of troops belonging to the 1st Division, the most elite unit of the Kingdom of Oz, is 10,000.
Basically we’re going to use a hit and run tactic.
Anyway, since King Oscar is dead, the capital city is bound to fall into chaos for the time being.
So, as planned at the beginning, after safely escaping from the capital, joining the Demon King’s army and returning again.
Of course, before that, I had to reduce the number of heads a bit.
“Let’s see.”
I landed on the bell tower at a fairly high place in the royal castle.
Busy running soldiers, knights, and royal guards.
Soon, Vanessa and Dorothea will cause an uproar outside, but before that, they needed a hint of spice.
Dozens of magic popped up in my head, but there was only one magic to use in this situation.
After deciding what to use, I raised my hands above my head.
“Howl. Flurry.”
If there was a difference from before, it was that I didn’t feel the exhaustion I felt when most of the mana I could use was sucked out at once.
The total amount of mana increased after reaching the 7th rank, but it was decisively due to the auxiliary effect of the Unlimited Power worn around the neck.
“Resonate. Thunderbolt.”
After the short spell casting, the mana of the wind generated from my body began to envelop the entire castle.
As a result, dark clouds gather in broad daylight.
A cool breeze brushed his cheeks, unsuitable for the season of spring.
Before the storm
Only the results will show whether I am lame or you are lame.
Kurleung-
Perhaps feeling the strangeness of the sudden change in weather, one of the soldiers busily wandering around under my feet looked up and spotted me.
“It’s a bell tower! An assassin is hiding in the bell tower!”
Information that spreads immediately.
The soldiers who had been scavenging all over the castle started flocking towards the bell tower where I was standing.
“Shoot the arrow!”
When someone gave an order, the archers rushed in and shot arrows at me, but the tower was too high to reach.
Some of the soldiers start climbing the stairs inside the bell tower, but it takes a while to get up.
In the meantime, quite a number of soldiers seemed to have flocked like ants, so I murmured, combining the lightning in my left hand with the wind in my right hand.
Funguma God’s Oui
Zodiac storm
Immediately after,
Quaaaaa!!
Along with the sudden downpour, a strong wind and rain began to blow on the ground.
In that state, I gently waved the index finger of my left hand through which the current was flowing.
Quarreung—!
Then, a bolt of lightning falls to the ground from the thundercloud that had been waiting for a long time.
As if I had become a conductor conducting an orchestra, I began to control the storm by waving my hands.
“Hold on! Hold onto something and hold on until the rain and wind stop!”
Even at a glance, the soldiers on the ground can be seen in confusion.
Even more so, buried in the sound of the strong wind, it was difficult to communicate with each other.
Soldiers under the bell tower rolled around in the strong wind, which was hard to point at.
Being struck by lightning in such a wet state, more and more people collapse with foam at the mouth as if it were contagious.
While I was enjoying the hardships of the kingdom army from above, controlling the weather like that, the breathless knight pointed his sword at me and said, as if he had finally climbed the stairs.
“That’s it!”
“Five.”
As if he had run faster than anyone else, he seemed to be having a hard time even pretending to be breathing heavily.
“If you surrender obediently, you won’t see pointless blood!”
I thought it was interesting to see the knight who was out of breath and would collapse if I pushed him, so I crossed my arms and asked.
“So what crime have I committed?”
Then, the knight holding the sword paused for a moment, then folded his fingers one by one and answered sincerely.
“King murder, property damage, hero impersonation and many more!”
“Oh. King Slayer.”
It’s a pretty catchy title.
And it seems that someone thought that I was impersonating the fact that I honestly said that I was Kaldrash, the magician of the hero’s party.
Maybe I could take advantage of this situation, so I took out a wooden mask from my bosom and put it on my face and covered my voice for acting.
“Keukkeug, you managed to realize that I’m not the mage Kaldrash. Yes! In fact, I’m the leader of the Foreign Legion under the direct control of the Demon King! I’m the Elder Lich Patlash!”
“As expected! He was the main keeper of the Demon King’s army!”
The knight made an angry expression as if he had expected it.
“How dare you insult the late warrior and his comrades?! Even if Heaven forgives, I will not forgive you!”
Seeing him continue to say cool-looking lines without being able to take care of himself, it seemed that he was quite absorbed in chivalry, so I gave him time to realize the reality.
“I can turn you into powder with just one gesture like this. But why do I have to surrender?”
“Keuuh! Cowardly! Let’s fight fair and square with the sword!”
… Why me?
I looked at the articles that seemed to be lacking somewhere, and then I remembered the fact that the articles these days are full of kids who can’t read.
Oh well then I can’t help it
“Sir Mikhail! Sir Mikhail is holding the assassin!”
While I was playing with him, it seemed that the other soldiers had almost climbed the tower, so I jumped off the bell tower.
“Stupid! He chose to commit suicide!”
The knight called Sir Mitchell by the soldiers was surprised and hurriedly ran, but my body had already been in a free fall down there for a long time.
When I met his eyes, I lifted his middle finger and then activated the whirlwind goal.
My body naturally soars into the sky.
Appreciating the bemused face of the knight who became a dog chasing chickens, I leisurely climbed over the castle wall.
***
Heavenly Earth Network.
It is a term often used in martial arts.
It is a four-character idiom meaning a net that covers the sky and the earth, not a cloth that actually mobilizes a thousand people to surround the enemy.
No matter how hard I tried, it was difficult in many ways to get out of the Royal Capital, where the entire 1st Division and the Royal Guard were lurking everywhere.
If it flies in the sky, it will be a good target for military wizards and archers.
So we planned ahead.
After I kill King Oscar and run away from the castle, the other two will each cause a commotion in a different place.
Since the signal was already given with colorful fireworks, the two of them will soon move.
Hiding in a barn to evade the pursuit of the soldiers walking around with lights on in their eyes, I saw a large pillar of flame soaring into the sky from a distance that anyone could tell it was Dorothea’s work, and climbed onto the back of Gold Run.
Unlike Dorothea, who fights relatively brilliantly, Vanessa, who is basically a swordsman, won’t be able to tell from a distance what she’s fighting.
So, having guessed the timing roughly, I tried to open the door to get out of the barn, but I couldn’t help but be surprised.
Quaaaaagh!
It was because a huge sword like a lie was engraved on the wall of the southern district that Vanessa was supposed to take charge of, along with a roar.
… Maybe the strongest of the three of us was Vanessa?
