84Disaster for which we were not prepared (5)

Distance between the castle gate and Baron Macleary.

It was far.

Passing through the swarming enemy forces in front of you is impossible according to common sense, but in Roman's world, it was different..

‘The enemy commander is letting down his guard..’

Is it because the Cairo Kingdom’s military power was poor?.

Baron McCleary had come forward a little to observe the situation..

Of course, that distance alone was enough to say it was far away, but it wasn't so far that it couldn't be approached at all..

Changed plans in an instant.

Originally, the priority was to secure space at the gate until Stephen and his soldiers could set up the barbed wire fence, but the moment Roman made eye contact with his opponent, he kicked the ground..

‘kill the commander.’

How to end a war quickly.

As experienced in countless battlefields, the moment the commander's head is blown off, the enemy has no choice but to collapse at once..

“Block it!”

“The enemy is alone!”

The soldiers of Hector's Kingdom were angry..

When Roman dared to come out of the castle alone, they attacked him all at once with fierce faces..

Just watching the scene where you get tangled up with countless enemies took my breath away..

Weapons flying from all directions will take your life the moment you let your guard down..

However, none of the attacks worked on Roman..

Tatatang.

Deflected all attacks.

Not only that, but the soldiers who tried to attack were already screaming and falling down as their limbs were cut off..

hundreds of enemies.

It was common sense that they had an advantage..

Obviously, Roman had to fall, but as time went by, the casualties among the soldiers only increased..

“Get out of the way!”

“I won't let you run wild anymore!”

Hector's knights.

After receiving orders from Baron McCleary, they rushed at full speed..

They were not ordinary knights.

They were aura swordsmen who knew how to manifest auras, and different types of auras were formed on their swords..

Crumbling.

Mana exploded.

With attacks coming at the same time, Hector's soldiers were confident that they had defeated Roman this time..

however.

‘Cheonma Sword Technique, Lee Cho-sik.’

I took a breath..

Mana boiled inside, and an aura spewed out towards the enemies running toward them..

Heavenly Demon's Strike.

Hector's knights, who had promised victory, disappeared without even knowing what the outcome would be..

Kwakwakwakkwak.!

It was shockingly powerful..

The knights' aura was instantly scattered like dust blown by the wind, and their powerful bodies armed with steel armor were reduced to shapeless pieces of meat, like paper being torn apart..

everyone was mesmerized.

Only then did they realize that the being they were dealing with was a monster they could not dare to attack..

The reason I rushed in even after seeing hundreds of enemies was because I judged that there was no problem..

Roman Dmitry.

Fights of hundreds to one were common in Baek Jung-hyuk's life..

They were always at a disadvantage in numbers, even in battles with those who were called martial arts experts, not with small children like this..

I received advice from Stephen.

I just decided that there was no need to push yourself unnecessarily..

But now.

Having confirmed that the commander was within range, Roman attempted to end the battle in his own way..

crackling.

kicked the ground.

Suddenly.

In front of me was Baron McCleary..

He looked at Roman with a shocked look on his face..

Slaughtered dozens of soldiers and tore apart Hector's aura swordsmen with one blow..

It was not included in Hector's plan to attack Cairo by surprise, and Roman Dmitry's force was so powerful that even if calculated, it could not be stopped..

The corners of my eyes trembled..

His mind was screaming at him to run away immediately, but at that moment, he remembered the command he had heard before leaving Hector's kingdom..

‘There is no need to forcefully capture the defense line. However, take as much time as possible. We need enough time for our plans.’

“fuck.”

only 1 hour.

Unreasonable attacks led to variables.

Baron McCleary drew his sword..

He is also a prosecutor.

2As a swordsman who knows how to use the aura of the castle, I planned to do my best to avoid being left as a failure in the operation..

“I am Baron Macleary of Hector! I want you…….”

flash.

Phuwak!

one flash.

The moment Roman arrived, Baron McCleary's head was blown off and blood spurted out like a fountain..

His judgment was arrogant.

Since Hector's knights could not withstand a single blow, he should have made the decision to flee..

Commander's Death.

Roman raised his head high in the sky and shouted in a voice full of mana..

“killed the enemy commander!”

That moment.

Like a lie, everyone on the battlefield stopped moving..

* * *

The atmosphere was cold and frozen..

Hector's soldiers.

they didn't know what to do.

They still had enough strength to surrender immediately even if their commander was killed..

a confusing situation.

The one who broke the silence was once again Roman Dmitry..

Suddenly!

“Wow.”

Roman cut down the enemy in front of him..

It was a judgment that went beyond common sense..

Usually, if the enemy commander was killed, the common choice was to use that as an excuse to urge the soldiers to surrender..

This might have been the case if the opponent had been the Barco family..

In reality, Roman ended the situation by killing Barco and his father, the culprits of the war, but the situation was different now..

Hector.

They attacked without warning.

Not only was it a war without justification, but other defense lines were still under attack by Hector's kingdom..

Roman raised his voice..

“Soldiers of the Kingdom of Cairo, listen! We cannot afford to take prisoners. And now, other defense lines are also being attacked by Hector's kingdom. If we keep them alive now. It will definitely come back as an enemy. Risk your life and execute your enemies here, even if it means shedding blood.!”

The war with Barco.

In a larger sense, it can be said to be a bone-and-flesh conflict..

Since it is a conflict in the same kingdom, as long as the commander is dealt with, soldiers who admit defeat will not return as a risk factor later..

however.

Hector's soldiers are different..

Even if Baron Macleary is dead.

As members of Hector, they have an obligation to fight until the end..

blast furnace.

I didn't recommend surrender in the first place..

Even if the cornered rats had their arms ripped off and bleeding, they needed to be dealt with now that they had gained momentum..

Being on opposite sides.

That alone was enough reason to be cruel..

At the sight of Roman slaughtering his enemies unilaterally, Cairo's soldiers cheered and poured out of the castle..

“Follow Roman Dmitry!”

“Kill all of Hector’s remnants.!”

blocked the escape route.

Hector's soldiers cornered.

They realized that they could not return from this place alive..

henry albert.

By the time he arrived, the tide had already turned..

I definitely heard that the 5th defense line was on the verge of collapse, but the sight that unfolded before my eyes was completely different..

“……What is this?.”

outside the castle.

A one-sided massacre was taking place..

The soldiers of Cairo, who were supposed to take advantage of Mercury, attacked the enemy with evil faces like men possessed..

How did this happen?.

I couldn't understand it in my head.

One thing was certain: Roman Dmitry's presence stood out even in the midst of a fierce battle..

‘Roman Dmitry is this strong?.’

Literally.

It was an overwhelming presence..

Hector's soldiers were cornered and rushed in, but the moment they faced Roman, their limbs were torn apart..

Numbers were virtually meaningless.

No matter how much was involved, the outcome was always the same: death..

Before.

Henry had seen Ranker fight before..

Even back then, I thought Ranker was a being on a different level, but even the glorified being in my memory was nothing compared to Roman..

The god who defeated Homer.

At only 25 years old, Henry was sure to be weaker than rumored, but Roman Dmitry felt that the rumors had been underestimated..

and.

Roman's soldiers were also formidable..

In particular, characters such as Chris, Kevin, and Pookie showed a level of force that was hard to believe they were mere soldiers..

Now it's clear.

A situation different from the news.

The variable originated from Roman Dmitry.

‘……I understand why my uncle told me to become friends with Roman Dmitry somehow..’

I swallowed hard..

My uncle was right..

Birth didn't matter.

Roman Dmitry.

It was a monster that would devour the Kingdom of Cairo at any moment..

Henry hurriedly shouted to the soldiers who were still frozen..

“Help Roman Dmitry right now! You have to let go of the other bastards and protect Roman as your top priority.!”

Henry giving orders.

Meanwhile, he followed the soldiers at the very back..

* * *

the situation has been resolved.

Hector's soldiers did not fight to the end.

Fearing that they might be annihilated if things continued like this, they abandoned their comrades who had their backs and ran away..

In the process.

most are dead.

Roman followed until the end and killed the enemy, but there was no way to kill all the enemies running away at the same time..

When the battle ended.

Chris ran straight to Roman..

“Chris and 30 others. no deaths.”

a fierce battle.

Fortunately, no one died.

But that didn't mean everyone was safe..

Basically, everyone had at least one wound, and those who had more severe injuries had red-hot flesh visible through the torn skin..

Even with such wounds, I didn’t even shed a moan..

In particular, Henderson was probably not used to such large-scale battles, but his face was covered in cold sweat and he kept his mouth shut..

“Good job. Treat wounds using potions..”

“All right.”

There was no special congratulations.

But that alone.

Stephen, who was nearby, couldn't help but be shocked..

‘……Potions were supplied to all soldiers.?!’

potion).

The healing potions produced at the Magic Tower boast a considerable amount of money, even at the lowest level..

however.

Roman soldiers used expensive potions without hesitation..

At first glance, it looked like it was above intermediate level, but I poured the entire bottle into the wound..

Chii Iik.

The flesh was burning and gave off an acrid smell..

A wound that heals quickly.

Stephen seemed to understand why the soldiers blindly trusted Roman Dmitry..

‘Overwhelming military power, bold judgment, and a heart that is not stingy with the soldiers. The trust of Roman Dmitry and his soldiers was not just formed. Since he is this kind of person, even if he has to jump into a fire pit, he will be trusted and followed..’

The exclamation was short..

Roman said to Stephen.

“You must settle the battlefield here and prepare for the second attack. Also, soldiers who are knowledgeable about the geography of the Southern Front are needed..”

“……Are you really planning on leaving right away??”

“The war is not over yet. Even as we find peace, elsewhere the soldiers of the Kingdom of Cairo are dying..”

the war has begun.

one win.

Doesn't mean victory in war.

Roman showed a fierce look in his eyes..

“I have no intention of just watching in vain as Hector’s kingdom tramples this land. Until they kill all the guys from Hector's kingdom who crossed the border. I don't plan on stopping..”

In those words.

Stephen got goosebumps for a moment..

It was clearly a fight at a disadvantage for Cairo..

The attack on Hector's palace was a surprise, and Mercury's advantage was lost..

but.

For some reason, I felt like this man in front of me would really accomplish something big..

Roman shouted to the soldiers..

“I'll give you 10 minutes from now. To be fully prepared to set out on the road.”

“yes.”

Roman soldiers following orders.

2 hours after war broke out.

The 5th line of defense succeeded in conquering Mercury..

And that was the first variable that Hector's kingdom did not expect, and the starting point of another variable..
