Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 334
◈ 334. [STAGE 14] Dogs on the wire (2)
“As expected, I knew it would be like this?”
Mason muttered that and put strength into his handcuffed arms..
“Inhale!”
Tendons sprouted from the thick muscles of both arms.,
Quack-!
I ripped off the handcuffs in one go..
Mason threw the iron handcuffs, bent like taffy sticks, on the floor and grinned..
“You're a master who already betrayed His Highness Fernandez once. There's no way he'll come back here easily. i knew.”
Lucas frowned..
“I betrayed Fernandez.?”
“Isn't it??”
Mason raised a thick finger and pointed at Lucas..
“Master, you stood on the side of His Highness Fernandez and betrayed His Highness Ashe... … . After that, he betrayed His Highness Fernández again and joined His Highness Ashe's side..”
“…….”
“Your life is full of betrayal..”
Mason spoke again to Lucas, who couldn't refute it..
“That's McGregor's nature as a swordsman..”
“McGregor's nature... … I said.”
“Your ancestor was also beheaded for showing his traitorous teeth to the imperial family a hundred years ago. Isn't that right??”
It was true. The McGregor family, which once produced the best swordsmen in the empire, has since fallen down the road..
Unable to achieve any significant achievements, he got caught up in the power struggles of other nobles and was consumed by a causeless power struggle, which brought him down to this point..
“……is it so. That's right, Uncle Mason. McGregor has the blood of a rabid dog that does not recognize its owner..”
As Lucas laughed self-deprecatingly, Mason laughed and pointed at himself..
“And having studied under the McGregor family, I also learned that nature..”
“……That means. Does this mean that Uncle Mason also betrayed me??”
“That's correct. young master.”
Mason shrugged his broad shoulders..
“Who would have encouraged the late MacGregor family, who only knew anything about the sword, to start a business he knew nothing about??”
“……!”
“Who was the one who encouraged His Highness Fernández to go into debt when the matriarch's business was in danger??”
Mason raised his hand and pointed to himself..
“When the head of the family, who could not pay his debt, betrayed His Highness Fernández and tried to join another family, who else would 'get rid of him' by disguising it as an accident??”
Lucas's molars were tightly closed..
Actually, I had a vague suspicion. She didn't know she would admit it so openly..
“Mason, you……!”
“Wow, don't say too much. young master. I just lived honestly as a prosecutor and as a human being..”
Mason grinned..
“I just moved the enemy to find an owner who would give me more power and more money..”
“…….”
“They expose their bellies and submit to those who are stronger. Isn’t that a dog’s nature??”
Lucas' hand holding the sword gained strength..
okay. In the end, no matter how you wrap it up, knights are a group of people who make a living through murder..
McGregor is also just a pack of crazy hounds..
they are dogs.
With a leash held by high-ranking humans, all they do is bite according to orders... … dog.
“……Mason. He said he knew I wouldn't go back to Fernandes' side again..”
With murderous intent, Lucas slowly chewed and spat it out..
“Then why? Why did you approach me again and try to cajole me??”
“Why would you do it??”
Mason answered as he ripped off the handcuffs of his subordinates one by one..
“Are you sure you don't know? Why would we show up on purpose? All you have to do is hide in the shadows and move around..”
“…….”
“There were many purposes, but the biggest one was to draw attention to us..”
With their hands free, the special forces members warmed up and faced Lucas..
“We pretend that we are the only infiltrators and then carry out a diversionary operation to seize the real target..”
Lucas' eyes widened inside the helmet..
“no way……!”
“young master. The Aegis Special Forces currently dispatched to Crossroads here are…….”
Mason grinned, showing his teeth..
“There are a total of 20 people..”
“……!”
“Where is everyone else except us??”
Lucas glanced towards the upper branch of Wintersilver..
As Ash had planned, are they targeting Lark's wife and sons??
“No, no. That's not it. Think about it carefully, master..”
Mason spoke in a teasing tone, perhaps amused..
“What does His Highness Fernández really want? What is the mission we have been given? Didn't you tell the master??”
“……?!”
Only then did Lucas turn his head toward the manor house..
“No way, my lord……?!”
ash.
Ash, who is lying down in pain right now, is in danger.……!
As Lucas tried to run towards the manor house, Mason and the special forces blocked his path..
“No, master..”
Ttuduk. Tduduk.
Mason chuckled as he unclenched his massive fist..
“24Now that you, who are protecting His Majesty the Prince of Time, have been separated from you, you have a wonderful opportunity... … would we miss it?”
“Move over, Mason..”
Grumbling-!
The sword energy burned in the [Karma Eater] in Lucas' hand. Lucas chewed fiercely and spat it out..
“If you get out of the way now, I'll kill you a little less painfully..”
“Ahaha. What should I do with this?.”
Mason slapped his stomach humorously..
“Young Master's shallow sword skills won't be able to pierce Uncle Mason's thick stomach..”
“Don't be bluff, Mason.……!”
Going to school-!
Lucas hit the ground and rushed forward..
“Get out of my way-!”
The leg strength was so strong that the snow that had accumulated on the ground where Lucas stepped was all dug back and scattered behind him..
In the blink of an eye, Lucas's long sword, which had penetrated Mason's front, was brought down horizontally..
It was a blow so sharp that the falling snow was cut all at once along the sword path..
but.
“Fuck you!”
“……!”
As if he had expected it, Mason quickly rolled back and narrowly escaped the sword's range..
It was an incredibly light movement that came from such a thick physique..
At that time, a guard came running from the central prison..
It was one of the guards that Lucas had defeated earlier. Lucas thought the guard was looking for an escaped convict, but no..
The guard threw Mason's greatsword in his arms, and Mason easily caught it..
The guard distributed other weapons he had brought with him to the special forces..
It was another Aegis special task force member who had infiltrated by pretending to be a guard..
From the beginning, Mason was captured with a means of escaping prison..
“Haha! This makes my blood boil.”
Mason lightly spun the huge sword around like a stick of corn and grinned savagely like a wild bear..
“I can't believe I could kill the master I once considered a son with these hands.!”
Lucas didn't answer and rushed at me again. With a swarm of her dazzling light, the [Karmiter], engulfed in fierce sword energy, was aimed at Mason's neck..
and,
visor-!
Mason swung his greatsword face to face and took the blow head-on..
Mason's greatsword was also enveloped in a heavy halo of light. Lucas gritted his teeth..
It was the sword style of the McGregor family..
As expected from being the family's instructor, Mason was also extremely skilled at imbuing his sword with magic..
“Although I have lived my whole life changing masters and abusing false loyalty,.”
Mason shouted, pushing away the swords that were in contact with each other..
“Even the skills are not a lie! young master-!”
Tsukaak!
Lucas was momentarily pushed back and fell backwards..
“Pfft!”
After correcting his posture in the air, Lucas landed with snow dust scattered and looked ahead.,
From all directions, special forces members were holding their weapons and pointing at them..
Phuwak-!
Sword lights, snow powder, and blood poured out in all directions..
***
Crossroads Manor House.
Knock knock.
Ader rushed out at the sound of a knock, opened the door, and looked outside. There were merchants standing there with sad smiles on their faces..
“hello. We are merchants from the East. It's because I want to start a new trade with the lord.…….”
“Ah, the lord is sleeping now because he is sick..”
Ader, who looked back inside the mansion, looked forward again..
“Sorry, but come back next time.…….”
Clap.
Before he could even speak, a crossbow was aimed at Ader’s forehead..
Ader, who was blinking blankly and facing the crossbow, tilted his head..
“……that's interesting. This is the first time this has happened.”
Going to school!
An arrow fired from a crossbow landed between Ader's eyes. Ader's floating body rolled down the hallway of the mansion..
bang-!
The special forces disguised as merchants who kicked in the door and came inside entered the mansion, quickly aiming their crossbows at the surrounding area..
“Start the search! Find Prince Ash.”
“1Search through every floor!”
All the heroes left to fight the defensive battle, and the few guards were sent to protect Lark's wife and sons..
There were virtually no troops guarding the manor house. There was no means of resisting external invasion..
“find the prince!”
“Besides the prince, all the servants and maids were brought here.!”
The special forces found the few occupants of the mansion, subdued them, and forced them into the parlor..
Aiming the crossbow at the soldiers, the special forces member asked the unit commander:.
“What should I do?”
“There is no need to kill in vain.”
The workers' faces brightened at those words. But my face turned pale when I heard what the unit commander said next..
“But these guys saw our faces. Just in case, I'll have to kill it..”
“All right.”
Slam! Clap!
The crossbows were ready to fire all at once. The workers raised their hands up and screamed for help..
But the special forces pulled the trigger of the crossbow without even blinking.-
Sigh! Boo Boo Boo Book!
Ader, who rushed in, caught the shower of arrows with his body..
“It hurts!”
Ader, who looked like a hedgehog, vomited blood while standing. The special task force members panicked and took a step back..
“What is this guy??”
“Isn't that the guy you killed at the door earlier??”
“It was clearly aligned to the forehead, but how could it be done?…….”
An even more surprising thing happened next..
Although Ader was in pain, she began pulling arrows out of her body one by one. Then the pierced flesh was filled and the torn skin healed..
Ader laughed through her bloody mouth..
“I don't know if you've heard of the curse of eternal life.……?”
Fu shoot! Push shot!
Poop! Puff poop poop!
The special forces opened fire once more..
Ader rolled around on the floor in the shape of a hedgehog again and woke up again, groaning..
“Look, I don't die, and I set the resurrection point to this mansion so it plays in real time, but it hurts.…….”
The commander of the special task force clicked his tongue..
“I've heard it before. This guy is the person of interest, Eternal..”
“What should I do? I can't kill him. Should I set the whole mansion on fire??”
“Then, they will notice something wrong and reinforcements will return from the defensive battle. It needs to be handled neatly.…….”
It was then.
“I found the prince! Found in a bedroom on the 3rd floor!”
“……There's no need to take any more time..”
The superior gestured outside..
“Leave it alone and leave quickly. let's go.”
“What about this monster??”
“I was told that I couldn't use any power other than eternal life anyway. Just subdue it. he won't be able to do anything.”
patter!
The special forces fired crossbow shots at Ader once more and then rushed outside..
“Cough, this is difficult.…….”
Ader muttered helplessly, pinned to the wall like a rag..
“If I had been in my prime, I would have stopped it without a problem, but since I changed jobs to a director, I lost all of my power in this world.…….”
I could see the special forces quickly leaving the mansion through the window..
Ash was being transported wrapped in a blanket. Even in this situation, Ash was sleeping soundly with a feverish face..
“……Sorry, my agent. Because I'm such a nerd.”
Ader smiled bitterly with blood-soaked lips..
“Once again, adversity is yours.…….”
