Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 231
When the offer first came in, I thought that one of the idiot subordinates would fall for the nobleman's nonsense and end up dead..
It was only after the magic sword was placed in his hand that he realized that this was an opportunity that would never come again in his life. After a detailed plan and agreement were reached, he had to undergo more intensive training and rehearsals than when he was working as a mercenary group, but he was able to feel it because of that..
this is a real opportunity.
It was purely coincidental that he came into contact with Count Bocha, but in any case, if the rebellion he is preparing succeeds, he can make a big profit. Even if they fail, the material support he is investing in them will remain in some form and provide long-term help. Perhaps he could escape to another country with frequent conflicts and continue his mercenary activities again..
Kantala, who was more affluent than ever and was serving as the leader of a group of thieves with no hesitation in stealing, lived his life waiting and dreaming of a fulfilling and bright future that would reward him for a life that was no different from the gutter..
"Fuck, I have no fucking chance in my life.."
Actually, I had the chance..
Even up until the moment when he lost contact with Count Bocha, he had a choice. Kantala, who had grasped the situation and was certain that his regular contacts had been cut off, had the opportunity to lead his men and flee. If he had just headed to another country as he had planned in advance, he would have been able to work as a mercenary group with a good reputation. But it wasn't just the magic sword he was holding..
Gateway City Englem Attack Operation Plan.
When Count Bosha's rebellion began, Kantala's greed was fueled by the few sheets of paper that described how and when to infiltrate the city using ancient underground waterways in case Englem's personnel did not cooperate..
"I should have torn it up instead of being swayed by that piece of piece of paper, damn it.."
Since we already have a perfect plan, let's go for a big hit with the feeling that we're saving money..
It was a complacent decision. Entry was easy, but the city's defenses were more systematic than expected, and in the end, not only did they lose a lot of their subordinates, not to mention a proper harvest, but they were only able to escape when they reached a point where they couldn't even escape due to the massacre caused by the runaway magic sword..
However, what awaited Kantala, who escaped like that, was their only escape, as they collapsed without any rat or bird knowing. It wasn't just one or two rocks that had fallen, but a certain section was completely buried, so no matter how much the pile of stones was dug up, the road could not be opened..
There was no way to know and it was not important to know whether he was planning to use them as troops but installed a device to block the escape route out of fear of betrayal, or whether he was trying to use their attack in reverse to subdue them and win the favor of high-ranking Englem officials..
The Kantala bandits were trapped, and Kantala's will was being tested every moment by the runaway magic sword attached to her right arm..
"Great, Captain. Surrender even now..."
"This fucking bastard!"
When Kantala swung the magic sword, the entire upper body of the subordinate who had made a cool-headed decision and spoke out was blown away..
No, more accurately, it was chewed up. As soon as the flesh made of iron and the vein-like sword body trembled, steel teeth formed and chewed and swallowed the person in the blink of an eye. At first, he pretended to cut like a sword, but not anymore..
"I!! Because I used a magic sword! Do you think you can buy it if I just sell it?! You fucking bastard!"
The magic sword is swung again, targeting the lower body that was falling helplessly to the floor. However, the magic sword did not chew the lower body. Just smash it like a giant club.
-bang! bang!
"die! Die you traitor bastard!!"
The thieves who were watching that scene couldn't even breathe properly. There is a loud roar that gives you goosebumps just by hearing it, along with a strange sound of laughter. It was not a sound coming from Kantala's mouth, but a sound coming from the sword body of the demon sword..
After the massacre, the magic sword clearly encroached on its users..
"Huh...huh..."
Kantala's eyes and face, which seemed fine until she started talking to herself, are now bloodshot. The magic sword that had encroached on her right lower arm due to the violence just now was now encroaching on her upper arm. The thieves didn't wonder what would happen if they were completely engulfed by that sword..
More blood would have to be shed to find out, because they were the only victims here. However, when he killed Kantala with a bow, the magic sword struck down arrows and crossbows and quickly killed the attacker, so he could not even dream of resisting..
Either die from a magic sword, or die from the city's troops. In the end, it was clear that their miserable lives would end in this gloomy underground waterway..
"Say it again! Who led you all this way! How dare you betray me like this?! If there is a bastard who wants to survive by selling me out, he will come out.!"
"Hey, is that a real sword? It seems like it's really driving me crazy.."
An explosive statement that made Kantala's eyes widen and the blood drain from the thieves' faces was heard on the road leading to the vacant lot..
"What kind of bastard are you??!"
"grow."
The magic in the waterway helps you see in the dark as if it were daylight. Thanks to this, all the thieves, including Kantala, were able to clearly see the uninvited guest..
Just looking at his appearance, he was such a gruff and sharp-looking young man that you could even wonder if he was a business partner. His tall stature and body, which clearly showed that he was a warrior, were trained to the point that it naturally made those who looked at him feel intimidated. As a result, even though he was wearing only light leather armor, it was not because he was poorly equipped, but because he was confident in his abilities, he chose to go lightweight. It made me confident that it was clear..
However, unlike his subordinates, Kantala had no ego or reason left to feel such things. He asked in a very excited state, strangely bending his neck..
"What are you?"
The young man burst out laughing, saying ‘huh’ as if the question was absurd, and tilted his head in the opposite direction from Kantala. And when his tightly closed lips opened.
-whirring!
With a short whistling sound, something shot out from behind the man..
-Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!
At the same time, the magic sword howled like an animal and swung as it pleased. As soon as that happened, a sharp cracking sound followed by a jarring friction sound, as if metal was gnawing metal, rang out between the magic sword's teeth. The man who whistled muttered as if it were absurd..
"It's really crazy. That's a sword, it's a dog?"
The thieves, unable to accept the situation, looked at the magic sword chewing on what looked like nine large needles with a blank expression. Even though it was caught in the jaws of a demonic sword that swallowed even living people with their armor intact, the needle steadfastly maintained its shape..
Just as some quick-witted thieves guessed the correlation between the whistling sound they had just heard and the needle, and were about to issue a warning, fireballs suddenly flew in from left and right..
"Wow, it's an attack! He's a wizard!"
The bandits, who were unable to feel any signs of popularity due to the noise made by Kantala, belatedly realized that they were surrounded and struggled to survive in any way they could, but the arrows that flew in with the fireballs had already begun to mercilessly take their lives..
Still, as if the training and practice they had done with other people's money had not been in vain, some of them quickly accepted the situation and went on the defensive, but the magic and arrows coming from both sides were met with a frontal assault as if it were nothing, and the young man and his gang started attacking the wizard. I didn't even dare to aim for.
In fact, even if a warrior was quite courageous, it was clear that he would have no choice but to do so when faced with an enemy charging at him like lightning while holding a battle ax the size of an adult man's torso and a warhammer that could be used as a battering ram..
"This time I take the lead!"
A woman as large as the man who first appears charges forward with a heavy warhammer pointed like a spear. With that alone, there is no way to deal with them. When the thieves widen the distance, magic and arrows cut off their lines, and anyone who half-heartedly tries to block them only gets their head broken by the rushing warhammers..
It was truly an unreasonable attack. The woman, who didn't even look at the helpless thieves who were falling down and rushed straight towards the magic sword, spun around without any courage and used the momentum she had from rushing towards the magic sword, which was still busy chewing on a piece of metal. I swung a warhammer.
The warhammer and the magic sword, swung at an unbelievable speed, clashed..
-Kyaang!
-kagang!
The magic sword sinks into the stone floor and screams like an animal as it is struck from top to bottom using centrifugal force without any technique. The strike was so strong that the sound of the flesh and muscles being torn and exploded simultaneously not only from the demon sword but also from Kantala's forearm connected to the demon sword..
-Blood profit! whistling!
The sound of a whistle coming through them. At that signal, the nine needles that escaped from the mouth of the demon sword and bounced arbitrarily returned to the young man at high speed..
At the same time, a needle that was obviously larger than those needles flew towards Kantala's defenseless forehead..
"Ugh!"
The needle that perfectly penetrated the gap pierced Kantala's head. Kantala's body, which was crushed by her huge warhammer and her head was thrown back due to the magic sword still stuck in the ground, was about to slowly collapse after a moment of stiffness..
"This... damn it..."
But my knees, which were collapsing, take strength, as if someone was forcibly holding them down..
"Bastards...!"
Then, the head that had fallen backwards, along with the eyeballs turned upside down, returned to its original position with a force that made the neck feel like it was going to break. Even the woman who was pressing the warhammer with all her might hesitated and stepped back when she saw that..
-Crrrrr!!
Without missing the opportunity, the magic sword sticking out of the floor burned its hostility and began grinding its teeth like an animal again. Kantala, who did not die even though a projectile like a horn was lodged in the center of his forehead, stared at his enemies with bloodshot eyes as if responding to it..
"I'll tear them all apart and kill you.!!"
Standing behind the woman who had distanced herself from Kantala, completely ignoring the dead or lost bandits, the young man drew his sword while muttering softly with an expression of bewilderment..
"I can't believe I survived thanks to the idiots who believed me to go around leaking shit like that.."
Heedless of the threats from the Demon Sword and Kantala, he ran forward..
