My Villains Episode 443
65. peak of spring(18)
“……What the hell is this - Ellen?”
Ellen's smile grew a little deeper when she saw me shaking my head at the unexpected reunion..
“Looking at that stupid face, I think I came to the right place this time.” The guy was wearing a very unfamiliar outfit..
It was a robe with black patterns on a white background, tightly closed at the front, and underneath it, a narrow maroon skirt and black boots that reached above the knees were glimpsed..
A small tiara shaped like leaves and vines had three flowers in full bloom, each studded with different jewels..
A diamond with 35 dazzling faces, a ruby with crimson waves flowing from the center, and a flawless jade. Everyone felt an unusual magical power..
I, who had blinked at her flashy behavior, belatedly understood Ellen's words and expressed my doubts..
“This time? what does that mean?”
“I was fooled by your trick.”
“trickery?”
Instead of answering, the guy glanced back. And I waved a quarterstaff that was about a span larger than my height..
“Influent Hammae. Durio, fortio. ”
At the four words muttered softly by light pink lips, a long wall of flames soared along the defense line..
Grumbling!
The red-hot flames were colored like a mixture of milk and butter. Both enemies and allies took a step back in surprise due to the heat that seemed to cook their faces..
“I followed the rumor and went to High Castle, and it wasn't you, but a smelly thug..”
Ellen stepped into the air and approached. The flames surrounding him floated over his shoulders like a shawl blowing in the wind. The bright eyes like blue stars were slightly blurred..
“I was so angry, I felt like I was going crazy.……
Thin, long fingers slowly traced my facial features. My shaking eyes were filled with joy..
“It's strange. It feels like last winter is melting like snow, it's so strange.”
“Ellen.”
The still small, thin, feather-like body was held in my arms as if it were falling apart..
I was very careful when I hugged that thin thing, worried that it might break or break. I didn't dare put any pressure on my fingertips, so I bit my teeth instead..
“I missed you. really, really-”
Ellen, on the other hand, hugged my neck very tightly. The refreshing scent of lime flowed from her golden hair, and the delicate scent of lilies flowed from her white skin. I almost fell asleep from the sudden feeling of peace that came over me in the middle of the battlefield..
“……This is not the time.”
I barely managed to get him away and continued speaking..
“There are a lot of things I want to ask, but things are not going well right now. “Are you going to help me?” Ellen wiped her moist eyes, took a deep breath, and showed a cool expression..
“I don't plan on fighting till the end?”
“……what? What are you talking about suddenly??”
“What are you talking about? It wasn't a fight you could win in the first place..”
“Then, just run away like this.?”
“uh.”
“nonsense-”
“Why is that nonsense??”
“That's right.”
Even though I was speechless for a moment, I answered quickly..
“This is the occupied territory that I worked hard to obtain. Just hold on until Prince Ulkar comes..”
“Fool, is that your land? They say you're foolishly stubborn about protecting someone else's land.‘?”
Before I could answer, the guy continued to shoot me in a cold voice..
“And the three princes won't come.”
“……what?”
“I met the Three Princes just before High Castle was taken over. He said he had made contact with the Margrave of Prix and was planning to go see him..”
I was stunned by the unexpected news and opened my mouth..
In the Kingdom of Milan, there are families that have traditionally taken on the duty of protecting the frontier..
Elsen in the north, Jahakar and Baluin in the south, Alphard in the east, and Arya in the west..
These frontier families served as the vanguard against greenskin armies, maritime powers, invaders from distant continents, and pretenders to the throne. He also rose to great power in the area and was reborn as a noble among nobles and a great lord among great lords..
It was only natural that the title of duke was shared among the four families..
Meanwhile, Lionel II, the 'King of Knights', the previous monarch of Milan, marched west with a large army and achieved a great victory..
The newly acquired territories are Unfast, Past, and the Plateau..
The King of Knights divided these three provinces between his two associates and also bestowed them with titles according to the traditions of the ancient empire..
The two families that became the new guardians of the western border are 'Axodbrook' and 'De Lisir'..
Axodbrook is a family headed by the Margrave of Landry, or rather, the Margrave of Garwin, and protects the plateau and the southern half of Unfast..
And Drisir is the family that guards the northern half of Unfast and the region of Past..
Margrave Prix, whom Ellen just mentioned, is the current head of the Drisir family..
“……So, the prince headed north.?”
“that's right.”
When I opened my mouth, he spoke in a assertive tone..
“He must have been planning to use the power of the Drisir family to fight against the Electors. From what I heard, it doesn't seem to be going well..”
I had already heard that Unfast and the area around Past had fallen into enemy hands. They said that they were helplessly defeated by an elite army led by a man who seemed to be the Duke of Avilambus's cousin or cousin..
At the time I heard the news, I thought it had nothing to do with our military's plans..
However, if Prince Ulkar really went north as Ellen said,…….
“The three princes won't come.”
Ellen continued..
“Calm down, Poi. If you keep holding on, you'll just die..”
“……That can't be possible, it doesn't make sense..”
Before becoming the kingdom's largest warlord, Prince Ulkar is a rising general who has never been defeated since he first entered the battlefield at the age of seventeen. That Ulkar lost?
While I was gaping at the unbelievable story, a huge amount of magical power stirred from the imperial army..
Shoot ah!
Beyond the fiercely burning wall of fire, waves the size of a house are visible. The light green river that flowed between the two camps was surging against gravity and was attacking this side..
Chii Iik!
“Ugh - damn it!”
““Don’t back down, stay where you are!” The waves rushing across the field exploded against the wall of fire. The mana-filled flame was not extinguished so easily, but after the hot steam spread out in all directions, both its strength and body shrunk..
The Elector's cavalry and the pagan slave army rushed towards the shrunken wall of fire, and powerful destructive spells were poured out before them..
“......eww ”
“Ellen, it's okay.?”
Ellen, who was hiding in my arms, hiding her face with the long sleeves of her robe, had her eyes shining bright blue in the hot steam..
They are white pillars of light and purple spheres, and they seem to have noticed that more than half of them are flying towards us..
“Get out of the way.”
As soon as he got out of my arms, a 'flame cloak' fluttering in the air wrapped around Ellen's body..
“Archuire ensa—ra, earn feare.”
Several 'flame arrows' rose above the black quarterstaff..
Ellen added a couple of short mutterings, and the surrounding flames and fire streams falling from the flame cloak gathered towards the staff. The arrows made of fire quickly increased from three to five and from five to ten..
• 99
Ignis.
Ten flaming arrows were shot forward at the same time. The spears of power and spheres of destruction that were attacking us were intercepted and exploded in vain..
“Linhau's scoundrels, how dare they.”
A voice full of magical power resonates through the air..
Ellen threw the black quarterstaff on the floor as if pushing it. The long staff wriggled as if it were alive, then quickly turned into a black carpet and floated away..
“Ellen, what is that?-”
“prepare to retreat.”
“what‘?”
“A saboteur will appear soon, so I can't help you for long. I'll buy you some time.”
“Wait, Ellen.!”
I quickly asked Ellen a question as she was about to get on the black carpet..
“When did you talk to Prince Ulkar??”
“……that's important?”
“Uh, it's important. When is it?”
The guy who got up on the carpet and was at eye level looked at me and opened his mouth..
“3It must have been about a week. maybe.”
“••••••3 main.”
Leaving behind me mumbling absently, Ellen, wearing a flame cloak, flew like a bird into the night sky..
The wall of fire, which seemed as if it would go out at any moment, began dancing again right after the blonde girl rose into the sky..
“Succendent earn, adobit'sche!”
The strange vibration contained in the spell echoed throughout the battlefield. Beneath the wizard's fluttering carpet, a pillar of fire measuring 30 meters in length on both sides began to pour down the slope as if falling forward..
‘It was a 'flame wave'.
“Wow!!”
“It's hot - save me, save me!”
The soldiers who attacked the kingdom's defense line struggled in droves. Even the most elite members of the Strom family cried out like children as their entire bodies were engulfed in flames..
As more than 150 troops were inflamed by a single spell, Duke Avilambus, who was watching the battle from across the dried up river, shouted as if he were having a fit..
“gocein, gossein!”
The duke growled angrily at the old man whose robes were decorated with thin golden chains..
“That bitch over there! What on earth is that bitch??”
“I don't know, your majesty..”
The duke's most trusted wizard added his words as he looked at the figure in the distance with fluttering blonde hair and a series of fireballs coming down at him..
“However, since the magic carpet clearly belongs to the ‘leper struck by lightning’, the magician must also have come from the Palace of La-Palais..”
“La—Palace Palace?”
“yes. Isn't she the 'Fire Witch', a companion of the Red Knight?……
As more than 30 soldiers were oxidized by the fireball that struck again, the Duke of Avilam Bus rolled his eyes and screamed..
“I don’t care who that bitch is, just go and kill her! We will destroy our enemies before the sun rises.!”
At the elector's shout, the vassals, including Captain Buacán, bowed their necks. Gossein bowed his head politely and then retreated, taking with him twelve battle wizards..
