Dear My Knight - Chapter 89



4. The Rise of the War – (34)

***

A gigantic gymnasium on the grounds of Glaad Mansion.

According to the Mercenary Guild’s observations, it was predicted that between 11:00 and 12:00 this night, the Demonic Beast Corps would reach the walls of Glia City.

And now.

Glead was undergoing final checks before going to the battlefield.

Chuck.

Chuck.

The sound of heavy boots rang out.

Aisen Glade He slowly enters the arena fully armed. The dark blue armor surrounding Aizen had a dark color like a faded jewel. With the upright eyes placed on top of the armor, he gives a deep gaze as if he were catching each of the knights lined up in a long row in the gymnasium.

The knights of Glead, who were to go to the forefront, were keeping their positions befitting the knights they belonged to.

The knights are divided into three ranks.

And in front of the three ranks, there was one person who seemed to be the leader of each order of knights.

Aisen, who moved them while looking at them, is finally on the podium.

Let Aizen stand on the podium in front of the gymnasium. The captains of the knights who were waiting slowly approached and held a ceremony.

Thump!

Of the three knight commanders, the 1st Knights of Glaad will move with Aizen Glaade.

Brua, the knight commander of the ‘Knights of Groua’.

He takes a step further than the other captains and opens his mouth with a tense expression as he greets Aizen.

“Chung! All the knights who will go out have finished their preparations without any problems.”

Aizen nodded with a nonchalant expression.

After confirming that appearance, Bruis turned around and took his seat right in front of the ranks of Groua knights.

Aizen opened her mouth in a profound tone, recognizing that Asherah had been greeted by Bruis, where she should have greeted him.

“Don’t be afraid.”

Aizen’s voice, which resonated slowly, spread loudly and loudly as if it would soon capture the entire gymnasium.

“Knight of the North. Engrave the pride and pride of living as a Knight of Glead into your heart now. Not one will cross the river of death tonight.”

Aizen’s calmly continued voice reached the ears of all the knights in line at the same time.

The knights of Glaad look at Aisen with bright eyes that contain firearms.

“What an honor it is to be on the front line. Glad’s knights will realize it today.”

After Aizen’s words, Aizen draws out his sword.

As if it were a signal.

Grua of the 1st Knights.

2 Knights Fluen.

From noble mtl dot com.

3 Knights Bamel.

The leaders of each order of knights quickly draw their swords with restrained movements.

Good.

Aisen’s sword, slowly cutting into the air, embroidered a dark blue line in the air, and the captains of the knights successively raised their auras from their swords in line with the trajectory.

The four auras collided like that to create a brilliant halo of light in the air.

The blue aura that seemed to form the shape of a falcon, even if it was small, caught the eyes of all the knights.

That’s the mark that indicates Glaad’s departure.

ㅡThe myth of invincibility.

Eisen Glade is even called the blue shield of the empire.

With him, the North is safe, and as long as he is there, the North will never collapse.

That’s not a word floating around in the North, but a famous phrase that spread throughout the Chaldean Empire.

A theme that various hosagas and bards sometimes spit out to praise the north.

However, those simple words are actually the achievements of reality that are not exaggerated.

In itself, it showed the pride of Glaad.

Aizen Glade doesn’t step out unless it’s important.

To stand together on the battlefield with Aizen. That in itself was like the best magic to boost the morale of the knights.

***

9 O’clock at night.

There is only about 2 hours left until the monster corps predicted by the mercenary guild union reaches this wall.

In general, if you are in a position to protect the castle wall, it is of course advantageous to keep it if you think simply.

The wall itself was specialized in defense, and it was a building designed to optimize damage.

Basically, it is written in a strategy book common to all empires that the besieging side takes three times as many troops as the defending side.

Of course, depending on the topography, climate, season, and other variables, the number of required troops may increase, and if the walls are weak, the number of required troops may be reduced.

But.

Everything changes the moment you assume a ‘beast corps’ rather than a normal siege.

The collection of Demon Beasts that formed the ‘Brigade’ is itself a Beast of Disaster. Either that Vitria is with you or that there is a monster that is more dangerous than that.

From the giant ogres three times the size of a normal adult male to the drakes and even the lesser cyclops.

Dealing with monsters and defending within the walls doesn’t have much of an advantage.

If you lose momentum, you can’t go outside, and you have to defend yourself within the walls. Then, almost 100% of the castle walls will collapse, making it difficult to defend.

That’s why the knights had to come out of the wall and face the monsters in order to deal with the beast army.

This historically also belonged to the ‘beast corps’ opponent method, which is close to ‘basic’.

……

Wheee!

As autumn approaches, the cold wind from the north caresses everyone’s collars.

As time passed, the knights of various families and mercenaries belonging to guilds gradually found it difficult to keep their eyes on one place.

Just facing them head-on immediately breaks their will.

Now, the Witchbeast Corps was close enough to Glia City to be able to see it with the naked eye without the use of special magic tools.

An hour ahead.

Or less.

From then on, the fight against evil and the road to hell will unfold.

They already knew.

“…”

“…”

“…”

Even those who opened their mouths while looking at their comrades gradually shut their mouths, as if a huge rock called thick silence was squeezing the space.

Someone’s hand trembled slightly in anxiety.

Someone just stared at the floor or the sky.

And now, among those knights and mercenaries, there was a knight corps that had momentum even while facing the beast corps head-on.

Not a single individual. That the entire Knights are facing each other.

It attracts the attention of other knights and mercenaries by its very existence.

Knights clad in bluish armor looking at the monster army like the waves of the black sea.

Glead.

Glead’s knights on the front line. And Aizen, who was at the forefront of them, just calmly looked ahead.

A middle-aged man who was one step back from Eisen in the front opens his mouth with a smile.

“This is true. I don’t know how many years it has been.”

Aizen opens her mouth with a small smile. However, their eyes were still facing the front.

“You mean standing on the battlefield together?”

A man opened her mouth as if he had expected Aizen to look like that. Tzera nodded her head slightly.

Aizen’s right-hand man.

He was a knight who always stood by Aizen’s side as he traveled across the continent and expanded his reputation.

“Yes. Can you see my hands shaking now?”

Tjera’s little mother-in-law.

Aizen’s smile grew even thicker as he glanced aside.

He could see the blue armor, which was brighter than Aizen’s, but still quite faded.

“If the knights who died at your hands saw this now, they would strike the ground in hell.”

“That’s right. The appearance of the children in the back makes me feel that the times are not the same as before.”

The north was in trouble every day due to more monsters than now.

It wasn’t long before Aizen settled down in the north and expanded his power, so the north became stable.

“It must be that the world is changing little by little. Even though the crisis still exists.”

While saying that, Aizen slowly began to infuse mana into his body.

A kind of warm-up.

Invigorates the body in preparation for the upcoming battle.

It’s not as good as it used to be after all these years.

That said, he wasn’t the type to lose himself to demonic beasts.

“That’s why an existence to lead is necessary.”

Originally, Aizen could not do that because of the death of his son, who had taken over the family headship, even though he was at an age where he would have left his family and spent his old age peacefully.

The family still needed themselves.

A existence that will carry on the family.

Her granddaughter, Ashera Glade, until she was a little more firmly established. She still needed to do more.

Then, the image of another disciple that her granddaughter had in her heart came to mind.

ㅡEd.

Even Aizen himself couldn’t predict how much further he could grow.

Unlike my granddaughter, who is like a brilliant jewel whose true value has already been revealed. Ed was like an ore still engulfed in the unknown.

In the beginning there is light. I thought it was, but I thought that the talent was somewhere else.

It’s not that I have talent in martial arts. The ability to embrace people. Innate personality. I also looked into it.

Usually, such an unknown talent shines the more it goes through a crisis.

That’s why I didn’t pay much attention to the students’ environment. No, I deliberately ignored it.

Because he believed that he had to overcome and endure by himself, not with someone else’s help, he thought that if he embraced the light, he would gradually open his eyes to other talents.

But my granddaughter, Asera, sees something different in Ed. Contrary to what she thinks, she reaches out to him and tries to help him directly.

And at some point, even the successor position of Glead was going to be handed over to Ed.

As if the granddaughter was right. Recently, he has suddenly begun to blossom his talents.

It was proof that he had reached the superlative level within a few months of reaching the upper level.

“Are you thinking of the lady again?”

Tzera slowly raised her sword and asked Aizen.

He waited for me as if he was lost in thought, but he opened his mouth because the black wave that appeared in front of him gradually got closer.

“Doesn’t the fact that there is a child like Asherah among the scumbag grandchildren mean that Glead is not inclined?”

Aizen smiled and raised his sword as well.

Time goes by so fast.

Now it was time to face the battlefield.
