Episode 249. Invasion of Carpathia (5)
A worn-out full-body armor and helmet, dented and covered in scars.
A window with teeth missing here and there.
Even a skinny horse that seemed to be unable to run.
It was not just unsightly, it was hideous.
‘I’m not some Don Quixote… … .’
If there was a squire named Sancho who served Don Quixote, he could be said to be the reincarnation of Don Quixote.
“Everyone, stay calm. If you stay calm, you can overcome any situation… … Hey! Where is this guy going!”
The horse carrying Dwenner began to walk toward the wide meadow.
Dwenner gradually moves away, leaving his children behind.
The children who saw that sight began to whisper.
“Why is the president here?”
“You’re the commander, right? Our… …first-year students.”
“It seems like it’s not us who need to stay calm, but them… … If we keep doing that, we’ll end up inside the castle.”
“I think I know why you chose such a worthless horse. You couldn’t help it. You couldn’t handle a strong horse.”
Yes, he was a very incompetent Dwenner who couldn’t even control his dry words.
It was then that someone grabbed the horse’s reins and turned it around.
“… … .”
… … there was. Sancho was there.
Don Quixote Dwyer of Annwood Academy.
There was a servant named Sancho who served him… …and it was none other than Charon.
“How noisy. Have you already forgotten that this is a battlefield?”
“Oh, no!”
Sharp eyes, blunt speech, and an aura that instantly captivates children.
He was a bit vicious for Sancho, but that wasn’t what mattered at the moment.
Ppaan-.
“… … .”
He stared at Charon intently and tried to communicate with his eyes. ‘Why is that thing here?’
Then Charon looked at me.
It seems like there are many stories contained in it.
With a very profound look in his eyes.
* * *
Two days ago, when Dwyer expressed his intention to join the defense of Carpathia.
Charon tried desperately to persuade Dwyer, but ultimately failed to change his mind.
If he had noticed Dwyer’s true intention to protect Zero, he could have convinced her, but Charon, who was unaware of their relationship, was simply shocked.
‘I already have so many things to worry about, what is this… … .’
Charon placed a hand on his burning forehead.
The appearance of black magicians and the summoning of demons began several days ago throughout the empire.
The empire sent troops there, and naturally the central forces were emptied.
“Something doesn’t seem right. I should go and check it out myself.”
Even Aleister headed to the place where the demon was said to have appeared.
I thought we handled it well before those guys caused a major accident because so many talented people were involved.
But that wasn’t it.
Telegram that ‘erosion’ has begun in the Carpathians.
After receiving the telegram, Caron was able to realize while looking at the map.
That I was treated well.
‘I never thought you’d aim for the center… … .’
Centered around the Carpathians, they caused incidents in all four directions, causing troops to be deployed.
‘Their target from the beginning was the Carpathians. And the reason is… … .’
Making the central plains of the empire uninhabitable and causing disruption to the movement of troops.
It was a bold operation, and one that, if successful, could have dealt the greatest blow to the Empire.
Yes, the Carpathian defense was a crucial battle whose failure would have dealt the empire a fatal blow.
This means that they are not deploying young students for no reason.
however…….
“Hehehe… … Battlefield… … I’m going… … to protect… … .”
How could a coward like Dwenner, who had no talent for martial arts, participate in such an important battlefield?
Charon’s head couldn’t help but hurt. And more than anything, he knew it.
‘The most dangerous thing on the battlefield is not the enemy, but your stupid allies.’
– That is.
‘But I can’t just leave it to die… … .’
Even though Dwyer was a parachute drop-in, the president is still the president.
At the same time, he was also one of the imperial subjects that Charon had to protect.
‘Being incompetent isn’t a crime.’
The people that Charon kills are those who are ‘harmful’ to the empire.
Although Dwenner was incompetent, he was not a malicious harasser.
furthermore.
‘The assessment that he is incompetent is wrong.’
It was Charon who realized that Dwenner had been hiding his power all this time.
In fact, in Caron’s personal evaluation, he was still considered to be incompetent.
Incompetent and mediocre. Are you somewhere in between?
Still, the ratings have gone up a lot compared to before.
‘… … Maybe it would be a good idea to use this opportunity to test it out.’
The situation was a race against time. Now was the time to even try to stop Dwyer.
Since it was decided that we would go together, there was no reason to hesitate.
Charon’s head began to turn rapidly.
‘I guess I can leave the first grade to you.’
Originally, I was going to entrust it to the 6th Circle Wizard Dargon, but I thought it was a waste to use him for transporting the wounded and guard duty.
While the safety of first-year students is important, the safety of second- and third-year students who will rush into the battlefield is equally important.
If Dargon joins us, casualties could be greatly reduced.
‘First of all, there’s no reason for a first-year student to fight a demon.’
‘Leadership’ is a power different from force.
Even a Dwenner with no military power would be able to command it sufficiently.
“President, would you like to take charge of the first year?”
“You’re a first year student?”
“Yes, of course you are more than qualified to take charge of the third years, but you are also responsible for protecting the first years, the future of the empire… … .”
“That’s exactly what I’ve been hoping for! My friend Caron, you finally understand my heart! Are you finally as capable as I am?”
“… … ?”
It was really strange.
A person who would normally have objected, saying, “Are you asking me, a capable person, to do some work?” accepted the offer so easily.
“It’s time to take out the heirloom!”
Dwenner opened the display case in the corner of the president’s office.
There were helmets, armor, and spears that had been passed down through generations in the Sagan family.
“This is the weapon that our ancestors used when fighting against the 4th Corps Commander Balaparl. It was only intended to be used in emergency situations, such as when the Corps Commander descends… … .”
Now that Zero might be bitten by a demon, what else could this be if not an emergency!
“This is quite an emergency, huh?”
Dwenner started putting on his gear.
Although it was managed diligently, problems arose here and there because it had been passed down for hundreds of years.
He looks like a defeated knight.
Caron was speechless at the sight of that miserable sight.
‘First of all… let’s go. We don’t have much time.’
Don Quixote of Annwood Academy and Sancho from a sinister other world.
It was the moment when the two people set out.
* * *
Caron’s deep eyes were speaking.
‘I… … have had so much going on. It’s really hard.’
– He said.
I don’t know exactly what happened, but I felt like I had to move on.
But it’s not possible to kick out someone who has already arrived.
‘My strategy doesn’t change just because Dwenner is coming.’
Of course, an incompetent Dwyer can lead to unexpected danger.
Like increasing the number of demons from the original four, or pushing us further into that castle.
But that’s okay. No, it’s welcome.
‘My current power is enough to defeat the 4th boss in one go.’
But the demons in Chapter 2? No matter how much the incompetent Dwyer runs wild, I won’t be in danger.
If there’s a variable, it’s that Dwyer ruins my plans, but that can’t happen…
“… … .”
And soon I realized that the first step was already tangled up.
The first demon to appear is Amonga.
The one who reduces the demon’s HP by 50% is none other than the 6th circle wizard ‘Dargon’.
The person who would have originally taken over as the first-year conductor instead of Dwenner.
But no matter how much I looked around, I couldn’t find him.
Yes, Dargon has lost his place to Dwenner.
‘Who’s going to reveal HP now…?’
Dwenner, who ruined my perfect strategy the moment he appeared.
At this point, I started to wonder. Why did he come here when he should have stayed at Annwood Academy?
‘You must have come because of me.’
A catastrophe caused by high favorability. But let me say it a little differently.
‘Hidden Piece.’
I have never heard or seen that Dwyer participated in the defense of the Carpathians.
That is, this is a kind of hidden piece, and the only thing that users had trouble with in the Carpathian invasion was Marvel.
then.
‘Could this be… a hidden piece to catch Marvel?’
Even when playing multiple times, even I, armed with [Mimicry of God] and various other abilities, am struggling to break the 10,000 shield.
In fact, it was impossible without the help of ‘someone’, but was that ‘someone’ Dwyer?
If so, this is a huge discovery.
It was a time when I was looking at Dwenner with eyes full of respect.
“You devils! Come and see! I will show you my spearmanship, which is said to be comparable to that of the hero who has fallen asleep, Lord Douglas!”
It was when Dwenner was spinning his spear a couple of times on horseback.
Less noise-.
Dwyer’s spear fell to the floor. The force of the thrust could not withstand the centrifugal force.
“… … .”
“Ahem, it’s been a while so I made a mistake. Ugh… … !”
Dwenner bending down to pick up the spear.
thud!
“Kuuuck!”
It was natural for him to fall off his horse.
‘That Dwyer can cut down Marvel’s shield?’
It was nonsense. This makes it clear.
Dwyer’s Hidden Piece has nothing to do with Marvel.
“Ah, ahem! My body feels a little loose. I’ll need some time.”
Dwenner swung his spear vigorously.
Well, it was definitely great. Could it be said that his spear skills were on par with our Legion?
Yes, that meant it was really bad.
“The General is our commander?”
“Hey… … No way. Teacher Caron will help you.”
“Is that the same level of spearmanship as Douglas?”
Guys, don’t do that. Dead Douglas… … no, living Adonis will cry.
“Zero, you were here.”
A handsome young man with golden hair, formerly known as Douglas.
It was Adonis. He passed by Dwenner, pretending not to see him.
“Hehe, please understand even if I feel hurt.”
“Huh? What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“Didn’t you mention Douglas with that skill? Didn’t that hurt you?”
Adonis looked in Dwyer’s direction, then back to me.
“What the hell are you talking about? There’s no one swinging a spear. All I see is words.”
“… … .”
It’s not that I’m ignoring Dwenner. It’s just that I really can’t see Dwenner.
A 9-star knight, an incompetent man who doesn’t even look human in Adonis’ eyes.
That was the man named Dwenner.
I decided to change the subject.
“Hehe, are you feeling better?”
Immediately after Luna’s rude remark, Adonis loses consciousness and turns to stone.
Did he recall the memory of that time? Adonis said, placing his finger on his forehead.
“Hmm, I remember that the two children acquired new skills… … but I don’t remember anything after that. I guess I’m just an old man who can’t help it.”
It seemed like he was so shocked that he lost his memory.
Well, it was understandable. Luna’s attitude of trying to eat an old man and his friend was something I had never experienced before, even in Korea.
It was when I felt the Confucian dragon inside me writhing.
Adonis muttered as he looked towards the castle.
“Hmm… … It seems like the inside is more serious than I thought.”
“Haha, Adonis is here. I’m sure we can stop him.”
In fact, Risvelt’s invasion of the Carpathians ended in failure.
Although high-ranking knights including Charon came to support us at every moment, it was Adonis’ presence that was the biggest reason.
“That’s right. I’m thinking of going inside with Charon. So… …Can I leave this place to you?”
“yes?”
“I mean, take care of the children. Of course, including ‘that child.’”
‘That child’. He was referring to Victoria, the thirteenth princess of the empire.
I couldn’t help but panic because.
‘Why are you telling me what you should tell Alex, the main character…?’
“Woooooooo! Demon! Behold my might!”
“Everyone, come and line up. I won’t forgive any penalties.”
“Please take care of me.”
Don Quixote Dwenner, Theron the Good, and even Adonis.
I could tell.
That the story started to go downhill.
