36. When I become a lord, I will work hard.
He flew towards the Albion bomber formation.
Bang! Bang!
[Use high-speed flight skill (lv.2)]
Paaaaang!
Paaang!
‘You filthy bastard!’
He keeps following me around.
Right now, my skills and speed are incapable of keeping up with him.
If you keep going like this, you’ll die!
But I came back alive from the abyss.
I can’t just take it easy.
I gritted my teeth.
‘Create a variable somehow.’
As I approached the rearmost bomber, its upper machine gun turret fired at me.
Tata tang! Tata tang!
As we quickly descend, the aerial magic knight behind us follows us closely, shooting his gun.
Bang! Bang!
[Use high-speed flight skill (lv.2)]
Paaaaang!
In an instant, he moved towards the front of the bomber.
Then he slowed down and flew over the cockpit, squatting like a cicada between the bomber cockpit and the machine gun turret in the middle of the fuselage.
The machine gun turret was still aimed at the rear.
At that moment, the Albion Airborne Magic Knight passed by.
He was looking for me from the front of the bomber.
He is really persistent.
Wow!
Then I heard the turret moving.
I used the skill right away.
[Use Halo (lv.1) skill.]
Wow! Cheolker!
The machine gun turret rotated, and the muzzle was pointed at me.
Tata tata tang!
Papapapat!
Fortunately, the machine gunner didn’t have any penetration skills.
I got down on one knee and raised my upper body.
Machine gun bullets shot out like fireworks, but were stopped by the Halo shield and fell like corn on the aircraft.
The ace-class magic knight who was chasing me discovered me at the sound of a machine gun.
The bastard used a strange skill to turn his body and fly backwards, and aimed his rifle at me.
And then he looked at me and smiled bitterly.
‘Now is the time!’
Pot! I flew to the side.
Tata tata tang!
As I disappeared, machine gun bullets were fired at the magic knight who was aiming his rifle.
Whirlyrick!
The bastard uses evasion techniques to avoid the bullets and momentarily slides to the side.
This is the truth.
Tutata tata tang!
puck!
“That’s right!”
I cheered without realizing it.
Even if it’s an evasion technique, can you dodge bullets coming from two places at the same time?
The answer is no!
The guy I shot with my machine gun flew down.
‘It’s my turn now!’
Tutata tang!
The tables have turned again.
Now I’m chasing him.
The bastard’s flight speed has slowed down.
It definitely means that there was a wound.
But the bastard was barely avoiding my bullets by using evasion techniques.
“Stop dying!”
I changed the magazine.
Tutatatang! Tutatatang!
The thing began to climb rapidly again, gaining altitude.
Another tactic to use skills to dodge me and target me from behind.
What the hell is this dogfight!
‘I can’t let this happen again.’
[Use high-speed flight skill (lv.2)]
Paaaaang!
Instead of following him, I increased my altitude vertically.
At that moment, I saw the guy turn around from a distance.
He looks around for me.
But now I’m turning my back on the sun.
Crunch!
‘let’s go!’
Wheeing!
In an instant, the distance between us closed.
But I didn’t shoot.
This time, I don’t want to give you any room to evade.
Then the guy looked at the sun.
And he aimed the rifle.
But it was already too late.
Tutata tata tata tang!
Pufferpuck!
“Cough!”
A bullet was lodged in the bastard’s body.
Whee!
‘Did you catch it?’
I passed him and turned my head away.
The enemy ace-class aerial magic knight plummeted toward the ground with his rifle.
No matter how excellent an aerial magician is, he cannot demonstrate his full potential if his body is injured.
And it’s not easy to find an enemy who turns their back on the sun.
‘Got it!’
In an instant, a shiver ran through my whole body.
The sense of victory that comes from defeating an enemy stronger than yourself.
I felt an incredible joy, added to by the joy of living there.
But I couldn’t enjoy this feeling.
‘How many are left?’
I looked up and counted the number of bombers.
8th!
We’ve reduced the numbers quite a bit.
But then I saw a barrier ahead.
It’s so close!
‘Damn it! I won’t be able to shoot them all down in time!’
I put five mana pills into my mouth.
Paaaaang!
I flew straight towards the tail bomber.
[Use high-speed flight skill (lv.2)]
Paaang!
Tutata tata tang!
When using high-speed flight skills, the accuracy drops significantly.
In addition, the submachine gun’s range was shorter than that of the rifle and its accuracy was lower.
As we got closer to the bomber, we slowed down.
Then the lower machine gun fired at me.
Tata tata tang!
Paaaaang!
I had no choice but to use my high-speed flight skills to get past the bomber.
But I couldn’t give up.
Trying to attack again······.
‘Can bombers see the sun?’
The sun was setting in the west.
I moved towards the sun.
And then, with his back to the sun, he flew back towards the bombers.
Even though I got pretty close, the upper machine gun turret didn’t detect me.
The human eye cannot overcome the sun!
I thought I might need to tint my goggles.
Thanks to that, I was able to take aim and fire.
He pulled out a pistol.
chuck!
[Use the Penetration (lv.3) skill.]
[Use the Penetration (lv.3) skill.]
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Phew!
Smoke rose from the right engine.
The machine gunner who just then noticed me aims his machine gun, but it’s already too late.
Boom! Boom!
Boom!
The engine exploded.
The wings were torn off, and the bomber spun around and crashed to the ground.
Kwaaaaang! Pfft!
‘Now there are seven left!’
No! The bomber in front was losing altitude, belching black smoke.
Another plane crashed during an attack by our agents.
Now if we just catch 6······.
But there seemed to be too little time.
There was a barrier right in front of my nose.
Whew! Whew!
Ta-tang! Bang! Bang!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The engine of the bomber in front blew up.
Chi-chik!
– It’s a little late, Major!
– The 4th squadron has arrived too!
The voices of Lieutenant Audrey and Sergeant Herman could not have been more welcome.
Kwaaaaang!
The 3rd and 4th squadrons destroyed the two bombers in front almost simultaneously.
Chi-chik!
“Hurry up! Grab the remaining bombers!”
Paaaaang!
I couldn’t send even a single one.
If you’re unlucky, a single bomber could bring down the barrier.
“Shoot!”
“Drop it!”
Bang! Tata tang! Bang!
We focused our fire on the bombers.
Tata tata tata tang!
They also fired their machine guns desperately.
“I’m coming!”
At that moment, Sergeant Herman passed in front of the bomber, pulled the safety pin of the magic grenade he had handed out earlier, threw it toward the engine, and dodged downward.
Tank! Kwaang!
However, it was hit by a propeller and bounced off, then exploded in the air.
It didn’t seem easy to attack the bombers with magic grenades from the sky.
“Shoot the engine!”
Bang! Bang!
Boom! Whoosh!
A bomber crashed down, belching black smoke.
Kwaaaaang!
“There’s only one left!”
Boom! Boom!
The tail of the last bomber was blown off by a flaming bullet fired by Sergeant John Cutter.
Then the bomber’s altitude dropped.
“Got it!”
But the bomber was crashing down against the wall.
“crazy!”
“Keep shooting!”
Bang! Bang! Tata tang!
The machine gun turret was blown away, both engines were burning, but the bomber did not stop.
It seemed like the theory would explode on the wall due to inertia.
That was it!
Paaaaang! Paaaaang!
Suddenly, Lieutenant Audrey flew forward at a terrifying speed.
She began flying alongside the crashing bomber.
“Cease fire!”
Lieutenant Audrey clung to the broken machine gun turret, threw something inside, and flew upward.
Boom! Kwaang! Pwah!
The bomber exploded in mid-air.
And debris from the explosion fell in front of the barrier.
“Wow!”
“Got it!”
The troops cheered in unison.
So that’s how you use a magic grenade.
‘In the end, we did it.’
It felt like ten years of stagnation was going away.
Lieutenant Audrey flew towards me.
She took off her foggy goggles in the middle of winter.
“Phew! I finally caught them all.”
“Lieutenant! Good job!”
“Wow! Lieutenant Audrey, you’re awesome!”
At the crucial moment, she finished it off.
The skills I saw from her today weren’t ace level.
Even though it was my first battle, I killed four enemy air magic knights and brought my squadron members back safely.
‘No matter how you look at it, it’s elite level.’
It seemed like I was not a frog in a well, but a poisonous snake in a well.
Come to think of it, in the middle of winter, my teammates and I also took a bath in sweat.
“Let’s go down to the wall!”
***
[Hebrok Wall]
The wall is 3km long and 30m high.
On top of the wall, fixed flat-top guns were placed every 30 meters, and behind the wall, 105mm howitzers were lined up.
And on the wall, there were two thousand Hebrok troops armed with rifles and machine guns.
“Wow! Hurray!”
“Long live the Airborne Magic Unit!”
As we descended the barrier, we heard the soldiers cheering loudly.
They were watching too.
Our air magic knights desperately shooting down the Albion bombers flying towards the barrier!
As I walked toward the center, the soldiers each expressed their gratitude.
No one recognized me, but I didn’t feel bad.
Chubbuck! Chubbuck!
At that moment, the soldiers split to the left and right and someone approached.
Tall and heavily built.
Hebrok’s barrier and the lord who protects the north.
“I am Count Belief Bombard of the Havelock Estate. You are the benefactors of our estate! Thank you very much.”
Alain’s father also did not recognize his son.
It had been three years since I had seen my father, but he was not much different from the father I remembered.
“Father, here it is. Alain.”
“Huh? What do you mean? Alain?”
“I lost a lot of weight.”
“uh?”
Count Belief Bombard looked at me with his eyes wide open.
“Alain?”
I nodded.
“What the hell is going on? And he’s a major?”
“I became an aviation magician.”
“what?”
Count Belief looked surprised.
The Bombard family had no particular affinity for flying techniques.
That’s why I got all kinds of elixirs and fed them to Alain so he could awaken his wind-related magic.
Maybe it’s because of that, but Alain learned the air shield skill and I also learned the flight technique.
“It’s Prince Alain!”
Only then did the knights and soldiers around me recognize me.
“Confucius saved Yeongji!”
“Long live Prince Alain!”
“Wow!”
I didn’t blow up the bomber for this······.
The cheers spread throughout the entire wall.
Now everyone knows who the hero who saved the barrier is.
My shoulders felt tense for no reason.
That was it!
Boohoohoo! Boohoohoo!
Suddenly a trumpet sound was heard.
“Alain, I’m sorry! Let’s talk about the details later.”
Count Belief Bombard turned around.
“The monster is coming! Prepare to fire!”
“Prepare to fire!”
The knights and soldiers moved in unison.
There are dimensional monsters coming from far away.
The bomber crashed and exploded, provoking the monsters and starting the wave.
“Major Alain, what should we do?”
Lieutenant Audrey asked.
“Just rest. These are the soldiers who have guarded the Havelock Wall for decades.”
“ah!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Whew! Whew!
The shells are flying.
Boom! Kwakwakwam! Boom!
As shells exploded from all directions, the number of monsters could be seen dwindling from a distance.
‘Why do monsters come only during this season?’
When the large dimensional gate first appeared in the northeastern mountain range and valley, the power of the spirit land was not enough to stop the dimensional monsters.
The mountains were rugged and very cold.
And at that time, with the firepower and technology available, it was impossible to clear the gate, let alone subdue the monsters that came out of the gate.
Eventually, after years of neglect and the situation becoming unmanageable, there was only one option left.
Build a giant wall to stop the monsters from coming down to the kingdom!
“Fire the howitzer!”
“Fire!”
Boom! Boom boom boom!
The howitzers behind the barrier opened fire simultaneously.
Then, it fell on the head of the monster that was running away from the firing range of the cannon.
The number of monsters has already been significantly reduced by the bombardment.
“Death to the monster!”
“Shoot!”
Bang! Tata ta tang! Bang!
Tutata tata tata tang!
Now machine guns and rifles fired simultaneously at the barrier.
“Kueuk!”
“Kuaak!”
The dimensional monsters were reduced to minced meat before they could even reach the barrier with a devastating three-hit combo.
“Wow! That’s amazing!”
“It’s just the beginning. The wave will last at least two weeks.”
“Is it the full moon?”
Lieutenant Audrey and her men looked surprised.
I looked at Count Belief, who was commanding the soldiers.
Alain has been coming here since he was a child.
Even though he was young and unable to do anything, Count Belief always made sure to keep an eye on the fierce monsters that were coming at him and the soldiers of the territory fighting fiercely.
And I said this is what I’m going to do someday.
‘Yes! I will work hard when I become a lord.’
I said to myself.
It wasn’t my intention, but I scored a ton of points with the lords, knights, and soldiers today.
“Huh? Look over there. That’s Ensign Phelps.”
Sergeant Kalin pointed to the sky on the other side of the barrier.
He was always doing a good job of keeping watch over the surrounding sky.
The small dot flying towards us grew larger and larger, and soon took the shape of Ensign Phelps.
Okay!
“Haaak! Haaak!”
Ensign Phelps took a deep breath.
“In the end, the Royal Guard Air Knights never came.”
“That is the situation.”
“······?”
“Just a moment ago, hundreds of Albion transports and enemy airborne units simultaneously crossed the border of the Tapeld Territory.”
“What? Is this a diversionary operation?”
“And the enemy airborne troops······.”
Phelps frowned and shook his head.
“It’s an orc.”
“Oak?”
“Yes! They say that orcs are parachuting into the Tapeld Estate carrying rifles.”
Orcs with rifles!
No, why is there an orc here?
Hah! Come in with your blinkers on!
