Episode 74. Save the territory! (1)
“It’s morning. During this time, demons and monsters do not appear. “Warm up quickly.”
“Ugh. “My whole body aches.”
“So come here.”
It’s still chilly winter weather here.
These are two soldiers standing guard on the castle wall.
The two sat close to the dying surveillance bonfire and talked.
“I’m glad that last night passed safely. “Last Kapros month was really scary.”
“that’s right… … . “I thought the world was going to end.”
The voice was full of fear.
“I have never been so scared in my life. Now that I think about it, it reminds me of Omon and Check who died back then. Children, it has been quite cold, but the ground is warm… … .”
A soldier warming himself by the fire told a story about his previously dead comrades.
A moist voice.
I think the camaraderie is extraordinary.
“Megs, did you see the lord who came yesterday?”
“I didn’t see it. “You went straight into the inner room.”
“I saw you on the castle wall for a moment yesterday, and you looked quite young. Rumors say it’s the Count, but why did he come to a place like this? … .”
“The answer is obvious.”
“yes? “I guess he’s a helpless person like us.”
bingo!
The words of the homeless are the lords of this place.
“Don’t say that. Still, the lord must have slept in a warm place… … Haven’t we been here all night wearing only mediocre armor? In the past, we still worked in two shifts at night, but there weren’t enough soldiers… … . “I feel like I’m going to die from exhaustion.”
The soldiers’ condition was worse than expected.
Fatigue is directly related to morale.
“It’s okay even if it’s hard, so I hope I get some money. “It’s my youngest daughter’s birthday tomorrow, and I can’t even feed her, let alone give her a gift.”
“Don’t complain. Still, aren’t we intact as a family? You have to think of other people. The families of the dead colleagues did not receive much compensation. How should they live… … .”
The sad reality of Yeongji.
“that’s right. “I’m complaining that I’m full.”
“By the way, let’s go eat now. “Seeing that you’re hungry makes me think you survived today.”
“haha. that’s right. “I’m alive today.”
The soldiers consoled themselves.
A cross section representing the situation of the territory.
I quietly returned to my office.
sat down on the chair.
My shoulders feel heavy.
The position of permanent lord is not easy.
The life and death of more than 10,000 residents of the territory depended on me.
smart.
“My lord. “It’s Perorin!”
“Come in.”
The door opened and Perorin came in.
“Are you awake already?”
Sir Perorin, surprised.
It’s not that I woke up, I couldn’t sleep.
“Would you like to do morning training together?”
“It is an honour!”
Perorin and other territory soldiers will also be curious.
How powerful their new lord must be.
A morale boost is needed.
What is desperately needed in a territory full of monsters is expert!
“Go to the soldiers’ training ground.”
“yes!”
I think you get what I mean.
A soldiers’ training center located in the inner courtyard.
“Taaat!”
Kaga River!
“I have to stab it! “If you get soft, you’ll die!”
“All right!”
Dozens of soldiers were sweating beadily.
Morning training time.
“It’s Knight Perorin!”
“Huh, my lord?”
“!!!”
When Sir Perorin and I appeared, the soldiers’ training stopped.
All eyes were focused.
That moment.
“What are they doing! “Pay respect to your lord!”
A ranting article.
“Chu, chuuuuung!”
Military discipline is not a mess.
The startled soldiers shouted for the training camp to leave.
“I’ll give up the first strike.”
“… main… army.”
Perorin is embarrassed.
He grinned.
“Don’t you have faith in my skills?”
“Oh, no!”
Sreung.
I took out my sword.
The same goes for Lord Perorin.
Each took a stance.
“Use your spirit.”
“!!!”
Spirit was injected into the sword before Perorin.
“Don’t worry.”
“I follow your orders!”
Faaah!
A shining sword.
Sir Perorin also drew his sword and filled it with spirit.
Squeezing and hitting Go-Stop is a specification.
“Come.”
“Be careful!”
Sir Perorin leaves his seat as soon as he finishes speaking.
Love it.
Good posture!
A fast sword that cuts through the waist without any fuss.
The stronger your skills, the less complicated your herbivorous diet becomes.
Based on his powerful spirit, he can instantly cut down his opponent.
Sword, shield, body too!
But there is still a long way to go.
A standard attack stance that is clearly visible.
A sword approaching at a close distance.
I swung my sword lightly.
Kaang!
“Ugh!”
Sir Perorin retreats with a short scream as the swords collide.
It’s a surprised look.
He is the family’s chief knight.
The former lord was a man of great ability.
An article that such a person believed in.
Once you hit it, you will find the answer.
I think I will be able to rise to the top level soon.
A person worthy of teaching.
I feel good.
“Take it!”
Boom!
I jumped out of my seat and launched myself.
Pot!
A sword falling towards the head like the teeth of a comb.
Kagang! Kaga River!
Sparks flew continuously.
The sword cutting through the air stabbed, cut, and slashed.
Teodeokteodeok.
Sir Perorin blocks and hastily retreats.
Cold sweat flows down my face.
There is no counterattack.
I realized I was watching.
Finishing time.
Buuuuung!
The sword slashes straight towards Perorin’s raised blade.
“Huh!”
“uh!!!”
It felt like my body was going to be cut in two!
Moans erupted from the mouths of the soldiers who were watching.
A blow that fast.
Perorin quickly raised his sword and blocked it.
The best defense.
Do you think you can stop it that easily?
My wrists gained more strength.
and.
Kaaaaaaaa!
A huge impact sound.
Fuuuuk.
The sword left Perorin’s hand and was deeply embedded in the hard stone floor.
Overwhelming difference in force.
“Waaaaaaaa!”
“Woah, the lord has won!”
The soldiers erupted in cheers.
All the worries about the defending soldiers that had filled my mind just moments ago were blown away in one go.
In such a difficult territory, the lord’s skills are directly related to life.
The morale of the soldiers soared at once.
“My lord! “You are amazing!”
Perorin, this bachelor’s face is filled with emotion again.
It’s like a pure soul.
“I’ll buy you a beer on payday.”
“Chuung!”
The answer is loud even though you don’t even get a monthly salary.
Pabababat.
The gaze of the soldiers watching is passionate.
I clearly grasped the new lord’s skills.
The board I wanted was laid out.
“My soldiers!”
He put strength into his voice.
At this point, I had to make it clear that he was a lord.
“Trust and follow this lord! “I swear in the name of all the gods that I will share the glory with you!!!”
A loud voice echoed through my inner being.
An oath made in the name of God and nothing else.
“Waaaaaa!”
Coo! Coo!
“insect! insect! insect! insect!”
Soldiers shouting their loyalty while striking the floor with their weapons.
Joy blooming on your face.
The first morning at the estate.
What a great day… … .
