Chapter 260 – Knights of the Round Table (4)
Occupy the castle Do-jin and his tribemates overpowered the soldiers and neutralized the castle with inexhaustible speed, but in this world where magic-based telecommunication exists, the news of their attack on the castle could not be hidden forever.
So when word reached the empire that the barbarians were attacking the castle, the empire’s reaction was lukewarm.
“Do you want to go?”
“Why?”
Royal Knights who protect the empire, 13 knights standing at the top. The Knights of the Round Table were reluctant to pass this task on to each other.
Dealing with barbarians on the border is easy. Since it was an easy task, there was no possibility of being noticed by the emperor.
If he thought that while he was chained there and struggling in vain, something else broke out and the other knights of the round table climbed on top of him- that was truly terrible.
“How about sending Aruru?”
“-What? Why do I have to go to a place like that?”
“Well, is that because you completely undid the direct order of His Majesty the Emperor?”
At that, Aruru flinched and started grinding his teeth. As he said, the rumor that Aruru had met the Emperor in the hospital room quickly spread throughout the Knights.
It is rare for a single knight to treat the emperor alone. It didn’t take long for it to be revealed that Aruru had been given a secret mission by the Emperor and had failed and ended up lying in a hospital room.
“It’s nice to be able to do something like this. Oh, is this going to fail too?”
Haha- do you want to die?”
As Aruru draws out her weapon in her rage, the Knights of the Round Table, who have been sitting around her and quietly watching, subdue her at the same time.
She can’t fight and defeat a dozen people who are equal to or better than her. Aruru let go of her rage and drew her weapon her.
‘That son of a bitch….’
He focused on the meeting, vowing to jump over the topic just one seat higher than himself.
Inconclusive for a long time In this case, I ended up with a solution.
“Then vote.”
Vote of the Knights of the Round Table. Aruru knew very well that in this case, she would win the election unconditionally.
Of these, she herself is the weakest. All the knights of the round table have equal rights, but if you are the last among them, you will be ignored without implicitly.
“Given the number of collapsed castles, it seems that at least two people will have to go. Will no one volunteer?”
“… Me.”
“Renata?”
At that time, 11 seats. Renata volunteered by raising her hand her. Feeling that her job her would be made easier by the fact that she had volunteered, Seat 1 nodded her head and proceeded to cast her vote.
“Then Aruru should go for the other one. Who is against it?”
In this surprisingly democratic vote, Aruru received a whopping zero vote. In other words, it also meant that her articles her supported her election her 100%.
Aruru had no choice but to calm her anger inwardly. Well, what is she doing here because she says she’s against it?
‘That unlucky bastard….’
She glared at herself and then looked at the 12 Seoks who laughed mischievously. Yeah, the only way she somehow managed to catch the Emperor’s eye on this mission was for her to rise to the 12th seat.
So, Aruru and Renata led the knights to the border. The time has come to show the power of the Empire to the stupid barbarians.

“Probably, the elite troops will come soon.”
“What are you talking about? I killed them all, how?”
At Dojin’s words, one of the tribe members tilted his head. Unable to understand magic and the advances in communication technology that led to it, these primitive people had no idea that their aggression had already been uncovered.
That’s right, it’s because they wiped out everyone without anyone escaping from the castle.
Prior to the development of communication, information transmission was by jumping on one’s feet or riding a horse. It was only one of them.
Of course, you could use a specially trained bird or something, but at least I didn’t see the bird when they invaded the castle.
“Now, take this.”
Do-jin realized that it was faster to just show them directly than to explain painfully to such primitive people.
He received the transparent communication sphere and directed the clan member who tilted his head away from him so that he could not be seen.
The fast-footed tribesman ran faster than the horse for an instant and disappeared from sight in an instant. Do-jin, who confirmed him, poured magic into his communication sphere.
“Ah, can you hear me?”
─What, what!? This! I hear your voice!
“Ah, this is a communication port….”
Do-jin, who used the same tone that Deok-gu used to explain something modern to the locals, informed his tribe members of the use of communication-gu and the resulting strategic tactics.
“Okay? The Empire has this kind of technology, so no matter how fast your feet are or if you annihilate without leaving a single person behind, everything you do will be known.”
“That means…….”
“The Empire will also know that we invaded the castle and will send troops.”
At that, the tribe members’ expressions became serious. Horrible memories of what they’ve been through come flooding into their heads.
An endless rain of arrows and magic baptism. An inexhaustible number of knights protecting archers and wizards.
How do you get through the armored knights who can’t be destroyed even with their own strength, and barely reach the archers and wizards? The knights retreat surprisingly quickly.
Leaving the archers and magicians as bait – the angry tribesmen kill them all, and the next day they attack again with twice that number.
The Empire’s forces seem truly limitless. You give them flesh and take their bones, and the next day they appear with new bones.
The tribe cannot afford the unilateral consumption of troops. With one or two tribe members dying every day, the lack of personnel was still an unresolved task.
“What are you so worried about?”
After hearing their concerns his, Aderange smiled and raised his soldiers from the shadows.
Thousands of troops were stationed in the nearby castle. Aderange, who made all of them his own, was already a corps commander with an army.
“I have an army. An army that never dies. With this, we don’t have to worry about losing troops.”
Aderange then pointed to the weapons and logistics that were scattered around. It was such a large amount that it seemed like the entire tribe could have a party for an entire month.
If we were to build a sit-in here, it would be enough for the warriors to eat for a year.
In other words, there is room here.
“Wasting arrows and weapons you don’t use just because you protect nature. They wouldn’t set such strict standards even for weapons that have already been made, right?”
“It is not… ?”
“Then I will take up arms. And use it There are a lot of bows and arrows, javelins for throwing, and weapons that don’t matter if they break.”
Relaxation soon activates the brain. The strategy and tactics of the members of the tribe, who had been stiflingly hardened, are growing.
They laugh and chat with each other, talking about how to kill enemies more easily.
They do not hesitate to do inefficient acts that they would not have dreamed of.
“How is it, master?”
“… What?”
Ade Lange, who opened her imagination to her tribe members, secretly clung to her side of her.
She licked her lips as she watched the tribesmen prepare to fight the enemy, burning her eyes before her eyes her.
“Aren’t these going to bring me death? Socheop’s favorite death and blood…”
“So, what is it?”
“-Somewhat blunt. Host. Is something going on?”
“Just, nothing happened.”
Do-jin said so, but Ade Lange, who shared her blood, blood, soul and soul with Do-jin, was able to understand his heart her right away.
He came here to prevent war. In order to clear up the barbarians and prevent the greedy empire from turning the world into a sea of fire by going to war all over the world.
But what about reality? I had to fight the empire to prevent a war with the empire, and I had to kill people to kill less people.
This extremely contradictory phenomenon made her owner feel empty.
“Right. I fully understand, Master.”
“… Didn’t you say anything?”
“There are things between us that can be known even without speaking.”
She has met a lot of people who have such concerns. She is a sage who is disappointed when things in the world go differently than she thought.
From a soldier who realized that he had to become a devil to become a hero, to a priest who could see no good but evil in the world.
Numerous human groups had the same thoughts as Dojin. Getting it off was very simple.
“Trust what the master thinks is right.”
“That’s stubborn.”
“I know. I’m telling you to be stubborn. Host.”
A firm belief that is not shaken by others. This can be egotistical, but it can also become a pillar to support a human being.
What- Even my master will figure it out on his own when he gets older. So, until my master realizes, she’s probably better off helping herself a little.
She herself was his pet vampire.
“He is coming.”
“Finally.”
And at that time, I saw an army rushing from the sight of the people that Aderange had sent away.
Dojin stood up with a weapon and drew the attention of her tribe members to her.
“An enemy is coming.”
The Imperial Army is coming.
Our adversary.
“Pick up your weapon.”
Take the bow
Listen to the window
Shoot towards the Empire.
“The time has come to show who we are.”
