Chapter 92 – Chapter 92 to the South, Further South. (2)

Above the great barrier that divides the empire’s borders to the north.
Guards were standing guard at their respective positions, facing the cold wind.

“It is getting colder now. Sifal. Why do you think it’s colder than last year?”
“Aren’t you on vacation soon, Corporal?”
“What do you do when you take a vacation? I have no home or family anyway.”
“Still, since it’s winter, wouldn’t it be nice to warm up your body if you go to a warm area?”
“That would be good.”
“What if corporal goes on vacation and barbarians attack? You’re a warrior of reversal.”

The corporal snorted at the recruit’s words.

“Barbarians are people too. They never come in the winter.”
“Why?”
“Because it looks like it’s going to be cold. Haven’t you experienced how severe the cold wave is in the north? You will find out sooner or later.”
“Is it that cold?”
“Why is there a guard post over there…”

The corporal caught something strange in his eyes as he pointed to the guard post on the wall.

“What is that?”
“Uh? Corporal, that… Aren’t they barbarians?”
“What crazy!”

A group of barbarians suddenly appeared.
They were all on horseback and armed.
It didn’t come with good intentions.
Did the barbarians ever come with good intentions in the first place?

“Surprise attack! It is a surprise attack by barbarians!”

The corporal started beating the bell on the guard post without mercy.

“The barbarians have invaded! Everyone on alert!”

The wall was noisy with the sound of bells.
Soldiers who had spent their daily lives peacefully a while ago grabbed their weapons and stood in place.

In the eyes of the corporal who sounded the warning at the post.

“I-what is that?”

I saw a man floating in the air, floating and flying.
White mask.
A wolf’s cloak worn over the shoulder of his.
And he was a man wearing the clothes common to barbarians.

“Magic… Buy?”

Are there wizards among the Cruy?
However, the corporal’s words did not go further.

Fu-wook!

“Gagging!”

Because needles made of ice attacked the guard post.

“It’s a wizard!”

There was almost no defense against magic on the wall.
The reason was simple.
It was because the savages used incantations to strengthen the body, not magic.
And there.

Who would have thought that an 8th circle mage would appear from the north and attack the barrier?
Maurice’s magic caused a stir in the solid barrier.

Bang! Bang!

The wall of the castle was completely dug in with one giant ice magic.

“Raise your shield! Hold on no matter what!”
“Isn’t there a magic bullet? Reload quickly!”
“Notify the other lord’s castle of an emergency!”

The sudden appearance of magic made the barrier turbulent.

“Damn it! Where the hell did that wizard come from? Hey Communication Wizard!”

The commander of the wall called a wizard who communicates with other lord castles.

“Yes, yes?”
“Can’t you use defense magic?”
“That, that…”
“Tell me quickly! Don’t procrastinate!”
“Boo, that’s impossible.”
“What?”
“No matter how much magic I use, it’s impossible to stop that magic.”
“Is that all? Is that the most you can do with that snout!”
“I’m sorry.”
“You idiot!”

This is what the sorcerer is supposed to be like.
The commander’s eyes turned to the magician floating in the sky.
He was a wizard who appeared from nowhere.
Did any of the savages have a wizard of that level?
It was not in his memory.

“Where in the world did this existence appear?”

The commander sensed defeat.
10,000 soldiers guarding the wall.
He was struggling because he couldn’t keep a wizard in check.
Before the group, it was a powerful wizard who was superior to ten sword masters.

‘Right now there is no sword master to keep that wizard in check.’

Less than a year has passed since the barrier was breached by the rebels.
Now, the excuse that it was opened from the inside does not work.

“Does the fortune of the empire end here?”

At that time, a man appeared in the commander’s mind.
An empire wizard and war hero who drove barbarians out of the wall without a fight in the past.
Maurice Dmitry.

‘If he comes.’

Even if the barrier is breached now, I will drive them out of that barrier again.
Even that mage who is now ravaging the walls and soldiers.
Maurice would not be an opponent.

After all, what a mere commander can do.

“Guard the gates! It must not be pierced in any way!”

That was all.
Buying time somehow to prevent barbarians from overrunning the Imperial territory.

***

“As expected, it will be soon.”

Snow White looked at the captured imperial soldiers and said,
Most of the Imperial soldiers fought to the death, but many of them surrendered.
The battle ended too easily.
It was too easy to deal with the Imperial Army, who had lost their fighting spirit due to Maurice’s magic attack.
The cavalry pierced the castle gate smashed by magic and cut down the enemies in an instant.

“Long live Chief Snow White!”
“Long live the chieftain!”

The cheers of the victorious soldiers echoed through the walls.
The chieftains, who were full of doubts until the start of the campaign, were already looking at Snow White as if they were half possessed.
It was natural.
Even though he didn’t open it himself, he broke through the barrier without sacrificing himself.

“By the way, are you okay?”
“What do you mean?”
“You killed the people of the Empire with my own hands.”
“Okay.”
“Looks like you’ve got something on your mind.”

The barbarians who came down through the barrier with the mysterious wizard.
Repel the magician, reform the savages, and make them live under the wall.
There must be opposition even within the aristocracy.
However, no one in the emperor’s army would want to die.

“I thought of a justification to convince the aristocrats.”
“What would you like me to do?”
“Garrison here and advance only as far as the Volke line, where there is a wide plain. However.”
“However?”
“It is absolutely forbidden to attack or plunder civilians.”
“I know.”

Snow White leaned against me.

“Are you leaving today?”
“I guess so.”

I needed to see what was going on in the capital.
I also had to look at the forces of the emperor’s army moving in the west and south.

“This is something that will protect you while I am gone.”

I handed the headband to Snow White.
It was a headband made by the most famous designer in the empire.
A headband made of a material that can contain magic.
It was a magic shield that could block any attack and an alarm spell that called me.

“Have a good kick.”
“Ah… Thank you. I will cherish it.”

Snow White held his headband tightly in his arms.

“Girl, before you leave, I have a request for you…”
“Something?”
“I won’t miss you until you come back…”

Snow White twisted his body and clung to me.

“Is it not enough to do that last night?”
“That is… Maurice-sama is so unselfish that I keep repeating it without even realizing it…”

I quietly looked down at her.

“Saying that, I can’t help it.”

I took Snow White and entered the most ornate room of the Wall.
Shortly after entering the room, Snow White’s moans rang out.

***

Maurice’s office located in the Magic Tower.
Jane shouted, alerted by the sudden attack of the soldiers.

“Your majesty! Now, do you know what this means?”

Even if you were an emperor, it was one of the taboos that you shouldn’t lead soldiers into the Mage Tower.

“Kick, anywhere the sun shines in the Empire is where I can go. Wouldn’t you dare to block the Sun of the Empire with something like the Transcendental Body?”
“This is breaking an ancient covenant.”
“The Minister of Magic, the owner of such a proud magic tower, is also the Emperor of the Empire! Don’t you know I’m appointing you?”
“Your Majesty! That, too, is a promise…”
“It’s a promise… If you dare to strangle me with a few lines from now-forgotten history, I’m in trouble.”

Jane saw the emperor acting forcefully in front of her eyes.
Hiding among the soldiers, the emperor was in a haggard state, as if he hadn’t eaten or slept in days.
Red bloodshot eyes and deeply sunken eyes. Crisp, yellowish skin.
In addition, he flinched and laughed as if he had a seizure in the middle of talking.
I even heard doubts about whether this person was the emperor who showed off the majesty of the empire in the past.

“Find it quickly! I dare you to search the office of the Minister of Magic who kidnapped the empress!”
“Your Majesty the Emperor!”

Jane shouted, revealing her teeth her, but that was all.
Even though she was her transcendence chain of her, he could n’t have enough physical strength to kill people.
The Overmind of Observation.
She lost her body in a battle between transcendent bodies in the past.
Right.
She was the one who had already experienced her death her once.
Now, due to a contract with the first owner of the Mage Tower in the past, his soul did not go to the underworld and was bound to the Mage Tower.

Because of that, I couldn’t stop the soldiers from searching the office.

“If it comes out like this, I cannot allow Your Majesty to appoint a new Minister for Magic.”
“Kick! You didn’t mean to do that anyway.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“I knew you were hanging out with Maurice by guessing. I believe in you, hehe, Maurice must have dared to attack me.”
“…”

Jane shut her mouth.
How?

“Don’t underestimate the Empire’s information network. Big, big.”

The laughing emperor ordered to his soldiers.

‘I can’t believe he’s trying to search here.’

To dig into the Minister of Magic’s secrets, reveal that he’s not fit for the job, and get him to step down?

Jane bit her lip.

‘Minister, you have to come quickly.’
Without her powers, she couldn’t stop it.
Where the hell did Maurice go?

“I found it!”

A soldier’s cry drew everyone’s attention to it.
It was the same with Jane.

“This is a report on Her Majesty.”
“Oh, yes? Let’s see.”

The emperor forgot his body language and ran to the soldier.
And there.

– Report on the empress’ escape.
– Emily.

There was a report detailing how and where the empress would be taken.

“Kkeuk! Maurice, Emily, you bastards… Heck, they’re all dead.”

No one in the room could open their mouths at the emperor’s mad laughter.
