Chapter 10 – An Outbreak of Civil War (3)

The injured Heinze was easily able to defeat a few dozen knights by himself, and while doing so would give them a gap to rush in and kill Lloyd.

“You’re not allowed to do that.”

“Huh?!”

The eyes of the vice-captain of the mounted knights grew wide.

A huge wall of dirt suddenly shot out from the ground and blocked the party.

“Wh, what is this!”

Something else had occurred. As the flat ground suddenly turned into a downhill road, the vice-captain clenched his teeth and veered away.

“We’re going to head towards the right!”

“Yessir!”

They could shoot through the dirt wall with their lances, but the vice-captain decided to go around it instead.

He believed there was no reason for them to strain themselves, since there was no way their opponent could keep summoning like this. And it would become more advantageous for them if they dragged the fight on.

“Unfortunately, you guys won’t be able to get out from there.”

“C, crazy!”

The vice-captain turned pale with astonishment.

The earth moved like a wave as earth spears began to shoot out.

For their role in the assault, their horses were also wearing armor, but there was none protecting their feet.

Furthermore, they were rushing forward with all their might, so it was impossible to dodge.

Neeiiigggh!!!

The horses fell while making gruesome sounds.

They were helpless against the earth spears that shot forth from the ground.

However, the problem was with the knights.

As they were on top of the horses, they fell to the ground in a terrible way.

“Ugh!”

“Ahk!”

The knights couldn’t help it as they were wearing heavy armor and had suddenly been dropped to the ground.

Additionally, the horses that were behind them also fell on top of them, so they died one after the other without being able to fight.

“Ahhhhhh!! You son of a bitch!”

Pulling his body out from the mess, the vice-captain screamed with bloodshot eyes, because half of his platoon were either dead or hurt in an instant.

They had yet to even fight properly, but with the slight movement of Jade’s fingers, their platoon had completely been dealt with. In a fury, the vice-captain kicked the ground and rushed toward Jade.

Woosh! Woosh!

However, he was only able to move forward a few steps as the War Elves arrows shot through the arrows of the other archers.

A mana less arrow was powerless in front of the vice-captain, but a War Elf’s arrow was different.

“Aghhhh!!”

Using his shield, he blocked the arrows that were aimed at his joints, then quickly grabbed a lance that was laying on the ground and rushed towards Jade once more.

He had jumped forth after amassing all his mana and took proper aim at this target.

Wooshh!

With the snap of his wrist, the lance was now rotating and rushing towards Jade with immense force.

However, contrary to his spirit, the vice-captain’s attack futilely failed.

Jade had used his sword made of the Black Drake’s tooth to easily flick away the incoming attack.

Squish!

Unable to believe what had just occurred, an earth spear shot through the vice-captain’s stomach.

The earth spirit had timed its attack perfectly and had shot the spear through the back of its target.

“Ugh!”

Although the vice-captain attempted to bring his aura together after the stealth attack, it didn’t seem to work.

The firmly compressed earth spear had already punctured through his full plate mail and through his stomach.

“Kuk!”

“S, save…..”

This was the same for the other knights as well.

Although some had survived, they wished they had died on the spot instead.

Poo Pook!

Without hesitation, Noes dealt with the survivors.

As it was just a spirit, it didn’t care much for a human’s life.

It just loyally carried out Jade’s will.

“D, damn it!”

Seeing his subordinates die trapped within the ground, the vice-captain cursed out loud.

However, nothing changed even if he did, because shortly after, he fell to the ground filled with blood with his eyes closed.

Bang!!

Around the time of the annihilation of the mounted group, their fight was also coming close to an end.

They were equals at the beginning of the fight, but at a certain point, there was a big tilt in power.

“Ugh!”

With the frantic oncoming attacks from the dual blades, Viscount Madrane took a few steps back.

His chest also had a long, diagonal cut on it.

As he used his sword to block one of the swords, the second sword flashed through and cut him.

“Viscount!”

The viscount’s knights yelled out as they could see that the cut was deeper than it appeared.

They wanted to rush forth as soon as they could to help their leader.

“Who are you? From what I know of, Arhan shouldn’t have a Master capable of using a dual sword. Are you a knight that was trained in secret?”

“You talk a lot.”

“……female?”

“Why? Are females not allowed to become Master’s?”

The viscount’s eyebrows shook, because he didn’t think the opponent he was facing till now was a female.

“Agggghh!!!”

Suddenly, a gruesome scream could be heard nearby.

Anyone could tell it was the sound of someone dying, and furthermore, a slight tremor could be felt from the ground.

“E, everyone is dead! They were all annihilated!”

‘Annihilated?’

Viscount Madrane’s eyes shook.

He was unable to see what was happening around him because he was focused on the girl in front of him. However, he knew the mounted party was also on the attack.

Yet, it was unbelievable for him to hear that they had all been killed because he himself knew how strong their party was.

“Shouldn’t we decide the victor soon as well?”

“Aren’t you getting yourself too involved with another countries’ affairs? How are you going to deal with the repercussions of your actions?”

The Viscount spoke as he stopped his chest from bleeding with his left hand.

He knew the Crown Prince’s mother was from Arhan, but he still felt they were getting too involved with their business.

“Are you threatening me right now?”

“It’s not a threat but a friendly suggestion, as a war could happen in Arhan as well. I’m sure Arhan wouldn’t want that to happe.”

He had spoken in a roundabout way, but it was clear what he was trying to say.

Unless you want to start a war, stop what you’re doing.

However, the girl in front him smiled instead of responding back.
