◈ 340. [STAGE 14] King & Knight (2)
Whoaaaaagh!
As I planted the flag and used the [Imperial Declaration], a dazzling light covered the area.
“what?!”
“What is this… … !”
Listening to the panicked screams of the task force, I grinned.
The place I lured them to is the base camp.
It is not a hostile area, so it does not enter the [Occupation War] state. However, it can generate territorial effects.
And within this realm,
Kurrureung!
You can form your own fortress!
Walls of gray magic rose from all over the area.
Swept away by the creation of the wall, the task force members shouted and rolled their bodies away from the wall.
“This is not okay. There are many good guides in this town.”
If you met a good guide like an unknown, you would have had a pleasant sightseeing time.
“Of course, it was caught by a vicious swindler like me!”
You all look like you’re going to die here!
“Prince Ash-!”
Realizing that I was the cause of this situation, Mason pounced on me, but
Kwajik!
A gray wall formed right in front of me, separating Mason from me.
I’m sorry, but this fortress can be transformed at will! Even in real time!
‘That means, in other words!’
It doesn’t even have to be in the form of a normal fortress! I mean it doesn’t even have to be a function of a fortress!
Charleuk! Charleureuk!
At first, the circular magic fortress, which was designated as the default value, is reassembled like a block in real time according to my will.
The fortress shrinks and compresses, changing shape from a circle to a square-
Kugu Palace!
Eventually, it was transformed into a rectangular parallelepiped structure.
Originally, it was a fortress to block attacks from outside.
Just this time, to trap those inside… … took on the role of a prison.
‘Rules are meant to be overturned!’
A fort turns into a prison if overturned.
In short, it’s a matter of how I play with it… … !
In my mind, I wanted to push the wall and crush it, but the size of the prison did not decrease anymore, as if it was resisting from the inside.
“I can’t get off until I buy all these things~”
After kicking the wall made of gray magical power and muttering, I turned around.
“majesty!”
“Are you okay, Your Highness?!”
The men who were waiting at the base camp ran to me.
Elise came along with the reserve party that had been dispatched to the upper ranks of Winter Silver, and Marherita also came from the temple.
“Ash! I don’t know what’s going on, just give me orders!”
And even Belldandi’s Holy Grail Exploration Team, which was waiting at the base camp. I guess I’ve gathered enough to collect this urgently.
Even with their wounded bodies, they could see the Shadow Unit, which had evacuated citizens and gathered troops all over the city.
I nodded to the three of them.
“Saintess, it’s enough for me, so start with the treatment of Lucas and the shadow unit.”
“Ah, I see… … !”
Marherita poured her recovery magic on Lucas first.
While checking the bloody body of Lucas to see how it healed, a Dwarf blacksmith came running from the other side.
“ash!”
“Yes, Kelly Bay. That’s me.”
“No, what the hell is this? I heard a rough explanation from God Hand who came first, but… … .”
“More on that later. than that.”
I held out my hand to Kelly Bay and nodded.
“The equipment you ordered must have been manufactured, right?”
“I was still making final adjustments, but… … .”
Kelly Bay grinned, twisting her thick beard, and held out the cloth-covered object to me.
“Well, originally weapons are finalized on the battlefield. It looks urgent, but put it into action right away.”
“thank you.”
slap-
When the cloth was removed, there was a long sword in a scabbard.
The cleanly polished, but simple design of the handle was quite familiar.
[The bestowed sword].
Lucas’ exclusive equipment was completed.
I took it and approached Lucas. After emergency treatment, Lucas staggered and stood straight in his seat.
“Lord.”
“Lucas.”
I held out the [sword given to me].

“Take it. It is your new weapon.”
“… … .”
Taking the long sword, Lucas looked down at the handle of the sword.
After a silent stare, Lucas’ mouth slowly opened.
“… … This sword was first bestowed upon me by my lord when I was a child.”
I listened quietly. Lucas continued.
“And one night when I betrayed my lord, the blade shattered.”
“… … .”
“Since then, I have always held this handle in my arms. Regarding my wrong choice that day… … To remind myself of regrets and vigilance.”
Clutching the handle, Lucas held out his sword to me again.
“I do not deserve this sword again.”
“… … Lucas.”
“I betrayed my lord, and carved an indelible wound on him… … It’s just a crazy dog that I’m ashamed to call myself a guard dog. I tried to run away from that fact, but this time, because of my past, my lord… … .”
“hey! shut up! Shut up!”
I squealed, and Lucas’ eyes widened.
I cried one more time
“take no interest!”
“yes?”
“I’m not even curious about the guy’s past!”
Lucas opened his mouth slightly. I stuck my index finger in and continued.
“What wrong have you done to me! I already forgot.”
no really I mean, because I don’t know.
“And no matter what else you do to me in the future! I will forget again.”
Pushing the outstretched sword again and forcing it into Lucas’ arms, I continued.
“betrayal?! Do it one more time! Do it twice, three times, four times! doesn’t care!”
“yes?! No, yes?!”
“If only you would come back to my side in the end and stay as my knight!”
I slowly removed the hand that had been pushing the sword.
“If you would be my friend again. That should be it.”
741 fail with me,
That’s what I said to the main character who reached the end of gear nose.
It may be a bit funny, but… … I was only watching on the computer monitor, but I considered you a friend from the beginning, who accompanied me on the 742th journey.
Lucas, who was blankly holding his sword, repeated.
“friend… … What?”
“Yes, Lucas.”
I shrugged.
“You and I are not owners and dogs, but friends and friends, right?”
“… … .”
“Well, of course, privately, but publicly, there is a military hierarchical relationship between a commander and a knight… … .”
I, who had been hesitantly putting it on, said “Eh-ra” and reduced my words.
“We are friends, Lucas. That fact, no matter what happened before, no matter what happens in the future, doesn’t change.”
“… … .”
“Or maybe I was the only one who thought so?”
“No, no… … .”
Lucas kept his mouth shut and shook his head.
A mess of tousled, blood-soaked blond hair hung down, covering his eyes.
“… … No, lord. never.”
After patting Lucas on the shoulder, I pointed towards the magic fortress.
“Suddenly, maintaining the walls is at its limit. Now the ones you locked inside will come out.”
I was in a mess, but after forcibly taking out all the magic potions from my inventory and inhaling them, I summoned a stronghold. Thanks to that, the limit came quickly.
I could see the magic fortress slowly crumbling. It will soon collapse completely.
“They are the villains plotting to bring down our lines.”
I looked around at my subordinates and nodded.
“I define They are the ‘monsters’ our Monster Front has to deal with… … Destroy them all!”
“yes-!”
The subordinates answered in unison.
Elise corrected her swordsman, and Belldandi and the Holy Grail Exploration Team took out their own equipment.
The shadow unit and reserve parties also prepared for battle, and Marherita cast shield magic over their bodies.
Lucas’s armor, which he had sent to Kelly Bay on the God Hand side, had been urgently repaired.
I said to Lucas who put on the armor with Kelly Bay’s help.
“Lucas.”
“yes.”
“Cut it off with that sword and come. your past.”
to the protagonist of this world.
As the possessed player, I grinned.
“Go.”
Lucas put the tin helmet in his hand and put it down quietly next to him, smiling faintly at him.
“… … yes. I’ll be back. Lord.”
The magic wall disappeared in the distance.
Belatedly, the remaining magic power drained from my body as if it were paying off, and then-
I passed out.
***
The Aegis Task Force Team 1 is a unit that selects only those who are good at fighting in the dark.
In fact, their combat power was quite high, and similar scores were obtained in mock battles with Imperial Knights.
If the use of ambush, ambush, and various tools were allowed, there were times when the knights were overwhelmed.
The fighting power of these individuals was to the extent that even the elite heroes of the Crossroads could not be defeated.
but.
This time, things went really bad.
Patter – Quguaguawang!
As soon as he teleported, he was trapped inside the gray walls, but when he was released, attacks poured in from all sides.
Burnout, who was preparing in advance, decided to pour out a pile of explosive arrows, and Body Bag threw the iron spear created by God Hand.
The Holy Grail Exploration Team led by Belldandi also shot shortbows and threw daggers.
Without cover, the task force caught up in this ranged fire projectile took heavy casualties in one fell swoop.
“Damn it! Break through in this direction at once!”
When Mason, who swung his greatsword and removed the arrows, looked back at his men with a harsh command,
There, a woman in a maid outfit with bobbed dark blue hair and a huge coffin on her back burst into it.
Some agents who recognized her identity became flagships.
“you… … ?!”
“No way, undertaker Elizabeth-”
Among the task force members urgently brandishing their weapons at her, Elise quietly pulled out the swords in the swordsman-
Chew! Chi Kang! Kagagagak!
Spinning like a top, it slaughtered the task force members at once.
Watching his subordinates fall one by one, Mason gritted his teeth.
‘As it is… … !’
that buck that buck
Then came the sound of approaching footsteps. Mason glared at him.
“Mason. Neither the dark side nor this kind of classified mission suits you.”
It was Lucas.
My steps were unsteady, perhaps because I was not in my condition yet, but only my two shining blue eyes were firm.
“Why don’t you join the Knights instead? Then I would have been able to use that ignorant swordsmanship.”
Mason grinned and straightened his grip on his huge greatsword.
“There is a part where Her Majesty Fernandez values me very highly. That’s why you entrusted me with this mission.”
“What part do you overestimate? what is that?”
“To survive.”
Mason laughed ferociously.
“No matter how strong the opponent is, no matter how terrible the situation, somehow, to survive and succeed in the mission… … ! I am confident in that one!”
“That miserable life ends here.”
Lucas slowly put his hand on the handle of his long sword.
“Let’s put an end to our bad streak, Mason.”
“It’s disappointing that it’s a bad relationship, Master Lucas.”
Taat-!
Kicking off the ground and flying towards Lucas, Mason slammed his greatsword down.
“There were times when we were good-!”
In response, Lucas drew his sword.
Charleuk… … !
As the simple handle slipped out of the scabbard, a softly shining sword body appeared beneath it.
Mason frowned.
‘What is that black?’
like… … It is like a blade made of light.
Chae Ae-Aeng!
Lucas’ light longsword and Mason’s greatsword clashed roughly.
Mason, who was struggling with sword blades, laughed with his mouth wide open.
“Is the color good? Are you new? It’s shiny and pretty, but what the hell is that sword?”
Lucas answered succinctly.
“My regrets. and… … .”
Kwak, put both hands together and firmly gripped the hilt of the sword,
Lucas sighed and concluded his words.
“… … my forgiveness.”
Tuhak-!
Lucas’s longsword glowed dazzlingly and began to emit light in all directions.
