I became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 117
Chapter 33 Monster Army (2)
“You damn monster!”
A knight holding a sword blazing with blue mana rushed towards the troll who was about to put an entire soldier in his mouth and swung his sword.
Suddenly!
The troll fell down with its head cut off without even reacting in any way.
“Are you okay?”
The knight who finished the troll by piercing its heart approached the soldier and asked.
But the soldier did not answer that question.
No, I couldn’t answer.
“Back, back… … !”
He just pointed his finger at the driver’s back with a white face.
The moment the knight looked back,
Pow!
Even faster than that, the knight’s upper body was blown away by a huge fist swinging from behind.
The owner of that fist is a gray ogre with a large sword in one eye.
Soon after.
-Gaaaa!
The ogre raises its red-hot fist and roars toward the battlefield, along with the lower body of the falling knight.
Then, he turned his remaining eye in all directions and began looking for the next victim.
at that time,
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The ogre suddenly raised his head at the sound of something burning coming from above.
What catches the eye of such a monster are bright red fireballs that appear to be hundreds of feet taller.
-Huh?
The moment a questioning voice comes out of the Ogre’s mouth as he looks at the fireballs coming down, dyeing the sky red, it’s like, kwagwagwagwagwang!
Fireballs exploded on the ground, erasing all the monsters around them, including the ogre.
“The strike on the left watchtower of the fortress has been completed.”
“Immediately focus our attacks on the group of monsters in the center of the fortress. “Get ready to chant right away!”
The magicians of the Romelio Wizards of the Steel Fortress, who were bombarding the battlefield with magic from above, began to memorize new spells at the leader’s words.
However, their order was not completed until the end.
Wow!
The Wyverns that were flying in the sky above the fortress accompanied by a roar came down at the same time and attacked them.
“Kwaaaak!”
Wizards who are torn to pieces by the claws of such wyverns, unable to even leave a trace.
“… … “You got it right.”
A middle-aged man with sideburns and beard growing haphazardly muttered quietly as he looked at the battlefield inside the fortress, which was already no different from hell.
The man’s name is Jordan.
He was the commander of the 7th Agnes Legion in charge of the Steel Fortress and the commander-in-chief of the defense of the Monster Legion.
Kwaaaa!
“Stop it… … Argh!”
How on earth did this happen?
Clearly, the steel fortress was extremely strong until a few hours ago.
Therefore, it was thought that it would be possible to prevent periodic invasions by monsters, as has been the case so far.
But today was different.
“Save me… … .”
Kwazizig!
The number of monsters has increased several times compared to usual.
In addition, powerful monsters that were not seen during the previous invasion were also visible here and there.
Three hours after the siege began, the castle gate was broken by mole-shaped monsters that invaded the ground, and after that, the monsters continued to surge into the fortress.
“If we keep going like this… … .”
The remaining power was still strong, and only a part of the monster army had arrived, not all of it, so it seemed like they would be able to prevent this attack somehow.
but.
‘If we lose any more power here, we won’t be able to prevent the next attack anyway.’
Normally, the invasion cycle would have been every three weeks to a month, but there was no way they would miss this opportunity.
They will definitely launch their next attack right away.
Ordinary monsters would not have the intelligence to think of such a thing, but since all the monsters currently invading the fortress were being commanded by one being, it was entirely possible.
‘Monster King Horrible.’
Even he, who had been in the fortress for over a year, had never actually seen it, but he was certain of its existence.
Otherwise, there would be no way for so many monsters to move together like an army.
Among them especially,
Big ah ah ah!
In the middle of the battlefield, a huge Poison Drake roars loudly and spews poisonous mist in all directions, kikikikik!
A Lord Goblin unit that indiscriminately slaughters humans everywhere, with their entire bodies covered in enormous amounts of mana.
There was no other way to explain these beings, who were the strongest among the monsters here now.
To begin with, the Poison Drake was a monster that could not even take a single step out of the huge swamp in the great forest.
The Lord Goblin was strong enough to transcend its natural species, but it was an individual that moved entirely alone.
‘If we just deal with those guys, we’ll be able to somehow prevent the attack with minimal damage… … .’

Of course, there were strong people within the legion who could handle them, but they were lacking in numbers and were in a position where they could not move carelessly as they were blocking the core area.
“Alternative support… … “When will it come?”
An official letter received from the Imperial Palace a few days ago.
It was said that one of the royal family was coming here to suppress the disaster.
Of course Jordan knew.
It would take at least a week for the royal family, who had made all preparations, starting with forming a punitive force, to arrive at this fortress.
So it was just a vain hope, but now was the time to hope for at least such a miracle.
at that time,
Key geek?
One of the Lord Goblins met the eyes of Jornan.
Was that even a signal?
Kikikikikiki!
Starting with the goblin that made eye contact, all the Lord Goblins on the battlefield began to run like crazy towards Jordan.
“It’s coming this way! Stop it!”
“We must protect the commander!”
The knights and soldiers nearby blocked the path of the oncoming Lord Goblin unit, but Sugagagaaak!
My entire body was torn apart without being able to withstand even a single moment.
In a way, it was a natural result since each individual was a being with a force comparable to that of the imperial castle’s elite knights.
Kekekeek!
One of the Lord Goblins, who had slaughtered the knights blocking the attack in an instant, let out a creepy laugh and rushed right in front of Jordan.
Along with that, a young despair in his eyes.
There was no way that Yornan, who was no different from an ordinary knight in terms of military power, could deal with the Lord Goblin.
Sigh!
The goblin’s scythe, blazing with bright yellow mana, swung towards him,
“Oh God.”
It was the moment when a voice of resignation flowed from Jordan’s mouth as he felt his own end.
Let’s go!
An eerie sound came to his ears, as if fingernails were scratching a blackboard.
At the same time, dozens of red lines were drawn all over the body of the Lord Goblin who was swinging the scythe, and then boom!
It split along the line.
“This… … .”
Jornan was staring blankly at the goblin’s body, which had instantly been reduced to a piece of meat. Then, a cheerful voice that did not suit the situation was heard in his ears.
“This is a complete buffet, right?”
He turned his head towards the direction from which the voice came, and what he saw in his eyes was a woman with impressive red eyes that were reminiscent of the moon.
The woman immediately turned her head away as if she was not paying attention to Jordan, who was looking at her with a questioning gaze.
“There are also special meals.”
He smiled eerily as he looked at the Lord Goblin troop approaching behind him.
At the same time, the woman’s hand, which was slowly raised towards the front, was wide open.
That moment,
Together!
Hundreds of blood-red lines spread out like spiderwebs from the inside of her hand, accompanied by the same horrifying sound she had heard for the first time.
The red lines tightened after covering the entire goblin unit that was accurately charging at them.
Kikikick!?
The Lord Goblins, feeling threatened, drew out their mana and swung their weapons, but Kwajijijijik!
Even high-level defensive techniques were useless against the red line that split without resistance.
Just like the first goblins, dozens of Lord Goblins were cut into pieces and scattered around by the blood-red net.
“how… … .”
Jordan’s eyes swelled to the point where they could no longer grow as he saw the beings who were no different than the rulers of the battlefield being torn apart in an instant.
But his astonishment did not end there.
“Kyahahahahaha!”
A woman who immediately enters the battle taking place on the other side and begins slaughtering the monsters in earnest.
That’s it!
Kiaaaaaa!
The monsters begin to tear apart without even being able to properly resist.
A feast of blood-red lines and handshakes endlessly exploding in all directions!
The sight was so bizarre and overwhelming that even someone who knew nothing about combat could see how great the woman’s skills were.
“no way… … .”
A trembling voice flows from Jordan’s mouth.
It was then that a light of hope slowly began to appear in his eyes.
Ah ah ah ah!
Did he feel that the battlefield was becoming unfavorable?
The Poison Drake, which was spewing poison in all directions from the center of the fortress, let out a loud roar and opened its mouth.
An enormous amount of toxic breath begins to gather in Drake’s mouth.
“B-it’s breath!”
The soldiers of the legion who saw this shouted with white faces.
Drake, a subspecies of dragon, was able to use breath suited to each attribute, and its power was stronger than high-level magic of level 7 or higher.
If it hits a place like this, at least thousands of people will melt into a handful of liquid.
“Damage!”
“wherever… … .”
Death and despair appear in the eyes of the knights and soldiers.
It was finally the moment when Drake was about to release his peak breath.
—————–!
It was a thunderbolt.
A pitch-black thunderbolt stained with an alien darkness.
A black thunderbolt falls from the sky, annihilating Drake’s head in its path and then drawing a straight line to the floor.
A little later than that,
Kwagwagwagwa!
A shock wave that explodes along its trajectory and shatters the surroundings.
Suddenly, a black spear with strange characters engraved on it was stuck in the ground where the lightning struck.
Coo!
The battlefield becomes momentarily silent as Drake’s headless corpse falls.
In the middle of the battlefield, a man calmly appeared and pulled out Agdvar from where it was stuck.
A man with dark gray hair and bored eyes who symbolizes the royal family of the Agnes Empire.
It was Zion.
“sulfur… … !”
A little faster than Jordan, who recognized the hair color, opened his mouth, Kwaaaa!
All the monsters nearby started rushing toward Zion as if they had made a promise.
Did he instinctively feel that he could win this battle only by killing Shion?
“… … .”
As he looked at the wave of monsters rushing towards him like crazy, Sion tightly grasped the dragon blast spear in his hand.
Grung-
The howl of a dragon flowing from Agdevar.
At the same time, the frost spirit that appeared from Zion’s right shoulder immediately seeped into the dragon’s spear.
Agdvar accepted that power and began emitting blue light in all directions.
And the terrifying amplification that follows!
Gwaaaah!
The monsters, who instinctively sensed danger, let out urgent screams and increased their speed, but it was already too late.
Icefall.
A pure white wave bursting from Agdvar, where the amplification had reached its peak.
Such a wave spreads in all directions in an instant due to expansion, another power of the Dragon Explosion Spear, covering all the attacking monsters.
And at that moment,
Blah blah blah!
Everything was frozen.
Mana, atmosphere, monsters, etc.
Everything touched by the wave stops and the entire area begins to turn bright blue.
It’s literally like seeing the glacier realm where the Frost Queen, who ruled the entire ancient North, resides.
Jerk, jerk.
Shion looked at the frozen monsters trapped in the ice for a moment and slowly walked between them.
Crispy! Crispy!
Monsters that freeze and crumble into powder every time Zion passes by.
Kiiii… … .
At that sight, for the first time, fear began to appear in the eyes of other monsters who had only instinctive killing intent and appetite.
Still, is he a commander leading an army?
“Now! “Do not let a single person live, but destroy them!”
Yornan, who did not miss the monsters’ reaction, shouted loudly at the standing soldiers.
“Waaah!”
“Kill them all!”
Wow!
With that, a fierce battle begins again.
However, the atmosphere of the close match was much different than before.
The absence of the Poison Drake and Lord Goblin units, which were the main forces of the monsters.
And the joining of allies with overwhelming power and the consequent decline in the morale of the monsters.
The Goddess of Victory was already smiling perfectly to one side.
How long did the battle last?
thud!
Except for the monsters that escaped, the last remaining ogre finally collapsed with his heart pierced.
“I won… … .”
“I blocked it… … “I blocked it!”
Perhaps it was only then that they finally realized it, and for the first time, feelings of relief began to appear in the soldiers’ eyes.
It was a time when the soldiers, one by one, were about to sit down with their legs giving out.
“Be polite to everyone!”
Jordan’s voice rang loudly throughout the fortress.
Then, the soldiers straightened their posture again and their suspicious eyes caught the sight of Jordan approaching a man.
The man who turned the unfavorable situation of the war by slaughtering Poison Drake as soon as he appeared a moment ago and destroying the waves of oncoming monsters in one go.
“Greetings!”
Jordan, who came right in front of the man, bowed his head more politely than ever.
Dark gray hair and eyes of the same color.
And a languid yet alien atmosphere lingering throughout my body.
There was only one royal family member in the world with these characteristics.
“7th Legion Commander, Jordan Vatville, meets with His Royal Highness Prince Zion Agnes.”
And the next moment,
“Meet Her Royal Highness Princess Zion Agnes!”
Finally, everyone in the fortress who knows Zion’s identity begins to bow their heads and show respect.
Zion looked at those people with quiet eyes for a moment,
“I listen to the situation report right away.”
He lazily opened his mouth towards Jordan, who was bowing his head in front of him.
