Chapter 22. Calmly move forward one step at a time. (12)
[Thank you for your grace. I hope you come back safely.]
The brooch included in the letter, written in Melina’s curly font, was also included.
In the shape of a wolf embossed in silver.
It was a result that contrasted with the original where Cain gave Melina a necklace as a gift.
‘It looks like a real living wolf.’
It was a work of exceptionally high quality, with each hair individually engraved.
Above all, the wolf’s eyes had brooches the same color as mine.
That made this brooch an even more special and eye-catching product.
“It’s the same as the Kindreal family symbol….”
Conrad recognized the brooch and groaned softly.
“Wolves hunt with a pack.”
As he tapped the brooch and said a word, admiration appeared in the eyes of the members.
First, calling myself a wolf meant that I would act as a member of the Kindreal family.
Second, it meant that he would move with the members like a wolf’s habits. Unlike the other successors who just point behind the scenes.
Lastly, the word ‘hunting’ is used to refer to those vicious monsters.
“Abel Kindreal!”
“Ovest! Ovest!”
In this situation, where even a decent man would feel fear, my confident remarks brought cheers from the members.
“Is everyone ready?”
“Please order.”
Even Conrad’s tone became more polite. All the members stared at me, their swords tightly gripped.
“From Hayden to Klaus, split into two and spread out on both sides.”
When I pointed straight with my finger, the members moved quickly.
“Follow me behind Roland. Conrad, stand next to me. The two of us will take the center.”
Surprise appeared in the eyes of the knights who were following orders.
“This…….”
It was a formation that they were familiar with and frequently used in the Obest Territory due to its strong breakthrough ability.
Conrad and I took the lead, and the rest of the crew spread out to the sides, creating a wedge-shaped shape.
“The goal is annihilation. Everything that stands in our way.”
The members nodded at the firm command given while holding their swords tightly.
“I take orders.”
The surprise disappeared from their faces and only seriousness appeared.
As they raised their arms without saying a word, the members maintained their formation and began to run forward.
It was an amazing movement, as if all the knights had become one body.
“Kikigeek?!”
“Kick!”
The Cynus who discovered us were startled. They realized that our momentum was unusual and began to rush in.
“Kikigigeek!”
“Kiik!”
The moment when the gazes of the person trying to block and the person trying to break through collide in the air,
Transparent angle!
My sword pierced the bodies of the four Cynus blocking my path. Thick blood flowed down the back of the hand holding the sword.
Excited.
The moment I smelled the thick scent of blood, my heart beat loudly, as if having a seizure. Biting her lip, she powerfully swung her sword to the side.
Sigh!
The pinned kinus flew off one after another and rolled around on the floor.
“quite!”
Conrad looked back at me and expressed admiration. He had also just cut down two Cynus.
Likewise, other members also cut or stabbed Kinus to death. Cynus’ body appeared in the formation we were standing in.
“It goes on like this.”
Conrad and the members nodded without hesitation at my command.
Crash!
A huge spear called the Knights of Ovest moved. Where the window passes through,
“Keeeeek!”
“Kiruk!”
It was filled with only the Cynus’ screams of pain. After that, only corpses with holes in their chests were left behind.
It was a situation that was all too familiar to the Ovest Knights.
The only difference is that I am positioned at the front of this window and have become sharper and fiercer.
The Ovest Knights pierced the battlefield in a straight line and advanced upward.
“Ugh, damn it!”
I passed by a knight whose life was in danger.
Push!
Covered in Cynus’ hot blood, he looked dumbfounded.
“Uh, uh….”
He stared blankly at the back of the Ovest Knights passing by like a gust of wind.
“Don’t give me a chance!”
“Stop it!”

I passed by other knights fighting hard. While blowing away all the Cynus rushing towards them.
“her…….”
“That’s the Ovest Knights….”
Other people’s admiring glances followed our backs.
“Kikikikik!”
I passed by the Cynus who were clinging to the food cart.
Sigh! Suddenly!
“Kiruk….”
“Kick!”
The bodies of the Cynus collapsed next to the cart. A puddle of blood began to spread across the ground.
“after.”
I secretly sighed.
The smell of blood that filled the battlefield was so irritating to me. The screams of Cynus dying, writhing in pain, rang in my ears.
Excited, Excited.
It felt like if I relaxed even a little, the suppressed desire would burst through the cracks.
The desire to explode a living, breathing heart right next to you, rather than the insignificant prey in front of you.
‘… … no.’
It really is a terrible madness.
If I just closed my eyes and let myself go, everything would be easier, but because I didn’t, the pain I was experiencing became twice as strong.
Fortunately, Requiem was still quiet. It was because the life force he received from Saint Rachel had put him to sleep.
‘This won’t last long either.’
This was something I had been prepared to do since I first proposed a subjugation war in the North.
It has been peaceful so far, but things will be different in the future. Because blood splattering and flesh being torn apart every day will stimulate mania.
‘Let’s finish it as quickly as possible.’
I decided to do that and kept repeating it to myself over and over again.
Even though my heart is hot, my head is cold. Cool and clear.
“Where is your goal?”
Conrad, who was running at a fast pace, asked.
“topside.”
I saw it with my eyes.
Two pairs of eyes are standing in the crevice of the rock above, watching the battle unfold below.
A powerful body and deep, deep vitality that are on a different level from other Kinus.
“Kiiik!”
“Kirrrrrrr!”
We headed upward, thoroughly destroying the thick fence of the Cynus. At one point, when the formation of the Kinus was being destroyed like that, Kuwoaa!
A ferocious roar, quite different from before, echoed throughout the mountain. Everyone’s eyes, humans and monsters, turned upward.
“Cruk, ruk!”
An entity that appeared to be twice as large as the Cynus we had faced so far appeared.
It was as big as an adult man, and the thick fur that covered its entire body like armor was impressive.
Pabababak!
The guy started running with all his might using both hands and both feet. He entered the war to turn the unfavorable war situation around.
“Krrrrr!”
Its pale yellow eyes were aimed at the Ovest Knights. It seemed like he knew exactly what was causing this situation.
“He’s their leader!”
Conrad cut down the guy he was fighting just now and quickly approached me.
“Let’s get in line and all at once-”
“There’s no need for that.”
As he went ahead of Conrad, he left a comment.
“young master?”
Leaving behind his questioning face,
“young master?”
“Wait a minute, if you go alone-”
Leaving the embarrassment of other members behind,
Crash!
My body kicked off the ground and shot forward. He held his sword close to his body and rushed towards the leader, Kinus.
“young master!”
“It’s dangerous!”
Konrad and the other members screamed as they saw me rushing towards the giant Cynus alone.
“Prince Abel!”
“Abel!”
Mikel and Derek’s voices were heard from far away.
Next moment,
Crack!
My sword pierced through the belly of Chief Cynus.
Sigh!
Since the running speed was applied to the sword, the sword did not stop there and ran through the monster’s back.
“…….”
Chief Kinus looked down blankly, unable to recognize what had happened in an instant.
After checking the sword that pierced my stomach,
“Krrrr-”
A long scream, almost like crying, came out. The moment his fist was raised upward,
Jump!
I applied force and lowered my sword. With the clear sound of the sword striking the ground,
Cheolpuk, pukpuk.
The organs inside his body spilled out onto the floor.
“Kruk…….”
Leader Cynus’s eyes rolled upward. He fell to his knees and the body, split in half, slowly fell backwards.
thud-
His body scattered to the floor with a heavy sound.
In this way, leader Cynus died without causing even a single casualty. He appeared noisily in less than a few seconds.
At the same time, everyone on the battlefield temporarily stopped.
“Oh my god.”
“Did you kill that thing by yourself?”
A murmur spread among the knights,
“Key, key….”
“Kirrr?”
The remaining Cynus were visibly shaken after losing their leader.
“Key, key!”
“Kiruk, kiruk!”
They looked at each other and communicated something. Looking at the faces mixed with anxiety and urgency, it seemed like they were discussing retreat.
“I think you’re trying to run away?”
“Phew, I survived.”
The knights breathed a sigh of relief as they saw the Kinus slowly retreating.
Everyone was very tired from the sudden battle. I lost my energy trying to adapt to the strong snowstorm and unfamiliar terrain.
“Maintenance like this….”
“Take care of the wounded!”
The moment everyone was shouting that and trying to clear things up,
Sigh!
My sword pierced the chest of another Cynus.
dump.
Its body collapsed, and drops of blood splattered onto the white snow field.
“Did you forget?”
Sabak.
I opened my mouth as I stepped on the wet snow.
“The goal was annihilation.”
A calm but cool voice clawed at the surrounding air like a knife.
“Don’t make a fuss.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the expressions of the Knights of Ovest changed.
They were the ones who experienced first-hand how vicious the monsters they missed came back and how cruel their descendants became.
“Yes, master!”
They adjusted their swords and dispersed to chase the fleeing Cynus.
“Kirrrrrrr!”
“Keeeeek!”
It was easier to cut down monsters that showed their backs.
The Obest Knights did not hesitate to kill those who lost their will to fight. Blood splattered and flesh spilled wherever they passed.
His appearance was extremely brave, but at the same time cold, and in some ways solemn.
Wolves that follow their master’s orders and bite the enemy in front of them without hesitation.
As they stirred around the battlefield, the fleeing Cynus rapidly lost their numbers.
“That’s… the Ovest Knights.”
“It was only told in legend….”
The other knights just looked at him blankly. Their eyes turned to the Nord Knights who joined in not to be outdone.
“Don’t let anyone live!”
“Drive upward!”
The Nord Knights, led by Mikel, cleverly attacked the Cynus from below.
“Key, key!”
“Kirrr!”
They wandered around without knowing where to go.
Above, the blades of the Ovest Knights were already dancing, and below, the sharp swords of the Nord Knights were aimed.
Cutting down those Cynus was nothing more than striking down the hammer of judgment.
“Well, why are you just staring blankly!”
“Go ahead and cut them down!”
Belatedly, other knights came to their senses and joined. Such cruel drops of blood colored the snowy mountain.
I was leisurely standing back, looking at the scene. Because there were no stupid monsters that attacked me after killing the leader Kinus.
Then, suddenly, a sudden chill hit me.
‘… … what?’
It wasn’t because I wanted to live. My body was really feeling cold.
At the same time,
Growling.
A loud sound rose from my stomach. Requiem began sniffing and writhing.
‘Oh, no way.’
A belated realization came to me as to why I could move so actively without feeling the cold at all.
I thought it was just because I was resistant to the cold. In fact, Requiem was draining my vitality and keeping my body in top condition.
‘That means… … .’
It also meant that something had to be put into Requiem’s stomach.
‘Ah, Sval.’
Hearing the very familiar growling sound, I furrowed my eyebrows.
