Chapter 32. Standing on a plain where ice and fire come together. (3)
“Don’t stop, run!”
“Don’t slow down!”
The leaders of each knighthood shouted at the top of their voices.
Popping-
The rebel army gritted its teeth as it looked at the arrows filling the sky with pitch black.
Because of the speed at which it was running, it was impossible to turn or back away. All I could do was prepare for her death and rush forward.
Next moment,
Bub bub bub!
Dozens and hundreds of arrows rained down like raindrops of death.
“Aaaah!”
“Oops!”
Someone had their head pierced by an arrow and fell backwards, while someone else was hit in the shoulder and fell to the floor, unable to get up.
Because it was running at full speed, the recoil was also enormous.
“Ugh!”
“Shit!”
The damage suffered by those who blocked it with their shields was also significant. An arrow even pierced the shield and grazed the arm.
“Keep running!”
“Just go a little further!”
The commanders raised their voices and encouraged the soldiers. Their fingers pointed ahead.
“Go to Cain’s flame!”
“We are moving according to plan!”
When ordinary people are fighting their own battles.
Sigh-
Ekarot flew into the air above the eastern gate. He wore dazzlingly gorgeous pure white robes.
It was an expensive item made entirely of Kariot white fabric, a gift from Abel to commemorate becoming the lord of the Magic Tower.
Ekarot chose today as the day to wear it for the first time. Because he was confident that he would not soil this robe.
“You should wear it on a day like today.”
He smiled mischievously and looked at the battlefield.
I deliberately did not bring other wizards.
This is because the image of wizards may become entrenched. I was reluctant to mobilize them for something like this.
After this war is over, wizards will never harm humans again.
“Siena… … .”
Ekarot stared at the only spot on the battlefield where mana was fluttering.
Sienna was also staring at Ekarot. She smiled defiantly, as if telling her to come and see as much as she wanted.
“Yes, I guess so.”
Ekarot raised both hands. And he activated the magic circle he had prepared in advance.
Grumbling-
Parts of the sky began to turn black. The moment it became a swirling dark cloud,
Flash!
A huge bolt of lightning ran vertically toward the ground. To be exact, towards the siege weapons all over the battlefield.
bang!
Lightning and siege weapons clashed.
“Ahh!”
“Ahh!”
Even the surrounding soldiers were swept away by the thunderbolt of enormous thickness. Charred corpses appeared one after another.
The problem is that Ekarot’s intended target was actually fine.
“Push harder!”
“Just go a little further!”
“The wizard protects us!”
The siege engines and the humans moving them did not stop moving forward. An azure-blue mana shield waved above them.
“… … under.”
Ekarot read Sienna’s traces and laughed.
“I knew so.”
The opposing army also prepared for the wizard’s attack.
However, since you cannot defend the entire army, focus on siege weapons that are sure to be targeted first.
“hmm.”
Ekarot waved his hand with a sour expression on his face.
Damn it!
There was a sound of the sky splitting and several thunderbolts struck.
Yep!
This time, Sienna’s shield defended against Ekarot’s attack.
Ekarot stroked his chin.
“Is this an absorption technique again?”
After having fun with Midnell, Sienna seemed to have prepared for the final battle with Ekarot.
Certainly, that type of magic was tricky to dispel. Moreover, if the target is moving at high speed.
“Well, that’s not the only way.”
Ekarot chuckled and moved his arms in a complex manner. And stretched out in front of him.

Faaah! Pot!
A golden circle of mana appeared from his fingertips and fell on the ground. It gradually expanded in diameter and spread out toward the battlefield.
“W-what!”
“Everyone be careful!”
The soldiers closed their eyes tightly and prepared for what was to come. But the golden mana had no effect on them.
“what? “What happened?”
“Nothing’s going on?”
As Siena’s shield had previously blocked the lightning strike, the rebel army was highly encouraged.
“As expected, our wizard is the best!”
“Everyone keep running!”
They continued to cheer and ran straight ahead. Toward Cain, who was waiting for him standing on a plain lit by fire.
“… … no way.”
Then, suddenly, Cain stiffened his mouth,
“… … Now, wait a minute.”
The moment Sienna muttered anxiously,
Phew!
One of the battering rams, which was running with great momentum, plummeted to the ground.
“Ugh! what’s this!”
“Ta, land!”
“It’s a trap!”
The ground gradually sank downward, sucking in the battering ram like a swamp. Even the people who pushed it.
“Afufu, afufu!”
“Save people!”
The people trapped there struggled with all their might, but it was not enough to escape.
Rattling! Plop!
Similar things were happening all over the battlefield.
“Ugh! “It’s a trap!”
“Damn it, I can’t get out!”
The ground caved in here and there, swallowing up the siege weapons that the rebels had ambitiously prepared.
It was a magic designed to lock only heavy objects over a certain weight.
Even the mana shield was useless when buried in the ground. This was because it only absorbed magical damage inflicted on siege weapons.
“Ekarot, that bastard!”
Sienna gritted her teeth and stepped forward. I never thought the defensive magic I prepared with so much effort would be responded to in this way.
“Everyone, please wait a moment!”
Sienna began flying toward siege engines everywhere. The intention was to lift the soil itself with mana.
On the other hand,
“Oh oh! amazing!”
“It’s awesome!”
The top of the castle wall was a crucible of cheers. The archers raised their bows and shouted.
“Ekarot! Ekarot!”
“New magic tower lord!”
The existence of siege weapons is extremely threatening from a defensive position. Ekarot, who neutralized them so easily, deserved to shine even brighter.
“joy.”
Ekarot looked away, pretending not to hear. Even if he pretended not to, he was listening to the sounds on the castle walls.
“-!”
His eyes captured several places on the battlefield.
Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
The catapults that were lucky enough to avoid the trap on the floor were rushing forward.
“Hold on just a little longer!”
“Aaaah!”
After everyone pushed the catapult at the risk of death, they reached a distance that would send the boulder flying.
“Hurry!”
“quickly!”
Everyone began to hang rocks on the hook with skillful hands.
“Tsk.”
Ekarot clicked his tongue and put his hands together. And soon after,
“Now, pull!”
“Goes!”
The rebels sent the rocks flying.
Shuuuung!
Huge rocks flew into the castle wall with a threatening sound.
but,
Whoops!
The golden mana shield did not allow the rock’s attack.
thud!
The rock fell straight down and hit the ground.
“also!”
“Good!”
The archers stopped for a moment and watched the scene.
This omni-directional shield defends against external attacks, but has the disadvantage of not being able to attack internally.
“This is why I tried to get rid of them all before then.”
Ekarot looked at the surviving siege engines with disapproval.
“-!”
Suddenly his eyes widened.
Rather than giving up, the soldiers clinging to the catapult began to move faster.
“Ugh!”
“Hmph!”
They used long sticks to collect burning grass from the floor. Then he started putting it into a ring along with a ball-shaped straw.
“no way?!”
The moment Ekarot made a mistake,
Shuung! Shuung!
The straw thrown by the catapult rushed towards the castle wall.
“It’s no use!”
“Give up!”
The moment the soldiers on the castle wall shouted loudly,
Crispy! Crispy!
The mana shield cracked, betraying their expectations. Burning straw fell between them.
“Kaaaaak!”
“Get out of the way, everyone get out of the way!”
People who were hit by straws ran wild in all directions. In an instant, several people’s bodies caught fire.
“oh my god. “Hey, what is that?”
“Everyone avoid it!”
People retreated in a hurry.
“help me! “Please save me!”
“It’s hot! “It’s hot!”
There was nothing to see from the humans who were on fire. All I could do was twist my body in pain and hold on to everything I could reach.
Because they were crowded into the already narrow walls, the damage was severe. In an instant, one squad of archers was annihilated.
What was even more terrifying was that the fire would not go out in the meantime.
The flame of the cadenza burned and burned as it poured everything into its mouth.
“S-you’re crazy… … .”
“This is the power of the cadenza… … .”
“Sword of the Four Seasons… … .”
The surviving soldiers shuddered as they saw the flames still burning. Fear crept across their faces.
“… … shit.”
Ekarot frowned.
I didn’t know that the mana shield would be pierced in one hit. Cadenza’s flame had the destructive power to burn even mana.
“It works!”
“Hurry!”
The surviving catapults gained even more speed. Bales of straw filled with cadenza flames prepared to fly from all over the place.
The faces of the capital allied forces darkened when they saw that scene.
“Make the shield layer upon layer thick… … No, I changed the design of the shield… … .”
Ekarot muttered, clenching his fists. Several calculations were going through his mind in an instant.
It was then.
“Everyone, step back.”
Trudging.
Leah stepped forward with heavy footsteps.
“Because it’s dangerous if you touch it.”
Charring-
The pair of Arya began to cry. It feels and resonates with the owner’s will.
“after.”
Leah held Aria so that they were crossing each other.
Let’s go!
Then he started running sideways, scratching the top of the castle wall. Aria’s cold swirled like a storm and enveloped the castle walls.
Passasasat!
A thick, transparent wall of ice rose above the castle wall.
The way Leah wrote the aria was bold yet delicate. The part where the archers lean forward to shoot their arrows was exquisitely left.
“—!”
The Allied forces on the castle wall just watched the scene with their mouths open in silence.
Next moment,
Shuuuung! Shuung!
Bales of straw filled with the cadenza’s flame flew into the castle walls.
“Ugh! damage!”
“Everyone bow your heads!”
While the soldiers were horrified and raised their hands,
Pubbung! Pow!
The straw balls collided with Aria’s ice wall.
Soooo-
At the same time, a hazy vapor spewed out, obscuring the view.
After a little silence,
“… … what?”
“… … “I lived?”
The soldiers widened their eyes in surprise.
And although it was dented here and there, I came across an ice wall that still stood strong.
“… … Wow.”
Starting with someone’s sincere admiration,
“Waaah!”
“As expected, General Commander!”
“Lea Concellare! Lea concellare!”
“aria! aria!”
A huge roar erupted as if the walls of the castle were collapsing. People raised their hands and chanted Leah’s name.
“Whoa.”
Leia stepped down the castle wall, wiping her forehead.
He concentrated all his attention on using Aria’s power while running on the narrow castle wall.
“This is just a temporary solution!”
Leah did not stop there and scolded people.
“Don’t relax!”
He captured the atmosphere with his strict and firm voice.
“There are still many enemies left!”
“yes! All right!”
“I follow your orders!”
The soldiers raised their hands and gave a mock salute. I gathered my senses and began preparing for the next battle.
Crack, crack.
The cadenza’s flame, which had been transferred to the castle walls, was still burning. Emitting the foul smell of burning flesh.
fault.
Leah ran as if she was flying and landed there.
“… … .”
Leah briefly looked at the faces of those who had died. Among them, there were some who could not even close their eyes.
How many more victims will we have to see in the future?
For a moment I was lost in thought,
chuck-
Leah stretched out Aria and placed it on top of her.
Passat- Passasat-
The cold spreads out and surrounds the flame,
Shoot ah-
It finally extinguished itself, emitting white vapor.
The dead could no longer burn.
“… … .”
Leah did not leave any promises to the body. But the determination in her eyes made up for it.
“… … egg plant.”
Leah turned and looked outside the walls.
“damage!”
“Everyone get back!”
The soldiers who had used the catapult were running away in haste.
Kugugu- Boom!
The catapult, which was burning brightly, eventually lost its shape and collapsed. This was because the cadenza’s flame did not distinguish between friends.
“… … “It was done this way.”
Leah muttered, chewing her lips.
It was a moment when I realized how Cain had achieved consecutive victories in territory battles.
It wouldn’t matter even if all the catapults were used up. Once the burning straw passes over the castle wall, it will not be extinguished until everyone is burned to death.
