Episode 356. Your name is
Just as when he first brought Ian and his party to Clifford, Noah ran without hesitation through the bushes.
I feel like I am faintly burning myself among the fresh earthy smell. It can’t be my imagination. I can see smoke rising from the border in the distance.
Are you planning to burn the blue sky? Gray dust seemed to be flying everywhere along with the flames.
Heehee!
Noah grabbed the reins and quickly slowed down. As we reached the cliff above the forest, we could clearly see the battlefield below.
Part of the wall had been torn down, and black Burgos soldiers were constantly coming through the hole. The source of that acrid smoke must be a border post.
“Prince.”
May checked it out with her telescope and called Noah. There were more of them than expected, and the problem was whether the barrier could be broken and continue to intrude.
The officer following the prince suggested.
“We understand there are two legions. They are about 5,000 strong, Your Majesty. They are advancing towards the palace, so we should cut off their rear. They will continue to send troops from the palace, so block both the front and the rear at the same time.”
“Then we have no choice but to watch the authors’ movements for a while and then decide when to go. There is a village not far away.”
“If you watch, you will only see the death of the village.”
“Look at the numbers. If we go into an all-out war, there will only be meaningless bleeding.”
“There is a bridge leading to the center in Baki. It is our priority to protect it, my prince.”
“Prince. “Decision.”
Noah thought for a moment and looked down. Because the distance was so far away, her movements looked like an ant.
If only I could trample them with my feet, I would do so immediately. The opposing side had 5,000 soldiers, and the advance party led by Noah had only 1,000. It was the moment when he was about to draw his sword.
“Wait a minute, Prince. Something is strange.”
May, who had been watching the border through a telescope, raised her hand.
There was already a collapsed part, so there was no problem with Burgos’s movement. However, explosions, vibrations, and flames were still occurring at other walls, which was strange.
Destroying everything for fraud? This is inefficient when there is not enough time to advance immediately. In addition, there were no troops clearing up the remains of the wall.
“The barriers keep exploding.”
“What is it? What happened?”
“ah…….”
May frowned, adjusting her focus.
I saw a strange creature climbing up the wall. It looked like a centipede the size of a person’s forearm, and the more it moved, the more it ignited and exploded on its own.
“It’s a monster… … .”
It is a low-level monster called Baekgak (百脚). It is mainly seen north of Burgos, and is not easily found in Clifford.
The white flames burst through the red barrier, burning it, and soon scattered, spilling out unknown pollutants.
“Burgos used the demon.”
“Prince. I heard that in places where white hornbeams live, the soil dries out and dies, so not a single weed grows. Burgos, these bastards seem to be planning to completely stop Cliffopod and kill him.”
“Prince! “Just give me the order right now!”
“Yes, I will go forward and backward and sweep away fiercely!”
Noah bit his lip.
What if those horrible white raccoons were to sneak across Clifford’s lands and lay eggs? Clifford’s future was as clear as day, regardless of whether or not he won this battle.
I will never be able to see you again. The beautifully ripening vineyards, the thick tree trunks, and the laughter of the people between them.
“But prince. You must think carefully. “They may have used White Horn not just to blow up the wall and damage Cliffopod’s land, but to keep us in the rear.”
At that moment, May added in a low voice.
That also makes sense. Burgos’s goal is to occupy the palace first and secure new recruits for the wizards, so their intention may be to keep the attention and power of the advance team behind them.
However, this is a trap that Noah cannot easily shake off.
“… There is power in the palace. We cut the cove and mend the barrier. Starting from Baki, the Burgos army will be split in half. Kill Baekgak so that he cannot pass over Baki and into the center.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“let’s go! “The first and second commanders will go beyond the forest on the left, and we will go under the cliff on the right.”
Heehee!
When Noah made his decision, everyone turned their horses with one accord. They knew the way to Baki before the Burgos legion.
This is the place where they were born and traveled throughout their lives, and furthermore, it is the land where their ancestors were also born, raised, and sleep. When it comes to geographical advantages, it goes without saying.
Noah and the soldiers ran down the steep road, holding their breath, and soon they saw smoke rising again in the distance.
Quaaaang! Quang!
“Clear the way! If you don’t clear the way, we’ll all die!”
“Hey, you guys, where is this place!”
“Eww! Eww!”
“Guards! Where are the guards!”
“Save me, save me!”
“These Burgos guys-!”
Choaack!
A small town that quickly became chaos.
Everywhere was engulfed in flames, crops were trampled and lost their noble appearance. The screams of children and adults permeated the air amidst the people running, falling, and rolling.
Some rushed in with picks and daggers, but they were defeated by the armored soldiers without even touching them.
“Prince, hurry up-”
“wait.”
Wait, wait, wait just a little longer. Noah muttered and watched her situation. If you attack right now, you might be able to save one or two lives. However, if you do it wrong, you could end up caught in the middle of the enemy army and suffer a crushing defeat.
Their goal is only one.
Cutting off the rear end precisely.
Knock knock!
The Burgos soldiers passed through the village, brandishing their blood-stained swords, and soon their number reached half.
When Noah raised his hand, his subordinate blew the buffalo horn vigorously to signal. The captains who had gone to the left ran out of the forest and attacked Burgos.
Cheaeng! visor!

“Kill them! They are those who covet our country!”
“Captain, these are Cliffopod soldiers!”
“I haven’t even crossed the bridge yet.”
“First Corps, continue to advance, Second Corps, confront. Forward! We continue to advance!”
The black Burgos soldier and the purple Cliffopod soldier became entangled and engaged in a scuffle. A place of chaos where there is no distinction between allies and enemies.
The people of Cliffopod crawled through the debris and prayed for their country’s victory, and Timothy, who was ahead, moved forward without wavering, as if he had expected this attack.
Burgos soldiers standing on the bridge opened the entrance to a huge cloth bag.
Saaak.
Dozens and hundreds of white hawks poured out. The raccoons that had taken over the bridge scurried about and fell into the river, and May confirmed it.
‘Are you trying to break the bridge?’
It was strange. Eliminating the retreat route is a clear burden for Burgos. Unless everyone is prepared to die, isn’t it natural to open a way to escape if the battle is lost? Collapsing the bridge is exactly what Clifford wants.
As Baekgak grew increasingly heated and spurred the explosion, Mei shouted.
“Prince!”
Chae-Ang!
Choaaaak!
Noah, who was running around the battlefield, cutting off the heads of Burgos soldiers with his own hands, turned his head at May’s call. His armor and sword were already covered in blood that no one knew who it belonged to.
“Burgos is trying to blow up the bridge!”
“what?”
Noah also immediately noticed that Burgos’s behavior was unusual. But at the same time, a loud noise erupted.
Kwaaaaang! Boom! Boom!
The blast caused the bridge to collapse, sending rocks and dirt tumbling down from the surrounding forest.
Noah swung his sword mechanically, looking at the back of the Burgos army advancing closer to the royal palace.
“The authors… … .”
“Keuuk!”
Sigh!
Choaack!
It would not be their intention to throw all that much power into the abyss of death.
If that was the case, then even if we retreated, it meant that we wouldn’t go back the way we came. In fact, this wasn’t the only border area that was in contact with Burgos… … .
“Kill them! Kill them all!”
The prince shouted, swinging his sword madly. He couldn’t read their intentions, so he was worried that he might have made a wrong choice. He had no choice but to hurry up and clear this place, and confront them head-on from another forest path instead of the bridge.
At that time, five Burgos soldiers, who realized that Noah was the commander, rushed towards the horse and plunged their swords at the same time.
Heehee!
A horse that falls forward while struggling in pain. Noah also fell off his horse and rolled on the ground, and May was startled and ran towards him to escort the prince.
“Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Prince!”
“Your Majesty-!”
“shit!”
Chooah! Chooah!
Chae-Ang!
Blades flew from all directions.
A feeling of tension that feels like it will take your breath away if you lose concentration even a little. Noah almost reflexively parried the attack, let it go, and rolled again. May tried to pull him up onto the horse, but it wasn’t easy.
Noah walks through the battlefield covered in unknown blood. Then suddenly. She paused at the strange feeling that wrapped around her ankle.
Saaak.
It’s Baekgak. It’s something that crawled out from the rubble of the collapsed bridge and seeped into the cracks of the battlefield.
The moment when light was about to enter the monster’s pale stomach. Noah stabbed his sword. The hot and foul liquid dulled the tip of the sword.
‘Having a hundred horns means-‘
Kwaaang! Boom!
As Noah guessed that explosions would occur here and there, the heavens and the earth shook.
Corpses were torn to pieces and flew up, the living burst with death, and those who fell, howling in pain, came one after another, including Burgos and Clifford.
“Prince! please!”
May tried to push through the crowd to reach Noah, but she couldn’t. Noah shouted at May.
“Focus only on cutting down the enemy!”
“The white hawks keep coming! Take refuge in the forest!”
“Yes! Prince! It would be better to go and take down the Burgos that is coming up!”
“May! Hey, kid!”
“but-!”
Chae-Ang!
White Horn did not discriminate between Burgos and Cliffopod. Enemies who want to survive will also try to climb into the forest, so it is advantageous to occupy a position in advance and defeat the enemies.
May, who was trying to approach Noah, turned to follow the prince’s fingertips.
“hurry!”
Knock knock!
Noah ran through the enemy forces, and May climbed into the forest, holding a child who looked to be about three or four years old in her left hand.
Those on horseback escaped relatively easily, but Noah still could not escape the middle of the battlefield. After May dropped off her child, it was the moment when she was about to jump into her father’s shoes again.
Saaak.
The entire floor of Baki Village slowly glowed. The White Horns, who didn’t even know they were in chaos, are trying to ignite again.
A fallen corpse and faint warmth seeping through the cracks of the building. Not only Noah, but even the Burgos soldiers were embarrassed and all stopped.
“When did this happen… … .”
“Prince!”
“May, no! It will explode soon!”
Noah ran, stepping on the corpses as hard as he could. In the meantime, he cut down those who attacked him, and his heart began to pound as the heat gradually rose.
‘ah.’
Quaaaang!
Phew! Boom!
A white horn that explodes like a chain reaction.
A storm came with a tremendous roar, and flames swept across the area. Captains Clifford, including May, were momentarily unable to open their eyes and covered their faces.
May was the first to come to her senses and look around.
“Wow, prince?”
The skin of those who had fallen was melting, making it impossible to tell who was who. Distinguished solely by their clothing, they struck down the climbing Burgos soldiers with their swords and knocked them down with their feet.
In the meantime, May tried to find traces of the prince with her eyes. However, she couldn’t see them.
“may! Wake! “The prince is over there!”
Choaack!
Until one captain pointed his head into the air.
Noah was floating in the sky holding someone’s hand. A wizard who is closest to the power of God and is said to be sacred.
“under… … .”
Noah looked down at the ruined village from his feet and then looked up at the wizard.
“I went out to scout, but I almost got into big trouble.”
“Did Sir Ian send you?”
“Yeah yeah. Well, that’s kind of it.”
“What is your name?”
The wizard looked around at the broken bridge, the white crane, and the miserable village and answered. Those madmen, what on earth did they bring in, including that strange creature from before?
“You don’t need to know the name of a guy like me. I’m your man, so it’s like you saved me.”
