Lord Asreil suddenly laughed.
“I’m scared too.”
Smiling, he gestured toward Shin Seong-gun with his chin.
“Their armor is thicker than ours, and their numbers are far greater than ours. “I’m sure their combat experience is much higher than ours!”
The cavalrymen looked puzzled. Why does the commander say he is losing strength right before battle?
“But that thick armor is not stronger than ours!”
Asreil lifted his cloak. Armor identical to light cavalry was revealed.
“Believe! “Your armor is nothing compared to theirs, which are needlessly heavy!”
Asreil gave his adjutant a glance. The adjutant prepared his crossbow and then fired at Asreil. It was a moment when the soldiers were shocked.
Teeing!
Surprisingly, the crossbow arrow did not pierce Asreil’s leather and chain chest armor and bounced off!
Asreil proudly raised his fist.
“Human hands could never make armor like this! “We are just as strong as them, and we are several times lighter and faster than them!”
The light armor they were currently wearing was not normal armor. It was a new type of armor produced by mobilizing all the technological capabilities of the Orcs and Dwarves.
The orc’s leather armor is extremely tough and cannot be easily pierced by even a strong bow. However, since it is made of leather, it is bound to be vulnerable to cutting attacks.
The strength of dwarf chain armor is incomparable to that of humans, and even the most famous swords cannot cut it. However, since it is a chain, it is bound to be vulnerable to stabbing.
The two races came together, and the dwarf blacksmith and the orc weapon father exchanged skills with each other. Craftsmanship transcends even race, and masters of both races willingly joined hands in front of new technology.
So what came out was this new type of light armor that was light and strong, but had no restrictions on movement.
The cavalrymen’s complexions brightened at Asreil’s protest.
The skills of the Holy Army and Antares cavalry are clearly different.
However, there is no significant difference between the words of the Holy Army and the Antares cavalry.
So, wouldn’t the lighter one have superior mobility?
The soldiers’ fear gradually subsided.
“After all, Antares is an emerging country! “I don’t say anything about sacrificing one’s life in loyalty to a country that is only a few years old!”
For a commander about to go into battle, this is quite a unique speech. A person who eats away the rust of a nation can tell you not to be loyal?
At that time, Asreil raised his sword and pointed at the Holy Army.
“You all have families and friends, right? “If we are defeated by those guys, then all of our relatives and family will die!”
The fighting spirit began to bloom on the soldiers’ faces.
“Do you understand? Those guys are Sayre fanatics! They don’t even see us as the same human being! According to Sayre’s law, it is not a crime at all to kill and rape heretics! Remember! “They definitely will!”
Because it is an emerging country, not everyone has much pride or pride in their country.
However, feelings toward family, relatives, and loved ones are the same regardless of country.
The fear completely disappeared from the soldiers’ faces. Asleil drew his sword and held it high.
“Would you let your family go through something like that?”
The cavalry responded in unison.
“Absolutely not!”
“I will kill them all!”
“Antares!”
“For Antares!”

Meanwhile, the Orc fighter Hadathum was watching Asreil’s speech with impressed eyes.
“Oh, f*ck, you have form.”
Orcs also have a tradition of giving a speech before battle. In particular, Warchief Kalken was said to be the most talkative among the Orcs, and it was said that hearing his speech would make even the most cowardly Orc run wild like a berserker.
Although he was the chief of the clan, Hadatum was not very talkative, which was something he was always envious of.
“Eh, should I try something like that too… … ?”
He sauntered over to the orc warriors while brushing his buck teeth. I also wanted to make a speech that was as stylish as Asrail and be cheered.
They clenched their fists and started yelling.
“Great Orc warriors!”
The orc warriors all looked at him. Ha Datus rolled his head.
‘Well, first of all, I caught your eye… … .’
It seems like you don’t do things carelessly if you haven’t done it before. When I tried to say something, nothing came to mind. In fact, the Orc warriors also said, ‘Hey man, did I eat something wrong? They were looking at me like, ‘Why are you acting like that all of a sudden?’
“Wow sir… … .”
Wow, I can’t think of anything else to say.
In the end, we gave up arguing and went on as we were doing.
“f*ck, why are you fighting? “Just fighting!”
Then, he suddenly pulls out his favorite weapon and lets out a warrior’s roar.
“Kaaaa! let’s go! “It’s a blood festival!”
“Wow!”
The orcs cried out in unison, holding their swords.
In fact, Hadathum himself did not know it, but his exciting ‘three-word speech’ was receiving as much response from the orcs as Warchief Kalken. What a simple yet heart-wrenching cry!
Asreil threw his hand down.
“All forces charge!”
With a loud roar, the Sichuan cavalry all poured down the plateau.
3
The Antares Army of Sacheon launched a frontal assault, and against them, the Holy Army put heavily armored knights at the forefront. Grime, Halein, and the traditional knights renowned in the Teikan Kingdom charged towards each other with their grand spears.
Lance charging was the flower of chivalrous combat.
“I will show those foolish heretics an example!”
Sir Geppold, the knight of Grime, stood at the forefront and clashed with Lord Arthreil with an excited shout. The moment they pass each other while charging with their lances!
“Gagging!”

Surprisingly, the experienced Sir Zeppold was defeated by the still young Asreil.
That wasn’t all.
Almost all of the Knights of Antares had the upper hand in lance charging!
Duke Iranad, who was watching, opened his eyes wide in surprise.
“what? “How can you feel so stable with such light armor?”
The light armor of the Knights of Antares is clearly a product that boasts as much strength as the heavy armor of the Holy Army. However, it is still unmistakably light armored and inferior in weight. If they collide at the same time, it makes sense for the heavier one to win, so why?
As they passed by the Knights of the Holy Army who all fell off their horses, even the Knights of Antares looked dumbfounded at how easy it was.
“uh? “What’s going on?”
“Is this worth doing?”
“It’s light!”
“what? “I just had a high name, but it wasn’t that big of a deal, right?”
Like other knights, the Knights of Antares also practiced diligently. In particular, I practiced lance charging, the flower of chivalry, diligently.
… … With the Orc Wolf Riders.
In the first place, the Orc Riders are of different weight classes and different strength, and it is difficult to handle even one of ten people when they come together in earnest. It was difficult for the Knights of Antares, who were relatively inferior in weight and strength, to successfully charge their lances against the Orc Riders with average skill.
A charge that is so accurate and powerful that it can throw the opponent off balance with a single blow, piercing through the eye of a needle.
A stable posture that is stable enough to handle weight differences of several times.
Sharp eyesight and judgment that allow you to accurately target loopholes within a few seconds.
Only when all of these are in place can you successfully lance charge Wolf Rider. If the hitting point is even slightly off or the timing of the lance thrust is off, the Wolf Rider will immediately regain its balance and never fall.
It was a very harsh performance environment.
Those were the days when I only had to deal with monsters.
After only dealing with monsters, meeting fellow humans feels like dealing with a knight-in-training.
Ta-ta-ta-tang!
Once again, a group of knights clashed with the Knights of Antares.
Once again, the Knights of the Holy Army collided with the lances and fell from their horses.
Duke Iranad clicked his tongue at the momentum of the Knights of Antares, which was literally penetrating the Holy Army camp with such force. It was a lance charging that was so thoroughly faithful to the basics that even the eyes of an Auror user would be impressed. There was no way that the knights of the Holy Army, who believed in heavy armor, could be an opponent.
“No, those guys only practiced that after eating…? … .”
Duke Iranad muttered with half-admiration and half-frustration.
However, Duke Iranad unintentionally got to the point.
Breaking through twice, the Knights of Antares quickly reached the main base of the Holy Army. The Knights of the Holy Army, who were waiting for the Knights of Antares to slow down and retreat, jumped out and formed a siege.
No matter how strong the breakthrough was, there were too many opposing forces. The Antares knights began to engage in a melee, mixing with the knights of the Holy Army who had rushed out.
“Ugh!”
“Damn, you’re strong as expected!”
Once the melee broke out, the Knights of Antares, who were experts at lance charging, were not able to overcome the Holy Army in sword fighting. A tense battle took place on all sides. There were quite a few people who were pushed back.
Asrail looked at the situation with a sad expression.
‘Wow, is the other side still poor compared to lance charging? Well, just performing lance charging was too much for a whole day… … .’
… … Indeed, the Knights of Antares only practiced lance charging.
Everything in this world has pros and cons. Conversely, the harsh performance environment also means that it is difficult to do anything properly.
First of all, you have to have the upper hand even when it comes to lance charging before you can engage in sword fighting or learn spear skills, right? The Knights of Antares, who were dealing with the Wolf Riders, did not have enough time to develop skills other than lance charging.
Even the Knights of the Holy Army, who were astonished by the artistic lance charging of the Knights of Antares, were once again amazed after seeing their opponents’ swordsmanship skills. He began to fight back, brandishing his weapon bravely.
“What, these guys? “It’s no big deal because you stop!”
“I’ll cut it all up!”
The Knights of Antares, who seemed braver than anyone else on the continent when charging, once they arrived at the enemy camp, they became ordinary knights and struggled under swords from all directions.
Of course, Carol anticipated this and formed a unit. With good timing, the light cavalry followed behind the knights.
“let’s go! “Help the drivers!”
Unlike the Knights of Antares, this light cavalry unit is made up entirely of mercenaries, swordsmen in training, or nomadic warriors who surrendered in Fetland. Although they are not skilled at charging with a spear, they are much more skilled than the Knights of Antares when it comes to swordsmanship on horseback.
Snap clap clap!
The sound of swords clashing echoed loudly throughout the battlefield. In the meantime, the Knights of Antares broke away from the enemy camp. The knights of the Shinseong Army chased after them eagerly, but the weight of the armor they wore in the first place was too different. No matter how much you run, the distance gets bigger and bigger.
The Knights of Antares, who had widened the distance again, made a sharp turn and began charging down the road.
Once the distance increases, you can use lance charging again!
“Wow!”
“Aaaah!”
Dozens of knights of the Holy Army who were chasing the knights of Antares, who were experts at lance charging, lost their lives in the great spear charge. Blood flowers bloomed everywhere and the scent of blood rose thickly.
As they passed by and defeated their enemies, the Antares knights looked enlightened.
“Okay, so that’s why they wore light armor.”
