Episode 104. The path of the prosecutor
After recovering, Kaipa led his knights to the training hall of Strange Castle.
“From this time onwards, Kaipa de Strange swears under heaven that he will be loyal to the master of the family, Lord Verdin, with his life without a single lie.”
Under his oath, the knights simultaneously knelt down on one knee and recited.
“I swear allegiance to the matriarch!”
thud. Coogugung.
I took their oath under the cross-sword banner, the symbol of my family.
This is part of the process of erasing my father’s traces along with the creation of a new knighthood that follows me.
Guardian Knight Commander Beth brought a sword with a ‘black hawk’ drawn on it and placed it on his hand.
“From this time on, Kaipa will become the leader of the Black Hawks and follow my orders.”
Crash.
Three maids brought a jar and placed it in front of him.
This is one of Bae Hu-ryeong’s jars that only those with Strange’s name can receive.
‘A person who has not gone through trials cannot have Bae Hu-ryeong.’
I broke old traditions and gave him new powers.
“Together with me, you will exalt Strange’s name and usher in a new era.”
Kaipa lowered his head and held the sword in his hand.
“I will follow your orders.”
Then, let’s hit the jar with a sword with a black hawk drawn on it.
Kaang!
Bae Hu-ryeong, who had been hiding inside, appeared.
Easy profit-
A human cursed by a tower whose entire body is covered in blue crystal.
An anti-mage who used to climb towards the top of the tower as Siegfried’s adjutant.
‘Gary.’
I gave Bae Hu-ryeong to Kaipa to fight against the wizard.
In addition, knights who follow Kaipa are provided with the same weapons as Strange’s regular army. They wore mithril armor with a cross sword engraved on it, a shield, and a Damascus sword, showing off the power of Strange. Kaipa couldn’t help but be moved and bowed to me with tears in his eyes.
Crash.
“I will show my loyalty in the war against Glazer.”
* * *
Doo doo doo doo!
The Black Hawk Knights, wearing silver armor with Strange’s symbol engraved on it, rode on horseback.
Their spirit as regular soldiers was sky-high, and their bravery showed on their faces that they could fight without giving up even against wizards.
“Ugh!”
Kaipa waved his feathers at the front and raised his voice.
This is to threaten the animals and monsters that block the path.
When I lightly gestured out the window, he slowed down his horse, came next to me, and lowered his head.
“Did you call me?”
“Lord Kaifar. The purpose of this expedition is not to fight, but to move the people within the territory to a safe place and at the same time identify the waves to the east. “You know, right?”
“sure. “We have also delivered this to the company commanders of each unit in advance.”
“We need to leave here as quickly as possible, so please move quickly once the operation begins.”
He raised his helmet and answered with a determined look on his face.
“I will follow your orders.”
“It’s good. Oh, by the way – I decided to report to the cavalry commander from the eastern end. “They say there was a different type of monster than the monsters discovered so far in the waves.”
“You mean monster?”
“Yes, Lord Kaipa, have you ever dealt with these guys?”
Kaipa nodded his head loudly.
“I was going to discuss this with the head of the family. First of all, let me give you an answer: Our unit has dealt with waves from the east, and as you mentioned earlier, we have seen some strange monsters.”
“For example?”
“… It’s not easy to express in words. If we had to be honest, should we say that the races were mixed?”
“The races were mixed?”
“Yeah! I guess I can explain it this way. The troll’s upper body was attached to the griffon’s body.’
The image of the monster he was talking about was immediately pictured in my mind.
Doesn’t this look like a centaur with wings?
“And?”
“I also saw an ogre with a neck as long as a giraffe. “It’s so disgusting that he has three faces!”
This too was just my imagination.
I immediately knew who the culprit who caused the waves in the east was.
‘Philip.’
What on earth is the guy who is supposed to climb the tower with me doing in this life?
“How big was the number?”
“The guys we found were about fifty years old. “If that’s the case, wouldn’t there be several times more of them hiding there?”
“You don’t know where it came from?”
“It probably came from the north. It seems like they have a close relationship with Glaser since they don’t try to stop it… .”
The ‘waves’ we are talking about now refer to monsters flowing in from outside the continent.
Every year, when the seasons change, monsters begin to invade the continent from somewhere, but the reason and cause is still unknown.
Of course, since my past life was not revealed until after my death, it will take much longer than that.
“Lord Kaipa, I’m sorry, but the monsters coming from east to south right now don’t seem to be waves.”

“yes?! Well, then-”
“Probably some alchemist who joined forces with Glazer. “It looks like they were playing around a bit, but it seems like it’s posing a big risk to us.”
“Alchemist? “Are you saying they aren’t tamers but rather monsters?”
“There are a few who can.”
It wouldn’t be a task to create a modified monster with their knowledge.
Phew-
‘Things turned out more twisted than expected.’
As soon as Philip’s existence was recognized, the order of where to start solving the problem was decided.
‘If the operation goes wrong even slightly, the damage will increase beyond control.’
I have dealt with this guy in a past life, so I know how dangerous he is.
His ability to run a military unit is enough to destroy a country.
‘Because he can create as many high-level monsters as he wants.’
I closed my eyes and gathered my thoughts.
‘What are they aiming for by sending monsters to the south?’
Why is Philip moving with Glazer?
There’s probably nothing he can gain by attacking me now, so who on earth is he instructing him to do this?
There was nothing to be certain about. I can only infer their movements by rolling out small incidents in my head.
“Kaipa, what level of skill did the monsters you faced have?”
“uh… . Most of the ones we subdued within our territory were small and medium-sized. “Its size was about two heads larger than that of the same type of monster, or one more head combined.”
“It’s bigger than I thought.”
“Yes, you can think of it as a champion or a road-level monster.”
It’s called ‘Champion’ or ‘Lord’ level.
I wanted to quickly see what the reported monsters looked like.
Dagdauk, dagdauk, dagdauk!
We, who had been running so vigorously, came to a crossroads.
Kaipa led the cavalry into the forest on the other side, and I continued to run forward with the carriage.
* * *
-Keeeeee!
A goblin with green skin jumped from the tree onto the carriage.
Shake!
The coachman was disgusted and screamed.
“Aaaahhh!”
The two knights guarding his side swung their swords and took the goblin away.
“You damn bastards!”
“Yes, master. “No, don’t worry about the matriarch, just stay inside!”
After we parted ways with Kaipa at the crossroads, monsters hiding throughout the forest began to ambush us.
Since a single carriage is moving alone without a guard, how good of a prey would it be to attack?
‘yes.’
So I aimed for this point.
First, we need to figure out what types of monsters the modified monsters Philip created are and what they want.
Because if you know your enemy and know yourself, you can win even if you fight a hundred times.
This is the advice that my Bae Hu-ryeong, Siegfried, who was called the Sword God, has told me a hundred times a thousand times.
‘Thanks to you, I was able to overcome crises on numerous battlefields.’
I’m so glad to see him again.
Now that I think about it, I still had a lot left to learn back then, but this time, no matter what happens, I have to train until I reach the level of a swordsman.
“what? Hilt, you didn’t wear panties today?!!”
Siegfried stared at Brunhild’s cat’s butt.
“huh! “Why does a cat wear panties?”
“No, if I return as a human… . “You don’t have any panties, right?”
“Of course.”
“Oh oh… . “Do you plan on returning as a human today?”
“Nothing.”
“Wow! “It’s a waste, it’s a waste.”
pop!
I popped a bun in the carriage.
-Hey!
The horse got scared and stopped walking.
Siegfried, who was hit once, was also startled and punched me.
“Is this guy really crazy!”
“I’m sorry, I was trying to hit a monster.”
“monster?”
“Yes, look outside. “They had set up a trap in advance and were waiting for us.”
The driver who was pulling the carriage and the two knights who were protecting us were hit by the enemy and had arrows stuck in their chests and necks.
They were already dead and hanging their heads, so from here on out I had no choice but to deal with the enemy myself and move on.
“Keeeeeeek!”
Outside the window, I saw a group of goblins surrounding us. The weapon in his hand was a poorly polished farming tool. It was clear that it had been stolen by raiding a nearby village.
“… “It’s true.”
“Then is it a lie? “Do you really think I would have exploded a bullet in the carriage to shut up my perverted master?”
Theresia, who had fallen to the floor of the carriage unable to overcome the shock, got up hurriedly.
“Lord Bebebe Verdin, how did this happen? “Can we be attacked now?”
Without answering, I opened the carriage door and jumped out.
Rattling.
I pulled out my sword and looked around.
Although goblins are monsters that move in groups, they do not have such great intelligence that they set traps in advance and attack humans.
‘The leader of these guys is definitely hiding around here.’
Judging by the acrid smell of gunpowder mixed in the wind, the people behind these guys are humans.
Although the identity is unknown, the enemy’s location was accurately determined.
On a rock at least a long way away from here.
At the same time the question ‘Who is it?’ came to mind, gunshots rang out in the forest.
bang!
