Chapter 13 | War - Part 3

We set off at dawn riding Horses heading east is Sheria the Royal Capital of Trevold, sunrise, we saw a group wearing white robes.

One of them was not wearing a robe, a beautiful woman in formal dress with a wand in her hand.

That person is Miss Charlotte, even though she looks younger, but actually, she is over 40 years old, how can she be so young? the answer is with magic, but I don't know the type of magic used, but she is the strongest mage in Lunaria that kind of thing is probably very easy for her to do.

I stopped in front of Charlotte's mage squad..

"Oh, Miss Ina my friend, you finally came, earlier than I thought"

"Good, then what should we start now?"

Troops we have currently as many as 255 Troops.

10 Circle 6 Magicians, 100 A Rank Knights, 100 B Rank Knights plus 45 Shadow Phantom Knights that I lead.

While the enemy has 2220 total troops, 200 A Rank and 2 S Rank the remaining are B Rank and 20 circles 5 magicians.

200 Knights advanced towards the Trevold Kingdom to lure out the enemy forces.

"we are attacked! everyone get ready!"

Said one of the enemy troops.

The evacuation alarm was set, and the enemy had noticed our presence and closed the gate. Several archers started attacking our troops, but among the knights, we had deployed several magicians who used protective magic.

A noble who was on top of the wall, being the commander of that person's army was one with the title of Marques.

"They have magicians! Open the gates and attack them!"

"B-But sir, general Moskov said not to open the gate..."

"Do you want to fight a Marques like me?!! Even Moskov will obey me, do as I command! Our enemies are few, don't be afraid and just attack!!"

In the end, the gate opened and hundreds of soldiers began to advance, it's time for the second step.

"Everyone back off!"

Mark who was leading the 200 Troops gave the order to retreat, that was the second step.

"As expected they are scared! Everyone! Go after them! Whoever manages to kill one of them will get Gold Coins!"

Instantly the soldiers of the kingdom of Trevold became excited to hear the order. 2000 Troops went after our 200 troops to get Gold Coins on every head they cut off.

"Hahaha you stupid commoner, with this my leadership I will be recognized and I will be titled Duke"

We lure 2000 Troops into the forest.

The Mana concentration on the ground suddenly increased, causing huge explosions everywhere.

"W-What's that explosion?!"

Marques looked surprised to see an explosion happening in the forest, suddenly a middle-aged man came to him very angry.

"MARQUESS! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!"

"Shut up Baron Moskov! I know what I'm doing!"

"You got them killed!"

"Shut up! and mobilize your troops!"

2000 Troops chasing 200 of our troops have died, the reason why our troops weren't hit by the explosion was due to the [Aegis] magic that Miss Charlotte used.

Aegis magic would protect against magic attacks on allies, so we returned to the front of Trevold's royal gates.

While the Magic used to defeat Trevold's troops is a Magic Mine, which will activate when someone steps on it.

There were 100 knights and 1 person leading in full armor.

"That person is General Moskov, he is at Rank S"

"Looks like he's stronger than the S-rankers I fought earlier..."

Our troops met each other. The man named Moskov stepped forward and took out his dual Cutlass sword.

"I want to propose a 1 vs 1 match!"

Seems like he realized that he wouldn't win if he fought it head-to-head, so he proposed 1 vs 1 huh? interesting step.

Because it sounded like it pulled me forward, but when I stepped forward you could hear some people behind me startled, and trying to stop me.

"M-Miss what are you doing?!"

"What is she doing?"

"Hey miss it's dangerous!"

"Hey, she's not an opponent you can handle!"

"Miss Charlotte, isn't that your friend?"

"Is She going to face that person?!"

While the Shadow Phantom troops were silent, of course, I had expected this. Charlotte was silent because she already knew I was a Master when Duke Orton said so at yesterday's meeting.

"Shut up!"

Charlotte accepted their complaints and kept quiet. But doubt can still be seen on their faces.

I went forward and pulled out my sword.

"I am Moskov, General of the Trevold kingdom"

"Ina, Ina-Yamaguchi"

"What a strange name, you have an interesting sword..."

"Thanks for the compliment, then how about we get started?"

"Okay"

Moskov advanced with his Dual Cutlass, he didn't use Qi Sword, Aura Sword even physical magic. Do you want to test me? interesting.

With his Dual Cutlass, he swung his two weapons against my neck. I attack and attack him with a vertical attack.

Moskov blocked it with both swords, we were pushed back together.

"[Cross Slash]"

An attack came out of his 2 weapons which created an X slash.

"[Atom Slash]"

I split the attack into 2. Even so, Moskov was still focused on fighting and fighting X many times.

Knowing that his attack was in vain, Moskov stopped.

"Give all your strength!, I'll be serious about [Two-sword Technique [Death Slash]! Hiya!!!!!"

"Good, I also have some new techniques I want to try [Cosmos Sword Arts: One Focus]"

A duel between sword strikes ensued, I accelerated with my sword technique as well as her, and our blades met.

*sticky!

The Dual Swords in Moskov's grip were split into several pieces, a large slash carved into his body. His attack only grazed my sword, disappointing.

But it looks like this fight isn't over yet, Moskov turned to me and clenched his fists, with a martial stance.

"Hah?"

"I...I...still haven't given up, *huft *huft"

"Persistent bastard"

Meanwhile, in the back, I could hear the amazed voices of the knights.

"Miss Charlotte, is your friend also an S Rank?!"

"Who is that person, able to beat Trevold's best S-rank Moskov"

"No, the fight isn't over yet, just shut up and watch"

But on the enemy side, they looked very worried and kept shouting encouraging Moskov even though he was on the verge of death.

I thought they would interfere in our duel, but, knight code huh?

That's roughly what I heard, after I saw him using a martial stance, I sheathed my sword, and used the same martial stance as him.

"What a persistent person, but let me tell you, I'm more proficient in martial arts than swords, so if you want to give up now I won't kill you"

"I… I don't care, I still have a chance of winning, and also the pride of a knight, if you want to beat me then… ugh! kill me!"

What did he say? chance to win? does he underestimate martial arts? either way, it makes me angry.

"So that's your answer [Buddha Step]"

"Whoa—"

Not having time to react, I launched an attack on Moskov.

" [ Dragon-Arts [ Dragon Wrath: Chapter 1 ]"

Dragon Wrath: Chapter 1, blows repeatedly on the arm, so the opponent will find it difficult to launch attacks.

" [ Dragon-Arts [ Dragon Wrath: Chapter 2 ]"

A blow that uses internal energy to the abdomen brings the enemy to their knees.

"Uhhh!"

Moskov started spitting out blood, there were 2 reactions at that moment, the first reaction was shocked at the martial arts I was using, the second reaction was goosebumps in fear at the brutality of the technique.

" [ Dragon-Arts [ Dragon Wrath: Chapter 3 ]"

"Urgh!!"

An upward kick that sent Moskov flying upwards, with my Buddha Step above him in an instant, kicked him back to the ground.

" [ Dragon-Arts [ Dragon Wrath: Chapter 4 ]"

A blow from above hit Moskov's stomach and shattered the ground around him.

"Blurgh!!!!"

Moskov had his limbs shattered horribly by my attack. There was a moment of silence until finally the enemy troops became very angry and started attacking me.

"MIRST MOSCOW!"

"I WILL NOT FORGIVE YOU!"

The royal knight Lunaria also began to draw his sword because the enemy troops violated the knight's code of ethics, namely interfering with the duel. But once again the movement of the Lunaria knight was stopped by Charlotte.

"Stop"

"Why Miss Charlotte? They violated their code of conduct as knights!"

"That's right Miss! Don't tell me that Miss will beat her?! that's impossible!"

"Calm and watch"

100 People started attacking me.

"KILL THAT WOMAN"

"BITCH! HOW DARE YOU KILL OUR LEADER BRUTALLY!"

"*sigh.....A Knight's Oath? A Knight's Code of Ethics? A Knight's Promise? That disgusts me, Die you insects, [ Mana Blast ]"

I swung my sword and created a huge mana explosion, destroying the enemy troops and the walls protecting the city, the ground that was hit by the attack was also blown apart.

"That....Mana Blast?!"

"M-Master!"

"Master Level!"

"How come?! isn't it only Duke Orton, Master Level that we have?"

Everyone, there was shocked.

Sheathing the sword, I walked toward the knights.

They lowered their heads, wait! Miss Charlotte too?? what did you do? why did she go down too?

"We pay our respects to the Master"

"Stand up"

After that, many of them asked questions, but later ok? we have to secure clean up our work.

By the way at that time we saw someone riding a Horse out of the gate, how many times would it be seen that person was none other than the King, he used his crown and fled on a horse.

Did those I killed make an oath to the King like that? you guys are really stupid.

"Looks like it's the King, he ran away on his horse"

"Don't worry let me handle [Magic Arrow]"

A magic arrow from Charlotte hit the king's horse and made it fall

"Catch him"

"Yess Miss"

The Trevold Kingdom has been defeated by us. The city of Sheria has been taken over by us.
