I Regressed to My Ruined Family

I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 300

#When we returned, the family was ruined (301)

Originally, the situation in which the most casualties occurred in a war was when one side retreated out of fear.

If the ranks are disorganized and they run away randomly, not only will there be a significant number of casualties from being trampled to death by military boots. This is because being stabbed in the back is bound to cause the greatest damage.

The entire plain was stained with blood. Sharp swords were stabbed into the backs of the dragons who were running away in fear.

A very small number resisted until the end without breaking the ranks, but this was a meaningless action in a situation where the momentum was strong. Many dragons died. The knights and soldiers did not let go of the reins of the chase.

They already had a first-hand feeling that the situation was completely tilted in their favor. As if that wasn’t enough, I also witnessed the duke’s incredible activities with my own eyes.

In an instant, the fear that had been consuming my heart just five minutes ago began to be covered by anger and madness. The fishy scent of blood was a special medicine that paralyzed reason.

“Ugh!!”

“Look back! “You bastards!”

Each soldier began to run wild as if they had become berserkers. Ethan didn’t sit still either. Because among those who resisted until the end, I was looking for the strongest ones and blowing off their heads one by one.

Every time a white light flashed from all over the front line, the dragon people could not help but feel extreme fear. The moment I looked at the flame with my eyes, my head was already blown off.

That was not a being that could be dealt with with courage alone. How do you deal with a monster that can control a war all by itself?

Even Red Eyes and Blue Tail, the strongest forces in the big city, were helpless.

Run away!

Where?

The place the humans were heading to was a large city located in the south. Even if you escape there, all you can get is a useless inorganic object called a castle wall.

A monster like that would have jumped over a 20-meter wall in one go. What happened next was obvious. The massacre will be repeated again.

Nearby small towns, mid-sized cities, and even large cities were just places with no meaning.

You can!

The place that crossed the minds of the dragon people was Apraxia, the capital of Dragonia. A place where a large number of top-level dragons are located along with the monarch. Only there could save their lives.

Taking advantage of their aimless hope, the dragons began to flee to the central region.

By the time the grueling chase was over.

The bodies of the dragons that had fallen on the plain were over 10,000 pounds. Of the number that came to greet us, nearly half of the dragons met death.

A march that lasted half a day.

Even though that was not enough, the army had even fought a battle, and its morale was higher than ever. This battle was on a completely different scale than when the castle walls were occupied.

In fact, it was nice to see it as a real ‘war’ that I personally experienced for the first time. In a situation where anyone could see that he was at a huge disadvantage, the duke completely turned the situation around with just his strength. To the 30,000 soldiers, Ethan was already a perfect hero.

Together, we are undefeated heroes who will never be defeated!

The faith firmly established in their hearts made the soldiers’ bodies move spontaneously. Even without the knights’ command, they were naturally beginning to organize their battle lines.

Chuck chuck!

When the formation was naturally formed, Ethan raised his sword.

“We won today!”

“Wow!”

“Long live the Duke!”

“Long live Ardan!”

“Polonem is now nothing more than an empty sheet of paper. I will ask. Would you like to rest here? Or will you bring down a bloody mace on the dragons?”

“I will bring down the iron fist!”

“Keep the entire army moving!”

“yes!”

chuck!

chuck!

chuck!

chuck!

Military boots trampled on the floor without any disturbance. The soldiers had long since forgotten their fatigue.

The fall of the great city of Polonem!

This news spread beyond the capital Apraxia and throughout the southern continent. The remnants of the defeated soldiers, who ran so quickly that their faces were disfigured, were able to explain faster than anyone else how much of a monster the duke was.

As the saying goes, a horse without feet can travel a thousand miles. This rumor began to spread dozens of times faster than when the story of the capture of the small town spread. The reason was simple.

This was because the number of defeated soldiers was incomparably greater than in the past. This is a whopping 10,000 defeated soldiers. The remnants of the defeated soldiers, who spread like toxins throughout the southern continent, became a loudspeaker more than anything else.

The dragon people who heard about the war were astonished. The two highest-ranking dragons that rule Polonem: Red Eyes and Blue Tail. It wasn’t that they made foolish decisions as commanders.

The number of soldiers squeezed out of Polonem was close to 20,000, and as if that was not enough, soldiers from small and medium cities were accepted and the number was increased. On the other hand, what was it like on the human side?

In an extremely short period of time, they conquered distant cities.

Even a fool could easily infer that the forced march continued without even a proper rest.

Moreover, the advance to Polonem was continuing.

Even they themselves would have imagined an all-out war clashing on the plains.

Because there was no reason to hide within the castle walls.

Small or medium-sized cities could move passively due to the small number of soldiers, but large cities were places with a ‘big’ name and name.

20,000 dragons were a unit capable of fighting 100,000 human soldiers. That’s probably why it moved. There would have been no need to besiege the castle. The two commanders made a reasonable decision.

It’s just that they failed to take into account the only variable, Duke Ethan. His skills had reached the realm of the irrational.

The more I thought about the words of the defeated soldier, the more it became true. The duke clearly stepped forward and ignited mana on his sword.

It was said that he decapitated Red Eyes in less than a second.

It was said that the sight of pure white flames moving towards red eyes followed like an afterimage. The same was true of Blue Tail’s death.

―Even if it were six stars, such a thing would be impossible…

―Is he really human?

―Dragonia… is it really in a dangerous situation?

The agitation spread uncontrollably. The duke’s skills had reached such a level that even a hundred thousand dragon army could not handle it.

As if that wasn’t enough, rumors began to spread that further aggravated the anxiety. The story was that a temporary conscription certificate with the royal seal was being circulated. Royal conscription was not carried out outside of a designated period.

But temporary conscription letters are starting to circulate? That meant that the royal family was also starting to be wary of the duke’s power. Still, it did not lead to extreme confusion.

This was because the text in the conscription letter stated that even the prime minister and various high-ranking ministers would directly participate in this war in order to overcome this crisis.

If it were not enough for a large number of top-class dragons to participate, the number of soldiers would be greatly increased through temporary conscription.

At least you won’t be defeated helplessly. The duke may be strong, but in the end, he is only an individual.

If the highest-level dragons came together in droves, they might be able to stop him, even if it meant making sacrifices.

There is one more piece of news that could calm the confusion.

That was the news that the Demon Dragon, one of the six stars, was returning to Dragonia directly from the West Continent.

What if the ruler and high-ranking dragon people join forces?

The aspect of the battle would definitely change. Only then did the chaos in the Southern Continent slowly begin to subside.

This was because they were able to lower their awareness from a huge sense of crisis that the Dragon Clan might disintegrate to a solvable problem.

“Damn it!”

Prime Minister Cruatz scratched his head after looking at the document. It was one of the behaviors he displayed when he was most stressed. I had no choice but to accept it. That’s because the content written in the document was shocking.

“You idiots! “Why on earth did you throw away the advantage of the castle wall?”

The red eyes and blue tail have already turned into Gohon. The problem was the arbitrary actions of these two guys. What would it have been like if the castle walls had been locked and held on?

The city walls are up to 20 meters high. I acknowledged that the duke’s status was monstrous. Surely even the castle walls would not have been an obstacle to him. If war had broken out anyway, the two commanders would have died.

That was acknowledged.

Even so, they wouldn’t have been completely defeated like this. throat. Crowded dragon soldiers. Up to the tall castle walls. Plonem was practically a natural fortress.

At least, while ten thousand dragon soldiers were dying, there would not have been an unfortunate incident in which they could not even kill five hundred human soldiers.

Four small towns.

Two mid-sized cities.

Even one big city.

The total damage suffered by Ardan’s army while occupying seven cities was less than 1,000. In fact, while nearly 50% of the northern part of the kingdom was taken away, at most, not even 1,000 human soldiers who were not knights died!

It was a rumor that could not be stopped, just like the previous case of the fall of a small town.

A situation where the anxiety of the people could not help but reach its peak.

In the end, the ministers and the prime minister had no choice but to make a decision. They themselves are ‘actively’ participating in this war.

“Damn it!”

This wasn’t the original plan.

The ministers had no intention of actively participating in this battle. This was because I was able to realize how strong Duke Ethan’s power was through the stories of the defeated soldiers.

Those with red eyes and blue tails were at most a little weaker than themselves. Such commanders met their deaths in less than a second. It was a story that would give you goosebumps. What if they actively participate in the war?

The end wouldn’t be much different from that. That’s why I planned to call the demon dragon, attach the kingdom’s army, and have it deal with the duke.

However, it was not possible to act like that even in a situation where a ridiculous complete defeat was revealed. Anxiety grew to the point where the demonic dragon alone could not calm the chaos.

It was obvious that if they did not participate in the war, a huge disaster would come. The demon dragon won’t stay still either.

If they criticize themselves by citing the existence of the kingdom, they will end up in a situation where they have no choice but to cry and go to war.

This was the reason why high-ranking ministers, including the Prime Minister, had no choice but to vote for office. If the situation is bound to go that way anyway, it would be much better to move first.

‘two days later.’

It was the time when the demon dragon was expected to arrive. I hope the human group will stay still until then.

Cruatz scratched his head and prayed earnestly.
