Chapter 14
My Villains Episode 014
5-1. The killer’s debut stage (1)
“Don’t make me ask again! Are you a mercenary?”
I wanted to deny it, but I just couldn’t.
I was wearing a plausible breastplate, a waist-en-pulsion and a buckler. If not a mercenary, who the hell goes around armed like this?
I tried to keep my cool and answered the shouter.
“I am a mercenary!”
“what? are you next to me A wizard’s outfit?”
The man, who was not sure if he was an officer or not, broke away from the ranks and stood in front of us with three or four of his men.
Unlike the soldiers wearing thick quilted armor, the man was wearing armor in which pieces of iron were delicately joined in the shape of scales.
It was quite intimidating to see him wearing an iron helmet with the eyes, nose and mouth exposed in the shape of a ‘T’ and holding a flail (iron flail) with a large piece of metal dangling around.
While the man had a face that was hard to read, the soldiers standing behind him were openly sending wary glances.
Surely you don’t suspect it’s a pirate? …Uh, maybe. Because we are strangers.
“I’m la-pala,”
Ellen, who was about to reply, quickly blocked her mouth and pulled her behind me. Then, he squeezed his arm
so that he couldn’t come out, and answered instead.
“This guy is my nephew. I am still a student because I am too young to use magic.”
“A student.”
The officer looked at me with glassy eyes.
…Pyeonggyeongjang man told me not to look the other person in the eyes when playing Goura.
For some reason, I looked straight into the eyes of the officer, feeling that if I turned my head, the command would fall immediately.
“Mr. You must go.”
unarmed? Is it the name of the crest?
Anyway, the commander-in-chief heard the whisper of the soldier standing next to him and looked at me and ordered.
“The lord of the castle has issued a mobilization order, so follow me. If you disobey, you will be put in prison.”
“…All right. Then send only my nephew to the tower”
“No right now! You’re not even a child, so can’t you even run away by yourself?”
The military commander, who shouted, left without hearing an answer.
However, it was not possible to ignore his orders and escape. Two soldiers were watching me with their eyes wide open, and another group of soldiers was approaching from afar.
But as soon as the commander disappeared, El Ren shook my hand and shouted.
“A student? I am a proud one…!”
“quiet!”
I hurriedly covered Ellen’s mouth and met her eyes.
“Yeah I know. You are a confident wizard and one day
you will become the greatest wizard in the Middle World.”
At my whisper, Ellen calmed down a bit.
“But right now… you’re not in a state where you can’t demonstrate the functional side of a mage, right? So”
“Hey! How long are you going to talk! If you don’t go right away, I’ll arrest you!”
damn how long it’s been
A quick glance reveals impatience on the soldiers’ faces.
Soldiers in combat are beings who do not know what they are going to do. Provoking the soldiers was never a wise option.
I hurriedly handed the bag to the guy and said.
“Your job now is to guard the luggage. I bought it cheaply thanks to you, but wouldn’t it be a shame if I lost it?”
“Wait a minute you…
“Go quickly!”
I push Ellen away with all my might, then turn around and start running with the soldiers.
I felt a strong gaze behind my back.
Didn’t look back.
The army continued to grow in number as they rushed to the docks.
It was because they grabbed and dragged armed people by foot.
Thanks to this, by the time we reach the pier, mercenaries or sailors’ guild guards… should I say mobilization troops? Such people reached 900 people.
By order of one officer, the mobilized men were divided between two sergeants.
It seemed to be a plan to operate separately from the existing troops, but it was a very wise choice. I didn’t know if it was to my advantage or not.
In fact, I was pretty optimistic about the situation until I reached the dockside.
The soldiers guarding South Harbor were well-armed and well-disciplined.
The chain of command was also firmly established, and there were about five or six people dressed as wizards.
On the other hand, the pirates I dealt with a few days ago were nothing more than beggars with only one weapon.
In addition to that, there were already a considerable number of soldiers at the pier, so it was thought that it would be easy to drive out the pirates.
However, the reality was very different from my expectations.
“Militia! from now on!”
“You sound like a militia.”
What is the name of the militia? Militia. None of the people gathered here can be called citizens of South Harbor.
While wheezing, I slowly moved forward following the command of the sergeant.
Standing shoulder to shoulder with the mercenaries on either side, he kept his pace so as not to fall behind or lead.
But why did I take the lead among the 60 militiamen? Are you out of luck? Did you do something wrong?
The answer was this enemy-like Buckler!
Didn’t Buckler also say to stand in the first row because it’s a shield? At most, if you cover one shoulder, it’s the size of Dyne. I was really sad.
Meanwhile, Seongju’s soldiers took up positions in the center and right wing, and mobilized soldiers, or militia, were organized on the left wing.
The ranks that had taken up positions on the pier continued to move forward in the direction of the pier.
The pier had already been occupied by pirates. It seemed that all the soldiers guarding the pier had either died or fled.
How could beggars with only one weapon crush well-armed soldiers?
Because not
all pirates were beggars .
nettle.
As if cutting off my thoughts, a sharp wave-like sound passed over my head.
It may be because of my mood, but it felt like I had brushed my hair, and chills ran down my spine.
In a moment of horror, the arrows fired from behind hit the pirates.
These poorly armed men who stood at the forefront of the pirate ranks were pierced by arrows and bled to death.
Glancing back, I saw soldiers perched on the roof of the building eagerly reloading their crossbows.
“Ooh!”
“We shoot too!”
“Shoot them boys!”
There was a commotion among the pirates once and an arrow was shot.
puck.
“Keuw”
I almost got hit. An arrow had lodged itself in the shield of the mercenary next to it, making a dull sound.
I was terribly resentful of myself at this moment. To be precise, he resented Kim Seung-su of the past, who was equipped with a buckler, saying that he had the option of ‘opportunity attack’.
Kim Seung-soo is like this stupid dealer. It was the same magic item anyway, but it’s just a big one.
I regret it even more when I see the reliable original shield that covers the entire upper body of the man next to me.
The buckler was only the size of my head, so I felt like I would have to jab it rather than hold it to block the arrow.
But the problem was that the arrows were really terribly fast. It seemed to be three times faster than Ryu Hyun-jin’s fastball.
So I lifted my buckler and covered only my head and neck.
Ugh, this is why I should have bought the helmet first
!
“Kek!”
Like a shotgun, no, just a ‘shotgun’ hit me in the chest.
Although it bounced off the breastplate, the suffocating pain is transmitted…
“Are you okay?”
“Kuh, yes, it’s fine.”
After hearing my answer, the mercenary man came to Batu next to me.
As the man on the right came closer, the shield he was wearing in his left hand naturally covered my right shoulder.
Could this man be from heaven?
“Thank you…
” “Hehe, do you use a knife? Look behind me.”
“yes? Yes Yes…
I nodded with a trembling face. I must have thought that I was a pretty strong guy after seeing my physicality and the pulse I picked up.
In fact, I was almost in a panic right now.
Fighting with a few pirates on a ship and fighting with an army were two completely different things.
The place that was sucked into chaos was literally a battlefield.
The sound of heavy breathing and shouts, the sound of arrows cutting through the air—or wood grain or flesh—and the sound of screams made my ears stop.
The fishy smell of the sea and blood, the smell of sweat and oil, and the acrid smell of burnt numb my nose.
Countless pirates were visible under the lifted buckler. It was so full of sight that I couldn’t even guess how many there were.
It sounds like someone is talking on the sidelines, but I can’t hear anything.
Armed men squeezed out from among the beggar-like pirates.
He wore an iron mask with a chain hood and chain armor that reached down to his knees, and he was holding a large two-handed axe.
This doesn’t work. Dangerous.
Seeing their eyes, I thought I should run away.
They were bloodthirsty wild beasts, and I was just the underdog who was lucky enough to fight to the death and win.
could never win
“hey!”
“Huh billion!”
I was startled by a hand tapping on my back and turned around. Then there was a woman, not a woman, standing there.
The female warrior wearing a round helmet frowned at my face.
“What is this guy? Were you really scared?”
“What is it?”
“Look ahead and tell me!”
oh i’m crazy To look back when the enemy is right in front of you!
When an arrow went through my feet, I screamed in annoyance.
“Oh shit! What!”
“Ha, the temperament. I’m going to rush with my colleagues, so please look behind me.”
“What is that… Before I could finish my answer, the sergeant let out a loud roar.
“Militia! charge!”
“Whoa!”
Then the female warrior shouted as if she had waited and ran forward.
Five mercenaries ran after her, shouting at each other. The old man who covered my shoulders was also covered.
Before the soldier next to the sergeant could blow his horn, the female warrior and her men had jumped forward about four or five paces from the ranks.
“Turn around!”
“Death!”
In the next moment, everyone around them started charging.
In the midst of that overwhelming madness and fighting spirit, I just stood there with my chin rattled.
“What is this crazy thing?”
“hey! Charge!”
While I was unable to do this or that, a sergeant with a wild beard approached me and threatened me.
“Rush, coward!” match!
A hand clad in a rough leather glove slapped the slap.
…this bastard?
Instead of barely feeling any pain, extreme shame and displeasure erupted from the pit of the stomach.
Kwajik.
The kick that had been kicked up quickly got stuck in the sergeant’s stomach.
“Billion!”
When a sergeant with an N-shaped waist kneels down and vomits, the two soldiers standing behind him are startled and point their spears at me.
“You bastard, you’re crazy!”
“Drop your weapon!”
Whoa- Looking at the sergeant stomping under his feet, an enormous amount of air filled his lungs as if his chest had been pierced.
Yes, I was Phoenix, not Kim Seung-soo.
He was not a thirty-year-old petit bourgeois, but a full-blooded blood knight.
Oh see lime. Blood king blood knight. I’ll name the character like this.
“Put down your weapon, you bastard!”
The soldier shouted and threw out his spear.
The spear fired by the soldier was surprisingly slow compared to an arrow. Even if he yawned and pushed it out with a buckler, he was confident enough to repel it.
Quick!
“Billion”
and Buckler went beyond simply bouncing the spear and broke the spear.
My body’s strength and the power of the ring, a relic of the dead blood knight, combined, and my strength exceeded the boundaries of a superhuman.
A feeling of omnipotence that had been forgotten for a while squirmed and flowed through his body. The blood of a ferocious warrior began to heat up the spirit of an ordinary petit bourgeois.
” hey.”
“What what is it?”
Seeing the two trembling soldiers, I said in a calm tone.
“This was self-defense. Are you angry or not?”
“What kind of bullshit is that…
“I don’t have much to say.”
I glanced ahead. The mercenaries and the pirates were mixed and continued the turmoil of Abigyuhwan.
I pointed in that direction and said.
“Am I rushing now?”
“…what?”
“I’m rushing right now. I didn’t protest, so you guys have to testify. Got it?”
The soldiers met each other’s eyes with trembling expressions.
boring pups. There is no time to talk to these guys.
“
This dirty mercenary…”
Wow I kicked it pretty hard and got it up.
What’s more surprising is that he looked at the battlefield before getting angry with me.
“Damn it…
He spat out a small curse with a darkened complexion.
is it disadvantageous? …I don’t know how to look at it.
“you!”
“Eh yes?”
Ugh, I did something wrong, so I’m going to say respectful words.
“Looks like you’re using some force.”
“Well… I tend to be like that.”
“Heh, what a dog. Cut down twenty enemies. Then I will forgive you.” ” twenty?”
“okay!” I was worried because I had an accident, but I’m glad I did.
but twenty? It seems like a lot…
but I couldn’t be haggling here. I thought there would be a real bounty if I did.
“I promise!”
“Yes, you bastard!”
As soon as I heard the sergeant’s answer, I kicked the ground.
Then, he cut his wrist with a pulse.
Blood spurted out and wrapped itself around Pearl Sean and the shield.
Then, a burning thirst took over all over his body.
At first glance, his vision was red, but his senses were sharper than ever.
And if there is no shout in the charge, I feel empty.
I squeezed my stomach and screamed like crazy.
“Kwaaa!”
