Chapter 204.
“Male daughter!”
While staring blankly at the sky, Callisto grabbed me roughly and hugged me. Completely blocking my vision, so it’s hard to see.
Cog, cog-cog! Hundreds of arrows were stuck in the defense boundary that the sorcerer unfolded. The void is at stake.
It looked like it was barely resisting the wash of arrows, but it was an illusion. The shaky knot soon had. Through it, a pair of arrows flew.
“Bah!”
Most were quick hits with shields and swords, but some of the knights who didn’t dodge were hit by the arrows.
“Ah!”
The sorcerer who was shivering beside me and casting defense magic was shot down by an arrow on his shoulder. Instantly, the boundary broke.
After the arrow baptism stopped, the small strong state came. But I was well aware that it was a short gap.
“Shit!”
Shooting the flying arrow again, the crown prince shouted roughly.” Male daughter, now! Jump to the edge of the forest with this man, now!”
Callisto roughly picked up the other sorcerer who was crouching next to him, then pushed my back .
“You, take charge of moving the male daughter to safety. You hold the life of the crown prince in your hands. Do you know that?”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
The sorcerer shook his high hat frantically.” Your Highness! They’re preparing to fire a second time!” The good Cedric shouted eagerly.
“Round ranks!”
“Aye! All troops, circular procession centered on Your Highness!”
As expected, the Crown Prince’s elite troops moved without panic even during the surprise attack. Instantly, the knights centered on the Crown Prince and I raised our shields.
However, it was self-evident that this kind of team wouldn’t be able to do much. There wasn’t even a slope, and there was no place to hide in the swamp that opened up around us.
Combined with the fact that our feet were weak, we could hardly even move quickly. The enemy who shoots arrows overhead. It was a perfect annihilation trap.
“Go on, you need to get down there, male daughter!”
“What are you doing? Go!”
The feet did not descend easily. Looking at me, who kept hesitating, Callisto threatened me. That hissing sound choked my throat.
Wanting to be around to help, but squeezing the mirror that could use magic made no sound. I recited a few scary magic spells in a lower voice, but nothing came out.
Crazy system, ah, the magic has appeared. Why can’t I use magic? I fidgeted and just flinched as the crown prince left.
At that time.
“Your Highness! They suddenly stopped shooting!”
“The swarm of magical creatures has been split in two!”
As the knights reported one after another, the howls of the new demons resounded. I was blocked from view by the shield and didn’t know what was happening.
The situation was over when I suddenly felt a wind accompanied by hot air.
“It’s fire!”
Spewing fire, the few demons that flew at an alarming speed were engulfed in fire.
The group was in disarray, it was a pure eclipse. It was as if an explosion had occurred, and the surroundings opened up.
Between the broken ranks, once again the demons spewed fire and flew towards us at full speed.
“Ahhhhhh!”
The palace sorcerer standing next to me was caught in the clutches of the approaching demonic creature and instantly disappeared.
“Dammit! Keep your head down, male daughter!”
Something heavy fell from my head, and even if it wasn’t needed, my body involuntarily lowered itself. It was the crown prince’s cloak.
“Your Highness!”
Startled, he called out to him. But the worry was unfounded.
“Ah!”
Callisto skillfully avoided the approaching demons, cut off his wings, and killed the enemy that climbed on them. Looking around, thankfully his men were also fighting effectively, killing the enemy.
The sound of iron clashing and the screams of people followed one another. I was the only one standing alone in a pool of blood.
Once again looking at the crown prince who was beheaded on the enemy, I suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
But why stop shooting?
Shooting arrows overhead, a tactic that was easy to extinguish turned into a dirty meatball battle. In addition, another group of enemy troops from Split is still standing by overhead. Was it a jet lag attack?
“As long as it’s a demon, it can fight ……”
Looking at the knights whose ranks are in disarray and being treated almost one-sidedly, I muttered again in a low voice, “Your Royal Highness.”
A grunt. It was pointless. It was a whispered insult toward the mirror stick that had no answer for the shakti.
“Public Lady!”
The crown prince who had killed the demon and plunged his sword into the descending enemy army was a sight to behold.
The way he watched from the side and eagerly ran towards me slowly flowed away. Following him, he turned his head without a second thought, and filling his sight were the footsteps of the monstrous creature that was approaching at an alarming speed.
“Ho………”
I reflexively blocked the front with the mirror wand in both hands. But the claws of the demonic creature that was close at hand suddenly folded its direction in front of me.
Then, towards the back of the large branch that was covered by the hemp clothes suddenly stretched out its arm.
!!!
Instead of screaming, I grabbed that arm and leapt onto the demonic creature. Frozen with fear,, my body was pulled tightly into someone else’s arms.
“Found it.”
A damp, somber whisper. A familiar voice. I slowly looked up. I hadn’t expected to meet him here at all.
“This …… Ikris ……?”
“…… Master.”
Godless eyes soaked me.” You, why ……”
Why are you in the Duke’s house? The moment I tried to ask reflexively, a set of memories suddenly flashed through my mind.
Going to the North. To reach out to the rebels. Killing the crown prince, you became the master of the empire.
Even the last time we met, Ikris who was finally brainwashed by Ibn. He finally listened to those words and became a rebel.
No wonder I always hear the voice of “Delman” …… Seeing him staring at me, his anger turned inside out.
“You must be crazy!”
“…………”
“Let go of this. Let go!”
I messed around trying to free my body from this guy’s grip. But he doesn’t move a muscle.
“You’ll get hurt more easily if you struggle.”
Then he holds me in his arms and pulls the reins.
The low-flying demons changed direction and surged upwards. After closing my eyes for a moment because of the violent wind, I hit his chest with my fist with a “snap” and screamed.
“Are you crazy? I don’t have enough back of my head to ride a demon now?”
It wasn’t said like that. In hard mode, he’d been mesmerized by Eben, accusing Penelope of evil deeds, but not even the leader of Van Lanshire had survived.
It wasn’t too much to ask how he’d been brainwashed, was it?
“Couldn’t go back to the Iben’s, so now you simply decided to eat even Leila’s Sioux?” I yelled at him angrily.
“I’m mad? That’s because of you.”
“Don’t use me as an excuse. Am I the only excuse you have?”
“Then why did I feed it blood? And to tame the disgusting Demon Lucky Demon Hatchling.”
Ikris who drove the Demon Thing forward suddenly lowered his head to face me. I was blocked by the fiery flames spewed out by the Demon Thing and didn’t have time to look at it. His bloodshot eyes were colored with madness.
“Because of you who disappeared overnight. To find you who abandoned me and went away …….”
“……………”
“Gathering the military, staying up for days and nights, searching the empire like rats …… in the north.”
It was the sound of a riff that ran down an open jaw.
“Afraid you’d be sad, you left me behind who didn’t even think of killing that cub, just …….” The aura of the whimsical Ikris took my breath away.
Looking into blood-filled eyes that seemed to be bleeding, I couldn’t say anything. At that moment.” Crown Prince!”
A demon approached next to me and the demon riding Ikris.
“Their power is stronger than I thought! In that case, you might lose all your demons! Only he follows the original action …….”
“Found the target. Retreat.”
“Is that so? In any case, combat is …….”
Instead of talking back, he hit the reins.
“Crown Prince?”
The unfamiliar summoning of Ikris made me just panic.
“What happened after I escaped the Duke’s house?” But thinking too for the moment.” Duchess!”
The voice calling me was suddenly animated. Looking down, the Crown Prince brandished his sword in his hand and ran frantically towards the demon I was riding under.
“Your Highness!”
But it wasn’t long before another enemy attacked him. At the same time, he flew up above the magic object piloted by Ikris.
“Let go of me!”
In a vision that was getting farther and farther away from the ground, I violently resisted once again.” Let go of me, boy!”
“Don’t move, master.”
Not moving at all was enough, and Ikris pulled my waist tightly toward me and whispered.
“If you don’t behave, I’ll kill the boy right here and now. Why did you stop shooting, ah.”
