The Count’s Youngest Son Is A Player Chapter 228

Episode 228

“….”

The sky is so far above that the wall and the city port can be seen as big as the palm of your hand.

There he was floating leisurely.

Black bandana.

Black cloak.

Even black leather armor.

With his entire body dyed black, he looked like a knight or warrior at first glance, but…

wow.

The black wand vibrating in his hand clearly belonged to a wizard.

“It’s a completely different situation than expected. “How should I interpret this?”

The voice coming from the man’s mouth was so cracked that it was impossible to guess his age.

More than 10,000 cavalry units running from the kingdom and numerous soldiers marching behind them.

After seeing their appearance, the man, no, Great Sage Black, raised the corners of his mouth.

“white. Looks like you’re wrong this time. “It seems the kingdom has not yet become as corrupt as we thought.”

Then, he looked with a strange expression at the blue gem with a strange pattern engraved on it that he was holding in his left hand.

‘In the end, there will be no use for this guy.’

Do the people struggling down there know?

The fact that a vicious weapon that would turn them into ashes in an instant was almost activated.

This blue gem, which just looks beautiful, was a kind of switch.

‘It’s the detonator of a bomb that will completely destroy the Wall and part of Corps Road.’

From the moment they first erected the wall, the three great sages had no choice but to prepare for the moment when the wall collapsed.

That the walls are falling.

That was no different from the beginning of another great war.

They experienced first-hand how many people died and the continent burned in a long war with the empire.

We will do our best to prevent war, but what if we cannot prevent it?

The consensus was that it should at least give the kingdoms time to prepare for an imperial invasion.

Thus, the arrangement of the three great sages was made under the Wall and Corps Road.

If activated, the writhing energy of death would have erupted underground in Corpse Road, creating another artificial forbidden zone that no living being could enter for at least three years.

As a result, many soldiers and even outstanding superhumans guarding the wall would be sacrificed…

‘If it was a situation where the Empire would attack, they would have had to make a decision, even if it meant using their allies as sacrifices. Even if I get criticized by everyone later because of that.’

In any case, the worst they expected was avoided.

The wall will not fall.

And the problem of the ancient seal, which may have been difficult to handle, seemed to be solved thanks to a completely unexpected person.

“You were right this time, Gray.”

White, who plans to keep the empire in check through the power of magic and the media.

Black himself, who promised to crush the enemy on the front lines and break their will to invade.

Gray wanted to prepare for the future by supporting and nurturing outstanding talents from the continent.

No one was wrong, but Gray’s arrangement was shining today.

Gurgling!

The Demon Temple, which was filled with terrible demonic energy and malice, was falling to the ground with a loud noise.

Entering the inside of an already activated demon temple and capturing a demon of earl level or higher!

Black was amazed that the person who had accomplished this incredible feat was only a seventeen-year-old boy.

“I feel so refreshed. Damn demon bastards.”

The demons fighting on top of the fortress were probably distraught.

The Demon Temple, their home base and source, has collapsed.

Now, rather than receiving a supply of demon energy, they will have to maintain the Dark Gate with their own bodies.

There was no reason for him to participate in the war when the situation was this bad.

The more a strategic weapon was hidden from view, the more frightening it became.

Black left the sky above the wall, watching the reinforcements sweep away the imperial army’s main base and demonic beasts like waves.

‘Raoul de Ashton. I’ll remember that name well.’

* * *

“Who dare you shake your fist at?”

“Whoops…!”

Quaaaang!

A part of the top of the fortress wall burst.

And a black doll was pushed off the castle wall and fell to the floor.

It was the demon Quevier.

Due to the sudden attack, it was unable to properly catch the wind and fell awkwardly.

“Which bastard…!”

“grow!”

Whiuuuung quaaang!!

As soon as Quevier raised his head and opened his mouth, a man jumped down from the castle wall and struck down a golden greatsword.

The Auror blade he created was so large and fierce.

Four huge furrows ripped through the ground beneath the castle walls, as if a bear had swung its claws.

“Damn…”

And four diagonal lines were engraved on the demon Quevier’s body, and demonic energy was leaking out.

“Kneel!”

Gooooo!

At the same time as the man’s rough voice, a large golden auror blade covered the sky.

A huge bear-paw-shaped Auror blade over 5 meters in diameter fell from above Quevier’s head.

“Kaaaaaa!”

Wind swirled and surged from both of Quevier’s arms as he gathered his strength as if struggling.

Coo coo coo coo boom!

And the bear’s paw cruelly crushed the whirlpool.

Even then, I still wasn’t satisfied.

bang! bang! bang!

Before I knew it, another golden bear’s paw appeared in the air, and the two paws took turns tapping the floor.

Pusss.

A black haze rose from the ground that had been crushed to dust.

At that time, the haze that had bloomed widely was quickly flying towards a certain direction.

“Go to hell!”

Chajajajajajag!

Dozens and hundreds of Auror Blades flashed as if they were cutting the air with their claws, splitting the sky itself.

– Twaaaaah!

A black haze burst into flames accompanied by a loud wailing sound, and then it quickly turned into ashes and disappeared.

“Who’s next!”

The Golden Bear of the Ashton family.

Count Melvin de Ashton, the matriarch reborn as the Master, roared from beneath the Wall.

After the Demon Temple collapsed, the demons’ characteristic skills that had been developed based on infinite demon energy were almost sealed.

The demons were only able to use half of their original power, which led to fatal results.

Superhumans from the Kingdom’s Allied Forces who joined the Wall along with Count Melvin.

And it was the result of the combined efforts of the Wall’s super knights, including Lord Hansley.

The demons, a symbol of fear and destruction, were subdued.

The Gate of Darkness, which was maintained by the Demon Temple’s enormous magic power and the presence of the Demon World nobles, also disappeared from the wall.

And the imperial masters who belatedly climbed the fortress walls.

“Wow, they are so quick.”

Jake shook his head and clicked his tongue.

When the reinforcements joined, they immediately went out to look for the imperial masters, but they had already disappeared from sight.

The knights who were dealing with them said that when they took out a strange piece of parchment from their chest and tore it, it was enveloped in a strange magic circle and disappeared.

“It’s probably a teleportation type magic scroll. However, it is questionable whether it would have worked properly in such unstable atmospheric conditions. Anyway, thanks to this, the damage to our allies was reduced, so you can stop feeling sorry.”

Kane explained his guess, but Jake slightly savored it.

“Still, it would have been nice if we could have reduced the number of even just one person when we had the chance.”

“Are you confident about that?”

“what? Are you going to fight?”

After all, two people can handle one superhuman, so what can they do to find the Imperial Master who has disappeared so late?

While Jake and Kane were bickering, Raoul and the warrior party also safely returned to the fortress.

“Wow, as expected of a master! “I was looking forward to it.”

Jake greeted him with a thumbs up, and Kane bowed his head in silence.

There was no need to report the battlefield situation verbally. The moment the Demon Temple collapsed, a report was made via guild communication.

“Everyone worked hard. “I’m more fortunate than anything that you’re safe.”

“You’re safe? Can’t you see this? “It’s completely burned down?”

Then, when I partially removed the helmet for a moment, I could see the skin that had turned red and red and the head that had turned into a bald mountain.

“this…! “I will treat you right away.”

When Saint Kiera pointed at Jake with her glowing white hand, his skin, which had been blistered from burns, returned to its original appearance.

However, the burnt eyebrows and hair were still gone.

“Is it possible that I will never grow like this…?”

“I don’t think so.”

“Whoa.”

The moment Jake sighed, I felt Kane, who had been quiet, flinch slightly.

Raoul chuckled and turned his head to look down the castle wall.

bang! Pretzel Gwang!

“Wow!”

“Experience! “Let’s sweep it away!”

“Don’t act alone! “The mobs’ level is no joke!”

“Here are the survivors! Where’s the healer?”

Count Melvin, who was wiping out his enemies with tremendous power, and familiar figures came into view among the superhumans.

Purple guild members, including Kim Il-woo, and rankers from cooperative guilds.

And a huge number of players were moving under the wall, attacking the demonic beasts and the remnants of the enemy.

“The level has risen a lot.”

“Yes. “It seems that not only guild members but also regular players are at least at the level of an apprentice knight.”

“Now I have to do my part. “You never know when you might come into conflict with the empire like this time.”

Raoul said with a slightly bitter expression.

History has been distorted.

In the past, it was just a matter of changing a small stream, but this time it was like twisting the flow of a river.

The wall that should have fallen survived.

And the players were sucked into the flow of the main scenario more quickly.

Raoul could not guess what result this change would bring.

Will the empire break its will to invade and hold its breath, or will war start again through another route he does not know about?

Everything is now shrouded in fog.

‘No, it won’t change completely.’

The war with the empire was not the only scenario.

As soon as this battle is over, a new scenario he expected would begin, and he had been steadily preparing for it.

“Are you worried?”

Kane cautiously asked if Raoul’s expression was stiff.

“No, not at all. “I’m actually looking forward to it now?”

I’m not sure what Kane asked.

Are you talking about the First Viscounty support troops fighting under the castle walls, or are you referring to the players, including Ilwoo?

But Raoul could now speak confidently.

The time of waiting and preparing is now over.

Look before your eyes.

It was only three days.

As I mentioned in advance, it has been only three days since the guild sent a communication saying that reinforcements were needed at the Wall.

My father came running in person, leading the knights and soldiers of the Earl of Ashton.

Sir Philip joined with the First Viscounty’s First Knights and elite troops.

In Marquis de Greer, Marquis Fidel de Greer personally appeared on the battlefield with Ken.

Dalton was leading the troops along with the Knight Commander of the Duke of Templeton.

In addition, the Purple Guild and other cooperative guilds, players living in the First Viscounty, and players who received help from the First Guild in the Free City joined the battlefield.

The number is in the tens of thousands.

Even compared to the reinforcements sent from other kingdoms, it was overwhelming.

‘If only I were with them!’

I gained confidence that I could overcome any scenario that came my way.

And one day, wouldn’t it be possible to find out the identity of the game called Connect and the reason why one was brought back to the past?

“Now that we’ve had enough rest, let’s get moving.”

“Yes Master!”

Raoul pulled up his golden auror and jumped down the castle wall.

Before he knew it, an army of weapons that had become his trademark were following him.

* * *

Boom.

“So which families participated?”

“It is said that the Earl of Ashton is the main family, and the Marquess of Greer and the Duke of Templeton have also joined.”

Wow!

The furniture that had been placed on the desk was thrown to the floor.

“Have you seen these cheeky things! How dare you ignore Jim’s words? “I’m sure you delivered the message, right?”

“Your Majesty the Crown Prince. “It is said that they clearly conveyed that troops should not be moved across the border without permission.”

“And yet they moved their troops? “Isn’t this treason?”

“…!”

Beads of sweat flowed from the forehead of the messenger who was reporting to the Third Prince Herdian.

“Lowering. It is difficult to discuss treason. Calm down a little…”

“Shut up! What on earth were you doing? “How can we calm down when those traitors ignore the royal family and move their troops as they please!”

Herdian seemed to be losing his temper and cursed at Viscount Brayden, who was nearby, and screamed for a while until the entire palace rang.

And after a while.

The messenger who left the Third Prince’s study bowed his head and expressed his gratitude to Viscount Brayden.

“thank you. “Thanks to you, I was able to get out safely.”

The viscount used his body to block the prince, who was so angry that he drew his sword and was about to cut down the messenger.

“What is gratitude? It was a lot of hardship and what happened here….”

“I will never reveal it.”

“okay. “Let’s go.”

“Yes, Viscount.”

As the messenger disappeared, the corners of Viscount Brayden’s expressionless mouth turned up.

It seemed like the desired result was achieved.

At that time, a knight came up and said.

“Marquis McNeil is looking for you.”

“Father…?”

“You are now at the capital’s mansion.”

“I get it. “Go right away.”

Viscount Brayden.

He, the 3rd Prince Herdian’s closest associate, was the fifth son of the Marquis MacNeill.

“Oh and.”

He stopped for a moment and spoke to the driver.

“The messenger who just left. “Be sure to handle it cleanly.”

“Yes, Viscount.”

Herdian’s honor had to be preserved, at least for the time being.

Just like that, the embers of another war began to slowly burn inside the palace.
