The Knight King Who Returned With a God

Side Story Leon and Pleasant Friends (2)

Sir Leon. Say it again.

·······.

Gildus and Antoc's eyes and expressions pouted.

You want me to say it again?

Life and free will are precious...

Puhahahaha!

Two people laughing. They didn't stop laughing until they were about to run out of breath.

Our blood is soooo...! What color is it?!

That's right it's red!

Stop it.

I'm sorry Hash world~

shit. Many people 10 years older than me persistently tease me for getting one.

“Hehehe what kind of greenhouse did Prince Leon grow up to be so naive?”

...Isn't that the son of Lord Gildus and the count's family?

Regarding your status you are also a high-ranking nobleman Confucius in response Gildus pounded his chest and said confidently.

My family is an honorable battle aristocrat who defended the kingdom's borders as a Margrave. Their actual combat experience is different.

It is said that the battle aristocratic family which is in charge of protecting the frontier from generation to generation has a lot to fight against the savages. As such it seems that he knew well about their ferocity from a young age.

My family has been blacksmiths for generations. It's close to Cheolsan so there was a lot of interaction with the dwarves.

Sir Antoc was from a commoner. His innate dragon power was so great that the local lord provided the necessary equipment for the journey and he served as a knight of the kingdom before embarking on the path of training.

He was already married with a child but if he was a savage he would tremble.

The Grand Duke of Dragonia is far from the barbarians. That's why I heard there are few serfs. But still Sir Leon's innocence seems a bit excessive.

·······.

Did you know that I am Barbarians are not usually chewy.

Who would have known that they would be crazy people who would commit murder and plunder as if they were eating human sacrifice and even cannibalism?

Furthermore like the fantasy medieval they are said to be more vicious because they are the ones who serve the evil god. It's understandable that adult food eats people.

Cheolkeolkeol. Instead isn't Prince Leon's hometown bordering on the Orcs' habitat? I bet he didn't even say mercy to those beasts.

·······.

I tried my best to keep my mouth shut at Lord Randolph's words.

Actually... I tried. Let's trade with the thugs next door and get along well with each other.

But I didn't know that bastard would try to kill me out of nowhere. They're not warriors they're just beasts beasts.

By the way how was Gunlar? Didn't he live near the World Tree fighting with elves?

I try to turn the question to Gunlar. He scratched his head and talked about his hometown in his characteristic slow tone.

The forest is quiet. It's peaceful. Except for the occasional elves... who catch breeding males.

······The town is still there though?

They are a people of peace where horses harmonize with nature but there is no tribe as promiscuous as they are. They are very combative.

I raised my hand and asked Gildus who was trembling.

Elf... messed up? Are you saying?

Ah don't you know? Elves aren't easy to conceive by nature and male elves don't increase in number because they lack sexual desire. So if Irmin the goddess of the forest bestows His protection even a different race can conceive.

Oh is that true?

“Besides they prefer strong men and often kidnap knights. Sometimes half of the knights of the county are taken to the forest of elves? Well I persuade half of them to take them.” freeweb novel.co m

shit! Why are there no elves in the forest next to my house! Wasn't the basics of the fantasy of Gogaeng an elf forest next to it a dwarf mountain in front and a dragon rare in the back mountain?

Keuheum... Sir Gildus. I want to visit Sir Gildus' hometown sometime.

Dear Arthur. Do you want to hug an elf like your great-grandfather?

Rather good.

Sir Antoc?

······ Farmers.

Anyway we pass the time with small talk and Gunlar is writing something.

With the wooden board he always carried whenever he had time he would engrave records on the wooden board and carry it around with him.

What did you write down again this time?

The words of a dead serf. An interesting thought.

What's interesting about that worm?

Majoritarianism by the absolute majority the idea of ??a trade union community. Equal distribution of power to the majority. Interesting.

It would certainly be interesting to a scholar. I killed it but the serf's words were the foundational ideas of democracy.

To think that such an idea was extracted from a medieval fantasy serf would lead to a democratic ending.

Heng...! That's bullshit!

Gildus seemed to be full of energy.

The right to rule is sacred. It is a right granted only to those who have proven themselves through endless self-discipline and refinement. How can the ignorant people share power?

In response Baron Randolph also agreed.

“Lord Gildus is right. The people are by nature neither rational nor rational so there are many cases where they go wrong. They just do their job faithfully.”

·······.

Well it was a story that was hard for me to relate to as a democratic citizen until 18 years ago. The aristocracy here has a great sense of choice but a strange sense of duty to the people? I mean that's faithful.

The people work hard on commerce agriculture and urban development the nobles work hard on management and policies and the knights become strong fences to protect the kingdom.

It was a very idealistic role theory but does this really work?

Right now even Gildus is the son of a Marquis but he has been a strongman who has been fighting barbarians since childhood and even though Baron Randolph is treated as a ‘child' by the citizens he sends his wife and daughter out to take care of them like their own children.

what? Isn't this the savage Middle Ages I thought it was?

In any case the citizens who came to the amazing festival where he put vicious criminals and serfs into the hunting grounds and wondered who killed them better shouted It was in the middle of the street.

Sir Leon! Sir Gildus! Sir Antoc!!

At that time Baron Randolph rushed in. He visited us the participants on the third day of preparation for the serf hunting contest.

Baron Randolph. What are you doing?

Are you going to participate in the serf hunt again?

At the question of the two Baron Randolph shouted as if he couldn't control his anger.

These damn serfs have run away!

What!

Unbelievable!

Baron Randolph's words shocked the two of them. That's right... I want to be like that too. If we continue like this we will all die anyway so we will try to escape.

It's like these miscellaneous things that don't even know how to do it! How good I've been!

yes? what do you do While eating a meal with water mixed with sugar and salt?

I even gave you a chance to wash away your sins but are you going to end up in the arms of the evil spirit!

They don't even deserve forgiveness! Let's chase them!

·······.

First of all it seems that the way to cleanse one's sins in this world is to rip out the soul and undergo purification in the afterlife managed by the goddess of death after death.

Even if they died as serfs they were given a chance to cleanse their souls of sins so Lionheart's knights considered it rather mercy to brutally kill serfs.

No matter how many times I think about it they are fucking crazy.

Anyway we decided to go out to track down the runaway serfs. It felt like they were doing something for the territory for free but Gildus and Antok acted like it was natural so I joined without a second thought.

What about Gunlar?

That fellow is slow and not suitable for a chase. Shouldn't we hurry after them on horseback and tear them limb from limb?

Look what Gildus is talking about. It's brutal it's brutal

Anyway Gildus who had done a few missions to track down the serfs in his childhood skillfully tracked down the serfs.

Soon four knights and twenty yeoman riders including Baron Randolph pursued the serfs and caught them trying to cross the river.

Excuse me! We'll have to dig their heads before they cross the river!

Baron can't you make those words... less bloody? Why did the aristocrat investigate the head...

Anyway I opened my hand to the yeoman rider thinking that they would run away if I continued like this.

Hey give me a bow.

yes?

Aren't I from the people of Jumong? One bow shot terribly.

I tried to shoot them with the Yeoman Rider's bow but they stumbled and widened their eyes.

No give me a bow. What are you doing now?

······Nari. How can an honorable knight try to use a ranged weapon?

???

what is this again? What about ranged weapons? What would you do if you were a mounted archer and disrespected ranged weapons?

What's the matter with the ranged weapon? Hurry up and give it to me?

I'm sorry sir. I cannot give you my bow even for the sake of your honor.

???

No weren't these color wheelers crazy about classism? Why are you stretching out? However it was not only the Yeoman riders who were curious.

Sir Leon. Why are you trying to use such a lowly ranged weapon?

That's right. If you're a knight you should think about defeating the enemy bravely with a sword and spear.

······ No serfs are crossing the river right now. What do you mean by catching them other than ranged weapons?

At those words Gildus and Antoc raised their jousting spears. No you're doing a jousting spear charge here?

To Lionheart...! Glory be to you!!

Blacksmith's Guardian! Protection to your rider!

Boom!

With an incredible roar the spears flew through the air.

Large jousting spears that blew air over distances of hundreds of meters and pierced the backs of serfs who had barely crossed the river.

-Pak!

-Oops...!

- Hee hee!

The serfs who had been pierced by the spears fell limp. cried Baron Randolph.

Riders shoot them with their bows and kill them! Let not one of them be sent alive!

On the other side of the river the yeoman riders rode up and fired their bows. Some died but some survived and fled into the woods.

Hurry up and chase them! Cross the river and they'll catch them soon!

Lord Leon throw a spear! This will be good target practice!

Watching the two men who pierced and killed serfs by throwing their spears at a speed that far exceeded the range of a bow I followed along dumbfounded.

-Quack!

this is real

Sometimes I wonder what the knights of this world are doing.

* * * *

Damn it!

Baron Randolph banged on the tea desk in anger. The sturdy wooden desk is cracked.

Damn the barbarians! You dare threaten us there!

The pursuit of the runaway serf was only half successful.

They succeeded in slaughtering more than half of the serfs who had fled across the river into the forest but on the way barbarians came pouring in.

It can't be helped. I can't believe I met their tribe without luck.

“It was right to retreat there.”

Although Gildus and Antoc were arrogant they gave reasonable answers. Yes it was fortunate that I had the reason not to charge head-on against 5000 barbarians.

We can't end it like this! We have to slaughter them!

I had no choice but to step in to calm Baron Randolph's seizures. Gildus and Antoc are saying that they will raise their honor in the midst of this...

Calm down baron. There are no knights in the estate except the baron and us. Right after the busy farming season it is difficult to mobilize soldiers.

The baron's forces consisted of 40 yeoman riders and 100 gnostic soldiers. In addition it is difficult to mobilize soldiers because it is the holiday season and even off-duty soldiers have to be mobilized to guard the territory.

The actual troops that can be mobilized are all 40 commoners on horseback so why are they going to war with 5000 barbarians?

Now is the time to fortify the walls and thicken the defenses.

Whoops don't worry Sir Leon. We have 20000 armed forces.

yes?

* * * *

Kalash the chief of the barbarian tribe who serves the beast god mobilized 5000 tribal warriors to rescue the captive tribesmen and burn the hated Landolph estate.

They were aware of the strength of the Randolph Manor from the tribesmen who had escaped the manor and were convinced that 5000 warriors would be able to annihilate those hiding behind the wall.

Chief! Chieftain!

At that time the tribesman who had been sent as a spy approached Kalash and reported.

Okay what did you find out?

Wow the kingdom bastards are supplying 6kg daggers!

what?

Kalash expressed doubt at the sudden supply news.

A 6 kg dagger? Where in the world is there a dagger weighing 6kg?

Among the great swords used by the warriors of the tribe the largest weighs about 6 kg. A weapon of that level would be a large weapon wielded by great warriors. That kind of weight is called a dagger?

Are they crazy?

Not only that. Rumors abound that Baron Randolph is mobilizing an army approaching 20000!

Ha...! Only 20000 people in the Baron's Territory? You're bluffing.

And lastly... It's a story about annihilating 5000 of our troops with 300 troops. He even boasted that if the war situation moves as he reads it would be about 90%.

“Surrounding and annihilating 5000 people with 300 people?”

At those words the inside of the tent started to stir.

While the central unit is engaged in defensive battles their elite unit surrounds them with both right and left wings. When the absurd tactical plan of annihilation came out everyone was even wondering.

No matter how crazy the knights of the Lionheart Kingdom are are they carrying out such a reckless strategy?

After thinking about it Kalash felt the hairs all over her body stand up.

6kg daggers 20000 troops 300 units and 5000 siege units.

After putting all this information together the conclusion came out to be a very realistic nightmare.

Ji retreat now!

Chief? What do you mean by that!

We need to get away right now! Holy shit! Too late!

Everyone looked at the chief of the Kalash tribe in disbelief but only he spoke a confident conclusion with fear-filled eyes.

300 knights are coming.

* * * *

Fortunately there was an order of knights who toured the kingdom near Randolph's estate.

300 Thunder Knights of Wolves one of the Holy Grail Knights the strongest armed group in the kingdom.

As the best knights of Ultima the god of sky and thunder they willingly responded to Baron Randolph's request and ran nonstop day and night and immediately engaged 5000 barbarians.

To Lionheart...! Glory be to you!!

The knights of the Thunder Knights charged and shattered the front of the barbarian army and used their mobility to break through with the left and right wings. As it was it caught the left and right sides of the enemy central army and completed the encirclement.

And the most elite knights including the captain of the knights dug into them.

And then the unprecedented massacre began.

Thunder and lightning rang from the sky devastating the area and it took less than 6 seconds for the savage tribal leader Kalash to become a black mass from the lightning strike.

The tactic adopted by Baron Randolph in this battle the encirclement and annihilation formation was highly evaluated and studied down to posterity as the most effective tactic for the enemy's invasion.

A talent that transcends the times was born here.

·········

······

...

No fuck this it's not just that they destroyed everything with strong knights. It's a tactic and a strategy.

Article because that's possible!

Lionheart Kingdom is peaceful even today.
