Sword Pilgrim-Chapter 214
Episode 214
Three months have passed.
Now, three months have passed since the trust was issued.
Carpe lost some of the southern and western lands guarded by Luidren.
The corpses of Carpe’s soldiers were strewn across the street, mercilessly trampled by the enemy’s feet. The ghosts who couldn’t return to their hometown wandered the battlefield.
But there was nothing Carpe could do.
The Empire pushed in from the west, and the general offensive of the principality continued in the south.
Damage was severe in both the south and west.
“It’s a big deal.”
The queen swallowed.
Luon von Luidren, the eldest son and successor of Luidren, was killed, and the head of Luidren was also killed along with him. Ironically, the one who killed them was Lutheon, who was also a blood relative and joined the army of the principality.
“All of them come from my negligence. If only the departure of the golden lion had been delayed a little! If I had been sent to the battlefield a day earlier, this would not have happened!!”
The one who bowed before the Queen was one of Carpe’s masters.
It was Gerald of the referee.
When he, with his white hair and dense white beard, made a sad face, the queen shook her head.
“It is unavoidable. who would have known To think that Lutheon would have killed his own brother and father in an ambush with the army of the Principality…”
The southern sword was lost.
When Luidren’s Golden Lion Knights, who had been defending the south for the rest of their lives, collapsed, Violen Gorge, which was a military hub, was taken away, and even a castle was handed over, and the situation quickly became difficult.
“Still, it should be said that it is fortunate that Luidren’s lineage has not been cut off.”
“yes. Good thing. How about west?”
“Count Orvid is doing a good job, but since there is a difference of more than 10 times in troops, I can’t find a way to do anything about it. Although they are delaying their advance with successive siege battles…”
Among the four great nobles, Orvid is the knight family that shed the most blood with the Empire.
Because of their history, they were fighting well with the Empire, but since the size of their forces was nearly ten times greater, there was nothing they could do other than repeating defensive battles to reduce damage and retreat slowly.
“There is nothing you can do. The West is not only the empire, but also the association of those who have been called by God in the name of the Holy Army.”
It is an army gathered from all over the continent to punish Carpe, who has been stigmatized as a country of renegades.
The empire, which was enemies on all sides, was also able to unite in the name of God this time, so they were doing their best to drive out Carpe, who was like a thorn in the eye.
Thanks to this, Carpe was on the path to destruction this time.
That’s what I was thinking.
“Your Highness, don’t worry too much. There will be no additional troops because he is holding strong.”
“…Could that rumor be true?”
“It is unlikely to be a rumor.”
Kwajik.
Queen Clara, who crumpled the complaints she was reading, recalled the rumors she had heard.
‘Grey land.’
The missing Carpe knight.
It refers to the land where Colius is located.
Those who received the oracle of all kinds of gods formed an army and marched to destroy him, but no one came out of the gray land.
“But if the rumors are true, then the fact that the Count was in collusion with the Corruptors is not an empty rumor.”
“That’s…”
The gray land where Colius is.
There was an army of corruption that had never appeared before.
Continental pilgrims and paladins gathered there to create an army and infiltrate it, but all were annihilated by the mighty power of corruption.
“An army of 100,000 was annihilated. After that, a large army of 300,000 was also annihilated.”
Having lost her appeal, the queen could not help but swallow her saliva.
This is definitely something to welcome in Carpe. This is because corruption appears in the gray land and confuses the continent.
When all eyes were focused on Carpe. With their appearance, Carpe was at least able to relax.
“But it’s something we should be really happy about. As a human being, we have no choice but to be in conflict.”
This is when the power of corruption reappeared in the world.
How can we be happy when the main enemy of mankind is so strong?
Clara couldn’t be happier.
“I’ll have to check if it’s true or not.”
“Of course it is. But the ‘Gray Lands’ are located to the west of the Empire.”
It is a difficult time for most articles to go abroad.
“It is not only difficult to dispatch a reliable messenger… It is impossible to turn the core force overseas at an unexpected time.”
However, it is difficult to do so at a time when one person is sorry to send strong articles to confirm.
Wouldn’t it be a big deal if you go out and get killed by a dog?
“How about sending him?”
“Who are you talking about?”
“Sir Brance. If he’s the ironclad dragon he rode on, he’ll be able to play the role of a messenger.”
Bran and the ironclad dragon.
When the Holy Army broke through the western border.
The dominant evaluation was that the damage would be indescribable had it not been for the ironclad dragon Bran brought.
With his timely appearance, Bran did an active job that could drastically reduce the damage in the west.
Of course, the ironclad dragon has done everything, but at this point, the ironclad dragon only listens to Bran’s commands.
“Each of the Gray Knights he commands is amazing. A person named Politan makes the enemy like a puppet with a single thread, so even a hundred per cent is not enough.”
“But that’s why it’s dangerous to send Sir Branth. If the ironclad dragon leaves, the enemy may find out and march right away.”
“Currently, for Carpe, Sir Bran’s power is an indispensable power.”
It was a conversation that would have been absurd had Colleas heard it, but it really was.
Beatty and Politan, which had been entrusted to Brance as a warning to Krasion, were still in Bran’s hands, and because of that, Bran was active on the battlefield of Carpe.
“Then what about her?”
“Who are you talking about? Sir Carina.”
Fire Karina.
A red-haired woman with burn marks knelt in front of the queen.
“I’m referring to the count’s daughter, the rank knight Emily.”
“…but. Sir Emily is still young and her skills have not been proven enough to carry out her duties.”
How can such a child
In order to confirm the truth, you have to move away from the eyes of the empire or principality, and of course it is something that can only be confirmed after going through other rugged journeys.
But how could such a dangerous and arduous job be done to a girl who hadn’t reached adulthood?
“Even though she is an average knight, she is also a Carpe knight.”
As Karina pushed forward, the other nobles also nodded.
“Come to think of it, she has something he left behind. There is an iron armored horse wearing black iron armor. It is said that you can iron up to a thousand miles in a day, let alone a thousand miles. Besides, she is a talent among talents who has never missed the head of the royal academy.”
It’s been a long time since that skill spread throughout Carpe. Speaking of Emily at the academy, she’s famous among young people.
“But…”
“Talented people are old enough to come out of troubled times. If she is innocent, God will take care of her, so why don’t you leave it to her?”
“…that’s right. I’ll ask Sir Brance to get Sir Emily out of the country quickly. It won’t matter if you move for a while.”
thud.
Clara, who put the seal on the edict, looked at Karina with strange eyes and held a meeting about the next agenda item.
* * *
“Ahem. Emily von Zervan. And Bran, follow the king’s command.”
chuck.
The king’s order is handed down to Emily and Brance, who are kneeling.
“It is urgent, so please leave immediately. The King has very high expectations from you.”
“There is something I want to ask you.”
“Ask.”
“If the fact that Count Zervan is cooperating with Corruption is true, then Carpe…”
“Corruption is the enemy of mankind…”
Being with Corruption means that he is also Corrupted. it is right
“Carpe will strip him of his post and consider him an enemy of mankind. If that happens, you will be the owner of the North.”
“You’re talking a little harsh!”
“I said for example. Could Count Heo be like that? However, it is important to check the work, so I would appreciate it if you check it as soon as possible and come back.”
“yes.”
Called Mannani’s daughter for the rest of her life.
Now she was a hero’s daughter.
However, he quickly became a renegade who earned the wrath of God, and now he may have been corrupted.
Emily couldn’t believe that this was the case.
“Brance, is this right?”
“Ha ha ha… well. Don’t you have thoughts too? don’t worry too much Miss…”
“…let’s get ready. Because I need to know how it came about.”
He didn’t come back at all, so I looked at what he was doing and said he was corrupted.
Emily grabbed hold of her shaky faith and began preparing to leave.
As they were preparing, strangers appeared at Zervan’s mansion.
“Pilgrims?”
They were baptized this time and became pilgrims. Among them was a pilgrim of a similar age to Emily.
Because the turbulent times were turbulent, they said that even those lacking were made into pilgrims and sent to the battlefield, so it seemed to be true.
“Are you guys going too?”
“That’s right.”
The pilgrim standing at the front nodded.
Emily pointed her finger at one of the pilgrims who looked strong.
“name is?”
“This is Chris.”
“You look young, but are you the captain?”
“First of all, yes.”
“It’s strange that it’s so delicate. Aren’t they sent by the Queen?”
“Yes, I have come to assist Sir Emily at the king’s command.”
Soon Emily looked at the pilgrims one after another. I couldn’t see them closely because they were wearing robes, but one of them had aqua-colored hair and the other had long ears.
And seeing that there was a short man with a tail, he seemed to know who it was.
Besides them, there were about twenty pilgrims. It occurred to me that it would be quite a journey to lead them to the Gray Lands.
“…okay. okay.”
After getting ready, Emily put her luggage on top of Schniff and got on.
“Brance-!”
Let’s scream for the mansion to leave.
Soon, somewhere in the back mountain, which became famous as Zervan’s mountain, a dragon with its huge wings spread wide flew up.
“Oh oh! That’s what I’ve only heard in words…”
“Dragon Rider Sir Brans!”
“To be able to see the hero in real life!”
No matter how much rumors say that he has legs and gain weight, he is a hero.
Stunned, Emily and the pilgrims set off on the dragon’s back.
When I went up to the sky in an instant, I could see Carpe at a glance.
Leaving behind the country of Carpe, which looked like an image of a huge sword, he headed for the gray land.
* * *
Gray land.
The owner of the place, Colius, hasn’t moved here for the past three months.
It wasn’t difficult to make the holy relic that Demetri created as her own.
However, it took time to make it fully his own.
The gray power he created was a very strange power.
Gods always create new powers. It is soon called by the name of divine power.
It is the power of a completely new concept.
He didn’t become a god, but Colius was a little different.
It’s not because I made something that didn’t exist, it’s because I made something new.
So, did that power become the basis?
The aura that was gray like a flutter of ashes was a power that embraced everything.
Maybe that’s why the sword was like that.
“It’s a sword case that holds anything.”
In his hand is a scabbard made by Demetrius, risking everything he had.
A gray sheath was clutched.
Gray scabbard Demetri.
Callius couldn’t help but feel more familiar with Demetri.
Demetrius own power.
gray aura. It was because the power of high-purity remnants was imbued with it.
For the past three months, I have been using [Attribute-Efficiency] appropriately to constantly infiltrate my energy.
Thanks to this, the scabbard fully retained its remnants and became a sacred object more suitable for oneself.
“I was worried that it would become a sub-space backward compatible, but I never thought it would be like this.”
That’s the concept of embracing anything.
Therefore, he did not trust the power of the holy object made from the scabbard.
Didn’t expect it.
At least, it has enough power to hold various weapons. I wondered if it might be the power to be compatible with the subspace.
Still, since it was the first sacred object created for himself, he gave it strength.
He thought this was the cornerstone of his new beginning.
However, after briefly testing the power of the scabbard, Callius was stunned.
It was because the power of the scabbard was so amazing that he refrained from expressing emotions after becoming a calius.
“I didn’t know that it could not only contain anything, but also mix and combine anything.”
While holding the scabbard, he used Sunbo.
In an instant, the scenery fluttered and he was in the middle of the battlefield.
Ten thousand soldiers were startled by his sudden appearance and grabbed their spears.
“Who are you!!”
“That head! eye! Gray gray!”
“It’s the gray demon king!”
However, Callius didn’t care and grabbed the scabbard.
Then a strange thing happened.
Whoo-!
Didn’t some of the numerous corpses that fell with the strong wind turn into a gray light and be sucked into the sheath?
And a new sword appeared in the scabbard as if it had originally existed.
‘Mix and combine. It’s my foundation.’
softly.
Grasping the hilt that flew like ash, Colius pulled it out and cut it straight away.
Originally, a sword that should have been at the level of a famous sword.
However, when they gather and permeate the holy relic of the scabbard, it becomes different. Just as his energy originally mixed and merged different things.
The sword was also like that.
and that day.
An army of 10,000 was all reduced to ashes with one blow.
