How to live as a wanderer

38 The city was warm that year (12)

"I had a bad dream and now I'm in a commotion! ’

The White Guard commander falls into an unexpected ambush and watches the mercenaries pouring out from his side. Suetlq shouts in an unbelievable voice that he is an old man.

“To the Red Iron Mercenaries! To the Knights of St. Gallanto! It's time to fulfill your contract with the city! ”

If it were the other mercenaries, they wouldn't have stood up to the hundreds of elite who would come at us with such ferocity. I didn't know if I'd been caught or run away.

However, the Red Iron Mercenaries were loyal Dwarf mercenaries, and the St. Gallanto Knights broke their vows and hung themselves.

As they had reserved, they ran out to the side without hesitation.

“Fire!”

When White Captain Kumar shouted, the Dwarves took out the loaded bolts and scattered them to the rushing mercenaries.

Pufferpuck!

With a heavy voice, the mercenaries collapse, grunting. Some were hit over the shield, but they were lying around.

The dwarves' crossbows have different firepower than the mercenaries'. It was that hard to load, but the dwarves never intended to reload anyway.

“Shield wall! Prepare to advance! Do not retreat in the name of the Red Iron! Your ancestors are watching you! ”

“Praise be to God, my Rock. He is my fortress, my fortress...”

The Knights of St. Gallanto murmured the Scripture and drank the liquid in their leather sacks. Then their eyes flashed and they took off their wide open doubles. He's in a state of frenzy.

Suetlg, who saw it, hated it. I knew the fighting power of the Cultist paladins, but I got bored every time I saw them like this.

“In the name of St. Gallanto! Charge!”

That holy water, made by the vision technology of the St. Gallanto Knights, was water that once drank it, it did not retreat until death, but made it follow the will of God.

But at the same time, I had to rely on those monks. Suetlq takes out the reagent and starts reciting the incantation.

“As long as I know your secret, river Ipael, I beg of you...”

Then, from behind, a dark fog started to enter. The fog was so dark that it was hard to see. Thanks to you, the dwarf mercenaries and paladins are hidden behind you.

“Wizard! You're amazing! ”

The White Guard commander sends his compliments to Suetlg's base. I can't believe you're responding to a surprise like that.

Enemies who attempted an ambush were embarrassed as the reserves were brutally beaten and caught in the fog behind them. There were no elites who wouldn't be embarrassed in a situation like this.

Doubt they've fallen into a trap!

The suspicion slows us down.

“Baron. They're stronger than I thought! It's not what you said! ”

“More support will be coming soon. I thought you said you brought Trolls! ”

Baron Eiben cursed at the secretary. We need to push the Trolls to the other side of the enemy as soon as possible. What are they doing? He was definitely lazy somewhere.

The battle in this world was very uncertain and messy. Most of the time, things didn't go as planned, and even if they were just a little bit apart, they were almost unreachable.

But things almost went as I thought. The punitive force that underestimated the bandits has gone deeper. Now, if you defeat them once, they will fall on their own.

“Push, don't even think about backing out. I won't forgive you if you try to trick me! Stand back and all of you will hang from the gallows. ”

The baron gives you a nod. He also brought it up to urge the baron, not to back off.

The mercenaries caught in the theft were merciful. Everyone will be sold into slavery or hanged.

I had to go back and win to get my hands on the gold. Even if the opponent is a crazy paladin or Dwarf.

The mercenary commander squeezes his helmet strap and shouts.

“Hit it! Support will be here soon. They're exhausted! They're about to collapse! ”

“So the emperor didn't want Marcel to give his dissidents all that gold? What you're doing is exhausting. ”

I'm not confident that I can take the nobles to the trial, so I can falsify the evidence and assassinate them, or send soldiers out in public to attack the city.

All this was a result of lack of strength. If the emperor's power were strong, he would not have done such a thing.

The emperor who rose to the throne by pre-election voting had no power outside his territory, but he constantly coveted more than that.

It was natural for nobles ruling their own lands to revolt.

“You're nervous because the ducs are awakening to the Emperor's tyranny. The emperor does not deserve a crown! ”

“Yes, you're right. ”

“Shut up! You despicable bastard. One more splash and I'll tear you apart. ”

“I'm sorry! I'm sorry! ”

An angry Elven Knight confronts you as the secretary approaches to flatter you. I felt like I wanted to cut it right now.

Meanwhile, John checks his thoughts in his head. What is the most important thing in this situation?

It was natural to join the base and fight, and most of all...

‘I think it's best to catch this Baron Einben. ’

Not only was he a noble worthy hostage, but he was the best person to fuck with the Emperor about this matter. The rest is irrelevant, but even though Baron Eiben cut off his tail, he was highly regarded as the Hand of the Emperor. He will not be able to stand up. If I had eyes, I'd recognize them all.

“Sir, give the order. I'll gladly do as you say. ”

“No, just the way I used to...”

“You're right. If Lord Johann says so, I'm happy to oblige. Please send down an order. ”

John hated the look of Elven Knights pretending to be close to him. To be honest, I didn't fit in well with the Elven Knights. I didn't want to become human even though I was rewarded for saving my life.

However, the Elven Knights continue to speak to each other amicably.

Where are you from? Do you know any nobles? Do you want to go under Earl Bartok? How much do you owe the Senate?

Thanks to this, John sighed in relief when he found the battlefield far away.

“Well done, Karamaf. ”

John praised the wolf. Taking on the Trolls, gathering the horses behind them, and capturing the secretary, and guiding them to this battlefield was Karamaf's ball.

“... are you chewing Troll meat? ”

Grrr.

John wanders around, but not everyone seems to notice. He was brilliant at putting the meat in his mouth.

“Prepare to charge. We strike back at them and destroy their advance as they approach. ”

I did not intend to be able to give a very difficult instruction. The Knights are basically stronger than those mercenaries anyway.

If I hit it and made a war, that was enough.

“Sound the trumpet. Lord Johann. Lead the way and I'll follow you!”

“Charge! Charge! Honor!”

The bandits panic as knights protrude from the back of the forest. Elite mercenaries from the Empire have yet to repel their enemies, but knights have suddenly appeared behind them.

“Fire!”

The Knights of Saint Igna shoot arrows from behind. It was a flaming arrow. The mercenaries scream at the flames that carry them even if they are shielded.

‘It's over.'

Enemy mercenaries were already scattered with screams before the cavalry hit the camp. Without proper preparation, the cavalry attacked from the rear, but no one was able to survive.

And these mercenaries became a delicacy. John swings his spear with a cold expression. You pierce the neck of the escaping mercenary, then raise your other hand to hit the other side with a mace.

“Shi, Shi Pal! Die!”

A fallen mercenary tries to stab John on a horse as hard as he can, but the Elven Knight rushes right at you and smashes his head with his hoof.

“Don't you dare look over, you lowlife scum! Hey! Take care of Lord Johann! ”

“I'm sorry, my lord! ”

An Elven Knight's minion hurries to the side of Johann. John grumbles and charges forward.

Baron Einben and the Bull Mercenaries' commander were finished, just as I had a hunch that John was finished.

The mercenaries and bandits who need to hold out won't last much longer if they go down like that.

“Son of a-- sons of a-- sons of bitches! That's how I sprinkled the Doubloons! ”

Baron Eiben was so excited that his eyes popped out that he cursed at the mercenaries. How much did they spend to bribe the Oak Mercenaries and make them brave enough to fight the battle?

But he can't even stand it and get smashed to bits!

But to the mercenary commander, it was inevitable. The knights are crashing in from behind, and who can stand them?

“Hey, get ready to run. ”

The mercenary commander whispered to the mercenaries and deputies escorting him. The bull mercenaries will soon fall. I had to fall before I could escape.

“What are you going to do? ”

“We need to get out of here. Mr. President.”

“Getting out of here! How are you going to cope with the rest?" ”

“You're already wrong. If we bring ten Trolls, they won't regroup. ”

“Don't talk nonsense! If you get paid, pay for it! You think you're gonna be okay like this?! ”

“Take the President. I'm getting out.”

The mercenary commander had no intention of arguing with the baron. The mercenaries quickly grab the baron and start falling behind the battlefield. The men who fight in the blood in front of you have no idea that this is what the commander is doing.

Grrrrrrr!

“Yes, I saw that. ”

You break the chest of the fleeing mercenary, and John narrows his eyes. Those who start falling away in the chaos. It looked very suspicious.

“Karamaf. I'm going after him. Let's go.”

“Sir Johann. I'll help you! Come with me! ”

Grrr.

I couldn't understand exactly what Karamaf was saying, but I felt like I was saying something roughly, 'That Elf is annoying.'

The escort mercenaries retreat from the battlefield and try to find the next horse to board. But before that, I could see the pursuers from afar.

“There's a chaser! ”

“Some guy... damn it, he's a knight! ”

The mercenaries look at each other. Everyone who runs away from a fight is a mercenary. The important thing is...

He was the one who tied the pursuer's feet.

“Shit!"

Some unlucky ones are picked and left behind and the barons and mercenaries depart. The rest grind their teeth and raise their weapons. Even a knight, as long as he survives and falls off his horse...

John does not stop, but holds the mace. The mercenaries with shields make you look foolish.

Puck!

The mercenaries fall down with a murmur. The mercenaries who received the mace on the shield could not stand up in shock. It was absurd for the mercenaries to try to escape from behind.

“Who taught those idiots how to shield themselves?! ”
