It's still the old rule, the dice roll, and the number jù are partially deleted, and the part that involves spoilers is deleted. The time is 380 (the year of spring dawn) in April, and the location is the border between Karasu and Madara.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

[20:37] * Storytelling Bunny changes the subject to 'Prologue: Daniel's Thief'

[20:38] The gentle wind blows over the meadows, and the afternoon sun warms up a little.

[20:39] As far as the eye can see, the Shiva forest on the border is as quiet as an emerald, with a touching touch of deep green.

[20:42] The town has left only a faint arc at the end of the horizon, and only curling smoke can prove that the harbor is in the north of the store. You and the patrol slowly make their way down the country road.

[20:44] This is not the first time you've patrolled this road, as the borders of the Shiva Forest are bred with countless smugglers and robbers. Occasionally, there are even the spirits of the undead of Madara who invade the territory of the kingdom.

[20:45] But in the past Mr. Harris would ride his horse and lead you personally. Today is a little special, this is the first time you have led a team trip since you were promoted to captain.

[20:46] You sit on your horse, and your chainmail makes a bumpy noise. You have carefully examined your weapons before you set out, the short spear is in the leather bag behind you, and the giant scythe is also hanging from the saddle, and everything is reassuring.

[20:48] Behind you are Austen and Owen, those two young men who don't have much energy. You know that their family is a merchant in the port, and most of them are sent to the garrison because the elders can't stand the fact that they are out and about all day.

[20:48] But it's okay, at least they're obedient to your orders.

[20:49] The resourceful Henrietta rides beside you, and from time to time he observes the border of the forest with a telescope - but he doesn't say much.

[20:50] Naturally, the striker was Rodney, the youngest son of a blacksmith who did not inherit his father's career, but was bent on doing something great in the garrison. But in fact, until now, even you have not seen what the so-called big thing is.

[20:51] Dealing with smugglers is enough to make you uncomfortable.

[20:52] Five young men, as usual, walked slowly into the forest that was both strange and familiar. "It's time to enter the forest." At this time, Henrietta suddenly said.

[20:53] He looks back at you, he's the typical Cardire guy with gray-blue eyes.

[20:53] "Huh? ”

[20:54] *Kiyuka strokes her hair and looks down at her clothes

[20:54] "Don't look around, big sister," Owen said with a grin in the back, "Boss is asking you to have a say, is it the captain?" ”

[20:55] Henrietta glared at him. This is a handsome young man, and he also contains enough calmness in him. In fact, you know he's a better fit for the captaincy than you. But he voluntarily relinquished that position.

[20:57] "Oh! Oh!! Cheer up, and beware of poachers and robbers and the undead, those guys are a nuisance! ”

[20:57] "By the way, and beware of wild wolves, but if we don't have a pack, I think we'll be fine!" ”

[20:58] Before you could finish your sentence, you heard the two nasty ghosts, Owen and Austin, laugh together.

[20:58] "All in all! Don't be lazy now! Owen and Austin-kun! And Rodney should also pay attention to the surrounding situation! Don't rush at it! ”

[20:58] "Don't worry, big sister! Rodney pat his chest and assure you.

[20:59] "I promise to listen to orders. ”

[20:59] * Kiyuka thought about it, Mr. Harris probably said this before.

[20:59] You think that sounds familiar, so that's what he said to Mr. Harris last time.

[20:59] But the other day he was punished for throwing his sword 10,000 times for the same reason.

[21:00] "Then I'm really sorry for you." Henrietta, please bear more of them."

[21:00]* Kiyoka said to Henrietta with some embarrassment

[21:00] Only Henry Eck nodded at you, "I know, no problem. ”

[21:01] So ten minutes later, you slowly entered the forest.

[21:01] As usual.

[21:01] After entering the forest, the surroundings became quiet.

[21:02] Only the occasional croaking of birds breaks the silence and comes from a certain direction, which is indeed a bit creepy to the average person.

[21:02] But once you get acquainted with it, you don't feel so scared. The temperature in the forest is a bit cooler than outside, and it is said that it is due to its proximity to the Black Forest.

[21:02] * Kiyuka sat down on her horse very seriously, scanning her surroundings carefully and carefully

[21:03] So the Skiva forest is not safe.

[21:03] Henrietta rides alongside you and helps you keep an eye on the other side.

[21:04] It was the rule that you were to go some distance along the edge of the forest, past three outposts - which were not manned - and then you would finish your day's patrol.

[21:04] Because the forest becomes deadly after dark, even smugglers mostly choose this time to join at the border.

[21:06] All of a sudden, you hear a soft sound on the edge of the forest.

[21:06] "Huh? Be careful! ”

[21:06] That kind of sound is usually produced by some animal through the bushes.

[21:07] But in this forest, that's already a red flag.

[21:07] "Looks like there's going on over there"

[21:07] Henry Eck apparently heard it too, and he drew his sword as soon as he could.

[21:07] Only Owen and Rodney don't know anything about it.

[21:07] * Kiyuka pulls out her spear

[21:08] "I smell it too," Rodney said, sniffing his nose, you know his sense of smell is particularly sensitive: "It smells like the undead, a rancid stench." ”

[21:08] * Kiyuka stares in the direction of the vocalization, ready to throw

[21:08] "O undead! ”

[21:08] * Kiyuka hangs the spear back from her waist and replaces it with a huge scythe behind her back

[21:08] "I'll go and see, you wait for my news." ”

[21:08] Rodney finished speaking, and with a thud he slipped into the bushes in front of him.

[21:08] "Be careful. ”

[21:08] didn't even give you time to react.

[21:09] Henry Eck looks at you and seems to want to say something but can't say it in the end.

[21:09] "Huh? I said don't rush headlong! ”

[21:09] "Remind him next time......"

[21:09] He sighed.

[21:10] "Haha, that guy has no brains. Rodney laughed, "Mr. Harris didn't teach him another lesson. ”

[21:10] "It's useless, big sister, you should mourn and change." ”

[21:10] Owen says the same.

[21:10] Suddenly you hear a whistle.

[21:10] "Well, don't listen to me every time, don't be giggling!" There may be undead nearby! ”

[21:10] "Huh? ”

[21:11] "Big sister, come here! I found something! ”

[21:11]* Kiyuka rolls over and dismounts and picks up the scythe

[21:11] "There must be a terrible case! ”

[21:11] "Oh! Oh! Attention everyone"

[21:11] Rodney's voice was so loud that it almost shook the forest to a layer of leaves.

[21:11] Henrietta also rolls over and dismounts with you.

[21:12] Next up are two guys giggling.

[21:12] Everyone has their swords in their hands.

[21:12]* Kiyuka moves towards the other side where Rodney is talking

[21:12] The others followed you through the bushes as well.

[21:12] Soon, you push back the layers of leaves. A dilapidated carriage comes into view.

[21:13] "Huh? What did you find? ”

[21:13] * Kiyuka looked at the carriage

[21:13] It was a horse-drawn carriage, and half of the canopy was gone, and the goods on it were scattered on the ground. The boxes were scattered everywhere, but they were empty.

[21:14] The one pulling the cart was supposed to be two horses, but now there was only one left, and they fell to the ground, and the bodies were half decomposed.

[21:14] Flies buzz around the horse's carcass.

[21:14] "Is it a smuggler's carriage or a regular merchant's carriage?" ”

[21:14] The stench of rancid comes from the corpses as well.

[21:15] * Kiyuka wrinkles her nose and asks Rodney, who discovered this place first

[21:15] "I don't know, why don't you take a look, Captain?" ”

[21:15] This question apparently stumped Rodney.

[21:15] "Hmm"

[21:16] "Let's see what causes this! ”

[21:16] * Kiyuka thought about it and realized that she didn't recognize it either

[21:16] "This is the merchant's carriage. ”

[21:16] Henrietta sighed and replied.

[21:17] You hear Owen and Austin laughing again in the back, but not too loudly.

[21:17] "Well, thank you very much, there are more chambers of commerce on the border, and people can't remember it"

[21:17]* Kiyuka whispered thanks as she walked over to check on the horse's wounds

[21:17] "It's okay. Henrietta shook her head.

[21:21] "Well, it doesn't look like a wild beast did it, it looks like it was deliberate. ”

[21:21] You feel Henrietta poke your elbow in the back of you.

[21:21] "Huh? ”

[21:22] * Kiyoka looked back at Henrietta

[21:22] He stands behind Austin and Owen and writes a word with his hand in front of you: arrow wounds.

[21:22] "Well, is this a premeditated ambush? ”

[21:23] Henrietta nodded. Then you point to the horse's head, and you notice that there is a half-broken arrow there, which has been ignored because it is too inconspicuous.

[21:23] Then you notice that the other half of the broken feathered arrows are scattered not far away.

[21:24] * Kiyuka walked over to the empty crate and crouched down next to the crate and looked around at the ground

[21:25] You have found many footprints.

[21:25] You find that these footprints are mainly scattered around the carriage, in different shades.

[21:25] But the size is only the size of the palm of an ordinary person's hand, which suggests two possibilities.

[21:26] Either the perpetrators were human beings or other humanoid children.

[21:26] Either it's a smaller race - as far as you know, halflings, goblins, or kobolds are all one of the possibilities.

[21:26] You also find out.

[21:27] The shallower footprints are from the outside in, and the deeper footprints are from the inside out.

[21:27] Are you going to trace these deeper footprints?

[21:27] "Hmm"

[21:27] "Did you find anything? Henrietta knew that you were good at tracking, and asked specifically, "Captain?" ”

[21:28] "Did you find anything? ”

[21:28] "Captain? ”

[21:28] "Look here, it looks like a bunch of goblins or kobolds or something like that. ”

[21:28] You hear Austen and Owen in the back learning Henrietta's tone.

[21:28] "Wow wow, Captain is amazing! ”

[21:28] Owen applauded.

[21:28] Startling a flock of crows.

[21:28] "And then they moved the goods they got here in that direction. ”

[21:29] "Good! Rodney raised his sword: "Let's chase it!" ”

[21:29] "Well, and Owen is a little quieter, this is not our territory"

[21:29] And with that he was ready to go in that direction.

[21:29] "It would be very troublesome if the wolves or other guys heard about it. ”

[21:29] "It's only afternoon, big sister. Owen shrugged.

[21:30] "Smugglers and robbers are not divided into morning and afternoon, they only come by day and night~"

[21:30]* Kiyoka pats Owen on the shoulder

[21:30] You're tapping Owen on the shoulder.

[21:31] With a bang, Rodney was already in the jungle.

[21:31] "Look at what else is noteworthy in the carriage. Wait a minute! You're waiting for me!! ”

[21:31] "I'll go after him." ”

[21:31] Henrietta shakes her head and says to you.

[21:31] "Ahhh Rodney, you don't know where you're going!!! ”

[21:31] * Kiyuka covers her forehead

[21:31] "Then please"

[21:32] He nods at you and then gets into it too.

[21:32] So what are your next moves?

[21:33] * Kiyoka calls Owen and Austin to examine the wreckage of the carriage

[21:33] * Kiyoka then led the horse to Rodney and Henrietta

[21:35] Upon closer inspection, you find that there are some grayish fragments in the empty chest.

[21:36] You suspect it's pieces of cargo so collect them as well.

[21:36] "Owen came to see what this is. ”

[21:36] "Huh? ”

[21:36] * Kiyoka gives a little to Owen

[21:36] Owen was slightly stunned: "The eldest sister will actually let me help, the sun is coming out in the west." ”

[21:36] "Your family is also a merchant family! You can still recognize some of the goods or something."

[21:37] He took it and looked at it, "What is this, such a small piece, I don't know." ”

[21:37] "Anyway, let's check it out and go after Henry, so let's take it back"

[21:37] And then give it back to you.

[21:38]* Kiyoka took it and put it away, and then called the two of them to lead the horse and chase after Henry, and they went

[21:38] "It's annoying to chase after you again." Austin couldn't help but complain: "I'm building a chain to Mr. Harris and putting a chain on Rodney Jr." ”

[21:38] "Make it of iron." ”

[21:38] "So that you can take the eldest sister by the head." ”

[21:39] "Oh, that's not good! ”

[21:39] But Austen apparently thinks he's a brilliant idea, and you're just complaining and moving forward.

[21:39] "Although I spent most of my time chasing Mr. Harris when I was on patrol."

[21:39] Are you going to follow the footsteps of those two?

[21:41] You follow the trails left by Henrietta and Rodney in the forest, and you soon find that they are heading in the direction of the next outpost.

[21:42] "Huh? What's going on with this? ”

[21:42] * Kiyuka thought for a moment and continued on her way

[21:42] After walking like this for half an hour, you estimate that you are almost at the next outpost. The bushes in front of you suddenly parted with a thud, and then a hand covered your mouth.

[21:43] It was Henrietta, the young man who motioned with his eyes to stop talking.

[21:43] Then he lets go of your hand.

[21:43] "Be quiet," he lowers his voice and says to you, "There is a situation ahead. ”

[21:43] "Why did it take so long for you to come?" ”

[21:44] "Outpost? I checked the wreckage inside the carriage box."

[21:44] "And then I followed your tracks"

[21:44] *Kiyuka said in a low voice

[21:44] "What about Rodney? ”

[21:45] "He was in front. ”

[21:45] "Come here. ”

[21:45] He looks at you and makes a small gesture.

[21:45] Then he lowered his body in front and burrowed into the bushes.

[21:45] "Goblins or kobolds? ”

[21:46] He did not answer, but made a gesture to you, motioning for you to come over.

[21:46]* Kiyuka lowered her figure and followed suit

[21:48] You follow Henrietta through a small hornbeam forest and find Rodney lying on a small dirt slope in front of you. You're familiar with the dirt slope, because below it is the outpost where you usually rest.

[21:49] Rodney is holding a telescope and looking at something down there.

[21:49] * Kiyuka slowly crawled over

[21:49] You look over and you realize that this guy is looking at the outpost below. But it's a little different from the usual days, and there's something more in the outpost.

[21:50] The so-called outpost is a lonely hut in the forest, but it has now been half demolished. There's a bonfire in front of the cabin, and a man in a blood-red mage robe has his back to you, roasting something on it.

[21:50] And around him, there are quite a few monsters that you have never seen before.

[21:51] The monsters looked a bit like human children, but they were unclothed, they were red, with little wings and horns, and a little tail.

[21:51] You count it, and there are three heads.

[21:51] They were gathered around the mage.

[21:52] And directly across from the mage, there was a man dressed as a knight in black armor, wiping his sword.

[21:53] "Ah, Captain, you're here. ”

[21:53] As soon as Rodney saw you, he immediately exclaimed.

[21:53] * Kiyuka made a silent gesture to him

[21:53] Henrietta glared at him at once.

[21:54] He was startled - and then he stopped.

[21:54] You look down - it's okay, it's far away, and they don't seem to see anything out of the ordinary.

[21:54] * Kiyoka sues sù Henry, and tells Owen to shut them too

[21:54] The two shrugged.

[21:55] "Captain, are we going to kill them?" Rodney hurriedly said to you with a mouth shape: "It's disgusting, those guys must be big villains!" ”

[21:55] He looks at you with some eagerness.

[21:55] "Stop, don't go"

[21:56] "This group is completely different from the robbers and smugglers we have met before"

[21:56] You see Henrietta holding out her hand to Rodney, and the muscular man frozes for a moment before he reacts and hands the telescope back to him.

[21:56] * Kiyuka said with a mouth shape

[21:56] He nodded.

[21:56] "I think so too. He hands you the binoculars: "You'd better take a look first." ”

[21:57] "Well, I've never seen those three strange creatures before. ”

[21:57]* Kiyuka took the telescope and looked down

[21:57] The field of view zooms in a bit.

[21:58] You can see clearly that the mage is concentrating on roasting a hand, which seems to be human.

[21:58]“”

[21:58] And not far from him, the mutilated body of a man dressed as a merchant was still lying there.

[21:58] You force your nausea and look away a little.

[21:58] And then you find that there are still three people tied up in the house that has been demolished.

[21:58] Among them are two women, one boy.

[21:59] But they were apparently frightened.

[22:01] * Kiyo Kara pulled Henry

[22:01]* Kiyuka's face is a little pale, and she looks very bad

[22:02] Henrietta looks at you as if asking what you think.

[22:02] "There were 3 civilians, who were supposed to be the family members of the carriage that was smashed. ”

[22:02] "But the group is very difficult to deal with again"

[22:03] "Theoretically, we should go back the way we came and report back to Mr. Harris. ”

[22:03] "But you can't leave that crowd of civilians behind"

[22:03] "So, you want to save them? ”

[22:04] He asked.

[22:04] "How about having a team member go back and report and then we go and try it?" ”

[22:05] "It's not good to disperse your forces at this time. ”

[22:05] He shook his head.

[22:05] "If you want to go up, go up together." ”

[22:06] Rodney nodded vigorously.

[22:06] Owen and Austin nod at you as well.

[22:06] "But if the other side is strong and we can't run, at least someone will be able to inform Mr. Harris about the situation." ”

[22:06] "Rest assured, if we die, Mr. Harris will know what's going on here. Owen replied grinningly.

[22:07] "But he doesn't know what the opponent is. ”

[22:08] "What's that business with us? Austin said dissatisfiedly, "We can't leave you to fight, will Rodney go?" ”

[22:08] "Finally, the boss will leave you sister-in-law - wow," he slapped on the head, "Henrietta won't go anyway, don't believe you ask him." ”

[22:08] Everybody is looking at you.

[22:09] "Ahhh We don't care!! ”

[22:10] "Then all beware, act covertly, preferably with the first blow to knock out that mage"

[22:10] "Understood! ”

[22:10] "No problem! ”

[22:10] "But speaking of which, the worst of our concealment skills here seems to be you, the eldest sister. ”

[22:11] "Woo woo don't say it"

[22:11] Owen suddenly said, "You don't seem to be as good as Rodney in the tactics class. ”

[22:11] Rodney laughed.

[22:11] "So what do we do?" Austin asked, "Touch them and them?" ”

[22:12] "Woo, touch it, at a certain distance I'll charge over and disturb them first, and then you'll take advantage of the chaos to touch the mage?" ”

[22:12]* Kiyuka habitually looked at Henry on the side

[22:13] "Do you see that they have bows? ”

[22:13] Henrietta asks calmly.

[22:13] * Kiyuka recalled

[22:14] "No. ”

[22:14] "But if you're a mage, you should be able to use some spells, right?" ”

[22:14] "But the merchant's horse was shot and died." ”

[22:14] Henrietta said.

[22:14] "So there are sentinels near them?" ”

[22:15] "Hit the horse's head and kill with an arrow." ”

[22:15] "That's not what a mage or any other amateur soldier can do. ”

[22:15] He gives you an analysis.

[22:15] "Still a very good sentinel? ”

[22:15] and nodded to you.

[22:15] "At least one professional archer. ”

[22:16] "If you want to fight-"

[22:16] "We have to find him first." ”

[22:16] "So we have to find the archer first?" ”

[22:16] "Really? ”

[22:16] He nods at you.

[22:17] "They must have been deployed in the direction of our path, right?" Or is it a blind spot that mages and knights can't see? ”

[22:17] "Look through a telescope first. ”

[22:18] "Yes. ”

[22:20]* Kiyoka takes the binoculars and tries to find the traces left by the other party to deduce where they are

[22:21] You follow the direction of the path you came from, the mages and knights look for the blind spots. Soon a range was settled, an ancient tree with thick branches, and it was a very good hiding place.

[22:21] And it is believed that on the trunk of the tree, the view will also be very open.

[22:21] But you can't be sure where the other person is.

[22:22] * Kiyoka hands the telescope to Henry

[22:22] * Kiyoka points out to him where he has found

[22:22] He took the binoculars and looked at them.

[22:22] "I think the biggest possibility should be to hide on that"

[22:22] "Yes. ”

[22:23] "But I can't tell where to hide"

[22:23] "We can go around behind that tree," he replied after a moment's thought, calling your nickname, "Kiyoka." ”

[22:24] "Can you catch a little animal? ”

[22:24] "Hmm"

[22:24] "I'll try"

[22:24] "Well, we are waiting for you here. ”

[22:25] * Kiyuka crawled backwards and retreated, trying to catch some critters

[22:25] It took you a while and you ended up squirrelling down with a stone.

[22:26] * Kiyuka climbed up again with the squirrel's tail in her hand

[22:26] "Is this okay? ”

[22:26] "Yes. ”

[22:26] "Let's go over. ”

[22:26] He motioned for you to take the lead.

[22:26] "If you want to hide, I think I'm hanging"

[22:27]* Kiyuka mutters a few words and then takes the lead and walks behind the trees

[22:27] In order to avoid exposure, you carefully go a little farther around. And get close enough to stop.

[22:28] This direction is exactly behind the tree, to the west of the outpost. From here, there was a quiet place in the dark green canopy of the trees, and the man was either not on it, or he was extremely clever at concealing his feet.

[22:29] * Kiyoka asks Henry with a mouth shape

[22:29] "Throw that little squirrel out?" ”

[22:29] He gives you an appreciative look and a nod of encouragement.

[22:29] "The eldest sister has also become wiser. Owen said to Austin with a mouth shape.

[22:29] "We die without regrets." That's Austin's answer.

[22:30] * Kiyoka carefully let the little squirrel out towards the side of the tree

[22:30] With a whoosh, the little thing rushed out.

[22:31] * Kiyoka stares carefully at the tree

[22:31] At that moment, you see a slight movement in the canopy. You are an archer wrapped in leaves, cloaked in green cloak, and you raise his bow slightly, and you see him as soon as he moves.

[22:31] But when he saw the squirrel, he withdrew his hand.

[22:32] This guy was very alert, he waited a little while, and he actually changed his position again. You see him climb onto another trunk.

[22:32] And then stopped there.

[22:32] * Kiyoka said to Henry with a mouth shape "The archer found it, on the trunk over there"

[22:33] He thought about it for a moment.

[22:33] "How close do you have to be to be sure to hit him?" He asked.

[22:34] "I can do it here. Owen glanced over there and replied.

[22:34] * Kiyuka makes a 20-foot gesture

[22:35] "I'm going to go a little bit over. Austin shook her head.

[22:35] Henrietta thought for a moment.

[22:36] "Kiyoka, you lean as close as you can. ”

[22:36] "I'm covering for you. ”

[22:36] "Let Owen and Austin shoot first. ”

[22:36] "If he hadn't died, you would have rushed up and shot him as soon as possible. ”

[22:36] "We may only have one chance. ”

[22:36] "Is that okay? ”

[22:36] He looked up and this is the first time you have seen him say so much.

[22:36] "It's not too much of a problem to understand! ”

[22:37] "That's good. ”

[22:37] * Kiyuka hangs the scythe back behind her back and takes down a spear

[22:37]* Kiyuka began to crawl as far as she could, towards an undetectable position

[22:37] Henrietta lifted some of her body and gestured to Austin and Owen. Then look back at you and Rodney: "Let's go." ”

[22:38] In order to get a charge to the firing range, you have to crawl to at least sixty feet.

[22:39] Henrietta and Rodney follow you on either side.

[22:40] You look nervously at the archer in the canopy, and for a moment you notice him move slightly. Scared you to stop immediately.

[22:41] But luckily, he didn't look back until you climbed to your predetermined position in a sweat.

[22:41] You turn your head with a flushed face and see Henrietta giving you a thumbs up.

[22:42] And that's when you see him turn his head and make a gesture to the two people in the back.

[22:42] *Kiyuka takes a deep breath

[22:42] * Kiyuka turns her head to stare at her target in the tree

[22:42] You hear the soft sound of four bowstrings vibrating.

[22:43] You don't know how many arrows you hit, but the guy obviously snorted, and one of the feathered arrows missed, and flew under the trunk.

[22:43] Hit another tree with a chopping sound.

[22:44] You see the guy tumbling over from the trunk of a tree.

[22:44] And then it was motionless.

[22:45] But the sound of the weight falling on the ground clearly alarmed the outpost.

[22:45] You see the mage and the knight stand up and look this way.

[22:53]* Kiyuka ran to the side of the tree and threw the spear into a scythe, then held the scythe in front of him

[22:54] Henrietta seems to want to catch you but doesn't. He could only shake his head, draw his sword and follow.

[22:54] Rodney was already too excited to help himself, and rushed up with an axe in both hands.

[22:59] "Cover us! Owen, Austin! Henry Ek came to you, raised his sword to your side, and shouted at the same time.

[23:00] "Be careful! Rodney, don't rush too much! ”

[23:00] Your presence obviously made the mage and the black knight froze for a moment, but they understood it all when they saw your uniform. The knight immediately drew his sword, and the mage ordered the monsters around him to surround him.

[23:04] Owen heard Henrietta's shout, and stood up first, raised his bow and aimed at the mage.

[23:04] "Die, scoundrel! ”

[23:05] You see him shoot an arrow into the mage's shoulder.

[23:06] And Henrietta looks left and right and says to you, "Let's go together, Kiyoka!" ”

[23:06] The knight stood directly in front of the mage.

[23:06] "Naturally! ”

[23:08] And Rodney rushed up with a 'Oooo You know that the old Rodneys moved from Fort Kestair, and are said to be natives of the area where they lived, with barbarian blood in them.

[23:08] But this rumor became a reality at this moment.

[23:08] You see this guy has knotted muscles, his eyes glow red, his body seems to be bigger, and the whole person rushes up like a bull in heat.

[23:08] "Whew, that idiot! ”

[23:09] He lunged straight between the three monsters and picked up the great axe.

[23:10] He cut off the head of one monster and then smashed the axe into the chest of the second monster.

[23:10] The monster was smashed and flew out, but it wasn't dead, you were enough to get its wound not as severe as you imagined, just chirping and screaming in mid-air.

[23:11] "Oooo ”

[23:12] The mage was clearly frightened, and hurriedly took a step back, then picked up the spell book in his hand and recited the words.

[23:13] And then all of a sudden, a puff of smoke rose from the ground.

[23:14] The smoke soon spreads.

[23:14] enveloped the entire outpost along with Rodney.

[23:14] "Oh no! ”

[23:14] You hear Austin screaming in the back.

[23:15] "Captain, I can't handle that Rodney guy anymore! ”

[23:15] He exclaimed in exasperation and then let go of the bowstring, "Martha bless! ”

[23:15] Two feathered arrows staggered between you and shot into the smoke.

[23:17] You hear a scream of rage coming from the mist.

[23:17] And then the fog dispersed.

[23:17] And then you see the mage holding his eye socket and a feathered arrow on his back and falling.

[23:17] As soon as he fell, the little monsters ceased to serve him. Immediately screamed and prepared to scatter and fly away.

[23:18] "Hah! ”

[23:18] Austin screams excitedly.

[23:18] "Austen, when did you become so good at archery? ”

[23:18]* Kiyuka asked aloud as she glanced at the black-armored knight

[23:19] "Haha, it's like it today, it's like it every day! ”

[23:19] Austen danced with excitement.

[23:19] "Cut! ”

[23:19] Owen gave Yan zhòng the disdain shì.

[23:20] "So! I'm on! ”

[23:20]* Kiyuka begins to charge towards the Black Knight

[23:21] The Black Knight raises his sword and tries to block your attack, but you pick his sword away.

[23:24]* Kiyuka's scythe slashes down the Black Knight's shoulders with a momentum

[23:24] "Hah! ”

[23:24] With a bang, your sword completely shatters his armor and makes a deep opening there.

[23:24] * Kiyuka drank at the same time

[23:24] The knight snorted and stepped back.

[23:25] And Henrietta took advantage of the situation to pass you by, and stabbed the knight with a sword.

[23:25] His sword was almost ready to catch the knight's retreat, and slashed at the knight's throat.

[23:26] Then a sword pierced through the crack in the armor of his neck.

[23:26] You see a fountain of blood coming out from under the knight's neck.

[23:26] squirted the young man all over.

[23:26] But he pushed forward, and the black knight was pushed to the ground.

[23:26] "Pretty! ”

[23:27] Henry Eck immediately stopped and held his sword to the ground and gasped.

[23:27] And then you realize that the battle was over in an instant.

[23:27] "Hah! ”

[23:27] "Perfect! ”

[23:27] Austin and Owen high-five each other in the back.

[23:27] Henrietta straightens up, looks at you covered in blood, and smiles at you slightly.

[23:27] "Check the battlefield, captain. ”

[23:27] "Be aware of your surroundings, stay alert, clean up the battlefield"

[23:28] * Kiyuka handed her handkerchief to Henry

[23:28] "Well, please wipe it off. ”

[23:28] "Oooo "Rodney immediately obeyed your orders loudly, and ran around to the playground, looking like he had no end of energy—but he was about to burn out.

[23:28] "Thank you. ”

[23:28] * Kiyuka walked over to the women and children who were being tied up

[23:28] He smiles at you, takes the handkerchief and wipes his forehead and face.

[23:29] The hostages are in a coma.

[23:29] * Kiyoka helps them unbind

[23:29] "Ouch. ”

[23:29] "Huh? ”

[23:29] You hear Austin's voice coming from behind.

[23:30] "This knight's armor is good. ”

[23:30] "What's the matter? ”

[23:30] "I was slashed by my eldest sister's sword. ”

[23:30] "This is real plate armor. ”

[23:30] "The eldest sister is really a loser. ”

[23:30] "Who cares about this when they're fighting!!!" ”

[23:30] Owen nodded.

[23:30] "But it still works. ”

[23:30] Austen judged again.

[23:31] "It's not in good condition, it's all broken like this." ”

[23:31] "Let's take inventory! Then we sent the hostages back. ”

[23:31] Owen smiled.

[23:31] You see him draw the knight's sword.

[23:31] And then a soft grunt.

[23:31] "This sword seems familiar. ”

[23:31] "Big sister's head. ”

[23:31] "Come to my house for dinner in the evening!" ”

[23:31] "Huh? ”

[23:31] * Kiyuka tilted her head and walked over

[23:31] "Well, look. ”

[23:31] "I'll see"

[23:31] He hands you the sword.

[23:32] * Kiyuka took the sword and looked at it carefully

[23:32] It is indeed a sword that you are familiar with.

[23:32] Thirty-two years old, with the mark of ivy on the sword, commemorating the victory in the battle of the Golan-Elsen plateau.

[23:32] When His Majesty changed the system of cavalry swords, changing the length of the sword from two arms to one and a half arms, and the brass ornaments on the gauntlets were replaced with ordinary iron flowers, this was to save costs to accommodate the 'November War', which was getting longer and longer.

[23:32] It was a cavalry sword.

[23:33] But the point is that that sword is engraved with a name that you will never forget.

[23:33] Hubbard Sama.

[23:33] Your father's name.
