"You kid, don't do anything stupid!" Although Glenn didn't look back, he said with a rather serious face as if he could see Edward's expression.

Edward, who lowered his head, didn't see Glenn's expression now, but the long-term tacit understanding still allowed Edward to understand how serious Glenn's words were now.

"I won't." Edward sighed and took his hand back.

"That's good." Glenn breathed a sigh of relief, but he thought about it for a moment and said again, "You haven't rested for a day and a night, so you should be tired." I'm here on top, so you can go down and rest for a while. ”

Considering that he couldn't help much here, Edward nodded silently and slowly walked down the wall.

Glenn suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation, and he subconsciously turned his head to see a gray-robed Grim Reaper following Edward's side.

Seeing that Glenn seemed to notice his presence, the Grim Reaper waved his hand at Glenn. It may have turned out that the joints were loose, and half of the hand, which was left with only bones, flew out like that.

Seeing that the Grim Reaper dropped the scythe in his hand and ran to find his hand in a panic, Glenn blinked a little speechlessly.

If you look closely, there is nothing around Edward, who is a little lonely.

"Am I tired too? I was hallucinating. A self-deprecating smile and forced to hold back the uneasiness in his heart, Glenn continued to shoot arrows at the Magimes.

Edward walked heavily to his bedroom, looking rather tired.

The Demonic Calamity came so quickly that the Unicorn Principality was not ready to resist the Demonic Calamity. Moreover, Edward's two elder brothers had previously led their own legions to "train" in the border area close to the Griffin Dynasty and the Tower of the Nine Rings, and they could not return in a short period of time, so Edward and Glenn could only take their own legions to the top.

And just relying on the little troops that Edward and Glenn have on hand is simply not enough to resist the full-scale invasion of this massive number of middle and low-level demons. In addition to the constant sneak attacks of some high-level demons mixed in the middle and low-level demon troops. The troops under the command of Glenn and Edward, who were losing ground one after another, not only suffered heavy casualties, but their morale was already extremely low.

Fortunately, due to the existence of the miraculous lake, the Holy Rain City, which was expanded into a city to protect the lake, has stockpiled quite sufficient strategic materials. These materials were originally prepared to deal with the invasion of demons and orcs, and all kinds of arrows, swords, armor and other weapons and equipment were sufficient, so the legions under the command of Glenn and Edward were able to hold on until now.

But compared to the abundance of supplies for the soldiers. The supplies for the heroic generals are somewhat insufficient. This makes Edward, who has been through several battles in a row without getting enough rest, now look extremely embarrassed.

In the past, Edward and his guards were grooming him, but now most of Edward's guards have been killed in battle, and those who did not die are seriously injured and are being treated by the priests. So Edward, who didn't pay much attention to his demeanor, simply didn't bother with these trivial matters, and he didn't have time to pay attention to his image anyway, he was busy fighting.

Therefore, in the eyes of the residents of Holy Rain City, Edward, who had not rested for a day and a night, had bloodshot eyes in his eyes, and his originally neat hair and beard were even more messy. Looks like a bum. Although a wound on the left cheek had scabbed, the remaining blood marks made Edward look a little murderous, so passers-by subconsciously avoided him.

Due to the severe damage of the original hero armor, Edward is actually wearing a set of armor of the Unicorn Principality Sword Soldier Species. After this period of hard fighting, this set of armor is already full of potholes, which makes Edward look no different from an ordinary creep except for the hero's cloak behind him.

In addition, Edward, who was in a depressed mood, had put away his heroic aura and kept walking with his head down. This made the residents of Holy Rain City who passed by not see that this person was their current general defending the city, but regarded him as an ordinary soldier.

Tired Edward didn't notice this. Of course, even if he noticed, I'm afraid he wouldn't have taken it to heart.

But perhaps it was because everyone thought of Edward as an ordinary soldier that a little girl suddenly mustered up her courage and suddenly stopped Edward in front of him.

"Huh?" Someone blocked the way, and Edward suddenly burst out with a strong murderous aura. The right hand also subconsciously pulled out his long sword, which was already full of gaps.

However, when the sword was just unsheathed, Edward had already noticed that it was an ordinary little girl who stood in the way. Judging by this height, this little girl should only be five years old. Edward immediately reined in his murderous aura.

Feeling the terrible pressure quickly disappearing, the little girl with a slightly pale face calmed down, and looked up at Edward for some time: "This uncle." Have you seen Lily's dad? ”

"Uh......"

Edward suddenly scratched his head helplessly: "What, little sister, what's your father's name?" ”

"John! Lily's dad is John the Swordsman! A swordsman like an uncle! Seeing that Edward didn't seem to be angry, Lily's voice suddenly rose, "Daddy's swordsmanship is the best in our village!" Even the swordsmen of Holy Rain City can't beat him! ”

Edward immediately remembered a figure, it was obviously just a fifth-order crusader swordsman, but the Holy Rain City swordsman named John had killed an eighth-order great devil and two seventh-order abyss lords in that counterattack, and finally fell under the beheading swords of the abyss lords in order to support himself.

Edward suddenly felt a little congested.

However, what the little girl said next made him feel even more guilty.

"Yesterday was Mom's death day, and Dad and Lily agreed that they would go to see Mom together. But until now, Lily didn't see her father. The little girl pouted, "Daddy's words always don't count, and Anne is very angry!" The consequences are severe! ”

"Uh...... This one. I...... I'm stationed on the other side, and I don't know what happened to Anne's father. Subconsciously avoiding the little girl's clear eyes, Edward looked at the ground and said.

He couldn't tell Anne the truth, especially after knowing that Anne had already lost her mother.

“…… That's right. The little girl was visibly disappointed, but she quickly picked herself up, "It's okay. Dad has made an appointment with Anne, and he will definitely come back to pick her up! Anne will keep waiting! ”

Looking at the little girl who clenched her little fists, Edward's eyes were a little red, he gritted his teeth and stretched out his right hand to caress the little girl's little head, but his left hand was clenched tightly, and blood slowly oozed from between his fingers.

Looking at Edward for some unknown reasons, the little girl avoided Edward's right hand, and then said with a smile: "Ah, uncle, you must be tired!" Anne won't bother you. Rest well! ”

Without waiting for Edward to reply, the little girl scurried away.

Watching the little girl fade away, Edward slowly lowered his head and walked silently to his room.

Entering the room and closing the door, Edward leaned his back against the door, two lines of tears slowly flowing down his face.

"Damn it...... Demons! ”

Looking at the ceiling, Edward said hatefully.

Calmed down. When he opened his eyes again, Edward's eyes were full of determination.

I made a basin of water. Edward took off the short sword from his waist and quickly shaved himself with it. When it came into contact with the blood stains on Edward's face, a faint red light suddenly emitted from the short sword, and it flashed away.

Edward, who was carefully shaving, didn't notice this. After shaving his beard, he briefly brushed himself with water, and then took out a space bag from his arms.

Judging by the pattern above. This very dilapidated space bag is only the smallest of the kind, with only about a cubic meter of space inside.

Without any hesitation, Edward took the space bag and poured out a complete set of overlying heavy armor and a longsword.

Both the heavy armor and the sword have some conspicuous unicorn-shaped family insignia, which is obviously a special heroic equipment for the family members of the unicorn Grand Duke.

What's more. This full-covered heavy armor is a woman's type.

That's right, this is the heroic armor that Edward wore when he pretended to be his sister Elena when he went out on the expedition!

Although it has been many years, this armor has obviously been well maintained, and it looks like new.

Silently taking off the swordsman armor on his body, Edward slowly put on the heavy armor.

The armor didn't fit, but after Edward stuffed a few rags into the gap, it didn't have much effect on Edward's strength.

And compared to the rudimentary swordsman armor, this well-made hero armor is obviously an improvement in Edward's defense.

Stroking his helmet, Edward remembered the time he pretended to be his sister.

After knocking out his sister who didn't have much combat experience by sneak attack, Edward directly put on the armor that his sister Elena hadn't had time to put on, and successfully pretended to be his sister.

Because Edward was relatively thin at the time, he looked a little empty when he put on his sister's armor, so Edward stuffed a lot of linen into the armor, which made him feel unusually stuffy after putting on the armor.

But even so, Edward persevered, and managed to defeat the enemy with the rabble gathered by his sister.

And now, with the national crisis at hand, my sister in the capital city of Utor may have once again recruited a large army. However, his own family knew his own affairs, and Edward knew very well that his stupid sister did not have any talent for commanding at all.

So in order to prevent his sister's reputation as the "flower of unicorns" from being damaged, Edward decided to repel the demons before his sister sent out his troops!

Using this excuse to convince himself, Edward resolutely put on his helmet.

………… I'm the dividing line for men and women............

In the garrison of the ground-walking dragoons, a few wails and dragon roars could be heard from time to time.

Due to the heavy damage in the battle between the eighth-order demons and the seventh-order abyssal demons, and the cavalry could not help much during the defense of the city, the scarred earth-walking dragoons were left idle by Edward and Glenn.

If the Holy Rain City could not be defended, Edward and Glenn would probably need to rely on the ground-walking dragoons to break through, so the priests immediately treated the injured ground-walking dragons and cavalry.

But the cavalrymen who are well-armed are okay, as long as they are treated with divine arts, and then apply all kinds of wound medicine bought from the Oaks Kingdom, they basically only need to recuperate.

But the cavalrymen who lost their arms and legs were in some trouble, and they were treated in time, and the pain of losing their hands and feet still made these soldiers cry and be weak like children.

The screams of these wounded soldiers would demoralize the other Dragoons, so Edward had to separate the wounded soldiers from the rest of the soldiers.

However, at this moment, an officer came to the wounded barracks and gathered the wounded soldiers.

"Can you still move? If you can, follow me! The officer was the least wounded of Edward's bodyguards, and he yelled at the wounded soldiers with a straight face. Like these wounded soldiers who were missing arms and legs, this guard also lost an arm, but now there was no trace of sadness on his face, but a little excitement.

The wounded soldiers looked at each other, and soon realized what was going on, and they all cheered up.

Those who were wailing closed their mouths, those who were silently weeping wiped away their tears, and the wounded soldiers quickly gathered and supported each other behind the guard.

Nodding, the guard didn't speak, and walked ahead with a straight face.

Following the squad leader, the wounded soldiers quickly came to the training ground. And in the training ground, the other ground-walking dragoons were already waiting there.

When they saw the figure wearing women's heavy armor standing on the high platform in the corner of the training ground, the wounded soldiers' eyes suddenly widened, and then their spirits became high.

The wounded soldiers quickly found their mounts and sat on them with the help of their comrades. Then he joined the other cavalrymen and quietly watched his heroic general.

An invincible general! "Unicorn Flower"! A woman disguises herself as a man and pretends to be Edward, her sister Elena!

The veterans of the Dragoons were the elite who survived the bloom of the "Unicorn Flower", while the recruits grew up listening to the legend of the "Unicorn Flower", although everyone vaguely understood that there was something wrong with the identity of the "Unicorn Flower", but everyone still looked at the figure feverishly.

After all, for the people of the current unicorn principality, the appearance of this "unicorn flower" is no less than the believers of the Church of the Gods seeing the incarnation of the gods descend to earth!

Seeing that the ground-walking dragoons swept away the previous low morale and directly entered a state of full morale, Edward nodded with satisfaction and flicked his cloak: "Follow me!" (To be continued.) )
