Chapter III: Rescue
"Ridiculous fellow, do you understand the meaning of a partner?" Harold brandished his tomahawk to push Miel into a corner, and then roared, "A guy who grew up in the nobility would treat his subordinates as partners, hahaha." ”
Miel kept retreating, and Harold kept attacking like crazy. "Anyone has weaknesses, and the so-called strong people just hide their weaknesses well. Miyle recalled Sony's teachings. Now he couldn't find a way to fight back other than dodge the attack.
The tomahawk slashed down at Miyer, who had no way out, and countless sparks burst out the moment the sword and the tomahawk came into contact. "You have this ability, what a naïve aristocrat. The tomahawk pressed Miel's sword down inch by inch with great force, and just as it was about to be slashed, the longsword leaned sideways and escaped from the attack of the tomahawk, seizing this gap to counterattack, although it hit Harold, but it did not cause much damage.
"I don't know why you hate your partner, but I'm going to take Oshous as a companion away. Miyle took a moment to catch his breath and said to Harold, deliberately accentuating the word 'partner'. The sword in his hand was aimed at his opponent at the same time, and Harold raised his battle axe to meet Miel's attack.
"The power is far above me, slightly faster than him in speed, the people above don't know when they will return, and the place where Osius was held should be deeper. Miyle analyzes the form in front of him. After a brief encounter, Harold once again had the upper hand.
Miyer, who was single-minded, began to lose track of Harold's attack, and just as the tomahawk was about to cut him off, Miel leapt onto the axe. This move had been used countless times on Oshous, and he was already quite proficient, and the long sword swung down towards Harold's head.
Harold didn't show surprise at this point, he gave up his weapon with both hands, and threw several punches with his fist at Miel in the air. Without the strength to support, before he could make any movements, Harold's iron fist fell on him, and the huge force made his body fly several meters away.
"Ahem. Miel stood up and wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, looked at Harold who attacked again, and said, "As a mercenary, why do you hate your partner so much?" After hearing the word 'partner', Harold's body stopped slightly, and after a short period of stunned, he continued to attack Miel, and kept shouting: "Boy, it seems that you don't understand the meaning of partner at all." ”
Harold's offense was quicker, and even Miel began to struggle with his defense. The blood from the wound had stained his clothes red. "It's not that he's getting faster. Miel struggled to his feet with the help of his sword, and looked at Harold, who was also panting, as the attacks of both sides entered a short break.
"Why don't you give up, what else can you do with your tattered body?" Harold looked at Miyle, who was knocked down and kept getting up, as if he saw himself back then.
I remember that I received an escort mission, a mission issued by a caravan. The number of people in the team is not very large, and the remuneration offered by the other party is also quite considerable. Although the difficulty was beyond their level, in the spirit of seeking wealth in danger, the regiment commander did not hesitate to accept this task.
Along the way, they encountered several bands of thieves, all of whom were easily defeated. Just as they were about to reach their destination, one of the largest bands of thieves in the area attacked them. After the commander of the regiment commanded Harold's team to break off, he fled with the caravan into the city.
In the process of counterattacking, Harold's teammates kept falling, and at the same time, he also defeated several times the thieves. By this time, the number of the team had been halved, most of them were wounded, and it was at this time that Harold lost an eye. The crowd held out for two days in a valley, but there was no news of rescue, and the crowd began to despair. Two days was the best time for the main force to come back to save them, and now they realized that they had been abandoned.
The survivors began to go berserk and attacked the thieves, and Harold took advantage of the chaos to flee from the battlefield. A month later, recovering from his wounds, he found the location where the mercenary group was located. After inquiring, I learned that they had successfully escaped at that time, and the caravan had added an objective fee, and also learned that the head of the regiment had disappeared in despair, and that the regimental commander had not sent any rescue at that time, and that the reward that belonged to Harold had also been embezzled by the regimental commander.
The trust that had been established for a long time by the so-called comrades-in-arms, partners, and brothers was instantly shattered. Harold decided to take revenge on the commander who had abandoned them.
Harold finally waited for his chance and beheaded them by the sword while the regimental commander was drunk with a few of his henchmen. Harold was wanted for this, and after several turnarounds, he came to the Earl of Miller to do shady things for him.
"Found you, big brother!" the door to the room was opened, and Joe's familiar voice was heard, and then Oshous untied the rope on his body, and said anxiously: "Big brother, hurry up, Brother Miel is almost overwhelmed!" "Where!" Before asking too much, he moved his numb arm and ran in the direction where the sound of a fight was heard.
"I'm curious why you saved him at the cost of your life. Harold lifted the tomahawk, looked at Miail with complicated eyes, and said, "Maybe you'll be the one who will be abandoned next time." "This time it's to return what he saved me before. The wounds on his body had stopped bleeding, and Miel raised his sword as well as he prepared to fight back.
"Hahaha! Even then, what can you do?" Harold slashed his tomahawk at Miyer's head, sending his sword flying away, leaving a deep scar on Miyer's shoulder.
There was a rush of footsteps in the depths of the passage, and both of them looked around the corner. When Oshous appeared in view, the two had very different expressions. Oshous looked at Miel, who was covered in scars and fell to the ground, casually picked up a long sword on the wall, and shouted at Harold, "You bastard, dare, dare." Excited, he didn't know what to say, and raised his sword and attacked Harold.
At this time, Harold did not expect how Oshous escaped, and his rich combat experience did not slow down his movements, and he immediately fought with the angry Oshous.
"Why did you come back when you had the opportunity to escape, and why?" Harold said more excitedly, and the Tomahawk moved more quickly. Oshous, who was originally wounded, began to be unable to parry, "Miyer, run away!" Oshous said with difficulty in parrying Harold's attack.
"Osius, even if you manage to escape now, you won't have the face to see you after you die. Miel picked up his heavy sword and joined forces with Oshous to attack.
In the face of the disparity in strength, courage and faith seem so weak. Even if the two of them caused damage to Harold, the two of them at this time had no strength to even pick up the long sword.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't expect to drag you down. Oshous tried to stand up, and then said, "Bastard, I will not let you go if you dare to hurt my companion." "Helplessly, the body has no strength, and even when it is lifted by Harold, he can't make any resistance.
"I hope you don't forget it in the future. Harold put down Oshous as he spoke, opened a secret door in the wall, and said to the two men on the ground, "Let's go, it's not worth a few dollars anyway." As he spoke, he walked upward, turning his head from time to time to look at it a few times before disappearing.
Joe, who had been by his side, watched Harold leave and came over to help the two of them. Oshous, who had survived death, showed a surprised expression, turned to Miel and said, "What is the situation?" said as he walked, and he couldn't leave when they returned. Miel stood up and pointed to Oshous' weapon and said, "Take your sword and we'll leave." ”
The three of them walked along the passage for an unknown amount of time, and by this time they had come to a small river outside the city, and Jo left after a brief farewell to them.
"How did you find me. Oshous asked Miel on the side. After a brief explanation, he closed his eyes and began to rest, and after relaxing, the pain from the wound on his body also made him grit his teeth.
Seeing this, Oshous went to the forest and found some herbs, and he was already familiar with the bandaging of external injuries as a naughty man. After a busy moment, Oshous lay down beside Miel.
"Miyle, do you know what happened to that girl? and her grandfather. "What happened today is because of this girl, Oshous hopes she will be safe. "His grandfather has died. Miel told Osius what he had heard in the morning.
"Yes, I wouldn't have let them go if I had known. Oshous clenched his fists and said, "What about the girl? "Bought by a nobleman, just before I came in. Miyle was so exhausted that he didn't want to speak anymore.
"Miyle, how about we go back and save her? she shouldn't have left yet, she must be in the city. Oshous stood up, hoping that his plan would be approved by Miel. Miel leaned against a tree and said to the naïve Oshous, "Although I don't want to hit you, in fact, there is nothing we can do to save people. "There's always a way, right? You're so smart, you'll be able to think of it." "Oshous didn't give up.
Miel shook his head and said, "It's a pity that there is no way, if you have the strength of Sony, we will not be so embarrassed." I still have to do things. Holding the pendant on his chest, he looked at Osius coldly.
Frightened by the cold gaze, Oshous lay down and looked at the sky without saying a word. In this way, the morning sun woke them up.
After rubbing his sleepy eyes a few times, Miyle had already gotten up and freshened up and changed into clean clothes. After last night's incident, the two didn't talk much. After some discussion, the two decided to head towards a nearby village to treat the wound on Miyle's shoulder that had worsened, and to buy some supplies along the way.
"Stop!" a cavalry squad surrounded them.
