The Blood Knight’s Villains

My Villains Chapter 347

59. Gowon (7)

It’s Yuril.

An offering or catalyst to ascend Ulkar to the throne in the name of the Killing King. That is Princess Yuril.

I can’t give you an exact reason. Because it’s just intuition.

However, anyone who had seen the sticky darkness in Ulkar’s eyes would have thought the same thing. Of course, like me, you should know the scenario of the Dark World at least roughly.

Whatever the form, it is a guess close to my conviction that Yuril’s personal problems will have a decisive influence on Ulkar’s corruption.

After making such a decision, I feel like my head is a little twisted.

Let’s be honest.

Why did I go through all kinds of hardships from the South Harbor to the plateau here? What is the motive?

One answer is survival.

One day, the Middle Earth will come to an end. He could have hidden somewhere in a secluded place ahead of this.

But I didn’t want to die helplessly in a terminal period. I wanted to struggle to survive.

okay. The only reason I accepted the burdensome role of being the protagonist of the dark world was to survive.

From this point of view, preventing Prince Ulkar’s corruption is of great value.

The existence that the ‘Dark Lord’ used as his vanguard and trumpeter is Ulkar, the Killing King. What if such a slaughter king hadn’t even been born in the first place?

In addition to omitting the ‘Royal Road’ corresponding to Chapter 6, you will be able to benefit enormously from the second half of the following chapter – the Underworld, the Dark World, and the Chapter.

In addition, the destruction of the Milanol Kingdom can be prevented. Then, we can expect the support of human forces that did not exist in the nuclear power plant.

So what’s really important here?

To defeat the two Elector Counts attacking the plateau? Or securing Princess Yuril, the trigger of corruption?

Shut up and the latter is my judgment.

Being human is originally such a law. It is more painful for my family and friends to get hurt than for the frontier land with no connection to be devastated.

For that reason, my honest feeling is that I want to quit the war and run to the royal capital.

But I can’t.

He believes that saving Yuril is more important than protecting Gowon, but it is difficult to achieve results even if he puts all his energy into it. Just like Ulkar said, you can’t just invade the royal capital where a powerful army lurks.

Because of this, my heart is stuffy and my head is complicated.

Unable to overcome my nervousness, I ran straight to Heila’s tent.

“Heyla. Heyla.”

A large Al-Hrunting at his side with both hands together around his belly button. Did she wear it like this all the time to sleep?

“……trunnion?”

“sorry. Because it is urgent.”

Seeing his pupils quivering under his blinking eyelids, he was taken aback by the midnight visitor.

Like that or not, I asked about the deputy of the church who had a family connection. Also, if you can get his help.

“Ian-Baptiste. A priest who became a representative of the Order after becoming a bishop in the southern kingdom. It will depend on what kind of work it is, but if it is a request from Baluin and Zaharkar, we will cooperate as much as possible.”

“Does that sound trustworthy?”

“huh. I will not risk my life, but I will accept some damage for our sake.”

“Then can I protect someone through that priest?”

“someone?”

“Princess Yuril.”

“Prince Ulkar’s sister?”

“huh. They said that they are now at the St. Thomas Convent, and they said that if they were members of the Order, the line would be reached there as well.”

He did not bother to mention that Yuril was in danger of being assassinated. Hayla didn’t ask questions, whether she noticed this or was just out of curiosity.

“I will write a letter. Maybe you can get the help you want.”

“Whoa, thank you.”

There is no other way to influence the capital, so I think this is the best for now.

When I nodded and got up, Heyla looked up at me with blank eyes, as if she hadn’t woken up.

“…is it over?”

“uh?”

“Is this the end of the business?”

“Ah yes.”

In the dark eyes, resentment, bis, and unreasonable things smeared. I added the words, scratching my eyebrows in apologetic.

“Sorry for waking you up. I won’t be able to see you for a while after I go out in the morning, so I thought I wouldn’t have time if it wasn’t now.”

They decided to join the chase team chasing the remnants of the Bloodmane Mercenary Corps with only eight subordinates who were familiar with horses and Princess Theodora. Since the purpose was to quickly clear the territory, it was convenient to move in small numbers.

Heila, Utequai, and the rest of the men are going to head straight to High Castle, following Count Oth’s main force. The main unit is mostly made up of infantry, so arriving at High Castle will be roughly the same as the pursuit unit.

“…Yes, I understand.”

Heila muttered and took a deep breath, and I left her tent feeling a strange discomfort.

hmm. Is it because of the feeling that the back of the head is sore?

The chasing party numbered a little less than one hundred and fifty.

Well, if it’s a small number, it’s a small number, but it didn’t look very small, maybe because those 150 were all cavalrymen with one extra horse each. As they gathered for the march, the shallow snowfield quickly turned to black mud.

About a hundred of these hundred and fifty are Ulkar’s men.

A total of 15 knights, including Gisela, the great Ankir painter Filter, the birdhawk knight, and twenty or so followers. There are nine wizards, including Master Limond and Master Epos Madaz Rao, and the rest are all guardsmen like Uncle Randel and Andros.

Thirty or so Antrum cavalrymen joined here with the permission of Earl Os. The knights and their attendants gathered from all over the world will be represented by Sir Bran, a young gentleman, and Seto, a nude cavalry officer who has shown off his competence before.

To this, only ten people in my party are added. The members are friendly soldiers such as the veteran Confair and Fritz, four mercenaries with good horsemanship, such as Cavas the poacher and Maccake the spearman, Dylan the night watchman, and Theodora, who joined at Ulkar’s special request.

Preparations had been made two days in advance, such as organizing the crew and loading food and water on the saddles, but it took quite a bit of time to start maneuvering because the crew was only a crew member. Thus, the cavalrymen, who got up around dusk, finished preparing for battle only after the sun was half risen.

“See you at High Castle.”

Atalanta floated up to meet eye level with me on the bicorn. After breaking through the void passage, her telekinesis became more natural, so her levitation was exceptionally stable.

“okay. see you there.”

“Take care of yourself.”

She stroked my hair once and kissed my lips.

It was a bit embarrassing, but luckily it didn’t come to my tongue. Atalanta also seems to care about the eyes of the people around her.

“Are you really not going with Utequai?”

“It is a battle between kingdom and empire. As a warrior of the steppe, it is not enough to intervene, and you cannot even pursue them.” Utequai shrugged and added.

“And I can’t keep up. Wolves get tired quickly.”

“…well, anyone with 200 kilos on their backs will get tired quickly.”

“Haha, that’s right!”

“Take care of the kids. It won’t be a big deal for a while.”

After holding hands with a chuckle, Heila suddenly approached.

“ o O

……Huh!

Puheung-

Bycorn snorted wildly and scratched the ground, eyes slightly tired and turned to him.

The whirlwind of magic in his heart exerted a sophisticated sense of intimidation. Bicon, who had been baring his sharp teeth, turned his head and flicked his tongue.

“…Hayla?”

“See you later.”

“Uh… yes yes. See you at High Castle.”

Heila, who came to the side and looked up at me for a moment, stepped on the stirrups with a swish and stood up. It was the most nimble movement I had ever seen of her.

“Uh.”

Before I could say anything, she reached out and grabbed the plate breastplate by the neck. and kiss.

Leaving behind such a soft touch and sweet scent, Heila coolly turned away.

…and. I ate well in one room.

“depart! depart!”

Just in time, Lord Ankir roared loudly, so I had no choice but to swallow my laughter and hit the reins.
