Dududududu!
Viscount Heder Myers and 10,000 Myers Corps squads crossed the field at a furious pace.
Unstoppable assault.
The whole area was a field, so there were no obstacles.
“Take out the enemies this instant!”
Heder’s voice resonated throughout the battlefield.
“Waaah!”
Soldiers shouted as if they agreed.
The speed of the cavalry started running a little faster.
At that moment.
Puk!
With a dull sound, the calvary that ran out earlier fell out of balance.
Crack.
Soldiers and war horses were also killed at the same time when their neck broke.
“Ahh!”
“Do, Dodge it!”
“Kuugh!”
The soldiers who were following started yelling as they saw the fallen horsemen.
There were those who escaped their impending doom by jumping off lightly or barely avoided, but most of them stumbled or fell out of balance.
Of course, there were those who weren’t able to endure the momentum and died by breaking their neck or waist.
“What! What’s going on?”
Heder started yelling, and a soldier who was looking at the field shouted.
“Ropes! There are ropes set-up sir!”
The horses that were running upfront fell, because of the ropes.
“Damn! What do you mean by ropes!”
Heder frowned and looked at the ground.
Among the short growing grasses he saw a fairly thick rope.
It was not installed throughout the field, but sparsely installed over a certain section.
“They came out earlier than us, but they have only set this rubbish !”
Heder blows a lot of ridicule.
It was a loud voice, but he too was bewildered at the end.
Because of this simple rope trap, the soldiers who were the creme de la creme of the cavalry lost their lives.
‘I’ll bite this one time.’
Heder grinds his teeth.
“Heung!”
He snorted and swung a big hammer over his head.
“Spearmen cut the rope!”
As soon as the order was given, the spearman troop stepped up forward and cut the ropes and searched the field.
No way could not have set it up properly.’
Heder was convinced.
‘According to our information, they only arrived half a day earlier than us.’
Half a day.
it can be a long time as it can be for a short time, but it was not long enough to install traps throughout the entire field ?
Heder’s hypothesis was right on.
“It’s the end! I don’t see anymore ropes, sir!”
Cried out spearman.
The rope search was completed sooner than expected.
“Kuhahaha! That’s more like it! Once again, begin the assault! Charge!”
Heder exclaimed out his order as he kicked his horse.
He spurned the march, which had been delayed for a short time.
Doo-doo doo doo doo doo!
The ground trembled loudly.
A cloud of dust soared.
It was a fierce assault.
Roan smiled mysteriously at the ever-coming Heder.
‘Thanks to the rope, the cavalry collapsed.’
Now the leading ones are the usual horsemen who are somewhat less capable.
So far, everything was as expected.
‘It’s hard to think of a battleground as a flatland, only a power-to-force war.’
Of course, if everything was to be decided in this battle, he was determined and ready to compete.
But for Roan, this battle was only the start of it.
He needed to win while saving as much power as possible.
However, Roan was not really talented in tactics and strategy.
He only had his memories of his past life.
Furthermore, the memories were clearly remembered after the hexmage’s mental attack, even the smaller events.
‘I even feel like my head has improved.’
In fact, as time passed, he felt empowered to study and train.
Roan smiled and looked at the battlefield.
Heder reached out to the front after some time.
“The real importance of war is not strategy or tactics.”
The answer was different.
It was fairly simple.
‘People.’
He had lived two lives, both of which have been a fierce battle of endless wars, and he had come to realize that the real answer is the people.
Roan focused upon Heder before making up a plan.
How would you think and behave if you were that guy ?
‘Heder Myers. I would thoughtlessly order march forwards .’
Heder was such a man.
He is, of the Estia Empire, a proud native of a great country, and his own original personality hated very thought of low-key because he was too good to be held back.
He even thought it was cowardice to conduct ambushes and traps during combat.
Empire’s Bear was a perfectly fitting nickname.
Roan informed Ian Phillips of Heder’s personality and inclination, and Ian came up with an appropriate tactics for him.
In addition, Roan once again compensated for his shortcomings, by recalling Heder’s old battle events and records.
Fortunately.
‘The battlefield here has become a huge trap.’
A trap to catch a bear named Heder.
The first trap was the rope.
Traps that can deal moderate damage in a short amount of time.
At that moment Heder who has lost his mind swung his hammer and screamed.
“How dare you! Roan! Stop the cowardly act and come out right away and take my hammer!”
A voice that is so great, suppressed the sounds made from the horseshoe.
But Roan didn’t respond in any shape or form.
Heder quickly burst into tears.
“Kuhahaha! War God, more like dead War God! Roan is a coward!”
There was a sense of ridicule.
“Rather, why did you not come a little earlier, so you could’ve set up a camp, and hide in it!”
Roan smirked at the words.
‘The second trap to catch him…….’
Roan’s eyes shined and beamed. At the same time, his right hand went up above his head.
Kigikik
An unknown sound penetrated through the ear.
“Die!!!!”
“Waaaaaaaaa!”
The enemy’s momentum and shouting pierced the sky.
That’s when Roan’s right hand fell forward.
In that instance.
Kegegegegek!
A wooden fence, tightly woven in front of the long line of Lancephil made screeching noise, was revealed.
Within the blink of an eye, it felt like a portrait could have formed in that time.
Roan’s smile on his mouth grew stronger.
‘The second trap is a pointed wooden fence.’
The caravan was there, which was sharply cut, and tied to the fence with a rope.
Until Heder Myers approchead up close, they hid on the floor of the field, and when they reached their proximity, they pulled the rope at once and raised it at an angle.
Kugung!
Furthermore, the ground was dug deep downward, securing it so that the bottom of the fence would not move.
The goal was obvious.
It was an enemy assault blockade and the annihilation of the calvary.
“Hu-hub!”
“Uh, uh, uh!”
The Myers’ soldiers, who were running with much momentum, quickly pulled the reins when they saw the wooden fence that suddenly appeared before them.
However, the speed was so fast that it was impossible to stop in time.
Puk! pubububuk!
With a terrible sound, soldiers and warhorses were skewered in a pointed fenced caravan.
“Do, don’t push!”
“Oh, it’s a fence! A Fence!”
The soldiers, who were running on the back of the vanguard, found the fence a little too late and screamed.
But it’s almost impossible for them to suddenly slow down now.
Pbububuk! Pubuck!
“Kerek.”
“kuougk!”
Like the vanguard, they were also terribly skewered.
“Damn it! Where did this come from?!”
Heder, on the other hand, was also being a header.
rather, he sped up and jumped over the towering fence.
“It’s the Enemy Commander!”
“Kill Him!”
As if waiting, several Lancephil soldiers rushed with the swords and spears.
“Heung! How dare these tadpoles come at me!”
Heder snorted lightly and turned the two hammers vigorously.
Pububububuk!
With a terrible sound, the soldiers’ heads burst like watermelons.
Heder raised the moral and screamed.
“These stupid things! Don’t slow down and jump over! Step on the corpse and jump over!”
“Yes, yes! Yes sir!”
“Jump over!”
With menacing command, the leading horsemen began to jump over the corpses of their former comrades.
However, it was only after the horsemen were running late and had taken a major blow.
If the elite horsemen had not strayed from the line, they would not have been harmed as much as they were now.
Furthermore, the soldiers who barely crossed the fence and stepped in were quickly defeated from the attack of Lancephil’s arrow.
Pubububuk!
The vast majority of ordinary soldiers, except the Adjutant and knights, that were killed looked like hedgehogs.
Attack after attacks continued, not even allowing them for a brief breather.
“Ke ugh!”
“Kuugh!”
Screams continued to explode everywhere.
“Damn it! These cowards!”
While Heder looked at the dying soldiers in front of his eyes opened his eyes wider.
He wanted to smash the Lancephil’s soldiers with a hammer in his hands, but the guys were too far away.
“Damn it! Infantry division! Hurry over the fence! Protect the knights and cavalry!”
Following Heder’s call, The Myers Infantry stepped on the bodies of horsemen and warhorses and crossed the fence.
Pubububuk!
The shield prevented the attacks of Lancephil’s arrows.
The knights and horsemen, including Heder, breathed a long sigh with a reassuring expression.
“The enemy is in front of you! Push up your shield forward and march slowly!”
Even Heder, that shouted out to charge up ahead withouht a thought, wasn’t stupid enough to rush into the situation.
Thump. Thump. Thump.
The entire Myers Army approached the Lancephil army with their feet in sync.
One step after one step carefully followed by a forward march.
Watching the situation, Roan raised his right hand to stop the archer’s attack.
Instead, he turned his finger around to put the cavalry and infantry at the forefront.
Meanwhile, Heder and Myers army were getting a little closer.
The scout, who was watching the situation, cried out in a low voice.
“They’ve stepped in sir.”
Roan nodded slightly and pointed forward with his right hand.
“Advance!”
As if they waited for the signal, some of the Lancephil soldiers, led by Viscount Higgs Potter, rushed toward Heder Myers’ army.
A fierce assault continued unrelentingly, as if there were no more traps.
“Damn it!”
Heder looked at Higgs, who was in front of him, and shouted out his swears.
Myers’ soldiers, whom were hiding under the shield, were a little late in getting into a counter-attacking stance.
“Wipe them out!”
Heder screamed and kicked the horseback.
Chang! chachang! chang! chang!
Soon, a battle broke out with the sound of steel.
“Kehahahaha! That’s it! That’s it! This is the real battle!”
Heder swung the hammer with a smile.
Pubuk! Puk!
In one attack, three or four soldiers were smashed in the head.
“This guy! Let me compete with Higgs Potter once!”
Higgs rushed to Heder, looking ahead with the sword.
“If it isn’t Higgs, the traitor!”
Heder swung the hammer while squirming.
Bang!
Higgs’s long sword trembled as if it were broken.
“Ke Ugh! What a force to be reckoned with.”
Higgs swayed while biting his lips.
In just one exchange, the momentum has been dampened.
Heder, on the other hand, had more momentum.
“Kehahaha! If it was Higgs Potter I thought he was a well-known leader! Since the Rinse Kingdom is a small country, the leader’s skills are childlike!”
Insulting judgement.
“And how frightened you are, how sweaty you are!”
As Heder said, Higgs’s face was drenched.
If he looked closely, the face as well as the armor and the warhorse looked dampened.
But Heder didn’t notice it.
“The soldiers here are sweaty sir!”
“I think the soldiers of Rinse Kingdom are all cowards, sir!”
Here and there, the Myers’ soldiers struck him.
“Keeuk.”
Higgs swung his sword once again with a very angry expression.
However.
Kagang!
Heder bounced off the sword with a light gesture, that looked like little to no effort.
“Keeuk!”
Higgs once again bit his lips.
A precarious look seemed to show, like at that instant he will drop the sword.
He was in conflict for a moment, but he shouted out forcefully.
“Re, retreat! Retreat now!”
Even if it was not said, the Lancephil’s army was being pushed very subtly back in the siege.
Why?
It could not be figured out yet.
“Retreat!”
“Retreat now!”
Several Adjutants followed and began to step back.
The Lancephil’s army quickly retreated like the downstream current.
“Aa! These cowards!”
Heder frowned with disappointment.
He pointed to Higgs and the Lancephil soldiers fleeing with his large hammer.
“Chase them! Chase them down and cut their throats!”
“Waaaaaaaaa!”
Soon, with thunderous shouts, the march began once again.
But the Higgs and Lancephil’s soldiers that were seemingly defeated were very orderly, and very quick.
By the time Heder had just sped up the chase, they had already reached the front.
“Chet! Rinse Kingdom guys, their skills in running away is top-notch.”
He hit his tongue and mocked.
At that moment.
“Lo, Lord!”
One Adjutant, who was running alongside him, looked at Heder with a pale face.
A very urgent voice.
“What is it?”
Heder frowned his visage and asked.
Adjutant swallowed with his dry throat and pointed his finger to the floor.
“Flo, look at the floor sir!”
“Floor?”
Naturally, Heder and other commanders glanced at the floor.
The wild grass were dry and casually drooping.
At first glance, there’s nothing strange about the scenery.
The Adjutant, who had halted the horse, jumped forward and smacked the grass with the end of the spear.
At that instance, the damp, wet grass was gone and dry grass emerged.
Adjutant grabbed the grass and shook it out.
“It’s oil! it’s completely soaked in oil sir!”
“Oil?!”
Heder’s eyes turned rounder.
He hurriedly pulled the reins and stopped.
The pursuing Myers’ soldiers hurriedly stopped.
Heder turned his head and looked at the soldiers’ feet and the ground.
‘Ah…….’
Both of his eyes trembled.
The dry wild grass flipped over and the oil-soaked wild grass clung unto the soldiers’ legs.
A chill crawled behind the nape of his neck.
He couldn’t figure out how far the oil-soaked grass spread out to.
“Do…….”
He tried to give out order to dodge.
But the sound he never wanted to hear came before him and penetrated his ears.
Sweeee!
Sharp sounds cutting the wind.
One was able to gauge what it was without even having to look back.
‘Arrows.’
As it wasn’t a different answer, the fire falling above their heads, the arrows fell in front of their feet.
Pubububububuk!
With the sound of rupture, the flames stretched out in all directions.
At the same time.
Hurrrek!
The oil-fed wild grass on the floor burned violently.
The flame swells as if it were in tandem.
It was reminiscent of a similar fire path.
The glaring flames, with a great amount of heat, terrified the Myers soldiers.
“Yaah!”
“Sa, save me!”
“Fi, fire!”
The soldiers became human torch and struggled.
‘Shit. Higgs Potter! It was water, not sweat!’
His frightened expression swelled with smoke.
Heder’s face was nicely distorted.
He quickly examined the battlefield with his two eyes.
The flames burned fiercely, but that didn’t mean all the soldiers were trapped in the flames.
The vanguard and the reaguard troop were fortunately skewed away from the oil zone .
Of course, that didn’t mean it was safe.
‘We must retreat before the flames move.’
He had to safeguard the surviving soldiers and make contingency plan afterwards.
Heder took a deep breath and raised the hammer.
“Myers! Go back to the rear……”
When the command continued.
“Are you going to run away?”
A voice penetrated his ear.
Heder twisted his face and looked in the direction the voice was heard.
“You, you, you are the bastard……!”
He gritted his teeth automatically.
Where his gaze was headed.
There, a man wearing a red armor stood as resplendent as the flames.
War God Roan Lancephil.
Finally he appeared in front of Heder holding a spear.
“If you want to run away, run away.”
A soft voice that treated him as if he was a child.
“What, what did you say!”
Heder trembled.
His anger stretched to his head.
Roan, on the other hand, has a casual look.
“I have no intention of killing cowards.”
The words themselves ended in fear.
“This guy!”
Heder charged towards Roan.
Two huge hammers flew toward Roan’s head.
Roan swung Travias’ Spear lightly by kicking it with his toes.
His head had turned and the spear had cut the wind.
Kagang!
The flame sparked with a heavy steel sound.
“Ke ugh!”
It was Heder who stepped back with the sound of his choking.
“I’m of the Marauders of Empire, and I, how could I The Heder Myers was the one pushed back in power…”
He shook his head in disbelief.
He knew Roan was praised as WarGod, but he thought it was stemmed from the delusions of the people of the small country.
‘I was the one was going to show the might of a real great power…….’
He was confident.
He thought he could break Roan’s head with one confrontation.
But in just one confrontation, his steadfast confidence cracked.
His hands trembled.
His head was running red.
Roan’s soft voice then traversed with the wind.
“You guys made two big mistakes.”
Heder looked up at Roan.
His expression showed that he did not understand.
Roan swung Travias’ spear lightly and continued.
“The first mistake was that you thought the Lancephil Fief Army was all that I had.”
“What are you spouting……?”
Heder’s visage frowned.
Of course, he knew that there were some aristocratic forces who sympathized with Roan.
But the only real threat was the Lancephil Fief Army.
Roan pointed to the flames that spilled over into the spear.
“Ropes, fences, and oil-soaked grass are not prepared by our Lancephil Fief Army. We didn’t have time to prepare for it.”
Heder nodded unknowingly.
It was a clear fact.
Roan and Lancephil Fief Army arrived half a day ago.
‘And I’ve never been informed that they’re preparing for these traps.’
As a result, even simple traps turned into a scathing trap, causing great damage.
Roan smiled at Heder in distress.
“The people who created the traps are the inhabitants of nearby Fief.”
“Ah…….”
Heder gave out a short shout with an epiphany.
Roan’s smile on his mouth grew wider.
“Thanks to them, we were advantageous.”
It was true.
Roan had been actively embracing their help since confirming the support of the citizens of Hocken Castle.
This allowed the Lancephil Fief Army to literally focus on combat and war.
It was a moment when the mighty army was again reborn as a strong force.
Roan moved the spear and pointed it to Heder.
“Your second mistake…….”
His voice was casual, but he felt a strange sense of overbearing.
“You still underestimated my skills.”
Once again there was a hazy grin formed his mouth.
Clay had a new assessment of Roan as the Lancephil Fief Army quickly captured the southern part of North Rinse Kingdom.
He was a little vigilant.
Nevertheless, Clay and other commanders of the Rinse Liberation still underestimated Roan’s skills.
That misjudgment led to the current results.
In the first place, Heder Myers wasn’t Roan’s opponent.
Heder closed his mouth, took a deep breath, and snorted.
“You’re good at spouting out some nonsensical shit.”
Trying to gain back his momentum with a struggle.
He wanted to keep his self-esteem as if I it would kill him if he did not.
“Why do you want to tell me all of this?”
He is the enemy commander.
Even if Roan’s words were not top secret, there was nothing good if it flowed into Clay’s ears.
Roan responded by waving the spear lightly.
“Whatever happens, you’re going to die, here, now.”
A voice filled with confidence.
It was Roan’s verdict and proclamation.
“Looks like you’re underestimating me.”
Heder gritted his teeth and lifted up his two hammers.
Roan looked at him and whispered in a small voice.
“Tell me. I’ll listen.”
At the sudden talk, Heder’s visage frowned.
“What?”
Questioned back with a short word.
The answer was also very short.
“Your last words.”
At the moment, Heder’s face was distorted.
“You insolent man!”
A voice filled with malice rang throughout the battlefield.
Roan smiled softly and shook his head.
“Depressing. Only that kind of will be left to the world.”
Huarrek!
The black-and-red flames followed with Travias’ Spear.
At the same time, the spear slid through space as if it were dancing.
“Die!”
Heder swung the hammer while shouting out his curse.
Quaang!
With a roar, fire struck in all directions.
Hazy smoke covered the two men.
A short time later, the smoke cleared, revealing Roan and Heder.
Roan was still casual.
The black-red flame from the Travias’ Spear was also extinguished ?
Heder, on the other hand, looked barely conscious.
Also, the large hammer Heder held was only left with shallow handle on his hand.
Then.
Supot!
With the eerie sound, the flames raged from Heder’s left shoulder to his right flank.
The flames spread a little bit and soon began to engulf Heder.
Heder muttered in vain with the pain of melting his whole body.
“Damn…….”
That was the end.
Finally, the black-red flame sped up to Heder’s head and turned him into a handful of ash.
Roan looked at it and turned his wrists to relax his position with Travias’ Spear.
“Phew.”
His lips were slicked, and his short breath sprang out.
“Damn is it…….”
Heder’s last words to the world.
“I’d rather choose to be the insolent guy.”
A soft voice swirled around the battlefield in the wind.
Roan’s surroundings were filled with flames.
