Albrecht's Chronicles

The opposing Knight takes a step back.

“I am Ernst, a knight loyal to Earl Harkenburg, Gottfried von Halkenburg. ”

“I am Calteren's heir and knight Albrecht von Hoenclatern. ”

Ernst is surprised. He didn't know the opposing team would be heirs to the territory or nobles. However, the heir rarely comes out of the territory, and the group doesn't seem like an attendant of the nobles. Ernst was odd to see.

Benzel was surprised, too. I thought he was a Wandering Knight and he was heir to the Realm.

Ernst wears a shark because his opponent is as tall as he is.

“If you don't mind, could you tell us the purpose of your party? ”

Albrecht looks at Benchel.

Benzel said, noticeably.

“Oh, I'm a merchant. I'm on my way to Lloyd's. I run a window business. ”

Ernst was curious about Albrecht, but when he heard the word spear, he misunderstood how things were going.

“Can I look in the wagon? ”

“Of course.”

Benzel lifts the carriage cover and shows you inside. Ernst looks at both wagons and nods.

“You may pass if you pay toll. Two silver coins per head. Except for you.”

Benzel used to pay tolls on the number of people, except Albrecht.

Ernst gives you a signal that you can walk by with your head tapped to the side.

As they passed through the ruined village, the soldiers around them shook their backs, cheered, and uttered obscene narratives.

Albrecht saw what kind of troops he had. It seemed to be about 20 people. There were too many to defend the road.

Armed with a thick gambean, wearing a cap, pierced chain armor, and leather armor with torn chains. Everyone had a spear, and I saw someone with a sword, a hand axe, and a circular tree shield. Most were not of good quality armor.

They all look like old equipment, but not old ones they picked up on the battlefield.

It was not the time of arming the country or the Lord. It was a time when we had to arm ourselves.

The sun was setting, but it became night soon after passing through the ruined town. The group can't find a place to set up camp anywhere on the side of the road.

You light a campfire, take out the cauldron, and prepare a meal. Albrecht takes his horse out as people gather around the campfire and eat.

“There could be an ambush. ”

Two mercenaries were noticing something. I knew each other's periods because they were covered by mercenaries, soldiers, bandits, robbers, and others. The mercenaries knew they were good prey. It was just anxious. They were too few to fight.

Except for the two mercenaries, everyone was surprised. Benchel said.

“No, I'm sure you paid toll. ”

It was too upsetting. Albrecht looks at the campfire and says,

“There were too many men guarding the road. We only have three men left to fight. It's good food."

It gave me goosebumps that I was right. Benchel said with anxiety.

“So what do we do? Shouldn't we run away now? ”

“How? I can see everything when I light the torch. We'll catch up.”

Albrecht continued:

“You're just hiding out in the bushes where the campfire hits you. You two keep people safe. Bring me more firewood. I'll handle it.”

People panicked when Albrecht wanted to say something and said he'd taken care of it. Benchel said.

“Knight, there are more than 20 opponents. How can I......”

“Do you have a better idea? That's what I'd do. ”

It couldn't have been. Everyone wanted to do this, but after the anxious meal, either through the nose or through the mouth, Albrecht did as Albrecht asked. People crouch and die in distant places behind Albrecht.

Albrecht has an axe and shield by his side. An axe is better than a sword, since they are armed.

The sound of burning firewood was dull. The firewood reflects into Albrecht's blue eyes. When the stars appeared in the designated seats to watch the coming slaughter, they became full. The Cross is caught in the eastern sky.

Albrecht's heart beats. Last time, I dealt with merchant bandits who had no combat experience. But it's different now. Equipment was different, but experienced in combat. Moreover, there was a knight. Nevertheless, the struggle rose in my heart.

The people hiding behind you begin to doze off because of their anxiety that they might die, but over time, they can't beat the horses.

You hear a thumping sound when only a few firewood are left next to Albrecht. Soldiers approach with one or two spears to surround Albrecht.

“Are you alone? ”

Albrecht, a blond blonde, looks at them in the light of a campfire. You stand up with your axe and shield, smiling coldly and saying,

“Yes."

If you kill Albrecht, the fight is over. Target was ranked 1 from the start.

The soldiers nod, looking at each other, and stab one person in line with the call sign.

Albrecht digs in one direction and slaps the spear with his shield hard to the side. The soldier's palm shreds and misses the spear as he feels an unbearable force. However, I moved my hand while embarrassed and tried to pull out the sword. Albrecht approaches, swinging his axe like lightning, and the soldier throws his head up before he can even draw his sword.

Albrecht immediately lowers his axe from top to bottom toward the soldier next to him. Before the soldier could even pose to hold his spear up, he split his chest past his helmet and skull.

After piercing the soldiers' siege, he shot and swung them, killing five of them in an instant.

Soldiers on the other side of the siege line continue to approach, trying to spear you in the back. Albrecht slaps three spears to the side with his shield, half a turn, and he misses the spear. And I narrowed the streets down like a light arrow, killing three more.

By this time, the siege had completely collapsed and Albrecht had begun to roar like a tiger in the north.

Sixteen bodies rolled around before one minute had passed since the soldiers first stabbed the spear. The remaining soldiers abandon the spear and flee.

Ernst, who was watching from afar, was frightened. A knight may be a weapon of war, but it was just a monster. I thought that if the soldiers pierced the spears together, they would be badly wounded. Then he was going to take care of it himself.

Ernst shudders and looks at Albrecht. The shadow that dances to Albrecht and his bonfire fingers covered in blood seemed to come together like a demon from hell.

Albrecht stares at himself precisely in the dark and says,

“Coward.”

Ernst was a knight, too. When he heard he was scared and said he was a coward, he thought he had to run away with his head, but his legs moved forward on their own.

Two knights face each other near a campfire. Ernst draws his sword with his shield. Albrecht throws his shield to the ground. The wind blows slightly. The campfire burns fiercely, as if trying to excite you. In response, the two knights' shadows danced frenzily.

Albrecht steps forward. Ernst lowers his posture and raises his shield under his eyes to stare at the target.

Albrecht grabs the axe with both hands as if he didn't care for defense. He throws a thunderbolt from top to bottom as if he were trying to help.

Ernst tries to put his shield over his stomach and stab him in the face with his sword. Ernst had a hunch that moment. I feel the power on the axe. The user breaks the shield and touches the helmet with its split head. He will die.

Siegfried's Lightning Axe sweeps Ernst from top to bottom, slicing through the air as if there were no obstacles.

Ernst was completely cut vertically. A splintered corpse is collapsed and the briquettes and intestines spill out simultaneously. The steam has collapsed.

Albrecht sees Ernst fallen miserably with one hand on his axe. And I saw the bodies around me. Violent excitement wrapped around my whole body. I looked up and saw the Cross Milky Way. I couldn't think of anything. I just kept looking at the Cross Milky Way. After a while, the excitement subsided. Then the group looks out of sight and says,

“Everybody out. ”

Albrecht told me no one came out. I said it again.

“Come out.”

Then, at the end of the campfire, people prowl and reveal one or two. Everyone looks at Albrecht, who has been wearing a blanket from head to toe, looking at what humans shouldn't see.

* * *

People acted as if there were lions and tigers among them. No one comes near Albrecht. Diego didn't even come.

People looked at Ernst, who was completely cut vertically, and wondered if this was real. Apart from Ernst, the body is in one miserable grave.

Albrecht stares at the burning campfire with a thumping sound.

It reminds me of the old days. After working late, I came back to my room and fell asleep, my mother came to my room and left my dinner, I went to the interview with a trembling mind, I went to university for the first time, I went to see my freshman Oti, I went to see my master, I fought with my friend in middle school......

He was cut off from Earth at some point and was living as Albrecht. Thinking about Earth's memories, I now felt like I was seeing a photo exhibited before the photo exhibition. It felt awkward, but that was it.

Walk through the exhibited photos one by one. Then he saw a picture of a demon that looked just like him, with blue eyes and a suit in front of him. The Devil turns his head as he looks at the picture.

‘It doesn't feel like cutting off Eric's ear. It felt so much better. Aren't you?’

I just stared at the devil without answering.

‘Let's kill everyone and get out of here. It's a big deal, right?’

I gazed at the devil again without saying a word. The demon smiles and vanishes into smoke.

When someone sits next to you, Albrecht slips out of his mind. Martina. I see water and towels.

“I'll clean it up.”

Martina turns her hand over Albrecht's head to let him see. The two met eye to eye. Martina wet the towel and wiped Albrecht's face.

Martina wiped her forehead around her eyes, nose, cheeks, ears, lips, and neck. Albrecht looks at Martina, who cleanses herself. Martina continues to wipe and meets Albrecht in the middle.

I rinsed the towel several times while brushing my armor. The cistern quickly became blood.

Martina goes to tidy up the water and towels, then comes back and sits next to Albrecht. Elena, Anna and Diego came and sat down. They were speechless.

Albrecht smiles and puts his arms between his knees, head up and invites him to sleep.

End of chapter two.
