Another Life

Blood Curse

Jairo, who was looking out from the walls of Dreyer Castle, had many times taken the scouts in the direction of the village of Lugogne while guiding himself through the Riley and the others who had gone out.

This was also Riley's concern, making it appear that the Imperial Army of Ruthailand had made its way to the imperial capital Nariya, in fact lurking near the village of Rugonee and being wary of being attacked by Dreyer Castle after Riley and the others had made their appearance.

But Jairoh's thought ended in concern, because Riley and the others had fled.

Too soon to come back, no way, you're telling me Master Riley lost?

Even so, Jairo gave instructions to the soldiers of the castle gate.

"Master Riley and the others are back! Open the castle gate!

"Dear Jairo, that!

The sight Jairo saw, told by soldiers on the walls, was a group of allies fleeing in engagement with soldiers from the Ruthai Empire.

What the hell is going on? If it stays like this, you will be attacked in the castle, and you are mixed with allies, so shoot a bow and arrow and you will hit your allies... you have no choice, a little sacrifice is ready, to some extent in the castle, accommodate your allies and close the castle gate?

"My allies are being chased by the enemy! Prepare to die in the castle! Archers don't let go of arrows until they're definitely hit!

This is a mess, I think I might have to abandon the three castle gates.

With that in mind, Jairo was looking at soldiers preparing for a riot in the castle.

This is a mess, if it stays this way, the Ruthai Imperial Army will come into the castle as well. Jairo, this place seems rude, but don't ever open the castle gate.

If we fight behind the walls, in addition to the attack from the castle, we will prevail.

With that in mind, Riley was on his way to Dreyer Castle, staring at Adele's troops mixed with his fleeing allies, but the idea became something to be smashed into.

Through the woods, it was in Riley's eyes that Dreyer Castle was visible, which opened the castle gate.

Stupid bastard! Jairo's guy, what are you gonna do if you can't make a ruthless decision here!... I have no choice, we'll figure this out if we get back to the castle as soon as possible and let them close the castle gate as soon as possible.

Though Riley thought so and instantly changed his mind, the idea was a little sweet.

Together, the Luthai Imperial Army destroyed the gates of the castle as a priority.

You can't close the castle gate if they break it! Are you saying that the castles of the Luthai Empire are familiar to the Luthaians?

Riley regretted it, but something even more surprising happened.

A sudden lightning strike struck near Honmaru in the castle, causing a huge explosion.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What's that?

Yes, this lightning strike was the combined magic of the two, shown in Cecil and Cecily's Panas offensive strategy.

"The bullet landing point is off, 30 meters west and 10 meters north!

"... say something unsolicited"

"Yes, it's surprisingly difficult because there are no rain clouds."

Near left pointing out the magic bullet landing point with the celestial eye, Cecil and Cecily complained.

"I'll hear you cry later, now if you don't draw attention, the penetration unit is in danger"

"... I know. I'm coming."

"Thunderbolt!"

"Iceland!"

The two magic resonated violently and fell into the building of Honmaru next.

"What is that?... Quickly extinguish the fire! Fire's gonna burn in the other buildings!

When Elias discovered Jairo shouting like that on the walls, he immediately stopped seeing the number of captains of the Blue Dragon Squad nearby.

"I'm sorry, Lord Numero! Move us over that wall!

"Lord Elias, that is dangerous!

"We're in the middle of a war now! It's dangerous everywhere! Besides, defeat the Wall Commander and your enemies will be confused!

"... I get it. Hey! Blue Dragon Squad, prepare the Demon Marl to expand the space transfer over that wall!, then the bowmen sweep the bows and arrows, and whoever volunteers for the slaughter squad, continue to Master Elias!

"Thank you, Lord Numero."

"I mean, better than that, I wish you good luck. Hurry up and deploy the space transfer!

That being said, the captain had the Blue Dragon Squad deploy the space transfer over the walls.

"Spatial transfer, deployment complete!

"Souta, it's your turn!

"Ooh! Archers, stand up! Let go! Let go of my hair!

It was through space transfer that the archers of the Ruthai Empire rained bows and arrows over the walls.

The soldiers of the boulder walls fled the scene, and the slayer team led by Elias passed through the space transfer and jumped over the walls.

Jairo was struggling to understand what was going on at this time.

Why... why is there so much space transfer coming out? And from there, they get used to soldiers coming down like they flow after a bow and arrow attack.

That means this method of warfare is the usual method of warfare in the Luthai Empire... how many brave men do you have? There were hundreds of them in space transfers.

I can't... there's no way I can beat these guys.

When Jairo thought so, Elias in red armor came out of a group of soldiers of the Ruthai Empire.

"Jairo, I've come as you wish."

"Hahaha, how far are you disciplined... I need one favor, instead of interrupting a single ride, why don't you help them? Hey, guys, stop the fight!

And the soldiers of the wall, who heard the word, stopped the battle, and watched over their words and their deeds.

"... I'm sorry, but I don't have the right to do that."

"Okay, then whatever the outcome of the one-horse fight, the soldiers here surrender.

Besides, the soldiers here are well trained and necessarily useful to the Ruthai Empire, how about this?

This may help Riley if it goes well, and the Miyagi will want to keep fighting and avoid soldier wear and tear.

"I just don't have that authority... but I'll check with your palace. Jairo, you tell Riley the immediate truce, the place to ride is in front of the first castle gate.

Just in case, I'm gonna have two brave men follow you from here, and if it doesn't work, I'm gonna let this brave army in, you know what that means?

Elias said that if Riley was not convinced, he would occupy Honmaru once and for all in the space transfer of the brave.

"... I understand"

"Hey, somebody follow Jairo"

So he turned himself toward the nearest left.

"What, you surrender?

The left-hand side was a little delighted to hear the report from Elias.

"Yes, as I said earlier, it is conditional on me and my deputy Jairo's one-horse riding.

And whether we win or lose, the castle says we're all surrendering. "

This is an offer I don't even wish for, I can get that Riley, and I don't have to do extra soldier damage...... but what's the aim?

"Father-in-law, what will Riley and the others be after?

"I don't think there's any other reason, you've probably lost your temper to the number of brave men here."

To the number of brave men? With that said, threats in the number of brave men have been quite common to those on the continent for a long time, why?

"I've been wondering, on the continent, how many brave men say things? I don't know what a brave man can do with a strategy or tactic."

"That would be the idea of the Ruthai Empire, or the Imperial Palace.

When I saw how the Ruthai Empire fought, I thought that the Ruthai Empire would place a lot of emphasis on the strength of individuals, but basically on maneuvers to move the army into battle like a creature.

In contrast, on the continent, personal strength will be more important than rough maneuvers, the Knightwitches still move closer to the Ruthai Empire, but not yet.

So there are things that are more powerful than ordinary people, and fear of the brave is immeasurable.

There will be no one in the Luthai Empire with 3,000 of them to defy honesty. "

I see. Are brave men like nuclear weapons on this continent?

Thousands of nuclear weapons are in our possession, and there are no morons to wage war on mass-producing countries.

That means it would be better to put out the brave men in full in the future and avoid futile warfare.

"I see... let's say we change our policies in the future.

Returning to the story, let's admit the surrender and one-horse argument of the Dreyer Castle soldiers, of course, that there will be an immediate ceasefire. In the future, the soldiers of Dreyer Castle are conditioned to enter the Ruthai Empire. "

"Okay, let's move on like that, then!

So Elias went toward the gate of Castle Dreyer.

Fighting had already stopped at Dreyer Castle and inside the castle, and a circle of nature and great men had been created in front of the castle gate in the eyes of the left-hand men.

It's late, the truce did happen promptly, but Jairo hasn't come out, did you cower here?

Before Elias, who was thinking about it, a space transfer was opened, and Riley and the others came from within.

Jairo...... why are you looking so dark? Is something wrong?

Riley said something amazing to Elias.

"Ellis, I'm sorry, but it's a player change. I'll take care of it."

"Rye...... what are you talking about? I came here because I promised Jairo I'd take a ride."

"That's why you said you were changing players. Hey, Admiral Left Kingsguard! That's good, right?

No, admitting this is going to kill Riley, and you can't be under my command.

"No, there's no reason to admit it!

"I thought General Left Kingsguard would know what this means.

I'm the castle owner of this Dreyer Castle, and I'm responsible for all this fighting, and they just fought on my orders.

Let Jairo take a ride here, and I'll live freely, because I'm not that thick and I don't have muscle tracks, you know?

I know what Riley is saying. I know, but this guy's not going to say anything about muscle tracks, and what's he after?

"For the Empire?

"No, I don't have a single shard of loyalty... right, if you dare say so, for a friend?

For a friend?... I'm sure my father-in-law and Riley were familiar with childhood and there were others. You want me to help him?

But do you want to protect me until I give up my life... and I'm ready to make it happen?

"Okay, let's admit it. Is that all right with my father-in-law?

"I... I can't..."

"Come on, Ellis, it's not like you can do it, it's kill or be killed!

Riley, who said so, unleashed an unexpected absenteeism toward Elias in one letter, but Elias slipped back slightly and sent Riley absenteeism.

"Rye you......"

"Ellis, you want to at least fight and scatter against you for real, you're not even going to make that feeling come true?

"Seriously..."

When Elias heard the words, he reacted slightly to Pickle.

"Oh, it's you for real. You were just around the corner, the Dreyer Castle retreat... the battle where me and Amilee were helped by you and it was the three of us who survived.

Fight for yourself, like you did then. "

"No... that's..."

"You still care? It's okay, trust me. Besides, are you going to kill your childhood friend? You're rude if you don't do everything you can."

What the hell are you talking about? Are you serious about my father-in-law? Do you have any secrets?

Next to the near left side, Iris thought about it, and grabbed the near left wing.

I know what Riley's trying to say, but...

When Elias, who thought so, shifted his gaze to Chirali and the nearest left, Iris was also next to the nearest left at some point, and he looked worried about Elias and the others.

"What, are you worried about Iri? It's okay. That General Left Kingsguard isn't that small of a vessel."

Encouraged by Riley's words as if he had seen everything through, Elias decided to be ready for one.

You'll be fine for a short time, if you don't even manage to run wild...

Elias thought so, and when he removed his armor torso and naked his torso, Elias quietly closed his eyes and said:

"Berserk Mode"

At that moment, blood vessels appeared all over Elias, and even to his face, and rather than vampires, beastly fangs appeared, and on his back grew things like wings of a pitch-black angel.

"Rye, you kept me waiting."

And when he opened his eyes, Elias' eyes went from their usual blue colour to a beautiful red colour of blood.

"I've been waiting for you, those eyes, those eyes from then on!

When Riley, who said so, was slashed by Elias, Elias, with the sword he had, was spinning with Kurli to move to the rear of Riley, taking away Riley's sword strike.

At that moment, Riley's body was amputated into a single letter, split between her upper and lower body and collapsed on the spot.

"Rye!"

As he was, Elias held Riley's upper body and shouted as he went to Riley's side.

"Rye! You, why?

"Ask Sahei everything... please everyone..."

Riley, who said so, smiled satisfactorily and took his breath away.

At that moment, the voice of joy and the voice of sorrow and fear rose from the soldiers of Dreyer Castle, from the Luthai Imperial Army.

Why is there such a joyous voice? Aren't you afraid of what I look like?

That's what Elias thought, but somewhere Riley said, "Hey, I told you it was okay."

In a voice of joy and a voice of sorrow and fear, the left hand gently laid his hand on Elias's shoulder, watching how it was.

"My father-in-law, you have done a wonderful job... let's bury Riley's body carefully"

"Dear Hall, thank you... aren't you terrified of what I look like?

"Sure, the impact is tight, but this is the skill I said, isn't it? Father-in-law is my father-in-law."

"Absolutely, you are a person... I need to speak to you, Mr. Hall, Iris, and both of you, and this is something you must tell your daughter and her husband, not as Elias Neumann as a sword guide, but as the head of the Neumann family.

"Okay, let's do the burial in the evening. Jairo, do you have a room?

"Yes, this way, let me show you"

"Major General Left, you arranged to drop in here about 500 miles from the village of Lugogne, reconfiguring your troops.

Examine and report the damage, the injured will be transported to the village of Rugonee and let the doctor you were talking about treat you, the treatment will be paid for by the Empire of Ruthailand "

"Ha!"

"Bash, you prepare to bury the body carefully, not separated by enemy allies, the funeral will take place in the evening"

Copy that, sir.

"Lord Horsehead, you ask the Dreyer Castle soldiers what they hope to do now.

As it is, if you want to be a soldier of the Luthai Empire, I will allow you, and if you want to be a mercenary, you can join the Crusaders or take them to Nassau.

If you want to go back to the Empire, put him under house arrest here until the war is over. "

"Understood!"

"The others, help these three."

That said, the castle of Dreyer went in haste at once, and the left-handed men, guided by Jairo, went toward Dreyer Castle Honmaru.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In a room at Dreyer Castle, near left and with Iris and the others, Elias sat across the table with a strange face.

"So, Father-in-law, what do you want to talk about?

"So shall I say the cursed blood of the Neumann family, before we talk about it, what is my profession (Job)?

My vocation (Job) is Demon Knight and Kensei. "

"Oh no... my father only told me he was a normal knight..."

"Well, listen, Iris.

This is because the Neumann family made a promise to the Emperor long ago that they would not teach the profession (Job) to others, of course to my son.

The devil knight is about a knight who fights with the power of the devil, but is inherently the object of fear on this continent as the use of the devil, and if found, purified… that is, burned.

For whatever reason, a demon knight can't be a regular person, because if he is, he will go mad and die.

So why can only the Neumann family be demon knights, because there is demon blood in the blood of our Neumann family, there were some caged demon children in their ancestors quite some time ago, and we Neumann family will be their descendants.

So thanks to that blood, the Neumann family will be safe, even if they become demon knights. "

And when he heard the word of Elias, the proximity left, the face of a man floated instantly, yes, Robin.

He did say Pandora was a jerk... and his blood was on Iris... it's kind of complicated.

But I'm glad I didn't let Lana make the demon knight's choice, because if she had, she'd be dead for sure. Really this is over the trap level...... check it next time to rank it up.

Is that it? Maybe if Iris and I had a baby, we'd have that ability?

"My father-in-law could have had a child with me and Iris..."

"Yes, as you can guess, you can be a demon knight."

"But if the Demon Knight was a Neumann family tradition, if you could have told me sooner, I would have had the option of becoming a Demon Knight, not a Holy Knight..."

Iris, who said so, said with a slightly more complex face.

"What? Did you get that far already?

"Yes, thanks to your husband."

"Really... but maybe that's a good idea, because you don't have to go through that."

"Did you do that?

"... yes, that Berserk mode does make that strength speed outweigh the brave, but if the state of excitement persists, it kills all those who move around unconscious.

So that's exactly what it looks like to be the devil himself. "

"But Father, being a demon knight shouldn't be without a pretty high level, but how the hell?

"That's... because the Neumann family is made up of numerous blood. The experience gained by the slave comes straight into the master as well..."

"No way!"

"No way, Iris. My father, or your grandfather, let me be the master of many more slaves than I was when I was a young man, to put those slaves in dungeons and wars.

I mean, my power is also the power of the dead slaves... that's the Neumann family "

"No way, did your father give it to me, too?

"It hasn't. Your grandfather told me to do it, but I didn't want you to have such a blood curse."

"Father..."

I feel like I know what it's like to be a stepfather. Who would want my beloved child to behave like such a curse?

Perhaps the protagonists of the Neumann family in history, too, would have been troubled, but from the empire, the acts of His Father-in-law could be received as treachery.

My father-in-law must have been worried too.

"Don't worry, Father-in-law. If a child were born, there would have been no current story, and the demon knight would have ended up in the stead of his father-in-law, all buried in darkness.

From now on, the Neumann family will continue as the house of the Ruthai Empire. "

"Thank you, son-in-law. That would help."

And Elias said so, gripping his left hand.

―――――――――――――――――――――

When Elias was attacking Dreyer Castle, he was marching in a major detour, there was a group of the Luthai Empire, yes, led by Pandora, a separate action team poking behind the ambush.

"Princess! Half of them are not already with us! We need to slow down a little bit."

Bastian, who said so, had no choice but to be concerned.

Because the 2,000 soldiers of the Luthai Empire, who keep them from near left, were a forcible army with no rest or sleep to take this meal, which is now reduced to about a thousand, and at this rate, by the time they arrived, there was only a momentum left of seven under their own delivery.

"I know! So you would have given the map to those behind you! You just have to come later! Now it's a prerequisite to make it to the battle."

"But..."

"But... not! And whoever follows this march will be taken by our black knights, and whoever follows them on foot will, of course, have the top 80."

"Why is that?

"What your father wants from us is loyalty, of course, but strength and mobility.

Anyone who can follow this march will be said to be able to use it in future operations. "

"So Master Miyagi wants the princess to take command of the soldiers from now on?

"Yes, your father is demanding more from me."

"... you say?

"Monkeys can do it if they have strength, such as winning just because they are strong.

What your father wants is not just strength, but a head... this brilliant brain of mine.

Earlier, I watched your father's battle with skill, but that was in the realm of art, and I wanted to try to do that command, so much so that I wanted to plan an operation. "

"Princess, you seem to enjoy coming here somehow. I've never seen a princess smile before."

Are you smiling? This me?... well am I smiling?

"It's fun, Busty. Think about it. Isn't this the first time I've ever said I'd make something up?"

"Sure, if you say so."

"Besides, as long as I'm your father's daughter, there's no such thing as that abominable God getting in my way, and your father's memory is filled with great knowledge that no one in this world knows.

What if this isn't fun, Busty? "

"Right... but who the hell is Miyagi?

"It's the secret of the island house, I won't allow you to pry at the minister's... but Busty, you've done more to me than you did in ancient times, let me tell you a little bit about that merit.

Your father is equal to or greater than God, because in this world the Father of God has come to apologize to your father. "

"What... I didn't know you were that far away. So, princess, what are your plans for the future?

"As I said earlier, we will distribute those who follow us, those who survive this battle, and let them go through more intense battles.

We are the Empire of Ruthailand… No, we will be the strongest army in the world, yes enough to overwhelmingly crush that army of Johannes.

You will find something other than battle to better understand what people think and do.

If you look down, people don't move, because it's only fitting for me to know what other people think and act on. "

"Yes, let the others do something."

Bastian, who said so, smiled and said that he had already decided on something.

This was the birth of the Black Knight, later subject to fear and glory on the continent.
