I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 298

＃When they returned, the family was ruined (299)

The army was advancing toward the south in vain. Even a mid-sized city that was several times more overwhelming in size than a small city and had a wall that was half the height couldn’t stop an army of 30,000.

The reason was simple.

It was because of just one human. After hearing the news of the small city’s fall, each city hastily raised its walls, conscripted dragons, and strengthened its defense lines. However, this war was not something that could be ended simply by gathering together idiots. An overwhelming force who is much stronger than ordinary transcendents.

No one could stop the strong from climbing the walls. After that, the massacre continued as before. Even though the high-ranking dragons rushed in in droves, the result was the same.

The duke still did not load the mana onto his new sword, and with one sword strike, the dragons’ heads rose into the sky.

The pulley that supported the castle gate was cut off with a single sword. Some dragons began to run away due to the overwhelming majesty. They were the ones who heard the news of the fall of nearby small towns. The head of Ardan. The author was not something they could do anything about.

The support of the highest level dragons in the capital was needed. At least there is support from big cities.

However, the big city was in a state of immobility with its doors locked. It was no wonder that the morale of the dragon tribes in the central city was low even before the war began.

As if that wasn’t enough, I was able to see with my own eyes the terrible majesty that I had only heard about in words.

Everyone has already felt deeply in their hearts that resistance only leads to death. Nearly half of the dragons guarding the castle walls escaped without even looking back.

Slaves of different races revolted throughout the city. It was because they heard that the human army was giving them freedom.

The slaves, who had been suffering horribly from the dragon tribe, took advantage of this time and began running wild. The interior of the central city had already become a sea of fire for a long time. In fact, the rate at which larger mid-sized cities were collapsing seemed to be twice as fast as the rate at which small cities were collapsing. A medium-sized city collapsed so absurdly quickly. It took less than half a day to sweep the inside.

The process of freeing slaves and plundering loot took place. The unit, which had become accustomed to the scent of blood through repeated battles, proceeded to kill the dragons without hesitation.

Approximately two hours.

It was the time it took for the army that had swept out the city to reorganize its lines.

Meanwhile, Ethan approached Ilia.

“Is communication organized well?”

“huh. We’ve already planted magic structures in three small cities, and we planted them here a little while ago too. “We are also in good contact with the duchy.”

“No delays?”

“About three seconds? But considering the distance between continents, this is natural. “It’s difficult to reduce it further here.”

“Good job.”

“What trouble? Who is actually suffering the most? “When I hear something like that, I know it’s true.”

“no. I don’t really. To be honest, it’s still pretty boring.”

“but. Because the Duke is stronger than anyone else. “I’ll just install this in a moment.”

“Take your time.”

“You’re still going to be careful, right?”

Ethan left Ilia behind and looked at the burning city behind him. The dragon clan was not responding properly to the point where it was worse than expected.

Of course, there were variables such as the army’s advancing speed being excessively fast, and the fact that he was a strong soldier wearing magic weapons and himself.

Even taking that into account, there were definitely parts that fell apart. It was like that just today.

The dragon race escaped.

It was a sight I had never witnessed, at least not once in my previous life. Only some cunning rulers act like that, but it is common for dragons to go crazy and rush into their graves, even if they think they are in their own graves.

However, Dragonia’s dragons were different. They were easily frightened and their steps were even lighter than that. You don’t know how absurd it was to see them abandon the city and run away.

‘Has the long period of peace made these guys sick?’

At least the guys guarding the coast didn’t act like this.

It was a completely different way of behaving.

‘Maybe they acted like that because they know details about humans.’

If you are on the coast, you will often come across shipwrecks or people washed up by the current. He must have enjoyed feasting every time.

Of course, the formula human = prey will be in place in their head. I didn’t know that it could be said that repeated learning overcame fear.

On the other hand, what about the dragons who live far from the coast?

‘At least he didn’t look used to fighting.’

At best, the only experience they had was managing and supervising slaves in the city. So maybe you get scared easily.

Because I would never have encountered a situation like this before.

It was very good news for Ethan. If this is the tone of the general dragon clan, it will not be much different for the dragon clans belonging to high-ranking positions.

‘Rather, if I did more, I would have done more.’

People who have a lot of things in their hands tend to have the strongest fear.

If they are cowards, how will they respond?

‘I won’t rush in first.’

By now, unless they were completely incompetent fools, there was a good chance they would have some idea of their power. Not only mid-level dragons, but even high-level dragons were cut down with a sword without any mana.

It is a majesty that would make even the highest level dragons feel fear.

I’m afraid to deal with it.

But if you leave it alone, it’s obvious that there will be an uproar.

At such times, what was most desperately needed was a friend who could take the beating instead.

‘ruler.’

Demon dragon and domination.

I will bring two. At least they have long since abandoned the idea of dealing with them on their own.

‘not bad.’

As the power of the two rulers grows, the conflict with those under the dragonlord will also grow. In the first place, wasn’t most of the existing power class made up of shit that had stagnated and started to rot? In the end, the Demon Dragon’s ambition will touch the sanctuary.

‘How are we going to handle it?’

There was a time when I readily agreed to a request to borrow a weapon. In fact, Ardan armor was secretly taken out to the Demon Dragon. It wasn’t that difficult to guess the strategy he would use.

‘I’ll make a scapegoat.’

Creating a believable army, driving out that army, and imprinting its activities clearly in the eyes of the dragon tribe. If that happens, the number of people who will have doubts about the monarch will increase one by one.

In the end, it was the monarch’s actions that brought about the disaster, but it was a ruler other than the monarch who eliminated the disaster.

‘If the demon dragon says even one word, there will be an uproar.’

The monarch lacks qualifications.

They say that we can no longer serve leaders based solely on past glory.

There will be a lot to say.

The number of sympathizers will also increase explosively through this incident.

As he was thinking deeply, he looked at the army.

“We will move to Polonem within two days. “Prepare for the march.”

“yes!”

The army began to move.

* * *

As far as Polonem, there was only one small city and one medium city left. Naturally, something happened that puzzled Ethan, who was thinking about the occupation war. The fact was that both cities were empty, not a single ant left behind.

“Could it be that these guys abandoned the city?”

It was the same in small cities.

The situation was the same in central cities located further back. They left in such a hurry that most of the objects in the city were not even properly organized.

All that remains are numerous footprints and the sight of several elderly dragon refugees walking away from the group.

“It looks like all troops have joined the big city.”

The direction the footprints followed was toward Polonem, the largest city located at the bottom.

“I wouldn’t have gotten far. Shall we pursue it immediately?”

“No, it goes slowly.”

Ethan shook his head. Even now, the soldiers were rapidly marching to take over the city. It was obvious that if he went at full speed to catch up with the dragons who left first, the entire army would spread out.

Spreading out the troops to capture the troops in small and mid-sized cities was not a very good choice.

“yes.”

Nerian nodded as if he understood. So the soldiers began moving south at their original speed. After walking for about half a day, I reached the plains.

“…uh?”

“Could it be the dragons?”

The soldiers began to murmur. Because it was night, the field of view was not wide, but I was able to make out a group of figures in the distance. I was even able to recognize that the shape was very familiar, having seen it so many times recently.

The knights, including Ethan, brightened their eyes. At first glance, the number of dragons on the plains was well over 20,000. In addition, the behavior was quite different from what I had seen in the cities I had previously visited.

It was like that from the beginning. The weapons worn by the dragons, who were well over 20,000 years old, were all of high quality. Additionally, there were high-ranking dragons mixed throughout the group.

―Kuoooo!

Before long, a tremendous roar roared through the army.

The shouts of tens of thousands of dragons contained a clear amount of mana.

‘I thought this was only for cowards.’

Where did an army like this come from?

It was obvious.

Metropolitan Polonem.

The troops staying there must have chosen to attack rather than defend. Considering that the footsteps that continued there were cut off at a short distance, there was a high possibility that troops from small and medium cities had also joined in.

gulp.

The soldiers swallowed their saliva. Duke Ethan’s activities had shaken up the southern continent, but that didn’t mean they didn’t know the strength of the dragon race. If there had been no duke, there would have been many casualties one after another in the fall of at least a medium-sized city, if not a small city.

To that extent, the quality and quantity of the Yongin people in mid-sized cities could not be compared to those in small cities. Moreover, they arrived here with the troops squeezed out of the large city where they were currently advancing. Even an ordinary soldier could easily predict how terrifyingly powerful those dragons were. What is the situation?

An army that marched for half a day.

On the other hand, the Yongin tribe had camped first, rested, and waited.

The numbers were also not much different, around thirty thousand and twenty thousand. Considering that there was a vast difference between low-level dragons and ordinary soldiers, it was safe to say that the war situation was hopeless.

What if you lose here?

It is the land of the dragons.

I can’t even dream of returning alive.

When even the knights could not shake off their fear.

Trudging.

Ethan stepped forward.

And for the first time, mana bloomed above his sword.

Good luck!

A bright white blazing flame began to encroach on the darkness.
