Chapter 62
# 62
62. Mission Type Escort (6)
I said to the freasis who was bending over with a nervous expression.
“Stuck inside. Run outside when I give you a signal.”
“Even if you’re hurt?”
“Even if I die, do it.”
“…I get it.”
Freeasis squirmed along the alley leading to the main street.
Just before entering, he looked at me and said small.
“This will be my last time with you.”
“Maybe.”
I gave a short answer and immersed myself in the shadow of the building.
If Jenna is found wearing the princess’s clothes, all the city’s forces will immediately rush in. I wasn’t there, and Aaron was also injured. The party could have been wiped out before Aaron died.
I muffled the sound of my footsteps.
As I approached the castle gate, I felt a strange feeling as if my senses were disappearing.
[Skill Awakening!]
[‘Han (★★)’ has learned ‘Secret Movement’!]
‘…’
It was a skill that would be learned by a thief to reduce the possibility of being discovered by monsters.
I think I was able to learn it because I hadn’t changed jobs yet. The outline of the body hiding in the shadows became much fainter. I got close to the gates to the point where I could make out their faces. Priasis hid in an alley and looked this way with only his head sticking out.
22 enemy numbers.
You don’t know how many people will get out once the lure starts.
Worst of all, I could have had to fight all the enemies here.
I gripped the scabbard tightly and waited for the time to come.
It was about 20 minutes later that the incident occurred.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwam!
In the far corner of the city, an explosion sounded and a huge whirlpool of flames shot up. The city was temporarily illuminated by the rolling flames. I hastily hid behind a trash can next to it.
The dazed soldier opened his eyes wide.
“What?!”
Then, scarlet flames flared up and shot up into the sky. The flames colored the dark sky with their colors, like fireworks.
‘Looks like they joined safely.’
It was Iolka’s work.
However, the direction of the flame is upward. There is no way to fire useless flames into the sky. A show to attract attention. And that was a signal to me.
After a while, a soldier hurriedly ran from the other side of the street.
The soldier approached the guard at the castle gate and whispered something.
The person presumed to be the captain asked back.
“Did you find it?”
“Yes, a golden coffin in a white dress. It’s the same as it looks. However, the escort troops are rampaging… It seems that reinforcements are needed.”
The captain nodded and began to give instructions to the soldiers behind him.
Soon after, the soldiers left the gate, each with a torch in their hand. I tracked the number of guys escaping from behind the dumpster.
‘two. three. four. heat. fifteen. eighteen.’
18 out of 22.
There are 4 troops remaining at the gate. Performance was better than expected.
The only regret was that the article I was looking at did not leave. The knight, fully clad in black armor, stood tall at the entrance like a stone statue.
‘as soon as possible.’
I gently pulled the sword out of the scabbard.
All the street torches are converging on one point. Screams and cheers echoed across the winding road. The number of soldiers gathered there was estimated at several hundred. There wasn’t much free time.
My eyes met with Friasis in the alley.
As if telling me to cheer up, Friasis looked at me and whispered.
‘That’s funny.’
I got up.
And at once it came out of the shadows. A soldier warming his hands over a bonfire found me.
Sugak!
The sword light flashed and the soldier’s neck fell. Blood spurted from the belatedly decapitated corpse.
The soldier next to him hurriedly put his hand on his waist.
“What…”
The sword blade, which did not lose speed even after cutting one person’s head, cut through the second one with ease.
The feeling of bones being cut was transmitted coldly to the wrist. The last remaining soldier watched the flames spread into the sky from the other side of the bonfire and our eyes met.
I grinned and pulled out the dagger from my belt and threw it away.
The soldier grabbed the dagger stuck to his throat and collapsed, eyes wide in disbelief.
Just 2 seconds to kill 3 soldiers.
There is only one knight left.
I fixed my sword.
The knight wearing a faceplate could not see his face, but he could tell that he was not agitated. He stood there motionless.
I swung the blood-stained sword around.
“Move away. Then I’ll save you.”
“…”
The knight quietly pulled out the sword behind his back.
It was a greatsword more like a lump of metal than a weapon, but the movements were infinitely natural.
‘I can’t understand the language.’
I didn’t even think it would work anyway.
I took a short breath. He is wearing sturdy full plate mail. I still couldn’t cut through the armor with my skills. I had to aim for the joint of the iron plate.
‘There aren’t many gaps.’
At first glance, the knight seemed to be standing still, but he was in a position where he could attack at any time with his great sword in front of him. They were at least two orders of magnitude higher than the knights of the temple.
The knight did not move first.
Either way, I was the one in a hurry.
I set the blade horizontally and dug in. The target is the junction where the iron plate of the elbow of the right arm connects. With a little more force, it might be able to pierce the armor.
Kang!
The knight deflected the stab with his greatsword. I moved sideways and aimed to the left. The knight blocked it with his greatsword again. this time at the top. block lower. got stuck
“…”
I gathered all my strength and cut down.
The knight held the greatsword in both hands and blocked it. Blue sparks flew from the blades they met.
‘You bastard…’
I took three steps back.
The knight lowered his greatsword. The cold eyes behind the mask were directed at me.
‘Do not attack.’
I deliberately created gaps between attacks, but I didn’t counterattack.
He did not move a single step from the entrance of the castle gate and was consistent with defense and defense.
The reason is clear.
I bit my lip.
‘Does he know that he can win even if he just drags out time?’
By now, Aaron’s party and the soldiers should be clashing.
can’t last long If it goes on like this, it will be annihilation. Not only would it be annihilated, but if the expeditionary force returned, I and Priasis would die as well.
I said in a low voice.
“Get out of the door.”
“…Kuk.”
A sneer, like scratching iron, flowed through the faceplate.
As long as I make a path, I might be able to pass the priasis while I catch him.
But the article doesn’t get out of hand. still standing at the entrance.
“Then look for it.”
[‘Han (★★)’ has entered a berserk state!]
I activated a switch in my head.
Visible veins sprouted on the forearm holding the sword.
just rush. He threw a sword like a blow.
Cagan!
The iron plate was dented.
The knight staggered for a moment, but blocked the second slash that flew to his neck. However, the third slash, which landed on the thigh, could not be stopped. A strong counter-elasticity was determined in the grip.
Now that the strength is approaching 40.
You can’t cut iron plates, but you can break them.
Kang! Kang! Kang!
Every time he swung his sword, his armor warped. I aimed for the gap in the iron plate that appeared between them, but the knight defended that place desperately. Even so, it can be knocked down in 10 minutes.
[‘Jena (★★)’ is in a bleeding state. HP decreases at regular intervals.]
[‘Aaron (★★)’ has fallen into a dying state. Life is in danger!]
‘Like a dog.’
[‘Iolka(★★★)’ enters a state of runaway magic.]
[Tips/Runaway magic is an abnormal condition that occurs when a wizard uses excessive magic.] ‘
It’s not even 10 minutes!’
The corners of the mouth exposed through the cracks in the knight’s faceplate drew an arc.
Knights do not attack. Because they are afraid of being attacked. The entrance to the castle gate was blocked, blocking only fatal wounds.
“Little boy, run!”
I raised my voice and cried out.
It doesn’t matter whether the soldiers around you listen or not.
Priasis cringed and came out into the street. and started running
Kang!
The blade and the blade collided.
I screamed out loud.
“Never mind what happens. Get out of the gates. Run along the road!”
Priasis ran in a hurry.
The knight stood firm in the middle of the gate. It won’t fight back with me, but it will be different with Priasis. I will aim without hesitation.
“go away!”
I kicked the knight with all my might.
The knight raised his greatsword to block it, but his body was pushed back. Priasis dug in through the gap.
yup!
The great sword swung with the sound of cutting the wind. I quickly bent over. His posture was uneasy, but somehow he was able to stop it. A heavy shock shook his entire body.
above the gate. A shadow protruding from the ceiling cast a solid purple line at Priasis passing through the aisle. was an assassin
I can’t afford to stop with a sword. I turned and took the dagger.
A dagger was lodged in his left shoulder.
[‘Han (★★)’ has become poisoned. HP decreases at regular intervals.]
[Party on the verge of extinction!]
[The state of the master party is in danger!]
The knight swung a greatsword at me this time.
There is no feeling in the left arm where the dagger was stuck. I received the greatsword as if flowing. My body, unable to overcome the weight, was slammed against the wall of the aisle.
[‘Han (★★)’ has become bleeding. Physical strength decreases for a certain period of time.]
“Han!”
“If you stop, you will die by my hand!”
Freeasis paused for a moment, looked back at me, and nodded slightly. And started running again.
look over your left shoulder A purple liquid flowed from the half-studded dagger. I cut the blade as if it were brushing against the dagger. And as he got up, he swung his sword. The venom from the sword sprayed across the knight’s faceplate.
The knight grabbed his face.
“Did it get in your eyes?”
I grinned.
[‘Edith (★★★)’ is in a bleeding state. Stamina decreases at regular intervals.]
A crossbow was aimed at the target from the assassin’s sleeve.
Not to mention the target. It was Priasis passing through the castle gate. However, it was too far to jump to stop it.
I picked up a pebble from the floor and threw it.
ping!
While flying, the bolt collided with a stone and flew away. The assassin looked at me dumbfounded.
“What are you, you are a baby!”
I pulled out the dagger stuck in my left shoulder and threw it.
The dagger burrowed into the assassin’s hood. The assassin fell immediately.
Before long, the figure of Priasis disappeared beyond the gates.
“…after.”
I looked down.
The knight was holding his head and wriggling as if in agony.
He seemed to want to take off his face shield, but his arms struggled only on the outside of the helmet. I raised the greatsword next to the knight with one hand.
With all the power of the greatsword, he struck the knight’s head.
puck!
One side of the helmet was deeply dented, and black blood splattered through the gap.
The knight stopped moving like a dead insect.
After confirming that the knight and assassin were dead, I leaned against the wall as if collapsing.
Blood was pouring from the long cut. I tried to block the greatsword, but my posture wasn’t good.
[‘Han(★★)’ has been poisoned. Stamina decreases for a certain period of time.]
‘The speed at which the poison spreads is fast.’
I coughed.
The blood he vomited out was stained purple.
I leaned against the wall and sat down as if sliding.
“It’s like a real dog.”
5th floor, 10th floor, 15th floor.
There is no mission to wake up in good spirits.
‘I’m tired.’
I closed my eyes.
My work is done. The rest was whether the 2 parties could hold out until the target reached the target point. In terms of status, Aaron was injured by Edith and Jenna right before he died, and Iolka was incapable of magic.
After a while, a message emerged from the darkness.
[The escort target has escaped the city.]
[Stage cleared!]
[‘Han(★★)’ ‘Jenna(★★)’ ‘Aaron(★★)’ ‘Iolka(★★★)’ ‘Edith(★ ★★)’ Level up!]
[Reward – 100000G Iron Ore (A) X 3]
[MVP – ‘Han (★★)’]
‘Is anyone dead?’
All five of them have leveled up.
I smiled faintly.
