Knights, Let’s Smash Them

41 – What’s killing my kid! (5)

It was overwhelming.

There is no other way to describe this Dalian.

Baron Kirten could now understand why Magistrate Alroy of Luvern and other members of the Snow Leopard Knights were smiling when Barbara was pointed at them.

“This!!”

The massive greatsword is swung. Barbara stared blankly at the sword, then stepped on it exactly at the right moment as it rushed at him.

Tadak.

With two light steps, he evaded the attack so easily.

Her quicksword rushed once more.

This time, Franken, who had pierced his side precisely, sighed and sat down in his seat.

Baron Kirten is also not very versed in martial arts.

I couldn’t fully count the attacks that accelerated in an instant and stabbed me in succession.

At least ten attacks must have been successful.

On the other hand, Franken never reached Barbara. Even though he used both his fists and his feet to launch a near-real attack!

Barbara reacted lightly and avoided even that.

Insanity.

A talent that negates all efforts and experiences.

‘When I grow up, I will become a swordsman who will leave his name in history.’

Baron Kirten had no choice but to admit it.

It is said that after the knights were destroyed, Count Rupel gathered talented people from all over the county.

It was a rough stone, no, it was a diamond that had already been completed.

He was once again in awe of Count Rupel’s insight.

Damn!!

“Aagh!!”

Franken, who did not give up even though his stance collapsed once, ended up dropping his weapon with Barbara’s finishing blow, which aimed precisely at the wrist joint.

The faces of the other Knights Templar instantly darkened at the disastrous appearance.

“Game 1, winner! Barbara!! Next runner, forward!”

Of course, there were no surprises in the next match.

3 Out of 3 losses.

It was a clean defeat of the People’s Knights.

***

I felt like a ten-year-old congestion was going down.

Wow, that’s cool.

Anyway, it’s acceptable.

Look at those people’s things who are still in pain, spread out on the floor.

They must have lived together in the Baron’s Territory, but would it be okay if they shook that sh*t in front of the regular knights?

Well, he must have climbed without knowing the topic.

“It’s a total defeat.”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

At my words, Heinz shrugged his shoulders and replied.

He was pointed out next to Barbara, but there was no way that a reconnaissance knight who was treated as the most elite among knights in the first place could not be dealt with by a popular knight.

Next was Vice-Captain Emain.

She was injured in battle and was practically a retired knight, but she is still a knight who has awakened her Aura.

Unlike Franken, who endured several rounds due to the difference in weight class.

It was only natural that her people’s knights who pointed her out would fall out after her only two or three sword strikes.

“Ah! Why don’t you name me!!!!”

And only Lonz, who was the only one who was full of expectations, only howled with an unfair expression.

Ahmyo, I can never point it out.

Even if it’s me, I don’t point out guys like Ronz.

If Franken was a 13 guy who likes real power fights and not a mean guy full of Gao, he would have picked Lonz.

From the moment he had already chosen Barbara, his honor had fallen to the ground, and his pride as a man had been thoroughly trampled on as he was beaten up.

Two heads.

If I had just picked Lance, I would have been able to lick her mouth.

You pick Barbara to beat that one?

‘Life is a real battle. f*ck you.’

I looked at Franken, who was stumbling around with a look of resentment.

It must be very dog-like.

Not only did the girl who was twice as small as he was harpooned, but the teammates he had selected and selected were defeated overwhelmingly.

“Then, let’s end our sparring here. Thank you all for your hard work!”

I said, shaking my hands.

At least for today, those people’s idiots will never play a game.

As expected, today was a worthwhile day to keep the peace of Tiffen Village.

***

The interview with Baron Kirten was quite valuable.

Highway─, here, the plan to open and expand the road, commonly referred to as the “Iron Road,” Has been able to grasp the thread quite a bit.

The trade road leading to Jarhead, Petalonto, Tiffen and Monderto.

Of course, I’ll have to discuss the detailed plan with Count Rupel’s vassals, but in any case, if the baron, who should be the main pillar, showed a positive reaction.

That fact alone could be an important key to convincing the vassals.

In addition, Baron Kirten told me that he would invite me to his estate soon.

-We will serve you wholeheartedly. Please come and play with Director Xianne.

-hahahahaha! Thank you very much for that favor.

I was thinking of going there at least once, but the baron said he would personally invite me, so there was no reason to refuse.

As a kind of commemoration, I gave Baron Kirten and Baroness Mrs. Kirten a piece of gold made by a dwarf artisan in our town of Tiffen.

He made a promise to me that he would always prepare the finest wine from the South for the fact that I like alcohol.

And more.

The tooth decay that I had been suffering from for so long was also relieved.

“Ha ha!! You guys, the People’s Knights are doomed! This place is now taken over by White Meadow!!”

A mercenary cat beast who raises his middle finger at Franken as if to avenge what they have suffered.

At that appearance, Franken and his party looked back at the baron as if they were dumbfounded.

“I, Baron! What the hell is this…… !!”

“I realized it clearly through couple training a little while ago. That our knights’ strength is sorely lacking.”

“Yes…… ?”

“We have decided to hire white meadow mercenaries in addition to the People’s Knights of Baron Kirten.”

In fact, it is said that Franken’s party has done quite a bit of evil up until now.

He gave a stern warning whenever a complaint came in from within the territory, but he never thought that he would act in a place other than the territory he was in charge of.

I just told you to take our bestie friends who are living extravagantly in Tiffen Village.

Both personality and skills have been clearly verified over the past few weeks.

Perhaps when the fight broke out earlier, if Chen had rushed in with sincerity, that young Franken would have been slaughtered in 4 seconds?

That’s why Baron Kirten decided to draw a clear line from now on towards Franken and his subordinates.

“I am not canceling the contract. Command may need to be readjusted. As of the present time, the leader of the People’s Knights is ‘Chen’.”

“What…… Called…… !!”

Franken’s eyes widen, and his fists tremble.

“So you’re telling us to work for these hairy bastards!?”

“What can I not do? Originally, the knights belong to the monarch.”

“Luvern…… ! Administrator…… !!”

Even the Imperial Black Lion Knights, the pinnacle of the Imperial Knights, couldn’t even make a sound when the Emperor spoke, and everything had to be repaired.

In the first place, why did Yvona travel all over the empire for a month?

You have to peel it from above.

We all know that, but Franken and some of the Minjungknights never seem to want to admit it.

Then what should I do?

Are you going to rebel?

“The remaining members may remain. However, those who do not accompany us will understand that the contract is automatically terminated.”

Baron Kirten said in a cold voice.

In the meantime, I couldn’t help it, so I’ve been watching him a lot. Even though there are sure substitutes, the baron isn’t soft enough to be attracted to his personal affection.

“…… I will stay.”

“What? Youngest, you traitor bastard!”

“Maknae? Did you treat the youngest properly? He makes me do chores every day, and beats me up if I don’t listen! Is that a slave or the youngest?”

“I will stay too. I’m sick of fighting villagers now. I didn’t say that I wanted to join the People’s Knights because I wanted to do this!”

Unsurprisingly, the unity of Franken’s gang was weak.

Well, since the captain is like that, can there be any bond between the members?

As soon as he lightly cleared the way out, the resentment that had been piled up on Franken all this time poured out like a flood.

Surely, the 10 members who had been with them until now stand right on the side of the white meadow, each holding a weapon.

“Mr…. Foot…… !!!”

Franken gritted his teeth and stood up with his greatsword.

Worthy of division.

It wasn’t enough that he suffered a miserable defeat from a young girl, and in an instant, even the position of leader of the Minjung Knights was usurped.

Even the position was taken by no one else, but by the captain of the mercenary corps, whom he had quarreled with and harassed.

You must have already realized that the only thing left to say is to leave the knights right now.

It was very simple for the Minjung Knights, who had been living their lives in their own way, to become insignificant wandering mercenaries again.

“It’s a pity, I could have washed it if I had gone with you.”

At Chen’s blatant teasing, Franken spat his phlegm on the ground and glared at the baron.

“I hope you will not regret it.”

Look at that bastard, he doesn’t even take the knight’s manners towards someone who was a monarch until just now.

This is why people’s personality is so important?

Anyway.

The light happenings that occurred during Baron Kirten’s visit ‘seemed’ to end like that.

“Where is Lucy?”

“Uh…… I’m fine too…….”

It was around evening when I realized that Lucy was gone.

I thought Jaesik was always by my side, but when I went to visit him when it was almost dinner time, he was gone.

Lucy wanders around all the time during the day, but in the evening, she was always a child by my side and Captain Xianne.

I was able to find Lucy’s whereabouts by immediately asking the goblins around.

– Gone in the direction of the mine!

-I tried to stop it, but it disappeared quickly!!

The goblins guarding the direction of the mine pointed towards the already darkened forest with bewildered faces.

-What did you say?

-I will definitely accept your apology, so wait…….

-Damn it.

Even though he’s still young, he’s definitely half-human, half-dragon.

Even if she got along well with the goblins, there was no way that the goblins, who were the lowest level monsters, could stop Lucy if she was sincere.

And it seemed that Lucy had disappeared to look for the ex-Minjung Knights wandering around here.

As I said before, gold dragons have an excellent ability to distinguish between good and evil.

Once they decide to pursue it, there is no villain they cannot pursue.

Just as a red dragon discovers a sleeping volcano, and a blue dragon discovers a deep, dark, silent abyss by instinct.

Gold Dragon instinctively distinguishes between the good and the evil.

There is no distinction between monsters, dragons, humans, and other heterogeneous races. Gold dragons judge opponents only with the concept of ‘good and evil’.

Praise and trust for the righteous.

A judge of dragons who judges and condemns the wicked.

Because that was the gold dragon.

To be honest, I’m not only worried about Lucy’s safety.

She was very afraid that if she did, she would murder them.

They weren’t even something young Lucy could get her hands dirty with.

If Lucy puts out her fist with sincerity, those who haven’t properly awakened their mana will literally explode.

No, he doesn’t even have to go there.

The moment you use even a dragon roar, most ordinary people will lose their fighting spirit and collapse on the spot.

In other words, whether or not Lucy is dangerous is an issue that is out of the question from the start.

It was quite a headache for me to have to thoroughly hide the fact that she was half-man, half-dragon, no matter what she was.

‘Please…… Lucy, stay still!’

I prayed earnestly in my heart, and ran out through the bushes in search of Lucy.

And not far away.

I was able to find former Minjung Knights who were confronting Lucy.
