I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 309

#After returning, the family was ruined (310)

“What about the casualties?”

“Around three thousand people.”

“So that we can give the soldiers some rest.”

“Yes sir.”

After completing the report, the imperial knight ordered the soldiers to rest. Only then did the soldiers put down their weapons and sit down on the floor. Their eyes were full of fatigue that could not be hidden. It was only natural that he faced a large army of over 100,000 people and then moved on without sleeping even a wink. He also had to deal with a pursuit party. Ethan approached Ysera. Her face had become gaunt.

Not only did he summon the monarch and have him descend on him, but he also actively dealt with the soldiers during this battle.

It was natural that he looked tired.

“Are you feeling okay?”

“…Yes, it’s still worth holding on. “What about the Duke?”

“so so. “I will stay here for the rest of the day and then move on, so get some rest.”

“…Would it be okay? Even the chase team came…”

“They are just sacrificial lambs. They probably won’t send any more troops. So, you can rest.”

“…yes.”

The entire army rested for about half a day. It was the same for Ethan. I continued to meditate while sitting cross-legged.

When dealing with ministers.

And when he faced the demon dragon.

After descending Lorotia, time continued to review each movement made and find the most efficient sword strike. The practice of recovering the past was very efficient. This was because it was a time to catch a glimpse of the movements of the Absolute, not the Transcendent.

In my imagination, I searched for the most efficient distribution of power and posture structure one by one. Next, training continued to demonstrate perfect swordsmanship. Although there were very subtle differences one by one, my posture was being corrected.

A swordsmanship that pursues only extreme efficiency.

As if putting the parts together, the swordsmanship applied one by one was changing him little by little.

Wow!

Wow!

The muscles began to slightly contort in order to become a knight who could swing the sword most efficiently. Ever since Ysera began summoning the monarch, he had been growing every moment.

This was because the desire to explore new areas gradually led the stagnant state to the next path.

The absolute state.

For some reason, that point didn’t seem that far away. The more I understood efficient swordsmanship, the more so it became.

* * *

There were numerous raids before we reached the northern coast.

The reason was simple. This was because news spread throughout the North that the unit that was thought to be virtually invincible had tasted defeat. There was a wide difference between the skills of a unit that had never been defeated and a unit that had tasted the bitter taste of defeat.

At this point, the high-ranking dragons who had been hunkering down in the north, waiting for the storm to pass, began to move one by one.

Even though they are a group of defeated soldiers, if we can make a contribution to completely annihilating them…

at best, we will be able to build up enough reputation to advance to the capital instead of being a noble in the rough north. Exuberant desire made me forget fear.

However, the Duke’s army was not an easy opponent. Those who moved individually faced a bad ending.

Before a proper battle could be fought, his head was immediately blown off by the duke’s sword.

Win after win.

After the five units were destroyed, the dragons who had tried to block the army began to cower once again. When the ship returned to the shore where it was anchored.

The remaining troops were about 20,000.

“Are you going back?”

“We were ordered to wait here.”

“Do whatever you want.”

“May I ask your Excellency what you plan to do?”

“All my work has been completed. “There is no reason to stay here any longer.”

“All right.”

Ethan nodded without hesitation. Although he had been in command of them up until now, strictly speaking, he did not have control.

It’s just a temporary rental.

Just dragging the dead people to the shore was all that needed to be done. I didn’t have the heart to blush just to send it back when I said I wouldn’t.

In the end, if you look at it fundamentally, they weren’t even their own soldiers.

Ardan’s army had already returned to its territory a long time ago. Because we have successfully completed the task of stirring up Dragonia. I got on the anchored ship with Isera. It was a ship that was waiting until the last moment.

Now, the only army left in Dragonia was the imperial army with the mark of Ardan.

A position could be seen building a position on the coast. Leaving that behind, the ship began to rise out of the sea. The southern continent was moving away. It was around this time that the southern continent became as small as a pea.

Ethan took out the crystal ball in his arms. Not long after infusing mana, the screen was connected.

What appeared in the crystal ball were Decal and Theron’s faces.

‘It connects well.’

Ethan nodded in satisfaction. Because the Western Continent has a well-established magical communication network, it was possible to communicate even if it was located quite far away.

The Southern Continent was different. Although the dragons also used crystal balls, the magical communication network that built them was completely different from that of humans.

Establishing communications through Ilia had a great effect.

If we hadn’t done that, we wouldn’t have been able to reach the capital of the Southern Continent from here.

-Meeting His Excellency the Duke. Are you returning to the West Continent?

“For now. “What is the situation in Apraxia?”

Apraxia.

It was a word referring to the capital of the Dragon Clan.

-The whole thing is confusing. Basically, the general dragon race is in a mood to welcome the return of the war hero, but…

Dekal’s report continued.

He was currently infiltrating Apraxia, the capital of the Balaur tribe. This was possible because he had mastered Yonginhwa to perfection.

The best source of information on how to take advantage of even hibernation, which reduces physical activity to the limit.

As if that wasn’t enough, he had even taken lessons in the dragon language. It wasn’t that difficult to infiltrate the capital, which wasn’t even a royal castle. Theron was also infiltrated into the capital. I gathered information from the two. The overall atmosphere could be said to be one in which fame and power were rapidly focused on Demon Dragon, who had suddenly emerged as a war hero.

“Other than that, is there any other announcement from the Demon Dragon side?”

?Yes, there is not much to talk about except for dealing with the recently defeated chase team. However, currently, the general dragons of Apraxia are strongly demanding that the demon dragons remain. Even the defeated army showed such majesty…

Dekal reported carefully. The defeat of the Duke’s army. After that, the story that numerous dragons stood in front of Ardan to claim merit spread throughout the capital.

Most of the public opinion thought that as the myth of invincibility was broken, it could cause great damage to the duke army. However, when I opened the lid, the result was completely different.

Unlike in the first battle, where all the shield soldiers were lost. From the battle that followed, enormous exchange costs began to appear.

Simply put, when you kill one human soldier, at least three dragon soldiers die. It was an exchange fee that was completely incomprehensible to common sense. The dragon tribe’s pursuit party suffered a truly bitter defeat.

Naturally, the dragon people could not help but feel fear. Because the duke’s strength was still the same. They were not defeated because they were weak.

It’s just that Ma Ryong, who was the commander-in-chief, had exceptional skills. It was literally an instant for this trend to take root throughout the capital.

As if that wasn’t enough, it began to lead to a massive public outcry. The content was simple. This means that the demon dragon must remain in the capital.

This public opinion quickly began to gain strength. If the duke army invades again, who will stop them? All the ministers who had been loyal to the monarch had already died a long time ago. Normal top-level dragons cannot stop the operation.

Therefore, the ruler, the Demon Dragon, must protect the capital.

In addition to this public opinion, some say that doubts about the monarch are spreading.

?In the end, wasn’t the reason Ardan invaded Dragonia because of the monarch’s mistake?

-Nevertheless, the monarch did not even come up with any measures. If the brilliant Demon Dragon had not personally come to the capital, all the people in the capital might have faced death.

-The monarch abetted the sacrifice.

?Is he really a great leader?

It was a complaint that I would never have voiced out loud under normal circumstances. But things were different now. As we experienced a national crisis, it was inevitable that dissatisfaction would build up against a leader who did not even budge.

What’s more, wasn’t it said that even that demon dragon wasn’t summoned directly by the monarch, but walked in on its own?

The people were not interested in the truth. It’s just that I get easily boiled over by provocative materials. This was especially true regarding this incident.

If it were not for the great ruler, their safety would have been threatened. It was a good opportunity to tear apart a monarch who had been considered sacred.

“Didn’t the royal side put out a statement at all?”

-yes. They continue to remain silent, as if they have no eyes or ears at all. It is a structure that inevitably causes complaints to continue to pile up. Because those presumed to be the Demon Dragon’s minions are continuing to spread evil rumors.

‘That’s strange.’

Ethan tilted his head. The monarch must have noticed this atmosphere by now. Despite this, there is no rebuttal.

Is it because the hands and feet that represent his opinion have been cut off?

Unless it is.

‘…Are they saying they don’t even care about those factors at all?’

I couldn’t know the exact truth. Even if they had infiltrated Theron and Thecal into the capital, they could not order them to investigate the castle.

It was clearly the center of the dragon tribe. Not only were the security levels at different levels, but the risk of being caught behind the scenes was too high if one attempted to investigate the monarch directly. In order to track the monarch’s movements, an expert at hiding will be needed.

“Okay, I understand.”

-yes.

“Oh, and…”

-Yes, sir.

“I plan to move there myself soon.”

-…yes? Your Excellency yourself?

“okay.”

Unusual atmosphere.

The Demon Dragon’s ambition had already reached its peak.

This was a fact that could easily be noticed just by looking at the spread of agitators throughout the capital.

Rebelling openly meant that he had no intention of prolonging the power struggle.

A conflict will certainly erupt in the near future.

‘Has the aftermath of the war spread much further than expected?’

Now the Demon Dragon was throwing a bet. Why is it moving so quickly? It was highly likely that the aftermath of the war had spread further than expected. It must have gained greater fame and standing than previously expected.

To the point where if you stretch out your hands just a little more, you can take over the position of monarch. At that moment…

the crystal ball in my arms rang.

It was a communication from the demon dragon.
