Chapter 389 Second Continental War (12)
At that time.
Mystique has received bad news from the skirmishers.
“Governor Dmitry has sent a pursuit party. It seems that they intend to repulse us first, rather than preparing for the next attack, as they moved before the repair of the walls was finished. Mr. Mystique. If we face our enemies like this, we will not be able to avoid annihilation.”
“… damn it.”
Mystique twisted her expression.
It was unexpected.
Ares insisted that Dmitri would definitely send a chase, but Mystique had other ideas.
Dmitry used the advantage of Mercury to win.
In a space where all sides are not protected, an all-out war with the Cronus Empire would be burdensome, and I did not think that the likes of Dmitri would dare to open the castle gates without Roman Dmitri.
Maybe he was in denial.
The consecutive defeats to Dmitri really hurt Mystique’s pride.
‘I can’t use the space movement magic properly with the remaining power. If I raised my strength excessively, my limbs would be torn apart in the dimensional rift. If I escaped alone, I would be able to save my life, but once again, as soon as I report the results, Lady Alexandre will kill me.’
recent.
Alexander’s planting was very uncomfortable.
On the outside, she seemed to maintain her composure, but Mystique didn’t know that she was quite angry at the variables created by Roman Dmitri.
A criminal record was needed. Clear evidence of your usefulness.
In order to regain strength and counterattack, even the defeated soldiers who followed him had to be saved.
“map.”
“yes?”
“Ask for a map!”
“I see.”
charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
I spread out the map on the simple table.
the northeast area.
There was no space to escape.
The outskirts meant that there were not that many roads to move, and there was only one way out, since the pursuing party would be approaching from Dmitri’s direction.
moving as far south as possible.
Once you have recovered enough mana after buying time, then you can turn the situation around by calling in additional troops through ‘space movement magic’.
‘Yes, the war is not over yet.’
Rather, this was an opportunity.
The Kronos Empire was only defeated by Mercury’s advantage, but if it had been faced in an open space from the beginning, it would have definitely overwhelmed Dmitri.
Then, from now on, it was a race against time.
Depending on how much time you take and how much you lure the opponent enough, you can get the result of defeating Dmitri’s pursuers at once.
blast furnace.
got a map
Mystique shouted.
“Everyone pack your bags. We will move south from now on.”
“All right.”
Dmitry.
They turned into the same temper as Roman Dmitry. Baring their ferocious teeth as if they were predators, they were menacing enough,
but it would clearly show them that there are classes of the same predators. The reason why Dmitri was able to run amok.
It’s not because they’re strong, it’s because Roman Dmitri’s single strength is beyond common sense.
took a step
I was in a hurry.
It was an unfamiliar march for Mystic, but there was no other way now.
But how far did you move?
Gradually.
“This is opposite Dmitry. Could it be that the Kronos Empire, which is called a great nation, is running away with its tail curled up?”
retreat to the south.
Chris was blocking the place with Dmitri’s soldiers.
* * *
Mystique’s expression hardened.
chris.
That he already showed up at Dmitry.
It was faster than expected.
And blocking the retreat of the South meant that he had already seen through his intentions and preoccupied the road.
‘To retreat… … .’
There was no
Dmitri’s men were already encircling the perimeter, and signal flares in the sky were calling in additional troops.
With the power of Mystique, only the person himself could escape through space movement.
Mystique would have done that normally, but the moment he saw Chris, a plan popped into his head.
‘Chris is Dmitri’s key figure. Even if I lose the war, if I kill that guy, I’ll be recognized as having achieved my own achievements.’
an imminent situation.
Silence did not mean peace.
The situation where each of them grabbed their weapons and looked at each other was not strange even when a desperate battle broke out.
It was then.
It was Mystique that broke the silence.
“Attack!”
“Attack!”
fault.
took a step back
As if waiting, Mystique fluttered the hem of her robe as the soldiers of the Cronus Empire rushed at her, generating magic.
“Thunder Storm.”
do not fall out.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
A cluster of lightning occurred.
The intense light, as if blinding, swept the surroundings with the powerful force that accompanied the storm.
Dmitri’s sorcerers did not stand still.
They also tried to block Mystic’s attack by quickly using defensive magic, but the destructive power of the 7th circle magic exceeded the normal standards.
Flash.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
“Cheak!”
“Aaaaaagh!”
Dmitry’s soldiers were swept away.
After killing dozens of soldiers in an instant, Mystique waved her arms and controlled the direction of the Thunder Storm.
one goal.
It was Chris.
However, if he revealed his intentions, he might not come out, so Mystique killed him as much as possible so that he had no choice but to come out.
In the meantime, the Kronos Empire’s forces attacked Dmitri’s soldiers.
Contrary to the momentum of the attack, Dmitri’s soldiers rather overwhelmed the imperial army in hand-to-hand combat.
Caang!
“die.”
hooked
The Imperial Army’s attack did not work.
Dmitri’s soldiers have shown their skills to exceed ordinary soldiers through training, and even as their colleagues were swept away by magic, they calmly responded to the attack.
The reason Dmitri was pushed against Kronos was not because of a qualitative difference.
It was because they were outnumbered, and in the current situation where the number of the imperial army was reduced, they could not deal with Dmitri’s soldiers with just a little more.
at last.
It was a fight between Mystique and Chris.
I saw Chris rushing in the middle of a bunch of intense lightning.
Papa papapat.
Blood spattered.
The Imperial forces facing Chris were slaughtered in the blink of an eye.
Ordinary soldier Aura Swordsman’s throat was blown away, and Chris’ eyes were also fixed on Mystique.
last 3 days.
Chris suppressed his anger.
Unlike Kevin, who started looking for Ares like a madman as soon as he arrived at Dmitri, Chris chose the best for Dmitri as rationally as possible.
That was what led the pursuit team.
He knew that if he reliably defeated the Cronus Imperial Army, he would be able to lead the situation in the future.
“Lightning Rain.”
Kwalung.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Mystique exploded her magic.
Lights rose from the darkening sky, and powerful lightning struck wherever Chris moved.
It was a sight that trivialized even one human being.
The magic was truly a natural disaster, and at some point Chris could not be seen due to the lightning that continued to strike.
‘Is he dead?’
Moment.
he thought awkwardly.
Chris is not a monster like Roman Dmitri.
He thought that even against Ares, if he had fallen to his knees, he would not survive the magical storm.
But then.
sudden.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
through the lightning
Chris came out.
Mystique opened her eyes.
In an unbelievable situation, he tried to use ‘Blink’ by generating magic.
That moment.
Flash.
‘One island.’
A solid line that develops on the neck.
Mystique’s eyes shook at the twisting vision.
* * *
It was a great victory.
The imperial army was completely destroyed.
People were delighted with the tremendous criminal record, but they showed awe at Chris’ powerlessness that they witnessed in the midst of it.
chris.
He alone slaughtered thousands of soldiers.
No one could stop the swordsmanship that was so fast that he couldn’t even check it properly, and the scene where he handled Mystique in particular shocked everyone.
Chris’ swordsmanship was fast enough to cut through Blink.
People knew that Chris was strong, but they never thought he would be this strong.
actually.
The reason why Chris was able to subdue Mystique at once had to do with Dmitri’s training.
New world.
Roman Dmitry recognized magic.
He has been steadily training how to deal with wizards while causing a magic revolution called the opening of the upper division.
Explosion of magical power.
How to respond in a situation that stimulates the senses sensitively, what are the loopholes of magic.
Through constant training, Dmitri’s swordsmen and mages complemented each other’s weaknesses.
Wizards have become skilled enough to not allow swordsmen to approach in a normal way, and swordsmen have learned how to attack an opponent in a situation where magic power is exploding, as Chris just showed.
Roman Dmitry was the sorcerer’s nemesis.
And of course.
The swordsmen who received his teaching also grew into the type of existence that magicians really hate.
Pak.
I brushed off the blood on my sword.
Chris just went all out.
His strong point of using a quick sword combined with Mystique easier than expected, but that wasn’t a very satisfactory result for Chris.
if you were stronger They could have captured Mystique alive.
However, knowing how the battlefield would change if he allowed Blink, he risked his life and decapitated him.
Mystique dispersed in smoke.
Since the goal of destroying the Imperial Army was accomplished, Chris gave orders to his soldiers.
“Clear the battlefield quickly. As soon as we finish Dmitri’s payoff, we’ll head for the Cairo Western Front.”
“All right.”
“And Volcan.”
“yes.”
Volkan stepped forward.
Drenched in blood from a bout of war, he exhaled heavily and looked at Chris.
“Kevin is walking around looking for Ares. If you really face Ares, even Kevin won’t be able to survive, so send troops to help Kevin.”
“Even if it wasn’t, I was worried.”
Volkan nodded.
Ares.
It was a dangerous existence.
If he had joined forces with Mystique, the battle just now wouldn’t have ended so easily.
Early moning.
Chris and the soldiers tried to dissuade Kevin from going out to find Ares.
It was a decision made because he knew how dangerous Ares was, but Kevin’s eyes were gone.
Although Dmitri was victorious, there were corpses everywhere.
If Ares hadn’t betrayed him, there wouldn’t have been this much damage.
‘It’s not that I don’t understand his feelings, but Kevin’s strength alone will never be able to handle Ares.’
It was certain.
Volkan gathered his forces.
Once he locates Kevin, Chris also intends to sort things out and help him.
It was then.
“Kevin?!”
tall.
I stopped walking.
I heard someone screaming in surprise.
Chris looked in the direction of the sound.
Moment.
Chris’ eyes widened.
“… What are you?”
It was really Kevin.
And, to their horror, Ares, who was caught in his grip, was being dragged along with a bloodied face.

That afternoon.
Umberto’s situation was the worst.
They convened an emergency meeting in a situation where they were losing consecutively after the fall of the foremost defensive position.
one of the leaders said.
“At this rate, there is no hope. Although reinforcements were sent from the Franks and Redford, they could not stop Kronos’ advance. You need a way, a way! With both Dmitri and Cairo Hector under attack, Umberto won’t last long.”
Umberto.
They were not far from the border and the capital.
It was literally in a state of fire, so I had to somehow see the game in the foremost defensive position.
It was hopeless.
Some even regretted their union with Dmitry.
“We have done the unmanageable. Kronos is a great power. Their strength was not only what they could see, and if they attacked like this at the same time, even Roman Dmitry would not be able to afford to take care of other countries. how do i do this Even if you wait for the help of the Kingdom Alliance, if they are defeated, all hope is lost. And honestly… … Isn’t it difficult for Cairo and Dmitri to block Kronos’ attack?”
It was stifling.
Cairo Dmitry Hector.
The three kingdoms were attacked.
A coalition of kingdoms was formed to enlist their support, but the situation was nowhere near as hopeful.
said Calderon Drake.
“It’s something you shouldn’t think about. Following Dmitri was Umberto’s only hope. Seeing how the kingdom of Odelia was destroyed, the option to follow the empire was impossible in the first place.”
“I’m just saying this because I’m frustrated!”
all of them.
I knew the truth.
Roman Dmitri opened the breath of the kingdom union, but he was the only hope, so he couldn’t help but feel sick.
It was then.
In the meeting room where opinions were divided for a long time, unexpected news arrived.
“This is the news of victory! Dmitri completely defeated the Kronos Empire army this morning!”
“what!?”
Moment.
Everyone was startled.
Dmitri heard that hundreds of thousands of imperial troops attacked and that even the 7th circle mage joined the attack.
It was an unfavorable war without Roman Dmitry.
So I thought that I might not be able to hold on for a few days and collapse, but I did not expect to hear the news that they defeated the Imperial army so quickly.
Things have changed.
The leader, who had only spat out desperate words, spoke.
“As expected, Dmitry! They deserve to be at the head of the United Kingdom! If that’s the case, things will be different. If Dmitri can send reinforcements, we can take care of the fire right away.”
“Wouldn’t that be difficult? For Dmitri, the top priority is to solve the problem of bordering Cairo and Hector. In particular, if Hector collapses in Valhalla, Dmitri must prepare for an all-out war with Valhalla.”
“… this.”
complexion turned pale.
It was a mountain beyond a mountain.
two empires.
The union of the two major mountain ranges took my breath away the more I thought about it.
But embarrassingly.
In addition to the news of Dmitri’s victory, they heard an additional truly shocking report that was unbelievable.
“Just now. Hector has won his first battle against Valhalla! The war is not over yet. The kingdom union will not collapse like this!”
Hector’s victory.
It was an absurd result.
Umberto’s leaders couldn’t understand with common sense what the heck was going on in the Salamander Continent.
