My Villains Episode 339
58. Reunion (8)
The battle ended with the death of the troll dium.
The spirits faded away like candlelight, swept away by the cool wind, and the troll warriors who accepted the spirits of the beasts and ran amok groaned and cut their throats.
Most of the bloody mane rcenaries were scattered imdiately, and there were only a handful of them stirring up the main force of Count Os.
Of course, he fled in all directions to save his life right after the whole troll troll had been slaughtered.
The Antrum Army was exhausted from the battle that started with the night raid, and the Ulkar Army was too weak to run through the night, so they couldn’t pursue it. Of course, Utequai and Fritz and so other rambunctious guys chased the enemy, but they returned after getting drunk for a while.
And finally, the ti to unwind has co.
“Nix.”
As they approached by driving the bicorn, Atalanta, who had been holding her breath, threw down her white spear and flew away.
“Ugh. Hey, be careful-”
As if it didn’t matter what she said, she took off my helt and started kissing .
Reason ordered Atalanta to be pushed away, but instinct paralyzed by the sweet scent of jasmine stopped it.
Great.” The subordinates, including Confidre, ca this way and stopped. Except for Dervish, who was whistling with a sinister expression, everyone was pretending to be embarrassed.
Atalanta, who did not pay attention to the gaze of my n, stopped kissing only when six or seven horsen dressed in red cloth and iron rings ca running.
“Oh hyala- Napidot!”
“……uh?”
The middle-aged man running in the lead among the nude cavalryn seed familiar. Who was it?
“Sir Phoenix.”
The warrior who caught my gaze greeted with an iron helt under a black hood. It was only when I heard the voice that I rembered his na.
“Agos.”
“long ti no see.”
Argos is an archer who freely handles a longbow as tall as himself, and was one of the Nu Dane warriors who accompanied Atalanta when he cooperated with Longville.
“…The last ti I saw you, I was greatly blessed. I will never forget the rcy shown to and the entire al-Qadari clan back then.”
It was this Agos who begged for her life when Atalanta lost her sense of reason for so reason and ran amok and was subdued by .
After accepting his greetings, he looked around and saw that six n and won clad in thick armor and ard with curved swords were following him. It was clear that they were elite warriors of the Nudein tribe called ‘Hareskis’.
“Sir, excuse for a second.”
After bowing politely, Agos poured out words as if reprimanding Atalante. It was the language of the Nudin people, otherwise called ‘Goulan’.
Atalanta did not hide her annoyance and answered in their language, then passed the white thorn to Argos.
“Oh, enough of the nagging. I’m busy.”
“Napidat.”
“Stop, stop. Everyone must be tired, so go get so rest. I will take care of myself.”
“……Uhm.”
Agos let out a deep sigh with the face of a father seeing his immature daughter, and retreated with the Hareskis.
“uh?”
Atalanta opened her eyes wide as if she had finally discovered my n.
“Are these the kids you have?”
“What is that?”
“It’s the first face everyone sees.”
Cathedral knight Kabar had returned to the camp first, and Fritz was nowhere to be seen. So the only ones following were Confair and five other soldiers, the night watchman, Dylan, the spearman, McKay, and the iron-clad Taggart.
“I don’t see him. Who is that….
A boring kid? shooting a bow.”
“who? call?” “Oh, call. Can’t you see him and the short bald head?”
“You an Steedman?”
I laughed bitterly and scratched my cheek.
“I’m sowhere else for so reason.”
“Hmm?”
“That’s not what’s important now, what the hell happened? How are you here?”
Atalanta was perched on the front of the bicorn saddle, facing .
It was a bit embarrassingly close-knit, and thanks to that, so of the subordinates who had never heard of her wondered, ‘Who else is that woman?’ I was looking at you.
Either that or not, she just touched my ear lobe with a twirling face.
“I rember? We t before.”
“…You an quasi-dinsional? That your clan’s camp?”
“It wasn’t a dream after all.”
“of course. It was at that ti that we talked about Iope.”
“that’s right. Then, do you rember when I said that I went under Prince Ulkar for a while?”
“O” Heh.
You said you planned to rely on Ulkar to gather forces before reclaiming the clan’s holand.
I nodded my head and added a comnt.
“Apart from that, I heard so news. I heard that you are stationed in Port Auduenne.”
“uh. I was pushed back by the fish guys for a while, but I got it back quickly. That was almost two months ago.”
“So you ca here in the anti.”
“yes. For so reason, the ‘Witch of Praise’ quietly withdrew, and what was urgent at the ti was the ‘King of Death’ and the undead army.”
At that ti, Ulkar summoned most of his troops to his High Castle. It was a plan to confront the Elector Counts of Mittergerland after fighting the undead army.
“But the work was cut in half. Thanks to you.”
Since the undead army was crushed at Seteniora Monastery, the Ulkar army prepared for a battle with the Elector Counts while protecting High Castle.
“In the anti, that woman found a wyvern. Did you see dozens passing over the clouds?”
Atalanta pointed to Ulkar, who was talking with General Macneil and others in the camp where black smoke rose far away, and pointed to the knight guarding the side.
“Everyone calls him ‘The Birdhawk Knight,’ but it must be because he likes his eyes.”
It was Gisela Winged, called the sixth knight of the Silver Prince.
From the outside, she looked like a pretty woman wearing a lily-patterned cape, but she was a famous knight who had been known for ten years.
He hadn’t t since he had been away for a while on family matters. But apart from that, it seed that he had a pretty deep relationship with Ulkar.
…No, I think it’s more than that when I look in your eyes. I’m a bit confused.
“Is that why the prince ca in person to chase down the dragon knights of Topal?”
“uh. It was a situation where reconnaissance was needed anyway, so I only brought the best
among the guardsn .”
“You said there was a situation that needed reconnaissance?”
“Bloodmane rcenaries. About a week ago, I got information that it crossed only the blade.”
Well, we from Antrum expected the arrival of those dragons, so there’s no way that Ulkar, who was guarding the Plateau, didn’t know about it.
“Did you get in there?”
“Even my kids are not good at dealing with horses. And sohow, I just got the hang of it.”
” persimmon’?”
“Yeah.”
Atalanta smiled wide and cool. His eyes were dark, and his eyes were dark amber, and thanks to that, they were in a subtle harmony with the purple hair of the void.
What is that hair color called? Is it ash gray or ash purple?
“I thought I’d et you if I followed the prince.”
“How do you know that?”
“I told you. Because it’s a feeling.”
“really?”
“Well, I heard that you will bring reinforcents from Lianwell.”
I also had a need for face to keep the upper body in close contact with each other, so I stopped the bicorn at an appropriate place.
It was around the ti that the reins were roughly tied to a poplar tree that was still intact without a trace of soot at the edge of the camp.
“…It’s been a while, isn’t it?”
When I turned around at Atalanta’s cold voice, I saw a beauty riding a dark horse approaching among the n driving horses.
“Heyla.
“You must be tired from waking up, so co and sit down.”
Blinking quietly, at my invitation, she got off her horse and handed the reins to Umberta. Then he walked slowly and t Atalanta’s eyes.
“Yeah, it’s been a while.”
“How are you today? If you still get it wrong, do you solve it in a fun way like ‘then’?”
“no.”
“Oh yeah? Maybe you’ve decided to change your strategy’?”
“no.”
“…No?”
“huh. I didn’t have to use it that way. for a while.”
We didn’t even say a few words, but the morning air was doubly cold.
“You are very proud. Where are the Nyx bunch and Ellen?”
“…Each of them has their own circumstances, so they’re in different places for a while.” “aha. So that’s what he did.” I let out a deep sigh at the not-so-friendly atmosphere between Heila and Atalanta.
“…is this deja vu? I think I reconciled them once in a similar situation.”
“that’s right. We made peace.”
Atalanta shrugged her shoulders with a calm expression.
“But isn’t it strange that I greet him with a smile hahahoho?”
“Do you think so too?” Heila replied with an expressionless face.
“well. Anyway, I can’t sell anyone a smile.”
“what?”
“The Nudes are good at that.”
“Har carbatu.”
Heyla turned her head away as if it was not worth responding to Atalante’s muttering, which could be guessed to be abusive even from a cursory listen.
I cupped my forehead and there was silence for a mont.
Eson, covered in dirt, said, ‘What is this. I can’t breathe…’ Dervish muttered, covered in dark green bodily fluid of unknown origin, and replied, ‘Shut up, idiot.’
“Sir Phoenix!”
A very cheerful voice from sowhere broke the tension.
“Ah, Princess Theodora.”
“Oh, that was great.”
Theodora had thrown off not only the three-color brilliance, but also the heavy full helm. Light blonde hair, light green eyes, and a bright smile seed to drive away the darkness.
“What are you talking about?”
“These boots. I guessed that it was a magic tool, but I never imagined that it would fly like a bird. It was to the point that I admired your boldness without realizing it.”
“Ah…
“The ‘Fall from the Sky’ that I showed you before must have grown the wall of the sutra. My hamstrings still tingle when I think of the mories of that ti, but my heart beats at the thought that one day I will overco that ordeal and gain great courage.”
Seeing Theodora smiling brightly and chattering away, Heila just blinked her eyes. Atalanta murmured, ‘What is Alkarf like?’, but the voice she spat unconsciously was quite loud, so the princess imdiately turned her gaze to her.
“Oh, there was also ‘Aran Hares’.”
“Aran Hares?”
At my questionable gaze, Atalanta stepped out with an awkward smile.
“It’s a Goulan word for a high-ranking female warrior, and it’s similar to my nickna… Whispering that, she bowed to Theodora.
“It is an honor to have the opportunity to et you again, Princess.”
“Yeah, nice to et you too.”
Theodora, who had been chattering with her pure appearance until just now, showed a very natural attitude befitting her status.
“I saw you and your warriors in action. It was great. With the blessing of the Lord, my maternal uncle received great blessings.”
“…thank you.” I heard that the nude people’s religion ‘Goulan’ has the sa roots as the Kwangmyeong Church, but there is a big difference in doctrine in that they worship a personal god.
It was for this reason that the Church of El Ganore and the Church of Calandari, who regarded each other as brothers on the surface, regarded Goulan as an obvious heretic.
Whether she didn’t know this, or if she knew it and pretended not to know it, Theodore continued with a gentle smile.
“You seem to know Lord Phoenix Aran Hares?”
“I’ve been in a relationship before… I didn’t know that the princess was acquainted with Atalante.”
“There is nothing to say that we know each other. Did you just say hello through your lodging? Since he is an arcanist with excellent skills, I wanted to see his skill once, but it turned out to be an impossible battle.”
At that complint, Atalanta scratched her neck with an awkward expression. Theodora continued with a smile.
“But as my paladin, I had to warn you.”
“yes’?”
“It can be misunderstood to be sowhat inappropriate. Although the ethnicity and culture are heterogeneous, there are laws that must be followed, so be careful.”
“…What do you an by that?”
When Atalanta asked back, dumbfounded, the princess deliberately put on a stern expression.
“Sir Phoenix and Miss Heila here are engaged in marriage. Even if you share your feelings as a comrade, you must keep the line when dealing with the opposite sex. You’d better keep that in mind.”
Atalanta was speechless, and Heila looked up at Theodora, blinking her slightly enlarged eyes.
w…… Uh ”
M3
Theodora is the granddaughter of King Milanol and the niece of Duke Topal, and at the sa ti an anointed mber of the Church of Calandari.
From her point of view, since I was a knight of my maternal uncle, there was a justification for being out of place. Also, as a priest, she had the right to preach on the law.
In the end, it would be best to shut up in this situation, but seeing Atalante with a gloomy expression, I couldn’t stay still.
“Princess.”
“hmm? Tell , Sir Phoenix.”
“Thanks for the advice. However, I will take care of the problem you ntioned, so don’t worry, Princess.”
Theodora seed a little surprised, perhaps because the words were quite direct.
“…Yes, I understand. I said sothing wrong.”
After saying nothing, she stepped back and touched the stain on the surcoat.
This ti with a sullen face. Subtly, the change in facial expression is dramatic.
A strange current flowed around Heila and Atalante Theodora. The bizarre atmosphere that no one, let alone , could talk about….
Just at that mont when I was thinking about running away. A savior has appeared.
“I made you wait a long ti.”
As if the conversation with General Macneil had ended, Ulkar was approaching with only a few of his closest aides.
“Prince!”
He was so handso with a cheerful smile on his face. It was definitely the first ti in my life that I had been so happy to see a man.
