Chapter 205
Chapter 205: Laputa, being attacked (pt . 2)
“About that…” Kang Chul-In spoke, somewhat embarrassed .
“Sorry, I apologize . ”
“ . . . ?”
“That wasn’t on my orders . It’s just that there’s a perverted subordinate of mine who likes to tie up people like that . ”
“ . . . Can I trust that?”
“Of course . ”
And while Kang Chul-In and Tagore were having a ‘serious’ conversation, the officials,
Pft…
It’s because milord is used to it now too, pft…
Haha… Podolski…
All laughed inwardly .
“Anyway . ” Kang Chul-In changed the topic of the conversation .
“I’ll give you a choice . ”
“What choice?”
“First, get executed . ”
“ . . . !”
“Second, bee a prisoner of war, and I’ll get ransom from your Lord . Or… bee my subordinate . Oh, and if you bee my subordinate, you will keep your position as the leader of a division . I will also pay you an increased 10% from your previous salary . ”
“R-Really?”
“Of course . Why would someone like me lie about this?”
“Well… Okay . But let me ask one thing . ”
Tagore asked .
“What is it?”
“Are you really planning on winning this war?”
“Obviously . ”
“Ha! Do you even know what your enemies are…”
“Enough . I won’t hear any more . ”
“ . . . !”
“The only thing that matters is whether or not you bee my subordinate . ” Kang Chul-In spoke, stroking the sheath of Kaiforce .
It was a warning, meaning that he would kill her if she asked any more questions .
“Hmm…”
After pondering for a while,
“I’ll bee a prisoner of war, then . ”
Tagore decided to remain loyal to her Lord, Atal Ramanuzan .
“Fine . ”
Kang Chul-In nodded .
“Take the captives, and make them work as slaves until Atal Ramanuzan es to discuss the ransom fee . ”
As soon as Kang Chul-In gave those orders, soldiers of Laputa came over, before dragging Tagore and her soldiers away .
“W-Wait!” Tagore shouted .
“I’m a military officer of a territory! Shouldn’t you treat me a little bit…”
“So?”
“You should treat me as a VIP…”
“Is that all?”
“ . . . !”
“If you’re a prisoner of war, then just do what I tell you to do until you get back to your territory . ”
Saying that, Kang Chul-In motioned for the soldiers to take the prisoners away .
“James . ”
When they were taken away, Kang Chul-In opened his mouth once more .
“Yes, Milord . ”
“Take 1000 soldiers and go to the place where the battle occurred and then burn all of the corpses . ”
“ . . . Sorry?” At this unexpected order, James froze .
Burn the corpses?
What did that mean?
“Who is the leader of the enemy?”
“Ah…!”
“Don’t you think we should get rid of a possible source of danger?”
“As expected of Milord!” James gasped .
Kang Chul-In’s foresight was truly great .
Overlord Aleister himself was an undead monster, as well as a necromancer . It definitely wasn’t smart to give Aleister a bunch of corpses for free .
“And now, we will wait here until supplies arrive . ” After James left, Kang Chul-In spoke .
“We won’t move until supplies, as well as the reinforcements from Overlord Lee Chae-rin, e . Understood?”
“Yes, Milord!”
“However, we will immediately go into battle when the supplies and the reinforcements e . Two days at the very least, and four days at most . So make sure to feed the soldiers well and let them rest . ”
“Yes!”
The officials of Laputa responded energetically .
-----------
The airship of the Cyamodus territory that Alex Rothschild was on passed through the Deathwin territory and headed south .
“Milord, we’re almost there . ” The captain of the ship reported to Alex Rothschild .
“How long?”
“We’ll be on top of the Laputa territory within an hour, sir . ”
“Alright . ”
Alex Rothschild nodded his head .
“Tell the officials that we’ll be having a quick meeting, and the soldiers to prepare their parachutes since we’ll be leaving soon . ”
“Yes, Milord . ”
“Oh, and…”
Rothschild added .
“In the case that we retreat, we will leave without the soldiers . ”
“ . . . !”
“Retreating to the Airship is only for saving important personnel like me and the other officials, so don’t waste time trying to save many soldiers . Understood?”
“ . . . Yes, Milord . ”
Even though the captain trembled inwardly at Alex Rothschild’s ruthlessness, he didn’t dare to ment on it .
That would mean the end of him .
After the tragedy that had befallen Lee Gong-Myung, Alex Rothschild had bee a violent and absolutely merciless person .
His charming and princely atmosphere had disappeared, and what replaced that was the urge and desire for revenge on Kang Chul-In .
--------
Two days passed .
“Milord, apparently the reinforcements and supplies will arrive within three hours . ”
“Three hours…”
Kang Chul-In pondered for a while .
“Then we will set out in six hours . Our aim is to conquer and take control over the 18 peaks . ”
“Should I tell that to the army?”
“Yeah, do that . ”
“Yes, Milord . ” The messenger immediately left Kang Chul-In’s tent to spread that through the speaker .
Exactly six hours later .
Kang Chul-In led 4,000 soldiers, twelve magical cannons, the monster division, and four Flame Atlases towards the 18 peaks .
“We don’t have time right now . So, we will quickly go to the 18 peaks and conquer it . ”
They needed to hurry .
Now that they didn’t know when more reinforcements would arrive for the enemies, there was no reason to wait .
“Let’s go!” Kang Chul-In led his generals, and started to march towards the 18 peaks .
“Milord!”
But at that moment, a messenger shouted towards Kang Chul-In before running in front of him and kneeling .
“Milord, Milord! Please stop the march for a moment!”
“What is it?” Kang Chul-In asked, his face stiff .
“T-Trouble, sir!”
“What trouble?”
“W-Well… Milord, please don’t be angry…”
“Just speak . ”
“Apparently, special forces led by Alex Rothschild have arrived in the Laputa territory, and they are wreaking havoc!”
At this report, Kang Chul-In’s face started to darken .
But,
“We keep going . ”
“M-Milord!” Shocked, Kwak-Jung tried to stop Kang Chul-In .
“We should at least send Secretary Lucia… We can spare a warp gate…”
“No . ”
Kang Chul-In shook his head with a determined expression .
“Today, we conquer at least 3 of the peaks . There is no retreat . ”
“But…” Kwak-Jung tried to stop Kang Chul-In . The same went for the other subordinates of Kang Chul-In .
“Have you forgotten!?” But to this, Kang Chul-In shouted .
“Don’t be afraid! Butler Alfred is an existence to be feared, a true vampire! And not only that, my daughter Arshelly is also in the territory! Those bastards have e walking to their deaths!”
Even though Alfred was quite old now, he was still a true vampire .
And not only that, but Arshelly was a kid that had inparable potential in magic, swordsmanship, and psychokinesis .
“T-That’s right!” Realizing that Arshelly and Alfred were back there, Kwak-Jung smacked himself on the forehead .
“Ah…”
“The princess was there!”
“Huhu… poor Rothschild…”
And as a result, the officials of Laputa began to laugh and feel bad for Rothschild .
After all, everything that Rothschild tried to do to Kang Chul-In hadn’t worked before .
During the crisis on Earth, Kang Chul-In had gotten the Bone Dragon, gained levels, gained the popularity of the citizens of Korea, as well as Kaiforce . Now, Rotschild was trying to invade Laputa while Arshelly and Alfred were guarding the place… it seemed like there were many ways to suicide .
Daughter, I believe in you .
Kang Chul-In thought of Arshelly .
Even though he normally didn’t want Arshelly to participate in battle, this was an exception .
“Let’s go!” Kang Chul-In continued to walk towards the 18 peaks .
---------
At the same time .
“Enemies! Enemies have e!”
“Block them!”
“Get ready for battle!”
Within the castle of Laputa, havoc was being wrecked .
BANG!
Explosions occurred everywhere .
“Aghh!”
“S-Save me…”
The screaming of the Laputa soldiers didn’t stop .
“Kyaaaa!”
“Ahhh!”
It wasn’t much different for the maidservants .
Rothschild’s forces began to slaughter anyone in their path .
“More, more!” His sword covered in dripping blood, Rothschild shouted .
“Kill them all!”
Alex Rothschild was relieving some of his anger on Kang Chul-In by killing his civilians .
BANG!
More explosions sounded due to the ‘mana bombs’ thrown by Alex Rothschild’s soldiers .
“Kang Chul-In… I’ll turn your palace into nothingness today!!” Rothschild shouted once more, a crazed smile plastered on his face .
“Hu… look at you . Where do you think you are, you bastard? Huhu…”
At that moment .
“I didn’t think that I’d see you within Milord’s territory… to think that I’d live to see this sight…”
An old man wearing a tuxedo blocked the path of Alex Rothschild .
“What do you think you’re going to do to me, old butler?” Alex Rothschild laughed at Alfred .
“Old butler? Huhu… Look at you… Huhuhu… Haha… Pft… KAKAKA…”
Alfred started with his signature warm laugh, before it started to suddenly escalate .
“Trash like you dares to insult a ‘true bloodline’ like me? Kuku…”
The voice was no longer that of an old man’s .
It was the voice of a young Alfred, who had once fought to bee the lord of all vampires!
