"So many."

　The gates opened and out of the city came the Perian army.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They moved with a majestic appearance, as if they were the real attackers, but I couldn't help muttering to myself as I saw their numbers approaching, determined not to miss their opportunity.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At a glance, there must be about 5,000 of them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This number is obviously too many.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Probably, they must have gathered the maximum number they could gather from the current Peria.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Orient is limited to that number in terms of the number of soldiers it can mobilize, so Peria, which has lost the city of Purge, must be similar to them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is impossible for them to be here conveniently.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is definitely a premeditated plan.

It's him!　Target that one on the red horse!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Such were the voices coming from the Peruvian army.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Looks like they're after me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, of course.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm here as the leader of the Valka Mercenaries, but from their point of view I'm the Minister of Defense and Protector of the Orient.

　I have the military power of a neighboring country right in front of me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If we defeat him, it will be a great victory.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Besides, I am considered more of a defender.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I used a lot of wall defense tactics to protect the Orient, and I accumulated a lot of tactical victories.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, I have relatively fewer chances to be on the front lines, and it is difficult for me to directly target them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Furthermore, the main borders of the Orient are already well defended by walls, and they do not go out for expeditions very often.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, the only way to target me was to break through the fortified borders and attack either the capital of the Orient or the new Barka Street.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I guess this operation was prepared to draw me out.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They allowed a neighboring country with which they have had hostile relations with to build a Barka church, albeit with mercenaries.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I can't ignore the fact that the church of Barca is being targeted.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I can attack any church in my country whenever I want, and if they don't come to my aid, so be it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is a church with a useful power, and they must have thought that they could get some silver.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And if they came to help, he would attack them from behind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I may or may not have been among them, but I would have known it right away.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm the only one in the Barka mercenaries who can use that meteor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seeing that flamboyant bow attack, they were convinced that I had come directly to this place.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For the Peria nation, the operation was a great success.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To save the church of Barca from being attacked, my second-in-command, Elvis, rushed in with a group of mercenaries.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I fired a "meteor" to cover them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As a result, the Peria army that was attacking the church suffered considerable damage, but that is not a problem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Because there are not well-trained soldiers there, but an agitated populace.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It does not hurt to lose some of them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　More than that, I even lost my strength when I used a meteor to cover them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If we attack them with an army of 5,000, we can definitely capture them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come on, Black Death Butterfly!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even though Elvis took his mercenaries and charged in, there was no way there was anyone left around me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But even with the mercenaries I've trained up to this point, I doubt I'll be able to compete with an opponent who has more than ten times the number of men to attack me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Perian army is already closing in on us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There is little those present can do on their own.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So we have decided to buy ourselves some time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　My body is exhausted, but I still have enough magic power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I will use that magic power to the utmost and activate the Black Death Butterfly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is a magic used by Guido Purge, a male of Purge Street, who once served the country of Peria.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He sent jet-black butterflies out of his palm one after another and made them fly around me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Normally, the power of the Black Death Butterfly is to attach itself to the body of an opponent and force him to bleed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I used it around me for another purpose.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I used the Black Death Butterfly only as a distraction.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Black Death Butterflies were created around me and the Valkyrie I was riding, in such large numbers that they made the visibility of the space so poor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　From Peria, it might look like a big black ball or a cocoon was created.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Next, Norn, it's your turn!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Within the Black Death Butterfly, a new one emerges.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was a norn.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was not a magic sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was a reddish-black magic stone that I had given my blood to Sebas, who had returned from Count Vandenburg's domain in Brillia, and using it, he had sent out a fresh blood army.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And these fresh-blooded soldiers are not just red armor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Scattering!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The fresh-blooded Norns, created from a number of magical stones, looked like humanoid figures in red armor and red Valkyries.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There were five of them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The red-haired Valkyrie I ride wears red-colored Barca steel armor, and I myself have created blood armor on my own body.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, there are six red horsemen, including myself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The six red riders have each sprung out from their jet-black cocoons, the Black Death Butterflies, in a different direction.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I sensed that the Perian army that was advancing on me was startled by this sight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Valka Mercenaries used white Valkyries as their cavalry, and they had white armor on their Valkyries.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Unlike those other cavalrymen, I was the only one riding a red Valkyrie.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That is why I was running to charge at the red Valkyries with the red Valkyries as my landmark, when suddenly a black butterfly enveloped the area around the Valkyrie, and then it grew into six and ran in different directions.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But the Barka mercenaries were different.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They heard my word to spread out and followed it to the letter.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's just the way Elvis had trained them so thoroughly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The mercenaries are organized into squads and platoons, each with its own commander, but without saying a word they split into six and followed the red cavalrymen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Now you won't be able to tell from the outside where I'm aiming.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, with an army of 5,000 men attacking me from the rear, I had to divide the mercenaries in my own defense into six more units to counterattack.
