The Blood Knight’s Villains

My Villains, Chapter 315

, 56. Change (8)

“Uhahaha!”

The forest trembled the previous night at the sound of Utequai’s loud laughter.

“Damn- shut up you savage!”

It was the young lord, ‘Luyan’, who was nervous. He brushed the dirt off his face for camouflage and took turns aiming his crossbow at Utequai and at me.

“I command you for the third time, reveal your identities!”

“…… Uh”

……

I lowered my head slightly toward the young lord, trying to dissuade Utequai, who kept babbling about what was so interesting.

“I am Phoenix, the knight of Prince Ulkar. It was dark, so I didn’t get to know him, so I made an excuse. Please forgive me, lord.” When I obediently handed over my apology, Ruyan gave a sarcastic look.

“Your waist is quite flexible for a knight of the 3 princes, isn’t it? Also, unlike what he looks like, he seems to believe in others quite easily.”

“What do you mean?”

“The opponent I met in the dark forest at night called him a lord, and seeing him believe it straight away made me look so lax.”

It was cute, funny, and very strange to see a boy who seemed to be about twelve at the most, acting grumpy for no reason.

I put a smile on my face without adding or subtracting those feelings.

“Shouldn’t you believe the words of a man with close to a hundred well-armed men?”

“If we get rid of the bandits, it will be like bowing our heads to the bandit boss, even though we are light knights?”

“It doesn’t matter.”

With a smile, he rested his wrist on the permal of the two swords hanging from the sword belt.

“I’m not sensitive enough to hurt my pride by bowing my head to those who will soon become corpses.”

“…You dare to threaten me?”

“If the lord and his group are thieves, then yes. It is intimidating.”

I gently gripped the handle of the ‘Black Ice’, my two long swords.

“…sigh.”

What they felt at that moment, the soldiers who were camouflaged by covering their bodies with soil held their breath.

Some backed up, some stiffened, others swallowed dry saliva or broke out in a cold sweat.

The boy lord’s auburn eyes were also permeated with a long color. It feels good not to be like a child.

But to my surprise, even though I was determined to kill myself, Ruyan looked a bit nervous, but didn’t seem scared. It was clear from the fact that he was still making eye contact with me, with his legs crossed awkwardly.

The agitation that had spread among the soldiers quickly subsided, perhaps because of the young lord’s confident confrontation with me.

…what the heck is that? I keep wondering yes

At that time, one of the soldiers nearby said ‘Ah’ and took a deep breath and approached the young lord and whispered in his ear.

“If it is Phoenix, the knight of the three princes, isn’t it ‘that Phoenix’?”

“……what?”

“There are people who say that the silver prince’s red knight or the beheader is right.”

It seems that I lowered my voice to lower my voice, but my keen hearing accurately picked up the conversation between the lord and the soldier, even among the cries of wolves coming from the other side of the forest.

“I heard he wore black armor long enough for his fangs to reach his chin.”

“I don’t know about the fangs, but the armor is black, isn’t it?”

“…It’s dark, so I don’t know.”

Since it was a moonless night, the only light was the faint lights from the encirclement around the forest.

The young lord, who was watching me in the dark, immediately glanced at the soldier next to him. The soldier immediately lit a torch and held it toward me.

Ruyan’s amber eyes lingered on my face for a moment before turning to the armor.

“…Looks like blue? No fangs.”

“The color of the armor can change. And among the knights of the 3 princes, are there any other Phoenixes besides him?”

“Then the savage over there.”

“It looks like Hatanka the Red Bear.”

WO ” …….

Around the time the boy lord made a mysterious expression of half wariness and half interest, he felt a group of people from behind.

“…Ruyan?”

The protagonist of the voice was another boy lord.

“Osu?”

“As expected, it was you, Ruyan. I just listened to the voice and wondered.”

A boy who is the nominal owner of ‘Trumwell’ and northern Antrum, and the heir to the Marquis of Eavon. Earl Os, who appeared escorted by knights and the battle mage Raff, was smiling brightly.

Ruyan widened his eyes and stammered.

“How are you here?”

“Be polite, baron.”

A middle-aged man who seemed to be the eldest among the four knights of the Golden Age said. It was a resolute tone close to a command tone.

“And I warn you, as a vassal of the Arya family, I will not condone it if you secretly profess to the Count again.”

“Ah Sir Xavier. You don’t have to do that…

As the middle-aged knight turned around with a hard expression, Count Oss licked his lips and slurred his words.

“I apologize, but could you please order it again,

sir?”

“No, no.”

“It would be ‘no’.”

“Oh sorry-”

“There is no need to be sorry. Aren’t you the one who will become my lord under His Excellency?”

“…be careful.”

As Oss was silent with a downcast face, my own soldiers also appeared with their weapons in their hands. One of them, the horsehair-haired Fritz, spoke quite loudly, as if to be heard.

“Ha, ‘Your Excellency,’ he said, ‘I’m afraid of you. That’s why the kid is upset.”

As the knights’ bloody eyes turned to him, Fritz spat on the floor and glared at them. oh that crazy guy

I quickly asked Os to call their attention.

“Your Excellency Count, do you know the Lord of the Mmm… Young over here?”

“Of course. I saw them often at Li Anwell until four years ago.”

Count Os, who looked at the escorts’ notice, spoke to Ruyan again with a bashful smile.

“It’s been a while, Luyan. how have you been doing?”

“Of course, sir.”

Luyan, the lord of elementary school, showed an unwilling expression to the lord of middle school, Osu.

“I never expected to see you in a place like this. What’s going on here?”

“…It’s related to Yeongji. You don’t have to worry about it, His Excellency.”

As soon as Ruyan finished answering, the middle-aged knight Sir Xavier opened his mouth.

“Your Excellency is asking why you brought troops to this place, which is not the baron’s territory. Please answer clearly and with examples.”

Ruyan, who alternately looked at the cold-eyed Sir Severe and the bewildered Count Oth, twisted his lips and shrugged his shoulders.

“Does that article mean your Excellency?”

“Your Excellency,”

“Leave the sutra.”

When Sir Xavier tried to say something again, Luyan glared at him with fierce eyes.

“The lords are talking to each other.”

“I will also give you a warning. If you break the hierarchy just one more time and block the words of your Excellency, I won’t let you go as a vassal.”

I recognized him at a glance, but he is also a guy with a bad temper.

When Sir Xavier kept his mouth shut, the young lord, who glared at him for a moment, smiled in satisfaction.

“What are you doing all this way, His Excellency? I heard that you are going to the Holy Land with the Marquis, but are you already back?”

“huh. I was on my way back with my grandfather, but I heard that a wolf appeared, so I came to check it out.”

“That’s right. The vassals were incompetent, and they caused concern to His Excellency.”

The young lord looked over at the party and added.

“No matter how you do it, you are coming directly into this dangerous forest. Please retreat to a safe place. I will deal with the pack of wolves with my men.”

“what?”

Ossu dissuaded Ruyan with a surprised face.

“It’s dangerous for you too, fool. The mercenaries and Lord Phoenix here have set up a siege, so you should get out with me.”

“Thank you for your kind suggestion, but I can’t do that, sir.”

“why? …If it’s because of the wolf pelt, just hand over command of the soldiers to Lord Phoynix. Then the Lord will give you his fair share.”

The young count’s gaze was directed this way, so I willingly nodded. But the young baron did not even look at me and flatly refused the offer.

“What we have been waiting for in ambush here for four days is not leather or other by-products.”

“then?”

“Revenge.”

As Ruyan’s eyes burned like fire, Osu glanced at his guards and moistened his lips.

“Those wolves and the monsters chased by them attacked my territory and harmed people

.”

a monster? Not a unicorn?

“Six are dead and seven are gone. I cannot take a single step out of this forest unless that revenge is fulfilled.”

“But…

it was at that moment when Count Osse hesitated to choose his words.

There was no wind, but the bushes began to stir wildly. Before Luyan’s soldiers could react to the strange presence,

“Poi!”

A bunch emerged from a small beech tree between them. Some of the startled soldiers aimed their crossbows at him, but Mungchi didn’t care and screamed.

“Run away, run away! If you don’t chase now, you’ll miss it!”

Leaving only that urgent cry behind, he disappeared to the other side of the bush, and I ran after him, thinking ‘I don’t know’.

“Move!”

“Oh, uh,”

Luyan’s soldiers panicked when me, Utequai, and the friendly soldiers dug in between them, aiming their crossbows at them, but shouting,

“Wait! Don’t shoot, run! We are coming too!”

At the urgent shouting of the boy lord, the soldiers who were standing there threw their bodies after Ruyan, who was running and hurting the bush.

“Uh uh uh.”

The late-night chase began, leaving Count Osse’s bewildered voice behind.

After that, I ran nonstop for about an hour.

Even while relentlessly chasing the target, the bundle left a mark or trail that made it easy for me to follow. I led my party along it, and Ruyan and the soldiers chased after us.

It was not usually difficult to run at full power through the thick forest on a moonless night, so by the time they reached a small pond, many had fallen out.

“Huh ha ha ha-”

Ruyan was breathing hard as he leaned against a tree by the pond. No, he wasn’t just gasping for breath, he was vomiting.

Even when most of my soldiers were falling behind, I stubbornly followed them, and finally came this far. To think that a lightly dressed but short kid would come all the way here. It’s really quite a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of

Among my party, the veteran conjurer and heavy-duty dervish sixson did not see Mittelman. I intentionally left Confier out of concern for those who fell behind, so I will take good care of those left behind and come here.

Kreureung.

The wolves surrounding the pond were all about the size of bulls, but at a rough estimate, there were more than 20 wolves. They bared their yellow teeth at us who relentlessly pursued them.

“Ready for battle *hehe*. *Huh* Get ready for battle you assholes!”

As the 30 or so soldiers caught their breath and aimed their crossbows, the wolves seemed to have instinctively sensed the danger and hid themselves among the shrubbery, only shining yellow eyes.

“Oh there is.”

“what?”

“Enkul’rap. The leader of the wolves.”

Utequai muttered as he glared at the only one who wasn’t hiding in the bushes.

okay. Just looking at that, he’s the boss.

Not to mention the posture of sitting alone on the dry grass by the pond, the staring eyes, the silvery gray fur, or the atmosphere among the other wolves

… The giant wolf cub is quite big.”

Just as Fritz took off his helmet and grumbled while wiping off his sweat, he said that he was bigger than most bears. It would be awkward if that kind of guy wasn’t the boss.

But it wasn’t the direwolf that caught my eye.

“That… what is that?”

“crazy. I’m not dreaming right now.”

Following the murmurs of the soldiers, I carefully examined the middle of the pond.

In the middle of a small pond, perhaps twenty meters in diameter, stood a small rock. On the rock that rose like an isolated island, as Ruyan said earlier, a certain monster was sitting there bleeding.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrranteed

snarling rough breathing. I can feel Hongseong (凶 性) that can not be compared to him at a size half as big as a horse.

A body blacker than chestnut, and a mane and tail with a deep purple hue. Muscular body with two pairs of well-stretched legs and hard hooves.

“That’s not a unicorn…and finally, a pair of sharp horns rising nearly a meter in a spiral-curved shape.

The most beautiful beast I have ever seen was right there.

“It’s ‘Bikakusu’.”

Just as the poacher Cavas muttered, the identity of the monster sitting on an island in the middle of a pond and bleeding fragrant blood

was none other than ‘Bicorn’.
