"Carlos! Just hide here and don't make a sound! I'll lure those monsters away!"
"Brother Feister, you must be well, we must survive!"
"Believe me, I'm your brother."
Carlos opened his eyes suddenly and looked at the empty cellar. Carlos's eyes felt a little sour.
The voice in the dream was the last time Carlos spoke to his brother. His brother had been away for a day and a night and had not come back yet. Carlos couldn't imagine where his brother was now.
After taking a nap, Carlos' energy did not recover much. The feeling of hunger prompted Carlos to focus on the glass jar. There was only a little food left in the jar, which Pfister finally stole in the chaos.
There is not much left now.
【So hungry...】
Desperate to eat himself, Carlos gritted his teeth, used two fingers to pinch the remaining crumbs of bread, mixed them with the turbid water, and poured it into his mouth.
The bitter rye bread mixed with sawdust was soaked in dirty water and exuded a disgusting smell. Even so, after Carlos felt the false sense of fullness in his abdomen, Carlos felt that he had just eaten
Lost the most delicious food.
Now even the most delicious food is gone. Except for rags and rotten boards, there is nothing in the cellar. Carlos knows that whether he goes out to find food or to find his brother, he must leave here.
To stay in the cellar is to wait for death.
"There seems to be no movement outside. Have the monsters left?"
Carlos climbed up the short ladder and looked at the quiet room through the gap between the wooden boards. I don't know when it started, but the outside world became extremely silent. There were no terrible screams, no roars of monsters, and no limbs being torn apart.
There was the sound of chewing, but now there was no sound outside. It was as quiet and eerie as if everyone, or the whole world, had died.
The unknown fear, which was far beyond what the boy could bear, overwhelmed Carlos' determination. Carlos shrank his head and hesitated.
"Maybe if I wait a little longer my brother will come back. He is a swordsman valued by those soldiers. Maybe now the soldiers have begun to organize a counterattack. If I go out now, I will cause trouble..."
Carefully climbing down the short ladder, Carlos tightened the belt around his abdomen to relieve his hunger.
The boy closed his eyes and tried to get through the difficult days by resting, but the scene of a monster devouring Feist kept appearing in his mind that could not calm down.
"What if Brother Feist has died outside? Do I have to wait here until death?"
Opening his eyes angrily, Carlos patted his cheek, feeling a little ashamed of his cowardice just now.
"I have to go out to see what's going on. Just be careful. The worst I can do is escape back. If I really encounter a monster...ah ha, just die. There's no point in living like this anyway..."
Climbing up the short ladder again, Carlos opened the locked partition above his head and entered the dilapidated house.
Unlike the cellar where the air is not very good, the air outside is filled with a nauseating smell.
Carlos opened the wooden door that was ajar, stuck his head out and glanced at the street. There was no one on the street, only flesh and blood mud that couldn't even be distinguished from body tissue.
"vomit……"
Covering his retching mouth, Carlos retreated into the house, closed the wooden door, and calmed his breathing.
The unknown place he was in was the slave barracks of Brewster Fort. The slave barracks were built not far from the military camp and housed slaves and servants who served the imperial soldiers.
He and his brother were servants of Imperial Sergeant Preston. On weekdays, his brother was responsible for carrying the sergeant's heavy weapons and equipment, assisting Master Preston in wearing armor, and cutting off his master's rear when necessary on the battlefield, while Carlos himself
With his own cleverness, he was responsible for feeding the horses, washing and cooking, taking care of Sergeant Preston's private property, and doing some chores.
Logically speaking, the slave barracks not far from the military camp should be the easiest area to receive rescue, but now the slave barracks are completely silent...
Thinking of the worst possibility, Carlos's face turned pale.
"Does it mean that Master Bing can't defeat those man-eating monsters? Or have we been abandoned?"
Carlos, who was at a loss what to do, froze on the spot, but he didn't know that the crystal alienator who was sensitive to blood had noticed him.
"Hiss... so hungry..."
The moment he discovered Carlos, the alien jumped onto the roof and ran in the direction of Carlos.
…
Time goes back to three minutes ago.
"Sir, can you go faster? My brother is hiding not far ahead. Please, please save my brother!"
"You brat, why are you talking to the military master of the Emerald Territory? You just know how to push me. What the hell! If you run out of energy, why don't you go and deal with those monsters? I think you're a little brat who needs to be dealt with!
I was really blind to let you and another little trash become my servants...
Hey, General, please don't pay attention to this reckless kid. Don't take it to heart. We still focus on ensuring our physical strength, so as not to encounter those underworld monsters that we can't defeat, which will be difficult to deal with..."
Slapping his servant hard on the head, the castle defender, Sergeant Preston, smiled flatteringly at the leader of the black-armored general.
"When these monsters from the underworld are expelled, I wonder if the military master will reward you. I, Pusiton, will treat the military master well."
Not daring to show his anger on his face, knowing that he had offended his savior, the anxious Feist lowered his head.
He was deceived by Pusiton. Pusiton was not as brave and fearless as he had shown before, nor did he have any spirit of an imperial soldier. Pusiton was just a coward and villain who bullied the weak and was afraid of the strong. All strong men behaved differently.
It's just an act!
Sometimes he was flattering and submissive to the black-armored soldiers like a domestic dog, sometimes he was arrogant and scolded and insulted himself. After being rescued by the black-armored soldiers, along the way, Feist had hated the former master in front of him, and he swore to use his life to save him.
Protective Imperial Sergeant.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! But what can he do if he hates it? The military master of the Emerald Territory treats the people of the empire equally, Pusiton can still live freely, and he is still a person without any reputation or ability.
Servants, even if they pay the price with their lives, may find it difficult to obtain the status of an imperial soldier.
Master, the vanguard commander of the Dark Guard, who was sandwiched between the two, heard that Preston wanted to reward himself, and he couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"The Lord asked us to come here to save the people, not to oppress the people of the empire. Your Excellency Pusiton, there is no need to treat us. I have military orders, so I can't obey them..."
The whole team obeys the order! Speed ​​up and move forward! Rescue the survivors along the way!"
Pusiton's face was not very good-looking. Pusiton, who had a hot face but a cold butt, smiled awkwardly, glanced at Feist coldly, and stopped talking.
He didn't care about Chongzi's dissatisfaction. Compared to the old veteran Poseton who couldn't find the least bit of likability in him, Master preferred the young Feist who Poseton looked down upon.
He could see the desire of a warrior in the eyes of young Feist. This desire would make warriors pursue glory and power and spurn cowardly behavior. This kind of gaze is something that every proud Emerald Territory soldier will have.
Along the way from the southern border of the empire, all he saw and heard were the disdainful and despised cowards of the empire, and there were no real warriors at all. Preston was the epitome of the corruption of the imperial soldiers, but he did not expect that he could actually escape from the empire.
An uncut jade was found in the garbage.
Because of this, Master did not care about Feist's slight offence, but instead accelerated his pace. The enchanted heavy armor weighing a hundred kilograms did not look bloated and clumsy when worn on his body. Instead, it made his body taller and straighter.
, the heavy armor and stomach stepped on the stone pavement, sending out a breathtaking pressure.
"We'll do our best, little one."
"Sir, thank you very much!"
Unexpectedly, the military commander of the Emerald Territory would actually choose to speak for himself. Pfister's eyes lit up, and he found his confidence and sense of belonging to the empire again, but this time the sense of belonging did not belong to Archduke Timothy, but only to Emerald.
collar.
[This is the courage that an imperial soldier should have. If the Emerald Territory can rule this land, my brother and I will definitely succeed on the battlefield. Maybe my parents will not have to die...]
Just when Feist felt a little disappointed, a roar came from a hundred meters away.
"General Master, there are demons from the underworld there!"
Knowing where that place was, Pfister's face turned pale, and his pace quickened. A look of fear appeared on Puston's face, and he couldn't help but pause. Only Master, the leader, took a deep breath and pulled out his hands.
Sword, made a charging gesture.
For a moment, Pfister and Preston were unable to breathe under the overwhelming pressure of Master. They followed their instincts and stayed away from Master before they felt better.
"Blood Enchantment."
Whispering a spell in a low voice, the dark red blood attached to Master's body with the blessing of the enchanted armor, forming a translucent scarlet shield.
"break out!"
"Peng!"
The compressed blood energy formed a backward shock wave, and Master, who turned into a streak of blood, began to charge. The heavily armored soldier smashed through all obstacles along the way, whether it was a wooden house or a marble structure house, like an ancient ferocious beast.
, the obstacles on the path of Master's charge collapsed one after another.
"This, what kind of power is this!? God! Is this really a power that humans can master?"
Puston, who was knocked to the ground by the aftermath of the shock wave, stared blankly at Master who had disappeared from sight, his heart trembling constantly.
