The carriage stopped on an empty gravel road. At this time, Clemont and his party had walked out of the plains and arrived at the hilly area, where tall and thick trees were scattered everywhere.
"Okay, come right away!"
Upon hearing this, Clemont on the carriage gently grabbed Mandy, who was sleeping on top of him.
"Ah, Clement, are we there?"
Although Clemont's movements were gentle, he still woke him up.
"It's not here yet, we should go have dinner!"
Looking at Clemont coming off the carriage, Avella immediately brought the cooked food over, while Shirley and Muriel took off the simple dining table from the carriage and placed it next to the carriage.
Because of these three sisters, Clemont did not mix with the knights of the Eagle Knights. After all, they were all young men with strong blood, so they could withstand this kind of torture.
"Well, you guys should sit down and eat too! There's so much that I can't finish by myself!"
The food was purchased by Dylan outside the city of Ilya, and as the creator of this meal, Dylan was receiving thanks from the Knights!
Clemont is very willing to see this, after all, it is also a kind of training for him.
Hearing their master's words, the three Avila sisters looked at each other, but did not follow the instructions.
They are very clear about their current status. As the master's servants, they are not qualified to sit and dine with the master.
Seeing this, Clemont just shook his head. Although he did not agree with this strict hierarchical system, he did not want to object because he was a beneficiary of this system.
"Yeah! Clement, I want to eat this!"
However, Mandy, the forest fairy, did not have such a psychological burden. The alluring aroma of the food made her little wings flap so hard that she could hardly see clearly.
"Haha, okay~"
After cutting the grilled steak into small pieces, Clement placed a small piece on a clean plate.
Mandy, who was waiting on the side, immediately pounced on him, holding a steak about the same size as her and started gnawing on it.
"Mandy, how did you get caught?"
"Ah! Mandy forgot! Mandy only remembers sleeping on the moon lily leaves in Moon Fountain, and when she woke up, she was in a hard cage!"
Looking at Mandy who was answering her question with her little head tilted, Clemont put another small piece of white bread on her plate.
In this way, one person and one goblin were chatting and devouring the food in front of them.
Just when Claremont finished dinner, Dylan, who had been thanked profusely, ran back with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
"Clermont, Uncle Kyle said that there is a tail behind us. He has already taken people to deal with it. Should we go over and take a look?"
"Huh?" There are still some blind people looking for trouble!
"Come on, let's go take a look!"
With that said, Clemont took out his knight's sword from the carriage and ran towards the location of the knights with Dylan.
Looking at Clemont walking away, the three Elvira sisters looked at each other with strange expressions.
"Sister Avella, this is a good opportunity, let's escape!"
The youngest Shirley looked at the eldest sister Avila with some excitement.
Avila was also a little moved by this proposal, but after thinking for a moment, she still shook her head.
"Although he did not sign a slave contract with us, he cannot escape. We are now in the middle of the Ota Empire, surrounded by the territories of human nobles. Once discovered by them, you should understand what will happen."
Avila glanced at the faces of the two sisters solemnly, and continued:
"And I think this human noble is different from other human nobles. Even the forest elves are willing to stay by his side, so he shouldn't be a bad person. As long as we follow him, we will have a chance to return to our hometown one day.
of."
On the other side, Clement, who had caught up with Kyle, looked at the silent cavalrymen on the hillside in the distance, frowned and asked: "Uncle Kyle, what are the origins of these cavalrymen?"
"I don't know, but the one-eyed knight leading the team should also be a spirit knight! Although their clothes are messy, judging from the details, they should be a regular knight group!"
Kyle had a dull look on his face at this time. It was obvious that the five hundred knights did not put a lot of pressure on him.
"Then what should we do? Should we just kill him?"
Clemont couldn't think of any good solution for a while. It was obvious that these people were here for him.
Kyle was able to discover them because the spies they sent exposed their traces.
"That's all we can do! There's no easy terrain to set up an ambush here! They'll probably notice the spies' problem soon, and it's too late for us to leave now!"
"However, most of these cavalry are junior knights. As long as the leader is eliminated, there should be no cost to destroying them!"
Kyle touched his chin and said.
"Okay, let's do it! Uncle Kyle, I'll leave that one-eyed knight to you! But if you can capture him alive, it's best to capture him alive. I still need to know something from his mouth!"
On the other side, Quelle Aqil, who was waiting for the spy's report, kept scanning the surroundings with his only remaining eye. At the same time, a strange feeling of being spied on enveloped him.
"Captain, something happened to Tut and the others! What should we do now?"
Next to him, the deputy captain of the Grand Knight rank frowned and looked at Queller.
"Haha, now that it has been discovered, there is no need to hide and choke. Brothers, as long as you can get the forest goblin back, the three feather tribesmen around the baron are at your disposal!"
Quelle Achier was staring at the hillside where Clemont and others were at this time, and said with a sinister smile on his face.
Upon hearing the regimental leader's promise, the cavalrymen behind him suddenly became excited, and they were all gearing up and impatient.
"Well, that's quite a bit of strength!"
Looking at the one-eyed knight who found him and others, Kyle smiled and nodded.
"Eagle Knights, charge!" Kyle gave the order.
The eagle knights who had been waiting for a long time were shot out instantly like bullets.
The lances flashed and the hoofbeats sounded like thunder. Although there were only a hundred people, the momentum they exuded at this moment made Clement look at him sideways.
"Hmph! So what about the Eagle Knights! With just a hundred people, I, the Shaqua Knights, can be destroyed with just one hand!"
"Shaque Knights, attack!"
Looking at the Eagle Knights galloping down the hillside, Queller snorted disdainfully.
For him, the fully-staffed Eagle Knights may temporarily avoid the edge, but now this mere hundred people are not enough to fill his teeth. You must know that they are the strongest slave-catching army under Viscount Adolf.
"charge!"
Following Queller's order, knights wearing various knight armors and holding various sharp blades charged forward.
"Ha...don't overestimate your capabilities!"
Kyle, who was charging at the front, had a sneer on his lips. He waved his sword lightly with his right hand, and suddenly a giant crimson flame air blade swept away.
"Ah~"
Seeing this flaming air blade, the charging Shakui cavalry suddenly screamed in horror.
The temperature of the flame is enough to melt steel and even burn living things to ashes!
At this time, these brave but stupid guys actually wanted to charge, and they were undoubtedly looking for death!
"boom!"
There was a violent explosion.
Quelle Aqil blocked the blow, but he was not feeling well at this time.
His face was horribly pale, and small beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
After taking this move, he knew very well that he was no match for this person.
But it doesn't matter, as long as he is held back, the five hundred Shaquille knights under his command are enough to calm the battle.
Kuile's eyes flashed with viciousness, and he clenched the scimitar in his right hand. The violent sand wolf sitting below him also looked up to the sky and howled, with sharp whirlwinds circling around it.
In response, the flame dragon horse just snorted lightly, and then the crimson flames slowly enveloped the whole body, including the master Kyle on his back.
