The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - chapter 176

Ch 176

For a definite conclusion (2)

Drooling.

The Cairo Kingdom Army was busy moving.

The main skeleton for the launcher was moved on wheels, and the detailed parts were put on a cart and assembled one by one.

The troops on the wall watched the scene.

They did not know what the Kingdom Army was going to do, but they were not in an atmosphere of great concern.

“Are you going to use the flare as well?”

Benedict’s gatekeeper.

It was Captain Cameron.

The use of flares in sieges is essential.

A powerful siege weapon that makes Mercury lose its advantage.

If it was a battle between ordinary nobles, whether or not to use it depended on their wealth, but there was no way that flare could not be expected in a civil war at the national level.

At a glance, the Kingdom Army showed a movement to install as many as five launchers.

After about two hours of installation, the firepower ejected from the low-firing device will collapse the wall.

However.

Benedict was different.

‘Successful at Benedict’s Castle is one of the options that we have prepared. I commissioned the sky to form a very strong magic defense on the walls of Benedict. Dozens of flares have enough defense to withstand, and even if the durability wears out, it’s up to the ability to recover if you only replenish mana stones. With the firepower that Cairo possesses, Benedict can never be captured.’

usurpation of kingship.

This is the ultimate goal of the aristocracy.

Not only did he not overdo it with the narrow power system, but he steadily prepared for a rebellion over the years.

Magic defense is just the beginning.

Military training of the soldiers was also carried out steadily, and various options such as Plans A and B in the event of a rebellion were calculated in advance.

Of course, it was also an option for the royal faction to attack first.

I didn’t think of an alliance with Dmitry, but I didn’t think that the plan would change that much.

An unbreakable wall.

And the state of securing an excessive amount of war supplies.

Cameron believed in Benedict.

Thinking that there might be some soldiers trembling with anxiety, he raised his voice.

“You all know that the commander of the Royal Army is Roman Dmitry. He was a demon of the Southern Front, and is Cairo’s number one swordsman who defeated Count Nicholas. But this is a national battle. Even if Roman Dmitry was strong, it would have no meaning if he couldn’t get past Benedict’s walls, where the magic defenses set up in the sky were formed. After all, it means that in front of a high wall, you are only a human being.”

anxiety factor.

Roman Dmitry’s existence.

Exhorting people who showed signs of nervousness, Cameron gave him a firm belief.

Trust me. The enemies will not be able to cross the walls, and the final victor will be our nobles.”

because there is a basis for the belief.

Cameron’s rants colored the walls with a positive atmosphere.

* * *

The point at which people began to agitate was when the Robes appeared.

” What are those guys?”

“It looks like he’s doing something trick-or-treating.”

above the wall.

The aristocratic army looked anxious.

There was an ominous feeling in the unexpected movement, but it did not show any particularly restraining movement.

The safest area is behind the walls. There was no need to overdo it, as long as it was protected by the castle wall that formed the magic defense.

Time has passed.

The Robes, who had been preparing for a while, approached a person to see if the work was finished.

“Part 1, the preparations are complete.”

“Part 2, the preparations are complete.”

their body.

It was the magicians of Phoenix.

Felix, who hid his face with a robe, recalled what he had heard from Roman a month ago.

“Once the public ranked match begins, Dmitry cannot avoid getting caught up in the vortex of war. Then, I will deliberately push the enemies and induce a siege. Felix. It is your phoenix’s job to bring them down.

a month ago.

While the people were still enjoying peace, Phoenix began preparing for war.

Roman’s command.

risked his life

Thanks to Roman Dmitry, Phoenix restored the magic of the tower, and with full support, he quickly found stability. It was truly a lifelong benefactor.

As Phoenix, he was ready to do anything for Roman Dmitry, and when the siege was ordered, Felix and the wizards smiled with joy.

The wizard is the flower of the siege.

Since they were given the role they could do best, their goal was to pay for their meals from now on.

Felix said.

“The master has given us a lot. Even a silent beast recognizes and reciprocates its master, but we have not done anything for the master. And the time has come. The master has given us a task that we can do best, and if we can’t do it right, there is no point in our existence.

The voice fell heavily.

because of themselves.

Many people will die.

However, since he entered the battlefield, he had no intention of arguing with humanity and leaving him behind.

“Show it to your enemies. How Phoenix was able to occupy the position of the 13th horse tower on the continent.”

Okay.

“I take orders.”

The wizards moved.

Three for each launcher.

They immediately started to generate mana, and the pattern engraved on the launcher worked in conjunction with him to shine.

woah ah ah.

‘Generally known flares have limitations in their firepower. If you have properly prepared the magic defense system, it is not easy to destroy the wall even with a flare. But what if wizards amplify the power of the flare? Firepower that exceeds the expected range can break the magic defense system based on flare.’

Resonant mana.

Wizards gave the flare power.

In particular, the mana of the phoenix wizards based on the fire attribute was perfectly harmonized with the flare.

yet.

Whoops!

Puff Puff Puff!

The flare was fired.

The crater fired simultaneously exploded on the wall as it was.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Quiet rumble.

It was tremendous power.

The soldiers screamed at the shock that shook the walls, and they looked at the guards commander with bewildered faces.

He said it’s a defense system that can never be broken even with a flare.

However, the enormous shock that seemed to destroy the fortress wall at once made it possible for even a moron who did not know magic to know that the situation was dire.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

The attack continued.

Depending on the mana generated by the wizards, the blazing flames exploded far beyond normal.

The flower of the siege.

It was the power of a wizard.

And among the 13 horse towers, Phoenix was the most specialized in firepower.

Curl rumble.

“Captain of the Guard! The durability of the first magic defense is rapidly declining.”

“If this is the case, I will not be able to last long! Please tell me the solution!”

Reports from all directions.

Cameron’s face turned pale.

I never imagined that the Kingdom Army would mobilize a large number of wizards.

‘The wizards belonging to the tower are neutral. In wars between nations, they lend power for the nation that supported the tower, but in civil wars that take place within the country, wizards do not step forward. But what are they? I don’t know if it’s one or two, but as many as a dozen wizards joined the Kingdom Army. Even if the king personally secured the wizards, it doesn’t make sense for a number of people like that.’

I was astonished.

Dozens of wizards.

beyond the realm of common sense.

Even the horse towers known on the continent, historically, had never sent such a number of people to fight in a foreign country.

First.

I had to solve the problem.

As the attack continued, Cameron screamed as he put a blood on his neck.

“Activate the emergency defense system! Even if there is a limit to pouring mana stones into the magic defense, somehow protect the durability from falling! If the walls fall, there is no turning back from then on! We must use the ballista right now to break the launcher!”

The light went out on the foot.

A command contrary to long-term warfare.

War supplies would run out quickly, but Cameron couldn’t think of any other options.

* * *

Cameron wasn’t the only one who was surprised by the series of circumstances.

Looking at the fire-breathing launcher, Simon gave a bewildered expression on his face.

” What is this?”

wizards.

It was a power that even the Cairo royal family did not possess.

However, under Roman Dmitry’s orders, they were actively attacking the nobles.

it didn’t make sense

How did you convince the wizards?

The answer could be heard from Chris.

“Not long ago, the Phoenix Horse Tower took up residence in the Dmitry estate. In general, the ‘neutral’ horse tower does not intervene in civil war, but Phoenix belongs to a noble family. If Dmitry decided to become Cairo’s sword, wouldn’t the Phoenix Horse Tower also have to help?

in the blunt explanation.

Simon was shocked.

According to Chris’ words, it meant that a group of sorcerers enough to be called Magic Tower belonged to Dmitry.

’13 horse towers. It lost its secret skills and was evaluated as the lowest due to the smallest number of heads, but it was still called the continent’s best in terms of firepower. Wherever you go on the continent, a group that will be welcomed swears allegiance to Dmitry.’

I got goosebumps.

if.

If Daniel Cairo had rejected Dmitry’s offer, Roman Dmitry would have overthrew the aristocracy with his own strength.

If there is a magician, it is quite possible.

And when their swords pointed towards the royal family of Cairo, it was clear that the high walls alone would not be able to block Dmitry’s attack.

king’s choice.

It was a supreme-rulersend.

If he hadn’t embraced Dmitry, he would have faced the monstrous Roman Dmitry and wizards as enemies.

‘Heaven has not abandoned Cairo. We made the right decision.’

breathed a sigh of relief.

The more we check Dmitry’s true face.

Simon was convinced that this war would end in a victory for the royal faction.

* * *

The sun went down.

After finishing the first workshop, Cameron reported the result with a sad face.

” In order to prevent the attack of the kingdom army, I had no choice but to use 30% of the mana stones prepared in advance. I’m really sorry. But take into account the fact that the enemies used wizards. If I hadn’t reacted quickly, the walls of Benedict would not have lasted long and would have collapsed.

this meeting.

None of the members of the aristocracy blamed Cameron.

Haven’t they seen them too?

Whenever the flames raging on the wall caused a huge explosion, the nobles watching the situation from afar rolled their feet.

So completely overwhelmed.

Since he could not have imagined that the Kingdom Army would have secured dozens of wizards, anxiety that it could collapse without being able to hold out for a day was widespread.

Fortunately, the attack was prevented.

But, like Cameron’s grim expression, no one could positively accept the fact that he had survived the day.

said Marquis Benedict.

“So how long can you last?”

” The opponent has dozens of wizards. If you repeat the same attack as today with proper rest, you cannot survive more than 10 days even if you replenish mana stones elsewhere.”

“Ten days. That’s the only thing you can’t stand it.

It was hopeless.

Roman Dmitry.

His strategy was blatant.

As soon as he arrived at Benedict, he attempted to attack, and as soon as the wizards’ mana ran out, they immediately retreated.

And then I got enough rest.

The troops of the aristocratic faction could not stay vigilant even for a moment in the face of an unpredictable attack, but the kingdom army did not seem to intend to forcefully attack.

ten days like this.

It was completely the face of the royal family.

While being attacked by magic, the nobles would be tired, and there was no way to stop the troops coming as soon as the gates collapsed.

The conciliation of the imperial faction that was originally planned is also in vain.

The process of conciliating them and gathering the troops takes time, but the movement of the King was too fast and powerful.

finally.

There was only one thing the nobles could trust.

“Viscount Owen. What happened to Baron Winston?”

“Now, we have gathered the troops of the aristocratic faction and have arrived near the entrance to the northeast area. There is still the possibility of a reversal. If Baron Winston captures the empty Dmitry, even Roman Dmitry will not be able to force the attack as he does now. Then, you can buy time to attract the Imperial faction.”

“What is the probability of failing to attack Dmitry?”

“It will undoubtedly be successful. Isn’t Baron Winston the proud commander of the aristocracy? With his ability, he can destroy the entire northeast area. The only variable is the possibility that Dmitry might have a wizard, and dozens of wizards have already appeared in the process of attacking Benedict Castle. It’s virtually impossible to have more than that, and if a variable does occur, it’s unlikely that the difference in power will change the outcome.”

Think about it.

Opponents are scoundrels from the frontier

With Roman Dmitry absent, they had no way of stopping the attack.

nobility.

Not all of them gathered at Benedict.

The troops were split in two, and some followed Baron Winston to Dmitry.

Seongdong Gyeokseo (聲東擊西).

Benedict wasn’t stupid.

After deliberately locking the castle and distracting his eyes, he opted for a clever strategy of wiping out the enemy’s base.

The Marquis Benedict looked sharp.

“Give it to Baron Winston. This war cannot be defeated. I will entrust you with full authority over everything that happens in the process of overthrowing Dmitry, so just order me to bring you the result of victory. Cairo’s royal family is nothing more than a sand castle. If only Dmitry, who set fire to them, was dealt with, the Kingdom Army would inevitably shake.

The nobility was convinced.

within the next 3 days.

If a victory message arrives from the northeast, then it will be the beginning of a real rebellion.
