Chapter 146
EP.146
‘This will do.’
Ruid took a seat in a suitable place.
It sits on the outer wall of Windsor Castle.
The soldiers appeared black through the open field of view.
“There should be a lot.”
Lloyd tried to count how much it would be, but quickly gave up.
It is not a number that can be counted.
But nothing changed.
They will all die here today.
“huh?”
Suddenly, Ruid felt a sense of déjà vu.
‘When did I stop thinking like this?’
Originally, I thought it was wrong to kill someone.
It was natural because they were the same person. Now, my thoughts have changed a bit and I think it’s okay to kill someone who commits a crime, but…
‘What’s wrong with those soldiers?’
I had a rational question.
And at the same time-
‘Why am I okay?’
Even though he had the intention of killing that large army numbering in the hundreds of thousands, he seemed strangely carefree.
Even if I were to kill that many cockroaches, I wouldn’t be this brave. That’s kind of gross.
“…I guess I should just let him sleep.”
Ruid jumped from the castle wall.
If we fight here, the beautiful buildings of the 4th defense line may be destroyed.
We’ve evacuated, but we’re about to use the biggest magic we’ve ever used, so we don’t know what’s going to happen.
“hmm…”
As I walked towards the imperial troops, I slowly began to feel reality.
People with sharp weapons and solemn expressions.
Those eyes were full of murder.
What if?
Just like the last Colon. What would have happened to the 4th line of defense if he had only slept and had not had Irene, who had anticipated this whole situation?
The barrier of the 4th line of defense is only for monsters. You can prepare for any shock, but you cannot prevent it from coming.
The Knights of Windsor are currently deployed in large numbers on the 1st and 9th defense lines due to the wave.
They will enter without blood.
So what will they do?
Will we act gentlemanly and avoid killing civilians like we do in modern times?
No, this is the Middle Ages.
Ruid was not stupid enough to think such naive thoughts.
Because it’s war. They will steal, covet and kill. The history of war in mankind has always been like this.
The people of this world as seen by Ruid. So, what I saw firsthand was the reality of medieval people, which was much more barbaric than modern people think.
‘Among them, there are knights, nobles, and wizards. There may be smart commoners, too. The majority too.’
The majority would be barbaric commoners. Then the result is obvious. Even if the commander is a good person, it is impossible to control this many people.
The people of the North will suffer badly.
Ruid touched his chin. Thinking about what just happened, I felt very uncomfortable.
“I guess I’ll have to kill him too.”
The problem has been resolved.
Ruid smiled brightly and raised his hands to the sky.
The distance from the large army was a discernible distance. The distance you can reach if you shoot a bow and magic.
At that time, the great army stopped its advance.
They seemed to be whispering, and then the driver in front shouted in a loud voice.
“Who are you?”

The distance was quite long, but perhaps because of the use of magic, the voice grew several times louder and was audible without difficulty.
Ruid started chanting in his mind and spoke using loudspeaker magic.
“The North can’t accommodate this many guests.”
The answer came right away.
“We came here to carry out the Emperor’s command! “If you follow the instructions quietly, there will be no unnecessary bleeding!”
“lie. “Then why did you drag so much in?”
“That’s because Victoria Windsor killed the messenger who went to deliver the imperial decree!”
Ruid was filled with disillusionment.
‘Such an obvious lie.’
“My family does not carelessly kill innocent people. “Especially my mom.”
Irene might have been shaken.
‘Is this a fight for justification that is often said to occur during war? My skills are poor.’
But I don’t think that Victoria, and no one else, would have killed the lion for no reason.
That’s because Victoria is kind and sweet.
“You, no way.”
The knight muttered to himself as if he had forgotten that there was a spell.
He probably paid attention to the word ‘mom’ that Ruid said.
Only then did they confirm that the boy in the distance had blonde hair and blue eyes.
There is definitely only one person that applies.
Louis Christopher Windsor, the youngest son of the Duke of Windsor.
“Now wait! “I request conversation!”
The voice of the giant knight was more shaky than expected.
It seemed like they probably didn’t expect such an important character to appear from the beginning.
“Let’s meet in the middle! “Our commander says he has something to say!”
‘what the. Even though it’s hundreds of thousands to 1.’
Ruid thought it was an obvious move.
They probably plan to call him to the center and then capture him alive or kill him.
He was at the level of a queen in terms of checks, but the queen was the only means of keeping the king in check.
I don’t know if there is a grade for prisoners of war, but if there is, it is a special grade.
Of course, I am confident that I will be safe even if I follow what they want.
There was no need to do that.
“It’s enough now.”
Ruid said coldly.
“Casting just finished.”
As soon as those words were finished, blue light enveloped Ruid.
Complex magic circles in a circular shape moved as if they were alive.
The magic circle grew bigger and bigger. Ruid looked like a dot to the soldiers, but now he is the same size as Windsor Castle behind him.
Even to an outsider, it is a natural fact that if left as is, formidable magic will unfold.
“Get your ranks in order! Wizards, stop the coming magic! No, use your bow and magic to block the casting! “You must never chant until the end!”
Because I was so embarrassed, the loudspeaker spell was still in effect.
Ruid sneered. The magic casting has already been completed. In other words, the magic has already been cast.
That’s because it’s a bit big. It just takes time to come.
In other words, no one can stop it.
“Shoot!”
Because there were so many people, it was like thunder.
There were so many things flying that the sky turned black.
There were various types of magic and arrows that seemed to be thousands of times stronger.
But they couldn’t even activate Ruid’s barrier.
Because everything stopped before it reached me.
“That’s ridiculous.”
The knight sat down with a sigh.
Ruid waved his hand in the air.
The direction of the subjects that were facing me changed.
“Ship barrier! Strike the barrier!”
‘Since I already received it, I should give it back twice as much.’
A blue flame bloomed from one of Ruid’s eyes.
The subjects turned and were shot at the soldiers, almost disappearing.
Kwaang bang!
“Kwaaaaak-!”
“help me!”
The subjects exploded like bombs among the empire’s soldiers, who were as numerous as a swarm of bees.
It felt like I was being attacked by a fighter jet.
The terrible screams of soldiers can be heard even without the use of magic.
They look confused and confused in fear.
It’s not a sight that a possessed person who was an ordinary unemployed person could bear, but-
Ruid was more peaceful than ever.
‘That’s strange. this.’
Ruid clutched his chest with blank eyes.
‘Could this be the nature of ‘Lazy Ruid’?’
If you think about it –
I killed people a few times and didn’t think anything of it.
The weight of a person’s life would not be so light if one simply passes it off as ‘because the person deserves to die.’
“…I guess good things are good things.”
Ruid raised his head again.
So far, nothing.
This is simply a response to the opponent’s attack.
‘It’, as he called it, is coming.
Ruid suddenly realized that he had not captured the entire point of this magic.
‘It almost got into big trouble.’
Giving a wizard a magical name is an important act.
If you don’t do that, the next time you use this magic, you’ll have to spend a long time chanting.
Fortunately, I had the name in mind in advance.
Ruid let out a low sigh.
“Armageddon.”
The sky, which had been pitch black until just now, became dazzlingly bright.
Everyone looked at the sky.
I was screaming and confused just a moment ago, but-
Those who saw ‘it’ could not say anything.
A huge stone block that seems to cover the entire sky.
No, can we call that a rock?
A huge thing covered in flames, like red lava, was coming at high speed.
It’s a magic I’ve never experienced before, but it’s obvious what will happen if that huge thing falls.
No one dared open their mouths due to that overwhelming appearance.
Just one person. Except for the caster, Ruid.
“This is it.”
Ruid was shaken.
I knew it was possible, but it felt different when I saw it with my own eyes.
I never thought I could even call an asteroid.
Still, I learned something new from this.
This world you are walking on.
It must be somewhere in space.
‘by the way.’
Ruid looked tired.
It was a ridiculous thing to say, but it was bigger than I thought.
I started to worry not about the 230,000 people here, but about the planet itself.
‘This isn’t going to work.’
I think I was overly nervous.
You didn’t even need an asteroid to kill a few hundred thousand people.
Ruid reflected on himself and stretched out his hand into the air.
The asteroid fell faster than thought.
Because it was so big, it may have been farther away than it actually was, but that seemed enough.
The wind was so strong that it was already difficult to stand on the ground.
It was hot enough to melt the white snow on the ground.
And by the time I realized it-
“…the fifth magic.”
Of the 230,000 soldiers, none were alive.
The only faint reminder of their existence was the black ash that fell on the floor.
“Cancel.”
Ruid clenched his hands.
The asteroid that could have ended this world disappeared in the hands of Ruid.
“Is this the end?”
Ruid sighed.
I decided to use a big spell from the beginning, so I made a good decision to place a barrier over the entire North.
Otherwise, the beautiful northern snowfields would have all melted and created the ocean.
Ruid glanced at the black ashes and looked at his small hands for a moment.
“As expected, it’s nothing.”
I closed my eyes for a moment and walked away without looking back.
I plan to return to the first line of defense.
‘Now that I think about it, what is Damon Hersey doing?’
The same was true for other academy students.
I think I just neglected it too much.
After all, he is the head professor at the Academy.
“Phew.”
Ruid laughed because the thought he had just thought was funny.
“What are you talking about when you just killed everyone? “You look a bit like Irene.”
Anyway, I think I should go see them.
I don’t know what he’ll do yet –
but I’m sure the families of the Academy students are among the people he just killed.
I have to say I’m sorry.
A pile of black ashes that you can’t believe was a living thing.
Something stirred inside it.
It was a lump.
A lump of ashes.
-Sssssssssssssssssssssss.
Pile of ashes gathered around the mass.
It rose upward and wriggled to form a shape.
It was a human shape.
Hands were formed and a face was formed. Hair grew and clothes appeared.
Suddenly, the ashes turned into living people.
Commander of the South. Hero of the Empire.
In the form of Count Oppenheimer, of whom there are bizarre rumors that he may have lived for a thousand years.
Sheffield muttered, looking at the place where Ruid had just disappeared.
“…Out of standard. Louis Christopher Windsor.”
A rather provocative phrase when researching the current generation Windsor.
I thought it was an excessive adjective to the empire, saying it was outside the standard, as it was weakening, but
I took this opportunity to confirm that it was not excessive at all.
“He was a more dangerous person than you could imagine. “I never thought he would have a power comparable to that of Delrin. I have to tell this to the Emperor.”
The Earl of Sheffield’s eyes sank deeply.
He also turned his back and walked somewhere.
The place where his steps end up is the imperial palace.
To be exact, only one person.
Emperor.
He turned to the only human he recognized.
