I Regressed to My Ruined Family

I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 40

#When I returned, my family was ruined (41)

Murlen, who was hovering in the air, eventually hit the ground hard.

Fortunately, I was protected by mana while flying, so there were no major injuries when I landed.

Murren looked at the Archduke.

‘…What happened?’

As he became a 5-star knight, his level rose one level higher, and his strength, speed, and even mana control increased to an incomparable level.

Even if you target not a baron but a nearby self-author, there aren’t many articles that can compete with you.

That was why he confidently rushed towards the Archduke.

But what is the reaction speed shown by the Archduke just now?

As soon as he occupied the back, he spun around and thrust his sword at such a speed that even Murren could not have easily reacted.

The moment you get hit directly by the sword.

If a lot of mana had not been infused into the armor, the black sword would have cut the body in two.

‘…It’s a coincidence.’

It had to be a coincidence.

Otherwise, it would only be said that he had a higher level of skill than a 5-star knight after three months of awakening.

Among all the dukedom’s previous heads, there was no one who started from scratch and achieved the level of five stars in just three months.

Therefore, it was absolutely impossible for the Archduke to be stronger than himself.

okay.

This was a coincidence.

“Knight Commander!”

Soon, he heard the knights urgently calling him.

Now was the time to let people know that he was alive and well.

He spun mana into his body. Blue mana rose steadily above the sword.

Only then did relief fill the eyes of the knights surrounding the Archduke.

The one who has achieved a whopping 5-star level is their knight commander.

‘Of course it is.’

‘The leader must have let his guard down.’

‘There was a trick the Archduke had hidden.’

A coincidence that occurred due to carelessness.

That was definitely the situation just now.

Everyone looked at the knight commander. It was the same for Baron Ziphron.

When I saw his eyes burning with anger, I felt relieved.

Although he had suffered some losses in the previous attack and defense, the knight commander was still fine.

As he would never let his guard down again, it was obvious that the Archduke would soon be subdued.

Murren looked at the Archduke.

I could see him standing still from a distance.

Even the image of him smiling while looking into his eyes.

It was an obvious ridicule.

Wow!

Murren chewed the inside of his mouth. I can’t believe that someone with only one lineage to believe in can be so arrogant!

“Everyone, stay out of this battle!”

Murren shouted loudly.

Collaborating with everyone?

There were no such thoughts in his mind right now.

‘I will never look at you anymore.’

One-on-one.

I will crush him through this match. Now Murren was not letting his guard down at all.

He rotated the mana.

The duke’s pure heart was healing his internal injuries quickly.

“Ha!”

Murlen rushed towards Ethan. It was much faster and more sophisticated than when I approached him earlier.

Ethan slowly raised his sword.

‘I’ll put an end to it!’

In an instant, he occupied a blind spot and swung his sword.

The targeted area was the abdomen.

It is one of the fatal parts where the internal organs inevitably spill out the moment the sword penetrates deeply.

Since he wasn’t even wearing the usual armor, he would fall to the floor from this blow.

Murren did not doubt his judgment at all.

It was right then.

The Archduke’s waist was twisted to the side.

The pace was clearly slow.

The sharp blade was sure to rip open my abdomen.

however.

The only thing the sword passed through was air.

‘How do I do this?’

How on earth did they avoid it?

There was no time to continue thinking.

Because his head was instantly caught in the archduke’s hand.

An enormous grip force pressed down on my skull.

“Ugh…Ugh!”

He urgently shook the hand holding the sword. The sword, with its mana constantly gushing out, cut through the surroundings.

However, the sword did not hit Ethan’s body. The moment he very lightly dodged the sword dance and hit the back of Murlen’s hand.

The feeling disappeared, as if my hands had become numb.

Teeng!

The sword fell on the stone floor and let out a scream.

“The sword technique is a mess, and the breathing technique you learned is really crappy.”

“Kaaaaaa! “Let go!”

“If you’re going to learn by stealing, you should have learned it properly.”

This guy was learning the duke’s mana breathing and sword techniques.

However, they simply learned it and the level of application of the techniques was very poor.

It was the same with swordsmanship alone.

He uses his sword so poorly, as if to show in advance where he is going to attack, that even with his bare hands, like now, he gets caught in the head.

‘Compared to Paulton, it’s really poor.’

Paulton, the escort knight assigned by the Marquis of Bessus. A proper knight can stand out even if he learns ordinary sword techniques and breathing techniques.

Paulton was one of the right knights in Ethan’s opinion.

Even though I don’t know exactly what the techniques of swordsmanship are, I am at the stage of understanding and applying them to some extent.

On the other hand, Murlen, who was now running towards him, felt as if he had just been tutored as an attribute rather than understanding sword techniques.

For Ethan, who has a deeper understanding of the sword than anyone else in the world, he is no different from a toy.

The worst match.

That was the reason why the guy was hanging in the air with his head held on to him.

“Ki…save the knight commander!”

The Baron shouted hurriedly.

If I left it like that, Murren’s head might explode at once. I couldn’t lose a 5-star knight like this in vain.

The knights who were staring blankly at the scene at Zipron’s urgent cry drew their swords.

It was the moment when they were about to rush in.

“late.”

Ethan grinned and tightened his grip. He was a guy I didn’t like from the first time I met him.

Because he kept sending me a warning with his eyes, as if telling me not to do anything foolish because he could cut you down with a single sword.

Isn’t he truly arrogant?

Thirty-two.

Although Ethan had not lived a long life, he knew very well how to deal with people like this. If left alive, he will continue to cause fatigue.

So there was no need to keep him alive.

Kkjjik!

With the sound of something breaking, the body of the knight commander, who had been struggling and resisting, went limp.

‘No way… no way…’

Everyone swallowed their saliva at that scene.

Probably not.

It had to be no.

But when Ethan’s grip widened.

Coo!

The knight, who fell helplessly on the floor, was no longer moving.

“Mi… crazy!”

A 5-star knight dies without even being able to make a proper cut!

This was absolutely ridiculous. But now something unbelievable was happening vividly before my eyes.

‘One guy was dealt with.’

Ethan’s eyes moved very naturally towards Zipron.

“Hee…hee!”

The Baron let out a loud scream. I realized something was wrong. The situation just now was no coincidence.

Because the Archduke’s skills were ‘overwhelmingly’ superior to Murren’s, he was only lightly suppressed despite his actions that seemed like a joke.

It was a nightmare-like situation.

Because the Archduke was not a person who should be this strong.

The reason the Baron didn’t lose his mind was because he still had a lot of troops left.

“Knights…Knights, stop the Archduke! And bring all the soldiers! hurry!”

Two hundred private soldiers and over thirty knights.

Definitely these people.

Obviously…

it will be possible to subdue the Archduke.

While Zipron’s pupils were trembling violently.

The knights, whose pupils had returned to their hazy state as if they had come to their senses, blocked the Archduke’s path.

* * *

One to many.

At first glance, it seems like the majority is much more advantageous, but that’s only when one person’s skills are poor.

Even if five or six clumsy knights rushed at him, it was just so boring to Ethan that he wasn’t even impressed.

Perhaps thanks to the bitter example set by the knight commander, the knights’ morale was already in shambles.

“Dang…don’t panic! Everyone stay on the passing list! “You are doing what you trained!”

One of the four-star knights was leading the knights while shouting at the top of his voice.

But actually.

The one whose pupils were shaking the most was that four-star knight.

As the level is one level higher than other general articles.

This was because I realized much more clearly than the other knights how one-sided the battle between the knight commander and the archduke had just been.

I had no idea that the Archduke was such a monster. It was at a level where I was worried that even if all the knights here were to rush in, let alone subdue them, they wouldn’t be able to avoid being subdued.

The eight knights surrounding him swung their swords as they had learned from the textbook.

As expected from the successful candidates listed in the textbook, there were no gaps in the sword attacks coming from eight directions.

The official knights thought so.

Of course, in Ethan’s opinion.

‘It’s so bad.’

It was a boring pass that didn’t even spark the slightest interest.

The moment I swung my sword.

Cheer up!

Cheer up!

The eight swords were split in two. The great strength of Neprion’s great sword. This was the result of maximizing cutting power using mana.

“…Huh!”

It was a sight that made even the smallest amount of fighting spirit that remained seem to disappear. When I saw the knight screaming, I was so pathetic that I couldn’t help but sigh.

‘There is no need to use the red flame formula.’

What if I had to kill all the knights here?

In Ethan’s opinion, there were only a few people who deserved to die.

Most of them were just ordinary knights following the Baron’s orders.

His new brother disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, he grabbed the four-star knight by the hair and lifted the knight high into the sky.

“Save… live! “Ugh!”

“If you wanted to live, you shouldn’t have looked at me like that.”

A bastard who seems to have forgotten the duke’s favor.

This guy was the same as the knight commander from before.

Kkjjik!

The guy’s head exploded.

All of them, including the knight commander and deputy knight commander, were killed.

All the knights fell silent.

Duke of Ardan.

A family of great heroes who shook the kingdom in the past.

Their reputation was not false.

I only realized that now.

Meanwhile, private soldiers flocked in.

The Baron looked at the soldiers and said with joy.

“Hurry up and attack that guy!”

Lee Baek’s private soldiers wearing all kinds of weapons.

These people would be able to stop the Archduke…

The Baron’s thoughts could not continue any longer. Because the soldiers began to protest strongly.

The soldiers did not move a single step, as if their feet were stuck to the ground.

Duke of Ardan.

This is the family that saved the kingdom.

The Baron could only be called crazy for attacking the descendant of such a great hero.

Even though Baron Ziphron is their commander, it is impossible for him to attack the hero.

“…Attack the Archduke! “I can’t follow you!”

“…I can’t do it either! “How can you repay a favor like this!”

The knight who brought the soldiers was embarrassed.

This was his first time in a situation like this. It was astounding to see soldiers not only refusing orders but even laying down their weapons on the ground.

‘…Holy shit!’

Only then did the Baron realize that it was a mistake.

As a nobleman, he thought of the dukedom as a family that foolishly made sacrifices, but the commoners’ perception was 180 degrees different.

Since childhood, you must have grown up hearing stories about the duke who saved the kingdom.

This is true of the people of the territories outside the duchy, but what about the people of the territories within the duchy?

There was nothing strange about thinking that the dukedom was some kind of guardian deity.

It was as if he had been stabbed in the foot by an ax he had trusted.

The Baron, with his face crumpled, shouted in a panic.

“Yes…yes you guys! Is this really crazy! Anyone who disobeys orders will be put to death…! Hee… Hee!”

The Baron, who was running wild, screamed.

This was because an archduke holding a great sword was approaching him.

“M…stop!”

Despite his desperate cries.

There was no one moving inside.
