Chapter 26



Episode 26

“Please wipe out all the republican bastards who are calling nonsense like revolution!”

“Aha, good. Then, from the looks of it, this is the Royalist (RoyaKst) faction.”

One of the men in the castle raised his voice, and Yoosung nodded calmly.

“Be quiet.”

It was right then. A voice rang out. At the same time, the commotion in the hall stopped all at once.

When the shooting star turned its head, the nobles split apart like Moses' sea, and a man appeared there.

“The two guests willingly came to this earth for my sake.”

“Well, just by looking at it, you have the appearance of a king.”

A pot-bellied man was sitting on a throne.

“What greater proof can there be than this that my throne was given to me by God!”

“It is as you said, Your Majesty!”

“God is protecting Your Majesty’s throne!”

“With this, it won’t be long before the traitors’ heads will be hung in the square!”

The nobles all bowed their heads, and Yoo Seong looked at the king's sagging belly in silence. “

Then, without going on for too long, just tell me the situation.”

“Oh oh! Truly trustworthy comrade, but please wait a moment!”

At those words, the King shook his head as if it were absurd and said,

“Before that, we are planning to hold a grand festival for our visitors.”

Early that morning, in a room in the castle, Yoosung looked at Maria’s expression and asked,

“You don’t look good. Did you enjoy the meal?”

“I knew it would be like this when I saw the name of the tower.”

“Well, I don’t feel very good about fighting for a pot-bellied oppressor. I don’t know which side to call the bourgeoisie.”

At the saint's words, I lowered my head, thinking it was Yooseong. A map of the area was drawn on the table. The place where Yooseong and Maria were located was Old Castle, the capital of the kingdom. And there were enemies tightly surrounding the capital

. It was marked with chess pieces.

A republican revolutionary army that resists the oppression of kings and nobles and cries out to bring a new era for the people. “

Such an extravagant party when the capital is under siege. People are still starving in the streets.” “They don’t even care about things like fields.”

“Well, from what I can see, this guy looks a bit like a villain.”

“Yuseong was planning to attack this tower with the guild players sometime today, right before he came to France.”

Yoosung shrugged his shoulders and Maria calmly continued,

“Yuseong appeared just then.”

“...I guess the monarchs had a hand in it.”

“There is a high probability of that happening. Still, I am glad that I was able to enter this tower with Yoosung.”

Maria nodded with a wry smile.

In the world of towers, there are no such things as unexpected occurrences.

For example, the professor's escape tower just happened to lead to France, where a saint was nearby, or the swordsman and Yu competing in a race at the beginning of the season. If you happen to enter one of the towers at the right time and engage in a duel,

there is a high possibility of encountering a player you don't normally get along with in a tower shaped like a single-legged bridge, and if you happen to come out to the passage on the other side of the tower at the right time, there is also a high possibility of encountering a player you know.

Players are drawn to players because the power of monarchs who always want to see a new stage is at work.

And the next morning, that's what happened.

“Kick out the Ancien Regime!”

“Send in the revolutionary army and stop the hopeless resistance!”

The people of the capital, Old Castle, were gathering in front of the royal

castle and demonstrating. Then, armed royalist troops poured into the crowd and began to quickly suppress the protest.

Guns and swords danced around, and blood was sprayed.

“Rise up, awakened ones of Old Castle! Rise up for the revolution!”

Along with the Japanese uprising taking place around the city, loud shouts rang out outside the walls. The siege of the revolutionary army surrounding the city had begun. The time had come. The ground I was standing on shook. The impact of the cannons raining down

from

afar

. The entire city was surrounded, and the

hearts of those remaining in the capital were lost. They probably tried to end this sit-in by any means possible by communicating with the revolutionary army surrounding the area. Nevertheless, the king continued this unreasonable resistance

. There was only one reason to do it:

“It’s ruined.”

Looking down at the surrounding scenery from the castle, Yoo Seong muttered as if it were someone else's business.

“Why are you telling us what to do with this?”

The saint bit her lip softly. It was at the same time that the pot-bellied King invaded with his armed men.

“My guests! “It’s an emergency!”

“So why didn’t you drink a little less last night?”

“Abandon the capital and gather the remaining troops. We must flee to the Duchy of Bassel like this! There, they reorganized their forces again...

“That’s good.”

Yooseong calmly nodded at the king’s words.

“Let’s move, saintess.”

Maria nodded at Yoosung’s words. In any case, she is also a player who has consistently ranked in the top 10 over five seasons. Nothing changed.

“Damn traitors...! “What about the revolution? How dare you treat the king as such…!”

Inside the carriage, the pot-bellied king was swearing.

I was in a carriage that was running away after safely leaving the capital's Old Castle. And only a handful of royalist cavalry were desperately guarding the procession of the king and nobles.

Against the revolutionary army's pursuit party, which had already figured out their movements and started chasing them.

“Salvofire!”

“Don’t lose sight of the king and nobles. Capture them by any means possible!”

bang!

Red gunpowder was scattered. The barrels of the hastily galloping musketeers burst into flames, and the royalist soldiers began to fall from their horses one by one.

No matter how you look at it, it was a battle with no chance of winning, and it was a flight. Even if he flees to the duchy where his power is located, he cannot change the spirit of the times.

It should have been so.

Immediately after, a wall of cold rose between the fleeing king and the revolutionary cavalry.

An absurd wall of ice rose there, as if separating the fleeing king from the pursuing revolutionary army.

And the two men and the woman were left there.

“A wall of ice from the ground...!”

In front of the barrage of blades, the ranks of the revolutionary army's proud cavalry corps collapsed.

Watching the revolutionary army struggling, Yooseong adjusted the hilt of his frost sword and grabbed it.

Before I knew it, the king's escape procession was moving away, safely crossing the bridge over the river. Even if there were a few chasers, it would not be enough to take down all of the royalist cavalry protecting the king and nobles.

“Saint, are you ready?”

“Do I look unprepared?”

“That can’t be right.”

The saint said calmly and Yoosung turned his head, saying she knew that would happen.

“The intruders…

had reorganized their ranks and the revolutionary army’s cavalry was heading towards Yoosung and Maria. After that, an untold number of revolutionary troops were joining one after another.

Nevertheless, two visitors are standing guard in front of the bridge.

They were not unaware of its meaning.

It was right then.

“My friend, why on earth?”

A revolutionary cavalryman took off his helmet and shouted:

“Didn’t you fight for the cause of the new spirit of the times for our revolutionary army just before now?”

“It was truly the second coming of a saint that left no room for doubt...! “Thanks to the saintly lady’s actions, we were so close to victory!”

When Maria heard those words, her expression froze.

Only then did Yoosung understand why she needed his help.

“It’s not your first time in this world.”

“...It’s so ironic and cruel. “When I first started fighting for them, I didn’t hesitate at all.”

“The saint’s conscience should be an ordinary conscience/

And those who fought together, those who believed they were fighting for what was right, have now become enemies to be fought against. That must have been a pang of conscience that a saintly woman could never overcome.

That's why Yooseong didn't care. Immediately after

hitting

, bullets of cold air scattered from Yoosung's fingers. The ice bolt hit several revolutionary soldiers and swallowed the saintess.

“Do we still seem like noble apostles executing God’s will?”

As if a shooting star was blocking the saint's path, she adjusted the hilt of her sword. And said. In a voice without the slightest emotion-

“So, this is your final warning. Stop chasing like this and retreat. “We also don’t want to shed your blood anymore.”

“That can’t be possible.”

One of the cavalrymen of the revolutionary army responded, heedless of Yooseong's threats.

“Liberty Equality Fraternity.”

“...I’ve heard this a lot somewhere.”

After Yoosung muttered that, he soon realized that it was one of the slogans of the French Revolution.

“Even if the person standing in the way is an intruder, it doesn’t change anything.”

One of the revolutionary soldiers muttered coldly.

“From now on, we will carry out tactics against insiders!”

“Be careful, Yoosung.”

“There’s no way it’s just a musket cavalry fighting in a tier 6 tower/”

Yoosung nodded, saying he wasn’t surprised at Maria’s words.

“Carry out anti-invader tactics with the Ironside at the forefront!”

“Never break the battle line!” Clap, clap, clap!

It was right then. Revolutionary troops from all directions lined up with muskets, and soldiers they had never seen before began to join them.

Unlike the gun soldiers they had faced so far in the Iron Age, they were covered in heavy, water-tight armor.

“Execute the armored tactical stance!”

“Tactical posture implemented!”

At the same time, the iron armor began to wriggle around their bodies like living creatures.

Like a reinforced exoskeleton, the armor covered and assimilated the troopers' bodies, allowing them to understand what was happening there.

Some kind of magical power contained in the armor is merging with their bodies as one.

Before we knew it, the soldiers of the Iron Age were wearing smooth, reinforced armor.

“Magic armor...

Yooseong muttered quietly and the Iron Guard stretched out their arms in unison.

At the same time, the arm of the armor began to twist and take the shape of a gun barrel. Immediately afterwards, black gunpowder was scattered along the gun barrel.

“Start shooting!”

“Maintain formation and cover the iron column!”

The black powder of the musket infantry surrounding the area was also sprayed.

And a shield of light blocked his path, and Yooseong silently adjusted the hilt of his sword and grabbed it.

Before we knew it, the iron squad, sprayed with black gunpowder, had adjusted their swords and started rushing towards them.

The battle worthy of the name of the 6th tier tower had finally begun, and the enemies were in front of it.

It was the military.
