Everyone was silent.

The soldiers of Fenris who had been climbing over the walls, the knights who were already tired from the battle, and even the enemies who had been running towards them with shouts all stopped moving.

No one could clearly see what exactly Giselle was doing because of the blinding light that suddenly burst out.

Gulp.

I just closed my eyes for a moment and when I opened them the gate was collapsing.

The knights who had been blankly watching from Giselle's side eventually muttered something one by one.

"Seo, the castle gate… … ."

"How can you do that with a sword… … ."

"Your Majesty, with this power… … ."

The knights of Fenris who had been with Giselle until now also just looked at the castle gate with blank expressions.

It wasn't just the allies who were dumbfounded. Cavaldi's soldiers also looked on in confusion as the gates collapsed.

"Wow, our gate has collapsed."

"One person did that?"

"Who on earth is the author… … ."

It is said that Count Balzac, the first swordsman of the kingdom, can break down the castle gate by himself.

But that was just a rumor, a story from a very distant world to them.

But now, the person who did such a terrible thing is right in front of me.

That too as an enemy.

"Hey, I can't win."

"We're all going to die."

The faces of the Cavaldi soldiers slowly began to turn into despair. They had been starving for a long time and were surrounded, so their morale was already at rock bottom.

In the meantime, I confirmed that the Fenris Army was digging a tunnel and placed my last hope on it.

I thought I would win after tonight, but that hope was dashed.

So, I have no choice but to lose my will to fight.

The battlefield, which had been moving rapidly, became quiet. No one spoke, shocked by the shocking event that made everyone forget they were at war.

And Jiselle, who had caused the transfer, looked at the remains of the collapsed gate for a moment.

"Phew… … ."

He took a deep breath and just sat down.

"Ugh, it's been so long since I wrote, I feel like I'm going to die."

It was still difficult to write as freely as I did in my previous life.

Because it consumed so much mana, it took so much time to prepare that I could only use it once.

If I had regained the state of my previous life, not only would this flashy light not have appeared, but I would not have had to use it only once and then collapse.

"My lord!"

"Are you okay?"

The knights who were nearby came running. Seeing them, Giselle waved her hands.

"Don't worry, it's okay. What are you all doing absentmindedly in the middle of a battle? The enemy is right in front of you, right in front of you. Tsk tsk, you all lack training."

The knights of Fenris, who suddenly came to their senses at those words, took up a battle stance again.

But the enemies also came to their senses. The quick-witted Count Cavaldi pointed at Giselle and shouted.

"No matter how strong that guy is, he's already exhausted! Look at him! Isn't he unable to move right now? He's clearly exhausted! Strike quickly! I'm telling you to block the gate with your body!"

At those words, Cavaldi's knights and soldiers gripped their weapons tightly. This was their last chance to defeat the enemy.

They ran out, shouting like crazy.

"Waaaaaaaaaah!"

There was only one emotion that dominated the charging Cavaldi army.

It's just fear.

Now is the only chance to kill the author sitting in front of the gate.

Now is the only chance to block the gates before the enemy's massive force arrives.

If not.

They will all be slaughtered.

That fear was the final driving force that moved them.

"My lord, please take cover!"

"We will stop it!"

"Everyone, come together!"

The knights, already exhausted, gritted their teeth and gathered around Giselle.

Gillian and Kaor also began to form up, leading the friendly soldiers who had crossed the walls.

Looking at them, Jiselle smiled leisurely.

"Okay. Just don't block the road and move to the side."

"yes?"

When the knights gave questioning answers to Jiselle's unexpected words.

Doo doo doo doo doo doo!

The sound of the ground shaking grew louder, and a loud voice could be heard from outside the castle.

"Get out of the way!"

The knights, startled by the sound, stepped aside.

As soon as they made way, a man rode into the castle on horseback.

Pfft!

"My Lord! I am here! Are you alright?"

Lucas, who likes to show off, started making a fuss and taking care of Giselle as soon as he came in.

Giselle smiled and said to him,

"It's okay, just sweep it away."

"All right!"

Lucas held his spear high and ran towards the enemies. His body was throbbing with excitement as he wanted to fight quickly and coolly.

"My lord! I am here too!"

The one who appeared right after that was Piss… … no, Muscle Gordon.

He too, like Lucas, took up a spear and bravely charged towards the enemies.

Since the two people had decent experience and skills, they were given the lead in command.

The knights of Fenris who had been waiting outside the castle rushed in one after another, following Lucas and Gordon.

They all passed by Giselle on either side and exchanged a few words.

"Your Majesty! Thank you for your hard work!"

"Now leave it to us!"

"I believed it!"

Some people had proud expressions, some had surprised expressions, and some had moved expressions.

What was common among them was a firm determination to become the strength of the lord.

"Let's sweep away the enemies!"

With someone's shout, the spears of the Fenris knights began to glow blue.

Doo doo doo doo doo doo!

Cavaldi's army gritted their teeth as they watched the knights approach with great momentum and the sound of their hooves resonating through the earth.

As they were running towards the castle gate, they did not have time to properly form up to deal with the cavalry.

They clashed head-on with the Fenris knights, pinning their slim hopes on the heavy armor they wore.

But hope is just hope.

Kwaaaaang!

"Eww!"

The knights' blue spears pierced through the enemy's armor in an instant.

With a single clash, the ranks of the Cavaldi army collapsed in an instant. However, the knights of Fenris did not stop and continued to advance as if they were grinding down their enemies.

Even if they were heavy infantry, it was impossible to stop the charging knights without even forming a proper formation.

Count Cavaldi could only watch blankly from behind as his troops were swept away like autumn leaves.

"W, how could this be… … . There are so many articles, so many articles?"

Like Jaymon, he couldn't believe what was happening.

They can't win. With that number of knights, they were a force that would never be able to win if they fought head-on.

And that wasn't the end of it.

"Wow!"

Fenris' soldiers, lined up on both sides of the wall, were charging forward.

The soldiers who had already entered through the gate also spread out and began to surround the area on all sides.

"Eww! Save me!"

Cavaldi's screams echo from all directions.

Massacre, this was a complete massacre.

Count Cavaldi's vision took in the sight of his soldiers, the pride of the North, falling in vain.

The dreamlike scene didn't feel real. Time seemed to pass slowly.

Then, someone shouted loudly as if to wake him up.

"My lord! Avoid! You must avoid!"

It was Leslie, the commander of the Cavaldi Knights.

Only then did Count Cavaldi come to his senses and grit his teeth.

"It's clear that the royalist faction supported the knights. We got hit!"

There couldn't have been this many knights and soldiers in the Fenris territory. Count Cavaldi couldn't help but think that the prince's faction had taken advantage of this difficult time to attack the duke's faction first.

Leslie grabbed Count Cavaldi's arm urgently.

"That's not important! You must evacuate now! The enemies are surrounding this place!"

"Let go! Are you telling me to run away from that brat?"

Count Cavaldi roughly shook Leslie's hand away.

My pride could not tolerate being treated like a brat like Baron Fenris.

"What are you guys doing! Get in formation! Get in formation and fight!"

Count Cavaldi screamed with his eyes wide open.

In fact, the game is already decided.

The Cavaldi army lost half of its forces in an instant due to the charge of the Fenris knights. The Fenris soldiers who had begun the siege were also easily suppressing them.

The few surviving Cavaldi soldiers were barely holding on, hiding behind their shields.

The moment the siege formation was completed, the knights of Fenris shouted loudly from all sides.

"He who throws down his weapon and falls to the ground will be spared! He who resists to the end will not escape death!"

That shout was the signal that the battle was over.

dump.

One of Cavaldi's soldiers dropped his weapon and fell to the ground.

As if on cue, the Cavaldi forces, barely holding on, began to quickly collapse.

Clank, clank.

The sound of weapons being thrown echoed incessantly from all over the place.

Although about half of them still had their weapons, they had already lost all will to fight.

After witnessing the mighty power of Fenris' army, I no longer had the will to fight.

It was all as Giselle had intended.

He had ordered Lucas and Gordon to push through the first assault quickly and then slow down the attack.

There is no need to kill all the soldiers. Those soldiers will now be forcibly incorporated into Fenris' army.

The battlefield became breathtakingly quiet in an instant.

Apart from the occasional groans of the wounded, no other sound was heard.

Even the knights of Fenris, who usually chattered and chattered ceaselessly, remained silent.

Because they knew that their master had work left to do.

"Get up! Get up and fight! If you don't get up right now, I'll kill you all!"

At that moment, Count Cavaldi's voice broke the silence and echoed throughout the battlefield.

All he had around him were the knight commander Leslie and a dozen or so knights. But Count Cavaldi still could not accept the fact that he had been defeated.

His pride, obsession, and arrogance still prevented him from acknowledging the young girl named Jiselle.

Thud thud.

Someone's footsteps are heard. All the knights and soldiers of Fenris are lined up on both sides as if making a path.

Count Cavaldi looked at the approaching man with a heavy air.

"you...?"

He was the one who broke the gate. He was the one who showed amazing force.

It seemed that breaking down the gate was a burden to him as well. His face was extremely pale, and his fatigue was evident in his every step.

Count Cavaldi quickly recognized who he was by the aura he radiated and the reactions of those around him.

"You… are you Baron Fenris?"

"Yes, I am Baron Fenris."

"How did you get such skills… … ."

Count Cavaldi's words could not be continued until the end, because Leslie, who was right next to him, turned his horse and ran away.

The author, who was the commander of a knighthood in a territory, abandoned his lord and ran away!

Everyone around them, whether it was Fenris or Cavaldi, had a dumbfounded expression. Count Cavaldi's face was stained with humiliation.

The Fenris soldiers who had surrounded them raised their weapons to stop Leslie.

"Get out of the way!"

Leslie drew his sword with an urgent expression. He was planning to break through the siege and escape.

Still, he is the commander of the knights of the countship. His skills must be formidable.

As the soldiers stood tensely preparing for an attack, Gillian's axe flew from behind Leslie.

Phew!

"Kwaaak!"

Because he was in such a hurry to escape, he was practically defenseless. Leslie, who couldn't dodge and had the axe stuck in his back, fell off his horse.

"Coolook!"

He tried to get up, even though he was vomiting blood.

As he stood up, using his sword as a cane, Gillian, who had approached him without him noticing, was standing in front of him with a blank expression on her face.

Leslie said, holding out a trembling hand.

"Okay, wait a minute. I surrender… … ."

Phew!

Before he could finish speaking, Gillian's sword struck Leslie's neck.

Leslie's headless body shook for a moment before collapsing.

Gillian swung his sword once, brushing away the blood, then looked around at the remaining Cavaldi knights with an arrogant expression.

"Kneel before your lord immediately."

The knights of Cavaldi snickered at Gillian's words.

These are different from soldiers. They are people who have lived for a long time with pride and self-esteem as knights.

The commander of the knights has already died in an ugly escape. If they kneel down too, Cavaldi's honor will never be restored.

A knight drew his sword and said:

"We will fight to the end for our lord and our territory."

At those words, all of Cavaldi's knights rushed towards Gillian.

At the same time, the knights of Kaor and Fenris who were next to Giselle also ran out.

Kaang!

In an instant, a dozen or so people began fighting, entangled in each other.

Count Cavaldi watched his knights fall one by one, biting his lip until it bled.

Now it truly felt like the end. All the fame and status I had built up was crumbling.

"My lord… … . Hurry and get out of here… … ."

Cavaldi's knight, who was spitting out blood with his chest pierced, was unable to continue speaking.

Because his head was blown off by Kaor's sword.

Count Cavaldi closed his eyes as he watched the last knight fall.

Jiselle's calm voice continued.

"Pull him down."

Several knights forcibly pulled Count Cavaldi from his horse and forced him to his knees.

"Let go! You rascals! Do you know who I am?"

Count Cavaldi screamed and struggled, but was unable to escape the knights' cruel grip.

Finally, Count Cavaldi, who had lost the strength to resist, lowered his head. He could not bear the boiling sense of humiliation.

At one point, Giselle came up to him and spoke to him in a cold tone.

"It's been a while, Count Cavaldi."

Count Cavaldi let out a faint laugh without even raising his head.

"Hehe, you say it's been a long time since you last saw me? Do you know me?"

"Well, I know very well."

Jiselle recalled her previous life. As soon as the Duke set his sights on Ferdium, Count Cavaldi cut off the iron ore supply to Ferdium.

Because of this, Ferdium was unable to properly maintain its weapons, let alone procure new ones.

That wasn't all. Count Cavaldi even sent troops to help in the destruction of Ferdium.

How could I not know such a person? How could I forget such a person?

In her previous life, she had gone there herself and split his head open. But even so, the dark flame burning in Jiselle's heart did not go out.

Even though he broke and destroyed everything, the flame grew bigger and bigger, burning his soul endlessly.

Now it's time to put out one of those flames.

Giselle slowly bent down and grabbed Count Cavaldi's hair, forcing him to raise his head.

"Hey, you… … How dare you… … ."

Looking into the angry face of Count Cavaldi, Giselle smiled ferociously.

"That's what I wanted to say. How dare you."
