As soon as Kaor and the knights in the Shadow Mountains received the summons from Giselle, they rushed to Fenris Territory, dragging the hunters bound by contract.
There were some who refused to go, but they all changed their minds under the strong caress of Kaor, the 'King of Ironcliff'.
Since the Turian Kingdom guaranteed Giselle's contract, the hunters who had nowhere to go could not run away.
The other knights were reassigned to the Knights Templar and moved with Giselle, while Kaor was given the task of leading the hunters and protecting the magicians.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Heeeeeeling!
"Eww!"
Desmond's cavalry, who had never faced hunters before, were unable to respond to the sudden attack and fell indiscriminately.
"Hey! This is easier than monsters!"
To them, cavalry were nothing more than four-legged, slightly larger monsters.
It's a monster that only has the skill to run strongly in a straight line.
For hunters accustomed to fighting monsters boasting all sorts of bizarre physical structures, dealing with cavalry was not that difficult.
"Oops! It escaped!"
Of course, it was impossible to stop all the thousand cavalrymen. Some cavalrymen who had managed to break through the ranks of clumsy hunters charged straight at the magicians.
Doo doo doo doo doo!
Vanessa, who had been casting a spell by stretching her hand into the air, turned her head to look at the cavalrymen. She extended her other, empty hand to the approaching men.
"Earth Wall."
Kuuuuung!
A wall made of earth suddenly rose up. Desmond's charging cavalry crashed into the wall.
Kwaaang! Kwaaang! Kwaaang!
"Eww!"
Heeeeeeeeeing!
The horses, shocked by the blow, screamed and fell down. Some cavalrymen fell through the wall.
The cavalry following behind had no choice but to stop their horses.
Kaoru shouted in horror at the sight.
"You idiots! We need to protect the wizards! This isn't about hunting monsters!"
Kaor, who had been maintaining his form, ran forward in a hurry and cut down the cavalrymen. Only then did the other hunters form a double line again and block the cavalrymen.
"Mr. Ha… … I almost got in big trouble."
Kaor sweated coldly. If the wizards were injured – especially Vanessa – Giselle would not leave her and the hunters alone.
No, if that had happened, it wouldn't have been a problem for Giselle, but that she might have lost the war and had to run away.
Meanwhile, while Vanessa was distracted for a moment while fighting off the cavalry, magics poured out from Desmond's camp.
Vanessa quickly turned around and dispelled the incoming magic, but some of the magic had already hit the Fenris army that had already charged in as intended.
Since the circle magic was blocked by the armor, it didn't cause much damage, but if this situation continued, it would be dangerous.
"Tch!"
Vanessa unleashed a wide-ranged attack spell on Desmond's camp.
She didn't think it would work since the other side also had 6 circles. She poured out her magical power even though she knew it would fail, just to divert the wizards' attention towards herself.
"Coolook!"
Vanessa was now vomiting blood not only from her nose but also from her mouth, but she gritted her teeth and held on.
Meanwhile, the hunters charged straight at Desmond's cavalry, who were hesitating against the mud wall. The cavalrymen were unable to dodge and were caught up in the melee with the hunters.
And it was a much more advantageous fight for the Hunters, since they were used to fighting haphazardly without a proper formation.
Boom! Boom!
"Die, you little shits!"
"Ugh!"
The cavalrymen struggled against the hunters from horseback, but with limited movement, they were forced to retreat.
The hunters formed a group and swung their swords vigorously, pressuring the cavalry.
"Hahahaha! I'm the best!"
Among them, the one with the most outstanding skills was Kaor. He showed off his skills that had become stronger than before and cut down the cavalry indiscriminately.
"Ugh! What the hell is this kid!"
"Didn't the main force just charge forward?"
"Kill this guy first!"
Kaor smiled with satisfaction as he watched the enemies rushing towards him.
"Huh, are you coming to block this body? Alright, everyone, come at me!"
Kaor was even more excited and jumped up and down. Even though they were all enemies, she loved being in the spotlight like this.
As Kaor continued to advance, the number of cavalrymen heading in the opposite direction decreased, making it much easier for the Hunters to fight.
Among the hunters, a man who looked a little young cut off the horse's leg. As the horse fell, he immediately raised his sword and cut down the rider.
Phew!
A clean blow with no unnecessary details. It was Arel who had come to the Fenris territory following Giselle who had saved him.
"Phew… … ."
Arel took a deep breath and gripped his sword tightly again.
Having only received basic training, he was unable to participate in the cavalry battle. Instead, he followed Kaor and served as an escort for the magicians.
I have been working hard to build up my stamina and participate in training to become stronger. Although I still have a long way to go, my determination to protect the territory is second to none.
'That can't happen again.'
Many people were killed and the village was destroyed when it was plundered by barbarians. I never wanted to experience that again.
My younger brother is smart and is studying public administration. Now, Fenris has become his second home that he must protect.
"Ugh!"
Arel swung his sword again without stopping. His muscles were tense and he seemed tired already, but he did not lose focus.
Wielding a weapon accurately at any time and in any situation.

It was the first thing Giselle taught me.
Kaor stroked Arel's chin as he watched her posture being so neat and precise.
"Wow… … You're quite the childish person. It's like seeing my old self. You seem to be training hard, just like I used to."
Never. When she was Arel's age, Kaor was too busy drinking and having fun to really train.
Even as Kaor giggled and praised himself, the hunters continued to reduce the cavalrymen one by one.
Thanks to their efforts, Desmond's cavalry was unable to reach the wizards. The surviving cavalry were now busy fleeing.
Those who escape will either rejoin the other side or leave the battlefield.
Kaor shouted as the hunters who had been dealing with the cavalry began to carelessly chase after the fleeing horses.
"Don't chase me! Don't chase me! You little shits!"
The hunters then came to their senses and surrounded the wizards, keeping a close watch on the surroundings. When the situation seemed to have been somewhat resolved, Kaor approached Arel.
"Hey, Aesong. Are you fighting a little bit?"
"thank you!"
"Did you see me fight? How was it?"
"It was really great!"
In Arel's eyes, Kaor was also an incredibly skilled man. How could anyone not be envious of his skills when he was able to single-handedly slaughter dozens of cavalrymen?
Kaor asked again with a smug smile.
"Who do you think is stronger, me or my inspiration?"
"...."
Arel turned his head slightly to the side without answering. Then Kaor followed his gaze and asked.
"Who do you think is stronger?"
Arel turned his head away again, feeling burdened by that face. But still, the face followed him.
"who?"
It was so childish. It was so childish that it almost drove me crazy, but I couldn't help but answer. In the end, Arel had to compromise with reality.
"… … Kaor seems stronger."
"Hahahaha! Right? The old man is sick right now and was carried behind me. That's just how weak people are. Hahahaha!"
Gillian and the wounded have long since left the battlefield. They are probably being treated by Fiote and his men at a makeshift camp away from here.
Doo doo doo doo doo!
Emerson, who was chasing the cavalry, glanced at the rear of the quiet Fenris army and frowned.
'Did you fail?'
I had a brief moment of anticipation since the magic was cast on the friendly side, but it seems it was just a slight distraction.
'I have to decide.'
Should I continue to chase the cavalry or attack the wizard?
Emerson pondered for a moment and then looked ahead.
The cavalry continued to flee from the cavalry, while continuing to shoot arrows at Desmond's men fighting on the other side.
It was a unit that was optimized for weakening the opponent.
If we don't deal with those cavalrymen, our troops will continue to be dragged around. But… … .
'Let's deal with the wizard first.'
Even though there are 6 circles of Willow, Desmond's army is being pushed back because they are unable to properly use magic attacks to keep the opponents in check.
If we just deal with the wizards on Fenris' side, the battle situation will change in an instant. One of the reasons the cavalry was destroyed was because of the wizards' presence.
So there was no need to be dragged around by the cavalry.
I had decided to attack the wizards first, but I couldn't go straight to the wizards. If I let them go right now, the cavalry would go to help Fenris' army in the center.
First of all, we had to push them as far away from the center as possible.
"Try harder!"
Emerson shouted loudly and kept urging his horse, but the horsemen were moving fast and it was difficult to drive them as far as he wanted.
The armor worn by the cavalrymen was full body armor, but it didn't seem that heavy. The horses were also very strong, so I wonder where they got them from.
Since there were more of them, they didn't even try to engage them, and just ran away while shooting arrows. In the end, there was no choice but to predict the direction they would move and drive them away.
Doo doo doo doo doo!
'Just a little more!'
Emerson predicted the cavalry's movement path, changing direction little by little based on his previous experience.
Emerson, who had a long career as a cavalry commander, gradually closed the distance and caught up with Fenris's cavalry archers.
Ascon, who was at the rear of the fleeing cavalry, kept looking back and talking.
"Hey, you piece of shit! Hurry up and run! I'm going to die!"
The enemy is pursuing him with fierce momentum. He needs to run away quickly, but his horse is suspiciously slower than the others.
Even though the horse had already fallen behind and was almost out of the line, it was running lightly as if it was out for a walk.
"f*ck! Please! You f*cking ****!"
No matter how much I curse, it doesn't go any faster. If this continues, I'll be the first to die.
Finally, Ascon gritted his teeth and took up his bow.
"Should we start by taking care of that kid?"
When I turn around, I see the commander running hard at the front.
Desmond's cavalrymen did not wear full plate armour like Fenris. The commander who was pursuing him now wore chain mail like the other cavalrymen, and a helmet with slits over the eyes.
If you hit the small gap in that helmet, you can kill the commander in one shot.
Elves are so skilled at archery that they can hit even the smallest gaps if they focus. This is because they use the power of nature.
Squeak… … .
Ascon drew his bow and focused. His body shook, but it didn't matter. The arrow would ride the wind and hit the target accurately.
A skill that only elves can display.
It took a while to aim, but it was a devastating blow.
'I feel the wind.'
The wind was telling him that his whole body was telling him the way. Now is the time. If he shoots now, he can pierce that commander's face.
'Riding the wind.'
Pfft!
Emerson, who was chasing Ascon, immediately raised his shield as soon as the light flashed.
Wheaaaaaaaaa!
The arrow flew high into the sky with the wind and disappeared.
"Hey Shibara, this isn't working."
Purrururk!
Ascon's horse ran, showing his teeth and laughing at something funny.
On the other hand, Emerson's face distorted with anger when he saw the arrow flying high in the sky.
"How dare you play such a prank!"
It was insulting. The archers' archery skills couldn't have been that bad.
It was obvious that he was deliberately shooting his arrows that way to tease himself, as he was the slowest runner at the back.
If you can, please follow me.
How dare you throw such a provocation at yourself in this urgent war situation.
Emerson was busy grinding this.
"I will catch you and kill you."
I just had to push a little further, and then I was going to turn around and push the wizards back.
The heat of the battlefield became more intense. Both sides tried their best to break the other, but neither side was able to land a decisive blow.
Fenris's army had excellent individual skills, but they were too small in number, and Desmond's army was holding its ground with overwhelming numbers, but was unable to seize the initiative.
That's why both sides tried to change the situation in one go by dealing with the magicians first.
However, the longer the battle went on, the more disadvantaged Fenris was. In fact, it was not entirely clear that he was at an advantage even now. If Giselle had not been active, the situation might have changed a long time ago.
Kwaaang! Kwaaang!
Giselle, swinging her spear with glowing red eyes, was truly overwhelming.
Desmond's heavy infantry, which continued to surge forward, were blown away without even being able to properly block his attacks.
Shields and armor were torn apart mercilessly, corpses were piled up, and spears flew from all directions, striking at any gaps.
"Eww! This monster!"
"Knights, stop him quickly!"
"Stop it! They're after Willow!"
Shouts erupted from all directions, but no one could stop Giselle, who was advancing steadily.
They were completely surrounded and could not be stopped. This was because the knights and soldiers of Fenris who followed behind were fighting behind Giselle with their strong defensive capabilities.
Ddddddd!
Jiselle felt the strain on her body gradually. As she approached the wizard, more excellent knights joined her and soldiers also attacked her tenaciously.
'Just a little more.'
But there isn't much left. If we just break through the defenses a few more times, we'll be able to cut off the wizard's neck.
Boom! Boom!
As Jisel and the Black King advance, enemies are pushed back and a path is created. Their appearance is like that of an evil spirit dominating the battlefield.
As Desmond's army's defense line was being helplessly breached, a loud shout was heard from one side.
"Get out of the way!"
Choaaaak!
The troops that had been fighting against Jiselle quickly retreated, putting more distance between them.
Doo doo doo doo doo!
At the same time, a group of knights appeared on horseback, wearing silver armor. They were all carrying halberds, spears with axe blades attached.
The knight at the head of the group, Rones, shouted.
"Kill the Earl of Fenris!"
Desmond's Royal Guard, the most elite knights, all rushed towards Giselle.
