Survival Story of a Sword King in a Fantasy World

Allendia Civil War (2)

Medis Lata, the capital of the Millennium kingdom Kaldris.

After a long time, the ruler visited the regent palace, located in the north of the royal palace.

Gerhan, who had been away from the palace and controlled state affairs only through long-distant communications, visited the palace himself.

A middle-aged man asked him anxiously as he sat in the office reading the piles of reports.

“Are you alright, Your Grace?”

It was Kaldris’s interior secretary, Atman.

He was also aware of the ‘Against the Goddesses’Will plan’ as a loyal servant of the Thunder King, who had been serving Garhan since childhood.

“If you remain here in the secular world, you will lose your life span…”

“I can’t help it. Hollien’s been beaten up.”

With a scrunch on his forehead, Garhan agonized.

“What the hell did they do?”

At first, he thought the information was wrong.

The Hollien that he knew was beyond defeat.

If the Thunder King himself became an enemy of the Transcendental, could he beat her?

It depended on the standard of victory.

It was possible to defeat Hollien and subdue her territory and power.

Of course, he needed some luck.

However, when asked to kill her after overpowering her, there was no answer, to be frank.

“No, how can she be caught if she just used the skill, Transcendence, and ran away?”

There was only one scenario that he could think of.

She was off her guard and was beaten even before she could use her last resort.

The Top Three had reigned for too long as the absolute powers of the human race.

They’re in a position where they couldn’t help but be arrogant.

‘Maybe if Genovia or I were there instead of Hollien, we would’ve let my guard down as well.

However, additional premises were needed to produce such results.

The opponent had to be far stronger than the Transcendental.

No matter how arrogant she was, she wouldn’t let her guard down when her life was on alert.

“Then she was defeated by overwhelming force before she even noticed the danger…”

It was possible if the dead Baotolt came back alive.

Garhan reflected on what was reported.

“You said Hollien lost all her power after losing to the Sword King’s successor, right?”

Then, was he a strong individual comparable to the Baotolt in his prime?

“That’s hard to believe either.”

The successor to the Sword King, the Valtara warrior, Felard Bean.

He was a young man in his mid-20s at best.

‘An ageless genius from heaven has caught up with the fact that he has reached nothing in more than 100 years?’

But if that wasn’t the case, nothing could explain why Hollien couldn’t escape…

“Well, I don’t know.”

Hollien had already lost her strength anyway.

He hadn’t heard from her at all, and all the Aliens in Akhtarun were out of control.

Hence, Garhan took care of their problems first.

He revived the ban’s influence and issued a new order for the Aliens to return to Akhtarun.

The interior secretary, Atman, asked.

“But are you sure about pulling the Aliens out of the battlefield?”

At that rate, the Fairy Kingdom would be taken over by the incarnation of darkness.

“At their level, they’ll be able to reverse the situation of the war to a certain extent…”

If they gave strength to the Fairy King before being pushed further, they could buy time.

However, Garhan refused.

“It’s already happened. Now I have no choice but to give up Allendia.”

And he sighed, leaning against the chair.

“Oh, by the way, I see things have changed while I was in the sanctuary.”

A conference room in Udar Molniya.

Kibie, Han-bin, and the six Templar Lords had gathered to hold a strategic meeting.

Leon Hart and Palmer each relayed the information they had obtained.

“The Thunder King is back in his throne.”

“The same goes for the Queen of the Mado Kingdom.”

Their military power couldn’t be compared to the three continental powers, but the six Churches were far superior to them in some areas.

One of those was information-gathering power.

The six Goddesses’ believers were spread throughout Latna.

There were countless followers in the Kaldris Kingdom and the Mado Kingdom, reaching all the way to their hearts.

Frederick and Sabine Asil also spoke.

“The undaunted murders in all parts of the continent have disappeared.”

“It’s proof that Thunder King and Archmage have regained control of Akhtarun’s Aliens.”

Merdill replied with a deep look.

“That’s a relief, but we can’t just love it.”

That was also evidence that the Akhtarun’s Aliens, a powerful force to reckon with, were once again in the hands of enemies.

Ryu Han-bin asked.

“How do you think they’ll act?”

“There are three options expected.”

Angelica counted on her fingers.

“First, attach the Aliens of Akhtarun to the Fairy King’s forces to prevent Allendia from coming over here.”

That was the best option for the Thunder King and Archmage.

They could maintain a powerful lead without handing over Allendia, one of the three continental powers.

“But that’s become an impossible choice.”

Akhtarun’s Aliens had already cut the Allendia Army in half and gone mad.

Why would they try to become allies again?

What the hell would that be for?

-Hello, we are the ones who slaughtered your colleagues a few days ago! We are here to be on the same side again under the orders of the Thunder King!

Would they take it?

“The second is to use them as a guerrilla group in a separate way and disturb the rear of the denominations.”

That was the same thing the Holy Punishers had done.

They wouldn’t join the Fairy King’s army. Instead, they would shake the six Churches and disturb the people’s hearts with the Aliens of Akhtarun alone.

If they used that plan, the six Churches would need to be prepared for great damage.

“Fortunately, there’s little chance of that being used.”

It would be the civilians, not the churches’ military forces, who would be harmed by that method.

In the long run, they could reduce the six Churches’ power, but it wouldn’t work very well in the short term.

“On the contrary, it will only raise the morale of the extremely angry Churches.”

Later on, when the Thunder King or Arc Mage would directly use the Akhtarun’s Aliens, they would face tremendous resistance.

The people of the Kaldris Kingdom and the Mado Kingdom would never understand.

“We’d be lucky if they moved like that, but we shouldn’t expect that kind of luck.”

In the end, there was only one option left.

“Once they’ve pulled out all of Akhtarun’s Aliens, they’ll put them in the military system of each country.”

It was the most efficient way for them at that point.

“They’ll then ally with each other as they declare war against us.”

Tasmaral, capital of Mado, the Rune Kingdom.

An elegant blonde black beauty sat on the throne of Kanonas, the tower of the audience.

She was the greatest Mage on earth, Queen of the Rune, Archmage Genovia Rune Spellmaster.

She slowly opened her mouth as she looked around her officials.

“Our old friend and my close friend, the Fairy Kingdom and Queen Hollien, underwent a misfortune. In the name of friendship, how can we leave them be?”

A dignified voice landed on everyone’s ears.

“In the name of Rune! Those foolish lunatics will pay the price of blood!”

The servants bowed their heads and expressed their consent in unison.

“Long live the Queen!”

“It will come true at Her Majesty’s will!”

Genovia looked back at the skinny middle-aged man on the left.

Otros, the Prime Minister of the Mado Kingdom.

“Prepare for war. How long will it take?”

Otros answered confidently after the calculation.

“In 50 days, your army will be ready to punish them.”

* * *

After hearing Angelica’s prediction, Ryu Han-bin was embarrassed.

“50 days? That long?”

On the other hand, Effir was frightened.

“50 days? Isn’t that too fast?”

It was the difference between the reserve forces from South Korea, who were only familiar with the sense of modern warfare, and the Wyvern from Latna, who grew up under the Flying Dragon Knights.

“Is that fast, Effir?”

“Of course.”

The three continental powers had been no different from military alliances.

The Top Three were old friends.

Thus, their military forces weren’t directed at each other but were also deployed in other regions, mainly at the border of the Four Prohibited Areas or the frontier.

The troops had to be moved to rally, secure supply lines, and march to the battlefield. In a world without cars and airplanes.

It wasn’t that there were still 50 days left.

It was that there were only 50 days left.

Kibie had a serious expression as she looked down at the map of Allendia on the table.

“We must defeat the Fairy Kingdom as fast as we can.”

* * *

Duke Artransas of the Elves, the fourth king of Allendia.

Those who swore allegiance to Roflan, the Fairy King, were fighting against the six denominations’ army, atMiros, the strongest fortress the family boasted.

Due to its thick walls and geographical location, it was a highly defendable fortress and was known to handle siege powers ten times its garrison.

But at that moment, the impenetrable infrastructure was collapsing relentlessly.

The red-haired Mage raised his staff high and chanted a spell.

“Roar and burn the world! Crimson Flame Typhoon!”

A merciless firestorm broke out repeatedly.

The duke’s Mages and Spiritists tried to stop it with all their might, but their efforts weren’t enough.

Soon, the heatwave burned through the fortress and turned the soldiers into ashes.

“Argh!”

The southern part of the fortress had also been breached, and those carrying the Goddesses’ flag rushed into its perimeters.

“Charge!”

“Bring heavenly punishment on those who are against the Goddesses’ will!”

Artis grinned as he lowered the Fire Dragon King’s staff back.

“This is good.”

Because he was level 94, he could use such a great magic tool.

“As expected, the higher the level is, the better. It doesn’t matter if one’s being stupid or not.”

On the other side of the wall, a silver-haired Magic Swordswoman was overwhelming the battlefield.

– Frost Columns’ Sword Dance!

As her twin blades swayed around in the air, countless ice blades fluttered like petals.

Whenever the blades shone, the soldiers around her fell like logs.

One of her opponents was Sir Lupetton, the Elf Magic Swordsman of the Atransas family.

“You… You’re so strong…”

Lupetton glared at the girl, Effir, as he struggled to breathe.

It was indeed a tremendous skill.

The duke’s second strongest fighter wasn’t even a match against her.

“You’re just a teenage girl… How did you become so powerful?”

“Uh, standing around and waiting?”

Effir had a puzzled look on her face.

No matter how much of a genius she was, if Ryu Han-bin hadn’t given her an energy boost, it couldn’t have been possible.

“Even so…”

Lupetton clenched his teeth and stood up.

“We won’t lose!”

They still had an indomitable power among them.

The most powerful knight, Lord Modetus, was even called the guardian of Atransas, a level 92 Aura user!

“He will lead Artransas to victory!”

As if Lupetton’s cry was a sign, a robust dwarf knight appeared from inside the castle.

Wearing bronze armor, he emitted brilliant Aura all over his body, and he showed off his formidable spirit as if he were a god of war emerging from the ground.

“Everyone, don’t falter! For Atransas!”

Then a man appeared from the side of the Church.

The barbarian, showing off his upper body, was enveloped by an ominous red Aura. He had a gigantic sword in his hand as well.

The two superpowers collided against one another.

“Argh!”

The result was disastrous.

The guardian of the duke’s family was blown away in a single clash.

“Who… Who is that guy?”

The soldiers shouted in fright.

“He is the heir to the Sword King!”
