I was excommunicated from the Holy Knights

62 – Baeksan Battle 3

A thick fog fills the eyes

And… the noise of the riotous battle resounding inside

Even in the midst of that, General Tilly quickly and quickly began to rally his soldiers.

Codes of conduct given in advance in preparation for enemy attacks and subsequent confusion.

It was starting to take effect, although the fog delayed it quite a bit.

“General!”

“Yes, how many soldiers have gathered?”

“First of all, about 3000 people gathered with 1000 wizards as the main axis.”

“The rest of the soldiers are blocking the enemy from their respective positions. I think we need more time to get them together.”

“done. That’s enough. Assembled soldiers, follow me. I will wipe out all the enemies who enter the camp.”

“I see, General!”

The soldiers, following Tilly’s order, began to move as a group in earnest.

Although there were not that many of them, the combat power of those led by a large number of magicians basically surpassed that of ordinary humans.

It’s simply the fancy magic they use.

It wasn’t because of magic that spewed flames, threw thunderbolts, or turned the ground upside down.

All of the wizards belonging to the Imperial Army here are 4th or higher level wizards who have completed the beginner course and reached the intermediate level.

They were basically masters of the three basic magics that anyone who was familiar with magic to some extent would learn.

The three types of magic that all wizards are basically taught because they are closely related to the operation of magical power.

A barrier that uses magic to create a wall that blocks attacks.

Strengthen the body by enclosing mana around the muscles and bones to strengthen the body’s ability to produce superhuman strength.

And.. Condensation, a magic that turns a weapon such as a sword or staff with magic power and then rotates it to follow it, turning even a dull knife into a sword that cuts everything.

These three basic magics allowed mages who deal with magical powers to gain an overwhelming advantage over ordinary soldiers,

Because of this, a single intermediate level wizard was able to demonstrate the power to kill dozens of hundreds of enemies single-handedly with just this basic power, without using special magic.

It was for this reason that even the best warriors in this world were basically classified as wizards.

Whether you call yourself a warrior or a wizard, the beginning is virtually the same anyway.

and at this moment.

The emperor’s army, which consisted of nearly 1,000 such magicians, began an unstoppable march toward the heretical forces in front of them.

“Activate Power Condensation! Cut down all the heretics who go against the will of God!”

“Death to heretics!”

“For the Lord! For the great saintess!”

Following General Tilly’s command like a tiger’s roar, they begin to move forward without hesitation.

As they marched toward the place where they could hear such a loud battle cry, they began to see flags other than the Bohemia army that they had expected.

“Isn’t that the Palatinate army?”

“I think so, General!”

“Another group of foolish heretics has come here! let’s go! After wiping out all of them, I will deal with the heretics in Bohemia!”

“Your general! All troops advance! Kill the dogs of the Palatinate!”

So, following General Tilly’s order, the soldiers rush towards the prey that began to appear in front of them.

Their numbers were less than half that of the Palatinate, but at this moment none of them doubted the victory of the battle.

Although the strength of the Palatinate army was 7000, the proportion of magicians among them was less than 300, and even that level was not that high.

In addition, the person directly leading them at this moment was General Tilly.

A 9th grade archmage with the power to wipe out thousands of soldiers singlehandedly.

With him at the forefront, the army started a bloody battle with the Palatinate army with terrifying momentum.

*

General Tilly and his elite troops appeared in front of the Palatinate army led by Anhalt.

Although the bloody battle between the Bohemia and Imperial forces was still going on everywhere in the thick fog. At this moment, for Anhalt, the battle situation around him was not coming in at all.

“Keuouk!”

“Aagh!”

General Tilly, who is ruthlessly slashing the Palat army with an expression full of anger.

Every time he swung his sword, the bodies of five or six Palatinate soldiers were split in two, and the wizards who followed him and entered were also literally crushing the Palatinate army while showing tremendous power.

“damn! attack! Kill him, General Tilly, before the others! There will be a big reward for whoever finishes that guy! I will give you an enormous wealth and position, so defeat him by any means!”

Anhalt shouted in fear as he watched the enemy general rampaging in front of his eyes.

Although he said it out of fright, his remarks were certainly meaningful in their own way.

At this moment, General Tilly, who was in front of their noses, was the commander-in-chief of the imperial army.

If only the author could be killed, it would be possible to lead the war to victory at once, and at the same time, it could be said that it was a greater contribution than anyone else in this war.

In a way, the best prey came from Anhalt’s point of view, which is struggling to build a ball.

however..

Unfortunately, at this moment, Anhalt and Palatinate did not have the ability to digest their prey.

“Be prepared, Tilly! Guts, the master of the Palatinate, will deal with you.

“You bastard! I will avenge Guts’s enemies! This Greenpeace cut Tilly’s neck… aaagh!”

Famous wizards in the Palatinate who confidently attack.

However, their proud spirit was put to shame, and they were run away in vain by Tilly’s hands, and the Palatinate army who saw it began to seriously shrink.

“Come on everyone! Wicked heretics, this body will directly obey the will of God and judge you with justice!”

General Tilly screaming to kill while slicing the wizards who attacked him.

Then, he began to stretch his arm toward the sky, and at the same time, a huge red magic circle began to appear above his head.

“! I… I can’t believe that…”

“Eh… stop it! You can’t let him use magic!”

Anhalt hurriedly shouted at the scene that began to appear before his eyes.

He didn’t know exactly what it was, but Anhalt instinctively sensed that something terrifying was about to happen as he watched the mana fluctuate in front of his eyes.

However… despite Anhalt’s screams mixed with screams, not only the soldiers present here, but even the magicians showed no sign of stepping forward recklessly.

It’s because they realized as they saw the faces of their colleagues who had already died innumerable times before.

That anyone who ventures out here will be the first to die.

At that moment, when the Paltz army was panicking…

A cold smile began to form on General Tilly’s lips after completing the magic.

“Go away! Foolish heretical demons!”

As soon as those words were finished, General Tilly lowered his hand to the front, and at the same time, the magic circle formed above his head became a river of fire that emitted a bright light and began to attack the Palatinate army.

“Quaaagh!!”

“fire! Turn off the lights! Turn the lights on!!

Faltz-kun, who is engulfed in blue flames and starts to burn in an instant.

From the moment it was used, the flame that burned dozens of Palatinate soldiers grew huge in an instant and eventually began to swallow hundreds of Palatinate soldiers there.

“Uhhhhh!”

The soldiers of the Palatinate dying in blue flames in front of their eyes for a brief moment.

Looking at them, Anhalt began to be seized with thick fear.

At this moment, nothing about the soldiers he was leading or about his master, Friedrich, remained in his mind.

The only emotion that dominates him is the fear of death.

Captivated by it, Anhalt unknowingly turned his horse’s head and began to run away in a hurry.

He didn’t care at all about the soldiers who were hit by his horse and the generals dying behind his back.

At this moment, the only thought in his mind was that he had to somehow get away from the blue flame that chased right behind him.

Like that, Anhalt and the few Palatinate troops who followed him were lucky enough to leave the battlefield and start running north.

And… a few days after that, on the day of the Battle of Baeksan, in front of Emperor Sisyp Ferdinand, a letter presumed to have been sent by Anhalt, who was frantically fleeing, arrived.

The letter contains the content that he has served the wrong lord and asks for forgiveness from the emperor.
