---

There was bitterness lingering in heart.

‘My lord. No, Count Lancephil. I didn’t want to see you like this.’

Serifa, who is in charge of directing and controlling the Druids, smiled bitterly.

‘If it wasn’t for the Druid’s Oath, I’d like to stay with you sir Count.’

The Druid’s Oath was a problem.

That pledge with Clay forced Serifa and many other Druids to betray Roan.

Sad eyes.

The end of his gaze turned to Roan, who was running from afar.

A black-red flame that flows through the whole body and on horseback.

‘We already know about your fearsome fire-mana.’

A fire-mana, powerful enough to burn the earth

There was no way Clay would not know about it and not plan a contingency plan.

“Get ready, everybody.”

At Sephira’s command, the surrounding Druids once again recited the bizarre spell.

At that moment, the huge trees that was moving heavily stopped.

Kukukukukukukukuku.

At the same time, the ground shook loudly and a large bridge dug into the ground.

It’s as if the roots are falling.

In the meantime, Roan came to the brink of a great tree.

At that very moment.

Chuaaaaaaaaaaaaack!

Huge streams of water sprouted from the center of the giant trees.

It was reminiscent of a heavy rain.

A stream of water was shooting beyond the eye can see.

“Keugh!”

“Wha, what!”

Not only Lancephil Fief Army but also the Rinse Liberation Army were greatly bewildered by the sudden water flow.

They quickly backed off from the water.

Ordinary soldiers felt pain just by being caught in the water.

“Get back! Get back!”

Pierce looked at Roan, giving orders quickly.

Roan was still spewing out a dark red fire.

“Heung! That’s right! Did you think you could turn off the Lord’s fire-mana with a stream of water?”

A powerful voice.

Roan’s fire wasn’t just a fire.

It was the source of fire that condensed the fire-mana even in a mixture of energy.

It was not enough to put it out with only a stream.

At least that’s what Pierce thought.

However.

Psss.

The flames of Roan, which had been raging, died down gradually.

It wasn’t completely turned off, but it was definitely less powerful than before.

Roan had a bitter laugh.

‘To think they would use this kind of method.’

He looked at the giant trees that was spouting water.

They weren’t just spouting water.

The giant trees absorbed fire-mana from the surrounding mana, then shot its energy down to the surface, and then created a huge stream of water using water-mana, which was pushed out the other end.

Thanks to the huge tree, the nearby Fief’s area was becoming increasingly dryer and water-mana becoming richer.

‘The Flamdor fire-mana in the body can still be used, but……’

There was no way to restore the used fire-mana if it was used up like that..

Of course, there was a second best option.

‘Using the water-mana.’

Roan was also able to use water-mana thanks to the tears of his elemental king.

However.

‘It’s been hard to deal with water-mana since the last Overflow with Flamdor taking over my body.’

Though still more powerful than ordinary soldiers and knights, but compared to fire-mana the gap was as wide as the difference between the level of an adult and a child.

“Phew.”

Roan breathed out a long breath.

For now he couldn’t use fire-mana like this anyway.

By exhausting Flamdor fire-mana in his body, his body could be crushed by forcing fire-mana to rise.

Pusut.

The black-red flames that had been circling all over the place disappeared.

At the same time, a blue water-mana trickled out through the Travias’ Spear.

Thanks to the pouring water, the water-mana soon took the form of water.

Chuaaack!

The blue water wrapped around Roan.

But it was still less powerful than fire-mana.

“As expected.”

Clay smiled brightly as he watched the situation from the moving tower.

Over the past few days, or months, or years, many meticulous calculations have filled his mind.

For him, Roan Lancephil was a must-win enemy and an obstacle that must be surpassed.

The fire-mana elimination operation through the Druids was sure-fire plan that could not be failed.

“Roan Lancephil.”

There was a icy-cold streak around Clay’s eyes.

“Be killed by the rain I made.”

A voice of conviction rolled down the moving tower.

The situation was certainly not good.

Kugung!

Giant trees spread their roots and branches and attacked Roan.

“Kuck!”

Roan fought back, wielding Travias’ Spear.

But the big tree wasn’t the only thing he had to care about.

“Kello!”(켈로)

The Druids went between the water stream and recited their chants.

Each time, a hard stem sprang up, dragging Roan’s ankle or attacked his body directly.

“Where!”

Roan swung with a thundering cry.

Sekuk!

The snake-like stems were cut off nicely with a refreshing sound.

At that moment.

Pavat!

Serifa and the Druids emerged through the stream.

“Count Lancephil. Long time no see.”

“It’s been a long time. Serifa.”

A brief greeting came and went.

The eyes with complicated emotions were connected.

The Serifa mumbled under his lips and lowered his head slightly.

“I’m sorry.”

Roan smiled vaguely and shook his head.

“You don’t have to apologize. We’re all faithful to respective ones.”

“Thank you for your understanding.”

Serifa bowed his head once again and quickly kicked the ground.

Pavat!

Light flashed around his body.

At the same time, a large eagle appeared and shadowed over the sturdy body of Serifa.

Screech!

The eagle flew at Roan’s head with a sharp intent.

It was a summoning followed by transformation art.

Pavat!

Other Druids also rushed at Roan.

The light flashed and changed their appearance to predators such as lions, tigers, and leopards like beasts.

They looked like an ordinary beast on the outside, however they were far beyond an average knight.

Druid’s transformation was much more powerful than one thought.

Roar!

Screech!

A series of malefic calls came out.

Roan quickly pulled the reins.

However, the military horse, which had been brave enough to move so far, hardened like a stone statue and refused to move.

A moment of panic came from the predator in front, filling it with fear.

“Kuck!”

Roan was forced to gear up and kicked into the air.

At the same time, he swung the Travias’ Spear.

The stream of water moved from the spear seemed to dance through a strong stream.

Pavat! Puk! Sshak!

The lion and the tiger, who were rushing in, were cut in long margin by the spear and bounced back.

‘Shallow!’

A shallow cut on the neck and chest

Certainly, it was not easy to control water-mana.

In addition.

Surek.

Their wounds healed surprisingly quickly.

One of the abilities of Druid’s transformation art came with a powerful healing ability.

Of course, they could not recover their wounds forever.

At best, two or three times was the limit, and deep wounds made it impossible to heal perfectly.

But that was enough to bother Roan.

The Druids, who were bounced off, turned back into beasts and attacked Roan again.

“Kuck!”

Roan clenched his teeth and waved his spear around.

In the great stream of water, not so easy battle ensued.

“Damn it! Legionnaire field rally! We’re going into the stream!”

Pierce shouted while looking at the struggling Roan.

“Yes Sir!”

Legionnaire from Asta Troop quickly lined up.

“All right! Then Char…”

Pierce, who was about to charge in violently, clenched his teeth and stopped.

“Damn it. When did…”

A confused look and expression.

The central force of the Liberation Army appeared before them.

Moreover, the right-wing force, who had backed down for a while, have also begun to put pressure upon Asta Troop again.

Pierce’s gaze naturally led to the moving tower.

At the top of the moving tower, a small flag fluttered without a break.

“Huhu. Did you think I’d just watch you guys jump in?”

Clay snorted and shook his head.

The battlefields was perfectly divided into the battle zones of Roan and Druid and the battle zones of ordinary soldiers.

Everything was going according to Clay’s will.

“We were fooled.”

Ian Phillips, who was looking into the situation at the main force of Lancephil, bit his lower lip.

‘I thought left-wing and right-wing are the baits and the goal being the central…’

Now it turns out that the left and right wing was the main force, and the main body of the central government was the same as the garrison to protect the Druids.

Moreover, the defensive troops were setting up walls to keep central Lancephil force away from Roan.

“Main force charge, save the Lord!”

Ian quickly gave orders to the main force, who had been on standby.

Originally, it was the Troop, which was reserved to deal with the raging enemy’s central force.

“Yes Sir!”

With the affirmative reply, the main forces marched belatedly toward the battlefield.

An imposing figure

But Ian’s face was not good.

‘If something goes wrong for the Lord, it’s all over.’

Even if you win a battle, you lose a war.

No matter what happened, Roan had to be safe.

‘Just hang in there, please.’

Ian prayed and prayed desperately.

In the meantime, Roan was having a harder fight than he anticipated.

Quang!

“Kuck!”

Roan gritted his teeth at the attacks of the branches from the giant tree.

There was a flurry of water pouring overhead, huge boulders soaring from the ground, and a series of frantic attacks.

‘If only there was fire-mana……’

He would have burned down a giant tree in a single swoop.

Then again, the attack by the Druids followed with the giant tree.

Kwokwang! Kwaguwaang! Pububuk!

Roan moved his feet in a dizzy way at the same time, pulling up water-mana to shake off the stream of water.

The Druids’ sharp attack bounced off or dodged safely, but the root attack of the giant tree that shot up from behind his back was not stopped.

Puahahahahuk!

A dull roar

Roan gritted his teeth from the tremendous shock.

A shock beyond human capacity.

“Kuech.”

There was blood dripping from his lips.

Still, he did not kneel or fall.

No, he didn’t dare touch the ground with a spearhead.

He still stood proudly on both legs and looked at the Druids and the big tree.

Serifa breathed out a short sigh at the sight.

“Phew.”

He returned to his original form and stood facing Roan.

“Count Lancephil.”

Roan smiled a vague smile at the low call.

“What do you want? Are tired already?”

He was still fierce.

Roan straightened his position while going over his mouth with the back of his hand.

Sefrifah hesitated for a moment at the sight, then said in a small voice.

“Why don’t you stop here? If you surrender, I and my colleagues will take responsibility for your life.”

Roan smiled a bit, and came back with a remark.

“What do you do with Druid’s Oath then?”

“Tha, That’s….”

Serifa stammered a little, and he was also perplexed.

Roan took a deep breath.

“There’s nothing to be afraid of. I’m not going to surrender in the first place.”

Crack.

He gave strength to the grip of the spear.

“Best of all…”

The smile on the corners of my mouth deepened.

“I’ve finally come back to my senses.”

A confident expression and voice.

“Yes? What does that…?”

Serifa asked back with a look of surprise.

Roan held the Travias’ Spear forward and took the parade position with the spear.

At that moment.

Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaht!

A great stream of water sprang up along the spear.

“Uhm.”

Serifa and other Druids went into silence with a stiff look.

Now Roan looked exactly as if he used fire-mana.

One could feel a great deal of energy from the water, which rose separately from the spears.

“I’ll show you why I’m called a Wargod, not a Crimson Wargod.”

The smile on the lips deepened.

Ta-at!

Roan kicked lightly on the ground and ran toward the Druids.

Travias’ Spear cut through the stream and cut the space.

“Get out of the way!”

“Don’t block him!”

Serifa and other Druids screamed at each other and jumped away in all directions.

A situation in which one’s eyes could be blank with disbelief

‘Now.’

Roan gritted his teeth.

He forced the swing of the spear to change trajectory.

Supot!

The spear trembled and soon flew towards the big tree.

“Oh no!”

Serifa bursted out bewildered belatedly.

Roan was aiming for a giant tree, not for the Druids.

He was planning to cut down the giant tree and reduce the flow of water.

‘It was a feint!’

Serifa shook his head, chasing Roan’s back.

The perfect handling of water-mana was actually a lie.

‘This is my last shot!’

Roan took a deep breath.

It was still very difficult to deal with water-mana for him.

The stream that rose along the spear was made by pulling up all of the remaining mana and forcing it upon the surrounding water stream.

Roan stared at the big tree in front of him.

‘I shall cut you down.’

At the same moment his spear divided the space.

Travias’ Spear quickly lengthened and thickened.

Sukuk!

With a heavy sound, a huge size of a spear cut down the giant tree.

Cuo Oo Oo Oo!

The giant tree twisted its body and blew its whistle.

“Ugh!”

Roan again gave strength to his wrist, forcing it to bear the pain that seemed to burst out of his forearm.

Finally.

Puk!

With a dull sound, spear beat the trunk of the giant tree.

Kuo!

The giant tree tilted little by little with a thundering cry and soon fell on its side.

Kugugukugung!

Finally, the huge tree fell with a roar.

Sssch.

The stream, which had been pouring so much that it was hard to tell where the front of the water has now shrunk a bit.

“Hmm.”

In addition, the exhausted fire-mana gradually increased.

‘Nice!’

A hazy smile hung over Roan’s mouth.

A look of contentment shows at the way things were done.

At that moment.

“That’s great. You cut down a giant tree even in that situation.”

A familiar voice pierced his ear.

Roan frowned and looked where the voice had come from.

There was a familiar but unwanted face.

A man with small eyes that are too thin to see an eye.

It was Clay.

“Clay.”

“It’s been awhile.”

At Roan’s words, Clay greeted him as if he had met a close friend.

Clay drew a strange figure, holding his hands together.

“It’s been so long that I have a lot to talk about, but I don’t think it’s time to do that.”

He quickly recited a spell, feeling the fire-mana getting stronger little by little.

At that moment.

Kugugugugugugugugung!

The huge tree that had fallen with great tremors has risen again.

It was even bigger than before.

Kugung!

Newly grown roots have penetrated the surface of the earth and settled down.

“Hm.”

Roan swallowed the saliva on what had happened in an instant.

Clay was at least two or three stages better than the other Druids.

Chuaaaaack

The stream that had been tapered for a while had thickened again.

No, it’s stronger than it was before.

In addition, fire-mana, which had been gradually rising in power, quickly disappeared.

Tudududududduk!

Roan gritted his teeth, feeling the torrent of water pouring all over his body.

Manna in his body has already revealed it’s bottom.

Moreover, there was no more fire-mana on his surrounding.

“Roan Lancephil.”

Clay had a strange smile with his arms crossed.

“There are many stories I wanted to tell you…”

His eyebrows danced with a big umph.

“I’ll tell you the story, in front of your grave.”

At the end of the remark, once again the giant trees swung it’s branches at Roan.

At the same time, the other Druids also kicked the ground with a gruesome look.

Roan took a deep breath, looking at the attacks coming toward him.

It was a desperate situation, but he didn’t shake his head.

He didn’t even give out a sigh.

On the contrary, he lifted his head.

There was a flash of light.

Mana and his physical strength may have fallen, but his momentum were as high as the sky.

‘I do not give up.’

He was confident in the face of death.

At that moment.

A bright, pointed voice pierced his ear.

No, it rang in his head.

A voice that he missed very much

“Kinness?”

Roan unconsciously muttered in a low voice.

Within that moment

Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!

A whirlpool ran before his eyes.

At the same time, a girl with red hair and shiny skin appeared through the water stream.

It was Kinness.

Qua-a-a-a-a-a-a-at!

“Ke-ugh!”

“Kuck!”

The Druids, who were rushing in with a roar, were thrown out in all directions.

“Huh?”

Clay, who was expecting Roan’s end, frowned upon the sudden situation.

‘Who’s that girl?’

Clay didn’t know the identity of Kinness.

Kinness looked at Roan with her hands on her waist.

Roan smiled brightly and shook his head.

“I missed you.”

Kinness’s eyes trembled at the words.

She soon burst into a short snort.

It was something out of tune with voice and attitude.

She turned her head to look at Clay and the Druids, while apparently looking shy.

Her eyebrows rose sharply.

She must be angry to see the guys that bothered Roan.

“Kinness. Are you going to scold them for me?”

When Roan asked with a playful look, Kinness shook her head.

Roan listened to her words and looked at Travias’ Spear.

“I’d love to, but my mana ran out.”

Kinness shook her head with a playful look.

She stretched her arms wide.

An obscure remark.

But Roan didn’t bother to ask.

For he believed in Kinness.

Right then.

Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!

A red glow came out of Kinness’s body.

The light gradually stretched out to the strong stream.

Roan just stood still and looked at the figure.

And.

Pa-at!

Once again, red light burst out from the entire stream that had been pouring out.

It’s like the whole world is turning red.

“Ah…….”

Roan closed his eyes unknowingly.

He felt strong fire-mana on his whole body.

The empty Mana quickly filled with fire-mana.

He could hear Kinness’s voice in his head.

Roan nodded slowly.

‘Yes, but it’s okay. I don’t care if you’re a water spirit or not.’

The corners of his mouth crept up.

‘You’re just…’

The voices of the two were mixed together.

‘Kinness.’

Roan and Kinness smiled at the same time as if they had promised.

At the same time, Roan opened his closed eyes.

“Ah…….”

Once again, a sigh of elation came out.

The world opened up before his eyes

There was no more torrents of water pouring.

Instead, it was raining black and red fire, as if it would burn the whole world.

Kinness looked at Roan.

Her face was still full of mischief.

Roan nodded slowly at the words.

His eyes turned to the other side.

At the end of the sight was Clay.

“Thi, this is ridiculous…”

Clay was dumbfounded by the shower of fire above his head.

An expression of incredulity.

Roan hit the ground lightly.

Pa-at!

The newly stronger fire became blurry and quickly reached the front of Clay.

“Hup!”

Clay tried to back away little delayed, while swallowing the wind.

But Roan’s left hand was a little faster.

Crack

“Keugh!”

Clay’s eyes went backwards from the breathtaking pain.

Roan’s left hand grabbed Clay’s neck.

“Ho, How could this happen…”

Clay shook his head in disbelief.

Roan looked him in the eye.

“You must be curious about a lot of things.”

At those words, Clay nodded.

Roan smiled vaguely and carried on his words.

“About those curious stories…”

A little effort was put into his grasp.

“I’ll tell them in front of your grave.”
