Sword of Daybreaker

The Cecil territory was once again attacked by monsters from Gondor Wasteland and successfully annihilated the enemy on the same day – this became the fastest and most widespread news in this cold winter, and the spread of the news was not only the spies, The credit of the trader and mercenary, Gawain himself has a great influence on the acquiescence and even the secret promotion.

In Gawain’s statement, it is “must let the cozy Southern aristocrats and Royal Capital people know the existence of threats.”

In this cold winter, many people are destined to sit down.

Ainz East Frontier, Longwind Fortress.

As the general guardian of the Eastern Region, Duke Silas Loren personally stationed the fortress all the year round. At this moment, he stood on the top terrace of the castle in the center of the fortress, overlooking the distant wall and the wall. The large savanna covered by snow and ice.

This fortress, which was completed ten years ago, is the pride of the Eastern Region Loren Family. It has gone through three generations of hard work. The Eastern Region family has invested huge amounts of money, material resources, manpower, and even the blood of family members. The fortified fortress was erected on the opposite side of the Typhon Empire. It is a barrier and a deterrent to the Winterwolf Castle and its affiliated fort on the border of the Typhon Empire.

The establishment of Longwind Fortress stems from the rapid deterioration of the relationship between Ainz and Typhon.

In the Mist Month Civil War a hundred years ago, the Eastern Region Loren Family was the best-preserved one in the Four Dukes. From the beginning, the family realized that the Typhon Empire, which is always commensurate with the Ainz brother, is a huge threat. So throughout the Mist Month Civil War, the family did not engage its core powers in the chaotic and brutal royal power struggle. The Loren Family’s limited actions during the Civil War were just to keep themselves inside the kingdom. Their status and influence, and most of their energy has been placed on this border in the east – it turned out that Duke Loren’s caution and responsibility guarded the entire kingdom.

At the end of the civil strife, after the domestic situation in Ainz was quickly settled by the establishment of Second Dynasty and the Thunder wrist of the northern Wilde Family, Loren Family began to build a series of defense facilities on the border. Longwind Fortress is the most dedicated of all defense facilities. The one that takes the longest time and the strongest garrison.

It is not so much a military fortress, but rather a “fortress city” with both fortress and city functions. It has all the facilities to maintain the operation of the fortress and ensure self-sufficiency. The Loren Family fighters are the soldiers of the city. It is also a resident of the city, and the purpose of this fortress city is to stand on the border of the land under any circumstances and never fall.

When Ainz fell sharply due to civil strife, Typhon Empire was disorganized because of its growing strength. It was because the barrier established by Loren Family stood on the border of the country that Typhon’s misconduct was always only Can be a bad heart.

In fact, the four Ainz families in Mist Month Civil War can be said to have taken on several distinct historical roles: the Franklin Family in the Western Region has maintained diplomatic and trade relations with the Augari Tribe Kingdom, and has preserved the economy of the kingdom. The lifeblood laid the foundation for the reconstruction of the post-war kingdom; the Wilde Family of the Northern Region used an illegitimate child as a banner, and it thundered the civil strife throughout the country, forcibly stabilized the kingdom before the situation was completely irreparable; Loren Family of the Eastern Region As a barrier, he held the border of Ainz and blocked the unscrupulous enemies outside the country during the civil strife.

Although each of them can be said to be selfish, and they are almost divided during the civil war, but in any case, they still hold the kingdom at the last moment.

In stark contrast, the Southern Region was the Cecil Family, which was originally founded by the four founding Dukes. The Cecil Family, which has always been glorious for six hundred years, did not do anything.

Now that Cecil Family’s Old Ancestor is alive, no one dares to directly accuse the Cecil Family of honor. It can only be said that their home is unfortunate. At the most critical point in time, they have encountered one of the worst heirs. The ancestor’s foundation is almost destroyed. once.

Historians have always had a lot of enthusiasm in this regard, they always talk about what factors are causing the four families to behave quite differently during Mist Month Civil War, but in Duke Loren’s view, all There is no point in discussing the history. He thinks that the main reason for the situation in that year is that Gawain Cecil died too early. Duke Cecil, who died at the age of 35, left the world too early. Therefore, it was not able to pass his glory and glory to the sons in time, so the inheritance of the Cecil Family was a big problem in the generation of Grumman Cecil.

Duke Cecil This resurrection may be to educate the later generation.

Silas Loren stood on the terrace and quietly thought about these issues concerning the history of the kingdom and the inheritance of glory. Many people think that this Duke with Legendary strength is just a Wufu, but he thinks that those are just the ignorance of the ignorant. He never lacks deep thinking, but his talent on the battlefield is far higher than his thinking, so people only noticed his power.

A familiar atmosphere approached, Silas Loren retracted his gaze from the distance, and he turned and saw a young man with short brown hair and armor walking on the terrace, this one-piece, brave warrior out of the ordinary young Knight Slightly bent in front of him: “father, intelligence is coming.”

“Knight Knight!” Silas Loren said sternly, “Belke, you are reporting the military!”

“Yes!” The young people quickly got up and took a very standard Knight ceremony, “General, the latest information.”

Silas nodded: “Say.”

“It has been proven that Typhon Winterwolf Castle defenders did fight a few days ago, but not with us, but with an unknown ‘monster’. Winterwolf Castle defenders won, the fortress was not broken, but The outer wall suffered moderate damage, and the casualties of the defenders were unknown, but it should not be rare.”

Silas slightly nodded, but indifferent expression, young Berk – Sils Loren’s eldest son sees, can’t help starting talking: “father, this is a good opportunity for us to weaken the enemy!”

Silas expressionless looks at Berk’s eyes: “Do you really think so?”

“The exhaustion of the enemy is our advantage,” Belk said against Father’s gaze and said with a head. “Their city walls have been weakened, and it is difficult to repair the city wall in the winter. The short-term Winterwolf Castle defenses are weak. Second, they have been attacked by monsters. In a short period of time, panic will weaken their combat effectiveness. Finally, their soldiers are also damaged, so this is a good time for us to attack.”

“idiot.”

Berk stood straight and didn’t back down.

“Do you know that Winterwolf Castle is not a separate fortress, but one of a series of fortresses? You know it’s winter now, and we’re separated from Winterwolf Castle by a large piece of world of ice and snow? You know Typhon is here. How many reserve soldiers are set in their bastions, can you replace Legion with frustration at any time?

“This damage does not hurt the Typhon at all. Instead, it will allow them to at least double the defense of Winterwolf Castle and its surroundings in a short period of time. A large number of garrisons will move from the rear of the fort to the front line to Make up for the lack of defense caused by the break of the city wall; we have to attack the Winterwolf Castle across the world of ice and snow, and the snow will make our troops weaken a lot. The exhaustion of the enemy is our advantage? Wait for you to go to the foot of Winterwolf Castle. The exhaustion is you! And the most important point – the offense is the all-out war, but I said that I want to fight Typhon now?”

Belk bowed his head, but couldn’t help but say: “The war between us and Typhon… is in front of us.”

Silas looked at his too young son. He could feel the courage in his chest and the thirst for victory and glory. This is the quality he tried to instill in the other side, but he still has to shake his head at the moment: “Don’t expect this war. Don’t expect anything at all.”

“father?”

“Warriors really should be eager for victory on the battlefield, but not for the war itself, especially the war with Typhon,” Silas Loren said slowly and whispered. “And have you heard anything else?”

“Another message?” Belk frowned, apparently not knowing what his father was referring to. “What is it?”

“A group of businessmen coming from the southwest, they entered the city with an alchemy potion,” Duke Silas said without hesitation. “They said that the new Cecil territory in the southwest was also attacked by monsters. It’s a muted creature from Gondor Wasteland – your intelligence is coming too slowly, even the news of Cecil territory has followed the merchants here, but you only understand the Winterwolf Castle!”

Berk is somewhat ashamed, although he knows that this is not his incompetence – the trader is walking in a safe and stable country, and he is going to explore the situation of the tightly sealed enemy bastions outside the border, the difficulty and efficiency of the two are completely Different, but even so, it is true that he failed to do things best.

So he silently accepted Father’s criticism and made a disturbing feeling from the news that Father mentioned: “Those monsters… are the monsters that Duke Gawain Cecil mentioned before when he warned the nobles at Royal Capital. ?”

“Yes,” Silas Loren nodded. “At first, when he warned, not many people believed that even I didn’t pay much attention to it, but now it seems… I’m afraid I made a mistake.”

Belk looked at his father in surprise, and he rarely saw that Father had admitted the mistake.

“Those monsters are real, and they are threatening the human Feudal Territory,” Silas ignored his son’s gaze, but continued as if he said to himself, “They will attack Typhon and attack us, in those wasteland. In the eyes of the monster, there is no such thing as Typhon and Ainz, and this sudden threat… I am afraid it will change the whole situation.”
