Hakai no Miko

Eladia was driven by frustration and impatience by the mundane state of war.

In the first place, the Bow Cavalry itself is the first of its kind in the western region of the Serdeas continent. Everyone didn't know how to coach this bow cavalry and how to operate it in action.

That is no exception to Ethereal Horse, the proponent of the Bow Cavalry.

The Ethereal Horse read the book and knew how to fight Partien shots and Mongolian Empire cavalry. But that was only to the extent of "pretending to run away, attacking the enemy he was chasing with arrows and causing great damage".

Assuming he was also from a horseback riding nation, he probably got some advice.

But in the western part of the continent, where there were originally no horses, and the plains were Zoan's sphere of power, there were no horseback riding nations. If you look through Joash, you may have been in the south or around the centre of the continent, where the horses originated, but five years was too short for that.

In the end, it was the reality that, together with Eladia, the head of the executive force, was operating the force by hand.

Nor was the Bow Cavalry ever highly skilled, as Hyuakis had nursed.

Everyone, including Eladia, is still shooting arrows and staring at horses. For this reason, he runs forward those dedicated to manipulating horses without firing arrows, and manages to move them as troops.

Still, I put a bow cavalry into this battle to get rid of enemy archers, for one thing.

It is the unspoken Zoans who dominate the Ethereal Horses.

Zoan can't wear heavy armor, shields, or other protective equipment because of his ethnicity. If an arrow descends on them like that, there will be enormous damage. Even a few wins will be lost if that happens before you run into the enemy's main force, the heavy-duty spear infantry.

I had to kick the enemy archers in any way to keep them from doing so.

But to hit enemy archers head-on, these elf archers are inferior in number again.

So he put in a bow cavalry in order to poke and upset his enemies, knowing they were less skilled.

Because of the surprise magnitude of Marcronis and Setius, former soldiers of the Holmea National Army, who saw the bow cavalry for the first time, Eladia was treading on that she could expect enough.

But as far as Eladia can tell, the enemy seemed less upset than expected.

The Holmeer National Army has not inadvertently moved even against the bow cavalry it sees for the first time, creating no major disturbance of the formation as expected.

Eladia also had to painfully regret that her reading was wrong.

But this Eladia analysis is a mistake.

The truth is that the impact of the bow cavalry was too great for the commanders of each unit, including General Lakius, who led the First Army, to move without knowing how to deal with it.

However, whatever the history, the First Army of the Holmeer Nation went into arrow reward with the Elf Bow and Arrow (Cucumber) soldiers without serious damage.

When this happens, the difference in the number of soldiers still says something.

The archers of the Holmeer Country, who have thus also faded in the impact of their bow cavalry, have begun to shoot arrows as trained. The Elf Archers are now skilled, but it is visible that they are pushed in numbers, not far away.

Even now, can't we confuse our enemies by further attacks by bow cavalry?

Eladia thought so, looking at the state of war.

However, just shooting an arrow while moving in front of the enemy is as ineffective as ever. As much as it is better to attack from the enemy side than that, I understand it as Eladia, a novice in combat.

But attacking the side of the First Army means exposing the flank before the Third Army and Fourth Army. The problem then is the tank units that look like third and fourth armies. Speaking only of speed, a chariot that would not take a hike on horseback, no matter how handsome the cavalry was, it did not necessarily mean that the exposed flank could not be swept away.

For this reason, attacks on the sides of the First Army have been hesitant.

But I will not try to move with both the Third Army and the Fourth Army protecting the side of the Second Army.

With some knowledge of the danger, Eladia was beginning to wonder if we should move on to a flanking attack on the First Army.

It is its arrow tip.

The Third Army and the Fourth Army, which were defending the main side of the Second Army's heavily armed infantry, made a noise and moved.

But it also only slightly moved forward. Soon both armies were put on standby.

It was something Eladia could not possibly have known, but it was at the behest of Huakis, Deputy Commander of the "Black Wall" Regiment.

Only fifty steps forward in this vast battlefield.

Behavior that seemed pointless together, but that was enough for Eladia.

The Third Army and the Fourth Army, which they thought would not move, moved forward slightly. Only then did Eladia decide it was too dangerous to turn to the side of the First Army.

Together it was Eladia and Huakis, who were not blessed with generals talent, but a development in which the difference in their experience points was clearly demonstrated.

One elf woman falls on an arrow again before Eladia's eyes exploring a new hand that she doesn't know she can hit.

Eladia chewed her lips hard on the figure.

Together he is a compatriot who has endured shame and lived by rinsing mud. Even if there is no blood connection, they are sisters united by stronger bonds than that. There's no way they can feel anything hurting and falling.

But it wasn't easy to pull back here.

We must strike the enemy archers with our own hands at all costs.

But even while Eladia thinks about it, there are once again casualties coming out of the Archer soldiers.

Eladia, who was looking at the sight with the thought of a disconnect, realized that there was.

The arrows that are sacrificing to their sisters are distinctive.

The majority of arrows that fall like rain from the First Army are not very different from those used by very ordinary humans.

But it contains heterogeneous arrows that target the sisters precisely.

It was an arrow of immense power.

What the First Army of the State of Holmea and the Elf Archer soldiers are paying for the arrows is the distance they cannot reach their opponents without firing arrows into the great mountains. For this reason, even if the enemy is hit, the power of the arrow is diminished, and if the hit is not so bad, it is a minor injury.

But the arrow flies with a trajectory close to direct fire. For this reason, it is not comparable to its power or other arrows. When hit by the shield that the volunteer had, it sounded awesome and shocked until it was halfway through the shaft. If this were a direct hit, it would even penetrate your body.

Not seen from Eladia, but on the tip of that arrow, which is longer than anything else, is a more penetrating iron, rather than a common bronze one in this day and age.

But even if you don't know it, it's clear in the distance that the arrow is something very vicious.

You have a special archer?!

We must identify that enemy as soon as possible and, if possible, eliminate it.

Eladia, who so decides, speaks to the woman with the rank of deputy captain who follows her directly behind her.

"I will temporarily keep command! Keep attacking!

"Ha! - Sister Ha?!"

"I deal with troublesome customers! - Somebody, follow me!

Eladia, who shouted so, took only two horsemen away from the bow cavalry.

And once you're through a place where arrow rewards are rolling hard, you slowly run the horse and see the enemy army.

Eladia's eyes, often staring at the enemy army, opened.

I found it!

In the deep woods, the eyes of an elf hunting to find a prey to whisk himself in the bushes of lush branches and shrubs captured the strange-looking men hissing within the enemy army.

Strong men wearing animal fur from their heads and pulling bows much longer than themselves. Eladia did not know its name, but it was the hunters of the Gau tribe, the strongest bowman in the West Side.

"You two need my backup!

The aim is a big man in bear fur among the Gau hunters. It's called that skill, it's called the reaction of the hunters around you, and I'm pretty sure that guy thinks it's the hunters' heads.

As long as his head is finished, he will be a crowd of the UAE, whether it be troops or not.

That's the word Soma used to say.

To put it into practice, Eladia ran the horse by setting a goal only for the furry man of the bear.

The enemy is blinded by the Elf Bow Cavalry, and the Eladias, approaching with just three horsemen, are invisible. As she led the arrow to Elfinbow, Eladia squeezed the strings tight.

Some hunters who deal with harsh nature and smart beasts are sensitive to the dangers that occasionally descend on themselves, he said. The Gaw hunter's man, too, I guess.

As soon as Eladia's arrow entered the distance it reached, a man suddenly looked back, who had not even shown the bare gesture he had noticed until then. All that, or as if rotating with a long bow on its axis, it instantly points an arrow that leads to Eladia. It was an incredible early start to say it was a big bow that was difficult to handle.

Not good!

At that moment, Eladia removes her right foot from the jaw. And threw his own body from the horse to the left.

That sort of judgment saved Eladia's life.

At the next moment, the hunter's arrow flied over Eladia's head with a blur.

Eladia is frightened when longer and heavier arrows than we use jump through the wind making loud noises. If it were a moment late, it would be the momentum of an arrow that might have been taken by the neck instead of being shot through the forehead.

But that didn't leave Eladia's crisis.

To Eladia, who threw her body out to dodge the arrow, now the ground flowing behind her at high speed is approaching to cut off her life.

This still made me climb trees better than anyone else when I was a kid!

Yes, scolding herself, Eladia pinched her horse body tightly with both legs, supporting her body as she tried to fall.

And whether you tried to save such Eladia or simply balance, the horse also leans his body backwards to help Eladia.

While in an attitude as if it had grown from the side of a horse, Eladia nevertheless held an arrow to Elfinbow, who did not let go, and squeezed it, releasing it between the brows of the Gaw hunters.

Eladia's unleashed arrows slip through the Holmea soldiers and fly to be sucked into the hunters of the Gau tribe, who have just unleashed an arrow here.

However, an arrow released in an impossible position is slightly off target. It was the left ear of the Gaw hunter that the arrow hit. The Gaw hunters, whose ears were nearly half ripped off by arrows, nodded too much of the pain, hiding in the hedges and invisible.

Shortly after confirming it, Eladia pulls up her body with all her strength as she reaches out her right hand and grabs the protrusion of the saddle. When she put her body back on the saddle, she finally restored the body of the horse, which was also tilted.

It was dangerous.

As she leaves the safety zone with her back to the First Army, Eladia puts her hand on her chest, which her heart strikes like an early bell.

I still can't stop my white teeth from rattling. It was only a miracle that immature equestrianism could do such a thing. As a matter of fact, I'm already better at falling from my head and being told that I'm even dreaming of dying.

"Oh, God of the wind. Thank you for your blessing."

I accidentally leak a word of gratitude to God that I have never uttered in years. Then the horse he was riding shook his head in a grumpy manner. When he rode out and peered into the horse's face, he said his eyes were like, "Thanks to me."

"I'm sorry. But thanks. Thank you."

When I tried to press my chest against the horse's neck muscle and deposited my body, the horse was also in a colic and mood with something cash.

As such, Eladia waves on the back of the horse, reversing the earlier hand of the arrow.

I don't think I've been given the deep hand to keep fighting.

But if you know with your own hands when an enemy arrow arrives, no matter how daring you are, you will be shredded from dealing with the enemy arrow. Then you shouldn't be able to concentrate on shooting like before.

Not until it completely seals off that special archer's movements, but it would have been some obstruction.

Eladia, who has now broken off that she can only be satisfied with it, waves her arms wide from the horse to the sky trying to convey the presence of that archer backwards anyway.

Then one Harpuan's daughter came down to the side of the horse.

She is a Harpuan commander exclusively followed by Ethereal Horse to Eladia in order to quickly communicate with those appointed as generals.

I'd like you to give me a message to Soma from the main unit.

Eladia briefly told Harpuran's daughter about the matter.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"It's a message from Lady Eladia. They say some enemy archers use powerful bows. Commander, hunt carefully."

Taking advantage of its wings, the Ethereal Horse becomes a difficult face with the message of Harpuran, who instantly returned from the front line to the main formation.

As a matter of fact, the Ethereal Horses were also thinking of attacking the commanders of enemy forces directly by the Harpurans in order to make effective use of a small number of Harpurans.

But if an archer using such a powerful bow had been placed around an enemy commander, it would have been harder too. If you do poorly, Harpuran may be shot down.

At present, there are only less than twenty Harpurans at the Ethereal Horse.

Only two shots are fired down, which reduces that battle power by 10%. If they do, they may also interfere with reconnaissance and transmission networks complacent that they are overwhelming their enemies. At this stage, the Harpurans cannot be allowed to cross dangerous bridges.

However, the reading of the Ethereal Horse at this time was slightly off the mark.

All the Gau archers hired by the Holmeer Nation were assigned to the First Army.

Instead, however, soldiers with crossbows (Ishiyumi) were placed next to more than the regimental commander as a measure of harpuran.

This was Alexius' arrangement.

Knowing that the assault on General Darius' troops by Harpuran during the Bornis showdown triggered the collapse of the Legion, Alexius was forced to take his state-of-the-art gear, a crossbow, out of the treasury in this era.

The depth of caution of the Ethereal Horse, although it was the reading that had been taken off, would have averted the crisis placed by Alexius.

But the Ethereal Horse was beginning to rush.

Looking at the two armies that continue to reward the arrows, the Elf Archer Corps is now overwhelming the archers of the Holmeer Nation in skill.

But it is the war that fills the difference between the advantages and disadvantages with numbers.

Gradually, but inferior in number, elf bow and arrow soldiers could be seen starting to be pushed.

I want you to retreat now.

But then the next thing relative to the enemy archers are the Zoans, who have no defense whatsoever. Even with their feet, two or three shots will be baptized by arrows by the time they are brought into the White Soldier War. That could result in more casualties than elf archers. If you collide with the main enemy force, the Heavy Spear Infantry Regiment, in such a state, the result is more obvious than seeing fire.

I can't help but remember the impatience of being flashed with fire, even though I think I need to get the elves to hang in there now.

And what hurts the Ethereal Horse more than that is the atmosphere it feels from the enemy army.

The enemy says it is more than twice as powerful, but without paying for it, it is striking a pale stone.

An atmosphere that twitches and pushes by this overwhelming number and quantity of troops.

It is also unforgettable for the Ethereal Horse.

"It's unpleasant air..."

On the spine of the Ethereal Horse, one cold sweat flowed.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

But it was Alexius who was more irritated by the war situation that became a crush between archers than Eladia or Ethereal Horse.

"What a battle."

Alexius, sitting in a chair placed on a chariot for the commander, shrugged as he slapped his elbow firmly with his finger.

The battle that Alexius is ideal for is a battle that crushes enemies with overwhelming power. Yet it was contrary to his aesthetics, such as this battle to sharpen the power of each other.

Alexius, riding himself out of his chair, speaks to the guardian under his eyes.

"This is nothing more than a waste of sharpening. Get the First Army down."

And the Crusaders have an army that can crush their enemies with the overwhelming power that Alexius most prefers. Alexius gives orders as he remembers the childish excitement of wielding his favorite toy.

"Order to Huakis of the Second Army. Crush the enemy."

The heavy-duty spear infantry regiment, the main force of the Holmeer National Crusade, was finally about to move.
