Chapter 208: Red Wolf Mercenaries 1

“Be careful! Do it slowly!”

“Just a little more this side… okay! Put it down here!”

The Flying Dragons transport fleet placed the cargoes which had arrived .

The military goods including the weapons and armors, artillery and spears were all unloaded with the help of a crane .

Among those was a cargo coming down with the most strict packing .

The cargo, which was removed into pieces and wrapped with canvas cloth was transported into a warehouse and was reassembled by field masters and Iron mages employed by the Flying Dragons .

“It is a knight class Gigant, Hector . ”

‘Is this the new Gigant made by the magic tower of the Baroque Imperial?’

At the introduction of the Gigant by Lazlie, Duke Ferrierd thought to himself . As he was already aware, Hector had a maximum output of 23000 fights .

In addition, the new composite material Mado, which was placed on the frame wasn’t just durable but was more resilient .

In addition, the armor was made of a new Gigantium alloy, which was much thinner and more durable than before .

“But, when I think about it, it looks very similar to the Centurion that was made 15 years back by the Arthenia Royal Magic tower . ”

As Aslan had pointed it out, Lazlie nodded and explained the entire thing .

“Only those who were being sent to the Konrad kingdom were deliberately made to look like Centurions . If it came out that you were being supported by a particular nation, it would turn difficult for both us and your Majesty . ”

“Indeed…!”

Duke Ferrierd had declared the rebellion and independence in the name of anti-corruption against Constantine .

But what would happen if it would turn into a blatant lie and was being supported by the Baroque Empire?

That would cause a fall of will in the ground level people, and of course, he would be blamed for being a fighter of the Baroque .

“I think it would nice to change the painting style which is used by the Konrad Kingdom . Of course, the same goes for the colors of the weapons too . Ah! I think that it would be better to put Konrad’s military uniform on the mercenaries and riders of Flying Dragons, how does that sound?” Said Lazlie .

“It would be fine . We promise to treat you equal and on par with our knights . ”

Lazlie and Ferrierd had a good conversation .

Shirley was yawning as she was beginning to get tired of their talks, and suddenly, she looked at the ceiling and threw the halberd .

Kwang!

The roof was pierced with the sound of mana exploding . Pieces of wood and tiles and debris poured down like rain .

Surprised by the sudden situation, Aslan along with the knights surrounded his father .

“What are you doing?!”

As Aslan yelled at her, Shirley shrugged .

“There was a rat on the ceiling . ”

“Rat?”

Aslan who couldn’t understand her actions, soon understood what he meant and gave orders to the knights .

“Right now, search every corner! Catch all those who seem suspicious!”

“Yes, prince!”

The knights quickly scattered everywhere .

‘Wah, this is, at such an important place there is a mole going around…’

Sancho, or Count Ferrero approached Lazlie, who was thinking to himself .

“Where do you think he might have come from?”, asked Sancho .

“Well, most likely to have come from Bless . Maybe further north too . ”

“Do we know whom to even catch?”

“Well, we will know soon enough . Shirley is good at hunting rats . ”

Ferrero’s eyes turned over to where Shirley was .

But Shirley wasn’t in the place where she was before . Perhaps, maybe she went along with the knights who had scattered to search for the intruder .

‘Different from the intelligent department . ’

Shirley, known as the new master class knight of the Empire, was actually from the intelligence .

Count Ferrero, who was feeling bad, prayed for the rat who was going to turn miserable when it got caught . If it wasn’t Bless, then it was a favorable situation for the rat, but anywhere other than that and Shirley wouldn’t let go .

“Uh? What happened, man?”

“You don’t need to know, reveal your identity . ”

As soon as the orders fell from Aslan, searches took all over the place .

A hooded worker, witnessed the scene unfold standing right behind them .

He was carrying a bag of flour on his shoulders and he wasn’t able to control his heart which was pounding hard .

‘Dammit, did they manage to detect a high Dark Elf warrior…?’

He was Hyrun, an agent of the Volga intelligence .

Hyrun had been ordered by the high commander and had to infiltrate Alvera . He then ended up keeping an eye on the rebels .

It was reported that the Baroque Empire was reported to be involved in the war of the Holy Empire .

The Holy Arthenia empire too held hostile relationships with the Volga Republic but dealt much better than the Baroque Empire .

In addition, if the Holy Empire which was like a barrier to contain the Baroque Empire weakens, then Volga Republic too would have to face negative effects .

Thus, the Volga Republic did nothing to the people of the holy empire .

However, the infiltration confirmed that the Baroque had been intervening, so they had to take necessary steps to stop the civil war from intensifying .

‘I need to get out of here…’

Hyrun, who looked around began to move but soon came to halt . It was a small girl holding a halberd stood in front of him .

Hyrun’s complexion went hardened, he began to look around the entire warehouse .

“Hello, uncle rat . Seems like you are busy going somewhere?”

‘Dammit, I guess today was an unlucky day . ’

The girl, Shirley, continued to speak in a chilling voice, which flustered Hyrun .

“This unique feel isn’t similar to a human . Are you a Dark Elf? A mole from the Volga Republic?”

‘I understand now . This one sure is skillful, but she is a mix of humans and fairies, that is why she understood my trace . ’

Not all the fairies were on the side of Volga .

There were some fairies who were enslaved to humans, and some were assimilated like Shirley .

The girl in front of him was of a mixed-race with dwarves, because of her ability to handle heavy weight halberd with her small build .

“My brother died in the hands of Volga’s Duke Dimitry . My brother despised me and my mom, but I still need to get my revenge . So I need to eat those who took down my brother . ”

“Take this then . ”

Not letting what she had to say, Hyrun tore the bag he was carrying and pulled out the dagger .

The flour which was in the bag fluttered everywhere and blurred everyone’s vision .

“Huh, if you have a revenge to take, go and see Dimitry in person, kid!”

“Ku, Ku, Kul! I can’t do that!”

In a difficult situation where one couldn’t open their eyes, Shirley swung her halberd .

Kwang!

As the attack fell, a strong aura went along with it and a long deep furrow got created on the ground .

Hyrun, who avoided the attack by just a single hair tip, jumped and ran again .

“Catch him!”

“The suspicious one has come out!”

At the sudden turmoil which began to happen, the knights and soldiers rushed to the site like bees .

Hyrun quickly escaped from their incoming attacks and jumped into the river .

Splash!

“Catch him! Don’t let him out!”

The soldiers who followed him began to release their arrows .

But Hyrun didn’t rise to the surface .

Only dozens of arrows hit the water’s surface .
