Chapter 216: Gigantic Duel 1
The first day’s Gigantic Duel had ended naturally .
7 wins, 2 draws, and 8 losses .
The army was being pushed back a little, but including Jukebal, only three riders were killed .
“The first day’s Gigantic Duel was just a taste . Tomorrow, I am going to send out some very good guys to flatten their noses!”
Bishop Maxim screamed in front of Marquis Valentino, the chief commander of the revolutionary army .
Indeed, as he had said, from the second day the real talents had come out .
But the results were completely different from what Maxim had expected from his subordinates .
Kwang! Pung!
Another Gigant’s body shattered and flew into the sky . When the upper body had shattered, the rider died instantly .
“Oh my, we lost again!”
“Dammit, from where did such a monster show up…”
On the second day, when the Gigantic duel had begun, from the rebel side, a halberd Gigant had come out .
At first, everyone thought that it was just another knight . It was because the Gigant which had come out was a warrior class Gigant, Centurion- a commonly used Gigant in the Holy Empire .
However, as a result of direct movement, the enemy Gigant was so amazing that it couldn’t be seen as a regular centurion .
In addition, the rebel riders seemed to be very strong .
Riders kept flying away from the Anti-revolutionary side, and Paladin Alfred, who brought in victories for the army, ended up on the ground .
“What? Is there anyone else who wants to challenge me? I’m very bored, so come on out already!”
Hearing the voice of the rider, the army turned shocked .
A woman, rather like a voice of a pretty young girl .
“8 consecutive losses in the hands of a girl… does anyone know the identity of that rider?”

The revolutionary army had built a large watchtower .
Over there, an elderly old man who was watching the Gigantic Duel with a telescope which was enchanted with Hawkeye magic .
He was Marquis Valentino, the chief commander of the Anti-Revolutionary army .
He was a general who didn’t make much of a good name in the military, but he was appointed as the chief commander by Archbishop Constantine to silence the dissatisfaction of the military .
The wife of Marquis was a member of the Marius faction, so it wasn’t like it happened without any ties .
“Sorry . Have you heard anything…”
Marquis Valentino shook his head as he saw the commander bow their heads .
‘I have never heard of any such knights in our empire, who could they be?’
If one was capable in the Holy Empire, then they were known . Before they began to camp, he even asked for the news from the intelligence department .
Among them, as young as the girl’s voice seemed, there was no mention .
“Chief Commander, I feel like we should let the Sword Master . ”
At the words from his lieutenant, he looked puzzled .
“Already?”
“It is clear that the siege that has happened to us, has boosted the morale of our enemies, and it will get tiring if left alone . ”
“Hmm, that shouldn’t lead to that . ”
Marquis Valentino looked at the three Sword Masters or Sword Master Paladin .
The commander of the 1st squadron was a Sword Master, and in the 2nd and 3rd squadron, there seemed to be one Sword Master Paladin .
But he couldn’t just ask them to enter the war .
Sword Masters were the last weapons used of each noble family, and to use them, he would have obtained the consent of their noble .
“Who should I take?”
“Huh, Hum!”

“Ah, my waist hurts all of sudden…”
“I feel like something fell in my eyes . ”
As Marquis Valentino spoke, the three commanders pretended to act as if they didn’t hear anything .
Honestly, one day or the other the Sword master would have to play .
But even then, they wanted to make a nice last appearance and finish stuff .
Moreover, the rebel’s female rider’s skills weren’t normal to deal with . And they would have to lose their battle, and they wanted to avoid such embarrassment .
As the three commanders were trying to escape, a loud voice spoke out .
“Is this how you act?! Then I will nominate them and place them in order…”
Valentino was about to pick one out .
Suddenly, from the army’s side, a Gigant had stepped out .
“Huh? who is that?”
After the Gigant came into sight, they realized that the form was very rare to witness in the Holy Empire . The Marquis looked at the commanders of the units .
“It isn’t the nation’s Gigant… maybe something in the territory?”
At the question of the chief commander Marquis, all the 1st, 2nd and 3rd squadron’s commanders shook their head .
At that time, Count Marcus raised his hand and spoke with a stern expression .
“The Gigant belongs to the Red Wolf Mercenary, which is currently under my command . ”
“What? A mercenary has participated?”
“Uh! Maybe he has a death wish!”
“Where did you find a mercenary to place in such war?!”
All the commanders had ridiculed expressions on their faces .
The enemy’s riders were presumed to be an expert superman . But, they were a little glad if the mercenary was an Expert .
“I, I too don’t know . I haven’t ordered him to act . ”
When people began to criticize him, Count Marcus seemed embarrassed and tried to make excuses for it .
And he was annoyed with the Red Wolf Mercenary .
In fact, he did think of placing the 4th squadron’s riders from the second day itself .
But he only wanted to show the other commanders his victorious side and was terribly confused when he saw the strong opponent .
But, for that to have happened without him giving out any instructions!
‘Lev, what the hell is he thinking…’
If things went wrong, Luke would surely be held accountable .
Count Marcus, who was very determined to take action, decided to at least keep his calm in front of Marquis Valentino .
