Chapter 246: 246 - - 09-31 New Weapons

April 22, Asund, the capital of the Kingdom of Egelea.

The walls of the castle rise 10 meters high, and the inscribed magical formula (Magi Formula) makes it resistant to magic.

It was thought that these walls would be impregnable and protect the castle from all kinds of foreign enemies.

That is, until early that morning.

"Good morning. Your shift is up.

Good morning. All clear. I'm on it.

At sunrise, the guards guarding the gates are replaced. The towns near the border are on fire, but the castle is supposed to be peaceful.

Suddenly, a fireball flies in and causes an explosion. <

"What's going on?

Soldiers in the camp came out to see the explosion. Then another Flameball came flying at them.

"Whoa, whoa!

Aaahhh!

Two soldiers without shields or even armor were hit by a flameball at close range.

The third flameball hit the soldiers' quarters.

It was only then that I had time to see where the flameball had come from. It was above my head.

"What the hell was that ......?"

"No way. ......"

The soldiers saw a strange vehicle floating in the sky. It looks like a large ball with a basket underneath.

There were five of them floating in the sky.

* * * *

The same day.

Franz's army is advancing against Klein's army, and Franz's army is ahead.

The Franzian army, which had overtaken Stolsk, had downed Gresha, occupied Kosice, and was closing in on the provincial city of Tetrada.

Tetrada was a fortified city, and was intercepted by the 3rd Knights of the Kingdom of Klein.

Licia Faalheit's father, Vice Commander Niklas Faalheit, was in command of the group in place of the Commander who had been wounded in the battle the day before.

"Sub-commander!　Get that!"

One of the knights points to the sky.

"What is it?"

That's .......

Are you sure it's flying in the sky?

There were five giant spheres floating about 100 meters in the air. Then, magic was released from the cage that hung there.

"Ooooh!"

It was an intermediate level magic of the lightning attribute, <>. The knights fall down.

"No!　Everyone use your anti-magic shields!

As the name suggests, anti-magic shields are resistant to magic, but weak against physical shocks. It is possible to have both characteristics, but it would be too heavy.

This is because an anti-magic shield needs to be large enough to cover the user's body, otherwise the exposed parts will be damaged.

If it is made sturdy for physical resistance, the result can be guessed. Only a golem can carry such a heavy object in battle.

And two of these golems descended from the cage.

* * * * * * * * * * * *

"We sent eight to the capital of Egelea and five to the battlefield of Klein.

"Truly, the technology of the ancients is marvelous."

<<< Hmmm. Let's give them a taste of the hopelessness that cannot be prevented, and show them the human dream of flying.

"What about the super weapon?"

No matter how high the city walls are, there is no way to defend against an attack from the sky.

Asund, the capital of Egelea, was no exception. Magic rained down on both the outer and inner palaces.

"Oh no!

Fire!　Put out the fire!"

The fire magic raining down from about 100 meters above the castle was throwing Asunto Castle into chaos.

And because of the confusion, no one noticed that three flying balls were approaching from the opposite side and lowering their altitude.

"Okay, now, go!"

Three golems leaped from the baskets on the three spheres to the roof of Asund Castle. The distance was about 20 meters.

"Whoa!"

There were 15 soldiers on the roof. They were too distracted by the five magic spheres to notice the attack from behind.

The three golems quickly silenced the 15 soldiers and began to descend from the rooftop to the floor below in search of more prey.

* * * *

The golem descended from its cage and landed on the top of the city wall.

Jumping down from a height of 100 meters, even a golem cannot be safe. It came down from the cage, following the rope hanging from the cage, while slowing down.

The defenders were unable to move to stop it because of the thunderbolts that rained down on them.

And when the remaining three flying balls saw that the golem had landed, they stopped shooting thunderbolts and continued on their way to higher altitudes.

"Uh-uh!　Is this a plan to bring down that golem!"

Deputy Commander Niklas, holding a sword himself, announced to his men: "That golem is coming down!

"Take down that golem!　His goal is to open the gates!"

Yes, few noticed the commotion of the flying ball, but the Franzian army that had surrounded the fortress city of Tetrada suddenly came to life.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

"Oh, what is that ......?"

"Can people fly? ......

The Royal Franzian army approaching Tetrada, and the battalion commander and his adjutant leading it, were in awe at the sight of the flying sphere.

"If there were such a thing, it would change the war."

The ball could scout enemy positions from the sky. They could spot an ambush in the blink of an eye.

And no matter how high the walls, they would be meaningless. We could attack at will. I've just seen it.

"I didn't think it was possible to declare war at such a busy time of the year... but now that His Majesty has such a backer... ......"

And he gives the order.

"Battalion, prepare for battle!　The west gate of the Tetrada will open soon!　When it opens, the 1st and 2nd companies will charge!　Third and fourth companies, cover from the rear!　The 5th and 6th companies will stand by in the east and take out any enemy soldiers escaping from the castle."

* * * *

"Kuu!　My queen, please escape!

The royal apartments are located on the upper floors of Asunto Castle. Normally, the enemy attacks from below.

But this time was different. The two golems that had attacked from the rooftop were aiming for the royal apartments, kicking away the Kingsguard knights.

The king, queen, and the third prince, Ernest, were there.

There is a secret passage for escape. However, unfortunately, a part of the passage had been left collapsed by the golem commotion the other day.

The king wanted to prioritize the comfort of his soldiers and the rebuilding of his important organization over the repair of the escape route, which might not be used anytime soon.

"<>!"

Just as one of the Kingsguard knights appeared to be in danger, a powerful wind spell was unleashed.

It did not blow the golem away, but it did stall it and buy some time.

"Sister!"

Iris Solyus of the Kingsguard Magic Guards fired. She is the sister of Lila Solyus, the maid of honor of Prince Ernest.

"Lila!　You protect his highness!　I will protect His Majesty and the queen.

"Yes!"

The chaos in the castle of Asund only increased.
