The Genius Blacksmith's Game
War. (6)
The reporter who submitted the report hurriedly withdrew.
Lebanon remained silent for quite a while.
Silver Shadow hidden in the shadows.
It was surprising even to him, who had stayed by Lebanon's side for a long time and was rescued by Lebanon's hands as a child and lives for him.
This is the first time Mr. Lebanon has been so agitated.
Eun-young looked at the slightly trembling body and began to speak.
What are you thinking about so intently?
“The blade is being sharpened even further. Consecutive victories are actually making the Kingdom of Hyun stronger. The mountain guardian has defeated an army of 170,000, displaying strength exceeding that of a member of the First Knight Order of the Heart of Parion, while the sea pirate Achao has surpassed his past self.”
“To think that the 50 giants the Pharion Empire boasted of were repelled by a mere single golem…… The country of the prefecture continues to grow stronger.”
It is something even Eun-young cannot believe.
“I don’t understand. Can an artifact really be that amazing?”
“……The artifact’s influence must be part of it, but a single drop named Hyun-su is clearing the entire polluted river.”
"yes……?"
“…It is a nation that has grown considerably, yet is not large in size. However, the Mountain Keepers, wielding the strength of over 200,000 troops, are risking their lives to protect that mountain, and Achao has abandoned his life as the Pirate King to fight. The same goes for Ark, the one who repelled the Giant Army. The Parion Empire attempted to recruit Ark by spending several times more money than the County Kingdom did, but failed; they fought even though they knew that if they had brought that Transcendent Golem to Parion, they would have obtained gold and treasures to live on for the rest of their lives. You, Silver Shadow, must know well that much of the information I possess was brought by you.”
Eunyoung (Silver Shadow).
He, too, is someone who moves information.
Although Cavell was outstanding among the outsiders, could he be better than Eunyoung, who has lived here?
Also, now Cavell was a tyrant, not an informant.
The information Eun-young has is the best.
“The Sword King, the Azure Sky, the Descendant of the Sword God, the Descendant of the Tyrant, the Sage, the Undefeated Knight, the Overlord, and even the King of Stories…….”
“…….”
“They have all banded together tightly solely for the sake of this man named Hyun. It must be due to his peculiarity. The information you gave me—that he was destined to be a virtuous ruler in the past—appears to be true. No, he has already surpassed the realm of a virtuous ruler.”
Holy King
A king who led a benevolent and wise era.
“……He possesses the power to gather special individuals. It is something only he can do. It is something that neither I nor Emperor Volond of Parion can accomplish. It is because of them that Hyun can unleash his current power, and that is why it is beyond marvelous.”
"So you are saying that while Hyun's power itself is weak, those who protect him are formidable. As you said, that, too, must ultimately be Hyun's power."
It is because a man named Hyun was able to gather them that he is spewing out such a magnificent display.
Back then.
The knight who had run out was running back in.
“……Commander. We have news that half of the Eunryeong Army has met their deaths and the other half has surrendered.”
“……So, the reinforcements from the Kingdom of Hyun have finally arrived?”
"no."
"……then?"
“They say Hyun-su single-handedly annihilated half of the Eunryeong Army, causing them to lose their will to fight!”
Lebanon fell into panic once again, and the reporter who submitted the report hurriedly withdrew.
Eun-young, who had been hiding, reappeared, and Lebanon, who had been silent for a moment, spoke.
“……I retract my statement that the power of the string itself is weak.”
"yes……."
Lebanon and Eunyoung were flustered.
They couldn't even begin to understand how on earth this could happen.

“Ugh, ugh…….”
“Ugh… My arm is broken, Rosso. Please help me up…”
“My arms and legs are broken, though…….”
“Priest, where is the priest!”
“I’m sorry. Don’t you know that it takes a long time to reattach broken arms and legs? Also, you don’t seem to realize it, but you weren’t broken; you were crushed.”
“Ugh!”
Great Parion's Silver Spirit Army.
A dazzling army clad in resplendent silver armor, entering the enemy's heart, the 'Royal Capital,' and sweeping away the enemies without flinching at their attacks.
The place where a single wolf swept through was pure pandemonium.
The priests rushed forward, but they could not treat the crushed Silver Spirit soldiers.
There were also many whose bodies were strangely twisted and contorted in various places, and even the armor, swords, spears, and silver armor they wore were dented.
“……Still, I believe my death won’t be in vain… *cough*…… What happened to the enemy commander?”
“What has become of the enemy Hyunsu? If I sacrifice my life and die for Parion, what would I fear?”
“……It’s perfectly fine?”
It looked like your skin was just a bit scraped.
“……?”
Pfft-
A user's comment.
The news that it only reduced HP by a mere 11% spread throughout the entire Silver Army.
It became a huge terror and spread in an instant.
The Silver Dragon troops at the rear were terrified as they watched the troops devastated by the wolf that descended from the sky, and the individuals involved were in a state of panic, unable to move.
At this time, the enemy commander and king Hyun-su says that his skin was merely scraped.
I just drank a potion, so my wound has healed.
Splash, splash
For Parion!
The soldiers and knights who seemed to be dying heroically while leaving their last words turn to ashes in despair.
Hyun-su was out of sight for several days during the war. But he has returned stronger.
Where do you train every time you go… Why do you get stronger after going somewhere?
But didn't Fenrir's charge usually kill most people instantly? The knights didn't die though?
Well, they are the Knights of Parion. They are several times stronger than ordinary knights. Normally, they should have wiped out about 50,000.
Isn't 20,000 or 30,000 a big deal…?
That is true, but the fact is that there are still 160,000 left and wars are still going on everywhere, so Hyun-su has to hold them off all by himself…
The truth is revealed behind the wonder.
It shows how high the level of soldiers and knights is, who get up even with broken arms.
Hyun-su has also confirmed that they are already completely exhausted.
Shortly after the battle began, I learned from their shouts.
The commander here was Ruma.
Someone who is acquainted with me…
And it is said that a man named 'Rook', who served as a meat shield, was also by his side.
Hyunsu knew that they had created this opportunity for him.
Thank you. Luxio, thank you. Ruma.
Hyunsu was aware that if they had been 100% intact, they would have entered Hyun's country even if he had tried to stop them.
one side.
Luxiu and Ruma were standing on a high hill, observing the current situation.
Luxiu, looking at Ruma with a wistful expression, said.
“……Are you scared?”
“……I won’t fall for it. I have no intention of joining the battlefield. I believe I have sufficiently repaid the favor I received from Hyun-soo just by doing this much.”
“……Thanks. Ruma, let’s have a meal together.”
You ask me to eat together every day, but you make me pay the bill.
Luxio gazed into the distant void.
Your Majesty is in danger.
He quickly changed the subject, and Ruma looked puzzled.
“Aren’t you going to go help? If you keep doing this, your King will really die. No matter how much his power has been drained, he is still Lord Eunryeong. There are as many as 10,000 knights among them. Yet fewer than 50 knights have died.”
It was understandable that he wasn't going, but it was puzzling that Luxiu wasn't participating in the battle.
“…I have served Your Highness for a long time. Therefore, there are things I can tell just by looking at your expression. It is the look of Your Highness who is convinced that you can win.”
Ruma was surprised, and the two of them raised their energy almost simultaneously.
Hyunsu's murmuring from a distance was heard.
“Not a single knight died…… Whoa…… Whoa……!”
Ahem…….
Luxio cleared his throat.
“Even I fall from a tree…….”
Were you a monkey in your past life?
For a moment, Luxiu doubted himself for having watched him for such a long time.
Then, at that time.
“Okay, is this just right before wearing it?”
The words heard made Ruma and Luxiu focus.
At that moment.
Click-
Hyunsu confidently watched Eunryeong-gun as he regrouped, got up, and began his march.
The Overlord's armor set he wore for a long time.
It entered the inventory and was equipped with new armor.
Shhhhhhh-
The armor, from which a blue aura stealthily rose, was composed of a form intermediate between scale armor and plate armor.
And the densely packed barbs reminded me of a certain creature.
"turtle……?"
Far from looking strange, it looked cool as it continued in a regular pattern.
Even Luxiu and Changseong Ruma could not take their eyes off the new armor he was wearing.
“I wonder what kind of being’s material it was made from?”
Ruma didn't know much about Hyunsu, but Luxiou knew him better than anyone.
However, I never imagined that it would actually come true.
also.
Hyunsu himself revealed that he was vulnerable to armor.
However… … the fact that the name ‘Hyun’ was clearly written on one side of the chest made me realize that it was an artifact created by Hyunsu.
"majesty……?"
Eunryeong-gun begins to charge toward Hyeonsu.
The appearance of the country of Hyun is visible in the distance.
Hyun-su looked back at Hyun's country and smiled slightly.
“Protect it, Hyunmu.”
The Hyunmu armor worn by Hyunsu caused a massive resonance.
Based on that irresistible command, Hyunmu begins to move to protect it.
Rrrrrrrrr-!!
Pillars of ice rising from the ground rapidly extended, forming the shape of a massive being in front of Hyunsu.
“Hiiik…….”
“What on earth is that?”
“Hey, a turtle?”
“No… a dragon?”
"It has the face of a dragon, but the body of a turtle?"
The form is a being with the head of a dragon and a huge shell.
With the descent of that being, ice crystals floated down around Eunryeong-gun.
Crackle-!
The ice crystals froze the air, and the 6-meter-tall Hyunmu charged straight toward Eunryeong-gun.
“Kuuuuuuuuuk!”
Crash-!!!
I freeze within a 300m radius of the charging Hyunmu.
“Heeek, run away……!”
“It is the descent of the Black Tortoise……!”
The soldiers and knights could not finish their sentences.
The armor, swords, spears, horses, etc. they were wearing were completely frozen.
Scenes of people freezing in a posture of trying to escape occurred in many places.
That power was like a wave.
Spreading out rapidly like waves, the 70,000 Silver Army soldiers were completely turned into ice statues at once.
Hyunmu seems to be looking back at his master, Hyunsu.
It looked as if it were responding to Hyunsu's spell, "Protect, Hyunmu."
– You're saying it's a black turtle!?
Why did the divine beast Hyunmu descend here?
No, it is not the descent of the divine beast Hyunmu, but the power of the armor Hyunsu has newly donned. In other words, it is the power of the skill.
Then, what happens to those frozen people?
Hyunmu turned to look at Hyunsu, then quickly melted away and seeped into the floor.
As if the mission had been completed.
and……
Crunch, crunch, crunch-!
The frozen 70,000 Silver Army began to shatter one by one like shards of glass.
Crash
It freezes completely and rolls on the floor.
There were no 'living' left where the 70,000 soldiers had stood.
Only frozen, shattered corpses, armor, and artifacts remained, lying scattered about.
And shocked Ruma could not believe the situation that was currently unfolding.
He looked at the spot where the 70,000 had been devastated, then turned his head to look at Luxiu.
“You have done it. You have succeeded in crafting an outstanding armor. You are truly remarkable, Your Majesty.”
Ruma was shocked for the second time.
The undefeated knight.
A being envied by all knights.
Luxiu was crying, truly moved by the king's growth.
