Succeeding as a Knight in a Gender-Reversal Game

61 – Siege and Defense of Marhen Territory (3)

“Are you okay with going with this number, Johan? The number of enemy wizards must be quite high… “

“So, rather, let’s move with a small number of people. Forcibly mobilizing exhausted soldiers simply provides a target for the wizards’ attacks. “It is much better to do a little damage with people who are a little more nimble.”

– Confuse the enemy with continuous surprise attacks… It’s a good operation. So much so that it’s hard to think of him as a knight.

Angela accepted the guerrilla operation I suggested.

As a result, we decided to split into separate groups and attack designated positions, and I was able to command 10 nimble soldiers along with Lena and the Daebright sisters, whom I was already familiar with, having already coordinated several times.

However, our women looked quite puzzled when I presented this strategy.

“But John, you don’t mind if it’s like this? Knights don’t like this… “

“Which one? Are you talking about tactics?”

“Normally, knights dislike surprise operations like this. Why work hard if you don’t get any fame? Especially on rainy days like this.”

Sharon is definitely wrong with what she says. In fact, when she told Angela that she was going to use her knights for her surprise operation, the expressions on her knights’ faces were not very pleased.

Perhaps Angela has not yet completely mastered her control over them. The green lion at this time was still a little sloppy… Tsk tsk… He would have to quickly grow up to the point where he could take his place and lead people in the military.

But her current situation is actually better for me. Rather, the more scenes I can play an active part in, the higher my value will be after this war is over.

Perhaps we can demand more than just the Ivory Territory from Princess Angela.

Thinking about that makes me feel better. Sharon and Melon’s answers were so humorous that they inevitably came out.

“As you can see, I’m not an ordinary knight, right? “You can use any trick as long as you can win?”

“Wow… I always think about it, but Yohan really goes beyond common sense. He is like that both as a man and as a knight. “Of course I mean that in a good way!”

“How about this operation later, Johan? Nam Namsa, carrying a white flag, is going to surrender to the opposing lord. And the lord who had his eyes on the handsome male knight at the banquet that day made him want to drink alcohol and make him lose his temper, so he dragged him into the bedroom and, seeing the opportunity, stabbed him to death… “aaah!!!”

-Taaa!!

Rena’s palm explodes on the back of Meron’s head, who had devised an unimaginable strategy. The sound of her using her hands radiated clearly as the rain fell all around her. It must hurt a lot Melon… I’m so glad that that hand didn’t reach out to me.

“Don’t say strange things to John. Have you forgotten the promise we made before? If you keep doing that… “

“Ah, okay!! Sorry Johan! And Lena too! I’m a mercenary b*tch who learned nothing… I keep making mistakes… Please don’t hate me… “

Melon shows her sullen face and bows her head to Lena and me. Sharon didn’t say anything, but she seemed to have had similar thoughts, and she was flinching.

I smiled and sighed slightly and stroked their heads.

“There’s no way I could hate you for something like that. I know that Meron doesn’t think of me as that kind of man, despite what she says. “It’s not really like that, is it?”

“Oh, no!!! That’s absolutely not the case! “I swear with everything I have!!”

“Then that’s enough. Because I believe in Melon who is with me. Of course, the same goes for Sharon.”

These are colleagues who go out with me even in rainy and difficult operational situations, or perhaps they can become a relationship with me that goes beyond that. Of course, I think we have already figured out their basic mentality.

He made such seemingly light jokes because he was interested in me, otherwise he wouldn’t have done that.

After obtaining the Ego Sword, I had a mental awakening, and since then, I have been enjoying the tension between them. Don’t cross the line, but don’t go too far either.

But what on earth is that promise Lena spoke of? I’m just curious… There must be another secret between women. Let’s not dig in and ask questions for no reason.

After comforting Sharon and Meron, I looked at Lena, and although she didn’t seem to be paying any particular attention, the corners of her mouth were shiny, with slightly more pouty lips than usual.

After understanding her state of mind, I lead the horse to her side this time.

“Lena. How is your sword training these days? The last time we sparred together before final exams, we had grown a lot… “

“Oh, oh! Are you okay. I feel like I can definitely overcome the wall these days… “Can I get help with sparring later?”

“Of course. “You can spar whenever Lena wants.”

As I watch Lena’s reactions while having a light conversation, I can see her restless eyes.

I think it’s really cute that he can say whatever he wants without hesitation to others, but can’t really say anything in front of me.

-Ugh…

“Lena. Don’t worry.”

“Uh, huh, huh…” Well, what… ?”

“Well… Is there a strategy, what’s next? “That’s the story.”

While lightly brushing the hair behind Lena’s ear, I placed my lips on her ear and spoke quietly.

Lena immediately stiffened her body and responded by flinching and avoiding my eyes, but I could clearly see through her cute reaction that all the nerves in her body were on my lips.

I can’t help but notice the kindness Lena shows me, unless she’s dead with her nose stuck in a plate of water. So, I understand her reactions to the women around me.

If we can definitely obtain the Ivory Territory this time… You can look forward to it, Lena. In many ways. Because I also endured a lot.

I feel like I’m a bit of a piece of trash for adjusting my liver here and there, but that’s okay here.

I think about the past years where I just endured it and lost everything. How comfortable and enjoyable it is now compared to then.

Since I have resolved to get everything I desire without regrets, I will ignore that little voice of conscience.

I can hear the soldiers behind me talking a little bit about our relationship, but it doesn’t matter at all. Because the most important thing to me is my people.

Still, since I have become a knight in charge of command with their lives as collateral, I will have to do my best to protect them and excel in battle.

I realized that I had already arrived at a place that matched the topography of the information I had received from Angela, so I lightly raised one hand and stopped everyone.

“Alright, from now on, everyone make as much noise as possible. From here on, this is their territory, so be careful. If you need to say anything, we will only communicate using hand gestures and signals announced in advance by the person in front of you. “Then, let’s set off.”

Sisters Lena and Diveright clear the mood from before and show off their sharp knightly spirit again.

-Chaaa…

In the darkest hour just before sunrise, on a foggy, rainy summer morning, we slowly made our way towards the enemy’s outskirts.

The sound of raindrops hitting the armor was slightly thick, like the blood of enemies that would soon be buried.

* * *

“Hmm… I’m really sleepy. Why is it raining when we leave? “I heard that the kids who were on guard at dawn had a good sleep because there was no rain.”

“You have bad luck. Hey, weren’t those prostitutes who were walking around the other day okay? “It’s been a while since I lost some water, so I think I’ll survive.”

As she listened to the stories of the b*tches pretending to be their seniors, boasting that they had joined the rebellion a few weeks before her, Kelly began to worry about her rain.

There won’t be too much water, right? I wish the war would end before the crops were harvested…

-You have joined the People’s Liberation Army, which will rise up on its own to escape the oppression of the empire’s greedy pigs! Your major will become the beginning of the legend of the peasant nation we will build!!

While she was eating and going to work as usual, she was suddenly dragged by a swarm of women and became part of a riot. Kelly is sick of all this.

Arrows, swords, and corpses suddenly flying out of nowhere.

Fortunately, for some reason, there are a lot of wizards on this side, and they protect themselves by even controlling monsters with their mysterious power, but in any case, scary things are scary. Kelly herself was an ordinary farmer who never harmed others.

On the other hand, the two b*tches next to me who were loudly talking about prostitutes, I don’t know where they came from, but they had no hesitation about killing people like fish with water on the battlefield.

“So you’re saying that the male knight made the princess miss out on everything he caught? “You’re handsome?”

“I’ve never seen him before, but he’s said to be crazy handsome. “The b*tch who was there said that if the incubus really existed, it wouldn’t have been like that.”

“Wow… i envy you. We need to pull him off the horse right away and poop him until he gets pulled out. “The man comes out saying where is this place, damn it, damn it.”

When Kelly, who frowned at the sight of the women waving their hips in the air as if they had just caught a male knight who was talking proudly, shook her head and started looking at her bushes again,

-Rustling…

Something unpleasant, perhaps the sound of raindrops, caught her ears.

“Hey… I just heard something strange… “

“Aang? Hey, don’t talk nonsense. What is the sound? Would those drivers come to a place like this on a rainy day? “Do you want to be like a wet rat, such a proud b*tch?”

“I’m only saying this because I have experience on the battlefield, b*tch. Are you being territorial because this is your neighborhood, newbie? “Can you catch me today?”

There was no way for them, who had no military discipline, to have such advanced concepts as fortune telling. I just did it because my superiors told me to.

And that was the main cause of taking their lives.

-Suddenly!! Suddenly!!!

“Keu, huh…” !”

“

The knife floating in the air suddenly appeared before their eyes and quickly pierced and ripped out the necks of the two gangster soldiers, causing them to die without even being able to scream out their final words.

“Ugh, ahhh…” “

Kelly wanted to scream and run away and call for help, but she couldn’t and she didn’t want to.

Because she had a strong intuition that if she screamed, she would die.

-Sereung…

“Everyone, lower your posture and be alert to your surroundings. “If you feel anything strange, immediately give a hand signal to the person next to you and inform me.”

The heavy coolness of her weapon, holding a knife to her own throat without her even noticing it, heightened Kelly’s sense of crisis to the limit.

Kelly quickly turned her eyes and confirmed the identity of the person holding the sword…

“…Wife, angel… ?”

“…I don’t care what you call me, but just speak quietly. Otherwise, I’ll just kill you. Are you a native living here? “Do you know the way well?”

An angel could be seen descending on her royal family asking her where she was from.

Of course, the fact that the angel was aiming at his neck did not change, but wouldn’t it be better for a handsome man to do this rather than an ugly b*tch?

Fortunately, Kelly, who had been paying taxes to the dukedom for a long time on the outskirts of the Marchen estate, best met the conditions John was asking for, and John gave her a sweet smile when she nodded.

“Good, I finally found a useful source of information.”

Kelly fell in love with her at first sight and felt relieved when she saw the angel’s smile that made her want to confess.

“Or she was just thinking about killing him.”

Because the angel before my eyes could also become a devil who takes his own life.
