Red Storm Chapter 189

Book 5-7.4

At that moment, Shimax was being extremely shocked by Aizen’s sword art. Aizen’s white hair was odd, but Shimax could clearly tell that this man was extremely young. But this young looking man was definitely a master.

‘How could such a person be in the desert……’

Shimax exchanged blows with Aizen a couple of times before moving back and asking.

“My name is Shimax Ti Drams, the Commander of the Narrate Empire’s Royal Knights. May I ask who you are?”

“It is my pleasure to meet with the famed Commander Shimax of the Narrate Empire’s Royal Knights. My name is Aizen Pon Deviang, a member of the Rojini Kingdom’s Red Eagle Knight Brigade.”

Shimax was surprised at Aizen’s introduction. Even Shimax had heard the rumors about the tenth master of the Rojini Kingdom who reached that level at twenty years of age.

He also heard that this young man had become the Deputy Chief of the Red Eagle Knight Brigade, one of the famed third generation knight brigades of the Rojini Kingdom.

“We are currently moving under the orders of his highness, king of the Narrate Empire. If Sir Aizen is to step in, there may be issues between our empire and the Rojini Kingdom.”

“I was not planning on eavesdropping, but I have already heard about the entire situation. We must put the Knight’s Mission before the issues of the two nations. As a fellow Guardian Knight, I could not just sit back and watch.”

Aizen’s other name, her Guardian Knight.

His story was known by many travelers and had already spread across the entire continent. His white hair proved it to be true.

“I have received an order from my lord, while Aizen-nim needs to put his mission first. I guess there is no point in discussing this any further.”

Shimax calmly pointed his sword at Aizen. Deep in his heart, Shimax was filled with curiosity.

Petri, who had just fought against him, was the strongest knight of the Stalina Kingdom, but was no match for Shimax. Their level of experience was different. However, this young man in front of him right now could easily be his match.

Aizen looked toward Petri and started to speak.

“Please take your lady to safety. The person standing next to her will help you.”

“The Stalina Kingdom’s … no, I guess now I am just a wandering knight. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for Aizen-nim’s assistance. However, this battle is my mission. I cannot do that.”

Seeing Petri declining his assistance, Aizen slightly raised his voice and responded back.

“You seem to have a misunderstanding about your mission. The first mission of a Guardian Knight is to protect their liege. If you are not there, who will protect her? I am just helping you, I will not protect her.”

“But Aizen-nim on your own……”

“I am not alone, so please go ahead.”

Petri hesitated before realizing that Aizen was correct, and turned his horse toward her.

Aizen watched Petri move before turning his head and pointing his sword at Shimax.

Shimax started to speak.

“It is an honor to exchange blows with a Guardian’s Blade. However, that is that and an order is an order. The other knights and soldiers of the Narrate Empire will capture her.”

“It is my honor to face off against the Royal Blade of the Narrate Empire. I believe that I have done my duty by preventing Shimax-nim from chasing after them.”

“Then, please.”

While Aizen and Shimax clashed, the Narrate Empire’s Royal Knights rushed toward Petri and Princess Erope.

Yulian urgently started to speak to the two of them after seeing the Royal Knights charging toward them.

“Please rush toward the ship over there.”

“Sir, you are ……”

“Did you not take Aizen’s word to heart? Do not worry and go.”

Yulian shouted like that before grabbing both of the greatswords from his side and rushing forward toward the Narrate Empire’s Royal Knights.

“Oowoooooooooo~!”

Yulian’s loud shout echoed across the desert.

The Narrate Empire’s Royal Knights hesitated for a moment while watching Yulian who was running toward them, but they continued to charge as they had an order to accomplish.

Slaaaaaaaaaaaaaash~!

There was a loud wail of a blade before the Narrate Empire’s Royal Knights’ charge was stopped in an instant. Yulian’s two greatswords had made the four knights in the front fall off their horses.

It happened in an instant, but these knights were representatives of their nation. The knights in the rear rushed forward to attack Yulian, but Yulian used the strength of the greatswords to easily defend against them.

Yulian had no desire to kill them. They were all knights and warriors focused on their duty. Yulian was planning on respecting the fact that they were abiding their orders and just broke their swords or pressured them to the point that they no longer attacked.

“May I ask who you are?”

One of the knights shouted out to Yulian.

“Pareia’s Glow, Yulian Provoke. I respect the fact that you are abiding by your orders, but you are no match for me. I believe it would be wise for you to step back.”

The Royal Knights bit down on their lips after hearing Yulian’s words. They were very strong and had no equal other than the Empire’s masters and their respective knights. That was how they were able to become the Empire’s Royal Knights.

The reason they bit down on their lips was because they knew that Yulian was not lying. They were all skilled enough to know that Yulian was holding back after clashing against him a couple times.

“We thank you for your understanding, however, a knight with an order cannot retreat.”

One knight answered and clenched his teeth as he picked up his sword and rushed toward Yulian.

Yulian admired their will but still made sure not to hurt them. He just defended and made them fall off their horses to push away their desire for battle.

At that time, Aizen was pushing Shimax back quite a bit.

“Haaaaht!”

Aizen let out a short shout before using his sword to land a strong blow on Shimax’s steel gauntlets, and Shimax ended up dropping his sword from the impact.

“Kill me.”

Shimax shouted out with shame and shock, but Aizen put his sword away as he answered back.

“We are not enemies. It was not a fair battle as neither of us fought with murderous intent. All I ask is that Shimax-nim returns at this moment.”

Shimax’s body started to shake at Aizen’s words. He had heard that the Guardian’s Blade was strong, but he never expected that he would lose so miserably like this.

‘I guess the rumor that the Rojini Kingdom is the strongest in the Eastern Continent is not just because of their reform. Their knights are also extremely talented.’

Shimax was shocked. His knights were also being completely dominated by a single individual. That young man was extremely talented as well.

Shimax, who thought that Yulian must be a knight of the Rojini Kingdom as well, started to think that it was probably not possible to retrieve Princess Erope today, no, maybe even ever, to take her back to their nation.

However, another change happened at that time.

State of Affairs

I don’t know, if that thing did not happen……

Ah! Now that I think about it, I really hate the phrase ‘what if.’

Isn’t it more important to focus on the present?
