People are at the border, but they become the incarnation of the sun

She had heard rumors about the Knights of Kalia from her father. They were heroes like the Crucible Knights led by the First King Ge Fulei, who were able to stand alone against ten thousand enemies.

Moreover, even the powerful Crucible Knights could not gain any advantage by fighting against the Kalia Knights. There were even rumors that one of the Crucible Knights, who was almost invincible in every battle, died at the hands of the Kalia Knights.

Torret on the side suddenly neighed and kicked the ground with his hooves, as if to confirm Reinhardt's statement.

"Thank you, Torret." He smiled and stroked Torret's mane. He then took out some sweetened dried fruits from his leather bag and fed them to Torret. Then he said to Irena, "Yes, just as Torret agreed, I didn't lie at all. I'm honest and trustworthy. If I make a false claim, I'll compensate you tenfold."

"...Then thank you, Lord Rhine. I have decided to return to Morn City with you."

Irena also made a decision. Although the knight who called himself Reinhard spoke strangely and was ruthless, she could feel that this person was not a bad person.

She was willing to believe Reinhardt.

"Then it is happily decided, Miss Irena. I will help you onto the horse."

Reinhardt gently held the girl's slender arm, slowly put his arm around her slender waist, and slowly helped her onto Torret's back.

Feeling the slightly hot masculine scent emanating from Reinhardt, a slight blush suddenly appeared on Irena's fair and pretty face.

Apart from her father, this was the first time a man other than Reinhardt had been so close to her.

However, Reinhardt didn't notice this at all and was very happy instead.

This can be considered the first step in resolving Irena's death.

After all, in the original route, if you accepted the letter and ignored the girl, Irena would be dead when you returned.

Although we don't know whether she committed suicide or was murdered, if she was a hybrid, Irena's body would not be so intact.

But there is no need to think so much now. With him around, he wants to see who is so powerful that he can take someone's life.

This is not arrogance, but pure confidence.

However, when Irena rode on his back, Torrett snorted in dissatisfaction, looking at him with a resentful look as if saying, "You actually let someone ride on my back without my consent? This problem can't be solved without two kilograms of small dried fruits (Loya fruits)!"

"Yes, yes, once this matter is settled, I'll get you a few pounds of dried fruit."

Reinhardt stroked Torret's mane and soothed him.

I don’t know why, but it feels like I have a pet.

However, just as he was about to mount his horse, his sleeve was suddenly pulled: "What's wrong? Do you want to eat some dried fruit too?"

“…”

Melina didn't say anything, she just stared at him, which made people feel a little creepy.

"Okay, okay, enough joking around. What's going on?"

"...Are you really the Knight of Kalia?" Melina asked word by word.

"Yeah, what's wrong? Any problem?"

"...No."

After saying that, Melina's figure disappeared again, and dots of fluorescence attached to his body.

"....Do you have to be so weird?"

Reinhardt said that Melina seemed to be even stranger than in the game. She was originally just a useless little wooden girl, but now she seemed to have the attributes of a riddler and always liked to speak half-sentences!

It's so frustrating!

But what he didn't know was that Melina had more doubts in her heart than he did, and her heart was full of suspicions.

She didn't understand why Reinhardt was buried in the Drifting Cemetery if he was a Knight of Kalia, and why Torrett chose him.

You know, the princess of Kalia has no special relationship with Torret.

Moreover, the name Reinhardt seemed to be the one who appeared in the legend, the one who had a decisive battle with [Star Crusher General] Latan in the Weeping Dunes of Galid.

Could that person really be him?

puff--

Reinhardt galloped past on Torret, the tip of his spear piercing through the corpses of several hybrids like skewers.

It has a tail and scales on its body, and a pair of shed wings on its back. The huge hatchet in its hand makes a tinkling sound like a wind chime.

Which one is this?

He couldn't remember anymore, but he had killed quite a few hybrids along the way and made a small profit of runes.

Originally, he had been adhering to the principle of being as fast as possible and had no intention of getting entangled with these guys, but unfortunately, these bastards were looking for death, shooting around with their small bows.

In order to prevent Irena from getting hurt, he had no choice but to accept their gift (Rune) with reluctance.

It’s definitely not because I was high from killing, absolutely not.

But they soon escaped the pursuit range of the crazy hybrids. Those guys seemed to be afraid of something and did not dare to cross the 38th parallel.

The towering and magnificent city of Moren in the distance gradually grew larger in their sight.

He could also guess the reason, which was nothing more than the golem guards stationed in front of Moren City.

Whether used as a siege weapon or a puppet to defend a fortress, that thing is an extremely terrifying existence.

Just like now.

The golem guard standing like a guard in front of Moren City discovered their presence, and with the energy delivered by the core, the huge golem was driven.

Like a rusty gear, it stiffly and slowly raised its crumbling gray rock arm, slowly pulled the golem's bow, and aimed a thick black stone arrow with pyroxene magic at them.

Boom——

The moment the bowstring was released, the golem's bow made a muffled sound, and at the same time, the arrow was shot out at a speed that broke the sound barrier.

"Damn! It's such a hassle not having weapons with me!"

Seeing the flying arrow, Reinhardt couldn't help but curse and quickly pulled Torret's reins to change direction.

The arrow almost grazed their bodies as they flew past. They could hear the whistling sound of the wind, and then the ground behind them suddenly exploded.

The dissipated impact caused Torrett to sway for a few seconds, and Irena was so scared that she quickly hugged Reinhardt's waist.

"...Lord Rhine, what happened?"

"It's nothing. There was just a strong wind that blew some rocks off the rock wall and onto the ground. It's okay."

He said this, but he also contacted Melina privately.

"Melina, please do me a favor and let me use the pyroxene Kris."

"it is good."

Melina's voice sounded faintly in his body as she gave a very concise answer.

That's right, Melina was attached to him at this moment, or rather, that's what Melina had been doing since the moment they started working together.

Otherwise, how could he bring her to the Royal City of Rodel at the foot of the Golden Tree?

Immediately afterwards, azure light particles emanated from Reinhardt's body surface. These light particles gradually gathered on his right hand, and within a moment, a golden tree-style pyroxene dagger appeared in his hand.

At the same time, the second black stone arrow also attacked.

Topps force field!

Reinhardt swung the dagger, and a light blue magic ripple suddenly spread across his body.

The incoming magic arrow seemed to match the frequency of the magic ripples, and immediately bypassed the ripples and shot to the side.

Long——

The thick and large arrow pierced the ground, splashing a lot of mud.

As expected, everything related to prayer and magic can be distorted by the force field studied by Teacher Tops, even arrows are no exception.

With the protection of Tops' force field, Reinhardt was fearless and immediately raised the reins to let Torret start accelerating.

Once again, it transformed into a wisp of breeze and quickly rushed towards the gate of Moren City.

It's not that he can't deal with the golem guard. On the contrary, he has many ways to destroy the broken stone, but he can't do that.

Putting aside whether Irena can withstand his heat, the most important thing is that this golem guard exists to deter those hybrids.

If this thing is really destroyed, I don't know how many hybrid armies will rush towards the city of Moren. It is estimated that they will be hybrids from the entire Weeping Peninsula, so we can't do that under any circumstances.

What's more, after he cleaned up the city of Moren, he still needed this thing to defend the city.

Torret rushed all the way, no longer having to worry about the arrows. He passed by the feet of the golem guards and quickly rushed into the city of Moren.

"Huh, this is really troublesome..."

Reinhardt wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.

To be honest, it was the first time he found it so difficult to protect something, when destroying it was so easy.

I feel it would be more satisfying to let him fight with Latarn.

-------------------------------------

Afterwards, Torret was called back and he took Irena on the elevator to the upper level of Moren City.

But as the elevator slowly rose, a strange smell gradually filled the nasal cavity.

The smell was so unpleasant that Reinhardt frowned slightly.

The moment the elevator arrived, a strong burnt smell hit us in the face, and the scene that came into view was so tragic that the word "miserable" was not enough to describe it.

Traces of battle were visible everywhere, and the bodies of the soldiers stationed in the city lay scattered at the feet. The scene before them was nothing short of hellish.

The bodies of countless soldiers and residents piled up like mountains in the open space in the city. The overwhelming stench and countless flies made this place a dead city.

At the top of the pile of corpses was a huge torture device. A man who looked like an aristocrat was tied to it. His legs were broken and his jaw seemed to be torn off. There was a flame burning underneath, making a sizzling sound.

Not only he, but even Irena could smell the stench and immediately held onto the wall and vomited.

The kind that almost makes you vomit bile.

The rebellious hybrids stood in a circle, seemingly holding some kind of ritual, and the sacrifices were probably these residents and soldiers.

However, the battle above seemed to have not stopped yet, and the sound of swords clashing could still be heard.

"...Lai, Lord Rhine, what exactly happened here?"

"It's nothing. It's just that the heroes stationed in the city of Moren died together with those rebellious hybrids." Reinhardt said softly.

He did not tell Irena the truth. Sometimes a white lie is more important than the truth.

However, his gaze towards the groups of hybrids gradually became deeper.

"Melina, I have a task for you. Help protect Miss Irena's safety."

Along with the appearance of blue light, Melina's figure reappeared, and he handed the pyroxene Chris in his hand back to Melina.

Melina looked at the dagger in her hand, then raised her head to look at Reinhardt and asked, "...What about you?"

"Me? I'm going to meet these beasts."

A slight sneer appeared on Reinhardt's lips, and he strode towards the courtyard of Moren City.

He did not reject or oppose fighting and war.

Because this is the operating rule of the border area, fighting is always the main theme, and if you want to get everything, you have to conquer it with your fists.

But as a human being, he could not accept such an act of massacre.

He naturally knew that the hybrids were abused as slaves, and it was right for them to want revenge, but what about the innocent residents living on the Weeping Peninsula?

What does this matter have to do with them?

So, whether it is double standards or any other reasons, it doesn’t matter.

He is a human being. No matter how humans fight each other, it is just a dispute among humans. He cannot accept being treated so cruelly by alien beings like this.

It is even more impossible to look at this matter from the perspective of a hybrid.

His arrival was also discovered by the group of hybrids who were performing the ceremony.

Those guys turned around one after another, some raised their weapons high, and some smashed their axes to the ground with a bang. They looked as if they were demonstrating to him, and as if they were venting their inner excitement and hatred.
