Knights and Magic Wand
Chapter 603 - 603 284 The Guiding Spirit_2

603: Chapter 284: The Guiding Spirit_2 603: Chapter 284: The Guiding Spirit_2 To the north of Baldim, the Undead Domain is firmly sealed off, Your Highness, the two armies are now separated, and General Trolsa cannot send reinforcements through the encirclement of the undead army.

What’s worse is that the undead army appearing to the north of Baldim County could invade south at any time!” Angor urgently reported on the predicament in the north.

This is a nice way to put it; in reality, even if there were a road here, the Kingdom Army in Mamor County is unable to muster troops to come to the aid.

The King’s Guard who came to Kilmerton with him were ordered by the king to escort Princess Ines back to the kingdom.

Ines looked at the Dusk Blood Guard who bowed before her, and understood her father’s intention without asking.

She nodded slightly to express her gratitude, but she said to them: “Leave one knight behind, and the rest of the Forbidden Guards please return to my father’s side and ensure his safety.

I will leave if absolutely necessary, but not now.”

“Your Highness!

Please return to Orland, it’s too dangerous here!” The Sea Eagle Knights beside her couldn’t help but advise.

Ines chuckled softly, tilted her small head, and looked at them with azure eyes.

“Have my knights lost the courage to protect me?”

“!”

“No!

I swear to the gods, we will defend Your safety to the death!!”

The young and impassioned West Bay Knights felt their blood boiling.

They were all ashamed and blushing due to the Sealing Lord’s provocation, swearing never to let the princess suffer any harm.

They are either the youngest of their family, illegitimate children, or warriors of civilian origin; if not for the princess’s appointment and favor, they would never have had the opportunity to become esteemed Royal Knights.

Because of the war in Magya Territory, they now possess their own fiefdoms, with family lineages beginning anew.

They’ve long regarded the princess as more important than life itself, unable to tolerate such doubt.

Several Dusk Blood Guards looked at each other, troubled by Princess Ines’s decision.

But the little princess left one Pegasus Knight as a final compromise, successfully convincing them not to insist further.

After all, even though Ines is highly esteemed, she is only a princess; her claim to the throne is very low.

The Crown Prince, the second Prince, and many of the king’s younger sons are in the country.

Even if misfortune befell Princess Ines, it wouldn’t affect the kingdom’s political situation.

One King’s Guard stayed by the princess’s side, while the others bowed to Ines and Baron Leon in the hall, then hurriedly departed.

After meeting the Pegasus Knights sent by her father, Ines looked helplessly at Leon seated in the hall’s forefront.

She smiled bitterly and said, “It seems we have no choice.”

Leon, who had been quietly listening, nodded and looked at the remaining Dusk Blood Guard.

“Sir Salamat, what is this Dark Gate that Lord Angor mentioned?”

Honored that the renowned Snake Slayer remembered him, the King’s Guard explained: “Although His Majesty did not punish us, this oversight is indeed our fault… We did not detect any ambush around the battlefield, yet just when victory was near, circular dark shadows appeared across the land.

The enemy seemed to appear out of thin air, catching our forces off guard.

After the battle, the magicians were unable to deal with the Dark Gate which spawned countless evil entities.”

Leon’s heart tightened.

Without Lola’s reminder, he sensed that this phenomenon was definitely not similar to simple magic transmission.

“I’ve disrupted their plans, perhaps those guys couldn’t wait any longer…” Lola’s voice sounded with resignation.

Leon leaned back in his chair, lost in thought.

Undoubtedly, the souls harvested by the clouds are far from enough to accumulate the power needed to connect the netherworld’s unknown different plane to this land.

Successfully merging two different worlds with Great Magic requires unimaginable magic power.

My interference with Lola’s actions further delayed the expansion of the Undead Domain, the altars divided into Cloud Domains, suffering from the constant loss of blocked soul streams, like a pool with a hole cut open.

Now, the sudden attack by the vampire army, coupled with the severe setback faced by Lydwen III, could be the enemy’s realization of obstructive power acting against them.

Sir Angor’s concern about the undead army in Baldim County is likely not just a possibility, but inevitable.

That vampire monster… recalling the truth Azeryan informed, Leon sighed internally.

Since that vampire monster went berserk and retreated due to an accident, failing to complete the task of the one behind it.

Then, another undead force that defeated the large Orland Army will certainly head south soon to replace that vampire baron in eliminating this group of persistent disruptors.

As Ines said, they now have only one path to take.

Although escaping north through the underground dwarven tunnels is still an option.

However, the secret mine tunnel entrance leading to Rolannar is not within Orland territory.

But is located beneath the Sobonitz Domain, which was part of the Pope Court’s land thousands of years ago.

If we miss this opportunity, it will be hard to reclaim it…

The northern undead army could move south at any time, or maybe is already on its way south.

Decisions must be made quickly.

Leon raised his head and called for all the military leaders to gather in the hall for discussions.

…

The Alliance soldiers arrived one after another, and as the two dwarf kings took the specially added seats at the forefront for them, Ines surveyed the hall from her seat on the side.
