“Strategist Kwak?”

Drakan stared at Kwak-Jung, still startled by his sudden appearance .

“Even though it’s nice that you brought reinforcement, you were given orders to make a defensive line in order to…”

“Geez!”

Kwak-Jung cut off Drakan’s words and raged .

“ . . . !”

“Come on! If I tell you to do something, just do it! Okay?”

“ . . . Hm?”

“What position do I have? I’m the strategist!”

“W-Well…”

“If I tell you to do something, just do it already! Why am I the strategist? It’s because Milord trusts me to make decisions, am I wrong?”

Kwak-Jung was a little bit angry right now .

Even though Kang Chul-In somewhat came to trust him, the other officials of Laputa still didn’t fully trust him .

Not only was Kwak-Jung formerly a gangster, but his happy-go-lucky behavior also didn’t fit in well with the other serious subordinates' personalities .

Hmph! I know, but…

This time, it’s different!

Even though he might be unsure at any other time, he was very confident right now .

“General Drakan . ”

“Yes?”

“You know what this is even if I don’t show you…”

Kwak-Jung pointed at his waist, where the Soul Core of Laputa was .

This meant that currently, Kwak-jung had the highest authority and position among all of the soldiers and officers .

“Kuhum…”

Drakan coughed .

Although he wasn’t satisfied with what Kwak-Jung was saying, he couldn’t speak his thoughts all willy-nilly towards someone with a higher position .

“God, dammit!”

Kwak-Jung raged again at Drakan’s half-hearted behavior .

“Commander of Laputa, General Drakan . Hear my words . ”

He decided to use the tactic he did against James, which was to put forward his position .

“As the temporary leader of Laputa, I order you---”

“ . . . !”

“Go right now, and fight against the enemies that are coming . I will not listen to disagreements . I will punish you by execution if you don’t follow these orders . ”

Drakan, hearing this, 

“Subordinate Drakan will follow your orders!”

Kneeled down on one knee, and swore to follow Kwak-Jung’s orders .

“Hmph . ”

Kwak-Jung was aware that Drakan wasn’t following his orders, but rather the man that Kang Chul-In had temporarily put in charge .

“Well, who cares? As long as we win, it doesn’t matter . ”

After Kwak-Jung complained to himself,

“Go, Drakan! I choose you!”

He pushed Drakan forward to the front lines, to fight along with Lucia .

What…? Why do I feel annoyed all of a sudden… .

For an instant Drakan got annoyed, but calmed himself down and prepared for battle against the Anatolian soldiers .

Coincidentally taking 20 million dollars as spoils of war, Kang Chul-In rode atop the Altaica, and immediately dashed towards the Bittermoon territory’s castle walls .

He didn’t worry about the Spectre Knights .

After a certain point in time, or if they took too much damage, they would transform into black currents before being sucked back into the item he wore .

Daughter… . !

Instead, Kang Chul-In focused on Arshelly who was on his back .

Endure for a little while longer .

Although Kang Chul-In wanted to make Arshelly lie down and rest, they were in the middle of a battlefield . It was impossible to have such leisure when the enemies were hot on his trail .

He had no time to even stop and drink a potion .

-Allahu Akbar!

Whenever he felt like he would have a chance to catch his breath, the suicide bombers would get dangerously close .

These god-damned bastards…

Kang Chul-In gritted his teeth .

I will erase you from the map one day .

Even though he was alone this time, next time would be different . As long as he was able to firmly plant his roots in the Ishtar region, it wouldn’t be too difficult to destroy their territory .

An escape route…

After managing to jump on the castle walls, Kang Chul-In looked for a suitable escape route .

It would be suicide to go back to where he had come from .

Outside of the Bittermoon territory, the Anatolian army had surrounded him, so it would be impossible to run away if he chose the wrong direction .

There!

Kang Chul-In’s gaze headed west .

The Bittermoon territory’s west gate seemed like quite a suitable escape route .

Since the path was quite narrow and it was connected to a mountainous region it would be easier for him to run .

It’s good, but…

But Kang Chul-In didn’t immediately run west .

If there is a trap or an ambush there… I will probably die .

Kang Chul-In’s instincts warned him .

Or rather than instinct, it was experience that he had gained from fighting so much .

According to his experience in a place like that,

. . . Lee Gong-Myung, that damned bastard .

Lee Gong-Myung’s traps were planted there .

It hasn't been too long since this scrimmage started . If someone was able to check the nearby region of the Bittermoon territory and set up a trap in this short of a time-span… Lee Gong-Myung, only someone like him could do that .

Although anyone could think of a plan like this, they would need a lot more time than Lee Gong-Myung .

There’s no choice .

Even though he looked around, there were no other escape routes like the one in the west .

Even though he would risk dying, he had to go west, or it would only be a matter of time before he was caught by the Anatolian army .

He had to break through, even though there were traps there .

“Let’s go!”

Kang Chul-In urged the Altaica .

-Krrr!

The Altaica started to run across the castle walls . Their destination was the west gate of the Bittermoon territory .

“Great Khalifa…”

A soldier reported .

“Our elites . . . And general Abubakar… have been wiped out . . . ! All by the hands of Overlord Kang Chul-In…!”

“What!?”

Bang!

With a large noise .

Crack!

The armrest on the throne that Baruk Al-Yusuf was sitting on broke .

“They’ve lost? The assassins and suicide bombers that I spent so long training, lost?”

“Y-Yes, great Khalifa . ”

“The guards, how about the guards?”

“T-That… . ”

“ . . . ?”

“They’ve also been wiped out by his Spectre Knights . ”

“What…!?”

Baruk Al-Yusuf found it difficult to calm his rage .

“200, all dead? To just one person? And even Abubakar died?”

“G-General Abubakar was apparently slain due to the huge bounty on his head…”

“Kang Chul-In… is this guy even human…?”

Baruk Al-Yusuf found it difficult to believe such unexpected news .

“Hu… . ”

Baruk Al-Yusuf sighed .

“So… What’s going on now?”

“Apparently he’s on the castle walls, heading towards the west gate . ”

“West?”

“Yes, great Khalifa . ”

“Ho…”

At this good news, Baruk Al-Yusuf’s expression turned better .

Even though it was terrible losing his elites, he hadn’t lost Kang Chul-In yet .

After all,

“Lee Gong-Myung… he even predicted that my elites would fail . He even knew where Kang Chul-In would run towards…”

All of these were apart of Lee Gong-Myung’s calculations .

“Lee Gong-Myung… if he predicted everything correctly, this is the prime opportunity to catch Kang Chul-In . Lee Gong-Myung… Lee Gong-Myung! What a smart man . He’s seeing through Kang Chul-In’s actions and patterns so easily…”

“But if this is the case… I guess I’ll have to go and see myself . ”

Murmuring to himself, Baruk Al-Yusuf stood up from his throne .
