Chapter 733 - No Elyos are born to die

eight months of August.

three star.

Okcheon Port.

On the fifth day after the typhoon passed.

Okcheon Port, which had been quiet for a while, rang the bell announcing impending danger.

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding-!

The people who worked at the port stopped working and looked at Baekri-ha with anxious eyes.

After a few days of silence, it seems that the Demon God's fleet left Sacheonpo again.

Before long, the Elyos and the masters of the sects gathered at the dock.

Unlike the first award match last year, these are spleen faces.

It was only natural that more than a thousand Elyos died in just one campaign.

This time, the risk of death has increased several times because it has been reduced by twice as much.

The faces of the Elyos and clan masters preparing to board were dark.

After a while, thirty-three ships left the port.

When the ship departed, the remaining humans in Okcheon Port also evacuated one by one.

It was because it was impossible to block the Demon God's fleet with thirty-three ships.

The Elyos and sect masters who remained in Okcheon Port did not stop the humans from leaving.

In half an hour (1 hour), Okcheon Port became a ghost town.

The inn owners left the doors open to keep an eye on the Elyos and the masters of the sect, but the owners of restaurants, bars, and shops sealed the entrances with planks and left.

Due to that wind, the remaining Elyos and sect masters had to eat dry meals.

captain ship.

The Yeonjeokha, standing tall on the bow, glanced left and right.

Thirty-three ships caught my eye.

It was an absurdly small number considering the fleet of Demon Gods that had flocked in pitch black.

“How many ships does the demon god say?”

The silver-haired beauty adjutant Blaze, who followed him like a shadow, answered right away.

“It is said to be one hundred and twenty.”

“Four times as many as us?”

"That's right."

“The land will be next after this water fight, right?”

“It will.”

“I guess the General Staff doesn’t know the truth? Am I right?”

“Why do you think so?”

Blaze stared at the jeokha.

Prior to her answer, Yeon Jeok-ha wondered why she said such a thing.

“Why? That's why I insist on this extreme water war. If my sister had been in command of this war, she would have smeared it on land.”

“When you say older sister, are you referring to the Bingsulhwa of Cheonjijong?”

"yes."

“I know that the Ice and Snow Fellows subdued the Taesangjong and the Mugeukjong in Bulgwigok. However, in terms of size and strength, the Demon God's forces are far superior to those of the sect. No matter how good is ice and snow, you can't overcome the overwhelming difference in strength.”

“You mean that the Demon God army is overwhelmingly stronger than the Elyos army?”

“Hmm, it’s not like that, I just meant that the demon army is overwhelmingly stronger than the clan.”

"I'm talking about the army of the Elyos and the army of the Demon Gods. Why is the sect appearing here?"

Blaze couldn't refute when the jeokha dug in sharply.

Blaze, who was standing there with an embarrassed face, glanced at the jeokha.

'what? I thought he was an idiot who excelled at his inaction, but he used his brain quite a bit?'

She compared the forces of the sect and the demons in order to cut down the Ice and Snow Emperors, but she did not go over it.

He's right.

Compared to the Elyos army, the Demon God's army is not overwhelmingly strong.

If that were the case, more Elyos would have been mobilized.

Of course, the Demon God's forces are stronger than Heaven's expectations, so they are being pushed back.

She immediately turned her words around.

“By the way, did the General Staff ask if you don’t know how to spell? Among the creatures of this world, there is probably no one better at fighting than the General Staff.”

At Blaze's words, he laughed.

That smile must have irritated Blaze's eyes a little.

she asked with her straight face.

“Why are you laughing?”

“No, it reminds me of someone I know.”

“… … .”

Blaze narrowed her eyes.

He seems to be thinking of Ice and Snow Fellows again.

She was about to say something, but she said, 'Who's the best?'

When the matchmaking Blaze didn't react, she continued.

"If you're that good at fighting, wouldn't it be better to fight on land?"

“The General Staff will have a plan.”

“What is the plan?”

“I think of it as killing the snake by striking its head.”

Yeonjeokha frowned at her.

The snake's head that Blaze spoke of must mean a demon.

“Does it have to be done under Baekri?”

“If the chief of staff had chosen Baek Li-ha, he would have said it because it was the best.”

“Damn it. Are you back to square one?”

When Yeonjunha grumbled, Blaze spoke as if explaining.

“Didn’t Grand Master always say that using one’s brain should be left to smart people?”

“It was.”

“The General Staff is so outstanding that it is called the goddess of wisdom among the Elyos. You can trust us.”

"It's because I don't have faith because I beat Elyos and people in a water fight with no answers."

“Still, the General Staff will lead this war to victory.”

“You mean you just have to win?”

“As with other things, especially in war, the outcome is important. Isn't there a guarantee that there will be fewer victims than before the water fight just because she competes in track and field?”

“It will depend on who is in command.”

“Does Grand Master have a lot of faith in Ice and Snow?”

“My sister is the best of the best. There is nothing in the universe that can surpass her.”

A little while ago, Blaze said, 'Among the creatures in this world, there is no better strategist than the General Staff'.

'There is no existence that can surpass sister in the universe' was a refutation to that.

A bitter smile spread across Blaise's face.

"I think I know how much the Grand Master's trust in you is."

She pretended to hand over her blessings and attributed everything to the grand master's personal feelings.

I was not a meticulous person enough to see through things like dating, so I smiled and moved on.

The tug-of-war between the two ended only when a fleet of demons appeared at the end of the horizon.

Yeonjeokha, who was staring at the Demon God's fleet, murmured.

“I heard that the damage from the typhoon was great, but the boat has increased.”

“It seems that three iron ships were hijacked.”

At her words, Yeonjeokha carefully inspected the Demon God's fleet.

indeed! Between the roughly made wooden ships, three steel wires were showing off their mighty majesty.

After a while, a black flag was raised on the iron wire that approached a distance of about 300 feet (about 900 meters).

On the flag was a portrait of a beauty with two huge horns.

An exclamation flowed from Blaze's mouth after confirming that.

"ah! It looks like the demon will finally come out.”

He stared intently at the black flag fluttering on the iron wire.

It was certainly the portrait of Isabella of Medina that was drawn on the flag.

The iron wire with the demon's flag proudly took the lead.

After that, a hundred and nineteen ships lined up in two long lines like seagull wings.

It's a different shape from the last one.

Yeonjeokha turned his gaze to the Elyos command ship.

Just then, two red flags were raised side by side on the mast of the command ship.

“What does that mean?”

When the jeokha pointed at the command ship, Blaze replied.

“It’s a wedge formation.”

As soon as she finished her words, the ships on the left and right fell behind the captain's ship.

Yeon Jeok-ha, who had been quietly watching the development of allied ships, muttered involuntarily.

“Isn’t that pretty blatant?”

“Please think of it as your expectations for Grand Master.”

Despite being confronted with the demon's iron wire, Blaze remained calm.

It's not just the devil riding on the iron wire of the demon god.

Her servants, high-ranking demons, would be crowded on that iron wire.

“But are you okay? While I fight the demons, those iron wire demons will invade.”

It wasn't that the captain's line was filled with particularly outstanding Elyos.

No, according to what I watched, that Blaze was the only special Elyos.

In reality, most of the strong Elyos are concentrated on the Command Line.

The captain's ship's strength could not be said to be greatly superior to that of her other ships.

Blaze looked at Yeonjeokha with a slightly surprised face.

Contrary to their noble appearance, Elyos live by orders and die by orders.

The greatest honour for them is to die fighting.

For that reason, on the battlefield, he acts as instructed, regardless of whether he is good or bad.

Blaze, who lived in the way of the Elyos, felt strange at the words of the Grand Master.

“Are you worried about me?”

"yes. It's not just the demon riding on the iron wire. So are the other ships.”

"As long as Grand Master kills the demon, I don't care what happens."

"It doesn't matter what happens? If possible, I have to survive.”

“There is no such thing as ‘if only’. My wish is to die on the battlefield. What is the Grand Master's wish?"

“your wish to die on the battlefield? What dog-like wishes do you have?”

Blaze's heart, which had been slightly warmed up by her words, 'dog-like wish', cooled down.

No matter how brilliant she is, she seems to be unable to help with the inherent human inferiority.

She dismissed the height of glory as a dog's wish!

If it wasn't for the Grand Master who holds the success or failure of this war, I wouldn't have let it go.

“Master, please be careful with your expressions. To die on the battlefield is the highest honour for us Elyos. It is difficult for humans to understand.”

“The most pitiful thing in this world is to die on the battlefield. Do you know why I want to fight a demon? I'm doing it to prevent such a pitiful death. Why are you at war with the demons? To die a heroic death?”

Blaze couldn't answer.

He never thought about why he would risk his life in a war against the demons.

Until now, it was 'there are demons, so we fight'.

And dying in the war against the demons was the greatest honour for the Elyos.

But the Grand Master said something different.

'Deaths on the battlefield are pitiful, and they fight to prevent such deaths?'

I have a feeling that it's ―very slightly―better than the Elyos' view of life and death.

“Thank you for your concern.”

Blaze wanted to end the conversation with that.

She was frustrated, but he didn't want to wrestle with the Grand Master, putting the Elyos' view of life and death at the forefront.

It would not be possible to change the sound of racial differences into one or two words.

Yeon Jeok-ha said while staring at the approaching iron wire.

“I hope you die in this war I hope not. Because no Elyos were born to die.”

“… … .”

Blaze was lightly shocked when he heard that there were no Elyos born to die.

His words were far from the teachings of the Elyos, but the moment I heard them, my heart skipped a beat.

She sneakily peeked at the Grand Master's face.

I've never thought of him as wise as a human being.

In fact, watching him by his side, he wasn't even conspicuously intelligent.

But I don't know why he speaks so well that his heart beats so fast.

A glimmer of light flashed in the young man's eyes.

At the bow of the iron ship, the Medina Isaela stood upright.

The corner of the mouth of Medina Isaela, who had just discovered the dripping drop, moved up slightly.

The time has finally come.

As I repeated his name in my head, an indescribable feeling came over me.

She hurriedly made up her mind, kicked off her bow, and soared into the sky.
