Forehead……
ah……
Ekado felt dizzy and his vision was flashing with golden light, making him feel disoriented.
"The Duke!"
"Your Grace! Help me!"
The heavily armored knights around them were torn off their horses by the goblins, and daggers pierced through the cracks in their armor, but they were not very fatal. Often, it would take hundreds of stabs to end their lives.
Oh no, Alcardo!

"Cough cough cough!" Alcardo coughed up a mouthful of foul blood.
Previous memories began to return.
Ever since that clash with the Goblin King, he has been locked in a fierce battle with him.
There are too many enemies, especially those goblin priests! They've been healing the Goblin King the whole time!
Every time Icardo inflicts a serious injury on the Goblin King, they forcibly pull him back to life, as if he were using him as a sparring partner.
His own heavy cavalry legion also charged around the goblin priests, preventing them from casting healing blessings.
However, the enemy's defenses were truly...
"Your Majesty the Duke!!!"
The screams of the heavy cavalry could be heard all around.
Ledo is right, they are the nemesis of heavy cavalry, they are torture!
The entire heavy cavalry legion is now reduced to only a dozen or so men, and they are scattered.
His adjutant died of poisoning while helping him break through the enemy lines; it was all too late…
"I had a great time today," a deep voice came from beside me.
The Goblin King examined his hand, which was glowing green, and slowly walked towards Alcardo.
The green light was the healing blessing released by the goblin priests, which restored his hand to its original state in just a moment.
He helped Alcardo up, but by then he had little strength left to fight back and could only let his opponent do as he pleased.
"I admit, you are the strongest life form I have ever encountered, and you have thoroughly proven to me the power of humanity." The Goblin King picked up his heavy axe again.
"To be honest," the Goblin King said, gazing up at the slowly rising sun at a 45-degree angle.
"I admire you, but we have different positions."
“I swear I will bury you; you are different from these mortals.”
He pointed to the heavy cavalry being ganged up on by goblins, who would have their armor removed and die in repeated humiliation.
“They are not ordinary people!” Ecardo, leaning on his longsword, weakly retorted, “They are warriors of flesh and blood.”
"Look, do you really value your glory and dignity more than your lives?" The Goblin King pressed his heavy axe against Alcardo's shoulder.
"I respect your honor only out of respect for my enemy. Close your eyes, my attack will not cause you much pain."
Icardo did not obey; he braced himself and raised his sword to face the Goblin King.
It was as if, as if it were a scene from when Tilan faced the Demon King.
“You made the wrong choice.” The Goblin King shook his head.
"A knight should die on the charge!" A final radiance ignited on Ecardo's body.
"For the glory of the Tiran family!!!"
"charge!"
...
As dawn quietly arrives, the faint light gradually brings life to the earth.
The north gate of Orvik has completely collapsed.
Trisna, trapped under the rubble, opened her eyes, and everything that had happened the night before was still vivid in her mind.
Azer used his flesh and blood to smash through the city gate and successfully opened the passage, but this also completely ignited the goblins' rage.
Their attack overwhelmed the army; only Kelyat managed to break through the encirclement with a troop of elite cavalry, and they are now presumably on their way to support Alcado.
"ah!!!!"
A scream suddenly came from afar!
A group of goblins were searching through the ruins, occasionally stabbing corpses with their daggers. Just now, a soldier had been captured and stabbed to death.
"Oh no." Trisna tried to move her body, but she couldn't get the stone on her back off.
As the goblins approached from afar, their pointed noses twitched slightly, clearly indicating that they had caught the scent of a female.
Sure enough, they located her!
Looking at the grinning goblins, she gritted her teeth, knowing full well that falling into their hands would mean a fate worse than death.
She struggled to pull the dagger from her clothes, and suddenly, she felt the rocks behind her shake.
Parker!?
She recognized the other person immediately. Parker moved the rocks aside and dragged Trisna out.
He smiled back in the faint light of dawn.
He didn't leave; he waited not far outside the city of Orvik.
When he saw Trisna again, his eyes were filled with tears.
“Trisna! I’ve thought about it for a long time, and I think… I can’t leave, at least not in such an absurd way!” Parker said, forcing himself to speak.
"Idiot! Run!" Trisna stopped Parker, while the goblins on the other side raised their spears, and some aimed their bows and arrows at Parker.
“Let’s go together!” Parker put his arm around Trisna and slowly retreated into the city.
He was certainly aware that he was being watched by a group of goblins behind him, and he knew that what he was doing was a dead end.
He had thought about all of this on his way here!
Rather than leave alone, he would prefer that it be Trisna who leaves!
"Yoo—" The eagle soared high in the air, reminding Parker that danger was imminent.
"I have so much to say to you. At least let me say it before I consider whether to leave, okay?"
The goblins behind Parker had already begun throwing spears, which landed at his feet.
The enraged goblins pounced on them instantly, brandishing knives and hurling spears wildly.
...
In a pool of blood, Trisna and Parker's hands were clasped together, spears piercing their bodies, and Parker's leg was struck by an arrow, rendering him unable to move.
The two looked at each other. Parker moved his lips slightly as if to say something, but no sound came out.
Trisna smiled...
I've always known, you idiot, I can read minds...
...
As arrows rained down from the sky, accompanied by the goblins' screams, dawn finally arrived.
"Chase the light!" Alto squatted down in front of the two men, who had already lost blood and were unconscious.
He glanced at the city defense troops rushing behind him; perhaps they could still make it, since the wound wasn't fatal.
"Very well, it saves me the trouble of leading you into darkness."
"You owe Wang a favor. Good luck, Parker."
Hmm, his name is Parker, right?
I seem to... know him? Oh well, it's just a memory from his past life.
