I’ll Live My Second Life! - Chapter 190

　While preparing the horse, Gerus gives instructions to pursue the fleeing apprentice knights.

"But Gerus, isn't it difficult to catch everyone who escaped?"

　Meanwhile, a man who is an adjutant points out to Gerus.

　This operation was to capture all the apprentice knights and bring them back, dispose of the villagers, and erase all witnesses.

　However, no matter how many there are, it is difficult to catch all 21 people who escaped on a scale of 50 people.

　Gerus nods easily to the point.

"Well, that's right."

"eh……?"

　The adjutant clearly thought there was a way to capture everyone.

　However, Gerus says with a smirk that is somewhat unrealistic.

"I can't help it, what I ran away. Failure is failure. I have to divide it. After that, how much we enjoy it, isn't it? As many cheeky apprentice knights as possible Catch the kid. This is our goal from now on. "

"have fun……"

　To be honest, the adjutant couldn't understand the word.

　Even the villagers did it because the strategy was decided in advance, but it didn't feel good. Even with this strategy itself, I can't find the meaning of doing something like this.

　When I was given money, trained, and finally put it into action, it was such a job.

"Yeah, you guys can enjoy it too. The apprentice knight kid who thinks he has a bright future is caught and dropped by our slaves, and the idiot who resists dies. It's fun, isn't it? "

　And the leader of this unit, Gerus, was a human being on the employer's side.

　Even though he is an adjutant, his position is different ...

"Yes ..."

　As long as I got the money, I had no choice but to listen to this man and move.

　Fees glanced in the shadow of the forest so that they could be seen by the other party on purpose.

　There are many opponents. It is bad if the strategy is carefully planned. In particular, it is necessary to earn time until the two cognacs in the eastern dormitory meet.

"Hehe, stupid kid. Are you willing to fight us?"

　The moment I found it, a smile lit up on Gerus's face.

　At Gerus's direction, the soldiers start chasing Fees. It's fast probably because I'm trained. It squeezes at the same speed as the lightly dressed fees.

　The number was just the number, and the feeling of oppression was amazing.

　Fees moved to a certain distance from the soldiers, moving to some extent hidden by trees so that the numbers would not be revealed.

　Of course, it moves so as to hold down a straight road in the forest. It was partly because of the original purpose of not letting horses pass, but it was also an invitation to the other party.

"Hey, go around in advance with cavalry"

　As intended, the soldiers on horseback are instructed by Gerus.

　Hyrule sensed the footsteps of the horse, although Fees could not hear the instructions.

"It's coming!"

"Yup……!"

　It can be heard by the fees. The sound of a horse running here.

　This is the cornerstone of the strategy. Tension runs on the faces of Fees.

　Fee shouted as the footsteps approached them.

"Kuinu! Slad! Please!"

　Only three people, Fee, Hyrule, and Lemie, were moving so that they could see each other.

　Kuinu and Slad were ambushed.

　A rope suddenly appears at the end of the path of the horses running on the road. One was tied to a tree. And the other is owned by Kuinu and Slad.

"What !?"

"Wow!"

　Unable to kill the momentum, the leading horse gets caught in it.

　Some horses broke down in a potato-like manner, and soldiers fell off the horses.

　To be honest, this operation was a bet.

　If you are cornered by infantry without using cavalry, you will not be able to use the rope set in the forest. I've prepared some ropes, but it worked because the enemy unsuspectingly invited me.

　But it worked, so I have nothing to say.

　The front is blocked, and the horses and soldiers in the back step on the tatara.

"now!"

　Don't miss it, Fees hit the bow.

　An arrow sticks into the stranded horses. Animals are innocent, but I can't say that. From the woods, shoot arrows one after another and drop horses.

　But after all, there are only three bows. It's too much to drop them all.

　However, Fee remembered Hyrule's words before the operation.

"Horse is an expensive creature. It's probably no exception to the opponent. Not having all 50 horses is valuable to the opponent, so you don't have to drop them all."

　Hyrule affirmed.

"Maybe if you drop half, your opponent will give up your horse."

　Fees desperately hit the bow while being close to the infantry.

　Eventually the horse turned over and went down.

"Hooray!"

"Yup!"

　Lemie shouts. Stopping the horse seemed to be successful.

　Gerus lowered his horse and then went with an angry face.

"Hey, those fucking kid. The horse is expensive because of the troublesome movement ... Hey, the horse will go down and hunt down on foot. If you resist violently, kill it ...!"

　The returning soldiers get off the horses, and the soldiers who have been struck by Fees also get up and start chasing Fees on foot. Although some were stuck in the fall, the numbers were quite high.

"Heath!"

"Are you okay?"

　Kuinu and Slad, who had the rope stretched, join Fee and others.

　I was close to the soldiers. From here was the crucial moment.
