Angie kicked the knight who grabbed Uni with all his might.

“Ugh!”

The knight’s knee was suddenly bent, and the hand holding Uni loosened. Uni quickly shook him off without missing a moment.

As Uni jumped off, Angie grabbed her hand and started running.

“Catch them!”

The knights shouted after them, and the children escaped through the narrow bars of the wall.

While the knights blocked by the iron bars were struggling, Uni shouted while still running.

“Mr. Lynn!”

Uni hurriedly called Lynn.

“Mr. Lyyynn!”

In the meantime, there was a creaking noise from behind. Angie looked back with an ominous premonition and clenched his teeth when he saw the knights crossing the iron bars.

‘What do we do? Where should we go?’

If we go on like this, we will be caught.

The moment his heart became desperate, Angie suddenly choked.

“Cough! Ugh!”

The sudden shortness of breath caused him to collapse without realizing it.

He had been moving too hard since earlier. His lungs, which reached their limit, were hurting like they were tearing apart.

“Hey!”

Uni was startled and grabbed Angie’s hand. Angie breathed heavily and shook her hand away. He meant to let her go alone.

But it was already too late. The knights who had been chasing them snatched Uni again.

“L-let go of me!”

Uni, whose body was lifted, struggled and resisted. Angie also grabbed at the knight, but to no avail.

Uni suddenly felt the ground ringing as she resisted with her whole body. It was the sound of horseshoes.

When Uni knew that the Eastern Knights had arrived, she raised his voice again.

“Mr. Ly—!”

The knight quickly covered Uni’s mouth. At that, Uni bit his hand that covered her mouth tightly and shouted again.

“Mr. Lynn! Over here! Your Grace!”

“This damn…!”

The anxious knight raised his hand high as if trying to hit Uni. At that moment, there was the sound of the wind cutting, and a flash of light lodged in his hand.

The knight turned around to see what had flown, and was startled to find out later that his hand had been pierced by an arrow.

“Uwaaakh!”

The knight collapsed in pain.

Uni looked in the direction the arrow was flying.

The moment she saw it, she felt relieved. Lynn, who was holding a bow, was staring terrifyingly at this side.

“Eastern…!”

The knights who were one step behind saw Lynn and hurriedly turned around.

The two knights abandoned their fallen comrade and turned around, but Lynn did not pursue them. He simply fired two arrows in a row.

Pak! The arrows that flew out with the sound pierced through the shoulders and legs of the knights on the run.

The Eastern Knights subdued the fallen Southern Knights, while Lynn got off his horse and ran to Uni.

“Are you alright? Why are you here all by yourself?”

Lynn raised Uni and asked. When asked kindly, Uni unknowingly choked up and bit her lips tightly.

Meanwhile, the Eastern Knights raised Angie. Angie, who was suddenly supported, looked at the Eastern Duke with a confused mood.

He was very different from the rumors. And it wasn’t just the Eastern Duke that was different from the rumors.

With the feeling of standing in front of the cliff, Angie looked at the Southern Knights who were captured by the Eastern Knights.

Looking back, it was a strange experience.

Being chased by his father’s people, he was relieved to meet the Eastern Duke, whom he had never spoken to before.

The Eastern Duke, famous for his martial arts, was more polite than expected.

And Marquis Ruber, who was known to have a favorable personality, was rather…

Angie secretly bit his lip and looked at his father, who stood in the distance.

However, Marquis Ruber was completely ignorant of his younger son’s gaze and was focused only on his own daughter.

The Marquis carefully observed Rena held by the Eastern Duke. Rena slumped like a corpse, and her limbs shook as the Eastern Duke moved.

‘Is she dead?’

The death of an uninvited guest named Rena Ruber. It was something the Marquis had been looking for.

But when he thought that Rena was going to die, I felt empty.

He remembered that kid slaughtering the dead with a whip just before. That splendid appearance was good for the eyes, and he wanted to brag more about it, so he couldn’t believe she died like this.

The Marquis laughed bitterly when he realized that he wanted Rena to survive.

Human beings are so simple. They change their positions and change their minds depending on the situation.

They struggle to live like that.

The Marquis smiled a little more as his situation was once again bleak.

He was heartbroken. He did everything to survive, but he was still a human being. He had a heart, he had feelings.

It was still the same now.

The Marquis felt sorry for the fallen Rena. So he decided. If she died, he would sincerely mourn her. And if she survived, he’d really cherish her this time.

The Marquis was already thinking about how to bring his daughter back in.

When Ruber’s eyes wandered for a moment.

The rift raged again, and a northern knight leapt out of the Tomb.

He went out alone, and as soon as he saw people, he shouted.

“Everyone, evacuate!”

At the knight’s cry, the people outside were clamoring, not knowing what to make of the sittation. When the people reacted slowly, the knight shouted again.

“The dead are coming!”

Immediately after the knight shouted, black and red knights poured out at once from the rift. When they came out, they were divided by color and split left and right. The knights ran in a large circle to turn the horse’s head, and soon formed a line and stood toward the rift.

“All soldiers, stand by.”

Eura, who stood in the front, gave the order.

“From now on, we will seal off Doom Palace and block the dead.”

Eura’s voice fell heavily. The knights followed him regardless of east or north.

As the knights were ready for battle, Lynn, who was taking care of Rena, was also on the horse again.

Eastern and Northern Dukes stood side by side in front of the rift, and their knights surrounded the rift.

A black shadow fluttered in the red crack. The knights outside recalled the first day they opened the entrance to the Tomb.

However, the thoughts of the knights from within were different. They already knew that the crowd coming now was incomparable to that day.

The red of the rift exploded and the dead poured out, and the Northern Duke’s slash slashed through the carcasses of the dead.
