Chapter 25: The Reason God Forsakes Man
“Mantern and Fulster betrayed the Proclamation and led the soldiers to the mountain.
Under the escort of the Black Knight, the Queen of Lionheart stepped on the blood and the body and left."
When the bard began to sing such stories, it was already a few months after the Four Kingdoms Parliament.
On that day, too many things happened in the Parliament peaks, the truth could no longer be concealed, and the facts were learned.
The bards wrote this parliament full of betrayal and blood in poetry, singing throughout the continent.
The king of Mantern and the king of Furster fled back to their country. The fear in their hearts was difficult to erase for a long time, but they did not choose to sit and wait for death.
They all understood that war was coming and they were bound to fight, and this would be a desperate battle.
Ferster and Mantern at the same time mobilized all the soldiers to garrison at their border with Reinhardt, the Isseren Hills.
They were ready to fight to the death. Although they had lost the Saint, they had no way out.
In late spring, in the last light rain of the spring of the year.
Hillman summoned Reinhart's soldiers in the name of her king.
The armor reflected the sunlight that penetrated the clouds, and raindrops slid off the blade.
Countless soldiers stood in the drizzle, waiting for their king to announce the beginning of the war.
Hillman stood above the walls, looking down at the endless army.
She didn't say anything long, nor did she give an exciting speech.
She just raised her sword of royal power and raised it towards the sky, and the lion on the hilt seemed to be roaring loudly.
She said the only thing she wanted to say.
"This time, history will be written by Reinhardt."
Taking heavy steps, like the earth shaking, the army headed towards the Issen hills.
···
High above the city wall, Hillman looked silently at the advancing army.
Chu came from behind her, raised her cloak with one hand to cover the raindrops falling from the sky for her.
The two stood together and looked to the west.
"Your Majesty." Chu said, "I still don't understand why you let those two people go?"
The two people Chu mentioned were King Mantern and King Ferster of the Parliament Mountain. At that time, Hillman did not let Chu kill them.
But if they were killed at that time, it would have been easier for Reinhardt to unify the continent.
Hillman stood beside Chu, remained silent for a moment, and replied.
"This continent has been peaceful for too long. People need a baptism of war, otherwise the empire will not be stable."
She glanced at Chu beside her, then looked back at the distance.
She understood the sins she had done, but if there was no iron blood, how could the empire come to?
"At first, you should watch it behind me, I will definitely build a new world."
Hillman looked into the distance in a daze, as if there was there, and she saw what she was talking about.
That empire bathed in the sunshine of dawn.
···
In the second year of the 19th century, the Queen of Reinhardt personally led the soldiers into the Isseren Hills, and the bloody battle before dawn began.
···
The long wind roars above the hills, and the flags roar in the sound of the wind.
In the endless hills, Furster and Mantern's legion stood together.
They stood their shields on the ground, held their spears before them, stepped on their feet on the cold and wet land, and stared at the hills on the other side.
The kings of the two countries also rode on horses and were quietly waiting for something.
The sky is dull and cloudy, and the sun cannot penetrate the clouds, and it can only make the clouds mottled.
I don’t know if the wind is getting stronger, and the heart in my chest is beating faster.
Under the gaze of Furster and Mantlemen, a flag appeared on the other side of the hill.
It was a golden red flag. On the flag, the roaring lion opened his bloody mouth towards them. They all understood what this meant and held the spear in their hands tightly.
The war is about to begin.
Finally, under the flag, a cavalry appeared behind the hills.
They were wearing Reinhardt's unique armor and rode ferocious birds and dragons under them.
This is Reinhardt's Bird Dragon Knights, and there are few troops on the continent that can block their charge.
And behind the Knights, endless Reinhardt soldiers came, their bodies were carved like rocks, indestructible, their blades were as sharp as those made by gods, and their eyes were arrogant, as if they were covered in glory.
In front of this glorious legion, the queen who brought the war to the mainland, Reinhart von Hillmann rode his horse and walked slowly up the hill.
The hills were almost filled with soldiers, and this war would surely leave an epic mark in the history of the mainland.
Reinhart's soldiers understood that they were shaping a history.
And the soldiers of Folster and Mantern knew that they were defending their civilization.
As the two armies looked at each other silently, Hillman raised his hand.
The scarlet cloak shook behind her, and her hand, which she raised in the air, paused for a moment, and finally fell down.
At the same time, Mantern and the King of Furster also waved their swords.
"Woo!!!"
The horn of war sounded deafening, but it made people unable to hear whether it was a tragic or an uplifting heart.
All the soldiers knew was that they roared, picked up their spear and sword, and rushed towards the enemy.
The stones on the ground were trembling, because the earth was trembling, the sky was trembling, and the entire continent was trembling for the war that was about to rebuild the world.
As Hillman said, the new world will surely be built on the ruins of the old world.
Now, it is time to turn this old everything into ruins.
Roland rushed before the army with a long sword. Her silver hair was like a silver glimmer in this dull world. Unlike Hillman's glory, her light was not conspicuous, but she never hesitated.
"For the glory of Reinhart!"
She roared, and behind her, the soldiers roared.
"For the glory of Reinhart!"
For their faith.
Under this unstoppable legion, the soldiers of Furster and Mantern also came up. Their breathed heavily, but their pace was accelerating.
They charged forward with all their might.
"For Folster!"
"For Mantern!"
The same is true for their beliefs.
The soldiers on both sides fought for faith. They had no right or wrong, and there was no right or wrong in war, only victory and failure.
Two huge legions finally collided with each other, and the dim sunshine in the sky seemed to be stagnant.
A strong and dark aura that cannot be seen by the naked eye spreads from the battlefield.
Black mist covered the entire hill, and even the sky was blocked behind it.
Sin is rising among the crowd and flowing in people's blood.
Maybe this is why God abandons people.
