The Second Son of The Marquis Runs Away from Home ~ Lacking Talent, He Abandons Everything and Becomes an Adventurer ~ - 198
Chapter 198: Those Ignited by Fire (Multiple Perspectives)
(Berga Kingdom)
Amidst the white army advancing towards the capital, there was someone who leaped into the midst.
“…Earth Wall!”
Clad in armor of rock, the warrior Rakul swung down his war blade, causing the ground to crack and fissures to form. Then, a wall of rock appeared behind him, blocking the path.
“You shall not pass from here.”
Rakul declared while holding his war blade ready. He struck down the approaching monsters, but more monsters followed…
Heavy swordsmanship clashed with crimson sword flashes, and the monsters attempting to attack were swiftly eliminated.
“I never imagined I would be involved in such a large-scale battle while still alive… Go!”
“Though the burden of saving the world is heavy, it cannot be borne by my sons alone… Everyone, charge!”
Under the command of the Flame Blade Knight Vorga and the Knight Commander Brahms, the knights who had been on standby launched an assault. The monsters caught between Rakul’s created rock wall and the knights were swiftly eliminated.
“It seems there’s more coming. Can you handle it, Rakul?”
“Aye. Serk is fighting… I can’t afford to lose either!”
Rakul said so and, along with Brahms, advanced towards the newly appearing monsters. Watching the backs of the father and son, Vorga muttered to himself.
“There are others in the kingdom besides Lord Badol who have courage… My old blood is boiling.”
Vorga charged into the battlefield, imbuing his sword with scorching heat.

(Launas Holy Kingdom)
The apostles were launching attacks, surrounding the repaired defensive walls.
Attacks from the apostles rained down on the holy kingdom, but a barrier was erected from the defensive walls.
“Everyone, put your spirit into your prayers!”
While praying, Merltina injected vigor into them. With the combined effort of all the priests, the attacks were repelled by the barrier.
“Now!”
Immediately after repelling the attacks with the barrier constructed from the defensive wall’s spell, the apostles were attacked under Luminus’s command.
Magic and arrows assailed the apostles and monsters, and though the monsters attempted to approach the defensive wall, the civilians stationed atop it retaliated by dropping debris.
“With this, there should be no problem with defense.”
“That’s right.”
Luminus and Merltina stood side by side, facing the monsters. Merltina blessed Luminus’s sword, and Luminus swung it down upon the monsters.
Empowered by the blessing, the slash tore through the monsters, inspiring the knights and citizens of the holy kingdom.
“It pains me to entrust such a crucial task… As one bestowed with the title of ‘Pure Knight,’ I shall fulfill my duty.”
Luminus said as he readied his sword, while Merltina held her staff in readiness.
“Well, well, I have no intention of praying to fake gods anyway.”
Saying so, she deployed her magic.

(Walkuria)
“Let’s do it!”
“Yeah!”
Adventurers faced the approaching monsters, resisting while each party divided and conquered the monsters.
“Ugh!”
Garma blocked the giant monster’s club with his large shield. His companions attacked the monster while he deflected, throwing it off balance.
“Take this!”
Horuas’s greatsword cleaved through the air and the monster, while Enea and Marcela intercepted the approaching apostles from the sky with magic.
“We’ll fight too, Berg…!”
As the apostles attempted to attack from the sky…
They were swiftly cut down in a single blow.
“Well, I didn’t anticipate this situation.”
The Guild Master, clad in his old battle attire, landed lightly with a sword in hand.
“Guild Master!? Are you alright!?”
“I kept up with training, you know. Still not as fast as I used to be… especially compared to Berg-kun.”
Sheathed his sword, the Guild Master activated “Wind Step” and leaped, slicing through the apostles with lightning speed.
“I yield to you, ‘Phoenix Man’ Zenji.”
With a belligerent smile on his wrinkled face, the Guild Master sheathed his sword once more.

(Berg’s Perspective)
“It’s true that humans have weak and ugly aspects where they hurt others for their own sake.”
I spoke while facing Il-Eater, sharing the answer I found.
“But you see, humans also have strong aspects where they stand up even in the face of great despair. They have beautiful aspects where they sacrifice themselves for others. That’s the strength of humanity! No matter how exposed to despair they are, they stand up and move forward! To fight for someone else… That’s the strength that people who you haven’t seen possess!”
I raised my sword, and my cloak fluttered like flames of darkness.
“And I am the Chaos Crusader who protects such people… the Black Storm Knight, Berg!”
In response to my words, Garma neighed and kicked the ground as we ran.
