Chapter 40 - Grime and Mummies “Gwoh…!” Along with the light, an intense stench flowed towards us. I pinched my nose to resist somehow, and inquired about it. “What the hell is this!? The smell of corpses? No…this is…” “M-My apologies. I did not tell you where the passage leads to.” Jaar replied, he too was pinching his nose. “We are in the fort’s latrines. It will smell a bit, but please endure it.” Of all places, the secret passage led to the fort’s toilet. Holding my nose in…

Chapter 47 - Zeal Drenched in Blood 【POV: Sakuya】 “Mph…to go with my brother and leave me here…Lord Dyngir can be so mean sometimes.” In the city of Thebes, capital of the Sphinx territory, I was left in charge of the residence currently borrowed by Lord Dyngir. The conflict caused by the invasion of the “Terror Armies” in the western province was going to end soon. My master, Lord Dyngir, was now leading troops to retake Fort Giza, an outpost located on the western border of the…

Chapter 44 - The Fallen Hero Valon’s blade descended on me from above, and I blocked it with my sword. “Gh….!?” It was a crushingly heavy blow: my knees almost gave in under the weight. “Kha! Hahaha! How is the taste of my reborn blade!?” Valon’s mummified face cackled, and while I was still recovering from the previous strike, he launched another attack. Our swords clashed, as I desperately blocked Valon’s slashes. The weight of his sword and strikes were much superior to the Valon I…

Chapter 41 - The Last Betrayal 【POV: Jaar Menfis】 (Well…I never thought I’d get a chance this quickly.) I whispered to myself as I watched Dyngir Maxwell mow down the undead creatures with his blade. When Nahib Massab ordered me to assassinate Dyngir Maxwell, I felt desperate. How was I supposed to kill a warrior of his caliber? However, after we snuck into Fort Giza, we ended up separating from the rest of the troops, and he was not even facing me right now. I couldn’t have asked for a better…

Chapter 45 - The Final Duel “Ghh…!!!” My fist made a dent on the mummy’s face. Any regular human would have probably had their skull caved in and die, but Valon just retreated a couple steps. “Youuu…daaaAAAAMN YOUUU!!!” Valon, holding his face with his left hand, swung his shamshir in a wide arc. I quickly stepped out of the way and poked out my tongue at him. “Be glad, you’re a lot more handsome now. That ugly dried up mug of yours got slightly more bearable to watch, at…

Chapter 35 - The (Sister) Spy Scolds Not to toot my own horn, but I could say with confidence that the “Fangs of Steel”, the covert intelligence operations organization at my command, was rather excellent. Their level of prowess was top class, if not the top, not only in the whole Kingdom of Lamperouge, but possibly the entire continent. I was thus very surprised to learn that there was someone capable of avoiding being tracked by such spies, whose skills belonged more to the realm of fantasy than…

Chapter 36 - Aged Warrior After I finished drinking my tea, and Sakuya had finished administering due punishment to her older brother, a visitor arrived at my residence. It was a messenger from House Sphinx: apparently the head of the clan, Vert Sphinx, had something to discuss with me. “Oh? Are you going out commander?” “Yeah, just to House Sphinx.” As I left the residence with Sakuya, one of the adventurers — who was training in the garden — called out to me. Since I wasn’t very pleased…

Chapter 31 - Relentless Army “Haah…haah…haah..haah…” Lure the undead away from the fort and exterminate them, lure away and exterminate…after repeating the process four times, the adventurers following me naturally began showing clear signs of fatigue. None of us were on horseback: we ran and fought on our own legs. Firstly because the horses in possession of House Sphinx were being used to evacuate the citizens, and secondly, almost none of the adventurers had any experience riding horses…
