233. The Guardian

The Guardian was born in a small but peaceful kingdom.

The Guardian, who longed for his father, who had been a knight since he was a child, wanted to be a knight like his father. When the Guardian said he wanted to be a knight, his father, who valued defense, handed him a shield.

"You must protect your body."

And my father, who had been home since that night, trained the Guardian with his bare hands.

Caen! Caen! Caen!

It was simply wielding hands and feet, but it was useless to properly block the attack made by my father, who was an adult. The Guardian's body was flying up and down, and his father, who was trained by many real games, had to struggle because he was attacking for his shreds and vital points. The Guardian worked hard every night until he was devastated.

Over time, the Guardian began to stop and counterattack as he became accustomed to his father's attack. My father saw the Guardian blocking and counterattacking all of his attacks, an active knight, and thought he had a talent for dealing with shields. Every time the Guardian blocked the attack, it attacked more strongly, and each time the Guardian blocked the attack with a shield. My father was delighted with the Guardian's growth and thought he would soon surpass himself. Then one day, they invaded the kingdom from a huge, greedy neighbor.

In order to protect the country, the Guardian entered the Lord whom his father served and became a seed. Since I was still young to go to the battlefield, I did bad things at Yeongju's house and learned how to live in the world, including military classes. Also, in the middle, I developed my skills by Daeryeon with the knights under Yeongju. When I got older to a certain extent, I became a knight by following my father and participating in battles and steadily building up achievements. The Guardian entered the Knights where his father belonged.

In the Knights, the Guardian took on the role of blocking the enemy's attack in front of the head and drawing attention. The enemies in front of the Guardian were blocked by the shield and could not go forward, and the enemies who were trying to ignore the Guardian were knocked down by the attack. The Guardian's performance has clearly reduced the damage to the Knights, and there has been no single defeat in the battle. Rumors of the Guardian, who did not know defeat, spread widely in both countries, and he was nicknamed the knight of invincibility as he became a fearful figure for his allies.

The neighboring country, which was defeated in a series of battles due to the Guardian's performance, began to use its power to put pressure in all directions after dividing its forces, taking advantage of the fact that it has far more troops. Where there was the Guardian, he sent only enough troops to tie it up, and then he pretended to fight moderately and made it retreat. The Guardian's time continued to be wasted, and in the meantime, it began to attack other places and occupy the land. The Guardian quickly defeated enemies in his way, moving on many battlefields to continue his winning streak, but successive defeats elsewhere put the situation at a disadvantage.

If this situation continues, it was only a matter of time before the kingdom was destroyed and we had to find a way to solve it.

The kingdom gathered geniuses to give up and found a solution overnight for a few days. Then, if a person rides a rough mountain range connected to the kingdom and neighboring countries, he can hide in neighboring countries without the enemy knowing. He added that genius can use this method to win if he catches the king in the rear, and even if he fails, only the unit that infiltrated will be wiped out, and the main unit of the kingdom will not be damaged because there is no blow. It was a gamble with his life, but the Guardian, who thought it was worth a try, decided to voluntarily take part in the operation.

The Guardian began to cross the mountains with a handful of elite soldiers. The mountain range was not a place for people to pass by. The soldiers climbed the cliff, grabbed the trees, drilled through the mountains, made tunnels, passed through the road, and built bridges in the valley to advance. Because the mountain was so high and rough, the work was difficult, and food transportation could not be achieved, so we moved on to self-sufficiency. After a hard journey, many soldiers were killed and injured, but they crossed the mountains.

Across the mountains, the Guardians and the soldiers found a position in the rear.

Before the Guardian left, an innumerable number of troops were deployed where they were confronting each other, and since it was a rear far from the front, it was expected that there would be only a small number of troops at the targeted position. However, when we arrived at our destination and checked the enemy's position, we found that although we were not as good as the front troops, we could not believe that it was the rear. The Guardian and the soldiers, who were tired and hungry to cross the rough mountain path without supply, were in despair. But the Guardian kingdom was a flashpoint, so he took a risk and infiltrated the night when everyone was deeply asleep and captured the king. The soldiers agreed, and they all waited for the night, taking care of their hard bodies.

Not long after, night came, and when everyone was asleep deeply, the Guardian and the soldiers sneaked into the camp to avoid the night guard. However, when I came into the camp, the appearance of each tent was similar, so I had a problem finding a place where the king was. If this continues, it was only a matter of time before the patrol soldiers were caught. The Guardian suggested setting fire to make a fuss.

Because I thought that if I set fire, soldiers would move to protect the king first. The soldiers, who had no choice, agreed with the Guardian, and set fire to all parts of the barracks with torches they had taken after fainting nearby soldiers. The fire spread quickly and many tents began to burn. Surprised while sleeping on a sudden fire, the soldiers ran out of the tent and shouted.

"Fire!"

The position was in chaos and the soldiers moved incessantly to put out the fire.

During the commotion, soldiers gathered in a poisonous place, and the Guardian led the soldiers to attack, convinced that there was a king there. The soldiers, who were caught in a sudden fire and attack, fell to their senses and easily caught the king. The Guardian shouted that they had won.

The captured king was questioned. Because no matter how much I think about it, there was no way to lead the soldiers through the wire so that they wouldn't be caught. The king, who could not stand the question, said he would admit defeat if he answered his question. The Guardian replied that he had crossed the rough mountains. The king, who knows what the mountain range is like, admires the Guardians and the soldiers who have crossed the rough road and says he will no longer invade you because you have won. The Guardian happily returned to the kingdom and was welcomed as a hero.
