Cavalrymen Training Events and the Secret Hunter Major Operation_3

“What evil!”

Valande was shocked by this news.

After escaping the hell of Westerburg two years ago, they had not failed to send scouts to approach the ruins of the city for reconnaissance, and even Valande himself had several times risked entering the city amidst the lingering plague, but he had discovered nothing in Westerburg worthy of concern, because the Perception and protection granted by the forest were difficult to take effect in that accursed place.

He had no doubt that Lord Morphy would joke about such a thing.

But if the news was true, then their return journey to Westerburg would be fraught with danger.

“You must go back to Crimson Castle right away!”

The Grey Vulture Knight knelt before the Little Count, seriously saying to Ellen:

“You’ve just recovered your health; you can not risk it again in dangerous places.

I will take your place and go to the ruins of Westerburg to retrieve the remains of the old count and the tools you left there.

Lord Morphy made a good point—Transylvania is in shambles, and every bit of manpower is precious, especially a ruler like you.

We can’t take risks anymore.”

“No, Valande, I know you’re worried about me, but now I must go back with you,”

Little Sheron shook her head, clenched her fists, and explained:

“If Lord Morphy’s message is true, it means that I might see my parents beneath the ruins…

although not in the way I hoped, but I must go.

I want to see if there’s any chance of rescuing my parents and our fellow countrymen.

Lord Morphy informed me in the communication that the Jackal Warlock has something called the ‘Festival Wand.’ It’s the Moon priests’ secret method from the Song Sea Empire to control the Dead.

If my parents and our people are controlled by such an evil thing, then after our previous regrets, we must not let them down again this time.

We are children of the wilderness!

We forge bonds with nature and the wild in our souls and lives; we never give up on our own, and neither death nor disaster can separate us.

Moreover, we left in too much of a hurry, and the smithing diagrams for the Spirit Energy armors for the Winged Cavalry and the various weapon schematics tailored for them were still with my father.

If you want to rebuild the Winged Cavalry’s ranks, we can’t do without those.”

“I’ll get them back, you shouldn’t risk yourself anymore.”

The Valande Knight was still very stubborn.

However, the Little Count wasn’t really asking for his opinion.

The girl who, after suffering, had led the Winged Cavalry to persist in the highlands for two years couldn’t possibly be faint-hearted.

Her summons was merely to announce her decision.

Seeing the resolve on Ellen’s pale face, Valande knew he couldn’t dissuade his lady.

This young girl might not be as robust and invincible as her old dad, but her steely determination was genuinely that of a highlander at heart.

“Alright, I can’t argue with you.”

The Grey Vulture Knight finally relented, but he insisted:

“You can come with us, but you cannot act alone; you must have either me or Sunny accompany you.”

“Sunny has a child now; can you not make her go to dangerous places?

That’s your first child, and I’m expecting him to be a future General of the Winged Cavalry,”

Count Shuren protested:

“Let Sunny rest easy in the highlands.

I’m a formidable vampire now; I’m not afraid of the undead crawling out of hell.”

“Right, right, right, we also designed this for the new recruits!”

Loyal Brother also got excited.

He picked up a set of anti-poison gas masks made of leather tubing from the ground and handed them to the Grey Vulture Knight, explaining:

“This can protect recruits below the Black Iron Rank.

I added two more layers of filters inside, so it will allow us to last longer in the remnants of the plague without consuming Spiritual Energy.

I heard that every time you entered the ruins before, you had to sustain the light of Natural Psychic Power purification.

We don’t need that anymore.

My little Tutor and I have also made two boxes of ‘Vampire Punch.’

These will be enough for us to complete this exploration of the ruins.”

The Valande Knight glanced at the curved mines placed at the edge of the tent; he had personally witnessed the sight of the mines exploding in the barracks before, and they indeed had an impressive power.

“The new-style Cavalry short rifles are almost ready too.”

Little Sheron patted the blueprints on the table and said:

“This new knowledge has opened up a whole new world for me.

Just wait, Valande, I’ll rebuild our Winged Cavalry into the best Cavalry on the continent myself!

We must reclaim those things taken from us with our own hands!

Morphy promised that at some future moment, we would again face the Pioneer Army and Marshal Loren!

I have no doubt about Morphy’s determination in this matter.

Eventually, we will face those warmongering Dwarves who destroyed our homeland on the battlefield again, and next time, we will let him and his soldiers truly understand what despair means, just as they destroyed our past.

Of course, we won’t use the plague…

Even as vampires, we will be much more merciful than those who chase, revel in, and glorify war.”
