Chapter 523 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 523

Encrid reflects on the nature of war, the motivations of soldiers, and the inevitability of death for those who carry swords. He contemplates the ethics of combat and his own desire to minimize sacrifices rather than seeking glory or mindless slaughter. As the campaign against Aspen approaches, Kreise Allman presents a deceptive strategy designed to manipulate the enemy's perception. Kreise plans to use a 'wall' of misinformation to stall the enemy, allowing a main force to maneuver around them. He acknowledges his own constant anxiety but uses it to prepare for every possible failure, including escape routes into the Pen-Hanil Mountains. Kreise reveals his plan to intercept the enemy forces, aiming to engage them in a way that avoids a full-scale war while still threatening their advance. To facilitate this, Kreise uses Encrid as bait to scout the terrain through Shinar Kirhais and the Rangers. Meanwhile, the enemy strategist Avnair detects the deception and decides to meet the threat head-on, ordering the beast General to win the upcoming clash. The chapter concludes with the tension between Kreise's anxiety-driven preparation and Avnair's confident command as the two forces prepare to collide.
