Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 199

The sun blazed fiercely, and the prince’s knights were valiant. At first, despite being vastly outnumbered, they cut through the heathens like reeds.

There was a clear difference—both in quality and equipment—between the royal elite knights, meticulously trained for over a decade, and the hastily conscripted light infantrymen thrown into battle with little to no preparation.

But in the end, it was still men doing the fighting, and men inevitably grew weary. After roughly an hour, the situation had become desperate.

“Dino—!!”

Alfonso’s anguished cry echoed through the air.

A heathen’s scimitar struck Sir Bernardino from behind. Already overwhelmed by three enemies clinging to him like barnacles on a whale, Sir Bernardino sank silently to the ground.
