The Sage of Einar

Chapter 464 - The Conquest Of The Barony Of Birr



Having conquered the barony of Uisneach, the army led by Ansgar, set out on their way to the barony of Birr.

The penultimate point to be able to conquer the kingdom of Athlone, he knew from the prisoners he had taken that in the barony of Birr he would find a walled monastery.

Unlike the other monasteries that had been found in the other kingdoms, the walled monastery of the barony of Birr.

It was the oldest on the island of Ireland and it was also the largest due to the fact that it had been receiving a large amount of money from parishioners for hundreds of years.

It is because of that the monastery was the size of a completely enormous castle.

The road to the barony of Birr was quite quiet, as there was no kind of guard or population on the way.

However, it took them four days to reach the monastery, this because the roads that were supposed to be in good condition had been sabotaged.

So on the way they had to be repairing the roads otherwise they would have to focus directly on the frozen swamps, which could be counterproductive.

This was because it was a great barony, so it was mostly made up of swamps, which were for the most part without traces of civilization.

When they finally reached the walled monastery, Ansgar was surprised by the size 'The wall must be 6 meters high, however it is quite well reinforced.

It is surprising that they could build that tremendous walled monastery, in the middle of the swamps.

Unfortunately, I will have to finish it. I just hope he does not have valuable books inside. '

Ansgar gave the order to besiege the monastery and sent a messenger to request the surrender of the monastery.

When the messenger arrived at the gates of the walled monastery, he stated the conditions for the monks to be fully liberated.

However, the messenger who was speaking was killed at that moment by an arrow that pierced his neck.

The one who had shot it was one warrior who glared at the messenger as he treated him as a real danger.

Ansgar, seeing the death of the messenger could only sigh before clenching his hands with some anger.

'I can prepare to give Herald Einar a good explanation of why I burned down the monastery, or I can use chlorine gas to be able to finish them off.

However, I am a little concerned that if I use it now. In the battle we have against the Irish Coalition Army, it might be necessary for us.

But I cannot miss the fact that it is the largest monastery in Ireland, so it should contain a lot of secrets that could serve to better understand the history of this place.'

Ansgar closed his eyes and sighed as he searched for a suitable solution to the dilemma in front of him.

After a while, he ended up opening his eyes and ordered his soldiers to build sniper towers around the walled monastery.

This because he wanted to know how many enemies were inside that walled monastery. He also ordered that the soldiers assemble the catapults and ballistas.

While this was happening outside inside the monastery, Priest Seafra was looking with a smile at the enemies who were surrounding the monastery.

'All you damn pagans, you will pay for your crimes and everything you are doing against the holy church.

Do not think that because you have superior weapons and a greater force, I will not be able to defend my monastery.

Yesterday God spoke to me and told me that we would win against you. Everything is planned by God. You only follow your ant roles that cannot do anything against his divine power. '

Seafra turned her head and looked at the corpse of a monk on a chair. "I told you that God's plans are perfect, but you refused to believe what I was saying was true.

However, look at you now. You are completely dead and you are nothing more than a corpse in a state of putrefaction, and I am the leader of this monastery.

Everything is under my control, the control that you tried in vain too used to be able to lock me in that damn dungeon knowing that I was your son.

You are nothing more than a real danger to God's plans, but I killed you father so that you could not continue doing what you wanted.

Now I am in complete control of this place and will personally see to it that I can bring about change after defeating the Nordic army. "

At that moment, Seafra watched as his father's head moved to the side before he spoke to him.

'You think that by killing me you managed to change something? You are nothing more than a misfortune that I had with a peasant when I was young.

Your mother preferred to abandon you in the monastery rather than spend time with you. Look at you now. You call yourself a leader, but how many subordinates do you have?

You think they will be enough to stop the Nordic army. '

Seafra took a step back and pointed to his father. "You should be dead. Why haven't you gone to hell where you belong? I already told you and I won't get tired of saying it.

God told me that we were going to win this fight and you were not over it. You are nothing more than a soul that does not have a body father .

You should leave me alone. You are nothing more than a damn inconvenience in all my plans. If I fail in my sacred work, God would be furious with me. "

The corpse shook its rotten head to the side. 'You still believe that God is speaking to you, you should get rid of that silly idea you have in your head.

I told you many times no one is speaking to you, even now you are speaking completely alone. '

Seafra started laughing. "What are you going to know about what I can do and what I cannot do? You are nothing more than a corpse who has the nerve to talk to me.

Now you should go back to your damn place. I am not going to talk to you anymore, father; you are a disgrace to our lord God.

But you should know by now, I don't think you need me to tell you again. "

The corpse opened its mouth, revealing his advanced state of decomposition, 'Hahaha ...'

Seafra held his head and closed his eyes not wanting to see his father tease him.
