章節 55: Deposing an Emperor

Marcellus clashed with what remained of Honorius's personal bodyguard. While he and his Legion fought side by side against the enemy forces. Honorius was nowhere to be seen. He had long since abandoned the balcony in fear that an arrow might claim his life. However, the rebel general did not care.

Instead, he used his sword and shield to reap the lives of the men in front of him, who slowly but surely fell by the wayside. He could not count how many necks he had stabbed through, or how many mail shirts he had penetrated by sheer brute force. Mail armor was virtually invulnerable to slashes, but against piercing strikes, the links of the chain were liable to break. Especially with enough force.
