Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 39

Surprise always gives you an edge.

And the surprise attack with the body strengthened by Aura or magical power is close to the level of an arrow that moves freely between enemies. For ordinary people, it can be said to be a disaster itself.

Thanks to that, I’m now the disaster that’s chugging along among these damn bastards.

“Run away!”

It is a good phenomenon that the will of those who tried to stop me somehow breaks down and those who choose to run away begin to appear. Because they chose to run away because they felt there was no one to stop me. Sheryl flew in and drove her sword into his chest as soon as she expressed her gratitude to the commander or the guy who proved that he was capable enough in the end.

“Keep it off!”

I liked the fact that I didn’t have to worry about my back thanks to Cheryl, who moves at my own pace, but it’s a bit annoying that I can’t see anyone worthy of being the commander after I’ve already cut down close to ten guys. I think there were about three of them together earlier, but did any of them have heads?

“이 개새끼가!”

While I hesitated for a moment in my thoughts, one of them, digging in at a fairly fast pace, stabbed me with a sword. A bit of an ugly face. Traces of the knife bread. Judgment and skills that can dig into a moment of carelessness.

“Are you a captain?”

-Pacan!

“Crazy fuck!?”

My sword, which I swung with all my strength, cut the sword of the one stabbing me in the direction of the heart. Thanks to that, the guy was freaked out and I was freaked out too.

The sword split vertically…?

“Is this happening?!”

It was an amazing sight to the point of shocking myself, but as soon as I realized that this was an opportunity, my instincts decided first, and I moved my body and tried to stab it while pressing down the sword.

With the sound of iron grinding, sparks fly between the sword of the guy who was cut in half and my sword, creating sparks that can be seen when cutting iron with a grinder. Beyond the tip of the sword stabbed like that, his despairing expression came in.

“Fuck no no…!”

– Fu-wook!

Perhaps because he was quite surprised, he didn’t even think to put down his sword. His heart was pierced by the sword and blood poured out. In the illusion that an unwelcome death was climbing on a sword, the commander or action leader who met my eyes died before he could breathe.

“Well, that’s a monster.”

“Run, run away…”

From that point on, even the four guys who were running around start to retreat in fright. I guess my expectations weren’t too far off.

At the end of the strange sensation of pulling the sword out of the sword, blood flowed from the sword that was swung wide, and as if it was some kind of poison, they started to run away in confusion.

“You’re like cowardly bastards who know how to kill only those weaker than you. Aren’t you fellows scattered around this forest?! After all, you guys are criminals by this time. Wouldn’t it be better to just fight and die than to live a life of misery?”

“Aaaaaaa!”

“Fuck away!”

I wondered if one or two would rush to come, but I guess my expectations were too high. As I stared dejectedly at the guys who even dropped their weapons and ran away without looking back, Cheryl, who came next to me, said calmly.

“I killed all 20 people who were in the commanding department.

“Ah. I did.”

It belatedly reminded me of what I said as if there were only 20 people here, except for the ones spread out in the forest.

“It was an ambush, so I forgot because I moved with the thought that I had to kill it as soon as I reached it.”

I assumed the people who were in the forest without even knowing it and moved.

Sheryl, who was looking at me as if I was bewildered, lifted the sword that was split vertically and examined it before opening her mouth.

“Is this what you were aiming for?”

“How am I supposed to aim for that? I tried to hit it, but it got stuck. It must have been a cheap sword.”

“Still, I don’t think it’s going to look like this normally…?”

“Actually, I think so too.”

I heard that there are times in life when you show off your movements or skills beyond what you can do, but maybe that’s how it feels. Some kind of sword split like bamboo.

It was new, so I looked at my sword, and sure enough, all the blades that split and scratched the sword were shattered. Resentful, I wanted to rob the dead people’s pockets, but I decided to endure it because it would be hard to get a good sound if I did such a petty thing in a situation where Ogatorv’s name would be mentioned.

“What do you want to do? Do you want to chase after me?”

“Not really. That noble guy is still there, and there are 10 people who are close to him, so there’s no need to strain with those things.”

“If I don’t go crazy, will you throw a knife at us who destroyed this place?”

“You’ll have to pretend you’re tired to push in.”

“what?”

“I’m really tired, but if I go out with the feeling that I’ve finished somehow, he’ll worry about it too. Threatening, conciliating, or remaining ignorant. Seeing his reaction, I’ll be able to understand him a bit more and prepare for it.”

It’s because the true nature comes out in the illusion that there are options. Sheryl, who had been watching me smile with her molar teeth exposed, also smiled ferociously.

“I like that.”

◈

After a little more effort, we took only three heads of guys with better equipment than the others and moved to get out of the forest.

The sound of clashing weapons coming from all directions let me know that the situation had not yet been sorted out, but I didn’t bother going there unless I was caught on the way.

I’ve killed all the people who get caught.

“Even so, I never thought I’d be covered in blood

on purpose…” We didn’t have any scars left because we wiped out the main base too one-sidedly, so after much thought, we dug in some of the dead and forcibly smeared blood on our bodies. Of course, neither I nor Cheryl were willing to do it, but we had no choice.

At least Cheryl was covered in blood, but I had to pay the painful expense of deliberately cutting my leather armor to make sure.

“Isn’t it more plausible that you fought a battle than I did? It’s true.”

Well, even if I didn’t know anything about it, if a girl the size of Sheryl covered in blood and wearing scarred armor, holding a person’s neck in both hands, walked out, I would be nervous. Because the gap with common sense is too big. A rather large, muscular man would help with proper vigilance.

As we left the outskirts of the forest like that and came out again, the leader caught our eye at a glance, who had a clear expression of bewilderment from afar.

“What, what happened?”

“What’s going on? Kill all the guys in the ruins and come out.”

“what?!”

“Are there roughly twenty people? I caught one and found twenty in the base. I heard that there were about forty in the forest, so I killed them and left. These guys are the ones with the most decent equipment and look like a captain.”

As I threw the head that made me feel bad even holding it in front of him, I could see the leader’s complexion getting paler.

“He-killed them all?”

“Then, only the spirits came out after death? I killed some of the forest guys, so I guess I got around 30. But we have 60 people, and I think we can clean up the rest of the 30 people too, right? The two of us did enough, so I’m going to rest now.”

“That needs proof…”

“I won’t stop you, so go in and take a look. Coincidentally, there must be aristocratic enlisted men over there. Just walking straight the way we came will tell you, so do whatever you want. We’re tired and can’t go.”

I couldn’t tell if there was a head or face that had fallen on the floor, but I could tell at a glance that the leader’s eyes were shaking as if an earthquake had struck. After hesitating a few steps back, the guy made no effort to stay calm and hurriedly turned around and ran to the campsite.

“Ki, wait! I’ll report back and come back!”

“…isn’t it clear that being openly flustered isn’t a kid who’s never happy?”

“If it’s happy, the head on the floor must be laughing too.”

As Cheryl dared to kick her head one more time, as she waited with infinite positivity, the campsite became noisy, and a seemingly aristocratic man appeared with enlisted soldiers.

I was a very normal man on the outside, to the point of being a little disappointed.

At first glance, the man with neatly shaved brown hair and a body that was not too tall but built enough to be seen from the top of his clothes was the owner of an impression close to that of a warrior.

He approached us without haste, and unlike his polite attitude, he looked at us with sharp eyes and spoke.

“I am the client of this subjugation, Baron Pavaera. I heard from the servants that you are the ones who subdued the thieves camped out in the forest, is that correct?”

Those eyes, despite their bluish tinge, were very pitiful eyes that felt somber.
