Helmut
Episode 494
After some time, the closed door opened once again. A gorgeous, beautiful woman entered with a smile. Everyone’s eyes were focused on her.
“Igrel.”
“This is the first time since we parted ways in the Forest of Pahe. “Are you all happy with this body?”
There was no hostility in the crossing gazes. Although she is a powerful monster, she is already considered an ally or something that will not harm her.
However, without letting down his guard, Xian asked suspiciously.
“You’re not planning on getting involved, are you? But for some reason.”
“Are you still thinking of doing that? Dealing with Baharek is the job of humans. I’m going to take a look. You guys are also my sights. “Don’t I deserve that much for telling you about that guy’s attack?”
This monster, brazenly walking around inside the wall, still seemed spontaneous and thoughtless.
Ygrel looked at the group with welcoming eyes.
“It’s a different feeling to see everyone again like this.”
It is a feeling I have never felt in all my long life, whether as the ruler of Pahe or as a monster.
I also felt like praising myself for being good at interacting with humans.
Ygrel looked around, then looked at Area and said.
“It reminds me of an invisible face. What is this empty feeling? “I never knew humans could make me feel this way.”
Heyke. The moment that name came to mind, Alea’s expression froze.
“…You didn’t even leave a body behind.”
Because it would have been crushed in a gap in space. So did Levina. Although it was an unavoidable sacrifice, it was a fact that made my heart heavy.
However, Levant actually spoke with a confident face.
“You have accomplished a glorious mission, so you will shine brighter than anyone else in Lumen’s arms.”
The sadness had already disappeared from the firm tone of voice.
“You fanatic bastard…”
Asuka muttered and shook her head. It felt awkward to call a paladin a fanatic.
While a friendly conversation was taking place, Levant opened his mouth.
“It seems like we gathered together to hang out rather than think of a plan.”
It is clear that there is no tension like when heading to the Forest of Pahe. They had already succeeded in a very unlikely mission, so although it was a headache, it could not be called a crisis.
A smile appeared on Helmut’s lips. A warlike smile that is close to his natural temperament.
“I hope he shows up quickly. “I won’t be bored for a long time.”
“Look at how confident you are. “I’ve been going around eliminating monsters for a long time, and now I want to see an end to it.”
“Once this is over.”
Helmut declared.
The defeat of the forest ruler of Pahe will alert the monsters. What happens if you cross that barrier? It will be imprinted on all monsters as a demonic nature.
If so, this place will become more peaceful than before.
It was right that the world of monsters and the world of humans were separated. Even though sometimes there are beings who cross that line.
* * *
At that time, the representative being that crossed the line was running furiously.
Toward the wall where Helmut might be. At the same time, towards the forest of his hometown Pahe. Although its body was small, its speed was fast enough to hear the sound of it piercing the air.
Elaga, who was running quickly, suddenly asked.
[Mute. Are we going the right way?]
What came back was an unclear answer.
[It’s getting closer.]
[How much?]
[I don’t know that. I hope you vent.]
[It doesn’t help that you’re riding on my back!]
Elaga burst out in anger. It’s already gotten smaller and I’ve figured out the direction, but I can’t see clearly in the thick forest.
The only time a cat’s body is useful is in the human world full of buildings. Even if you get angry at this parasite-like guy, nothing will be resolved.
Elaga asked, suppressing her anger.
[Then do you think you know where the nearby human village is?]
The human village has a map, so it should be easy to guess its location.
Mute frowned and concentrated as if using his extra senses. And then he said:
[There is a fairly large human village nearby.]
[Okay, let’s head there.]
After a while, Elaga easily entered a large human village.
For some reason, I was glad to see people walking back and forth and talking. Strangely enough, I feel like I’m home.
‘I’m also used to humans.’
[Okay, let’s look for a map.]
Elaga wondered where the map could be.
‘Maybe there was a map in a place called a bookstore?’
Or an inn. I think there was something like that in the accommodations where travelers usually stayed. There was no need to rush.
Elaga leisurely played with her feet while looking around the village. A pure white cat walking with a pout was enough to attract people’s attention.
A group of people gathered towards Elaga. Eyes mixed with curiosity and favor.
“huh? “What a white cat.”
“It looks like a house cat. Why is it in a place like this? “Who threw it away?”
“Is your fur clean?”
“really pretty.”
“Let’s go home!”
“Are you hungry? “I’ll give you something delicious!”
Elaga tried to shake off the reaching hand, but it was like a siege that could not be escaped, as if there was a wall in place.
Elaga, who was eventually caught and held in the arms of a girl, let out a disgruntled sound.
“Nyaaaaaaa!”
“It’s right, it’s good!”
Elaga felt embarrassed as she was kidnapped into someone’s house.
‘These humans.’
But it is true that the warm touch of humans is not a bad thing.
For the first time in a while, Elaga was able to receive a simple welcome party while receiving lots of love from humans.
It was a welcome party that made you feel like you had returned to your original world.
* * *
“Kaaaaaaaa!”
A ferocious roar rang out through the air. A rough and powerful wave that is enough to shake the forest of digging.
And there was the ruler of the western part of the Forest of Pahe, a being that even monsters felt fearful of.
Baharek grinned. The fangs he was proud of appeared in the air and gave off an eerie light.
‘Is this enough?’
Baharek gathered all the monsters he could find in the Forest of Pahe and prepared to move into the human world. We already know that many monsters have attempted to overcome the barrier and failed.
The preparation period was long because we knew that humans were not easy.
However, it is the instinct of a predator to covet the world of its prey. The barrier that stands in the way is just an object of challenge.
Following Naho, who had died long ago, the ruler of the central area disappeared, and Igrel and Baharek went into dormancy. At that time, the area and boundaries in Pahe Forest had disappeared in an instant.
The monsters were freer than ever. When the sacred barrier was lifted, the monsters who had been bored so far headed to the human world as if possessed. In a instinct.
That instinct was also present in Baharek.
[This is the human domain…]
Baharek’s eyes flashed strangely. Now it was time to expand our territory.
“Kaaaaaaaaaa!”
Immediately after another roar split the air, all the monsters moved. Bacharek also started running. Toward the Wall.
That was their instinct.
* * *
“It’s coming.”
Area was the first to say it, but everyone felt the same way.
Vibration transmitted from the floor. A suffocating demonic energy surging in. Ygrel tilted his head to one side and said sarcastically.
“It’s time. “I wonder how long Baharek will be patient.”
Sian asked.
“What are you going to do?”
“Are you going to take a look? “If some blind guy attacks me, I’ll catch him.”
“It’s really not helpful. “I’ll go check out the wall first, and everyone will come back when they’re ready.”
Discussions on how to set up the camp have already been completed. Now all we had to do was fight as hard as we could in each position.
The demon lord has been defeated, so does it matter no matter how many demons come?
Everyone felt a little nervous, but not too worried.
Although he is the ruler of the Baharek area, he is only one. In the end, all I had to do was hit that one guy.
But the situation was not so easy.
Coooooo!
The moment a huge rock flew in and hit the wall, the wall shook as if there had been an earthquake.
Even the bombardment continued one after another. Coooooo! Coooooo! Coo! Noise was scattered from all directions. The soldiers and knights had no idea what to do and had to struggle to keep their balance on the wall.
My eardrums tingled, the ground shook, and I felt nauseous.
In the meantime, it was the role of the wizards to restore the wall. But the offensive was too strong.
“These guys…”
Xian shouted as if he had realized something while repairing the collapsed wall.
“Imitating a siege. “Just like a human!”
Area frowned.
“That tiger didn’t look that smart.”
Helmut made a guess.
“You must have known how other monsters fell in front of the wall. “Because their magic is sharing knowledge.”
“I was wondering why you took so long to prepare something, but there was a good reason.”
Asuka narrowed her eyes and looked in the direction the rock was flying from.
The bombardment was beginning somewhere beyond the monsters swarming with demon energy. It won’t be easy to break through and stop it.
“How long are we going to keep doing that?”
In response to Asuka’s question, Xian responded by concentrating his magic power.
“Well, until the rock you brought falls?”
At that moment, a scream erupted from a wizard.
“Damn it!”
The rock falling in a parabolic curve cast a black shadow.
At that moment, a figure rose into the air.
Kwazijic!
A solid blue line cut through the air. Rocks, broken into pieces, fell scattered across the barrier.
widely!
Helmut got down on the wall and looked back.
“I’ll stop what comes up. “The wizards focus on rebuilding the wall.”
First of all, defense is an urgent priority. If we don’t defend ourselves, the knights and soldiers on this wall will be crushed before they even fight.
I felt that everyone underestimated Baharek. I thought he would attack me ignorantly, but I didn’t know that Baharek would use such a tactic.
But if you think about it, just like in the realm of Kantra, monsters also knew how to use tools. All you have to do is utilize it.
Because they had a commander who was the ruler of the western region, they acted in an organized manner.
It is clear that Baharek must be captured. However, he had not been seen since the attack began.
The bombardment that had been pouring down for a while gradually subsided at some point. No, I changed direction.
“be careful!”
“Oh my god, the cliff is collapsing!”
Rumbling!
The cliff connected to the wall had collapsed and was pouring down onto the wall.
The personnel at the end of the wall hurriedly evacuated, and the wizards dropped the remains below the wall.
Xian quickly moved towards that direction and asked.
“What happened!”
“Boulders flew toward the mountain and the cliff began to collapse!”
The wizard, who poured out magical energy without stopping, reported with a pale face.
“Unlike the wall, the side of the cliff connected to the wall has weak magic defense… so it cannot be repaired.”
At that moment, Sian’s face hardened for the first time.
