47 – There’s something…

night time in the dark.

Because it was full of clouds, not even the moonlight, let alone the stars, did not shine.

There was even a dreary night fog all around.

It’s literally the perfect situation to do something secretly.

Thinking that I was quite lucky in this regard, I was moving forward carefully through the bushes.

but this moment.

Contrary to the original plan to take action with only a handful of subordinates who could move, there were about 1,000 soldiers who were specially selected from all the demon corps behind me.

Unlike me wearing black armor for aggro,

For camouflage, the soldiers wore the armor of the Alliance of Tribes and had a black cloth mark on one shoulder.

In addition, it was invisible from here, but in the bushes on the other side, another unit led by General Samson was also looking at the surroundings, lying on their stomachs, camouflaged in Allied armor.

Even though the fatigue was not gone, they decided to pour virtually all their energy into the final battle nonetheless.

Looking at this, I couldn’t help but feel a strange feeling as I still couldn’t believe it, recalling the situation just before.

‘Like the weather, the situation where things are going, I really didn’t know that things would go this well.

Demon generals who openly growled against Elias the other day, and have often shown high pride ever since.

However, they had decided to act on my opinion as to what was going on in the earlier meeting, and now they were stepping out on a large scale and even helping to execute the operation.

To be honest, it was a surprise in many ways for me, who was thinking that I didn’t want to be disturbed.

And since I wasn’t expecting that much,

I felt a little bit grateful for their help.

‘I thought they were stubborn, frustrating, and proud guys… There are unexpectedly nice corners?’

In that way, while revising the evaluation of Samson and other generals,

I began to focus on the ‘target’ that began to appear in front of my eyes again.

‘Now then… Shall we start soon?’

in thick fog

The starlight was obscured by clouds, and even the moon lost its light.

In a situation where even such a simple atmosphere can make you feel down,

Abel and Cain, soldiers from the elven race, were standing guard at the entrance of the camp with deep dissatisfaction and a lingering sense of uneasiness in one corner of their hearts.

“ha… damn… No matter how unlucky I am, I would never have thought I would stand guard on a day like this..’

“Haaaaa… Let’s just say that. Why is luck so bad these days? Anyway, nothing works.”

Amel and Cain stand in the thick darkness, relying on only one torch.

At this moment, they were full of thoughts that if they could, they would like to go to bed just like the other soldiers who were scattered in the barracks.

This heavy fatigue that makes you automatically close your eyes as your eyes darken.

It wasn’t simply because it was sleep time that they were struggling to somehow overcome it.

It was a forced march that started at dawn yesterday and continued through the night.

They arrived here at the end of the grueling march, where they ran almost without rest, and because of this, their exhausted bodies were constantly demanding rest even at this moment.

Unfortunately, however, what the two were given was not a sweet rest, but a terrifying sentry mission.

In my mind, I even thought that I would like to lie down on the bare floor and never wake up, but despite this, the two of them had no choice but to struggle to maintain their sanity.

In the situation ahead of the battle, if the fact that the person in charge of the sentry was found out was obviously not going to end with light punishment.

However, despite this, the eyes of the two were still slowly closing, swayed by the instinctive desire to rest.

‘Common sense, there’s no way those guys can fight any more in this situation where the siege has just ended.’

‘We’re tired too, no kidding, but it would have been better if those guys who fought like dogs for several days were added.’

In such a dissatisfied mood, the two of them try to drive away sleep by forcibly rubbing their eyelids, which feel like they are full.

at that time…

“… yes?”

“why… Why?”

The next moment, Cain shows an expression as if he had suddenly run away.

Then he stared at the swaying bushes in the dark, frowning slightly as if something was ominous…

At this, Abel was seized with intense tension for a moment at the suddenly changed atmosphere of his friend.

“Has anything happened? west… Could it be that there are enemies at this time?”

Abel asked another question in a trembling voice.

To this, Cain did not answer, but maintained a heavy silence for a while as he inspected the bush carefully.

Like, in the dark, between the blurry bushes…

It was as if there was something there that seemed only pure darkness here.

“gulp… ”

In Cain’s heavy silence, Abel begins to swallow dry saliva without realizing it.

In response, Abel began to look closely at it to see if there was something in the darkness.

Dark darkness with rising fog.

The gloomy atmosphere, as if something would pop out at any moment.

Seized with a feeling of oppression that seemed to tighten his heart, he stared intently at it, feeling that he could see something moving in the darkness that his colleague had said.

But,

Even after about 10 minutes passed, nothing was visible to his eyes.

All you can see is a swaying bush.

Nothing particularly stood out.

“Um… , I guess I was mistaken.”

“Whoa… ”

Abel let out a deep sigh at Cain’s words.

The emotion contained in it was a sense of relief and dissatisfaction with a close friend who had made him afraid in this way.

“I really… look straight ahead Didn’t you get scared, knowing that the real demons were attacking you?”

“mi… I’m sorry… In fact, I was either long or short… I must have seen something in vain because I was so tired… ‘

Cain spoke with a puzzled expression on his face, and Abel turned his head forward again as he felt steam leaking out.

By the way…

“uh?”

“… And why? Are you looking at something in vain this time?”

Cain’s voice filled with perplexity was heard once again.

Abel said in a brusque voice, wondering if this friend was playing a joke.

By the way…

“ruler… you… female… Next… Next… .”

“Next?”

Abel turned his head while questioning Cain’s words.

at that time…

“hi?”

-Pak!

At the same time as someone’s short greeting, Abel’s face was stained with astonishment at the incomprehensible feeling that he felt for a moment.

In an instant, what caught his eyes was a black flash emanating from a black greatsword.

At the same time, Abel’s throat feels like it’s on fire, and everything feels empty…

A strange, yet at the same time, something comforting feeling began to engulf me.

Immediately after that, Abel’s eyes began to see Cain’s head flying through the air.

His head couldn’t think of anything more, and he closed his eyes in thick fatigue.

Just as he had hoped all along while standing guard…

“It’s a surprise!”

“Enemies! Enemies are attacking!”

A loud noise coming from outside.

At this, Memnon, who had fallen into a deep sleep, came out of the barracks with only a sword without even wearing his armor.

“What… What? What happened?”

“ruler… General! nice… It’s a big deal! The demons… the demons have attacked!”

“A surprise! You mean at this hour? Uh… how big is the enemy? Who is the enemy!”

“That… that… The size of the enemy is currently unknown. The darkness and fog are so thick, and the enemies are camouflaged with our allied armor…”

“Kuh…!”

“All… However, according to the reports of the soldiers, the appearance of the demon king was seen among the enemies! The demon king in black armor holding a black greatsword!”

“what? mind… Devil?”

A surprise attack from an unexpected enemy.

In addition, the appearance of the Demon King, whose name alone is enough to evoke the feeling of fear.

As a result, a dark shadow was cast on Memnon’s face for a moment, but soon after he regained his senses, he began to struggle to resolve the situation somehow.

“Everything.. Assemble allied soldiers right away! Form your camp and prepare to fight the enemy!”

“I see, General!”

“damn… I never thought they would catch me off guard like this… ”

It was a fact that everyone, including Memnon, knew that the enemy’s fatigue was more than their own, never less.

However, despite this, the enemy resolutely launched a surprise attack at this time,

This gave Memnon and other generals a sense of being beaten in the back of the head.

“OK… Would you feed us like this? Demon King, I will slit your head right here!”

Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm

Memnon and his men head into the fog with such an angry look on their faces.

Although the number was only about 100 as the situation was, there was no time to gather more troops than this now as the enemy’s offensive continued.

“let’s go! I’m going to go and slit the devil’s head!”

Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm

Memnon raises his voice to force morale up even in the midst of chaos.

at that time…

“uh?”

A black flash flashed in the fog for a brief moment.

Feeling something eerie at the same time, Memnon’s face began to reflexively reflect emotions of doubt and fear.

However, before he could do anything about it…

-Quaguaguagwang!!!

A tremendous shockwave pierced through the fog and flew towards us.

The moment he saw it, Memnon’s face began to look astonished, but it was already too late.

A black light that covers the whole world in an instant.

The bodies of Memnon and his men were shattered as they were, caught up in the wave of terrifying power.

Without even clearly recognizing what and how they suffered…
