Episode 616 Presence of War (6)
While the Principality of Soleil is focusing its efforts on the war.
Hafman was scrambling to save the relief army.
“Those who wouldn’t mind chewing on something like this!”
He sweated and ran wild.
Perhaps because the Heukbang blocked all distribution channels, the mercenary guild and the adventurers guild often kissed each other and shook their heads.
That said, he decided not to jump into politics, so he couldn’t borrow the kingdom’s troops.
‘Hafman. Don’t forget your duty as a merchant. If you eat it alone, your stomach will burst and you will die.’
It’s not someone else’s, it’s Taesangdanjuism.
To break it was inconceivable to Hafman.
“It is difficult. With Zeke and the guard, it’s possible to hold on for a while, but…”
Perhaps the longer the fight, the more they will get tired.
That’s also true, because over there, over ten thousand troops have come prepared.
If there were any signs of war, it would be difficult for a fledgling duchy with no preparations to receive it.
Hafman pondered dozens of times in his mind.
‘Shouldn’t it be better to tell the truth to the mistress and ask for help?’
Normally, even thinking about it would be considered disrespectful and erased it from my heart.
However, his heart was shaken a little because the principality was about to be crushed.
Wouldn’t there be a way to overcome the current situation if it was a famous high elf?
he sighed deeply.
Victory in war or keeping subordinate duty?
Hafman’s face as he weighed the two looked ten years older.

While black and red spirits draw attention.
The other security guards were able to escape safely to the inside of the wall.
Soyoung said with a contemplative face.
“Two were caught. I won’t last long.”
At those words, Sa-Young was silent, and Hong-Young silently nodded.
“…Now there is nothing but all-out war.”
It’s something I wanted to avoid the most, but I can’t help it now that it’s like this.
With the goblins at the forefront, there is no choice but to recover the captured black and red spirits.
Soyoung also agreed to her words.
“I will be in charge of reporting to the Goblin Queen. Prepare yourself in the meantime.”
with horses.
Soyoung kicked the ground and hurriedly ran.
Now it’s not a position to cover fire.
If possible, it was a feeling of wanting to get help from other kingdoms even if it was possible.
Hong-young and Sa-young followed So-young’s words and helped prepare for the war.
Fortunately, the goblin queen seemed to have put a word in advance, and when the two went to visit, a large goblin who appeared to be the commander spoke up.
“I heard the story from the Queen. Please come over here and help.”
It is clear that he is a 3rd generation goblin, judging from his large physique and not slurred speech.
Each generation develops like a species evolves, so I wonder how strong the 4th generation goblins will become.
The two of them brushed aside their curiosity and helped prepare by transporting supplies for war as directed by the commander Goblin.
The goblins move around busily, donning weapons and preparing for battle.
Fortunately, none of the goblins feared war.
Is this what a species born for fighting is like?
It is safe to say that the goblins, who fought hard to protect their land, were born soldiers.
“Kieek! Let’s show the taste of fire to the humans who dare to come without even knowing the subject!”
“Keew!”
“Keeeeek!”
With the mysterious spirit, the goblins increased their momentum.
The number is slightly less than ten thousand, but considering that all of them can handle mana, it is a considerable force.
If this is the case, it would not be unreasonable to bring victory in an all-out war.
As more power than I imagined gathered, I began to feel a little bit of anticipation.
The goblins who were ready to go out moved in an orderly manner according to the orders of the goblins in command.
* * *
The main body of the mercenaries has reached the wall.
They could not help laughing as they looked at the large army of monsters blocking their way.
“What is that again?”
“Are you really goblins? ha ha ha.”
I couldn’t believe it, but as I’ve heard, goblins were living under the walls.
I couldn’t help but laugh at the fact that something like this was being called the Principality of Soleil.
In addition, it was clear that there were helpers among the humans, looking at the way they built the castle nicely and prepared for the sit-in.
The leader of the Leven Mercenary Corps shouted.
“A wickedly wicked monster dared not invade the territory of humans and built a village! The owner abandoned the territory, drive them out and occupy the territory!”
“Wow!”
“Wow!”
The mercenaries shouted.
What kind of cake is this?
Land without an owner was literally money that had fallen on the side of the road.
If you make a contribution here, it will not be a dream to make a name for yourself or obtain a title.
The goblins lost their spirits at the shouts of the humans they had never heard of.
Troops with low morale cannot fully demonstrate their strength on the battlefield.
The first-generation goblins, who were born and raised in the Devil’s Land and were familiar with battles, raised their weapons.
“These weak bastards! Are you guys still proud goblins! Raise your arms! Keek! As you fight back as warriors, the goblin god will protect you!”
At that, the goblins’ eyes came alive again.
Goblin God.
Although they had never seen it in person, they grew up listening to the first generation of goblins, and their faith in the goblin god was deeply rooted in their hearts.
In particular, the goblin god’s heroic story was enough to set the childhood of many young goblins on fire, and his good story (?), which gained weight as rumors grew, was enough to wet the eyes of young goblins.
The morale of the goblins, who had united under their faith, grew stronger than before.
“Tear and kill the humans! Leave no one alive! Kieh!”
“Kiyi!”
“Keew!”
It’s still a strange combination.
However, the 100,000 monsters’ howls seemed to have a clear effect on humans as well.
It was felt that the momentum of the mercenaries had decreased a little.
The receptionist, who was watching the situation under the tree, salivated.
“Mmm.”
“It looks like you came here on purpose.”
Full plate armor and polished sword.
In addition to that, seeing the advance with the cavalry, it was clear that the person who had previously been the commander was tactically commanding the troops.
Of course, since they are in the position of holding a sit-in, they say the situation is more advantageous than them, but it is also true that I am a little worried about how much the goblins who have just started learning swordsmanship will be able to do.
That moment.
The leader of the Leven Mercenary Corps shouted with mana in his voice.
“Surrender now! If you quietly leave the principality, I will spare your life!”
The goblin, who was given a name by Ray and was in charge of the leader of the knights, replied.
“Our God said. The dog who buried something was angry, so he was right. Stop barking in useless places and go back to the kennel.”
It’s really hard to talk about who learned it from.
When Ray’s figure was reflected from him for a moment, the receiving committee was taken aback.
“He is also a saint. You taught me good things in the dungeon.”
Soyoung was amazed.
I never thought they’d buried the remnants of it even in the goblins.
In a way, it was even respectable.
When the goblin, whom he thought was a mere insignificant thing, openly humiliated him, the leader’s face turned red.
“…Those who don’t know how precious their lives are. I will kill you as you wish!”
The captain drew his sword.
Accordingly, the mercenaries in the back pulled out their swords one by one.
The scene of the soldiers pulling out their swords in line with each other was worthy of being called a grand spectacle.
Let them resolute their will to fight.
The goblins also burned their fighting spirit.
The goblins equipped with sharp-edged weapons raised their swords.
Whoop-!
When mana is injected into a sword made of mithril and steel, a bluish sword aura appears.
The leader’s eyes widened as the process was so neat.
“Come to the cow sword!”
Even the mercenaries were shocked when ten thousand goblins raised their sword auras without missing a single one.
Aura users are so advanced that they can be called the elite.
There were not dozens of such people, but a number close to 10,000.
While the leader opened his mouth and was dazed at the unexpected power.
The commander goblins took the lead and charged.
“All charge!”
“Keew!”
“Keeeh!”
All of them are rushing without any special tactics with their sword aura pulled out, but it can’t be that scary.
The mercenaries hesitated and stepped back.
“Now retreat for a moment!”
The leader’s cry was colorless.
The mercenaries were already running backwards.
“Follow me! Kill them all!”
“Don’t let me live! In the name of the goblin god, purify those who try to steal the holy land!”
If you watch what they say, you will be mistaken for the line of the holy war.
What was absurd was that the receivers did the same.
They, who were dazed for a moment and bruised, moved belatedly.
“Soyoung!”
“I know!”
Moving swiftly, she chased after the mercenaries and threw a raincoat.
Wedge-Ae-Ae-!
Poo-!
puck-!
When a raincoat is applied to the head, mana bursts out and the mercenary’s new form collapses.
As Hong-young and Sa-young dealt with the laggard mercenaries, their retreat changed like wolves herding sheep.
“Stay in formation! I won’t let anyone who leaves!”
“Don’t be scattered!”
Urgent cries were heard here and there, but it was impossible for the mercenaries, who were busy with their lives, to follow the order, not if they were well-trained soldiers.
As a result, the damage was even greater.
“Quaaaaagh!”
“Buy and save me!”
Only three guards slaughtered dozens of mercenaries.
The goblins that followed subdued the wandering mercenaries, and surprisingly, the goblin mages in the rear fired magic and prevented formation.
A truly amazing sight.
The magic was so subtly nestled that as soon as they tried to unite a little, magic rained down from the sky.
All these days, they were struggling to find out if they would become a proper force on the battlefield, but wasn’t it all useless!
Soyoung cheered.
“Let’s chase it like this!”
Now was the chance.
Since they couldn’t reduce their numbers enough, it was better to use this opportunity to reduce their numbers as much as possible.
Like a fish out of water.
The security guard moved among the mercenaries and eliminated those who could be dangerous.
It was the moment when the goblins took the first battle between goblins and humans.
