Episode 434
Episode 139. The reason why Hugo couldn’t leave the southern part of Matan (2)
How many monsters did he kill? I haven’t counted it, but no matter how small it is, it will exceed 10,000. Among them, there were many high-ranking monsters, including Sellove who had lost its owner.
It didn’t take 2 hours to clean up that monster.
“Whoa!”
The moment he finally broke through the encirclement and left the border area, Yuma stood tall and let out a deep breath. He didn’t look very tired, but his hair was wet with sweat.
“Hey heck heck! Is it over…?”
“Hi go!”
Then, one by one, the black wolves that had been running close to Yuma fell to the ground like wooden dolls.
Those who could at least talk to Yuma were in better condition. As soon as Yuma stopped moving, not a few people bit into crab foam or went into seizures and passed out.
It was a disaster that occurred while following Yuma with his stamina that had fallen to the bottom.
“Hee-Buck-Hee-Buck!”
“Kaaak!”
The fallen members groaned.
In the meantime, Yuma ran to the back again and took care of the stormtroopers. The condition of the three Yugir Kagor Chipen, who took care of the dropouts in the last room, seemed no better than that of the regular members.
still.
Not a single person was abandoned or died. The Black Wolves followed Yuma with extreme mental strength.
“You are out of hell.”
“At that time, there was a time when I held out against a million people in the East. I mean with you. Anyway, I lived. I lived.”
Outside the encirclement, the sky was amazingly clear. To the extent that the black blood of the Demons, which had been tainting his vision until now, was colorless. That also meant that the rescue time was only a few hours.
Excluding the travel time, both the recapture of the Jetten Territory and the rescue of the Black Wolves were completed within a day.
“Yugir.”
The fallen Yugir nodded.
“If you meet the dragons, the black wolves I saved today will go to the Empire. You know?”
“okay. has disappeared. Matan.”
“It’s not completely over, but in fact, the damage was close to destruction. Worgs will now have to work in the Empire until the war is over.”
Saying that, Yuma smiled bitterly.
Mattan and the Empire have not been on good terms for a very long time. In the position of Satan, especially if it was an empire, it was to the point where it was inevitable to tremble.
Among them, the Black Wolves, a group that was the symbol of Satan and made it possible for him to exist as a ‘Matan’ in front of the Empire, was one of those who hated the Empire the most in the world.
Of course, he treated Yuma as a comrade despite being a member of the Empire, but liking Yuma did not mean he liked the Empire as well.
Will they be able to adapt and live in an empire without Yuma?
The black wolves of Matan that Yuma knew were people who would die if they died and would not obey the laws of the empire. Even if it was a life saved by Yuma, a member of the Empire.
So I was worried.
If they cause a disturbance in the Empire in their absence or do something worthy of being ostracized, or if they come into conflict with the members of the Empire… It doesn’t matter if the Worgs act a bit
rough when they’re with him. . It was enough to control and protect. But now was not the case.
“know. what to say Recognition.”
“I saved the Worgs not because of an order from the Empire, but because they are my former friends and comrades. The black wolves will know that too well, so they won’t be grateful to the Empire. I don’t want that either.”
“Uncomfortable. summer solstice. don’t you.
we.”
“I don’t care if I’m uncomfortable. However, I don’t think I can handle it if there is an accident between the warriors of the empire and the black wolves when I’m not there.”
However, it was not easy to ask the black wolves to bend first. Because I know them better than anyone else. The same was true of the fact that the Empire had pressured Matan throughout its history.
“no. Empire. of. Yu…
“Ah! Yugir-senpai’s tone is frustrating. I can’t hear you. Hey hey hey. I won’t buy it. We Worgs do not think of the Yuma of the Empire as the Empire of Yuma. And now it is a crisis for the whole of humanity.”
Kagor, who was listening, jumped up and said.
Yuma suppressed his surprise and stared at Kagor.
“So don’t worry and go south. I still dislike the Empire, but even if it’s us, it’s not that rare. As soon as you arrive in the Empire, as soon as you feel better, you will be assigned a defense area to guard.”
It was something I had never even imagined.
The fact that a member of the Black Wolf who said this to himself could be Kagor.
As Kagor spoke, none of the members showed a hint of resistance.
“Even if there is a guy who craves it to some extent, I will endure it without thinking about it, so don’t worry about it. Instead, after the war, if we are all alive, we should be sent back to our homes.”
“A natural story. Thank you, Kagor. If you need anything during your stay, let Puang tell you about it.”
Yuma and the Black Wolves stood there for about 30 minutes and fired flares.
Soon, a black dragon followed the signal.
“Isn’t that a blackout curtain?”
The black dragon’s name is Mitadel Lin.
When the first Dragon Lord Mahatrisha took her seat at the top of Puang, it was the dragon that shaded her from the sun while she was talking to Yuma.
[Hey, this goddamn human is messing around with his snout again… It looks like the mission was a success.]
Mitadellin landed on the ground and said, looking at the members. Even after seeing the dragon, the members just supported their tired bodies on the ground.
“It’s nice to see you. Call in more dragons and bring them to the capital. And tell me that I went to help Captain Jean Hugo right away.”
[You’re acting like a bell.]
“Isn’t good good? If you show respect to the Balaur every time, you won’t be able to go to war.”
[Hmm!]
It was no different that Yuma could command the dragons casually.
As the operation plan was in full swing, Maha Trisha’s strict order fell.
From now on, all dragons can be moved by Yuma’s needs, and his requests are always given top priority.
It was a privilege granted to the only being in charge of the assault team in the human army, and the only being with the ability of ‘creation’.
Quite a number of dragons expressed dissatisfaction with Mahatrisha’s order, but she, who was so gentle, dismissed the complaints in an instant, showing her wrath for the first time in thousands of years.
In the current human world, Yuma’s existence was as important as that.
[Call the other dragons, and there is another dragon you called the Shading Curtain nearby, so ride it until you reach the southern part of Matan.] “Are you talking about
Helmione?”
[Yeah, he probably appreciates you quite a bit.]
“That’s great. I thought it would be awkward to go with a dragon whose name I don’t even know.”
Mitadelin drew a strange pattern in the sky using dragon magic.
It was the language of the dragons to announce the gathering, but it was impossible for the monsters to read or see the huge glowing letters.
“It would be nice if I could use something like dragon word magic. That looks so convenient.”
[…You’ve got something bigger than that, but you’re saying that kind of thing.]
“Oh, that’s right. Shading… No Mita Delrin. There is something I really want to ask you.”
[What is it?]
“Please tell them that the defense area that the Black Wolves rescued today will be in charge of in the Empire is assigned under the jurisdiction of the knight ‘Mars’.”
[Okay.]
“Are there any special changes to the situation in the empire?”
[They say that the gateway connecting the East and the West will be completed sooner or later thanks to Lord’s efforts.]
“What about the news from the East?”
[Soon the dragons dispatched to Kantra will return. The situation is probably not worse than in the West, so don’t worry too much.]
“Okay.”
The dragons, passing by the boundary area and discovering the signal of Mitadeline, gathered one by one to Yuma’s place.
The Black Wolves laid the severely injured personnel on the backs of the dragons that arrived first. In the process, the dragons did not show any displeasure at all by riding humans on their backs.
It’s different from the Dragon War.
Like the dragons of that time, the dragons of today did not treat humans insignificantly or kill them recklessly. Whether it was because of his heart or because he couldn’t help it because of an order, it was changed because of Yuma.
Finally, the three stormtroopers and a few others climbed onto Mitadelin’s back, and Helmion landed in front of Yuma.
“Please take care of the boss! Yuma!”
“Please take care of the black wolf child!”
“Take care of that old Cahel Povian too!”
The members flying on dragons shouted.
‘I thought that one day, unlike before the return, there would be something to save Captain Hugo’s life… but I didn’t know it would be a moment like this. Captain Airani Hugo should at least bow to Kriesha-sama when he goes back.’
Helmion turned around and lowered his tail. It was like dealing with a superior.
[The southern part of Matan has much more demonic energy than the border area, and there are many dangerous demons. So it looks like it will take three days to fly.]
“Can’t we go faster?
I’ll take care of all demons that cling to you.”
[Then let’s shorten it to two days. With my life as collateral.]
“I’m a bit sorry if you said that.”
[No, all the Balaur are indebted to you, so there is no need for that. And I lost my spirit family to Kujarato…]
“Ah.”
[Anyway, I will fly as quickly as possible. Get some sleep while I’m on my way, I’ll wake you up after another aerial attack that’s too much for me to handle. It’s the third battle after Jetten and the border area, and I haven’t had a break.]
“Thank you, Helmione.”
As Helmione said, the road to southern Matan was much darker than the border area. Also, since there were a lot of monsters that could fly like wyverns, Yuma didn’t have long to rest.
But that was enough. Yuma was able to reach the southern part of Matan with most of his health restored.
The first place Yuma went to was the Black Wolf Crew’s southern fortress, where the rest of the members except for Hugo were gathered. The priority was to go there and figure out the situation and the exact location of Hugo.
“Helmion, please drop me off at this point.”
[After all, you came further than expected in two days. It’s okay to go in more.]
“No, Magi is too thick.
If you enter more than this, it will be dangerous for Helmion to return. We’re almost there anyway.”
[Hmm, then I know. I wish you no luck.]
