200,000.
This was the size of the human army that Habitz had gathered while invading the Central Continent.
Although they were incorporated through ideological education, the effect of education was minimal anyway.
‘Just saving their lives was a miracle…
but being incorporated into the army of hell that was on the verge of conquering the world was what they had hoped for.
‘If you win the war, you can gain enormous wealth. No, I might be able to become king.’
As the number of humans decreased, competitors also decreased.
‘The things that 6 billion people enjoy are shared between 200,000 of us. Even by simple calculation, the share that goes to each person is…
everything that the population of approximately 3,000 enjoyed.
‘Because that’s how much a single soldier is.’ His face, who had been a unit commander and was now a general, was flushed with excitement
.
‘My life is blooming too.’
The reason humans don’t want to go to hell is simply because there is no pleasure there.
‘It’s a good thing I joined Hell’s army.’
People were willing to sell their souls for money.
When Iruki and Balkan had a battle of wits, everything was clear.
There were rules and variables were controllable.
Between them, the strategy was either perfect or lacking, and they did not go beyond that range in any situation.
However, if you take your eyes off the picture and look outside, the world is actually filled with numerous probabilities moving around.
It can be good or bad, you can gain everything or lose everything.
‘If you just want to compete to see who’s lucky, I’ll accept it.’
Iruki looked down at the map.
“The odds are half and half anyway.”
The place that caught my eye was the Taytra Mountain Range, which had remained in my mind for a long time.
Deep in the mountains of the Tetra Mountains.
A tall man, as thin as a skeleton, and a girl with black hair covering one eye were walking down a mountain path.
The man was wearing round sunglasses, had a long face like a horse, and had a slightly crooked nose.
The girl was no exception in terms of gloomy mood, but her skin was as white as jade and she had a gloomy appearance.
The man’s nickname is Gitaruman.
He was a member of the famous Seven Magical Girls in Black Line and one of the world’s 100 most dangerous people.
He was also a magician who was considered the best in the world, along with Sein, in mental magic.
The reason why he is called Gitaru Man is because he has a D-class object < Gitaru >.
〈Gitaru〉, which is probably a word meaning guitar, is not a militantly powerful object.
However, it was the best equipment for musicians who could play the sounds of all instruments at the same time.
Silence Endless silence.
The two had not exchanged a word since four years ago, but that silence has now become language.
The girl suddenly stopped walking.
After checking the time, the girl went into the forest while the guitar man sat down and chewed some beef jerky.
After looking around indifferently, she pulled down her panties and sat down to urinate.
pee.
When I left the forest after finishing my errand, all of Gitaruman’s beef jerky was in my mouth.
U 99
??????
The girl stared.
Then, Gitaruman spat out what he was chewing into his palm and held it out.
A lump of crushed beef jerky.
But the girl willingly picked it up, put it in her mouth, and mumbled deliciously.
The two still remain silent. As the guitar man stood up with his guitar case, the girl followed him, mumbling her beef jerky.
An endless grassland.
Coincidentally, the Valkyries and the Army of Hell were facing off at a distance of 500 meters.
“Tsk! “I can’t believe I met you here.”
While the Valkyrie unit, which had been instructed to avoid combat as much as possible, felt uncomfortable, the army of Hell was anxious to make a mark as soon as possible.
“I ran away like a rat and finally I see you. “Guys, get ready to be swept away.”
The army of Hell was full of confidence because the difference in troops was a whopping four times that.
And at that moment, a man and a girl entered the middle of the meadow where they were confronting each other.
“What is that?”
The Valkyrie commander opened his eyes wide and shouted.
“hey! Avoid it quickly! “This will soon become a battlefield!”
As I walked away without even pretending to listen, ridicule poured in from the army of hell.
“Fuhahaha! You came here on your own to die! Women are pretty even, aren’t they? “Hey, if you want to live, come here.” Would even the world’s villains instinctively catch someone who falls off a cliff?
Even the Valkyrie commander, who considered the deaths of civilians to be trivial, found this situation strangely disturbing.
“Hey, scare me away.”
It was clear that they had gone crazy during the war.
A sharpshooter from the archer unit raised his bow to the sky and fired an arrow.
The arrow, which had drawn a parabolic curve, made a whining sound and struck right in front of the two people.
The Gitaruman and the girl stopped walking. With his gaze fixed as if he was reflecting on the meaning of the arrow, he slowly sat down and opened his guitar case.
“what? Crazy guy…
After finishing tuning in the middle of the battlefield, the guitar man slowly stood up and plucked the strings.
Jiing.
Unlike a typical guitar, a thick, long sound that seemed to be filled with electricity resonated.
Title: Choya.
Lyricist and composer: Guitaruman. Although the instrument was only a guitar, numerous tones were played simultaneously along with the fast beat.
The girl started singing.
She was sold to the emperor.
Her voice was low for a woman, and her expression was like a cat that had eaten something bitter.
Valkyrie and the Army of Hell listened to her song in silence for a while.
It’s my first time, but I’m not afraid. You’re the king, so you can
swing it however you want.
Guitaruman added a very low-pitched chorus.
I Love You
At the same time, soldiers from both units, who seemed to have been caught randomly, rolled over their eyes and died.
“Gagging!”
The death toll was 111, as if by design.
I wish the thing that was tearing through my body was huge. As the girl turned her head to the left and danced like a military dance, hundreds of thousands of troops followed her movements.
Even while the horse was startled and raised its front paws, the soldiers’ movements were the same as if they were being controlled.
“damn! what’s this! Wake!”
The general of Hell’s army shouted, but in reality, he too was dancing to the music.
‘This is magic. It can be easily solved with a schema. But why…
can’t I even lift a finger?
‘no way?’
A person flashes across the general’s mind for a moment.
“Damn it! All troops retreat! It’s Gitaro Man!”
Among the Seven Magical Girls who were once the bane of the world, she is the most secretive.
In particular, he was said to be the world’s best in crowd control technology and unmatched in history.
‘It’s the Four Gates of Death!’
It was the ability to artificially generate the electrical signals in the brain that humans have just before death through sound waves.
The girl sang passionately.
Morning never comes!
“Huh oh oh!”
An additional 8,888 people died. The moment the
“I Love You
” chorus followed, as many as 22,222 people collapsed, vomiting blood.
Salute to the Emperor’s greed!
When the girl raised her capital in salute, all the soldiers put their palms next to their eyebrows.
Your child won’t be happy, so
the girl turned her head to the right and stamped her feet as she moved, and soldiers were trampled by her feet one after another.
“These bastards…!”
The Valkyrie commander, who was stepping on the limb-like corpse of his subordinate, gritted his teeth.
“You son of a bitch! What do you think about human life…! “Wow!”
Exactly 40,000 people died, and the commander was no exception among that crowd.
With you in my arms…
The girl finished the song quietly.
I’ll drown you.
When the song ended at 3 minutes and 48 seconds, there were only two people standing on the plain.
Deaths: 248,247.
While the girl stood up with her chin raised, the guitar man put the guitar in the case.
And, keeping the same silence as when he first came, he crossed the plain with the girl.
2 hours later.
The general military of both humanity and demons heard the report that their units were annihilated almost at the same time.
“There are no survivors?”
The frightened soldier reported with his chin shaking.
“yes. But so does the enemy. He appears to be a person from the third world, and according to expert opinion…
“According to?”
The soldier raised his head.
“They say it is most likely a guitar man.”
Vulcan blinked.
“Gitaru Man? “Gitaru Man from the 7 Magical Girls?”
“Yes, that is…
At that point, Vulcan closed his ears and thought.
‘You mean you came out into the world? No, it would be correct to say that we summoned him. Damn I missed that.’
As the army of hell swept the world, the place where he was hiding disappeared.
“What should I do? Should we chase him?” Vulcan had no answer.
‘The combat power is not at a level to worry about.
It is extremely vulnerable in person-to-person combat.
That may be why he was hiding, but his ability as a recluse could not be ignored.
“it’s okay. “There is no need to chase.”
“yes?”
“It was force majeure. Just think of it as being hit by a natural disaster, like a typhoon, earthquake, or lightning strike.”
As Vulcan hit the table, the soldier quickly closed his mouth that had been open in a daze.
“damn! “Because it’s unlucky.”
Or was it really unlucky?
‘I was so drunk. The reason the Valkyrie soldier didn’t even respond to my handshake was…
I thought it was because he couldn’t react at first.
“It means he’s as crazy as me.”
The face of the messenger entering Valkyrie Headquarters was very flushed, unlike usual.
“report! In the Gera Plain…
50,000 of our troops were exchanged for 200,000 of the demon army, so it could be said to be a victory.
“Ki Taruman?”
While the commanders were each sharing their opinions, one of them turned to Iruki and asked.
“Did you know?”
“no.”
It was a possible strategy because I didn’t know.
“If I had known, I would have prepared. It must have been included in the strategy. Of course, the military apostle over there. However…
the reason he was able to guess what Vulcan didn’t know was because his military power was overwhelmingly weak.
“For Balkan, 10,000 soldiers are not much, but for me, even 100 soldiers are important. “To overcome the asymmetry of power, we must save at least one more person.”
In the Tetra Mountains, negligible troop losses occurred frequently.
“I thought there was something there. Of course, I wasn’t sure it would help us. “It was a gamble.”
“So you’re saying that you bet without knowing which side would have the advantage?”
“If the plan proceeds normally, the probability of us winning is less than 10 percent.”
Iruki raised his finger.
“But if Balkan takes a gamble, the odds go up to 50 percent. “I can’t afford not to run a surplus business like this.”
If we had lost, everything would have been over.
“Only God and numbers can shoulder the responsibility of humans. This is a famous quote from Servant Mage Veronice. “I just chose the one with the higher odds of winning.” Even so, it was a huge liver.
“Anyway, Gitaruman appears. “It can be said that the world has gone as far as it can go.”
Iruki agreed.
“Probably eating out. My guess is that it will be extremely vulnerable in person-to-person combat. “It would be a case where the power amplifies as the number of individuals increases.”
Still, it was powerful enough.
“Secretly track Guitaru Man’s movements. A small elite would be better.” “Yes, please leave it to me.”
“It is not time to feel relieved yet. We also lost close to 50,000 troops.”
Iruki looked at the map.
‘But…:
Numerous strategies were created to buy time through the cracks created by Balkan’s mistakes.
“day.”
Iruki raised his index finger.
“The 2nd Corps just needs to stop us for one day.”
An unprecedented bomb is being placed on humanity.
