Chapter 336 30 Reinforcements (6)
Inside a Dark Cave.
Gyro looked up at the ceiling with an exhausted face.
Through a small gap, I could see the sky as dark as here.
a few days ago.
He heard shocking news from the vigilant orcs.
“Chwiik the great Graxar has destroyed Luna’s fortress. Now that there are no people to help you, you’d better think about how to survive as a slave. Chwiik especially you. If you keep looking at me like that, I will eat your eyes alive.”
Orc pointed to the gyro.
Saying that Luna’s fortress was destroyed.
It was shocking.
It’s been a while since Graxar left with his forces, and I didn’t expect to hear news like this already.
From then on, Gyro began to completely break down mentally. Luna’s downfall could be said to be her own responsibility.
The fall of the fortress would not have happened so quickly if they had not planned an operation outside the fortress and had waited for Roman Dmitri to arrive.
‘… it’s gyro You pushed Luna to the precipice of destruction.’
I was out of breath.
People who are often dragged along.
screams from afar.
At first, he tried to endure the situation with dignity, but from a certain point on, everything around him seemed to blame him.
Among those trapped in the cave were soldiers.
They only followed the commander’s orders, but the commander was fooled and ended up being stored for food.
I forgot about hunger.
face went pale
Even though he was alive, he didn’t show the face of the living, then the orc threw something in front of him as if mocking him.
Took.
“If you want to live on Chwiik, eat it. dragging.”
It was a bizarre laugh.
The orc burst into laughter with his snub-nosed nose closed and disappeared into the distance.
People’s eyes were focused.
on the floor.
There was a chunk of meat.
It was something that people who had been starving for several days might have spit and rushed at, but everyone’s faces were stained with fear.
It had to be. It was a chunk of meat presumed to be human.
It was something that was cut off around the arm, fed, and thrown, and people couldn’t bear to touch it even if it was on the verge of death.
It was disastrous.
Everyone’s expressions were distorted by the anger that welled up inside them.
however.
Gyro approached the chunk of meat.
People looked at me in amazement.
Contrary to the idea that he might be giving up on being human, Gyro grabbed a chunk of meat and dissected it.
It was not meant to be eaten.
When they dissected all of them dripping with blood, the bones that supported them inside were revealed.
He hid the chunk of meat in a corner and secretly took the large bone.
“Everyone be quiet. Even if I die, I plan to take some of them with me.”
muddy voice.
He couldn’t eat and his voice was low.
Gyro moved to a corner and began scratching the bone behind his back carefully so that the sound wouldn’t leak out.
Buck buck buck. I heard a small noise that bothered me.
Gyro moved his hand tirelessly to make the bone’s tip sharp, strong enough to pierce the orc’s tough skin.
snow field inspection.
his life is over
The last thing to do was to die as a human being and as a human being.

Buck buck.
Buck buck buck.
I had a lot of thoughts.
if.
Really, if I had waited for Roman Dmitri, could I have reversed the situation?
‘It must have been impossible.’
There are only 30 people.
Looking back, it wasn’t enough power to discuss victory, and Roman Dmitri proved that he didn’t care about the welfare of the Luna Kingdom with the size of the reinforcements.
That’s just a minimal courtesy.
Since they couldn’t openly ignore Luna’s difficulties, they sent enough troops to show condescension when the war was won.
understood.
There was no reason for Dmitri, who had no interaction with Luna, to sacrifice for Luna.
‘Is there no hope in the first place?’
Isabelle’s disappearance.
The reason was unknown.
What is certain is that she struggled to thwart Cronus’ plan, and the result was directly linked to Luna’s destruction.
A feeling of resentment arose. Isabelle is the Queen of Luna.
No matter how much a person worships a god, the important thing to her is not the safety of mankind, but Luna’s people.
Cayden says
Roman Dmitri put Dmitri’s safety first.
I was envious.
Perhaps Gyro wanted a monarch like Roman Dmitri to lead the Luna Kingdom.
‘Luna is not a country that worships gods because there are choices. A cold that humans could not handle came and a saint was born, so there was no way for us to live unless we believed in God. Oh God. is this really what you want Luna served you more sincerely than anyone else, but why do we have to suffer like this while sacrificing for the Salamander continent?’
My stomach was boiling.
Sacrifice is a religiously important element.
He needed someone to rebuke and criticize without knowing Isabel’s sincerity.
that is.
was human
A weak and insignificant being.
In the depths of despair, Gyro realized how contradictory the harmonious world was.
‘Even if Isabel hadn’t gone missing, the peace of Arcadia would have collapsed someday.’
Took.
I stopped my hand.
The bones were sharpened.
Enough to handle a few orcs.
I breathed slowly.
waited for the time
Explode the last remaining power to subdue the orcs entering inside at once. If possible, save as many people trapped inside as possible.
Gyro risked his life.
His face, hidden in the darkness, was like that of a demon, and his shining red eyes lowered his head to hide his murderous intent.
Finally.
Sigh.
The door is open.
My heart was beating thump thump.
widely.
step inside.
As Gyro exploded mana and rushed forward, an unexpected sight unfolded before his eyes.
“… Ke Cayden?!”
“Gyro!”
I opened my eyes.
presence in front of your eyes.
Cayden, who was stained with blood, was there, not an orc who was persecuting humans.
* * *
The feelings I had at first.
It was embarrassing.
The orcs clearly said that Luna’s fortress had been destroyed, but how did Cayden appear here?
Luna’s soldiers cleared the area.
Behind them, the corpses of orcs were scattered on the floor.
“Gyro. The war is not over yet.”
“… What are you talking about?”
I saw Cayden.
He first brought water, but Gyro refused to drink it and showed his eyes telling him to tell the truth.
“While I crossed the endless mountain range. Luna’s fortress fell to the orcs. I thought Luna’s future was over at that time, but Roman Dmitri-sama thought differently. I told you how to get Luna back with only 30 men. It was an impossible operation. Even while executing the operation, I thought it was bound to fail.”
drip drip
blood dripped
No matter how many orcs he slaughtered, Cayden’s face was stained with blood.
“The result is as you checked now. We recaptured Luna’s fortress and slaughtered ten thousand orcs.”
I was astonished.
30 people.
Undoubtedly, it is not a number that determines the outcome of a war.
Even though he was from Arcadia, who was not familiar with war, he taught me common sense in the book on warfare that he had read to the point of wear out.
How ridiculous Caden’s words were. So there was awe.
Roman Dmitri didn’t think of Luna’s comfort, but he really thought that 30 people would help.
Moment.
I was speechless.
I was happy that Luna wasn’t over, but I tightly clenched my fists with miserable feelings.
‘After all, I was the problem.’
Roman Dmitry.
he was the savior
If I had waited for a few days, the situation would have completely changed, but Gyro did not know the truth and pushed Luna into the pit of despair.
It was a very harsh reality.
What he wanted was the peace of the Luna Kingdom, but in the end, dragging the troops with his strong argument became a fatal defeat.
I wanted to die.
I wanted to be freed from guilt by biting my tongue.
but.
that was a cowardly act.
Gyro wanted to put an end to the responsibility of defeat by dying fighting the orcs on the battlefield.
“Where is he?”
expression has changed.
From Roman Dmitry.
he became
Cayden packed the gyro and told me why I had to hurry from now on.
“Roman Dmitri-sama has left for an all-out war against Graxar. So, get your mind right. We must quickly regroup and help Roman Dmitri before the battle is over.”

Around that time.
The situation of the elves was not good.
A considerable portion of the Elves’ territory had already been captured by the Orcs pushing forward with their numbers.
“Attack!”
“Don’t let the enemies come in anymore!”
Pot-Pot-
Pot- An arrow was fired.
Elves fired arrows while moving swiftly on top of a bare tree whose shape was only maintained by the energy of the World Tree.
puck.
“Quek.”
“Chwiik don’t back down!”
The orc hit by the arrow fell to the ground.
The number of Orcs who had already died was not small, but the Orcs rushed in as if the deaths of their kin were nothing.
A space that was once called the forest of elves.
The number of elves guarding the World Tree here was about 10,000.
Even if an elf fired an arrow and killed 3 or 4 orcs, the orcs following Graxar boasted more than twice as many numbers as that.
Man-in-the-middle tactics.
It was a fight with a predictable ending.
Graxar blocked the way and blew off the elven warrior’s head with one blow.
Kwajik.
“Chwiik funny guy.”
Blood spattered.
Graxar’s entire body was stained with blood.
fight in the past.
He always stood at the forefront and directly defeated the strongest-looking enemies.
Graxar was a special being.
From the moment he held a weapon in his hand, he naturally realized mana, and the Orc warriors who looked down on him were defeated by Graxar and acknowledged that he was the strongest.
Best Orc Lord ever.
The beings who promoted him as an Orc Lord, whether by force or intelligence, had no choice but to acknowledge Graxar’s talent.
and.
Ever since he seized power, Graxar dreamed of conquering Arcadia.
The stupid aliens didn’t know the truth.
Even if Isabel hadn’t gone missing, Arcadia would one day be stained with war because of her.
“Chwiik advance! Don’t back down!”
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
exploded the aura
He gave strength to the Orcs with his race-specific assimilation ability and threw a huge ax with all his might.
All the trees caught in the ax shattered with a loud crackling sound.
The elves who were walking up and down the tree fell as they were, and three or four orcs per elf rushed at them and hacked their bodies to pieces.
A scream was heard.
The end was approaching.
If even the elves collapsed, there would be no one to oppose the orcs in Arcadia.
It was then.
“Cheak!”
“Aww!”
from the rear.
A strange noise was heard.
Graxar stopped.
It was a sound that shouldn’t have been heard.
With the elves in a corner, who the hell would attack the orcs from behind?
“Chwiik surprise attack! Humans are attacking from the rear!”
“Chwiik man?”
An orc’s report.
Graxar’s gaze turned to the rear.
Moment.
I felt eerie.
The Luna Kingdom has already perished.
They were the only human-made nation in Arcadia, and there were no humans other than them.
Then there was only one thing that this situation meant.
The existence that Luna’s soldiers mentioned at the end of the interrogation.
An army of about 30 men, led by a human he had never heard of, who had crossed an endless mountain range.
Finally.
I could see the scenery behind me.
Seeing Luna’s flag flapping, her expression hardened.
‘no way.’
sure
That Luna’s soldiers are alive.
It meant that only Calott’s forces had suffered.
In other words, a man beyond the endless mountain range whose name he does not know has overturned the difference of ten thousand.
This.
It was a variable that did not exist in Graxar’s plan.
