Chapter 389 – Chapter 389 Counter Attack-7
The demons reacted first to Cheonho’s mobilization order.
The number of people they led and rose up to was 35,000! Right now, the number of people that is 40% of the Red Union’s entire army.
Blue Seal’s counterattack, the basement summoned uniques.
Meeting room.
Enlil, who had heard the news, spoke hastily.
“Idiots are a military race.”
“Tell me specifically.”
I’ve heard a lot of stories that the underground demons are martial artists.
Gasiel shook his head.
“Each one is excellent. They do not collapse even when their commander falls. Soon someone will fill that position. Under no circumstances do you get confused. It is a strong disease.”
“Is that the characteristic of demons?”
I asked Yegrina, but she kept her eyes closed.
Instead, Yura said.
“Yes, I know because I grew up with the demons… They are really strong and brave one by one. Rare or not, it doesn’t matter. They are most specialized in group battles in Wordsland.”
“I can’t break that chain of command… If you kill the centurion who commands 100 people, the next rank will soon fill the position. All demons have their ranks set to single digits, and they absolutely obey their superiors.”
Enlil added awkwardly.
Enlil’s main specialty is assassination, picking only the commander in a melee situation and destroying the enemy army.
However, it is difficult to achieve that effect on demons.
‘If Enlil were to say that, the commanding officer’s sniping wouldn’t work for the demons.’
Jiha looked at Yura and asked.
“Will they listen to what Ashira says?”
“… I don’t know Originally, Ashira and her older sister also belonged to the ranks. Even when she hadn’t grown up yet, she was in the top 20 and everyone expected her future… Being unique, her older sister was removed from the ranks. When her sister commands, she listens.”
“These are the guys.”
The race itself is robust in substance.
The story that Ashira was dropped from the ranks also meant that being unique meant treating her as a regular rather than honoring her existence.
She looked at the uniques in the conference room in the basement one by one.
Enlil, Yura, Barjet, Gasiel, Yegrina.
There are too many in one city.
“Gasiel, take Enlil and go to Larussa. Join forces with Asira to repel the demon army coming to La Russa, and then do not come to see me alone and go to Lingard.”
It was an order to bring Enlil and bring Leticia.
But both Gasiel and Enlil shook their heads.
“Wait, the demon moved, but I, the Elyos, should avoid it? I want to keep an eye on their trends.”
“I will, but I do not want to leave now. Send another woman.”
If Gasiel responded to the keyword of demons, Enlil was looking at the underground with concern.
When Enlil and Gasiel leave, the uniques that remain in this city are Yura, Barjet, and Yegrina.
I’ve known Yura for a long time, but she’s too docile, Barjet is hot-headed, and Yegrina can’t read her insides.
Enlil said earnestly.
“I want to stand by your side. Let me do that.”
“…”
As Enlil spoke earnestly, silence fell over the meeting hall.
Everyone was looking at Enlil with surprised eyes.
Of course, everyone knows that other women in this place have been embraced by Jiha either implicitly or definitely.
However, it was never mentioned openly or revealed so frankly.
Not another woman, but Enlil, the best to be proud of, begging like this in front of everyone.
The women admired or jealously awaited an answer from the underground.
“This is an order.”
The basement was just cut.
A housekeeper is a housekeeper, and public affairs are public affairs.
Although Ashira is guarding Larussa, her limbs may become dizzy if she is alone with her own people.
If cool-headed Enlil and Gasiel go, there will be no problem.
Enlil lowered his head helplessly.
“And Gasiel, you will be able to fight demons there as well. Don’t argue with Ashira, be nice. In battle, follow Ashira’s instructions.”
Ashira herself is a demon, so she knows her enemies well, and her military talent is excellent.
If we send Enlil and Gasiel as reinforcements, we will repel them without problems.
“… Is that an order too?”
“So, are you kidding?”
When the basement was cut, Gasiel cleaned it up.
“I understand, my mate. As ordered, go to Larussa and join forces with the Demon Woman Unique to defeat it, transport the Dark Elf Woman Unique to the elves in the Lingard area, and bring the Elf Woman Unique to your side. But after that, could you make time to talk to me?”
“Okay, leave right now.”
“… Take care of yourself.”
Enlil struggled to control his emotions and said goodbye.
When Enlil and Gasiel left the meeting room, all that remained were Yura, Barjet, and Yegrina.
“Barjet, as usual, help Brang with recruitment and training. We are focusing on calming the public sentiment.”
“… All right.”
Barjet nodded without saying anything.
After the incident in which she became Todan’s hostage, she seemed to have subtly changed.
She got up from her seat and said cautiously.
“… Do you have anything to say to me?”
“It’s too much, but I’ll put it off.”
“… It’s okay without it.”
She changed her tricorne hat and left the conference room.
Yegrina yawned at her and got up from her seat.
“Since it’s a siege against the demons, it sounds like it will be an interesting fight, right? What do you do with your luggage?”
“Are you sleeping. When the right guy pops up, I’ll call him.”
“Haha, you know Jim too well.”
Yegrina smiled contentedly and left.
All that was left was Yura, who looked at her underground with her worried eyes.
“Enlil, you were serious.”
“I know.”
She drew her line saying no more underground.
As Yura became quiet, she looked down at her map underground and was lost in her thoughts.
‘It’s farming… My current strength is 8,000, including what I absorbed. On the other hand, the Demon Army, which is said to be divided into two, is about 20,000. More than twice…’
Gadeon, this city occupied by the underworld, was a natural fortress.
A city surrounded by water, if the underground strategizes while playing unique sets, the demon army will win, no matter how elite it is.
‘It’s Pyrrhus’ victory.’
But there is nothing to be gained by winning like this.
Only the lack of provisions will be further reduced, and after the demon army is destroyed, other races will stand in the way.
‘Winning, but the form of winning is important…’
We need a victory that will sound the alarm that we must not dare to attack the Red Union and that we must prioritize the preservation of our species.
A victory so perfect that the mobilization order of Heaven could be ignored.
“You can’t do it through farming.”
“Yes?”
“Yura, call Brang.”
“Yes…”
Yura was puzzled, but obediently followed.
An order to summon a normal, not a rare, to Unique, but she is docile and obeys without any resistance.
Brang, who was waiting outside, came in quickly.
“Did you find it, Commander-in-Chief?”
“I give you 5,000 soldiers. You lead the sit-in.”
“Yes?”
“When the demon army comes, Yegrina and…”
Should I attach Yura or Barjet?
After thinking for a while, I chose the basement.
“I’ll leave Yura behind, so you take care of it. During the sit-in, your command is no different from me. Cut anyone who protests.”
“Second, Commander-in-Chief…”
It was an incredible greeting.
Of course, Brang’s swordsmanship is excellent, but after becoming an underground subordinate, he devoted himself wholeheartedly.
He is also very good at commanding his subordinates.
“My, my burden is too heavy for me. Please take it away.”
Brang even made her weak voice uncharacteristic of her.
Although others see her as a young man, she is actually a woman, and although she obeys the orders of her superiors, she is not good at winning the hearts of her subordinates.
And she was well aware of her own flaws.
“I know it’s heavy on you. Do it anyway.”
“What is that…”
If you’re going to leave her unique, Yura, why don’t you just give her her command?
Good opportunity, underground, she said firmly.
“In Red Union, existing ranks do not matter. Any good guy will rise above.”
“…”
Brang opened his eyes wide.
A declaration that was so shocking, and the head of the Red Union put it into his mouth.
Of course, underground himself was Common, but everyone considered this to be the only exception.
That’s not the case, Jiha made an official statement just now.
“Why did I appoint you as the commander of the sit-in? Because in terms of military talent, you are far superior to Yura and Yegrina.”
Even if Yura, her party, listens, she doesn’t hesitate.
Brang looked at Yura unconsciously as her face turned blue.
Actually, Yura didn’t seem to have any complaints.
“I wish you well in the future. Brandon.”
“… Will you really be okay with me? Commander?”
“Okay.”
Brang is the most useful talent in this situation.
But, as always, Jiha tried to add one more thing.
War is an extension of politics.
In this war to defeat the demon army, the underground was thinking of proudly declaring a proposition to Words Land.
Red Union does not give status based on rank!
Even if you have normal rank, if you have the ability, you can rise above Unique!
It was a clear declaration that everyone would know as they fought this war.
People who were dissatisfied with the existing grade society, the hearts of the tribes would immediately turn to the Red Union.
“Mo, I will defend the castle with my life!”
Brang was thrilled and bowed.
For her, who lied about her gender and lived as Narsha’s escort, it was a career she never dreamed of.
“While guarding Gadeon, everyone will write you a military command to follow your orders. Ignoring you is ignoring my orders.”
“Ah, I see. But what do you plan to do, Commander-in-Chief?”
The demon army is rushing in, but what will Ji-ha think of leaving the defense to Brang?
“I should go out and play.”
“… Yes?”
“I take 3,000 guerrilla troops out and command them. While I was doing it, I was organizing the nearby cities and villages…”
Underground said no more.
Knowing that underground has a big picture, Brang lowered his head.
“All right. I will trust you and follow you.”
“I will continue to send orders to Jeonseo-gu, so take it well. I’ll be leaving soon, so pull out 3,000.”
“All right!”
Brang left, shaking her voice.
All that was left was Yura. She stared at the basement and asked.
“Why are you Barjet?”
It doesn’t matter if you take orders from Brang.
However, I wonder why he bothered to choose Barjet as Jiha led the guerrilla army.
Underground laughed and said.
“You know more about demons?”
“Yes, I grew up among the demons, so I know their behavior and famous people better. I know something about Camilla-sama, who has now led an army of 20,000.”
The basement nodded and urged again.
Said Yura.
“You are a beautiful, old woman. To the demons, age means strength, and he is excellent at leading an army as well as personal strength. I heard it too, but it is said that he was very active during the Millennium War.”
“However?”
Yura said cautiously.
It can give underground people a prejudice, so we need to deliver it as objectively as possible.
“But after the war, they say he didn’t have a chance to play an active role. Moreover, it is said that she does not really like her older sister, Ashra.”
“Is it jealousy of the younger woman?”
Yura tilted her head.
The stronger the demon, the stronger the magical power, the longer the lifespan and the more youthful it is.
What the basement is saying is incomprehensible.
“Are you married?”
“It didn’t happen when I was there. After that, I don’t know…”
Yura spoke slowly.
“I’ve heard that too, but Ashira-san wasn’t recognized by her demons from the beginning either. However, she continued to build credit and be recognized, so Ashira-san got all the power from her in the local battle against Purple.”
“It’s a new force…”
So, to the veterans of the demon tribe who were active until the Millennium War, Ashira was a newbie who suddenly came out with a unique name tag.
Of course I wouldn’t
But Unique cannot be defeated with unique skills.
Even if you can win, it is necessary for your tribe’s political influence.
‘Ashira is an existence whose rank is not set at all… Is it because of the antipathy of the existing faction?’
According to this speculation, Camilla, who leads an army of 20,000 to take her underground, must have her feelings for her Asira.
‘Will Camilla use this opportunity to catch Ashira? No, her demons prioritize imprisoning Asira in Larusa, and she will try to catch me in the meantime.’
Because it is advantageous for the demons to keep Asira alive as long as possible.
‘In other words, are you trying to disgrace Ashira by catching me? Do you think there is a rivalry? Hmm…’
As Jiha fell into thought, Yura played her again.
“Did Jiha leave me at Gadeon because she thought I would be more helpful in defending the castle?”
“…”
Because Yura is much more active in battle than Barjet.
Yegrina, unless it’s a strong enemy, I’m not in the mood to move.
In the end, there is only one unique that Brang can use properly. Underground, Yura, who had high fighting power, was attached to it.
Moreover, considering her flying ability, Yura showed great strength in her sit-in battle.
“Are you sad that you’re taking Barzette and not you?”
“I am worried about this. Camilla-nim is not an easy person, but Barjet-nim…”
“Are you not trustworthy? But we can’t keep doing that.”
The basement laughed and said.
“It’s not enough to make a decent person, so now we have to make them know how to fight.”
“…”
The world conquest that the underground is aiming for is a long-term battle.
Each of his men had to do their duty.
Barjet’s personality should be put aside, and the precious power of uniques should be changed so that he is more actively involved in war.
“Yes, I see. But please be careful. Barjet-nim seems to be in a complicated situation right now.”
“Okay.”
Yura, who was subordinate to Jiha, was able to understand the hearts of women who had feelings for him to some extent.
I knew that Barjet’s attitude in the underpass was strange.
That’s right
The fact that he voluntarily became a prisoner by arbitrarily arguing and negotiating, and that could have ruined things hadn’t been settled yet.
Barzet was also terrified of when he would be held accountable.
Underground also has thoughts about this and that, and I’ve been putting it off because I’m busy with work, but we’ll take this opportunity to deal with it together.
Defeat 20,000 enemies to secure military supplies.
Modifying the Barjet so that it can be used properly.
Open the road to the last city needed to hit the capital, Mountain Road.
