Chapter 350 – Episode 350 – Wow. Surrender? (Hodaldal)
“Hmm.”
I checked the light armor I was wearing. When I was a soldier, I wore crude leather armor, but this time I was quite successful. It is decorated with a slightly gray border, so it seems to match my energy of death.
Ridge.
Ridge.
Ridge.
Ridge.
The drum sounds consistently. A sound that keeps you on your toes for even a moment resonates throughout Oost Castle. I looked down from above the middle of the castle wall. It wasn’t a wide plain, but black dots were visible in the distance.
“It really feels like we’re at war.”
Ray, who was standing next to me, gulped. Although I experienced war in the Elven Kingdom last time, it was a small-scale battle that could not be called a war compared to this war. Right now we have to fight against the demon king army that is gathered in front of this castle like a swarm of ants. This is war.
“Tremble?”
“Little. Daron, it looks like you’re not nervous?”
“Well, I’m not nervous about war itself.”
The times when fighting was scary are over. Because it is a battlefield where cowards cannot survive. Even if you run away out of fear, you will eventually be beheaded for deserting the military, or even if you barely survive a few times, you will eventually die. In fact, there may be such soldiers in this war as well. But that was only when the war was lost. Honestly, any soldier who has seen me prepare for this war even just a little bit would think that this war is really worth fighting.
“But what I’m worried about is that there will be a case where we won’t be able to completely defeat the Demon King in this war. “That’s the only one.”
“Is that possible? “After all, what you’re talking about has rarely failed.”
Even if victory is achieved by completely defeating the Demon Lord, the moment one more war is added in the process, numerous casualties will occur. I didn’t even want to tolerate that. If there is a regression, it must be completely resolved. This was a small sense of mission that I had for someone who was just starting out.
“You poured everything into this war for that.”
“That’s right.”
Ray nodded his head and looked again at the soldiers of the Demon King’s army seen in the distance. Large weapons for siege warfare, large demonic beasts with gags in their mouths. And even demons that look like humans on the outside but have dark magical powers. These are the troops gathered to capture this castle.
“Anyway, I can’t see the Demon Lord.”
After becoming a warrior, my sensitivity to magic improved, but it was difficult to figure out where the demon king was inside. In the first place, the Demon King will not be selected already. What I see now is only a part of the troops, and it seemed like they were in the rear, which I couldn’t see yet.
“Hero.”
Princess Eddy came up to where we were, checking the defense posture until the end.
“I’m here?”
“Looking at it again, it’s a huge army.”
“I know that?”
“Yes?”
“I guess the Demon Lord feels the same way, right?”
Of course, this is our first time seeing so many demons gathered together… That would be the same for demons as well. They aren’t fools either, so they must have realized that this Ust Castle is more solidly prepared than expected.
“That’s why we don’t start fighting right away. “It arrived yesterday and I’m still waiting to see how it goes.”
It may be a little frustrating, but there is absolutely no reason for us to open the gate and leave. Since I had to close the door and concentrate on defense, I could only look back and watch for now. Now what are you going to do, devil? Even if you are surprised and prepare something stronger, we have prepared something more than that.
I glanced at the princess named Eddie. I can see that she has been fidgeting and doesn’t know what to do since earlier.
“Tremble?”
“Well, that makes me nervous.”
“Stay still.”
“Huh?”
I grab a large handful of Princess Eddy’s buttocks with my hands. It was because I was trembling and got caught in the snow.
“What are you doing now?!”
“What is it? I was so nervous, so I told him to stay still. “Because it’s crazy.”
“Are you working on me now? “I know everything.”
No, I didn’t have that intention this time. I do this to my girls so often that this kind of behavior comes out very easily.
“I’m not that kind of easy-going girl!”
Still, they don’t say they cut off their hands.
“You’re not an easy woman?”
“Yes.”
“Do not say that. “Because you might want to break it again for no reason.”
“Eww… Hehe?”
For your information, she has not removed her hand from Princess Eddie Lan’s buttocks yet. When I squeeze it tightly, it trembles in a different way. Princess Ediran struggled hard, but she could not escape on her own. Only after I let go of her hand was I free. Then he hit my arm with a punch like a cotton fist.
“Oh. My arm… “I think it’s a little broken.”
“Are you okay?”
The warrior’s arm was broken because of the princess? In the first place, it was a voice that had nothing to do with Princess Eddy’s power, but she was quite embarrassed.
“Is it broken?”
“Ah…”
Only then did the princess realize that she had been caught up in her ridiculous pun, and her face turned red.
“Is this a time like this? It wouldn’t be enough to be serious in everything… !”
“But it seems like the tension has eased.”
“Ah.”
Her hips, which had been twitching nervously, became still. As she got angry at me, Princess Eddie Lan lost the tension she had felt earlier and looked very relaxed.
“We prepared thoroughly. So believe it.”
“I guess so.”
I nodded politely and turned my head back towards those demon lords.
“… But by the way, don’t try to ignore what I teased earlier.”
“If you win the war, your wish will be granted. “Let’s say some of them were written in advance.”
“Where is that? And part of it?”
“For a moment.”
I also put aside Princess Eddy, who was arguing intently next to me, and focused my magic on my eyes. Among the demon king’s army, several demons come forward on horseback. They were not scouts who sometimes came forward one at a time and wandered around before returning.
“Daron.”
Ray must have noticed that too and called me. Since there were less than ten demons, it didn’t seem like the war was starting in earnest, but that didn’t mean it had anything to do with us. Four men and two women. They were running towards us very excitedly. It won’t be a suicide commando. They approached the front of the castle without fear. Only then did I see the soldiers, who had not expected to come that close, urgently taking up their positions. Still, I didn’t come for the purpose of fighting.
“Who is the owner of Ust Castle?”
Who ruled this place? First of all, there is a noble man who is nominally named Count Zeke.
[Maybe it would be good?]
Count Zeke asked me for advice at the long-distance communication magic sphere.
[Please respond first.]
[Yes.]
And soon, Count Zeke shouts from the other side of the castle wall.
“I, Count Zeek, am the guardian of this castle! Why are you evil people looking for me?!”
“You mean you are Count Zeke? “I heard there was a princess or a warrior here?”
“They are not here! Moreover, the lord of this castle was originally Count Nazik. “What brought you here?”
We’re not here. To be honest, it seems like a lie that I won’t fall for, but what’s the use of that when you’re the enemy anyway? Even if you’re shameless, as long as you win, you’re in luck.
“Okay? “You mean there isn’t one?”
Are you really fooling me?
“Then I have come to advise you to surrender!”
“Surrender?”
“Yes! Count Zeke. At first glance, it looks like they’re using it for some reason, but do they really think they can stop our demon lord’s army? If you surrender, I will show mercy especially to the first battlefield and will not kill anyone!”
“Joy! Does that make sense?! “You don’t know what to do with the people in our castle, and you don’t know who will win before you fight in the first place, right?”
Count Zeke. He is stronger than I thought. If someone with a small heart or other thoughts had been the owner of this castle, I would have educated them somehow. But it would be nice for me if you treated me well like that from the beginning.
“Do you really want to drink strong liquor?! Count Zeke, your decision will annihilate all the humans in this castle! The woman will be violated, and all the men will be killed! In particular, it would be a good idea to cut off all the men’s dicks and send them to the palace. Haha!”
That and that.
You only choose to say things you shouldn’t say. I touched the magic sphere and spoke to Count Zeke.
“After some acting, tell them to come inside.”
[Yes?]
“Just do that. And before you do that, don’t confuse the soldiers by telling them it’s all a strategy.”
[Yes.]
As soon as the magic sphere is cut, the sound of Count Zeke screaming is heard.
“Wait a minute, I’ll think about it!”
Another moment later, Count Zeke shouts loudly again.
“Just listen to the story first!”
Sigh.
The tightly closed castle gate opens… I didn’t lose. Trust someone and open the gate. Instead, I decided to open a small door the size of a dog hole.
“Come in!”
“Wait for a sec. “Isn’t this door too small?!”
One female demon shouted in an angry voice. From the looks of it, it doesn’t seem to be a common noun, but since you have to crawl through a small hole, it doesn’t look right.
But what can I do?
They soon began to carefully enter the hole. I saw that they were coming in this way and excitedly went down to greet them. What did one of those bastards say earlier? Except for cutting off the penis, because it feels like it hurts just thinking about it.
“Men kill and women commit?”
I can’t stand this.
Because they are demons, they seem to have entered the dragon’s den without even imagining that humans would be like that, but now they will painfully show that humans are just as terrible as demons. Besides, isn’t it a rule not to send messengers back gracefully during war?
