Chapter 78 – The Painful Days of Mayer and Baron Kimberly (4) *Illustration of the Elf Queen Kurimu Maid Wearing Bathing Clothes*
The painful days of Myer and Baron Kimberly (4)
Cordelia was using the terrain of the forest to deal with ogres and cyclops as efficiently as possible.
Bang bang bang
The giant ogre swung the huge wooden club he was holding, but she quickly dodged between the trees, interrupted the ogre, and threw a dagger at Cyclops’ eye.
Of course, Cyclops did not easily allow her to counterattack, and Cordelia had to be satisfied with safely widening the distance.
‘I widen the distance between the two as much as possible and defeat them individually… Even though the forest is the only obstacle to their size, 2:1 is impossible…’
While Cordelia was planning her strategy, the ogre approached her and punched her. Cordelia dodged the attack by throwing away her body.
No matter how much she was a mid-level knight with a view to her superiors, she could not face the power of the ogre head-on, so she did her best to dodge or dodge attacks, and even counterattacked little by little, using the ogre’s hide as her own.
The wound increased.
Cordelia, who was blocking the ogre’s club and her fist, noticed something and turned towards it with her eyes shining and ran away.
“Kwoaaaaa!!”
Then the angry ogre chased after Cordelia, and Cyclops, who was slightly more intelligent than the ogre, walked slowly, perhaps thinking she had something to aim for.
‘Damn, he’s incredibly fast for someone so big… But as expected, he only lured the ogre all the way here!’
What Cordelia discovered was a watchtower on a tree where Monster Mountain rangers stood guard.
Then she quickly climbed the tree, cut the rope connecting her tower, and dropped the tower onto the head of the ogre, who was shaking the tree in an attempt to make her fall.
“Kwoaaaaa!!”
However, the ogre threw her fist at the watchtower that fell towards her with a huge roar and easily crushed it, and Cordelia’s attempt seemed to have failed.
“I knew you would do that!!”
But Cordelia’s target was behind her watchtower.
Cordelia, who had been hiding her body behind her falling watchtower, emerged through the shattered debris of the watchtower.
“Haaaaap!!!”
Cordelia appeared with a long spear in her hand, and with a loud roar, she stabbed with all her might into the ogre’s head.
Pooh wow!!
“Khuuuuu!!”
The ogre narrowly escaped Cordelia’s spear, but her spear was deeply embedded in the ogre’s shoulder, and the ogre’s movement stopped.
Then she pulled out her sword and cut a long gash through the ogre’s chest, then slipped and passed between the ogre’s legs.
Suddenly! Suddenly!
In an instant, large sword marks were carved into the ogre’s chest and groin, and the huge body finally fell to the floor.
“Whew, did you defeat him? I cut off both of his vital points, so he probably won’t survive. Now I just have to deal with Cyclops. If it’s one-on-one, I should still be able to deal with him with ease.”
Cordelia wiped the blood from her sword onto the ogre’s hide and retrieved her spear.
“Krrungeung …”
Soon, Cyclops, who had been following her, revealed her appearance. Then Cordelia focused all her concentration, aiming her spear and sword at the bastard.
“Kwoaaaaa!!!”
With Cyclops’ roar, Cordelia threw her body away. But contrary to her thoughts, her legs did not move, and Cyclops slowly approached her with his disgusting smile.
“Kuuuuu deliciously… Really?”
Her legs were caught in the grip of an ogre who was thought to be dead.
The ogre seemed to have died as soon as he grabbed her leg, but that split second was a golden opportunity for Cyclops.
Thump!
Cordelia resisted, but she was no match for the giant monster Cyclops with her strength as long as she was allowed to approach him completely.
Cyclops grabbed Cordelia’s arms, snatched her weapon from her hands, and lifted her legs, slamming her to the ground.
Whoa!!
“Kaaaaah!!!”
As a knight, she had a well-trained body, but when Cyclops struck her with his mighty power, her armor shattered, and she felt as if she would faint.
“Keuuuuu!!”
‘Is this how I’m going to die… Excellency Ledelmo… No, father… I’m sorry. You sacrificed your life to save me… But here I am…’
Cordelia felt her consciousness becoming hazy, but an image of someone appeared in her head.
‘No, I can’t die here! If a knight who was defeated once and lost his lord were to be defeated again, it would be a disgrace to my father’s honor and the honor of the lord who accepted me! That can’t be possible! I must live, even for His Highness Yuno!’
For some reason, the image of Yuno came to her mind, and Cordelia once again ignited her will to live.
Wow!!
Cordelia mobilized all her mana and bit off Cyclops’ hand that was holding her arm.
“Kwoaaaaa!!”
Cordelia, who had pursued the life of an exemplary knight more than anyone else, could not be seen as fighting, but she clung to Cyclops’s arm with her teeth and intensively bit his thumb, finally cutting off Cyclops’ thumb.
Quadadadadadang!!
“Gagging!!”
In response to her immense pain, Cyclops grabbed Cordelia’s body with his other hand and threw her away, but her fingers were cut off and her body regained its freedom.
However, her internal injuries from Cyclops’ attack were still there, and since she had no armor, it was clear that if she allowed the next attack, she would die instantly.
Still, Cordelia got her own weapon back thanks to Cyclops throwing her without a second thought. Therefore, she was burning her fighting spirit, looking for her last opportunity to attack.
‘With my current state, I only have one chance… I have to hit that guy’s head with one attack.’
Cyclops and Cordelia glared at each other, looking for an opportunity.
However, when the sound of an ogre dying while fighting with the defenders outside the forest was heard, Cyclops, who decided that wasting time would be at a disadvantage, moved first.
Kwaang Kwaang Kwaang
Cyclops’ fists pounded the floor, but even with her battered body, Cordelia moved as efficiently as possible and narrowly avoided the attack.
Took
At that moment, Cyclops’ foot, which was attacking randomly, caught on a tree root, and he lost his balance, and at the same time, Cordelia’s spear was shot forward.
“For the master!!”
Easy profit!!
Cutting through the air quickly, Cordelia’s spear flew towards Cyclops’ nape.
However, her attack hit Cyclops’ chest instead of his neck, and perhaps due to her lack of stamina, her spear was unable to pierce his heart.
“Kwoaaaaa!!”
Suddenly!
As Cyclops roared, sensing her victory, Cordelia fell to the floor unconscious, vomiting blood from her mouth, and at the same time, Cyclops’ throat was cut by an ax flying from behind her.
It was Ajin’s hatchet that decapitated Cyclops.
“Excellent! Girl. Courage to lure an enemy that would be difficult to defeat on one’s own in order not to sacrifice one’s subordinates. Fighting spirit that does not give up until the end. Loyalty in fighting for one’s master at the risk of one’s life! I can truly say that this is Yuno-sama’s knight.”
Revealing her appearance, Azin retrieved her ax and then headed to Her Maier with Cordelia’s armament in her hands.
Meanwhile, Mayer was distracted by the appearance of a troll who cut off the heads of the ogres that the defenders she was leading were barely able to defeat.
“Captain! What was that just now? That monstrous troll?”
“Did you just see that? We cut off the ogre’s head in one fell swoop! No matter how tired they were from fighting us… That…”
As soon as the troll disappeared, the soldiers who were trembling in fear rushed to him and complained, and Mayer shouted.
“I don’t know, dude!! I’m just going to pray that that troll doesn’t attack us… So, quickly, peel off the skin from the ogre corpse and throw it away in the deep forest! That way, the troll won’t just eat the corpse!!”〈 Br〉
Since Mayer’s words were correct, the soldiers moved according to his instructions, and from a distance, the Ranger unit that was dealing with the Basilisk was seen approaching them with his wounded soldiers.
“William! Are you okay? You’ve already killed all the basilisks! That’s amazing!”
“What are you killing? Let’s see… I guess that monster troll came and went here too? The ogre’s head was cut off, it’s spotless, isn’t it?”
“So, does that mean you went there too?”
“Yes… But let’s take care of the injured first! Shouldn’t we wash the corpses well and take them to the castle for a funeral?”
“You’re right. It’s not the time to be like this… These soldiers fought hard for their hometown… Hmm!”
As Mayer trembled and looked in front of her, William also looked back.
There, a huge troll was holding Cordelia covered in blood in his hands, and the knights who saw it drew their swords.
“You bastard!! Did you make Lord Cordelia like that!!”
“We won’t leave you alone…”
However, the knights’ fighting spirit quickly faded as soon as they saw the swelling that appeared from the ax the troll was holding.
“Ma… Ma… Master?”
“T… Troll?”
“Hmph! Is there any reason why a troll can’t become a master? If you’re not going to fight, put away your sword. You and I have no reason to fight.”
“Do you even say…?”
At Ajin’s words, the knights immediately put down their swords.
“Ah! I guess this is your first time seeing that troll speak? I heard His Highness Yuno sent it.”
“That bitch… Hmm, no, His Highness Yuno sent you?”
For a moment, Mayer almost lost her voice and cleared her throat and corrected her words, but she could not avoid William’s strange gaze.
“My name is Ajin. I am the king of the trolls in this mountain range, and I serve Miri and her companion, Yuno, as my lords. Now, my men are subduing other monsters coming this way and sending them back to their territory. There will be no more fighting, so you can rest assured and act as usual.”
“What happened to His Highness Yuno? Why didn’t he come in person…?”
“Due to circumstances, Yuno-sama will not be able to appear for a while. Perhaps an envoy from the elves will visit and inform us of the details of the situation soon. Ah! Yuno-sama said that we can demand food from you in return for our fight.”
Mayer asked Ajin’s request.
“Food? Why food…?”
“Hmm? Lord Yuno said that among humans, there is a system called mercenaries who do the fighting and get paid for it. So we will receive food in return. Anything is fine as long as it’s food, but meat would be better.”
Mayer and William were shocked to see the troll claiming to be a mercenary, but in any case, it was Azin who saved their lives and that of their men, and both the rangers and defenders suffered quite a few casualties, so while the troops were being recovered, there was a problem with the mountain range security. It was also true.
“Okay! How much food do you want?”
“I eat about 5 kg a day, and there are 20 people in our group, including me, so we need about 100 kg of food a day. I would like to be given three months’ worth. That’s what I need to survive the dry season without game. There are cubs, too. “It doesn’t matter how much the cubs eat, as long as we hunt.”
“I understand. Since it is 3 tons per month, I will pay 9 tons. Instead, we need time to prepare, so please give us about a month.”
“Okay! Then, we will receive 9 tons of food from here in a month.”
Ahjin picked up Cordelia again and took her steps back.
“No! Why are you taking Lord Cordelia?”
“If we leave her as is, she will die soon. So, I will take her to Miri in the elf village and ask her to treat her.”
Mayer could not completely trust Azin, but since they had no means of resisting the troll who slaughtered the ogres and basilisks in an instant, he had no choice but to believe that he was truly a troll who was as loyal to Yuno as he said.
“I understand. Please take good care of Lord Cordelia.”
When Ajin left, William and Mayer collected their troops and returned to Chiese Castle.
“But… Is it okay to promise 9 tons of food like that? I mean, 9 tons, that’s quite a lot, right?”
“I don’t know. Can you refuse in that situation? And our capable administrator will do something.”
“Kihya~ I guess you’re a great person on a different level from that Boras guy.”
“Well then! He’s a very capable person. He’s probably praising me right now for doing a good job.”
“Anyway, I need to rest the troops for three months while recruiting new recruits and training them again! After experiencing actual combat, I can see that I am lacking a lot!”
“Good idea! I also remembered quite a bit about what our guards need.”
William and Meyer returned home exhausted, and the soldiers, evacuated residents, and the bodies of the dead soldiers returned to their families.
Meanwhile, at the lord’s official residence…
“Keeeee!! Mayer, you crazy bastard!!! What? 9 tons of food? Is that your dog’s name? Ugh!!!”
Baron Kimberley was screaming.
It was already a week ago that the financial crisis caused by Boras’ tax evasion was resolved by squeezing in budget funds here and there with his ability, but there was once again a place to spend a large amount of money.
“Damn it! The soldiers are all testifying that it was His Highness’s orders, so I can’t believe it… Anyway, Master Troll? What is this? Are you asking me to write such a ridiculous report? The imperial palace will hit my head for calling it a false report. Can you see it?”
Baron Kimberly was a man of great integrity who did not commit tax evasion or false reporting, but he was not upright enough to do something dangerous, so he reasonably raised a report due to the large amount of damage caused by the monsters’ rampage that had accumulated over the past 10 years. I was able to ride.
Of course, it was natural that he worked without sleep for a week to resolve this situation, and lived with Yuno and Mayer’s insults for that entire week.
And the soldiers who survived this incident boasted about Ajin’s inaction that they saw to their families and friends, and Yuno went on an expedition to subdue the monsters, taking on the Master Troll as his subordinate. He was regarded as a great lord and was praised by the local people.
“Hey~ Why are my ears so itchy?”
Yuno seemed to sense that someone was swearing at her, so she put her little finger in her ear and scratched it.
Hehe, I guess the hot spring water got into your ears? Come on, please rest your head on my thigh. I’ll make you feel good with my master’s exclusive sexual treatment pussy maid, Kurimu~♥”
“Yes, please.”
While William and Mayer were training their soldiers and Baron Kimberly was working all night long, their master, Yuno, was lying on Kurimu’s thighs, dressed as a maid, and drinking the milk flowing from her breasts. While sucking and digging his ear, he was enjoying the pleasure felt from the cock being sucked by Kurimu’s daughter, Miruku, and Kurimu’s soft thighs.
