237. Gulliver’s Travels (6)
Kuaaa—
In the enemy camp, a giant threw off his tent and revealed himself.
Thud. Boom boom. Thud. Boom!
A giant charging with his feet his his his.
The ground shook like an earthquake and a thick layer of dust rose up.
“Well, what is that…”
“Wow, it’s a monster! Those crazy b*stards unleashed a monster!”
“Hey Iik!!!”
It was felt up to this point that the soldiers were shaken when they saw the giant.
The giant was too fast for its massive size.
And finally, the giant and the head of his army collided.
Huuung─
The giant facing the Raitel Kingdom army swung his large arm once.
“Hwaaa!!”
“Click!”
“Hiyaaa! Oh, it’s a monster!!”
The cavalry flies away.
After the giant blew away only the soldiers on the horse,
He grabbed his frightened words with both hands and brought them to his mouth.
Heeheeeee!
The horse’s sorrowful scream echoes.
Crack.
Crack.
The horrifying sound of bones being smashed came from the giant’s mouth.
Took. Took.
The red blood of the horse flowing from its mouth created a grotesque scene.
*
Lilliputian troops, led by the giant, arrived one after another following him.
It was the beginning of a true battle.
While everyone around was screaming.
‘Hmm.’
I crossed my arms and tilted my head.
‘What is it?’
Originally, no matter how quickly Autumn Senior chose war with the Kingdom of Lightel.
There is no one-sided battle.
However, anyone can see that the current battle is overwhelmingly inferior.
At the center was that giant.
‘······It seems like the giant has become too strong?’
Coo!
Coo!
Every time the giant stamps his feet, his horses and soldiers fall.
No one could stop that rampaging giant.
If the giant hadn’t wasted time talking between words,
Our side would have collapsed even faster.
I looked at Lim Ga-eul hanging on the giant’s shoulder with an absurd expression.
‘No, Gaeul senior… ‘What on earth have you done?’
Judging from that movement, it certainly looks like acceleration was used…
Even so, it was a giant who had become so powerful.
‘Is it the fire dragon’s elixir?’
Of course, that may not be the case.
‘Could it be that they brought all the magic stones from the palace…?’
Until the war ends,
It was an embarrassing experience for me, who had to catch as many of the devil’s minions hiding here as possible.
If things continue like this, the battle will soon be over.
‘I have to hurry.’
I lowered my eyes and focused my senses on my surroundings.
‘Where are you…’
The movements of the suspicious men could not be clearly detected as they were obscured by the shouts of excited people.
‘Where are you?’
I quickly looked around and sharpened the knife of consciousness even further.
‘Where is it?’
It was then.
Call.
The improved detection characteristics caught some uneasy vibes.
Let’s turn our heads towards that place.
I was able to find four shady guys sauntering around in a corner of the battlefield without even thinking about fighting.
“······This is unexpected. “Didn’t you say that the giant would commit corruption because he couldn’t eat anything?”
“What a corruption! That thing isn’t just flying, it’s completely flying!”
“If this continues, let alone total annihilation, the Kingdom of Lightel will be completely defeated…”
“The plan is a failure. “We retreat, preserving as much of our comrades as possible.”
Retreat?
Who are the ones who are supposed to put a curse on the giant?
‘Where.’
Swoosh─
I wear my helmet deeply pressed down,
I hid myself in the chaotic crowd.
Dark weather
Let’s kill the sound of footsteps and presence.
Those caught up in the excitement of battle did not recognize me.
I moved behind them and quietly drew my sword.
And.
Phew!
“Ugh—!”
A sword that protrudes forward from the back.
The guy who had been pierced through the heart died instantly, letting out a short sigh.
Then, the guy right next to him pulled out his sword and looked for me.
I have already hidden myself again.
“W-Who are you!?”
“Who on earth did this to you? Couldn’t it have been detected because they were wearing blackout?”
Suddenly─
“Ouch!”
At that time, the head of a person who was alone in the distance fell off.
There are two guys left.
Among them, a calm-looking woman lowered her voice and spoke.
“······It’s an attack. “There’s someone targeting us.”
“Oh, what should I do?”
“I have to join my comrades.”
‘Oh, joining your comrades? Then, if I follow them, I will be able to fish them like sausages, right?’
I hid in the shadows and looked in the direction they were heading.
‘Okay, you guys lead the way to the remaining guys.’
* * *
“Extra large gasoook!!”
Lim Ga-eul, who was hanging on the giant’s shoulder, continued to accelerate towards the giant whenever the cooldown expired.
The more this happened, the more excited the giant became and the more crazy he became.
Haha! King! It’s great to be together like this! It reminds me of the battlefield we fought together a long time ago!”
“Wow!”
The shoulder of the giant was truly the worst ride.
Lim Ga-eul had to gag several times due to her spinning vision and trembling.
“Extra large gaaasok!!”
Nevertheless, I think that the more the giants run rampant on this battlefield, the safer our allies become.
I couldn’t stop using the skill.
“It’s fun, it’s fun! It’s a battlefield full of blood and full of blood like this! After all, he is my close friend!”
“Now, wait a minute… Ouch! Huh?”
Then, for a moment. A person caught the eye of Lim Ga-eul.
‘······Well, isn’t that Yuha’s junior?’
It wasn’t clear because he was wearing a helmet so tightly, but it definitely seemed like he saw a face similar to Jin Yu-ha.
And him wearing the clothes of an enemy soldier.
‘Why are you wearing the enemy’s clothes?’
She wondered if she had seen it wrong.
There was no way a face like that was common in this world.
If that were the case, the Utopia party members wouldn’t have made such outrageous comments as if they were co-lovers.
‘Wait for a second. Could it be that I and my junior are enemies!?’
Then things get serious.
Lim Ga-eul urgently pulled the giant’s ears and shouted.
“Now, let’s go over to the giant for a moment!”
“Hmm, is that place! This is where the enemy captain is. Now my stomach will be full. Yes, good! Let’s go catch the leader!”
At Lim Ga-eul’s command, the giant shouted in an excited voice.
“Oh, no, that’s not it! Oh, that’s it! “Let’s go first!!”
*
‘What is this…? What on earth is that monster…?’
Elena, the captain of the Raitel Kingdom army, opened her mouth as if she could not believe the sight before her.
“aaah!”
“Save me!!”
“What a monster! Run away!!”
The Raitel Kingdom army, which had started off with good momentum, was suffering miserably from the Lilliputian army, which numbered only 10,000 men.
It felt like I was having a terrible nightmare.
At first, I saw a huge lump covered with a golden cloth between them, so I thought it was an offering for peace.
Accordingly, this declaration of war was also judged to be a political action by the Lilliput Kingdom to protect its power.
That’s why Elena took the initiative to take a strong stance to prevent the Lilliput Kingdom from daring to say such mean words as surrender.
But, what does this mean?
What was contained in that cloth was not wealth, but some kind of monster.
It’s too fast for its size,
A ferocious monster that chews up horses alive.
There was no way not to be terrified by such an alien being.
Elena shouted, raising her spear toward the sky.
“Don’t run away! There is only one enemy! Do not be afraid! The God of victory is by our side…!”
However, the voice resonates so hollowly.
No one was listening to her.
If things continue like this, the only thing left is annihilation.
Thud. Thud. Thud. Boom.
The giant who was in the middle of a massacre was seen turning his steps and coming towards him.
“······Ah.”
Tuk.
The spear fell from her hand
‘There’s no way a human could defeat a monster like that…’
In fact, Elena herself had already had her heart broken.
Whisk.
Elena sat down on her floor, looking at the monster coming towards her.
‘Where on earth did things go wrong?’
It was then.
Suddenly.
“······?”
Suddenly, someone grabbed her by the collar and lifted her up.
“You! What are you doing now!?”
The person who grabbed me by the collar and lifted me up was a long-haired man.
Heo Eok─
Heo Eok─
He let out a heavy breath as if he had been concentrating on the battle until now.
Hair wet with sweat.
A face covered in blood.
He must have been on the verge of death several times on this battlefield.
Elena looked at him blankly.
Ah.
I opened my mouth.
It was a familiar face.
A trainee who defeated him overwhelmingly in Dalian a few days ago.
‘The name is Jin Yu-ha… Did you say that?’
Yes.
I lost the sparring match with this guy,
He was also accused of being the devil’s minion, and the Minister of Magic gave him a serious nose injury.
And I volunteered for the battlefield, saying I would make up for it, and now I am like this.
In other words, he was the cause that made him like this.
“Why don’t you wake up right now!?”
But the man was yelling at him.
Then Elena opened her mouth.
“······We have already been defeated.”
A cracked, unsightly voice.
“So what! Defeat is defeat. People who live should live! “If you are the leader, you should at least give an order to retreat!”
“······After, leave?”
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Boom!
The sound of the giant’s violent footsteps was getting closer and closer.
Then, Jin Yuha chewed his lips and threw Elena on the floor.
“Because I will stop that giant! You’re quick! Give the order to retreat!!”
Then, Jin Yu-he turned his back and walked towards the giant alone.
Elena’s eyes were blank, and she followed Jin Yuha’s back.
‘······Did I treat someone like that as an agent of the devil?’
Ha.
Really stupid,
Pathetic,
Doesn’t he seem like an idiot?
I, who always talked about how men should join the military, sat down in despair.
The man who denied it was resisting until the end even in this despair.
“······Yes, we have to retreat. To live a little longer. “If it’s my last mission.”
Beetle.
Elena’s body slowly rose.
“Ha, if that trainee miraculously comes back alive… “I should apologize properly.”
She picked up the spear that had fallen on her floor.
“······Everyone─── retreat!!!”
And she shouted her retreat at the top of her voice.
