238. Giant (1)
Heo Eok─ Heo Eok─
I took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from my forehead with my forearm.
A little while ago,
When the demon minions said that they would rally their comrades and retreat, I left them untreated.
And where they were headed, about 100 people were gathered.
Normally, there would be time left even if we took it easy and dealt with each person one by one.
There was nothing I could do as the giant was drunk on Gaeul-senpai’s acceleration and started running wild.
“······Ha, I’ll search.”
In order to deal with the devil’s minions as quickly as possible, I overexerted myself and was covered in sweat.
‘But we dealt with all the ones we found.’
Now all you have to do is retreat.
Thinking like that, I looked in the direction where the leader, Elena, was.
However, actually. She, who was supposed to give the order to retreat, lowered the spear she was holding in her hand and sat down with her stupid face.
‘What on earth is that idiot doing now?’
If things continue like this, we’ll all fall apart, so you’re just leaving us like this?
This would have been difficult.
If our side was annihilated, even if I returned alive, I could have been considered a deserter.
Even if it meant hitting that woman on the head, she had to give the order to retreat.
I walked up to Elena and grabbed her by the collar.
“Why don’t you wake up right now!?”
When I scolded him like that, what he said was outrageous.
“······We have already been defeated.”
‘What kind of obvious statement are you making?’
I made an absurd expression at those words.
Then did you think we could win against that monster?
This was the face of someone who had already given up everything in frustration.
‘Ha, it’s really Chairman Lina. By making magic dolls so realistic…’
I chewed my lips.
“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!
At that time, I felt the vibration of a giant running towards me from the other side.
‘This woman cannot die.’
Yes, eventually I have to step forward.
“Because I will stop that giant! You’re quick! Give the order to retreat!!”
I said that and ran towards the giant.
“······Ji, Jin Yuha!? Junior Yuha!?”
Let me approach the giant. Senior Gaeul, hanging on the giant’s shoulder, opened his eyes the size of a flower lantern and shouted.
“Hey, giant! Stop! Well, stop it! Stop!!!!”
“uuu! How dare you! “Don’t block my way!!!”
The senior pulled the giant’s ear and shouted, but it did not seem to reach his ears, which were already caught up in the excitement of battle.
‘Sweet, giants aren’t meant to be fought…’
In the game, the goal is to avoid the giant’s attacks and catch the devil’s minions.
From the beginning, the giant was a being that could not be defeated.
“It’s really big, but it’s really big.”
I looked up at the giant from afar, then sighed and grabbed the handle of my sword.
“Well, it’s not like there’s no way.”
At that time.
“Gasoook!!!”
Autumn senior’s buff has settled into my body.
“Slow down!!!”
And a debuff was applied to the giant’s body.
An ironic situation in which the queen of a kingdom supports the enemy and suppresses the allies during the war.
Kick.
I burst out laughing.
‘The timing is good too.’
Huuung─
The giant’s slowed down fist stabs towards me.
A sight as if a huge meteor was falling in front of your eyes.
Blame it!
I immediately kicked my feet and lifted my body high.
Deep!
Then he stabbed the giant’s finger with his sword and used it as a lever to stand on top of the giant’s fist.
Ride, ride, ride!
I just ran on the giant’s arm.
As if he was bothered by me running over his body his his, the palm of the giant’s left hand swooped down on his head his his, as if catching an insect.
Receiving the acceleration of Lim Ga-eul, I was able to avoid being crushed to death by the palm of his hand by a narrow margin.
After running so desperately.
Finally, I succeeded in standing on the shoulders of giants.
‘With this method, I might be able to faint for a while.’
I’ve already spent a lot of mana catching the devil’s minions,
I thought it would be possible at least once if I scraped together what was left.
I saw Lim Ga-eul looking at me with a worried expression on the other shoulder.
I smiled at her and stabbed her sword into the giant’s ear.
Pugh—!
“Chooo!!!”
As the sword was inserted into his ear hole, the giant let out a scream.
Woowoowooung─
Without wasting any time, I immediately raised my mana.
Grumbling!
Blue burning mana bloomed like a natural flower over her body.
I forcibly gathered the mana that was about to be released uncontrollably and guided it to the tip of her sword.
“Keueueuuu!”
It felt like her hair was burning white from the overheated mana circuit,
The more I did this, the more passionately I poured mana.
Finally.
Duuu!
An explosion of mana occurred from the tip of her sword.
Cheer up!
It’s not the Moonlight sword I originally used, but an old, shabby iron sword.
The sword broke because it could not handle the explosion of magical power.
Still, was the effect of directly attacking the cochlea clear?
“······Wow.”
The giant opened his mouth.
It stopped in that state.
“Haa…”
I sat down on the shoulders of giants with a sense of accomplishment that I had done it.
Then, senior Gaeul jumped over the giant’s head and ran towards me.
“Ji, Jin Yuha!!”
I glanced back.
Fortunately, Elena came to her senses and gave the order to retreat.
The Rytel Kingdom army was seen running away.
‘I also have to follow right away.’
There may be time to talk for a moment.
“Autumn senior.”
I looked at Lim Ga-eul and smiled.
“Yu, Yuha junior. Me, I didn’t know. “I never thought we would meet enemies…”
She spoke in a trembling voice.
He looks like he is afraid that he may have made a mistake.
I shook my head resolutely.
“No. “You did a great job.”
“······Huh?”
“It’s right for us to lose here.” And thanks to Gaeul senior bringing the giant right away, things went really well.”
“······I, I, now, did I do well? “Really?”
“Yes, absolutely.”
Even though she said that, Lim Ga-eul still had a calm expression on her face.
I slowly reached out my hand and tried to pat my senior on the head, but then stopped.
‘Hmm, isn’t it a bit much to pat a senior on the head?’
Kkook.
Instead, I just gave him a light hug.
Then Lim Ga-eul’s eyes widened as she hugged me.
“Thank you.”
“Yu, Yuha junior…?”
I left a word like that.
He kicked the giant’s head and retreated together among the fleeing allies.
* * *
“Yuha junior…”
Lim Ga-eul looked blankly at his back
“My junior told me… I said thank you…”
It was to the point where he thought it was really a dream that Jin Yu-ha hugged him first.
A sight that caught the eye of Lim Ga-eul, who had been making a dumb expression for a while.
Lilliputian soldiers were frantically chasing the retreating enemies.
‘Yes, the war is over now.’
Although it was unfortunate that my junior and I met as enemies.
Therefore, there was one thing left for her to do.
As I took hold of his heart, my clenched hands became stronger.
She got up from her seat.
Whoa!
Take a deep breath.
“That’s it!!!!”
She shouted loudly to the battlefield.
Then.
Stop.
The magic of slowing that spread along with the voice cooled the heat of the battlefield for an instant, like pouring cold water.
The Lilliput soldiers chasing after the Raitel Kingdom army stand tall.
She stopped on the spot.
Everyone turned their heads towards the direction where the sound came from.
And there was the Queen of Lilliput.
Their monarch stands proudly on the shoulders of giants.
Czarrrr.
A shiver running down your spine.
“The battle is now over.”
She spoke in a dignified voice.
“Everyone, put your swords away. This war… “It is a victory for us Lilliputians!”
So Gaeul Lim raises her fist and declares victory.
Tuk.
Tutuk.
Fighting.
Ting.
Tuk.
One by one, the weapons she was holding in her hands and she fell to the floor.
And one soldier raised both hands up and shouted.
“Ma, long live…”
And that voice spread like a fire in the field to everyone on the battlefield.
“Hurray! Long live your Majesty the Queen!”
“Hurray! Long live your Majesty the Queen!”
“Hurray! Long live your Majesty the Queen!”
“Hurray! Long live your Majesty the Queen!”
Voices praising Im Ga-eul rang loudly throughout the battlefield.
At that time, the giant, who had been in a state of fainting for a while, touched his forehead and opened his eyes.
“Huh… What just happened? Friend…? Clearly, a dark-haired warrior…”
Then the giant opened her eyes wide as if she had realized.
“Is that so…!? Did I lose to him!?”
Puck!
Lim Ga-eul kicked the giant’s chin on his shoulder
“No!!!”
“······What?”
“He is not the enemy!!”
“What? Ha, but it’s definitely the enemy’s clothes… “
“He, he, he’s a spy! You’re a spy for our kingdom! How many times have I told you not to fight! Why are you fighting with him and making such a fuss!”
Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!
Lim Ga-eul huffed and irritated the giant.
The giant scratched her head in embarrassment at her mistreatment of her.
“I’m sorry. Friends. “When I get immersed in battle, I can’t see my surroundings…”
Even that appearance was seen as awe-inspiring to the soldiers of the Lilliput Kingdom.
“······Our queen rules over that great giant perfectly.”
A little while ago, they were the ones who felt right next to the giant’s power.
Lim Ga-eul, who expressed her anger by kicking from the shoulder of such a giant, could not help but be seen as a greater being than that.
“Hurray! Long live your Majesty the Queen!”
Once again, the sound of praise for Lim Ga-eul rang louder than before.
“Hurray! Long live your Majesty the Queen!”
“Hurray! Long live your Majesty the Queen!”
“Hurray! Long live your Majesty the Queen!”
