## Chapter 1305 – Demon Tribe

“Hngh… Hngh…”
“Kheu… Kheueueueueuk!”
“Why!!! Whyyyyyy!!”
“Mommyyyyyyy!!!”
“Save… meeeeeee!!!”

The procession of refugees continued. Their gloomy cries were as heavy as a dirge echoing from a grave. They shouted loudly, but it was so heavy that it sank endlessly.

It was like the Korean War.

When the war broke out, everyone fled south. Having lost their homes and families, they continued their march of death in despair, but not all survived.

“So, you guys are in that kind of situation now.”

I stood in a suitable spot and watched the procession of refugees.

I destroyed one airship.

But the other seven airships that suddenly appeared in various places… They advanced, grinding countless cities and towns to dust in places where I wasn’t. Cities were reduced to ashes by the barrage of cannon fire, and villages were erased.

In just one week since the appearance of the demon tribe fleet, the kingdom was in shambles.

This was the result.

The survivors, and those who heard the news of the invasion, packed their bags and fled randomly. They didn’t know where was safe, but they walked and walked with the single-minded determination to survive.

The army helped them, but the limitations were clear. Neither the royal family, the nobles, nor the church could properly cope with this situation. Countless people died. There was no way to stop the damn airships flying around and firing cannons in the first place.

Anyway, watching the people wailing gloomily as they fled, anger welled up inside me…!

These demon bastards!!!

“I will save you.”

There is no one to save them but me! Therefore, I will save you!!! I exhaled, chewing over such intense thoughts.

I’m so busy.

My job is to track down and destroy the airships scattered in various locations. But… since destroying one a week ago, that task has been sluggish.

ㅡWarp.

As if they noticed my existence, they were now maximizing their mobility and changing positions indiscriminately. Yes. It was warp. They razed one place to the ground and then quickly escaped using warp.

They were running away from me like that.

Of course, I couldn’t use warp, so I was always one step behind, and as a result… I was missing all the other airships.

So, the damage now is no joke.
Refugees are flooding in like a tsunami.

Their warp technology was beyond my imagination. After all, 500 years of preparation couldn’t have been complete garbage. I couldn’t even guess how much technology they had accumulated. And… I don’t even know where or how they made this fleet in the first place. Did they create a base somewhere in another dimension? Did they build ships there and prepare for invasion?

Only thoughts swell.

“It seems like many cities have already been destroyed.”

Lisztina said, grabbing my shoulder.

“…Yeah.”

She and the others had also come out here to lend a hand.

It’s not just the airships that threaten humanity.

Demon tribe landing forces are waging guerrilla warfare here and there. I’m killing them as soon as I find them, but the damage is still significant.

Rather than waiting in the capital, they wanted to kill even those guys, so they came here. They caught and killed many demon tribe landing forces on the way. The demon tribe landing forces were no match for them.

They moved to a certain point, joined and separated from the refugees, and hunted demon tribe guerrillas.

“As I always say, be careful. It’s damn dangerous if an airship starts shelling.”
“Yes. Of course, I know. Don’t worry. We’re strong too, after all.”
“Hehehe, yeah. I know that.”

Anyway, I have to leave soon. I just came to see them because they said they were going to this area last time.

“Katt.”
“Hmm? Cloudy.”
“Risha seems depressed. You should go and comfort her.”
“…Oh.”

Risha has reason to be.
I went to Risha, who was right behind me.

She looked very depressed.

“I…”
“It’s okay, Risha. Don’t say anything. It’s okay.”

Unable to bear it, I immediately hugged Risha and comforted her.

“Just focus on what you have to do now. I’ll take care of all the crazy members of your tribe. So, don’t be depressed.”
“It’s not… that I’m so depressed… I’m just troubled in many ways.”

I quietly patted Risha’s back. Still, seeing the demon tribes wreaking havoc with her own eyes, she couldn’t help but be depressed.

“Still… I believe that you will solve everything, so you don’t have to worry about me.”

As I patted her back, Risha said in a slightly stronger tone.

“It’s not a need. It’s just what I always do. I’m always worried.”

I’m always worried about my women.
And I said to them.

“I’ll leave Risha to you.”

I have to go now.

“Blackie.”
“Hmm?”

Then Winia handed me a piece of paper.

“This is our movement schedule. Keep it.”
“Okay.”
“Bullshit. What’s with the ‘okay’ again.”
“That’s my trademark.”

Anyway, if I have the movement schedule, I can find them anytime. As I was getting ready to leave, Karin said.

“Then take care. Kill a lot of demon tribes.”
“I’ll kill a damn lot of them.”

I have to kill them all.

“Katt-nim, good luck!”
“Yes. Father, don’t worry about us and come back safely.”
“Kuh… ! I will!”

Then let’s go now.

“Katt, take care?”

The last one to say goodbye was Cloudy. She touched my face and gave me a kind smile.

“Yeah. I’ll destroy one ship and come back.”

ㅡKwaang!

I kicked off the ground and flew up.

“Hmm.”

First of all, I’m also worried about the capital. Kadia is currently there. The people in the capital didn’t evacuate. They are defending their capital. Of course, they are constantly supporting troops from the outside.

But… strangely, the demon tribes aren’t attacking the capital.

I don’t know what their scheme is, but let’s not think about it now.

ㅡPaaat!

Tracking the aura of the airships and heading that way is not a good choice. The faster I go, the more power is generated. They are definitely reading that. Therefore, if I go fast, they will react quickly. They will run away immediately.

But if I go slowly, they will just do their thing and leave.

I’ll miss them again.

These bastards are weaker than me, but they have proper tactical abilities. They’re crazy sons of bitches. They are moving so nimbly that I think they gave me one of their ships just to figure out my abilities.

But.

The demon king Pelazer that they mentioned… that much hasn’t appeared yet. If they can kill me, it would be better to come forward right away, but seeing that they don’t, I can only think that there is a reason for that. Likewise, I haven’t observed the aerial fortress yet either.

“…”

Anyway, so the tactic I’m going to take this time is… yeah. Heading to a city that’s a little further away. I’ll fly to my destination at a moderate speed while suppressing my power.

The intense aura of the airships is currently felt in a different direction. I’m going in a direction that has nothing to do with that.

“I’ll suck the air.”

I’ll suck the air in that city. The airships are currently warping randomly, but they have a clear purpose to destroy cities. Then they might end up warping to target this city.

I’ll wait here and aim for that.

If I time it right, I can destroy one more right away. Since I’m missing them all anyway, there’s not much of a problem with sucking the air. Ah, but I’m also worried about Isvant… I don’t know how my friends there are doing.

Elise… she’ll be doing well. The Holy Light Cross Society will probably be evacuating well with the refugees there. I believe that.

As I was flying like that, I reached the city I was aiming for. I scouted the area a little while flying, and then landed in the center of the city.

ㅡKwaang!!

Now I’ll suppress my power and suck the air here. It’s okay if they don’t show up here. If they show up anywhere nearby, I’m going to fly at top speed right away. Ah, but I’m also worried about Isvant… I don’t know how my friends there are doing.

“Hmm?”

Once I landed and looked around, it seemed like there were people, but I didn’t see anything in my field of vision. This is just something I’m feeling with my senses. What is it? Ah. Are they all hiding somewhere? The moment I thought that.

ㅡDeureuk.

I heard a sound from over there.

The sound came from a manhole cover next to me. Soon the lid opened and people started coming out. Ah. That’s it. It seems like people were all hiding in the sewers.

“Oh!!! Ohhhhhhhhh!!!”
“Ohhhhh! He’s here!!!”
“That person is here!!!”
“Everyone come up!!! He has descended!!!”

What?

“Hoorayyyyyyyyy!!”

Excited people looked at me and cheered fiercely. Then people started popping out from all directions… Did all these people go crazy while hiding underground? I thought that for a moment.

“Ohhhhhhhhh!!! Ohhhhhhhhh!! The messenger of God has descended!!!”
“The God Verde is watching over usssss!!”
“Kyaaaaaaaaak!!! We’re alive!!”

The gathered people cried and tore at their hair in front of me, praising me.

Yes. These people were waiting for a savior in the underground.

ㅡHwaak!

I created a translucent wing and halo with the power I had made as faint as possible, and created an inner glow. I reach out to these weak people who want salvation. That’s who I am, Kim Katt.

“Yes. I am your savior.”

As I said heavily.

“Keoeoeoeok!”
“Eoeok!”
“Heoeok!”

People fainted.
It’s only natural.

I quietly looked at them and created an aura of dignity.

“W-wow, I can’t believe it!”

Then a man who looked like a nobleman shouted loudly.
Is he the leader of this city?

“What are you?”

When I asked, he bowed his head and said.

“I am Zorelia, the lord of this city…!”

A lord.

I approached the man who had pressed his forehead to the ground and asked quietly.

“Are you not evacuating?”
“Y-yes… We have not evacuated.”
“Why?”
“W-we thought it would be the same no matter where we went…! Of course, there are those who left…! We were right! Ah! Hooray! The God Verde has sent us an angel!!! Ah!!!”

He cried out in emotion.

Anyway, I calmed him down and asked a few more questions.

From what I heard, it seemed that there weren’t that many people left in the city. Most of them had already evacuated. The reason they stayed here was.

“I wanted to die in my city, even if I died.”
“Hmm, I see.”

Good mindset.

Anyway, it seems that they were hiding like dead mice in the city’s sewers. They judged that the underground would be safer than the ground, and they were constantly monitoring the sky by selecting personnel.

It’s not a very meaningful thing.

The moment the shelling starts, the ground and the underground will be over.

After hearing that story, I looked around again.

“A-ah…! Ah!”
“Oh God…!”
“Brave warrior! Angel!”
“Hngh! Hngh…! We’re alive!!!”

People who worship me and sob!!!

“Kuh…!”

It’s a terrible war tragedy!!! Because of the war that the demon tribes, who are nothing, unilaterally started, the people who were living ordinary lives are in danger of being ruined! Are these the people who have to cry like that!

Absolutely not!

“Listen!!!!!!”

ㅡHwaak!

I increased the concentration of power a little more, made my wings more brilliant, and declared.

“I am the human warrior Kim Katt! I will smash the demon tribes!!! So believe in me!!! I will kill all the demon tribes!!!”
“Ah…!”
“Brave warrior…!”

ㅡWaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

People shout with hopeful cheers at my speech. The energy of death and despair disappears, and hope blooms.

The Heavenly Demon Kim Katt will gladly become their savior.

And exactly 17 hours later.

“I-it appeareddddddddddddddddd!!!”
“Euaaaaaaaaaaaak!!!”

With a large gate.

An airship appeared in the sky above the city.
