Chapter 266 – 266. The Otherworld Summoner’s First Special Move (8)
– One –
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
Soldiers throw axes in anger.
Soldiers without an ax pick up rocks and smash them, and those without an ax wield swords.
Kujik, kujik, kujik, blah blah!
“Move over!”
“Back off! Back off!”
Another tree fell.
Its back was far from being neatly broken.
Due to the rough cutting with crude equipment, the word hacking was appropriate.
Thud!
Wow!
A tree falls.
Soldiers roar.
Woowook Huh.
But once the wind blew and the dust settled,
Wow…
The cheers die down.
“Yeom disease! How many trees have you grown?”
“Aren’t you still raising a new one?”
“Is this meaningful…?”
The soldiers gossip.
Fuck!
Right!
“100 million…!”
“Cuck!”
The sergeant slashes the soldiers in the back of the head.
The soldiers grabbed the scruff of the neck and looked back with tears in their eyes.
“Kill at least one more while complaining!”
“Oh, no, but…”
“You idiot!”
When the sergeant shouts, all the eyes of the nearby soldiers are focused on him.
The sergeant deliberately raises his voice.
“Right now wizards and shamans are observing the inside! However, the circumstances of the enemy growing more trees have not been detected!”
Buzzing, buzzing.
… Really…
However…
Buzz buzz.
The soldiers’ whispers grow louder.
“If they had used sorcery on such a large scale, the enemy shaman would have been on the verge of death by now or, at worst, exhausted and completely deserted the front line! Even if an individual uses it, he can’t be fine! If there is anyone who can do that, it’s only the Goddess!”
“Oh, oh oh…!”
“So now is our chance! We must enter and decapitate the shaman now, in order to completely cut off the possibility of him recovering and returning again! For our safety, for the safety of our comrades, and for the Empire for!”
“Oohhhhh!”
The atmosphere has changed.
Something similar was happening everywhere in the wooden barrier that Urmama had created.
“Imperial forces always!”
The sergeant leads the way and looks around.
Everyone glared at his mouth with an itchy expression.
“Win!”
“I win aaaaa!”
Aaaaa!
The soldiers frantically ran into the trees.
The sergeant let out a sigh of relief and headed elsewhere.

“What are the shamans doing now?”
“I’m putting out a fire that spread in the fields when mana was flowing back.”
“Still?”
“Yes. Sorry to inform you, but it is estimated that the shrub plants in full bloom in the field contain inflammable substances. It did not spread too badly because there was not a large amount per individual, but it was difficult to extinguish the flames in the area where the fire had already spread. He says he’s suffering.”
“…It’s difficult…”
Vice Admiral Draft frowned.
The vast majority of wizards have died or are in need of long-term training.
The shaman, who is supposed to control the flames and burn the wooden barriers, is all caught up in controlling the fires spreading in the fields.
You cannot start a new fire on a wooden wall or transfer a fire that has already started to the wall.
Although there are many wizards and shamans specializing in the fire attribute, their movements are thoroughly blocked.
“What about siege weapons?”
“It will take another half a day before the second corps, including the engineering corps, arrives.”
“… I shouldn’t give the enemies time to recover…”
“Haona, General. Currently, there are no available troops. In order to deploy even siege weapons, at least half a day must pass. Wizards and shamans are believed to be able to deploy only after a longer period of time.”
“… You should also think about the break time.”
“Yes. Not to mention the state of the magicians, even the shamans are complaining of exhaustion. The Cathedral Knights and the Inquisitors generously use healing spells, but they can’t even restore mana.”
“Hmm…”
Swoop, Swoop.
Lieutenant General Draft strokes his chin with a displeased expression.
But no matter how much I try, I can’t come up with a suitable means for attacking the wooden barrier.
It was then.
“I… General…”
The youngest-looking commander opens his mouth.
He had the lowest rank and had the shortest history of service in the Imperial Army, so he was a low-level commander who always seemed to be there or not, just keeping his post.
“If you have a good opinion, speak up.”
However, Vice Admiral Draft did not turn away from him.
Anyone who rises to the position of commander of the Imperial Army is guaranteed to have a certain level of competence.
That’s why there is no reason to lose money even if you listen to the remarks.
“It’s a bit absurd, but… Do I have to destroy the wooden barrier anyway?”
“Hmm? Tell me more.”
“Even if it’s hard to destroy, wouldn’t it be unreasonable for the soldiers to climb over the tree…
The youngest commander shook his head and continued his words in a hushed voice.
Not only was everyone focused on him, but they were staring at him with their eyes wide open.
“Why, why, yes,”
“Why.”
“That, that’s-“
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier!”
The draft lieutenant general screamed.
“Hee-i-ik…!”
The youngest commander seemed quite timid.
“That, that, that,”
“If you deliberately did not express your opinion, I will refer you to a military tribunal as soon as the operation is finished!”
“Tongue, a real problem, lice, is,”
“What’s wrong?!”
“Wealth, the ropes that the unit has, not enough ropes, nothing, blunt bayonets are rulers, they don’t stick well,”
“Hmm…”
Vice Admiral Draft calms down.
It seemed that he had already completed the experiment to verify the realization as well as the current situation before proposing the operation.
The evaluation of the youngest commander was significantly upgraded.
“If you cross the barrier with your current rope, how many routes do you think you can open at the same time?”
“I think at most two are possible,”
“Right.”
Lieutenant General Draft cuts him off.
But it was not silenced because it was not worth listening to.
It was because his heart was so urgent and he was excited about finding a breakthrough.
“I apologize to you, gentlemen. I was intimidated by the large-scale sorcery used by the enemy shaman, obsessed with facing large armies, and my vision was too narrow. I wasted my time in a pointless war of attrition. .”
Swoop.
Chuck.
Lieutenant General Draft bows his head to the other commanders.
“Since we all made the same judgment, isn’t it something the general should apologize for?”
“No. Even if you do, I should have cooled my head and made a cool decision.”
“Haona,”
“However.”
Thud.
He stamps his feet
The heavy echo that started from his toes catches everyone’s attention.
“I won’t do that anymore. This is it, Won. Shouldn’t you wake up at least because you’re embarrassed to see the youngest?”
Haha…”
The youngest commander scratches the back of his head and cannot hide his embarrassment.
“You’re right. The enemy is in the minority, and the enemy shaman is currently exhausted or presumed dead. Even including the exhausted shaman, there should be three or four at most, but with our elite forces, there’s nothing we can’t subdue.”
“Yes! The shaman is just scary, the others aren’t that great! Only the shaman responded to us, but there’s no evidence that the others did anything, so I guess they’re little more than a shaman’s attendants or bodyguards! “
“My judgment is the same. So, let’s immediately launch an operation to send a small number of elite troops over the wall. Even if only two routes are cleared, if we continue to send troops along the routes we have cleared, hundreds of elite soldiers, no matter how small, will It will be more than enough to put in.”
“Yes, General!”
All the commanders answered with one voice.
They started burning with a desire for revenge.

“It’s a big deal…!”
Margarita fidgets and bites his lip.
He bites her thumb and crosses her arms.
She hangs around alone.
“It’s dangerous… It’s dangerous…”
She was watching the meeting that took place in the barracks of the imperial army commander without missing a moment.
One mistake is not enough, so it overflows.
In order not to repeat her mistake, she continued to use the breeze to sense long distances and squeezed her brain.
As she constantly overheard the strategy meeting of the Imperial Army Command, she caught the fact that they came up with an appropriate countermeasure.
“What should I do… Monohondo… Octopoda oppa…”
She frowned and contemplated the countermeasure.
Tears start to form in her eyes.
The anxiety she felt was amplified even more than usual because there were no always reliable bookkeepers by her side.
Woo woo woo woo.
The unique light emitted when using a healing spell nearby bursts out.
Margarita’s eyes inadvertently return there.
“No, no…”
Ada didn’t seem to be of much help.
The one she cared for, she turned her attention to Mono Horn.
Ada left her slammer recuperating in her mansion and followed Margarita’s guidance to the place where Mono Horn had fallen.
The place where Monohorn fell was not too far from the mansion, so naturally, Margarita and Ada gathered around Monohorn.
‘Monohon…’
He was in a state of complete exhaustion and passed out while annihilating his enemies while riding on the wooden giant he had created.
The vibrations generated when the tree giants maneuvered gave him severe motion sickness, and the mental load generated by maneuvering dozens of tree giants at the same time gave him severe headaches.
Due to the annihilation operation that took place over several hours, Monohorn is not in a situation to move right away.
It would be nice if he came to his senses, but it’s hard to expect even that right now.
“Oh, consult with brother Octopoda,”
“Margarita? What’s going on?”
Ada finds her crying and trembling with anxiety.
Ada approaches Margarita.
“That, that’s…”
Margarita was speechless.
There are so many things I want to say, but I can’t organize them.
Emotions are overheated due to anxiety and excitement.
Sararak.
Pat, pat.
Ada hugs her and comforts her.
Let’s caress her without her words, and she gradually calms down.
“It’s okay. It’s okay. We can make it. It’s okay.”
Ada murmurs quietly.
Margarita’s heart regains her composure.
Whoa…
She lets out her sigh.
Swoop, Swoop.
Wipe the tears with your sleeve.
Organize her thoughts in her head.
“So, Margarita. What’s going on? I won’t be of much help, but talking to me might clear Margarita’s mind. So, can you tell me?”
“Yes, sister. So,”
Margarita informs Ada of the current situation.
Ada’s expression becomes serious.
The three of them are in a dangerous situation, and as time goes by, the situation will only get worse.
“Josena Bennison, can’t Estrus go there?”
“All three of them are chasing survivors from the reconnaissance unit, so the distance from where Maman and the other two are is quite far away. Even if we go on time, there are 40,000 Imperial troops who have flocked there, so at most we can buy time. I think it is. Even if Honey goes and tries to rescue the three people, if you move with others, the speed of moving in the air is very slow. If a mage or shaman intercepts from a distance, it can be very dangerous…”
“Ah…”
The eyes of the two turn to Monohorn.
But he was gasping for breath, his complexion pale.
His expression was distorted, as if he was still upset.
“This time again…”
“I don’t think there’s any answer other than monohon…”
The two darken their complexions.
It was then.
“Ah…”
As if Margarita is looking somewhere other than here, her focus shifts to a blur.
“It’s not like that, honey.”
She seemed to be having a conversation with Jose.
Ada turns her steps and approaches Mono Horn.
Woo woo woo woo woo!
Then, as best she can, imbue Monohorn with her divine power.
Even if it didn’t mean much, it was an act that stemmed from the earnest desire for Monohorn to open its eyes as soon as possible.
“Therefore…”
Margarita could whisper to others without opening her mouth.
Because it was a method of simply creating and transmitting air vibrations, she was able to communicate her words to multiple people at the same time.
“Now,”
But she was so embarrassed that she told José in the most familiar and comfortable way.
It was a way of uttering a voice and carrying that trembling in the breeze.
“Octopoda, Demosh, and Maman are dangerous.”
Her voice echoes through the clearing.
The magic is dangerous.
The devil is dangerous.
Madness risk.
Danger.
Flash
Monohorn opens his eyes.
“Now, what did you say, sister?”
He opens his mouth with a pale face.
She rolls her eyeballs and glares at Margarita.
Oh so so so so.
Goosebumps run down Margarita’s arms.
Ada froze completely.
The two were completely overwhelmed by Monohorn’s eyes that radiated a cold light like glass beads.
“Now, what, did you say, I, ask.”
“That, that, Ma, Ma, Mamani, Octopoda oppa,”
Margarita trembled and spat out distorted sentences.
Monohorn understood the situation with just that.
“What’s the direction?”
“Me, me, that way,”
“It’s a street.”
“That, that’s-“
“No, that’s fine. It will come out as we go along.”
Swoop.
Tup.
Mono Horn raises her body.
Stumble.
Widely.
Stumble.
But I don’t smoke like a motherfucker.
It’s not even worth the time.
“Sister.”
“Ugh, ugh.”
“I have a favor.”
“What, what request…?”
“Please warn me.”
“What, what, warning…?”
Damn
Rumble.
Monohorn bites his lip.
The flesh is ripped out.
Gulp.
Swallow blood along with it.
The dizzying pain seemed to clear her mind.
“If the three of you get even a scratch, the size of a speck of dust,”
Fast.
Monohorn goes for it.
“I’ll make you regret, make, and give you something alive.”
“Uh, uh…”
Margarita mumbles.
However, she will do Monohorn’s favor.
Monohorn did not doubt it.
Woo woo woo.
He lets out a long sigh
I turn my head and look at the frozen Ada.
“Sister Ada.”
“Yes?”
Jjoong.
Kiss her on the lips
“Thank you. Thanks to you, I came to my senses in time.”
“Thank you,”
“I’ll return the rest and repay you.”
“Ah…”
Mono Horn turns her head.
Margarita looks at him.
“Thank you Margarita-sister too. Leave it to me now.”
“Ah, I understand…!”
Her expression brightens slightly.
“Then I’ll go.”
Shureuk, shureuk!
Whirly Rick!
As usual, he didn’t make the basket.
A tree trunk wraps around Monohorn’s body.
He bites his teeth
Aaaaa!
Woo woo woo woo!
“Aww!”
“Kyaaaaagh!”
Creating a wild aftermath, his body disappears.
Flutter, flutter.
The two of them held onto the hem of the overturned skirt with both hands, looking at the Monohorn rising obliquely forward.
He was growing plant stems more desperately than usual.
“Please don’t be late…”
Disaster erupted towards the imperial army.
