The composure in the face of the female demon with the feeling of Ekatrina 0.5, with a warlike smile and bull horns that matched it well, disappeared as soon as she saw the ax blade flying toward her.
But don’t panic. That alone wasn’t a chore. It wouldn’t be as easy as it sounds to immediately take a defensive stance despite the fact that an ally’s arm burst right in the ear. Judging from his appearance, it was clear that he had an extraordinary mentality, and there was a high probability that he was a competent person.
That’s why I swung the ax with the intention of severing a part of the female demon’s body, even if it meant falling down like this. The thick mace and sword crossed, but I thought I could split it enough.
It was a mistake.
– Kaang!
“Fucking magic gold!”
I liked it when it was my sword, but when it became the enemy’s weapon, I had to experience the rare feeling that my body stopped in mid-air without even a moment to feel that it was really fucking awful.
Like hitting a wall. The female warrior of the Demon tribe carried my whole body and stuck my blow, and with only the strength of her upper body, she was able to withstand it while riding on the flying dragon!
“Aagh!”
In a situation where even the flying dragon staggers and screams in pain, the female warrior’s shoulder muscles swell with a spirit close to a scream. At the same time, I felt a strange recoil like the elasticity of a spring from the fingertips holding the axe. Fortunately, my head worked without stopping, so I quickly understood what was going on.
He intends to push me away like this this year.
“crazy!”
This time, my instinctive judgment was faster than the goose bumps running through my body. I moved the
needle on the waist dance to the case and forcibly twisted my body to get into position, climbed on top of the dragon, and put strength on my thighs to fix my body. Drawing this X, it was swung like an explosion. Even though I was giving a lot of strength to not be pushed back, Kwaang! The tremendous shock that followed with the sound pushed both arms back and almost flew the ax out of his grip.
The blow opened the upper body, but it was the same for the other person. At least, it was fortunate that neither of them had enough energy to keep the follow-up in mind, so it was fortunate that it did not happen.
In such an imminent situation, the muzzle moved at will, even though the shock that came down to the shoulders made the heart go cold.
“Isn’t this a pure monster?!”
Although all that came out was disgust mixed with admiration and astonishment, I couldn’t stand it.
Excluding the armor and equipment, my weight alone is at least 90, and the ax, sword, armor, and other equipment are combined to weigh at least 100 kg. Not only did it carry that much weight as it fell from the sky, but it wasn’t enough to withstand the blow it wielded using its magical powers, so it’s strange if you don’t get jealous of an enemy who even thinks of pushing you away with only your strength. is that a person?
The female warrior’s face rose in anger at the cry that she uttered without any filtering so that anyone who heard it could tell it was sincere.
“What are you talking about?! It’s not even small!!”
And at the same time, the sword of the female warrior who fell down was swung.
At the moment, I was about to refute whether that was important in this situation, but I couldn’t afford it. A slashing attack from the bottom to the top is relatively weak, but after experiencing the previous blow, I was convinced that if I hit it, it would cut through the bones rather than cut flesh. That alone is daunting, but Mace is preparing to wield it as well.
It’s too late once the attack starts, so you should swing it first. The moment he made that decision, he was already swinging the axe.
– Jjaeong!
Fortunately, the blow she swung to sever the top of her head with all her might was faster than the female warrior’s attack, but not as fast as her switching from offensive to defensive.
Fortunately, her reaction and defense were not perfect because she changed the workshop in a hurry. Disappointment appeared on the face of the female warrior who must have felt the same numbness I felt.
“Human… why!”
Well, I haven’t heard the answer yet, so I can’t answer it because I don’t know. Even if I knew, I wouldn’t have answered.
Her tensed nerves took advantage of the momentary gap to keep her eyes on the surroundings and saw two drakes flying behind her.
Unlike the flying dragon, which suddenly got on me and was unable to navigate properly, two demons were riding in pairs on top of the flying dragon, which was very honest and flew straight. Because they closed the distance so quickly that they wondered if they had gotten so close before they knew it, even their tense expressions were visible.
It is necessary to reduce the number of heads as it is unknown what kind of attack method they have.
“One at a time.”
That’s why, relying on the senses I’ve grown accustomed to, I threw the ax aiming at the forehead of a flying dragon flying straight into the air.
◈
The ax disappeared from his hand.
This time, Marsh didn’t lose track of the axe, as he was very nervous about the next attack. In fact, even if I missed it, I would have noticed it naturally. The ax passing over my left shoulder, creating tremendous wind pressure, had too much presence to suddenly disappear.
Unlike the first engagement, this time I had no choice but to look back. She urgently turned her head to break her neck, and what came into her eyes was the image of a flying dragon that was about to fall with a huge two-handed ax stuck between its eyebrows and stopped flapping its wings like a marionette with its threads cut off, and his subordinates in despair about the future to come.
“Damn it!”
can’t be saved
Only Yawell could use flying magic. And Yawel has already fallen first, and even the body is nowhere to be found.
Just turning his head to see the end of his men was a life-or-death crisis, so Marsh quickly adjusted his posture. Sure enough, in that moment, the monster in front of me had already pulled out a sword from its waist and was attempting an attack.
The action was filthy swift. If it weren’t for the enemy, I would have clapped.
– Kaang!
He hurriedly blocked the sword that was aiming for his own throat. The heaviness of the attack was incomparable to that of an axe, but the problem was that, unlike an axe that ended in a one-time attack, the attack continued.
It’s terrifyingly fast and accurate. There was a reason why he threw an ax that big like a mere throwing weapon.
He was a skilled warrior, enough to be in a hurry to defend without even being able to switch to an offensive, without being surprised by the movements that would only be experienced on the battlefield.
Rather, it raises questions. The projectile that blew off Yawell’s arm in an unexpected surprise attack, the ax, and the swordsmanship were all threatening, but in the end it was physical power. That alone can’t kill the old man who couldn’t die in the curse.
This strange man still had something hidden.
But Marsh wasn’t sure what it was in this fight. So he ordered his subordinates.
“Run away!!”
“Big, captain?!”
Rather, even though the enemy could be reduced, Eldmia’s eyes became sharper and shed her gaze at the subordinates beyond Marsh’s shoulder. Despite the fact that the situation seemed so damning, Marsh could be sure he was right.
I intend to kill all these bastards, and it is actually possible.
I couldn’t leave it like that. Marsh strengthened his body by exploding his mana, and at the same time, he forced himself into Eldmia’s attack and attacked. In the process, I got a big wound on my shoulder, but it didn’t matter.
He wasn’t a guy who could win without getting hurt anyway, and if he didn’t do this, he would die.
“Operation failed! Impossible to capture! Impossible to kill! Run without looking back! Return as soon as you reach the border area! Inform your troops! The target’s skill is at least a handful of soldiers! Can’t measure the upper limit! Use magical power!”
“Where!”
The projectile that shattered Yawell’s arm came out of Eldmia’s waist, but this time I could see it clearly. It’s really fucking fucked up that he didn’t expect that number to be ten, but this time, thankful that he didn’t get lost, Marsh stretched out his right arm and blocked the projectile’s path.
Screams erupted in terrible agony, but Marsh was able to block all the projectiles with his arms.
“This crazy…”
Did he not expect to be blocked or did he not know how to do it this far? Whatever it was, Eldmia’s embarrassment was a good sign for her. Even though his right arm was sore, that alone made Marsh laugh.
“You. I will risk my life to stop it.”
Marsh’s smile deepened each time he could hear the distinct sound of the drake on which his men were riding turning and moving away, breaking through the sound of the rough wind. Conversely, Eldmia’s face distorted.
“Damn the demon lords. All of them are heroic in their sense of duty.”
Marsh burst into laughter at the unexpected remark that came out of his disgruntled mouth. Being heroic, it was a daily routine to be teased as a rat that gnaws at the assholes of enemies within the Demon King’s Army, but I never thought I’d hear something like that here.
Anyway, it didn’t feel bad.
“Ha, sure. What do you think we’re fighting for?”
“How the fuck do I know that. What are you fighting for?”
I wondered if he was being sarcastic with his harsh words coming out, but the expression on his face was that of someone he really didn’t know. Anyway, the purpose was to delay the time for his men to escape, so even at this moment, Marsh blocked the projectiles that were about to jump out of his right arm with his strength and answered as if chewing and spitting out.
“freedom.”
“…Haa, that’s absurd.”
It was a response closer to dejection than sarcasm. When Eldmia, who had lost her way and glared at Marsh on top of a flying dragon, opened her mouth again, the meaningless question that jumped out of there was a question.
“Near Ogwen in the west of Ethiel. What does the destruction of a small village without a name have to do with the freedom of the demons?”
What are you talking about?
The moment I thought that the doubt was revealed on my face, Eldmia let out a deep sigh.
“That’s crazy.”
Then, holding the sword in reverse, stabbed the dragon in the back without hesitation.
It didn’t take long before I understood what it meant to have a sword driven so deep that the cross guard touched the scales without resistance. However, even though I saw it with my eyes and understood it with my head, I couldn’t believe it, so I had to alternately look at the sword on the dragon’s back and the sad expression of Eldmia several times.
“You crazy bird…!”
Before the sentence that came out of her mouth could be completed, the flying dragon, which had been stabbed in a vital spot, trembled its wings once and began to fall.
