Academy’s Power Master

Subdue Goblin Colony (1)

“Are there any soldiers?”

“I can’t! The goblins are swept away and are chasing them right away!”

“Well, I see. Can you tell me the direction you went?”

“It’s over there!”

“Okay then, see you later. Even if it’s too much for the main unit, I think we’ll be able to catch even the looters.”

“Ahh… … thank you! thank you!”

“Please come back and find a place to rest.”

“Sure! I will prepare the best quality, knight!”

It’s not an article yet, but it doesn’t matter.

It wasn’t very nice to see the elderly village chief crouching down, but it was a fantasy world.

Even if they are the same age, there is a difference, and if they are commoners or slaves who are like their grandfathers, they have to crawl in front of young nobles.

In particular, the degree of bending was even worse as it was a situation where I had to ask for something.

“I leave without unpacking.”

“What? Is it too heavy to die?”

“I don’t know if important items disappear in the chaos.”

“… … Shit.”

We got off the wagon with only backpacks containing the main items except for the daily necessities in the wagon and immediately followed the chase route known by the village chief.

Estelle Bantam, who had the weakest health, grunted, but fortunately, Marlon Haster, who was still, came forward and tied her bag instead.

“If you are slow, you will fall behind. I am also the avant-garde who protects you.”

“… … Yes, thank you.”

With a blush on my face, thanking me, and seeing the youthful appearance of love blossoming, I left my seat as it was.

“If you are late, there is no soup!”

“… … Come with me!”

I ran first, followed by Natasha and Bella, and Estelle Bantam and Marlon Haster, but I didn’t care.

It’d be better to run out of breath than to see that kind of thing.

* * *

Hook- Whoo-wook- Hook-

There was a group of people running through the mountains with harsh breathing sounds.

“Damn goblins.”

“Damn, Kanna has been arrested!”

Due to the nature of a small village, most of the soldiers who guard the village are also young men who were born and raised in the village.

In other words, the villagers who were attacked by the goblins are also neighbors who have known each other for a long time or who have feelings for each other.

Therefore, it was natural for the soldiers with swords or spears to turn on the lights to chase the goblins.

But when you get angry, your vision narrows and you get out of breath quickly.

They didn’t notice the goblins running away while they were sprinting and hiding in the surrounding forest.

📻!

“… … Whoops!”

“It’s an attack!”

“Watch out for paralysis!”

“You have to draw the wounded area with a knife to get rid of the poison!”

“Damn it, Carlson!”

A single stinger from a dark place in the forest flies precisely into the neck of a soldier named Carlson.

It wasn’t poison that would kill people at once, but the paralyzing needle that hit the neck contained enough poison to paralyze the surroundings.

Carlson’s complexion turns pale as the muscles around his neck harden rapidly, and at the same time, the paralyzing venom that has penetrated deep into the airways begins to compress.

With a short dagger, he cut the spot where the paralyzing needle was struck and sucked out the black dead blood.

– Kek!

– Kerrleuk!

The faces of the soldiers turned pale at the sight of the goblins attacking with excited faces.

* * *

– aah!

“… … We are almost there.”

“The rear is behind.”

I paused for a moment at the voice I heard from afar, and nodded my head in response to Natasha’s words that followed.

“Malone is enough to protect Estelle Bantam. The same goes for Estelle Bantam.”

“Do you want us to go first?”

“Goblins don’t save men. I can’t help it because I’m probably going to kill you here and go back.”

“… … I will obey the commander’s orders.”

Leaving behind Marlon Haster and Estelle Bantam, he goes first and helps the soldiers.

That was my plan, and since the soldiers were made up of men, that was the answer.

Because goblins were monsters that killed men and only took women.

Of course, Estelle Bantam is also a woman, but in the first place, she was not a woman worthy of being attacked by a goblin, and there is a strong vanguard named Marlon Haster by her side.

“Then let’s go.”

“yes.”

“Please help Bella.”

“I know.”

With Bella’s assistant, I applied Haste magic to lighten the body and strength magic to increase muscle strength, and I ran like the wind to the place where the scream was heard.

Chaeng- Chaeeng- Chaeng!

In the field where the battle was already taking place, it was the soldiers who were pushed.

“Ugh, Hans!”

“I’m fine, so look ahead, you idiot!”

In general, one goblin can deal with one adult male.

Especially if you are a soldier-level man who is well-trained and equipped with appropriate weapons and armor.

But what if there are dozens of them, and in a melee where you have to take care of your mates, the other side rushes in without taking care of your mates or yourself?

Furthermore, what if you flinched at the decisive moment because you haven’t done a lot of killing?

The answer was fixed.

Quad Duck-

The goblin’s sharp teeth bit the nape of the neck that the armor couldn’t protect.

pooh-

The goblin’s rotten dagger strikes the armor and luckily digs into the weak spot.

“Aww!”

When the screams of the soldiers in pain exacerbate the situation, and the goblins riding on that momentum devour the soldiers as they are.

“Entangle.”

Quad Duck!

Huge tree roots grew under their feet and wrapped around them.

It is incomparable to that of Walpurgis, but when the goblins are puzzled by the power of the tree roots that are large enough and powerful.

win-

At the same time, he heard the sound of the end of a mana cigarette being burned by the fire of the lighter, and at the same time, the hem of his blue school uniform fluttered and Heize shot like a bullet.

Boom!

Even considering the soft soil floor, the soil scatters around and the earth vibrates in front of Heize’s very fast footsteps.

– Kek?

-Keruk… … .

For a moment, the goblins were bewildered by the sudden change.

“Once a guy.”

-… … !

Heize, who came closer, took a deep breath and at the same time clasped her bare hands tightly.

yet-

Kwajik!

A lightly clenched fist crushed the goblin’s green face and burrowed inside.

perfect attack.

The instantaneous death of the goblin as a result gave a shocking appearance to those around him, but-

– Keruk!

– Kerrleuk!

Goblins were intelligent, but only at that level.

People who are angry at the death of their comrades, but do not have the intelligence to guess the strength of their opponents.

The goblins rush towards Heize without even thinking about wiping their drooling lips.

From Heize’s point of view, it’s a slow movement, but from the goblins’ point of view, the speed of running to death.

and-

“I can’t go.”

-… … keek!

In front of them, a woman with white hair, beautiful enough to forget that the goblins were fighting, stopped them.

The moment when goblins excited when they see a woman spit out screams of joy along with grotesque screams.

spatula-

-Keek!

The screams of pain overshadowed the screams of joy.

The pain of being amputated was greater than any other pain, and the goblin scouts who faced it screamed and struggled.

But from the moment they couldn’t see their target because they were blinded by pain in battle, their defeat was not different from what was expected.

Whoops!

A well-refined long sword pierces the goblin’s skull as it is.

The moment when the brain is crushed and torn apart in the skull dug deep inside.

The goblin lost his mind to the pain.

That was the last attempt he could make, and it turned out to be quite successful.

The goblin, who was given a rest in the name of death, died with a painful face.

“next.”

“Natasha is fast.”

“Please don’t forget me either.”

Heize applauds as Natasha quickly moves on to the next after killing one.

Seeing Heize like that, even Bella shakes the staff to remember her too.

“What is this… … .”

Even though it was a surprise attack by goblins that even the soldiers made up of strong adult males were being pushed back helplessly, the soldiers looked at them with a puzzled look at the children who annihilated such a group of goblins with just the three of them.

* * *

“My name is Heize, a first-year field trainee at Ardian Academy. This is Natasha, this is Bella. Please feel free to call me. We are all commoners.”

“ah… … no. If you are an Ardian Academy student, you can become a nobleman in the future… … .”

“Anyway, you’re a commoner now, aren’t you? Anyway, is that what’s important now?”

“No, no. The village girls who were captured by the goblins… … .”

“Right. That’s first. Then you will collect the wounded and return to the village.”

“Yes? But we can’t just leave it to the trainees… … .”

After the situation was settled and a brief self-introduction was completed.

When I told him to go down the mountain to recover the wounded, the man who looked like a foreman leading the soldiers tried to shake his head with a frown on his face, but I was one step faster.

“They must have been taken to the place where the goblin headquarters was. It’s not like the whole colony, but there must be some goblins that aren’t formidable. right?”

“… … Is that right?”

“Then can you be sure that you are the help, not the burden, in that strife?”

“… … .”

I couldn’t be sure.

My teammates, including myself, could say it right away, but no one, including the Ten Commander in front of me, was able to express their convictions at once.

I smiled at him and patted his shoulder.

“It is nothing to be ashamed of. We came here for that. So, go back to your village, rest well, and get treatment. All you need is a guide and help to subdue the colony.”

“… … Only the knights will believe.”

I nodded, smiling bitterly as I looked at the ten people who called me a knight instead of an apprentice and used honorifics.

“Where is your headquarters?”

“If you go straight like this, you will be there. Because it’s a surprise attack in front of you… … .”

“Comfortable and nice.”

Fortunately, the main goblin squadron that broke away from the colony was located not far away.

When you smile with satisfaction because the distance is so far that you don’t need a guide.

“Isn’t it a bit dangerous to go with those three people?”

Seeing him unable to let go of his worries until the very end, I just raised my hand and pointed to the back without saying a word.

“ah… … .”

“Not three, but five. Not like us, but they… … They are strong students. Is there an answer?”

“Loyalty. I wish you all the best.”

“Yes, I am loyal too.”

After checking Estelle Bantam and Marlon Haster, I went straight ahead as I watched the soldiers descending the mountain with a relieved expression on their faces.

“hey! Come with me!”

“… … Now I wanted to catch up, but I can’t help it. Get up, Bantam Youngae.”

“under… … However… … .”

“Are you going to suck your fingers again like this? It’s a team evaluation, but there must also be individual evaluations, right?”

“… … Excuse me.”

Estelle Bantam screamed as he watched the leader move away in an instant, but the lead did not stop, and in the end, Estelle Bantam followed Marlon Haster on his back.

To be precise, Marlon Haster, who carried her, was running.
