68 . Suffice.

Dozens of cadets disembark from the numerous wagons that arrived on the Eastern Front. They looked at each other and began to notice each other, but there was a bit of hostility in them.

Seeing this, Ian looked at them as if it was absurd. Of course, it was the principal who made this competition… It had to be a fair competition.

A cadet is a competitor, not an enemy. shouldn’t have forgotten that.

“At this time, replenishment is coming.”

“As they are still cadets, it may be difficult for incumbents to see… It wouldn’t be that bad.”

“Well, just standing there is enough.”

Eastern Front Marshal, Earl of Islan welcomed the cadets.

As he said, the actual difference between the cadets and the nobles was not much.

This is because the abilities of a pet grow when they level up, not through experience, and only Ian knew how to level up.

“Cadets, your support. I am very grateful… I’m sorry, but you have to move right away without taking a break.”

“… Are the wires too busy?”

“Are you that busy?”

At the question of a cadet, Byungbaek burst out laughing broadly. I did it because it was too funny a question to hear.

The Count, who had been laughing for a while, wiped the tears from his eyes and opened his mouth.

“Whew… Students, I can promise you one thing.”

The Count, who had been sticking with the twists and turns, opened his mouth, revealing his yellow teeth.

“A week from now, there will be no time to sleep. Sweethearts.”

Far East North Pole South Pole.

The absolute defense line of each area that the 4th Duke took charge of and protected originally had quite a lot of battles, but in recent weeks, a lot of demonic monsters were coming.

Just as the breeding monsters sent their young to the realm of humanity, they were continuously cutting down on humanity’s stamina.

If you explain that the count, who is the most powerful person in the territory, has not been able to bathe for two weeks, you can easily see how serious it is.

In such a situation, the center, that is, the academy, sent reinforcements to each region.

“Don’t even think about going outside the walls! Surrounded to die!”

“Don’t even think about recovering the monster’s corpse! Give up!”

Looking down from the top of the fortress wall, Ian frowned at the incredible number of monsters.

Upon closer inspection, it was a human-sized insect. A monster that can defeat dozens of single-star summoned beasts alone.

In the game, dozens were judged to be one, so they were weak and weak.

But when this becomes a reality… The story has changed slightly.

‘crazy… .’

In the game, dozens of monsters are treated as one, and as a result, dozens of monsters are swept away with one attack by the summons.

At the same time, the dozens of insects attacking the summoned beast was treated as a single attack.

Has it become a reality now? There is no such correction. Dozens of insects attacked dozens of times, and the summons had to attack dozens of times to defeat the insects.

Instantly, the consumption of stamina has doubled from the previous one, and even the attack power of insects that have been reduced to one-tenth is very threatening.

Even if you can’t cut the breath of a pet at once, you can eat a piece of flesh.

What if you cut it down a little bit? In the end, such a structure in which humanity, in short supply, has no choice but to be wiped out.

“Are you holding the magic stone well?”

“Uh, huh? then. Sure.”

All of that- It was a meaningless story to Ian. Ian left a message to the cadets who followed behind him, telling him to hold on to his magic stone.

A magic tool that automatically checks the number of monsters defeated – I don’t know how it works, but I thought it was magic.

It’s not about stopping time or jumping over space, it’s just counting… … There was nothing surprising about it.

“Empress.”

[Are you okay? Summoner?]

“You are right.”

Ian raised his hand and called her. Empress, who knew that she had never revealed herself in front of others, fluttered in a very worried voice—but she could not summon Anna or Theresia against such a large number of demons.

Because the two of them were special interpersonal summons.

“If the summoner says so- this body appears☆.”

And the Empress, who suddenly appeared, sat down lightly on the ground. The cadet, who saw the beauty suddenly appeared, looked at Ian in surprise.

Rumors that he was dealing with humanoids and that he had two pets were widespread and everyone knew it.

At the same time, even the form of those summoned beasts… They both said that they were knights wearing colorful armor.

On the other hand, what about the summons that appeared in front of you? Not even armor, but a loose cloth, a hooded hat, and even a staff. It wasn’t a knight, but a witch-like bird.

“Come on, and— as soon as it appears, a special move!”

Empress, who appeared, raised his wand, slightly exasperated by the actual battle he had been experiencing for a long time. Below the wall, the staff is aimed at countless insects.

Empress’s Original Arts – A special random spell from the Great Witch.

If you don’t know what kind of magic will come out in the game, and that’s why it was a luck-fighting skill that completely depended on the player’s luck.

Now that it has become a reality, it has become a god skill that always draws out magic that is completely based on Empress’s will, and thus optimized for dealing with enemies.

“Take it, Fireball!”

It was an absurdly modest name compared to her grandiose posture and magical power, but the tip of her wand began to create small sparks resembling the sun.

Seeing this, Ian could not understand why he gave the magic the cute name of Fireball.

Whoa-!

The fireball on the tip of the wand vibrates violently, and then the gear is shot out in the distance.

The crater, which I thought was flying too far for a monster directly below it, landed several hundred meters away from the wall.

And at that moment, the sun rose.

Woo-woo-woo!

The intense flames engulfed every insect-type monster, and that wasn’t enough, the heat reached the top of the castle walls.

The summoners who were leading the summons on the wall were staring blankly at the crater with a blank expression on their faces.

“What… … .”

“Who is… .”

There is no tag for a 2-star summon, and a blow that looks very difficult even with a 3-star summon.

Surprised by the performance that only dukes with 4-star summons can show, the summoners look around to find the owner of the crater.

“Whoa, how are you? Summoner. I’ve been using it for a while.”

Whether or not he knew that others were looking for him, Empress spoke with a confident attitude with her chest open.

Ian applauded without saying a word. Empress’s nose rose even more at that sight.

Shortly after the incident, I was called by the martyr. Seeing me, he warmed up his face and waved his hand warmly.

“Come on!”

As if he had just taken a bath, he became soft and held my hand with his handsome face.

And then I started stroking the back of my hand as if I was taking care of it, but I got goosebumps because it was not a woman, but a man who was doing this, so I pulled my hand back without realizing it.

“… … What are you doing?”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I was so excited.”

He sat down and drank his tea to calm his excitement. He drank hot tea as if he was drinking cold water, so he refilled another cup and drank the tea.

“Whoa- this tastes good.”

“… Are you all right?”

“It’s okay. On the contrary, if I don’t drink like this, I won’t feel full… Anyway, do you know why I called you?”

I do not know. I didn’t even want to let them know that I didn’t know. I just smiled and didn’t say anything, and then he roughly guessed what I was thinking and explained why he called me.

“It’s to say thank you.”

“… Thank you?”

“Yeah, I struggled for days with those damn worms – didn’t you fix it all at once? No matter how cool it is.”

After hearing those words, I started to understand to some extent.

Even if you are like me, after suffering for weeks without being able to wash your hands because of a human-sized insect that entered your house, if Cesco appeared and burned the insect to death at once, you would have felt a similar exhilaration.

“So, you probably didn’t call me to say that… .”

“Of course not! … Hey, have you ever heard of guerrillas?”

“… … Is it a gimmick?”

I listened to it, slept, and trained so much that I got tired of it. Even just hearing the name guerrilla makes my teeth tremble.

When I showed that I knew what a guerrilla was, the Count gave me a bright smile and explained what I was doing.

“This is the power of demons investigated by our reconnaissance team.”

“Hmm. It’s pretty close.”

“And this is the map I made a month ago.”

Saying so, the Count handed me two maps. I involuntarily exclaimed at the clear difference between the two.

“… Only one month?”

“okay.”

“In a month, you’ve been pushing so much, but you haven’t taken any action?”

“Did I just play for a month?”

Those words reminded me of his mourning when I just arrived here. It was such a filthy demeanor that even a civilized person would never have thought of.

After thinking about it, I could see that it wasn’t that he didn’t do anything for a month, but that he had stopped this much because he did his best.

“I am ashamed to say this to a cadet, but… Right now, in our territory, there are no summoners who can inflict damage on demons.”

“… Are you in a hurry to stop it?”

“Yeah, but now I can afford it. Enough to divert the power that would go into defense into attack.”

“The best defense is an attack.”

“You know good things.”

If you keep blocking it forever, it will eventually collapse. The way to block the enemy’s attack was to attack the enemy in reverse and push the enemy away.

“Will you not do it?”

He said so and handed me a map. That would be a very shameful thing to say as well.

How shameful it is to become an adult and leave everything to a child, and how shameful it is to become a noble and have to appoint a cadet to operate.

‘The reward is… Probably not.’

Dangerous goals, less rewards.

A dangerous mission to enter a place with life-threatening enemies.

The only thing that can be achieved by success is the peace and the future of mankind.

“I’ll do it.”

However, wouldn’t that be enough?
