Episode 139. Appetizer

“You’re finally showing your true colors. Did you come to hand me over to them yourself?”

Tinuviel gave Aaron a cold glare and said.

Next to Aaron was a high-level wind spirit, Jin.

It seemed that he had watched the situation from afar and then quickly approached with the help of the spirit.

“Ugh, you’re talking harshly to the incarnation of the World Tree.”

Aaron smiled, trembled, and strode towards the queen.

“Oh, don’t come!”

“If you come any further, I will slash you!”

The guards raised their swords with nervous faces.

“You dare to point a sword at me? That’s blasphemy, these things.”

Aaron pushed their swords away with his fingers and crouched down in front of the queen.

[I resisted the bondage of darkness cast by Warchief Grimgor (Lv. 102).]

[You have resisted Dark Binding cast by Warchief Grimgor.]

As soon as I touched the shadow, a warning message appeared and a black shadow wriggled around my arm.

[Casted by Warchief Grimgor… Magic haters destroy the target skill.]

Grimgor’s sorcery, which tried to climb up Aaron’s hand, was blocked by magic haters and wriggled like a slime on fire, and eventually escaped as if fleeing from the shadow of the queen.

“… … .”

The queen as well as the guards guarding her looked at Aaron as if they were dumbfounded.

The sorcery that bound the queen spewed out a demonic energy so vicious that even the power of the World Tree could not dispel it.

I thought I would die defending the queen here, but Aaron broke the spell just by putting his hand on it.

‘Is it really the incarnation of the World Tree?’

‘The words of the druids might be true.’

The knights and soldiers of the Royal Guard looked at each other and muttered to themselves.

They sided with the queen even when all the citizens of Elrond worshiped Aaron, but at this point their firm loyalty began to waver.

If Aaron was really the incarnation of the World Tree, it would have been disrespectful to side with the Queen and block his path.

“Put down your sword.”

The captain of the guard gave a brief command and lowered the sword that was aimed at Aaron.

Then the other guards pretended not to be victorious, let their guard down and lowered their swords.

“… … her.”

The Queen looked at them with a big smile.

Even the Royal Guard, the last rope, turned to Aaron’s side, and my heart sank as if I was left alone in the world.

“Please understand. queen. The situation is urgent right now, so we have to cooperate with Lee.”

The captain of the guards tried to avoid the queen’s gaze and said.

Aaron nodded as if satisfied with the docile attitude of the guards.

“You take the queen and go first. I’ll follow after watching the orcs.”

“I will.”

The captain of the guard responded immediately as if he had waited, then embraced the hardened queen with both hands.

“It can’t be like this. I can’t do this… … .”

The queen looked at the captain of the guards with resentful eyes, limp like a corpse.

“Hold tight. queen.”

However, the captain of the guard ignored her words in one ear and started running toward Elrond again.

[Magic is detected.]

Shortly after the Guard left, a black shadow shot out from Grimgor’s side once more.

The shadow tried to ignore Aaron as it had passed under the feet of the guards before.

“No.”

Instead of avoiding the shadow, Aaron strode forward and stepped on it first.

[You have resisted Dark Binding cast by Warchief Grimgor.]

The shadow stepped on by the black steel boots could not return to the caster this time and disappeared.

“… … .”

Grimgor stopped and glared at Aaron.

A man who blew away dozens of vanguard orcs from a distance and unleashed the black magic with his bare hands that even the power of the World Tree could not solve.

His youthful face, not even wearing a helmet, overflowed with unknown confidence.

“hey! Grimgor! long time no see!”

Aaron waved his Cosmos and shouted.

Even among the many orcs, he was looking straight at Grimgor.

‘… … what?’

Cracks appeared on Grimgor’s face, which hadn’t moved.

He was born in the wasteland and had never encountered a human until he raided the Great Forest.

From noble mtl dot com

But Aaron, as if he had known them for a long time, was looking straight at him out of all the orcs.

“Why is the man with the name Warchief hiding there? Am I that scary?”

Aaron continued to provoke in a loud voice.

Orc society is thoroughly chieftain-centered.

The position and responsibility of the chieftain is so important, and the act of a chieftain falling back after being frightened in battle was dishonorable enough to immediately deprive him of his position and expel him from the tribe.

“The warchief is behind you?”

“Come to think of it, I haven’t seen you since before?”

“Are you really behind me?”

The orcs, who had been hesitant for a moment after the vanguard collapsed with Aaron’s blow, belatedly figured out Grimgor’s location and murmured.

It is understandable that other shamans strategically support the rear, so the warchief must advance with the other warriors in the vanguard or behind the vanguard.

But Grimgor at first seemed to be in the vanguard, leading the crowd, but at one point he stopped and watched the warriors advance.

As if he was afraid to approach Aaron.

This hadn’t happened since he united the orc tribes.

“Warchief! What happened!”

“Are you really scared!”

Orcs finally began to openly express their dissatisfaction.

“These fools… … .”

“It is not out of fear that we follow you.”

Grimgor cut off his resentment, and someone stepped forward.

He was a head taller than the other orc warriors, and rivaled Grimgor in stature.

“If you really are the warchief, stand in the vanguard and lead us. If you don’t want to do that, resign your post as warchief right away and get out of here.”

The large orc continued.

It was his charisma, always leading his pack in the vanguard and trampling his enemies without mercy, that kept him loyal to Grimgor, even when he treated the rest of his people like tools.

However, if he hesitated to advance after being frightened by a human like that, he was not qualified as a warchief.

“… … .”

Grimgor twitched his fangs and looked around.

Before he knew it, the orcs stopped advancing and surrounded him closely.

“What about our Grimgor? Are your friends very angry?”

Aaron continued to throw firewood at the orcs who were slowly rising in anger.

“Blow the horn of retreat. It is dangerous to go further.”

Grimgor gave orders calmly, not yielding to his provocations.

His original purpose was to capture the queen and use her to conquer Elrond.

However, the risk was too great to advance further now that the queen had been lost.

Besides, it was foolish to go in and provoke him openly like that.

“retreat?”

“Did you just say retreat?”

However, the orcs, who had already lost their trust in the warchief, interpreted his words differently.

“hey! these bastards! The warchief calls for retreat! Fuhahahahaha!”

“When were you told to charge? Are you talking bullsh*t now?”

“I guess you’re just saying this because you don’t want to be in the vanguard?”

“Are you really scared?”

As soon as the word “retreat” came out, the dissatisfaction that had accumulated among the orcs flowed out like a flood.

It was not a strategic decision to issue a retreat order, but it was thought to be frightened by Aaron.

‘I got hit.’

Grimgor muttered inwardly, watching the reaction around him indifferently.

Aaron had shaken the warriors’ loyalty before he could make the right decision.

They knew this was going to happen and hit the ball ahead of time.

‘It’s a rebellion if you don’t.’

In my heart, I wanted to turn all these stupid people into undead without intelligence, but there were too many of them.

No matter how powerful he was, he could not handle such a large number of warriors and shamans without preparation.

Do you stand in the vanguard and advance to calm the orcs’ dissatisfaction, or do you resign as warchief and quietly retreat?

There were only two options.

flash-

Grimgor’s anguished eyes briefly flashed green.

It was a fleeting moment, but he saw it clearly.

The World Tree, which had lost its light as if it had withered, was slowly regaining its strength.

“… … Gagtum. From now on, you are the warchief.”

Grimgor turned his warchief over to the hulking orc who had initially complained to him.

“… … !”

The orcs, who had been staring at Grimgor nervously, opened their eyes wide at the sight of him slowly withdrawing.

Until now, he had killed anyone who stood against him without mercy, regardless of his enemies, which was strange.

“But I trust my judgment. This is the manipulative scheme that this bastard has staged to tear us apart. Know that I’m stepping down because I don’t want to engage in a pointless fight with you guys.”

said Grimgor, pointing over the orc horde.

Aaron was still crossing the river with his arms crossed, staring at the orcs in disbelief.

“Follow those who believe in me! And blow the horn of retreat!”

Grimgor shouted, lifting himself up.

As he retreated past the orc troops, numerous orcs who were watching followed him and left the group.

‘As expected, it doesn’t come over.’

Aaron murmured to himself as he watched Grimgor quickly move away.

Even when the other orcs advanced without looking back, he did not come within the range of the veil until the end.

Seeing that the queen did not move even when under the spell, it seemed that he had no intention of entering until he had secured her.

‘okay. I should save on delicious food.’

It would have been better if Grimgor had been caught, but the situation wasn’t too bad.

This is because while conflicts broke out in Grimgor’s direct unit, Orc units from other directions were irretrievably driven deep.

woo- woo-

After a while, a series of shrieking horns were heard from the direction Grimgor had left.

An urgent alarm to retreat immediately regardless of the reason.

The other orc troops, who had been narrowing the siege from all sides of Elrond, hesitated for a moment when they heard the sound of the horn, and then began retreating to their original positions.

“Ignore that noise! We continue to march on Elrond!”

“let’s go! let’s go!”

“Wow!”

On the other hand, Gagtum, who became the new warchief, started running towards Elrond with the remaining troops under his direct control.

The warchief’s direct command unit advanced, while the other units fled, and the grotesque picture lasted for a while.

“It is spectacular.”

Aaron looked at the situation unfolding in front of him as if he was having fun, then reached out his hand toward the sky.

“A wave of power!”

[Spirit is reduced by 5%.]

Puff!

The red ball of energy ejected from his hand dyed the sky even more red at dawn.

Flash-!

And a few seconds later, a green light exploded from the top of the World Tree, and the protective shield, which had been thought to have disappeared, was restored in an instant.

“What, what!”

“The veil has reappeared!”

“Don’t push! Don’t push, you bastards!”

“Wow!”

Hearing the sound of the horn, the retreating orcs stopped in shock at the sudden appearance of the protective curtain.

The Orcs, who had been moving in an orderly manner, quickly became disorganized, and the unlucky ones in the rear couldn’t overcome their inertia and crashed into the curtain and were turned to dust.

“All troops! Charge!”

“Show these ignorant people what divinity is!”

“Waaa!”

At the same time, white light exploded in Elrond, which was as quiet as death, and the heavily armed Holy Legion poured out like a wave.

“Then let’s enjoy the appetizer first.”

Aaron muttered in a low voice as he watched the white waves attacking the orcs.

“To Soul.”

[Expresses the rune with the soul.]

[Detects all demonic entities within a radius of 1km.]

[Dark Light Apophis’s appearance and abilities are temporarily changed.]

The black armor that covered her body began to emit a bright light.
