Kuro no Maou

"I can't believe there really was a survivor..."

Charlotte's actions were futile, but not futile.

Inside the barrier, there are villagers with strong feet, although the expression of fatigue and fear comes to mind.

There seems to be nothing here, but there was originally a meeting place in the village. The wooden buildings on the ground were ravaged by rats, barely showing signs of a ruin... but there was actually a basement here.

It is a basement in case of emergency.

When they overflowed the tunnel, the Dwarf engineer who built it immediately rushed into the basement with a voice to those nearby. And they were the only ones who survived.

Fortunately, the rat didn't break into the basement, and we have food stockpiles here.

It served as a blessed shelter, but how many believed that help would come here? I don't know when I choose to die from despair.

At that time, Charlotte was the first to rush to them.

I must have been wrong to decide that there can no longer be a survivor.

Or we didn't have enough power to rescue the survivors, was Charlotte wrong?

I can't tell you which one was right.

The only thing I can tell you is that we're all lucky.

The villagers who were able to evacuate the basement, Charlotte who ran to the village without thinking about it first, and we had enough power to rescue them who were isolated among the enemies.

Now that each has made their own decision, the best results are within reach.

"Don't panic, get in the carriage in turn! The carriage... is this the carriage?

"Princess, I wonder if the details are okay with me."

"That's right! Ride the carriage with your children and the elderly!

Charlotte, whose strength, magic, and energy were restored by Nell's healing magic, vigorously raised his voice and led the villagers out of the basement for the first time in a few days.

Their survival was unexpected, but I was right to have the Iron Spider pull the van in case it did.

Wherever you look at the body of a steel four-legged walker, it's hard to say that it's a carriage, but anything is fine as long as you can ride a person. The iron spider has horsepower that can run macho yeti together and kill them, and the truck that pulls them is also built to be robust for battlefield use. A good vehicle for transporting non-combatants.

We managed to pack up a dozen people, and boarding is complete.

"We're coming, too!

"Withdraw! Withdraw!

The knights who had dropped off their horses for defense also returned to the cavalry.

Looks like they put their horses in the fence and protected them. There is no shortage of escape legs.

However, if everyone gets on the horse, there will be no attackers from the barrier. I'll put up some fire defense magic to keep them away from me... but for a short while, they climbed into the bulkhead on the attacker.

Prim, cover me.

"Yes, my lord."

The key to holding it here is Sariel, who can attack from the air, and Primes, who can also handle white warfare. And it was Kai and Nell.

There are only four of them, but they have enough power to stop the enemy from approaching.

Among them, Nell's first battle caught my eye.

On the barrier, he shakes the wand in his left hand and continues to cast more healing magic on the knights. As he approaches him, he blows off with his right hand.

In addition, when the wings were spread with a pale green glow, the wind's defensive magic was spread all at once, wiping off the climbing ones.

In this turmoil, when you're dealing with healing magic, you activate even more magic... it's not a level of multitasking. It is only Nell's talent to simultaneously perform short and medium range attacks and support with a calm face.

"Nell! Kai! That's enough, let's go!!

For a short while, the knight also completes the ride and starts shooting attack magic again immediately.

Nell and Kai also jumped off the barrier and jumped straight onto their horses. I mean, they both called their horses with their fingers and whistles, right? What's so cool? I'll imitate it next time. Let's start by practicing the finger whistle.

Fiona, go ahead and clear the way out.

"Roger that. Where's Mr. Krono?

"I am Your Highness."

"Is that okay with the commander?

"Ain will do well. I have just the right thing to do to stop them chasing."

Well, I'll take care of it.

The roads we broke into were blocked from entering by black and red flame walls, but they were turning around before we could get through them.

Those who stand in the way must kick them off and stop pursuing them.

Yeti form is not as fast as a horse, but it has a sufficiently agile leg. It cannot be easily pulled apart. Worst of all, there is a risk that the flock will follow you to the village as the train goes.

We need to stop the crowd here.

"----" Burial by Fire (Ignis Force Blast)"

Today, signaling the explosion of the second advanced range attack magic, the cavalry that houses the survivors runs along the path protected by the flames.

I'll make Mary run for the rear end.

"Master. Prim will cover you."

And Prim next to me.

I'm glad you came back, but I didn't give you clear instructions when I pulled you off the barrier.

"Are you worried? Thank you."

I wonder if the Commander would be worried about you alone or under your command. Fiona and Saliel have something to think about, so they don't have to turn their minds around.

Anyway, there's no need to bring the Primes back now. The knights have also regained a certain amount of power thanks to Nell, so by attacking each of them, they will be able to fully secure their breakthroughs.

"Well, Prim, take a good look at your husband's masculinity while shooting at him."

Drawing from the shadows while wearing such a cool outfit is a long, dark pattern.

The singing Tombguard Blade, "The Horned Grave."

"Chant-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A gruesome cursed voice echoes from a tall black sword. Wake the unclean dead, the melody of blasphemy.

Even under the clear winter sky, the appearance of the translucent spirit and the demonic spirit quickly began to drift around. Drifting through the universe like a fish swimming underwater, wandering in search of living vessels.

So, what's the biggest creature on this planet right now?

It's settled, these yeti rats are swarming all over the snowfields.

Gyoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Yeti, who was closest to me, screamed madly and was eaten by his neighbors.

Suddenly, the allies peel off their teeth and roll to rub together as they scream, causing them to swallow up as they push forward.

This sight is expanding everywhere and quickly.

Evil spirits possess even if they're not human. If you possess a living person, you become a madman possessed by evil spirits, and if you possess a corpse, you become a zombie or a skeleton. And even if it's possessed by a monster, it's just as crazy, or if it's a corpse, it becomes an undead monster.

Yeti mice are quite physically resistant to one individual, but they lack magic resistance. I saw less resistance to possession by evil spirits.

Besides, there's a lot of bodies rolling around here. The yeti form of the body, which is only about the size of a large human, is a sense of size that can be moved if even one evil spirit possesses it.

In other words, if you activate the "Dark Temple of Anti-Sound Songs (Reyem Hall)", which can summon a large number of evil spirits in this place and at this moment, there will be a great turmoil with the clan's undead in no time.

"Hey, hey, what's this lousy voice!? There's no richness in the back!!

"Well, it's okay, Char. Because I am the limit of light, and evil spirits are prevented."

Hmm, after all, the "Horned Grave" singing is very unpopular to the general public.

I tried to keep it as far away from the effect as I could, but I still hear creepy screams like women's golden trumpets over there.

I'm glad you asked Nell not to send evil spirits to the border just in case. If you let an ally possess a Ukkali Evil Spirit, it will fall into the worst category as a friendly fire. I don't want to beat Fiona in such a place.

"It may not feel good, but this is the only way to stop them."

I don't think Charlotte can hear you apologizing now. Just hang in there and run.

"Is Prim okay?

"The mental interference blocking function is working properly. No problem."

Stream stones are ancient armor, and the defenses around here are perfect. If you're exposed to evil spirits even in Homunkurus, you'll normally possess them. Proven in battle with Lily.

"Hehehe! The Tomb Guardian Live is awesome!!

And this singing is popular with cursed weapons. The tension of the sheep is rising, but, well, there won't be any more.

"Do it yourself. What's going on?"

Behind me is a hell of a beast and a beast.

For evil spirits, the overwhelming crowd will only look like an all-around feast. We can't even see it running away, and if we stretch out our nails, we'll attack the clan from one end.

Those who are possessed alive and those who have risen from the corpses are a minority compared to the total number of masses. However, while my "dark temple of anti-soul songs" continues to resonate, the newly fallen ones are immediately manipulated by evil spirits to increase their number.

The zombie pandemic is like an accelerating number of evil spirit mice, and there is a huge struggle between the living mice who can't tell if they are already chasing us or if they are fighting the clan in front of us.

It's a terrible sight to call a hell of a picture, but it's a very helpful situation for us to escape. Just hang on a second, and we'll cut each other up.

Too many of you are bad. This is also a kind of natural selection.

With such irresponsibility in mind, I drove Mary gently through the "Horned Grave" like a car radio for a while.

The 28th of the moon of dawn.

We safely evacuated the survivors of the Pioneering Village to Dakia Village.

The rats fell apart well, but I don't know when the crowd will start moving. I pushed a little too hard to keep going and managed to reach the village of Dakia in the evening.

The village of Dakia is packed with evacuees from nearby villages, mercenaries and adventurers who were on security quests, as well as Charlotte's "Tempest" main unit, which is a huge crowd.

Villagers who had been evacuated first could also be seen in the villages presenting the refugee camps. Homunkurus and the others seem to have successfully accomplished their mission alone.

On the other hand, some people couldn't accomplish their mission.....

"Uu... uu..."

"Charles, cheer up. The people of Takumura were able to help."

"Hehe, don't cry because you're angry!

"Shut up! I'm not crying!!

Charlotte seems to have been blamed for his monopoly on Takumi village rescue.

Nell gently welcomed her out of the Dakia Village Adventurers Guild, which had temporarily become the front line command, and Kai seemed to be tearing up happily.

"What will Charles do now?

"Go home to Sparta...."

"Seriously, Tempest, did you get fired?"

"No, idiot!!

Are you depressed or well?

Charlotte is not just a knight, she is a princess. It seems that King Leonhart, the father and king, will decide the punishment when it is done.

The decision not to treat this incident as a problem, but to punish it will be tough. Normally, there is an image that the royal tenderness was not repeated.

The captain of Sparda's 2nd Battalion, Tempest, is Simon's sister-in-law, General Emelia Friedrich Valdier. She seemed to be a tough beauty, but she still had an unforgiving rudeness against any opponent. Don't you have a general on Date?

Well, I don't suppose she even imagined that would happen before Charlotte dispatched her team.

"Hah... I'm going back to Sparta tomorrow morning. I don't think I'm going to be a part of the rat sweep."

Let's go back to Sparta together, Charles.

"Tomorrow, we're gonna have a squad on the rat hunt, right? The boulder is" Tempest, "it's a quick fix."

Looks like we don't have a chance anymore.

First thing in the morning, General Emilia's army leaves for rat annihilation and Charlotte is returned to Sparta.

"What about us? There's still time for the quest."

"If the army comes this far, the quest itself may be interrupted. You should check with the guild tomorrow morning."

Fiona replied indifferently as to whether the situation had already been experienced.

Certainly, there is no need for platoon-sized mercenary regiments or individual adventurers to continue to guard beyond these numbers of troops. I'm going to get angry if I don't go to hell.

Dakia territory will already be designated as an area of operations for the Spartan army.

"Anyway, there's no work we can do here anymore, and it would be better to get back soon without wasting time."

I see. Let's just check in the morning and we'll go back to Sparta. "

There were many unexpected events… Without missing one of the Regiment members, the desperate survivors were rescued, and the quest was able to achieve maximum results. Our first Dark Knights job was a huge success.

I was so satisfied that I decided to have some delicious food tonight. Caroboo life is over, over!

Because the place is a place, it doesn't even bother you flashy, but it's good enough to celebrate the success of your first job and give you a small toast. All the groceries and alcohol we brought in.

As soon as it was decided, the cooking team headed by Sariel and led by Sebastiano and Rottenmayer's butler, Combi, quickly started the operation. I didn't have a heart, I looked more stubborn than a guard.

"I guess this is the end of the line."

Are you still eating?

It's Fiona, who's in a luxurious environment with me and no shreds.

No matter how you feel, you will be prepared, but the situation will remain the same. In a few moments, the tent we set on the outskirts of the village will be filled with hot dishes and a cup of ale.

"--Hey, I'm in your way!

"Oh, excuse me...."

And at this moment, the customer came. I don't remember calling my guests, but it was definitely Kai and Nell.

"Sorry, Kurono-kun. Are you sure you weren't interrupting?"

"Never mind. I thought I'd thank you both again when we got back to Sparta, but if you came, I'd welcome you."

"I don't need such a hard thank-you. You can have a drink here now, that's enough."

"But is that okay? I thought they were following Charlotte."

"Do you have Charles?

As Khai shrugged away from her body, a small red twin-tailed girl appeared from behind.

It was definitely Charlotte himself.

"Well, hello... welcome."

I think if you eat it with a ruthless feeling again, my reaction will become hard.

……

Charlotte, on the other hand, looked restless in the tent, with a mushy expression. It's kind of like a cat brought in by a stranger.

"Ah... thank you."

What?

"Thank you! Come and help me....."

It seemed very bad, but she said so clearly a word of gratitude.

I didn't think it was time for Princess Charlotte to thank me....
