While waiting for the soldiers of the 1st and 2nd platoons to return to command after their assignment, Kazuya decided to confirm the perks they had gained and the ability they had taken from killing Tripper.

(――――――――)
I appreciate the ability above but the ability below......
Well, should there be more than none?
What does "()" say more under incest than that? Can't you read it?
When Kazuya confirms the privileges and abilities he has acquired and is tilting his neck, the soldiers who have completed their mission return.
"1st and 2nd platoons. I just returned!!
"Thank you for your hard work, get some rest"
When ordered to rest well enough for the soldiers who had returned safely, Kazya chose a soldier who had not been on reconnaissance, and when he formed the platoon, he decided to go see the fort found by the 9th Squad.
"Well, I'm going to look at the fort"
"What...? What about me? Your husband, I..."
"Oh, Thousand Years stay in command and take command. I'll keep more ammunition stockpiles just in case, so I asked for backup if anything happened."
"No... Master!! Please take me as your deputy, don't you need me anymore for your husband!?
That being said, a thousand years old wraps around a disturbing aura, stuffed into a kazuya with dark eyes without light.
What, I didn't mean to say that... I suddenly yandered it.
"Yes, no, I didn't mean to say that. It's just that there's only a thousand years old who can handle this place."
"... yes... right, your husband shouldn't have dumped me"
Thousand years old smiled in relief at Kazuya's words.
"Then I'll take care of the command."
"Ha, I'll take care of the command."
A thousand years old answers Kazuya's words with a smile as he salutes them.
I was surprised when I suddenly yandered it.
Though Kazuya was a thousand-year-old leopard weirdly fearful inside, the words of a thousand-year-old grunting did not reach Kazuya's ear.
"... if your husband dumps me... you don't know what will happen? Huff, huff."
The thousand-year-old words, interspersed with awesomeness and seriousness, melted into the sky without entering anyone's ears.
――――――――――――
All right, 1st Platoon, let's go.
"" "Understood" "
Kazuya heads to the fort when he speaks to a platoon that was already waiting in a state of readiness.
It's like a picnic.
Hmm? Pick me up?
"I've been waiting for you, Captain General. The fort is here."
After a defensive position with command, two soldiers from the 9th detachment joined us for directions as we walked in the woods for a while.
As I follow the directions, suddenly, the woods open and the meadows show up.
And there was a reported fortress secluded in the middle of that meadow.
"This... is definitely a fort. It's surrounded by old, but seemingly sturdy exterior walls, and the gates are fine."
The fort was made by stones and trees and was a wider and firmer thing than Kazuya thought.
But a long time had passed since it was abandoned, and the fort was buried in half of the grass with twigs everywhere in the fort.
Then I'll call the Squad Leader.
That's what the directing soldier said and ran into the fort first.
But why isn't this fort on the map? Because this is the abandoned fort?
Why is there a fort here, and why is it not on the map?
When Kazuya thinks about it, the Squad Leader comes running.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Exploring and securing the fort is complete, would you like to see the inside?
"Right, let's make sure, just in case."
"Come this way, then."
Kazuya went inside the fort following the Squad Leader's guidance.
... nothing.
There were just a few, tedious buildings in the fort and nothing else.
Kazuya chose the building that seemed to be the most sturdy, and when he went inside, he ordered the correspondents to position the equipment so that he could communicate with the command at any time.
At the same time, issue an order to explore the fort in more detail to see if there are any hidden doors or passages in the platoon you brought in.
And for about an hour, after the platoon thoroughly investigated the fort.
Kazuya had heard from Lieutenant Ibuki, who would serve as captain of the platoon that brought the report as a result.
"Firstly, this fort, where we are, is about three kilometers away from the command. Also the size of the fort is about 250 meters vertical and horizontal, and only the gate in the front can get in and out. No hidden passages or doors were discovered."
"Well, there's nothing particularly problematic about that."
"Yes, I looked around at the fort too, but there's nothing that's going to be a problem, and if I insist, it's about the aging of the exterior walls and buildings because of the long time that has elapsed since they were abandoned."
Kazuya peered outside as he had a conversation with Lieutenant Ibuki
Then I realize that the sun is leaning towards dusk.
Well, did you spend a little too much time exploring the fort?
Kazuya thought so when he saw the sky as the sun fell through the window of the building and the night sky was becoming.
Well, it's no rush business, and you want to spend the night in this fort before you go home.
The demons are starting to move vigorously at night and it will be dangerous.
Kazuya put safety first and decided to spend the night in this fort before returning.
Then, he asked the platoon to assemble when he told the telecommuters to tell him that.
"Due to sunset today, I decided to spend the night at this fort before returning. Avoid acting alone just in case, at least two or more of us act together. Rest and vigilance will be rotated again, and we'll be out of here early tomorrow morning, so take it with you because we're going to hand out all night combat gear and transceivers at the end."
Kazuya decided to rest when all kinds of weapons and equipment, tents and tents were summoned and placed in fortifications.
You're tired of all kinds of things at once today.
Shall I tell Lieutenant Ibuki to rest first?
Feeling tired, Kazuya told Lieutenant Ibuki to rest and go to bed.
But as soon as Kazuya starts sleeping, Lieutenant Ibuki wakes up Kazuya.
"... uh-huh. What's the matter, Lieutenant Ibuki, it's early in the morning, isn't it? Is something wrong?
Kazuya inquired Lieutenant Ibuki as he rubbed his eyes and fought the sleeper.
"I'm sorry I'm on vacation. He said he saw some kind of moving shadow in the woods as he watched outside the fort."
"What!? Say it quickly."
When Kazuya quickly cleared herself and got her gear and weapons on, she left the building and hurried to the place where the report came in.
"This way."
Kazuya whispered to the soldiers at the outpost when they reached the western barrier where they had received a report.
"What happened?
"Ha, there's an object moving in the woods over there"
My men told me. Kazuya put on her dark-eyed goggles and took a peek into the woods on the west side.
"Something's definitely moving... I don't see it clearly."
I looked in the woods using dark vision goggles, but I didn't know what the moving object was because of the distance.
Lieutenant Ibuki, prepare for battle.
"Copy that. I'll put you in combat position."
"Have you reported to Command?
"I've already made a report. We'll be ready for backup fire in ten minutes, just in case."
"You're moving fast, well done Lieutenant Ibuki"
"I'll give you my compliments. I'm delighted."
Upon finishing his interaction with Lieutenant Ibuki, Kazuya used a transceiver to give orders to a total of 80 men of one platoon plus two detachments in this fort.
"All battle placement!! I'll summon the materials, so close the front gate. And no shooting until you have an order!! Above"
"" "" Roger!!
Five minutes after Kazuya's order was given.
Since everyone has been informed that the blockade of the main entrance has been completed per battle placement, Kazuya has decided to launch a flare shell to explore the identity of the object in the woods.
"Fire."
A decade-long signal pistol was used at the same time as the order, and a total of eight illumination bullets were launched into the pitch-black night sky two times, east, west and north.
A flare shell drifting through the sky emits a blurry light and illuminates the area.
"Dude...... This is disgusting."
At the end of Kazuya's gaze, countless demons continued to appear from the woods to surround the fort.
"How many of them are there? I didn't run into one of the demons in my daytime reconnaissance... Which one of you came out boiling?
"I don't know, but the situation is very unpleasant right now."
The demons continued to increase in numbers even while Kazuya and Lieutenant Ibuki said that.
He's in Kobolt. Goblins, oaks, trolls.
All demons close to the fort are armed with sticks, rusty swords, and worn armor with holes.
"I'm already surrounded, like I'm running away from now..."
"Yes, the only way we can survive is to destroy our enemies."
That being said, this one has a total of 80 people, 60 platoons plus 20 detachments.
There are only about 8 M2 machine guns, 10 Type 12 mortars, 10 Type 89 heavy projectiles, and 5 Type 97 automatic guns that I put out just in case I was carrying the weapons and ammunition.
No matter how much backup shelling we have, can we destroy all the demons we have? I can't even request reinforcements until morning...
Wait, now that the battle hasn't started, we can summon weapons, right?
When Kazuya called the thought menu screen and tried to see if he could summon the weapon, the screen showed something unexpected.
[God's Trial - 1st]
Survive the demons attack!!
Total Enemy
17829 bodies
... this or the reason why a large number of demons come together.
I can't even summon him anymore. Damn!! It's not a different world trip of apologies for killing me by mistake when I intentionally let you kill Tripper or see this joke God's trials and doings......
No way, we're being ruined by God...
I didn't want Kazuya to know the idea was the right one.
"Ha... Lieutenant Ibuki. How many hours till morning?
"Approximately two hours."
"Right...... Telecommuter!! Request backup fire from Command and reinforcements."
"Ha, got it!!
A telecommuter who had followed Kazuya's orders and was holding back beside him began radio exchanges with the command.
That is the time.
As if waiting for the Kazuyas to be ready. As soon as the correspondence with the command was over, the demons began to roar and push at the fort in unison.
"Chi, you're here!! - Tell all!! Whatever will survive!!
"" "" Roger!!
Kazuya set his sights on Goblin, who was running the lead, and pulled the trigger as he set up StG 44 and blasted the soldiers over the transceiver as the demons suddenly approached with dotadota and noisy footsteps.
Thus opened the curtain of a nightmarish offensive battle for the Kazuyas.
