The World of Masks

Jack is out of the cave. I felt confident that there was nothing more rough to walk on. His favorite dark knight's armor was given to Chloe, so his outfit was light.

I took a slow step and stood where the Dark Wizard ruled, where the plain overlooked the eye. I can see the plain at war. No, it wasn't a war anymore. It was a one-sided massacre. Most of the Allied advance has already fallen. It was a long shot, but with the Demon King's resurrection, the weary alliance could not stop the undead. But even in a desperate situation, the Allied forces have been relentlessly capturing the undead.

'As expected.'

Behind a nasty army of biting and sagging soldiers, the undead see an attempt to flee the battlefield.

'Yes, that would be the right choice.'

The battle is meaningless as long as Jack has the Demon King's power. There is no one in this realm who can stop Jack himself. Now they will return home, afraid of the Demon King's invasion as they did 50 years ago, and will cling to the wall of defense and be filled with pride. He'll still wait for Jack to crawl out, looking for an opportunity. To end up outside the realm like the old Demon King.

'I don't want to go out like the old Demon King, but · · · · · · · · · ·.'

But they can't know that. Even if they did, there is no other way for them to know.

Slowly, the battalion and the headquarters began to separate. In the previous days, the actions of the undead were literally written off. The undead seem to have caught wind of the base's escape, but they can't break through the death squad. There was a reason they were persistent and stretched, and it was because there were more of them than I thought. It seemed we had placed more lives to die for safe return. Sacrifice more lives to make sure life is saved. It sounded ironic, but the Allied forces were desperate enough to even think about it.

Jack looks at the squabbling coalition as if it were a marvel. The Union base, which is fleeing in a frenzy, cannot seem so pathetic.

'But we can't miss it.'

That one person's vitality is important. I had to devote more life to the altar and expand the area to draw it out. The altar could only extend the realm to human life.

However, the Allied Forces' withdrawal from who was in command was moving more smoothly than expected. There seems to be an excellent commander. The undead are being blocked thoroughly by the battalion in front of them. But Jack was not in a hurry.

'Hello.'

Looking over the horizon behind the Allied forces, Jack crookes his mouth cruelly.

* * *

"Hurry up and move!"

"Forget the late ones!"

"If we don't hurry, we'll just die here! You want to get yourself killed!"

The urgent voice echoes here and there. I'm going to die of exhaustion, but the bosses who put blood on their necks and complained about it had nothing to do with annoying soldiers. But nothing they said was wrong. Eventually, he forced his heavy footsteps to speed up.

Like a Straggler, the Allied forces, the Stragglers themselves, were so demoralized. And so were the wizards. I have spent nearly half my life in this battle. However, they couldn't feel better because they failed to give clear results and allowed the Demon King to resurrect. They said nothing and retreated as ordered. He was still a high-ranking soldier, so I was able to go comfortably by providing the horses I had secured in the earthquake.

"Hey, you."

Like all wizards, someone spoke to a wizard who was about to leave the battlefield quickly with a gloomy face. In this situation, the wizard frowns and shakes his head.

"What's going on?"

The opponent was a Shrine. Even wizards with high ranks are worthless. Moreover, the clothes I was wearing were not a shrine in a low position. The wizard replied with a deep grumbling.

"Have you not seen the traveler woman?"

By the looks of it, I knew there was a traveler in the Wizard's Watch. I thought you said you were a traveler who brought information about the Demon Prince here.

"I didn't see it."

In the wizard's answer, the priest, Toolsner sighed.

"Thank you."

I pulled the wheel and turned the other way.

'Where the hell are you?'

Toolsner turns his head.

He is not a person in this world, but one of the people who has given information about the Demon King. I couldn't let those mercenaries go on like this. However, the chances of survival are extremely slim since the male side went to the mountain side, which is the Demon King's stronghold, and the news is lost.

'We have to save at least one person.'

No matter how many travelers died in this world, they didn't necessarily die in their own world, but they had to take them with them when they retreated. That made me feel at ease. But she does not see whether it has risen into the sky or turned off to the ground. It seems to have disappeared during the chaos when the Allied forces marched toward the mountains. If so, there is less chance of survival. She was a typical wizard. Strong and weak access.

As the probability of her death increased, Toolsner's heart became increasingly painful.

'· · · · · · · · · · · · · It is not confirmed yet. I can't even afford it yet, so I'm just going to have to look a little further.'

It was a lie. I couldn't afford to be in this situation. A group of retreating soldiers stares at Toolsner as he walks among his troops. I was interrupted in short. But Toolsner began to wander around looking for Callie again, dealing with all kinds of blame.

It was time for me to turn my head around and look around, hurting my neck. His eyes see a shimmering figure running from afar.

What is it?

He frowned and narrowed his eyes to get a closer look at the figure. It wasn't one or two. As they run at a rapid pace, they begin to see more and more detail. Toolsner's complexion is pale.

Wooahhhhhhh!!!

The heads of the soldiers who were quickly retreating to the Creepy Monster suddenly return. I can see a rapidly approaching figure in their eyes. Hard skin, sharp horns, split eyes and creepy nails. Some were holding a wooden club like it had been bent from somewhere, others were wielding sword-looking bones coming out of their skin, and others were breathing fire or cold.

"It's a monster!!!!"

A soldier cries out in the plains. Chaos erupts among the Allied forces.

The rushing monsters weren't one or two. They were all running at full speed with murder in their eyes.

Khhhhhhhhh!!

I heard a creepy sound from the sky. A massive gangrene spreads out over the wings of a thin shell. Starting with the gangrene, various types of aerial monsters were also casting shadows on the ground.

"Stay calm! Stay calm!!"

The baron shouts, "Blow your throat out." However, his voice was so easily buried in the monster's monstrosity.

While I was retreating, I encountered a horde of monsters that could be an ambush. The Allied forces' mental collapse in a single moment.

"Ugh!"

"Help me!!"

No matter how well trained an elite may be, it was hard to hope for coolness in this situation. The Allied forces, which were well retreating under control, collapse at once. Making fun of the destination to save his own life. It was a moment when the sacrifices of the resistance stand still against the undead.

The monsters boasted of their enormous physical abilities and swiftly approached the Allied forces.

Qajik!

"Ahhhh!"

Phew!

"Knng!"

Ridiculous!

"Shhhhh!"

The slaughter has begun. Daewoo is a mess and low morale. The will to fight almost killed all the elite troops on the ground. Monsters in the North were stronger than the rest of the regular troops, and even stronger within the Demon King's realm was a disaster.

My arms and legs flew off and my intestines fell off. A fallen body and a falling neck are trampled on the monsters' giant feet. Like a shark that broke into a small group of fish, monsters, like a tiger that broke into a rabbit horde, tore and trampled the fleeing alliance to death.

"Damn it!"

The baron wails bitterly. Even the last attempt to bring the survivors back alive is doomed. I ran back and forth to calm the army somehow, but the chaos had already reached its limit. The Marquis knows. This army is already over.

"I can't help it."

He gritted his teeth, but the situation had already flowed out. I had to make a decision.

"Brainy, keep a few under control! Summon the wizards and the priests! We have to take them with us!"

Some of the remaining elite troops, the knights, the wizards, and the priests, had to live to the end. Despite the turmoil of the erl's command, those who somehow held their minds were busy moving.

The baron turns his head. The mountain stands alone in the plains and catches my attention. I sharpened my teeth again.

"Be sure to come back. That's why I'm gonna kill your son!"

He glances at the Demon King who created this scene, and the prince shouts out loud.
