Trinitas Mundus

The hour dates back to the late evening of December 19th.

The Demon Army, lurking about thirty km east of Periclitle, had a long waiting time.

The troubles between the friendly armies were endless, and with the ability of Orvo Kronvar, the commander, they could not contain it completely.

Orvo was bitter about this situation, but as per the inter-tribal arrangement, he was going to secure the Son of the Moon or wait until the dawn of the year.

There arrives the Winged Demon, a messenger from Varma Niska of the Moon Demon Nation. Wingman gives him Varma's letter.

Orvo immediately read the letter and was surprised that the overwhelmingly disadvantaged enemy was plotting something.

(The enemy doesn't seem to be aware of this battle force. With all this war power difference, our advantage is unshakeable with a few measures... but Varma puts this magician named Arklight in more danger than he needs. If you are indeed a "white magician” in the report of Balthazar - the Great Ghost manipulator (Tamer) who attacked the eastern part of the Kingdom of Lax, Balthazar Owomoela - it is dangerous, but you cannot be someone who overshadows this difference in power...)

Still, as Varma warned, Orvo decided to issue a scourge in order to identify the enemy's ploy.

I would have liked to get it out of my own tribe, the Great Ghost tribe, but that giant is not for scourge. For this reason, he decided to leave his scouts to the little ghost tribe, who excelled in agility and covert moves.

He visited the camp of the Little Ghost tribe and asked their chief, Shefki Sommeryoki, to scold him.

Shefki is small, about a hundred and fifty cm tall, like a ghost tribe, and inherits the appearance of a goblin with thin arms and slightly protruding bellies. But the Little Ghost tribe is more agile than you can imagine from its shape, and specializes in covert actions such as scouts.

Among them, Shefki was a magical delicacy.

He was a rare, sedentary and sober character among the belligerent ghost tribes, fearing a medium ghost outburst, just like Orvo. For this reason, Orvo and I were in alliance and staff beyond the tribe.

Orvo sat in front of Shefki - still taller than the little ghost tribe that stood - and gave Shefki Varma's letter.

"I just got word from Varma that the enemy is setting some kind of trap. We can't even use the Wingman to find it."

To Orvo's words Shefki opens her eyes and receives a letter. And when you check the contents,

"Well, you can't even find it using the Wing Demon... you mean you can find it on us?

Orvo nodded small and just said "please".

Shefki immediately assembled key members of the tribe,

"We're going to scout. Number is twenty. I'll take command."

Orvo peels his eyes at the words.

"I don't care if you go. Why don't we leave it to the others?

to his words. Shefki shook his neck to the side,

"We have to check the magic team. I have to go. Besides, is there a magician in command that Varma fears? Then, if I don't take the elite, it won't be bright."

Orvo said he still said something, but I respect Shefki's judgment.

"Okay. But don't push it."

Shefki nodded small and immediately began to prepare to leave.

And he took twenty little ghost tribes and disappeared into the woods at night.

The night dawns and we welcome the morning of December 20th. Shefki and his men were about five kilometers east of Periclitle.

Pinch a small pause and try to advance through the woods, but notice the sentinel line of the adventurers of Periclitle.

(You're scouting harder than I thought. It's also time lagged and a bunch of scouts patrol the same position. Since there are only five or six scouts, it is not difficult to destroy them, but if you destroy your enemies poorly, you will not be hindered by night reconnaissance. Wait around here for the night...)

The scouts of the Little Ghosts decided to wait for the night on the spot.

There was a book of the night, and when the area was surrounded by darkness, the adventurers' scouts were invisible.

To confirm the magic formation outside the city, Shefki left two of his men for contact and immediately began moving.

Then, when he arrived at the meadow around the city, he further bowed his low back and slowly approached the city.

Around that time, Luke's Beastman Squad, guarding the perimeter of the city, had spotted an approaching scout squad of little ghosts.

The chief Uno thought it was possible for the six of us to miss the enemy and decided to put Ray in touch. Ray had just finished his discussions with Randall and joined Ashley.

Uno knelt one knee before them,

"An enemy scout-like unit is closing in secretly. The number is roughly twenty. From the movement, I'm guessing you're the elite little ghost."

Ray nodded satisfactorily because it was unfolding as expected,

"We're on our way, too. If you illuminate with the magic of the flares you used before, me and Ashley will also be at war. Do you think the three of us and Mr. Uno can defeat each other?

Uno nods without hesitation and replies, "I think Master Arklight's magic is enough".

The Rays quickly headed to the east gate and told the gatekeeper what was going on and went outside the city.

The darkness had already reigned entirely, and the pine lights of the figurines only slightly illuminated the meadows.

"Mr. Uno, where are the enemies?

"I was about a kilometer away when I saw him," Uno asked, pointing in the northeast direction.

The little ghost tribe Shefki was slowly approaching the city.

When we cut 200 m to the city, the east gate suddenly opened.

(regular patrol)? The number of people is… four. I'd like to make you think we haven't noticed the trap, but if we do, we have to dispose of it...)

Shefki told his men about it and began to move even more carefully.

The patrols came toward them, guarding their surroundings using the magic props of the lights.

One of the enemies fired magic into the sky when Shefki gave instructions to his men to stop moving.

The magic rises to the sky at a slow speed, like the magic of fire.

(What? You unleashed magic on the sky... what do you mean...)

When Shefki was wondering, that ball of light suddenly emitted a dazzling light, this time slowly descending.

The Shefkies lost sight for a moment because they saw a flare shell.

(Damn it! I noticed this way! Eye crushing magic...)

Five beasts attacked him as he tried to give orders to his men.

Shefki shouted, not fit for her body, "It's an enemy attack! Stand back while you respond!" He was giving orders.

After unleashing the magic of the illumination bullet, Ray found himself an enemy who had inadvertently risen.

"Is that Goblin? No, is that the little ghost tribe?

He can't hide his surprise at how similar he looks to Goblin, but he immediately runs out with a spear.

Behind us are also Ashley and Stella, and the head of the Beast Troop, Uno and his two men, run forward and sideways as if to protect the Rays.

Ray's eyes also saw five beasts slaughtering each other with a dozen little ghost tribes.

Several little ghost tribes rise and fall, but the enemy retreats with the beasts in their possession.

The illumination bullets raised in the meantime slowly weaken the light and gradually darkness dominates the meadow. Ray cast the illumination bullet spell again,

"God of light (Lucidus), who commands all the light of the world. Give me the power to shine. I will not give you the power of my life. Full, light! Illuminating Flare of Lighting!

The ball of light slowly rises through the disappearing light, and once again the dazzling light beats the darkness.

The little ghosts were blinded by the light for a moment, creating a gap.

In the meantime, the Beasts were slaughtering and laying down more little ghosts and circling behind their enemies.

There were already only six men left around Shefki, and he thought this was his place of death.

(Terribly army people. I noticed it from the beginning. You mean we've been manipulated into enemy traps... but is this the magic of that (...) white sorcerer... it involves holding him as a samurai when he just gets hit...)

He stepped back behind his men and started casting spells.

"Lord of darkness, our God. Scared my soul, I seek the power of darkness. I will not give my life to you. Fear my enemies of darkness. Darkness of Fear (Fear)"

From Shefki's right hand, a few strips of black laser light emit around him.

The beasts felt danger in its black light and evaded aggressively, but unluckily one of Uno's men, a black light, plundered Quattro.

Quattro stopped moving like a powered down machine and stood up on the spot.

Shefki's men, seen as a good opportunity, poke the dagger into the belly of an indefensible quattro. Quattro fell, holding a dagger in his belly, without screaming.

With the nearby beasts lying down, Shefki considered it a good opportunity to escape and immediately told his men, "Escape! Follow me! ordered."

Six men alive obeyed his words and tried to follow after Shefki.

Ray saw one of the beasts - he didn't know his name - stabbed. And when I saw the enemy trying to escape into that gap, he forgot me in anger and cast a spell of a crossbow of light.

"God of light (Lucidus), who commands all the light of the world. Consolidate the holy power of your family, the Spirit of Light, and give me the glowing arrow. I will not give you the power of my life. Pierce my enemies! Light Crossbow Multiple Shining Bolt

From his left hand, arrows of light pop up one after the other. The number flew to seven and toward the Little Ghost tribe about fifty meters away.

One of the little ghost tribes looked back and said, "It's an arrow of light! scream."

In that word, Commander Shefki said, "Avoid them all!" and commanded them to lay down simultaneously on the spot. But Ray's arrows of emitted light modify their orbit toward the fallen enemy, and each of the seven arrows of light pierces another enemy.

In the meantime, four beasts, sealed in motion by Shefki's magic, were catching up with their enemies. They received Ray's arrow of light and stabbed a stop at the beating enemies of

"Don't kill them all! Keep alive, especially enemies who unleashed magic!

Four Beastmen move into Ray's words.

He was attacking to pierce the sword, but he turned it into a beating down motion with a flat sword.

Ray does not turn to the enemy, but crouches beside the stabbed quattro. Quattro's face was stained earthy, around a dagger pierced through a gap in leather armor, stained red with blood. His breath gradually becomes shallow and weak.

Uno standing behind Ray said, "It's already too late. I'll take care of this place," he said, trying to poke his right-hand sword at Quattro in order to euthanize him.

Ray controls it with his right hand and pulls through the dagger stabbed in Quattro's belly all at once. Then he put his left hand on it and cast a healing magic spell.

"A great tree god (Albor) who made the woods. Heal the wounds of his Ka by the power of the Spirit who nourishes life. I don't give my life for the price. Healing Power (Heel)"

Ray's magic blocks Quattro's belly wound.

further decided to hang the healing magic of the water attribute,

"The Great Source of Life, God of Water (Fonce). Heal his wounds with the power of the purifying Spirit. I don't give my life for the price. Healing Power (Heel)"

Two spells gradually align Quattro's shallow breath.

"Maybe you'll be okay, but rest for a few days"

He was a uno who usually did not change his expression, but was surprised that Ray hung an advanced healing magic on the slave soldiers of the Beast, slightly opening his eyes. At Luke's, they were seen as disposable tools, because, whatever the simple scratches, the seriously injured were often disposed of on the spot.

"I can't thank you enough for the excessive treatment. But this person is Master Arklight's hands and feet. If the wound is healing, I will return you to duty immediately."

Ray shook his head sideways,

"At least let him rest until the day after tomorrow. If you're not convinced, be convinced by my orders."

Uno says, "I understand," and drips his head deeply.

While Ray was treating Quattro, Ashley approached the scouts of the Little Ghost clan. The four beasts had captured three little ghost tribes. One of them was the one who unleashed the magic and was severely monkey hung so that he could not cast a spell.

Ashley said, "Any sign of escape?," one of the beasts answers disciplinarily on one knee, "No.

When she nodded at it, she ordered "perimeter vigilance" and looked down at the little ghost clan she had captured.

(It does resemble goblins, but it's not as ugly as they are. Yes, it's completely different where I feel intelligence... but when even the Little Ghost Clan uses dark attribute magic, it's pretty nasty...)

And while I was on perimeter alert, I was wondering if this was all the scouts.

(If I order scouts near enemy strongholds, at least divide them into two or more hands. Or you should have them monitor you somewhere to let you know if the reconnaissance is successful or not)

That's what she thinks, Ray, who finished treating Quattro, has rendezvous. He stood beside Ashley and said, "Is this all the scouts have?," he asked.

"Oh, that's all those who came near the trap. But there must be other enemies lurking. I ordered them to be vigilant, perhaps already fleeing into the back of the woods"

Ray couldn't understand what she was saying and when she asked about it, Ashley told her thoughts.

"Perhaps there was a separate task force or a force to confirm the success or failure of the reconnaissance. There could have been a separate unit headed elsewhere."

"Are you saying that they were?

Ashley shakes her head small and sideways at Ray's inquiry.

"It's possible, but there's probably no separate task force. If there was, there would have been a small team to confirm the success or failure of the reconnaissance..."

Ashley says it would be reasonable to confirm in a dispersed manner if it were a normal scourge, but if he hears information that the Wingman has been defeated, he will gather as much strength as he can.

Ray nodded at it,

"You sure do. Maybe he tried to raise his tribe's status within the Demon clan by defeating us who killed the Wingman..."

He thought:

The collaboration between the demons in the eastern part of the Kingdom of Lax was very poor. Rays Demon Crusaders would have been wiped out in less than a day if the Middle-Ghost tribe had support from other Demons even in Millis Valley. I mean, I wouldn't even go with distrust among demons, but I was wondering if there was something like a power struggle between tribes.

And isn't that structure the same for this Periclitle? I was wondering if we thought that if our own little ghost tribe defeated a strong enemy like the Moon Demon losing its main force, it would be conducive to subsequent inter-tribal fighting.

"... I never heard the Kids say they use magic, but I think talent like using dark attribute magic should be valuable. So I think this scout is more than likely an elite force."

Ashley nods at Ray's words.

"It did make me feel that the movement was a rehearsal" who ". Especially when it comes to the immediate obedience to orders, you might say it's elite. Well, this time it was bad for him."

After enough, the Beast Troops that went to check the perimeter returned, but there was no shadow of the enemy in the meadow.

Ray orders Uno to remain vigilant.

"I'm sorry about your tiredness, but please keep your guard up. If you need anything, get in touch with me immediately. I'm at Alliance headquarters for the time being."

Uno agreed on one knee with "Your Will," and everyone, including the injured Quattro, was drooling over his head.

Ray, Ashley and Stella took a tightly tied up little ghost clan with ropes and headed to the east gate.
