Thump-!
The troll’s head dropped on the floor and one leg severed by Han-bit.
The guy unable to maintain its form collapsed as is.
“The gold bracelet wasn’t a fake.”
Jin-uk who shook off the blood threw words bluntly.
It was the tone when one had no choice but to acknowledge an opponent.
Tap-
He who landed lightly on the floor turned his gaze to the surroundings.
“So, what’s this? Why did monsters swarm in hordes?”
“It means the monster abnormality has surfaced. Weren’t there omens?”
“Where are there such omens? Even searching through all of Ifrit’s history there wouldn’t be any.”
Jin-uk frowning his impression as if annoyed.
His words were not entirely wrong.
Because it would have certainly been difficult to predict the wave with ordinary investigation.
However, that guy is a human who stands idly by watching the second wave even after going through this incident.
Should he just say his head is a bit bad.
“Anyway I will take care of the rest, so outsider step out. I’ll take care of your reward up to now.”
“I don’t think you should do that?”
“What? Trusting only your bracelet and again…….”
Thump-!
Instantly, a huge roaring sound rang from behind Jin-uk.
In his gaze swiftly turning his body, there was the carcass of the troll he just knocked down.
“…What is that?”
Jin-uk doubted his eyes.
Because the guy who lost its head was plunging both its fists into the city wall.
On that floor, the fainted soldier was collapsed limply.
Thump-!
Kaboong-!
“Such a crazy bastard!”
Jin-uk kicking off quickly approached the guy.
Slash-!
Both arms of the troll severed by swinging the sword.
However, the guy continued to pour attacks onto the city wall endlessly even in that state.
Ta-dat-!
Jin-uk dragging the soldier out quickly returned to his spot.
Bang-!
Kaboong-!
Even while doing so, shocks continuously applied to the city wall.
Coincidentally, at that location, there was a crack left by the soldier crashing.
Furthermore.
Rumble-!
Even other trolls maintaining the rampage state started swarming in.
“Tsk.”
Jin-uk clicking his tongue immediately made a judgment.
What’s possible right now is fast subjugation.
That was the only one.
Swish-!
Slash-!
Jin-uk kicking off quickly severed the guys’ heads and limbs.
However, the situation did not improve.
He who instinctively felt crisis let out a shout.
“Mages! All stick to this side!”
“Yes? There are still zones we have to clear!”
“Shut up and come! We have to burn them or do whatever!”
Instructions poured out while swinging the sword.
Han-bit who was similarly proceeding with subjugation with his sword came to a halt.
That moment.
Crck-
From the city wall, a sound that shouldn’t be heard came.
“This sh*t…….”
Jin-uk covered in monster blood also sensed the abnormality.
Crack-
Crck-
The glass city wall is a structure joined together using special materials and technology.
A crack formed like that was enough to bring down at least one zone.
Crack-!
The subsequent sound strongly rang the ears.
And when the trolls attached to the wall poured out their offensive once more.
Crash-!
Finally, one axis of the city wall shattered and collapsed.
“Br, broken!”
“Get out of there!”
The flustered subjugation squad quickly got away from the city wall.
Countless pieces of shattered glass pouring down was right after that.
Kwaaah-!
The completely collapsed city wall piled up like a hill.
The crushed glass pieces were merely stepping stones.
“Jin-uk Hyung-nim! How do we do this…….”
The flustered subjugation squad turned their gazes to the Guild Master.
However, the one most shocked was the person himself.
“Everyone step out.”
Han-bit who grabbed a good timing stepped forward.
The blue-white sword held in his postured hand.
A gust imbued with flames was fiercely wiping out over there.
Ta-dat-!
Han-bit kicking off jumped high.
If he thrusts from the ground, it will affect even the inside of the pierced city wall.
The best angle is…….
‘Now.’
Swoosh-!
Han-bit who caught the angle in the air swung his sword as is.
A huge blade of wind flying along that trajectory.
Thanks to gathering for a long time, the power was considerable.
Slash-!
Kwaaah-!
The monsters taking the sword dead on were cleaved, crushed, and simultaneously reached death.
A single attack.
It was the number of times necessary to clean up all the guys moving toward the city wall’s gap.
– Crazy. Lol
– Is this right?
– He’s the same level as me;
– From the monsters’ standpoint it’d be f*cking absurd.
[Goblin has sponsored 1,000 won.]
[Developer. A balance patch is urgent.]
“Wh, what is that?”
“What did he do?”
“He swung a sword, and it becomes like that?”
The subjugation squad witnessing the annihilation was astonished with their jaws dropped.
The stiffened Jin-uk was also looking with his eyes wide open.
Fwoosh-!
The blazing flames were still hot.
Han-bit landing on the ground kicked off toward a place without the subjugation squad.
Fwoosh-!
The hugely bloomed flames swept away a side of monsters entirely.
Han-bit lightly shaking off his sword looked at the subjugation squad fallen into shock and spoke.
“What are you doing? You have to quickly clear up the rest too.”
***
The continued wave sweep ended without difficulty.
It was because the other subjugation squads including Jin-uk who snapped back to his senses were perfectly active.
It was also thanks to the enhancer effect granted to the trolls wearing off.
Slash-!
Jin-uk cleaving the final goblin with his sword did not move from his spot.
The sword drooping towards the floor was showing his sentiment.
‘It collapsed cleanly.’
Right after the situation was sorted, everyone’s gaze directed towards the collapsed city wall.
The crisis of Ifrit that never visited even once.
Since even the protective barrier firmly believed to be safe was pierced for the first time, it was a natural reaction as well.
‘Well, taking the first step went well.’
Han-bit’s objective is the granting of a certain sense of crisis.
And that was inflicting damage to the city enough to give an unprecedented shock.
The result of setting the city wall as a target appeared satisfyingly like this.
“Hey!”
At that time, a voice full of anger echoed from afar.
Turning his head, Jin-uk approaching puffing could be seen.
“Why?”
“You know something right? Spit it out straight!”
The appearance of letting out evil while drooping his sword was full of anxiety.
Actually, pushing logic like that isn’t his true feelings.
Right now he just wants to blame someone.
‘His skills are definite though.’
Still 20-year-old Jin-uk’s strength and expected growth are definite.
However, perhaps because his talent was too good, he grew up as an arrogant human.
The fortunate point is that unlike Mayor Firnen, his younger brother is a person with room for rehabilitation.
To do that, planting failures, limits, and helpless reality into his head was necessary.
“What do I know? I suffered from monsters too.”
“Don’t make me laugh! But you moved so calmly? For a D-rank adventurer?”
As if investigating him secretly, Jin-uk brought up his adventurer rank.
However, it was an incorrect standard for Han-bit who had little activity as an adventurer.
“You shouldn’t judge looking at only such a rank. The gold bracelet can’t be ordinary right?”
“You probably played some political maneuver somewhere! I don’t know who you have backing you, but it won’t work!”
“If you have time to throw a tantrum, agonize over what you will do about the next wave. Because it might be worse than this time.”
“What? Such a ridiculous story…….”
“What happened here?”
Just when the argument was about to prolong.
From the direction of the pierced city wall, a voice was heard.
“…Older Sister.”
Jin-uk who turned his gaze discovered Mayor Firnen’s figure.
It didn’t take long for his head to drop powerlessly.
Tsk-
Firnen letting out a sigh stepped outside the city wall looking displeased.
The assistants following behind her were looking around the surroundings with their eyes wide open.
“I have heard, but it seems you helped with this ambush. As the Mayor I will relay my gratitude.”
Stopping in front of Han-bit, Firnen fixed her collar and spoke.
It was a polite greeting conveyed exactly as much as necessary.
“It was a coincidence. I happened to be sharing a conversation at the dwarf village.”
“…The village state doesn’t look like it would be intact, did everyone die?”
“There will be no hindrance to their lives. Although rebuilding the village will be difficult.”
“I see.”
A reaction spat out without a bit of emotion.
An attitude exactly like dealing with truly annoying baggage.
Actually, she didn’t throw a single glance towards the north where the dwarf village is.
“More than that, I would like to hear the situation in detail. How did the city wall come to collapse?”
“…I will tell you.”
At his older sister’s sharp gaze, Jin-uk shrunk and opened his mouth.
Even if his words were somewhat slow, the situation earlier was delivered as is.
“A troll? You are saying a mere thing like that broke the city wall?”
“It isn’t an ordinary troll! It was more persistent and stronger than undead monsters!”
“A troll is a troll. That you, the Guild Master, struggled against monsters is disappointing.”
“…I am sorry.”
A conversation too barren to be family.
Pure hierarchy was felt.
“Then the first discoverer is Black Dragon, you?”
“That’s right. For a discovery, they popped out from the entire forest all at once though.”
“…I see.”
Nodding her head, she turned her gaze back to the city wall.
Han-bit watching that appearance slyly brought up words.
“An attack in the same form as earlier can appear any number of times. Wouldn’t it be better to reinforce the city wall properly?”
“I thank you for the proposal, but I and the experts know Ifrit best. We won’t be hit by the same method.”
The eyes of Firnen answering with a faint smile were not smiling at all.
It was a warning for a foreigner not to cross the line.
“Jin-uk.”
Calling her younger brother’s name, she gave some instructions.
Even without hearing it, he knew the contents well.
‘Would you come out saying you’d search.’
What filled Firnen’s head was the monster abnormality around Ifrit.
That led to the conclusion that she had to cut out the root to solve it.
It seems like a natural flow, but what induces the wave wasn’t entirely natural selection.
“Have you finished talking?”
Han-bit briefly waiting for their conversation to end slyly approached and initiated.
Firnen trimming her expression had become a businesslike attitude again.
“The necessary stories are finished. Ah, come to think of it I should tell you about the reward.”
“Can I replace that reward with a proposal?”
“A… proposal?”
She asked back slightly narrowing her eyes.
It’s an oddly unpleasant feeling mixed with wariness and search.
“That city wall, you plan to fix it again right?”
“Of course. Even if difficult right now, reinforcement will be possible.”
Firnen nodded her head saying it was natural.
Han-bit who saw that appearance immediately connected his planned words.
“Then how about entrusting that repair to the dwarves?”
