However, things took a sharp turn.
It was early in the morning, before dawn.
“Oniichan, Shun-oniichan. Something is wrong outside!”
“Hn? Outside?”
Shiro and Ao woke me up by shaking me in my sleeping bag. Apparently, there was something wrong outside the village.
Half-asleep, I used exploration magic, but I woke up at once when I saw the result.
“This is bad! There are a lot of goblins coming to the village!”
“““What!”””
“The goblins are swarming in! Over five hundred of them!”
With my shout, the soldiers who were guarding outside rushed in. Everyone hurriedly got ready and walks out of the building.
“““Gisha!”””
Suddenly, goblins appeared not only outside the village, but also inside the village.
We immediately defeated the goblins that appeared inside the village and headed towards the fence. Fortunately, the fence is not broken, but injured soldiers were lying on the ground.
“We’ll push back the front line. Send the fallen soldiers back and treat them.”
“Yes!”
According to the instructions of Guild Master, we split into front and rear guards and began responding.
“Eiii!”
“““Gugaa!”””
Me and Ao madly casted spells to make a path.
“Oryaaaa!”
“Get out of the way, get out of the way!”
The vanguards quickly entered the space created and defeats the goblins.
“I’ve brought the injured person.”
“Thank you, Shiro-chan. I’ll treat him right away.”
Shiro then brings in the wounded soldier and Sue and the other healers treats them immediately.
Then, a person who was not supposed to be here was eventually brought in by Shiro.
“Hey, why are you here?”
“Guh-ghuk-……”
“No, he is in no condition to talk.”
Yes, he is the third son of Count of Bakuak.
He was not supposed to be here. He is now trembling and cowering. Even when I talk to him, he just shakes his head and can’t have a proper conversation. And the fancy magician woman who is supposed to be with him all the time was not with him.
“When he heard about the goblins from somewhere, he was probably hoping to make a name for himself by joining in the subjugation team, so he came here. Let’s focus on what’s in front of us first!”
Since we couldn’t really count on him as a fighting force anyway, we left Count Bakuak’s third son, who was trembling all over, under the watch of the recovered soldiers.
“Damn it! I don’t think their number is decreasing!”
“Not only is there a Goblin Lord, but there are also Goblin Knights!”
“Don’t break the formation! We just have to deal with it as it is.”
Fortunately, the goblins are attacking from one place, so we don’t have to disperse our forces. There are also some high-ranking goblin species in the mix, but the basic way to defeat them remains the same.
“Gugaa!”
“Eii!”
“Thank you, little girl.”
Shiro and Ao use magic barriers to block the magic that is released at the soldiers and adventurers on the front lines. The magic barrier between the two of them is hard, so it won’t be easy to break.
“Yes, this should work!”
“Thank goodness. Thankfully we have excellent rearguards. It looks like we can handle it with this force.”
Of course, the rearguards are also busy treating the injured.
However, Sue and the other healers are getting better, so they treat them immediately and the injured returned to the front line after they recovered.
“I’m going to cast a spell at the goblins in the rear.”
“Shun, do it!”
I stand between the front and rear guards and launch a magic attack with the magic soldiers who came with me. Perhaps because of everyone’s efforts, the goblins were greatly reduced in number after an hour.
Just when I thought I could push through, a real hit appeared.
