Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 549

The sentiment that Siegfried has been feeling the most lately has been ‘sick of it’.

Even if he had dissatisfaction with the god who had beaten him to this world, his desire to seek and see the world did not disappear or fade. On the contrary, even when I look back on myself, it is surprisingly certain that that mind has continued until now.

The meal, which I started eating with the determination that it would be more serious than the South Korean army’s salted rice, was delicious enough to realize how serious the problem of corruption in the modern defense industry was. The battle with the Demon King’s army, which continues every day, is now familiar. Compared to the spring bed, it was disappointing in many ways, but the bed was also luxurious enough.

I don’t care if it’s such a trifle. All the problems were with the demon army’s bioweapon, which suddenly began to appear at some point.

Siegfried, who struck the bioweapon with his greatsword, took a quick breath and looked around.

The battle line was disrupted by a sudden surprise attack, but the shield soldiers were still strong, and the demon army and several living weapons rushing to push the defense line they were building were easily noticeable.

I saw it, so I had to stop it. Saint Tennea shouted from behind Siegfried, who corrected his posture and ran away.

“Zeke! Don’t go out without protection!”
“There’s still time!”

They were smaller and weaker than the monsters they first encountered when fighting Eldmia on the battlefield. They were far from the cliché of being stronger when they were smaller, but that didn’t make them any less of a threat.

Some spread plagues with blood, some unleash unknown magic while slashing my life force, and some are tricky because they have no distinctive features, but their intelligence is normal.

It wasn’t like making a promise and showing up, so I had to start with the low-end soldiers and clearly figure out how to deal with them, but of course it’s not as easy as it sounds. This was also the reason why the front line, which had been pushed so hard that it could be called a rapid advance, was fixed again.

that is still currently in progress. There are very few people who can minimize the damage of allies from their persistent interference and pressure.

And, to my great regret, Siegfried was one of those very few.

“Everybody get out of the way!”

Compared to the battlefield, which had almost become muddy due to the blood shed by both sides over the years, as we stepped forward on a floor that was as hard as concrete, the shield soldiers and troops blocking the front like a solid castle gate split left and right to open the way.

What comes into the open field of view are three objects classified as infectious. After that, the Demon King’s army was running like a wave while maintaining a certain distance. It was like using a unit made up of slaves or prisoners as arrowheads first. It was possible because the infected’s blood became toxic for only a moment.

Whether you kill quickly or slowly, the situation where damage occurs has been going on for weeks, so I have no choice but to be fed up.

It’s the Demon King’s army who turned them into such shit, so why are you taking out your anger on us?

However, the infestation only looks forward and rushes. Even if they were to cut them in two, it was obvious that their corpses and blood would inflict enormous damage on their allies.

So Siegfried was needed. Because he was a swordsman, magician, and elementalist.

“Sometimes try running the opposite way!”

Siegfried’s greatsword, loaded with negative emotions, flew at the infected, making a neat horizontal slash that was hard to follow with the naked eye.

-Quad deuk!

It wasn’t the kind of sound that a sword would make when it cut through a creature made of flesh and blood. It also meant that the bodies of the infected were different from those of normal creatures. However, Siegfried’s greatsword Nothung displayed power worthy of the reputation he had built up so far, cutting the three infected in one blow.

“Blow it to those bastards!”
[So that’s what… I think it’ll work this time!]

The wind spirit, who usually grumbled that he didn’t have the ability and only wanted a lot, showed a different reaction this time.

As always, the sight of Siegfried, whose words were just spoken words, flying towards the Demon King’s army running far away, with a strong wind raging and sweeping up even the blood on the corner, without a chance to be surprised, even the shield soldiers who were very nervous around Siegfried It was so surprising that it made my mouth open.

It was the same for the demon king army who couldn’t react properly to the sudden change, but they couldn’t do that. With the blood sprayed and flowed from the body of the infected, the front line of the Demon King’s army quickly became a mess.

It was a successful enough defense. Siegfried, who ran forward without missing a chance and looked at his allies colliding with the Demon King’s army, feeling extreme fatigue, stopped Nothung on the ground for a while and caught his breath.

Pushing in was good, but the wires were too spread out. Even though there was support from the Empire, the place they were stepping on now was the Demonic Territory. There were too many enemies everywhere.

At first, there were hopeful observations that it would be possible to slit the demon king’s head as it is, but now only rumors are coming out that it is best to quickly help the Demonic Church forces retreat and then retreat. Even though he said that he would push forward and give up the other land intact, Siegfried felt relieved at the command’s judgment.

The mere addition of those monsters changed the tide of battle. If the allies can reach the Devil’s Castle now, it must be a trap, not because of their abilities.

“Hero! This is an order to return to the command post!”

While he was recovering his strength while thinking about that, the one who approached Siegfried and found him was an Imperial Knight who had been selected as his escort. Siegfried, who belatedly sensed how far he had separated himself from the party to catch the monsters, immediately tilted his head and asked back.

“Return? In this situation?”

The battle isn’t over yet. Strictly speaking, this is just the beginning. Siegfried, who recalled whether he had fallen asleep during the briefing this morning, recalled that it had been two days ago and looked at him demanding an explanation.

“I haven’t heard a detailed explanation either. However, the command has asked me to return as soon as possible, as the operation is ready.”

It was awkward at first, but because they had been together on the front line for quite a while, they understood roughly what they were thinking just by looking at their faces, and it was only after the knight quickly added an explanation that Siegfried moved.

“If you look at the cancer, this…”
“Yes. It smells like a covert operation.”

Itsel did not have such a case, but this was the case with operations led by the Empire. Siegfried grunted inwardly that he must be holding the baton because he was overly obsessed with the proverb that if anyone wants to deceive the enemy, they must deceive their friends as well.

For a while, Siegfried, who arrived at the command post, was slightly surprised to see the passengers who had arrived in advance.

“Asillie? What are you doing here?”

After Eldmia embarked on an operation to join the Church, Asilie, who had only received requests to support her allies from the rear under the unanimous agreement of both the Empire and Isthel, was sitting at the command post holding Laika.

Siegfried rolled his eyes at the unexpected situation, confirmed that Eselua was sitting calmly, and chose to shut up and sit together.

If Eselua knew and he didn’t, it was because it was less complicated and could be solved quickly. Deep down in his heart, he truly believed in Siegfried, so there was no hesitation in his actions.

Thanks to this, the commander, who had opened his mouth to explain the situation to him even briefly, had to be taken aback by the sight of Siegfried suddenly regaining his composure and sitting down.

Did you guess the situation and sit down? Or did he just sit there with the feeling that something would work out because his woman is calm without knowing anything…?

“…Well, the hero must have guessed to some extent, but the reason I gathered during the battle like this is to secretly go into the next operation.”

It was said that he would explain everything on his own, so Siegfried nodded without saying anything, and the commander, slightly relieved at this, took out a cube-shaped piece of iron from his chest and put it on the table, continuing his conversation.

“I’ll briefly tell you. Asilie, including the warriors and party people, and the Empire and Kingdom’s combined reinforcements will be sent to Levien. You must break through the Demonic Territory with the Margrave of Levien and his troops.”

The identity of the cube that those sitting at the command post saw once was a simple gate, a symbol of the Empire’s magic engineering.

“Isn’t Levien still in a hurry to block the demons’ offensive?”
“The atmosphere within the Demonic Territory has changed drastically, so it’s not like that anymore.”

As the explanation continued, the commander removed the objects on the map on the table one by one.

“Thanks to the fact that only the Church’s army 2, who left Epaga Sierra, punished River and appeared in front of Raitor without a sound and drove out the Demon King’s supporters, the Demons near Levien, who are far from the main front, were caught. It’s tearing into quarter fever.”

Then, the troops of the Demon King’s army and nearby demons, who were densely gathered around Levien, fell out one by one and changed their color, drawing a completely different aspect.

“It is thanks to the church’s resistance and close to counterattack.”

The meaning of the Demon King’s defense line, which was incomparably thinner than before, was clear.
