Evolution of Slime to Peak

Chapter 22 Death

Swoosh!

"Arg!"

"What was that?!"

"Arg!"

"Arg!"

Screams of people echoed in the forest that ran toward the Arashi village. In the village, a huge piece of clothing was tied on the two sides in a long wood.

On the clothing, many stones with spikes on them were put. Stretching the clothe, the soldiers let go of the clothing.

Swoosh!

The stones with spikes on them were flung at the enemies. The spiky part pierced their skin and hit their bone. The stone's hit someone eye killing them instantly while some hit their outer body injuring them.

In just some minutes, blood covered the soil.

The people stopped instantly and hid in the tree for covering. The commander of these soldiers ordered them not to act rashly.

While they could move forward with causalities, they were still far. If many of their troops got injured, they will lose to the soldiers of Arashi village.

The soldiers that hid in the trees didn't notice the shadows flashing by them.

Sssh!

A stone fired at one soldier pierced his flesh and stuck on his bone. The shape of the stone was copied from a bullet with its end being too pointy and sharp.

"AAArrg!"

The shadows aimed their bullet at the enemies, mostly at their eyes. A hit and a kill.

Several causalities of Arashi village were zero, while the casualties of the enemy crossed 100.

"Who is it?!"

The commander, a dog man with a buffed body shouted. His aura looked domineering.

Clang!

"Wha-"

The shadows became stunned as they saw the commander blocking the stones with his sword. Many of the shadows fired the stones repeatedly but got blocked by his sword.

On the other side, another commander ordered the archer to fire the arrow where the stone comes from.

The archer tried but the trained shadows, powered by Ren's name felt the arrows and dodged them skillfully.

After ten minutes, the causalities of enemies crossed 200. The four commanders didn't want to get more casualties before they even infiltrate the village.

"Let's all rush, either we die or kill them!"

The commander leads the soldiers in front, repeatedly the stones shooter at the soldiers. Some were injured, some died but including the commander, some survived.

As they reached halfway, screams of soldiers again echoed.

"AAarrrg!"

"Help!!"

The land crumbled and a pit formed. As the land crumbled, it shallower 10 soldiers. Twenty of these pits were formed, and more than 200 soldiers fell.

But as they fell, only a scream came out. When the enemies' soldiers looked at the pit, their bodies trembled.

They felt fear imprinted on their bone.

In the pit, huge spears of wood stood.

Soldiers that fell got pierced by this spear, and the end of the spear came out from their stomachs.

They died instantly falling.

"We will reach in some moment! Just endure!!"

The commander shouted and the frozen soldiers somehow ran. Their face darkened with fear.

The soldiers nearly reached the front of the Arashi village. The soldiers of Arashi village looked at the enemy.

Before a large number of enemies surrounded their village, but now, their numbers were nearly half.

But that doesn't mean they won't have reinforcement. Forget about reinforcement, they still have nearly 200 soldiers that will surely take down 100 of Arashi's soldiers.

"Aaaaa!"

The soldiers screamed and charged forward raising their swords.

"Let's go!"

Arash's commander shouted raising his sword in the sky and marching forward

Clang!

The sound of a sword colliding with another reverberated.

"Arg!"

Some got stabbed, some got sliced, but both Arash's and the enemy's soldiers got injured and dead.

The war that started between tribes became a bloodbath of soldiers dying and crying. Injured soldiers wailed at the wound they got hurt like hell.

Some couldn't bear the pain and decided to end their life, while some fell unconscious.

The war just began for like 10 minutes and hundreds of soldiers lay on the ground either dead or injured.

The tragedy not only struck the enemy's soldier, but 50 of the Arashi's villagers were dead too.

The commander faced the enemy commander and they fought at their pace.

The elders also joined the battle, but they only guarded the entrance. They are needed if something unexpected like a sneak attack were to happen. They can't just use all their manpower in defeating the soldier, can they?

Ren had thought of hundreds of risks that he made a solution for. Sneak attack, Unexpected reinforcement, forces from other races, monsters...

So for a solution to these problems, he decided to put elders and Nezumi including him less tired. So, they can face any enemy.

Ren alone can fend off hundreds of enemies alone but he doesn't want to waste his time doing so. The elders alone can deal with 50 to 60 normal soldiers, and Nezumi can sneak attack many soldiers.

So they are the trump card.

"I will kill you!"

The enemy commander shouted, and swung his sword. Arashi's commander blocked that attack and dropped his sword.

The sudden falling of the sword was unexpected as the enemy's commander lowered his body as his weight was put on the sword.

Taking this chance, the Arashi's commander grabbed his hand and put another arm around his neck strangling him.

The enemy's commander struggled, he tried his hard to move his sword, but Arashi's commander put more force.

He put more strength on his grip. The enemy's commander tried to resist, but in the end, a spit came out of his mouth and he fell lifelessly to the ground.

"Whew!"

He swiped his hand cleaning off the sweat from his head.
