Chapter 19: Nothing to acknowledge
Even before sunrise, Ivan woke up naturally.
It was a luxurious bed in a very nice room, so he slept comfortably and woke up feeling good.
Of course, he slept well on the street too. He has sleeping skill for that. Still, waking up indoors, even on a luxurious bed, felt different.
Takrak, Cuk!
After washing his face lightly, take the equipment out and put them on one by one.
He wears hydra leather armor over a cotton shirt and a waterproof cloak outside.
After that, he hangs a long around his waist, and on the other side two throwing daggers and an axe. Bows and arrows on his back.
Ivan sighed only after securing all the equipment so that it did not rattle.
Whoo
Cotton, leather, metal. It was a bit frustrating as things with different textures wrapped around his body. But he felt familiar with them. When his weapons and armor were removed from his body, he felt even more anxious.
Ivan didnt know if that was a good change because he felt safe wearing equipments that kill people.
Whiiing.
When he finished getting ready and went outside, there was a cold wind. Even with the strong body, which has already exceeded the ordinary man for a long time, felt that way, so it seemed that the soldiers would have a hard time.
Slurp, slurp.
By the time Ivan reached the wall, rain fell from the sky. The rain water running down his spear was not very pleasant.
On the wall, Billy had already arrived and was looking further away. He greeted Ivan with his wide smile.
Hey, you are here?
How about their movements?
Last night, nothing happened. Orcs are not very bright at night, and they have the upper hand, so there is no reason to conduct a night siege.
Orcs encamped near the fortress and repeated regular invasions once every three or four days. Then, when the tension of the soldiers was relieved, they changed the cycle and attacked for two days in a row.
He said that the confrontation continued for a while, but recently the battle had quickly become rough. They have completely blocked human entry into the forest, so they have full strength here.
Tezan will continue to protect the forest. There arent that many sorcerers who can coordinate the enormous main power sprayed in the forest.
I heard that the head of the orc group that was aiming for the fortress right now was Valkrun. The 23rd son of Orc Lord Kartak.
A very energetic Kartak had many sons, some of whom were very good, but frankly, Ivan was the first to hear the name of Valkrun.
An existence that was not portrayed in the game. In the first place, hes either not that important guy, or hes already dead by the time the main story progresses.
Shaaa~
The rain is getting heavier. I want them to take a break at a time like this.
I heard a soldier muttering next to me.
Although he was wearing a thick cloak to block the rain, the soldiers clothes were already damp because the waterproofing material was not very good. A battle in the midst of this is a terrible thing.
Unfortunately, I dont think thats possible. We always fight only in damned situations.
Ivan, who was looking in the distance, shook his head.
Since you have already come all the way here, they must have started before the sun came up. Theyre terribly hardworking guys. With such diligence, they will make a living by farming, bastards.
As soon as Ivan finished speaking, the emergency bell rang urgently.
ding ding-!
All members! Prepare for battle!
Ready for battle!
The soldiers moved quickly, trying to hide the signs of fatigue. The longbowman took his seat on the wall, and the wizard began to concentrate.
Whoosh!
A bright light exploded from behind, and a warm energy passed through the fortress walls. The great blessings of the Battle Priests sanctuary fell on their bodies.
It was only a short time, but for a moment, a warm energy lingered, and courage and vitality rose in my body. The eyes of the tired soldiers regained strength and became sharp.
Suddenly, people gathered around Ivan. The strong men prepared to kill Valkrun were warming up.
Please wait once the battle begins. When the soldiers open the way, you can deal with him.
Everyone nodded at the commanders words, but some could not stay still and kept moving.
Woah!
The distance was close enough to check them properly. Then the group split up, and an orc warrior, larger than the others, appeared at the forefront.
Is that guy Valkrun?
Yeah. Hes a very vicious guy.
The commander made a stiff expression. In the meantime, he must have suffered a lot because of that guy.
Woooraaaa!
As the orcs roared again, Valkrun took one of his spears and took a stance. It looks like they are aiming here.
Are you going to throw it over there? How far is it, and with rains like this. That cant be
Someone muttered something like that and then closed their mouth. Because he really shot the spear.
Pssshhh!
bang!
The spear thrown by him flew in a parabolic shape and hit the middle of the fortress wall with a roar. Everyone was at a loss for words because it was shocking to see the rainwater being pushed away by the shock wave. For a performance that signaled the start of the battle, it was very splendid.
