weird.

At some point, it felt like the enemies’ pursuit had become a little looser?

There was no longer any sound of machine guns coming from the rear. DL, who was next to him, spoke.

“Are you anxious? The enemy’s pursuit suddenly stopped?”

“How do you know that?”

“It’s easy to understand, but it’s not good.”

“……Why?”

“It’s proof that the opponent knows the terrain here well.”

Only incomprehensible answers are coming out.

Then DL pointed ahead and said.

“The direction we are running in now is towards the cliff.”

“……!”

For a moment, Lian’s eyes wavered. But soon she looked back with a calm expression.

Because I just understood what DL meant.

‘Does that mean there’s no need to rush?’

Since it’s a cliff from which there’s no escape anyway, I guess it means that they’re definitely going to catch you.

“Rian, isn’t something strange?”

“I can no longer hear the sounds of battle from the rear. It seems the enemies are no longer pursuing me.”

Raymond and Varus also felt something strange.

At their words, Lian looked at DL who was next to her.

It just so happened that I had the chance to introduce DL.

Lian said, looking at Raymond and Varus.

“You two, please say hello. I know it was a bit unexpected, but I’d like to introduce myself now.”

“I will do it myself, Commander.”

DL nodded slightly at Raymond and Varus.

“Are you Captain Raymond and Captain Varus, your deputy commanders? I am DL, a sergeant of the Arrowhead Unit who has just enlisted in the Arrowhead Unit.”

“table?”

“You just enlisted?”

Raymond and Varus paused for a moment and looked at Lian.

What on earth does this mean?

Lian nodded with a stern expression.

“Yes, this is sergeant Diehl from the Arrowhead Unit. I hope you two will be of great help in the future.”

“A bookseller.”

“Umm… Since it was your decision, I can’t say anything.”

Because the situation is what it is, I can’t go into detail.

Raymond and Varus nodded in agreement at first, then spoke to Lian.

“So what should we do now?”

“It seems like the enemies are no longer pursuing us.”

Raymond and Varus, who didn’t know why, looked a little relieved.

But Lian, who knew the situation, asked DL.

“There must be a way, right?”

I figured there had to be a good reason why he chose this direction, even though he knew it was towards the cliff.

In response to Lian’s question, DL said:

“Do you know anything about the mountain people called the Red Wolves?”

“Red wolf?”

Lian tilted her head.

Because it was the first time he had heard that. It was Barus who reacted to that.

“Are you talking about a small tribe that once existed in the Kingdom of Meladion?”

“you’re right.”

“I heard that they have already become extinct and disappeared, so why are you asking about them?”

Long ago, the red wolf claimed the territory of the Kingdom of Meladion as its home.

Although it was only for a short time, their influence was so great that they were known as a symbol of fear in the Kingdom of Meladion.

But now, so much time has passed that no one even knows its name properly.

In response to Varus’ question, DL said:

“This is where the Red Wolves were active. And the only reason they were able to gain notoriety, even if only for a short time, was because they freely used this mountain as their home.”

At DL’s words, Lian frowned slightly.

Because she couldn’t understand what she was saying. And neither did Raymond and Varus.

DL continued speaking calmly.

“The Red Wolves had many enemies. They suffered many attacks from the Meladion Kingdom during their short heyday. So they had no choice but to create a means to evade those attacks and counterattack.”

Before I knew it, the cliff that DL had mentioned began to come into view.

It wasn’t that high, but it was a height from which you would definitely die if you jumped.

DL started looking around the large rock on the side of the cliff.

Lian looked at DL, who was suddenly looking for something, without saying anything.

And soon after, DL raised the corners of his mouth as he discovered something.

“We have to tear this down.”

“Kyle!”

“yes!”

thud!

With Lian’s shout, Kyle dropped the shield he was holding in both hands and grabbed his axe.

At the same time, Kyle kicked off the ground and jumped into the air, tilting his body back.

“Kuaaaaaaah!”

Kyle’s eyes flashed as he flew towards a giant rock bigger than a person. And the moment he swung his axe towards the rock, s …

With a loud crash, Kyle’s axe sank deep into the rock.

Crack-! Crack, crack!

And the moment he twisted and pulled the axe out, the rock split into two with a snap.

The Arrowhead unit members could not help but open their eyes wide in admiration at the sight.

But what was even more surprising was what happened next.

“Hey, what is that?”

“……passage?”

Lian couldn’t hide her surprise as she looked at the long passage leading to the ground right after the rock had broken.

What on earth is this?

DL approached Lian and explained calmly.

“It’s a means of escape used by the Red Wolves. They probably had their own technique for opening and closing that door, but I don’t know about that…….”

“Wow, that’s amazing! How did you know about this?”

Lian asked with genuine surprise. At that, DL stuck his tongue out and laughed lightly.

“I’m very interested in the various tribes that have influenced the continent in the past.”

‘amazing.’

Even if you have that kind of knowledge, isn’t actually using it in a field like this a different matter?

But you can always praise later.

Lian said as he hurriedly looked at Raymond and Varus.

“You take Isaac and the rest of the men and leave first. I’ll go last.”

“What are you talking about when you’re not even healthy!”

“Let’s go together.”

Although Raymond and Varus spoke strongly, Lian shook his head.

We must take care of Herilda and her unit who fought in the rear and go together.

“DL, please guide me.”

“Don’t worry.”

Due to Lian’s strong attitude, Raymond and Varus had no choice but to go into the passage first with Diehl.

Before entering the passage,

“Lord Lian!”

“……?”

Lian turned her head as she saw DL suddenly calling her name.

Then DL approached and said to Lian.

“When you finally come through this passage…….”

DL whispers softly into Lian’s ear.

Lian’s expression hardened slightly at her words.

After DL finished speaking, Lian asked.

“Is that okay to do?”

“Yes, please believe me.”

“……i get it.”

The conversation was over.

Lian quickly moved to the back while watching the unit members line up.

“Herald!”

“Vice Commander.”

The condition of the rear units was not very good.

Although the number of pursuing enemies had decreased, traces of the fierce battle remained.

Herilda looked at Lian and reported the situation calmly.

“The guys who were chasing me seem to be gradually slowing down and are now putting some distance between us. I wonder if they have some kind of plan…….”

“It seems like they are definitely planning on ending it because there is a cliff ahead.”

“A cliff?”

Herilda’s eyes shook greatly.

If there’s a cliff ahead, doesn’t that mean there’s nowhere else to run?

Lian lightly patted Herilda’s shoulder.

“The new strategist has come up with a clever plan. He is currently moving through a secret passage, so we will check from the rear and see if our troops enter the secret passage and go with them.”

“yes.”

Although she had to stay until the very end, Herilda did not utter a single word of complaint.

Looking at such a herald, Lian said.

“I’m sorry I always make you do difficult things.”

I was sincere.

Herilda’s troops from neutral zones have always been in charge of melee and dirty work.

Despite this, Herilda has not complained even once so far.

This time it was the same.

At Lian’s words, Herilda shook her head.

“Just by providing us with the current environment where we can live like human beings, we have received a favor from Lian that we can never repay. I am grateful that I can do this.”

“……Thank you for saying that.”

Lian tapped Herilda on the shoulder at her words and immediately turned her gaze to the back.

We’re taking it easy now, but they could come at us any minute.

“Move quickly!”

With over a thousand people having to pass through a passageway that can barely fit three or four people, there is bound to be quite a delay.

In his impatience, Lian shouted and urged his men to hurry.

* * *

The number of troops remaining was just over three thousand.

It’s still a number that can overwhelm the guys, but it’s a dismal reduction in numbers.

Marcel’s expression darkened as he roughly assessed the damage to his unit members.

‘There is so much to lose.’

Each and every one of the five thousand soldiers could truly be considered an elite soldier.

These are heroes who have fought on the battlefield with Marcel for a long time.

He lost a third of his men, and Felix, who had been by his side the longest, was also badly injured.

But that was why I couldn’t back down any longer.

Because it was clear that in the future, the guy would become a danger to them.

“Phew… Is this the end?”

Besides, we’re almost at the end now.

Because we just need to finish them off once and for all by pushing them off the cliff.

Marcel looked at the moving troops with a solemn expression. That was it.

“Hey, Marcel!”

One of the officers who had been commanding the men in front hurriedly ran towards Marcel.

Marcel looked at him and asked.

“What’s going on?”

“We’re in trouble! The enemies are coming down the cliff through a strange passage!”

“……!”

Going down a cliff, what kind of nonsense is that?

Marcel’s eyes shook greatly at his words. Then, in a panic, Marcel shouted.

“Increase your speed and catch them! No need to maintain formation! Hurry and chase after them!”

“Yes! Speed ​​up! The enemies are fleeing! Hurry up-!”

The order was quickly given at the shouts of other officers. Marcel’s men then began to move quickly towards the cliff.

Doo doo doo doo doo doo!

Just as I was wondering how to kill the fish caught in the net, I discovered that there was a hole in the net.

I can’t help but feel impatient.

When Marcel, with his men at the forefront, moved towards the cliff,

“You bastard!”

Marcel shouted loudly as he watched the Arrowhead troops entering the large hole.

Along with him, several officers rushed out towards them, leading their men.

“Do you think you’ll miss it?”

“Where are you guys running away like rats!”

Before they could even get close, Lian, who was holding the spear, swung it towards them, releasing an aura.

Kwaaaaang!

“Eww!”

“My, my legs! Kkaaaak!”

“Come on! Everyone, be careful!”

For ordinary soldiers who can’t handle the aura, the aura is a disaster in itself.

They hesitated in front of the absolute power that rendered ordinary swords and spears useless.

To withstand even one blow, you need a shield that is over 10cm thick, but it is impossible for ordinary people to even lift such a shield.

As soon as their steps stopped, Lian let out a small breath.

Because releasing the aura at the level just before was quite a burden to Lian as well.

‘but…….’

This definitely bought some time.

Besides, didn’t it catch the guys’ attention?

Lian saw Marcel among the enemy soldiers.

Lian met his eyes and smiled, slightly raising the corners of her lips.

Marcel’s expression twisted into a vicious grimace at the sight.

‘Are you laughing? How dare you!’

At that moment, I felt so angry that I felt like my mind was flying away.

But Marcel, trying hard to suppress his anger, shouted.

“Chase them! Don’t let them go!”

I couldn’t tell what that passage was, but I saw the guys going in right before my eyes.

Even if there is danger, we will take the risk together.

As Marcel’s men hurried to action at his shout, Lian also started running towards the passage.

I don’t know what this passage looks like or how long it is.

Just for now,

‘I have no choice but to trust DL… ‘

What she said to Lian before she entered the hallway.

[If possible, stay until the end and lure the enemies in as much as possible.]

If you made such a request, there must be a good reason.

‘Let’s go all the way.’

Lian started to run away like crazy, feeling the murderous aura of the enemy soldiers following behind him with his whole body.
