Why Ignorant Harems Are Dangerous - Why Ignorant Harems Are Dangerous chapter 50
50 – #11. Longing for Heroes (7)
Watch the formidable enemy slowly crumble.
Here, I defeated the strongest six-armed giant.
At the same time, the movements of the monsters around here gradually became passive, and the human side, which had been beaten up until now, began a massive counterattack.
I wonder if this six-armed demon who introduced himself as Kenarra led this incident?
I couldn’t be sure of that, but at least the Demonic Beasts that had flocked to this place were gradually retreating as the demons were defeated.
Survived.
Feeling that fact, his body was all in a mess, but his mind was much more comfortable than usual.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
The woman who introduced herself as Eina approached me.
In her final moments, if she didn’t run for her life, even exploding her sword, there was no way she would defeat this monster.
I knew from Mea how to explode the sword containing the Holy Law, but I also heard that it would be difficult to do much damage in practice.
“I survived because you ran to me in time.”
“…… How did you know?”
“Your eyes met.”
My purpose is not to defeat strong enemies.
This demon shouted struggle and seemed to focus on the battle itself, but even if this side defeated him, if the rear collapsed and the demon invaded the official residence, everything would be over.
That’s why I kept averting my eyes to grasp the situation, and because I met the eyes of this woman who was just staring at me, I searched for a way to create a gap on the spot.
I sat down on the floor as I watched the monsters step back.
Now, there is no strength anywhere in the body, including arms and legs. It was a little funny that his right arm was shattered.
For the first time in my life, I made up my mind to fight for someone.
Fighting with a sword, I set out with one single thought: to save others, not for myself. As a result, it became such a miserable mess…….
“How is it? Wasn’t this pretty cool?”
“Even if you ask me if I’m cool, I can’t see anything because of that weird mask.”
Is that so?
That’s an unavoidable problem.
Well, actually, it’s not meant to be shown to anyone.
I just set out in the hope that if I became a hero, the accumulated guilt within me would ease a little. I took action because I wanted to change myself, who had only known running away until now.
“…… Still, thank you.”
“The mother is a bit strange. Is that a habit?”
“I said thank you, what was the reaction!?”
No, that’s because weird is weird.
I’m going, I’m going, isn’t it supposed to sound strange? In addition, there was a feeling that I deliberately changed the word because it was awkward to hear someone thank me directly in honest words.
Act like a hero.
I participated in the war for the self-righteous reason of wanting to at least wash away my sins with that. This is also for myself, but isn’t it very awkward for someone to honestly express their gratitude?
“Thank you, take care of the others.”
“Others are like them, but you’re not feeling very well either.”
“…… That’s it.”
Unfortunately, it cannot happen alone.
His arm was broken and there was nothing he could do about it, but his legs kept shaking and he couldn’t get up, probably because he had poured all his strength into his body.
She could not help but stand up when the woman held her outstretched arm, but she tended to stumble if she tried to walk alone, so she wrapped her arms around her and leaned on her shoulder.
“Keuheum! Anyway.”
She cleared her throat and turned her head.
“I don’t know who it is, but I’m really grateful for that dedication.”
I didn’t expect to hear the word devotion from her, so I stared blankly at her.
It hadn’t been a long time since I’d heard someone say thank you like this, and it was a bit strange that it was purely expressing gratitude.
She will be a hero.
She made such a promise, but could that action have blossomed properly?
A decision of dedication to risking one’s life for someone else. I can’t imitate it at all, but I’m satisfied if I can at least look similar to him.
“That greeting is over, I want to go back to the official residence.”
That’s not what I needed.
So I shook her hand and pointed to the official residence. Lenny must be worried too, so to reassure her, I also felt the need to rest inside.
“If it weren’t for this situation, I would have attached a healer.”
“Because I know.”
Right now, I see soldiers who have collapsed from injuries.
Among them, there were a couple of people who looked like knights.
“First, show the wound. I’ll even wrap you in a bandage.”
“It’s okay, …… I don’t lose.”
I tried to say that it was okay because I thought I was trying to pack things too much, but when I thought about it, there was no way it would be okay to walk around with my arms around the shoulders of a woman I am seeing for the first time.
In response, she nodded and moved toward the official residence again.
* * *
The movements of the group of monsters changed every moment, so Mea sent Jack to her mansion to bring her Seo and Lenny, and at the same time, she was putting together the words of the informants coming from outside the city.
The sword master’s defeat.
Unaware of what they were defeated by, they only received information that they were returning to Sacheri, transporting countless injured people like beggars.
“Obviously these two are one incident….”
The defeat of the Sword Master and the sudden movement of the Demon Beast inside the Sachery.
This couldn’t be explained in isolation, and it definitely led to the conclusion that there was a demon moving inside, but there was no way to answer the question of how or why.
First of all, it is clear that the forces defending the cliffs of sorrow will not be easily penetrated.
Only the power of the Holy Kingdom gathered there is more than 1,000 existing power enough to operate the paladin as a platoon. In addition, thousands of regular troops were dispatched from the Carta kingdom, and in fact, more than 5,000 troops surrounded the area with a majestic fortress.
“…… No, this is not it.”
There were several demonic lands bordering the so-called Demonic Territory, but if even one of them was breached, it would be safe to say that it was the outbreak of a great war between the continent and the demons.
It’s strange that such a force suddenly came out from all over the city, but if the human barriers protecting the Demon Realm were truly breached, it couldn’t have ended at this point.
Obviously, the number of monsters witnessed here was not to be evaluated as small, but if you were really determined and prepared for a great war, you could say that these tricks and numbers are not enough.
So Mea was worried.
It felt as if the case had already been out of hand.
In the first place, it was a bizarre incident at the point where the Demon Beast was rampaging within Sacheri, which is said to be the supply route to the north, but even if it was excluded, it seemed that it would not end with the sword lord’s defeat and it would only end with the work inside the city.
“What shall we do?”
Mea closed her eyes and pondered for a moment at the question of her subordinate, whom she had been following since her days as the intelligence agency.
According to common sense, it is only right that she take all those who have fallen out and leave.
No matter how much I thought about it, it just didn’t seem like it would end with this. It was a serious situation that hundreds of monsters appeared in the city, but that alone could not explain the defeat of the Sword Master who had left.
“…… I have to leave.”
“I will prepare.”
“Check how the machine moves, and if it seems to be blocked, turn it with help. You guys couldn’t figure out Seo’s location either, right?”
“…… Sorry.”
At the time, she was unable to move easily due to the movement of large-scale monsters centered on the main street.
I don’t think he’s someone who can be easily defeated, but I can’t help but feel anxious. I just hoped that everything would work out, but in the first place, I am dissatisfied with how things turned out this way.
Why do these complicated things keep happening around me?
Nera was like that, and so was Cecilia.
Maybe even before that. Seo always drove incidents around him, and sometimes he himself poked his head into them, but most of the time he was dragged around.
“…… I really don’t know.”
She sighed and looked up.
The night sky is lit up with city flames, and it is hazy with a lot of black smoke. As if representing her complex state of mind, the night sky in this city was gloomy.
Confusion was still mounting.
I heard that the movement of the demons was concentrated in the direction of the official residence in the city, but that was only the movement of the demons confirmed in this area.
In addition, the problem of the sword master who is still running away has not been confirmed.
“First of all, keep solving the kids in this area to gather information.”
Mea was managing information even when she was working for the Empire, so she knew how important a single piece of information was in a situation like this.
If you don’t know anything, your choices become narrower.
She felt the need to grasp the information or situation around her as quickly as possible, and at least to know the inside story of the incident, especially if she was ambushed in a situation where she knew nothing.
In the passing time, she grasped her surroundings and passed the time.
Feeling that Jack, who left for her mansion, is gradually passing the time to return, Mea frowns and looks impatient to anyone, and a procession of refugees continues around the North Gate.
“Everyone get out of the way!!”
She noticed a series of groups entering the city rather from afar.
At first glance, a group of soldiers seemed armed, and behind them was a man with green hair who was moving on a stretcher gasping for breath.
“Hey, lord!!”
A boy with a rather graceful impression.
A man who was naturally short and slender, but was selected as one of the shining stars on the continent and called a hero because of his sword talent that far exceeded such physical limitations.
Sword Master.
He is now in a state of being unable to move without someone’s support, even his consciousness is hazy.
“What is this all about!?”
“Get out of the way first! Situation later…….”
“The city has become like this, where is the future?!”
The state of the sword master is also a state, but the series of events that are happening in the city are also currently ongoing.
Originally, there wouldn’t be a single big people who would have made noise to block the lord’s path, but those who clung to the sword lord’s way, thinking that they would only die if they wandered around here anyway, blocked the path of the sword lord.
Geomju, who needs to clean up this place, is still on a stretcher.
So she also thought that she should at least find out what happened outside first, and that was when she approached the group.
“…… It became.”
“Your lord?”
“It seems that the people are very confused.”
With a pale complexion, he barely got up from his stretcher and looked around at the crowd surrounding him.
Burning City. I could feel negative emotions such as despair, impatience, and sadness in people’s impressions, and I could tell that my temper was not safe from the bitter smell of burnt through my nose.
“Those gathered here, listen carefully.”
What I have to tell you now is the full story of his disastrous defeat.
It wouldn’t have been convenient to convey it to the people of the territory he was supposed to protect, but it was also a responsibility to make everyone aware of this situation.
“First, let me tell you one thing.”
The huge wound on his stomach was barely sutured using the s*x method.
To be honest, just getting up and moving like this was the limit, and the injury was so severe that it couldn’t lead to complete healing even with the Holy Law, but even so, raising the body was the only two words, “Responsibility.”
“We, the Expedition, were defeated.”
“…… Lord.”
The person next to him on the throne tried to dissuade him as if he was in trouble, but the sword master shook his head slightly and looked straight at everyone.
“It is a disastrous defeat. It was an indescribable defeat.”
“…… Then what should we do?”
In the meantime, if there was any hope, it was the return of the subjugation party that had gone out.
The immediate confusion was only caused by the lack of internal defense forces.
For those who thought that this city, and furthermore, that it could be solved if only the sword master, who was called the hero of this kingdom, returned, the words were like thunder from the blue sky.
“…… Run away everyone I know it’s hard work, but he’s coming soon. The only way to survive is to run south and further south.”
The words of the lord in charge of a city are not desirable.
Especially for those who carry the title of hero.
Mea was looking at him with her eyebrows furrowed, but he continued her words with a nonchalant expression, as if his words didn’t shake a single word.
“I know it’s irresponsible, but it’s impossible to stop it with all my power right now.”
“…… What the hell is coming?”
“Every major evil.”
The Great Demon.
The one responsible for the overwhelming defeat of the sword master, who made his name known throughout the continent, not just in the kingdom of Carta.
Of course, it was ambiguous to call it an official name, but at least everyone who encountered it called it the Great Demon.
“I alone cannot defend this city and you.”
He spoke calmly, and gave up for granted.
