Eastern Expedition 11 – Aid

Regulus cannot hide his surprise with the appearance of the true beasts who have been left in the village.

[You guys… why are you here?]

That question was answered by a young wolf-faced man.

[Of course, to be together with you, Chief.]

[Stupid! If you move, that pig king will aim for our infants…]

[Please calm down, Chief.]

The wolf-faced warrior said so and quietly placed his hand on Regulus’s shoulder.
Then, he gently looked to the back.

A group of true beasts quietly divided into two. At the center of it was the figure of a true beastman’s child held by a man.

[N-no way….]

[Yes, it’s as you think…]

The wolf-faced man smiled while he said that.

[That child was saved. Thanks to this human army…]

=====

The most important command that Ares had ordered was to Zekka.
It was to obtain Regulus’ weakness that was being held by Dormages and rescue it.

In response to the instructions, the [Dragon’s Eye] immediately began to act.

In Dormages’s castle, many demons are wandering around. At the same time, there is no well-established system for security.
To rescue the hostages from that kind of castle is an easy task for [Dragon’s Eye] which is probably the best in the continent in covert actions.

They sneaked into  Dormages’ castle, and after they finished investigating the location, they successfully rescued the hostages.

[That… something like this…]

[Chief… There is no need for you to suffer any longer. We… have been saved…]

The wolf-faced man was moved to tears.

Regulus looked at the true beast infant. He thought that his eyes were imagining things, but there seems to be no difference in his life.

[I’m glad you were able to make it on time.]

Suddenly, he can hear a voice from his back.

When he turned his face to that side, the person that had been exchanging blows with our lives as a wager earlier stretched his legs out and sat on the ground while showing a gentle smile.

[… Do you know these men?]

[They are my subordinates… As so to speak, my counterintelligence force.]

After that, the man stood up slowly. However, his whole body seems worn out. He found that the man was staggered a little in the short distance from his place.
In a hurry, the human who seemed to be his subordinate supported his shoulders.

[Now, Chief of the True Beastmen. Let’s end this battle for the time being. That’s why… First of all, why don’t you release the [Fighting spirit] at the monsters?]

=====

As soon as the fighting spirit that Regulus used to command the demon beast was released, the demon beasts began to move apart.

[As expected, when this happens, they become a flock of beasts.]

Ares borrowed Shu’s shoulders and watched the situation from a small hill.

[So, what will you do? Even if we cut down the leadership, their numbers will not decrease at all.]

Ares laughed and answered the question.

[If they already lost their leadership, we won’t need to be afraid of demons. There’s something you can do about it.]

Ares turned his gaze toward the flock of demon beasts.

[Well then… Shall we launch the last fireworks for them? First, let’s confuse them.]

[…Master, don’t overdo yourself.]

Shu looked a little worried.

[Thank you for your worries… Well, if you don’t do this, this battle won’t be ended. So, I’ll overdo it just a little…Well, as a Master, I’m disqualified from making my subordinates worry about me too much…]

Then Ares quietly began to chant magic.

(What the hell is going on!?)

Regulus silently looked at the situation along with other true beastmen.

Ares keeps chanting with his eyes closed.

(Because it’s difficult to control it this time… If I don’t do it carefully, it might affect the city.)

Ares opened his eyes while muttering inside his heart and unleashing the ultimate spell of non-attribute magic.

[Go! Meteor bombing (Meteor Strike)!]

With his words, the cloudless sky suddenly darkened, and then…

Gogogogogogogogogogogogo

With a strange noise, the meteorites began to fall like a rainstorm.

At first, meteorites begin to fall behind the empty battlefield.

With that as a signal, Ares’s army evacuated to the inside of the castle gate.
Regulus was amazed when he saw the army’s smooth movement.

On the contrary, the flock of demons heard the roar and began to go into a frenzy.

Gradually, the meteorite began to move in the direction of the demons. And one by one, meteorites poured down again.

[Gishaaaaaaaa!]

The demons fell into chaos.

The meteorite continues to fall for a while. The situation is exactly a picture of hell. The demons were crushed and blown away, breathless. A fleeing demon beast trampled the other demon beast. The demon beasts which were flying in the sky were flying around and colliding with each other to avoid meteorites before falling to the ground.
The turmoil caused turmoil, and some demon beasts began to fight each other to save their own lives. Yes… the battlefield has reached perfect chaos.

However, the demons are not the only ones in a difficult situation.

[Guh!]

[My Lord!]

[It’s okay, I can keep going a little longer…]

Ares has a pale blue face that he has never seen before and he was also gasping for breath.

Meteor Strike is not intended to be used for a long time.

It’s an [Anti-strategic magic] spell written in ancient documents

Therefore, its consumption magic power is tremendous, and in some cases, it can even take the life of the caster.

Shu was looking at the appearance of his Master who was in pain.

(Damn, if Sigurd-dono is here…)

He would surely have stopped Ares. But I still can’t do that… I’m so miserable.

It was the moment when I thought so.

Ares kneeled.

At this point, Shu ran up and called out to him.

[My Lord, please stop. Let us do the rest.]

[…It’s such an unfortunate thing… until now… Well, the role of this magic is… the fighting spirit of the demon beast, the loss and confusion, so… the rest of it went as planned if our cavalry charged right now…]

[It’s alright, my Lord. Please take a rest now! Zecca!]

[I know! Leave it to me!]

Zecca also appeared in a rush when Shu shouted. Zecca also had an unusually impatient color on his face.

[Hahaha… Zecca, your impatient appearance… We’ve had a long relationship, but it’s like it was my first time seeing it…]

[Please stop playing around. It’s okay for you to take a day off.]

[Well, there are true beasts over there… So, I can’t take a long rest yet…]

While saying that, Ares slowly collapsed. Zecca took his figure in a hurry. Shu ran up in the same way.

[It’s okay,  there is no abnormality in his breathing. He will just sleep a little. You must act your role.]

When he called out to Shu, who was looking anxiously, Zecca held Ares in his arms. Then slowly start walking in the opposite direction of the battlefield.

On the other hand, Shu stood up as if he had determined his mind, as soon as he heard Zekka’s voice, and slowly headed toward Regulus.

[Lord of the True Beastmen.]

[Y-yes.]

Regulus, who was watching all the time, was confused when he was suddenly called out.

[From now on, I will annihilate that demon beast. What will you do?]

[…We…]

The true beasts were watching the current exchange.

Regulus was watching the appearance of Ares who fell after using his magic, even though he was already worn out because of the fighting against Regulus.

Is there a beastman warrior who doesn’t get excited about this appearance? No, there is none.

[We’re also going, Chief!]

The wolf-faced warrior replied.

[He… That man saved our brothers. Shall we pay him back? ]

[…Is that all right…?]

When he was asked by Regulus, the other true beasts silently held their weapons firmly and showed their willingness to fight.

[Understood. O’ human warrior. We, the true beasts, will cooperate with you more than this. Now, let us go!]

Oooooooooooooh! 

The roar of the true beastman echoes.

Upon hearing that, Shu kept his expression and opened his mouth.

[If so, then don’t be late! My comrade, a true beast warrior!]

[Ha ha ha! Right back at you!]

When Shu and Regulus smiled at each other’s words, they rushed out with lightning speed; the true beast warrior followed after them.

It was only shortly after this that more screams of demons echoed on the frenzied battlefield.
