The Skevin Clan.

With an average height of 1.5m and rat-like appearances, they were Rotark’s direct unit even within the 2nd Corps.

“Squeak squeak! Squeak!”

Like their weak appearance, the Skevin Clan originally had almost no military power.

Their combat power, comparable to goblins, was barely passable even by Demon King’s Army standards.

The Skevin Clan was always bound to be looked down upon.

The only tasks they were given were menial jobs like carrying supplies in the rear.

However, everything changed when Rotark became the 2nd Corps Commander.

Rotark knew that his clan was clever and cunning.

He began various research, and soon succeeded in elevating his clan to the ranks of the strongest.

“Squeak squeak! Fire! Fire! I said fire!”

Rotark shouted excitedly.

Endless rows of huge artillery positions stretched around him.

The magic artillery developed by Rotark.

Using demonic energy stored in magical beast Almasen, these magical engineering devices could fire long-range bombardments of over 20km.

Pueong! Pueong! Pububeong!

The sight of demonic energy exploding from 100 artillery positions was spectacular.

Each cannon had power comparable to high-level magic.

Such magic cannons were reducing the Black Giant Star to ashes.

“Prepare for battle!”

“Squeak squeak! Let’s kill those idiots whose brains are filled with muscles!”

Besides this, the Skevin Clan possessed countless weapons.

Thanks to equipment that could be considered over-technology in this world, the 2nd Corps headquarters where the Skevin Clan gathered was rated as the unit with the highest combat power relative to troop numbers.

“Squeak squeak! It’s breaking apart nicely!”

The Black Giant Star had no choice but to helplessly suffer the surprise attack.

Various protective magic and devices that had been on the castle were destroyed in the previous battle between Hemis and Park Hyun-a.

Only the castle’s exterior had been restored.

Right now, the Black Giant Star couldn’t handle hundreds of high-level magic attacks pouring down.

Even if the protective magic had been intact, it was questionable whether it could have blocked this bombardment.

Kugugugugu…!

The castle, counted among the largest on the continent, was collapsing.

This happened just 5 minutes after the bombardment began.

Watching the collapse of the castle that was like a symbol of the Demon King’s Army gave a strange satisfaction.

At that moment, Rotark’s expression twisted.

“Already over?”

The bombardment stopped.

Because they ran out of demonic energy.

It couldn’t be helped since each shot consumed so much demonic energy.

“It shouldn’t matter. Send in the chimeras.”

“Squeak squeak! Understood.”

Rotark wasn’t concerned.

He had expected the demonic energy to run out quickly anyway.

The Black Giant Star had already collapsed.

There wouldn’t be many living beings left inside.

All that remained was to confirm kills with the Chimera corps.

“Kieeek!”

“Kwaaah!”

The Chimera unit, with various appearances, marched forward.

Their number was as many as two thousand.

It might seem like a small number at first glance, but each chimera was a strong entity with combat power exceeding 10,000.

Rotark had bet everything on this battle.

He had poured in the corps’ best forces that he had gathered until now.

“Finally appeared, huh.”

Rotark raised his head to look up.

At the same time, the sky began to split.

Jjeoeoeoeoeok-!

Precisely above the Chimera unit.

Black flames poured down from the split sky.

It was Hemis’s magic.

“Interesting.”

Rotark grinned.

Actually, the real battle could be said to start now.

The main goal was to take Hemis’s head.

Until now was just the appetizer.

Rotark raised his hand.

Woowoong…!

The demonic energy spreading from within him attacked Hemis’s flames.

A clash of demonic energies.

A thunderous sound rang out, and both sides disappeared without achieving any result.

Even during this, the Chimera corps didn’t stop and continued marching.

“Hooh~ Not bad? To think you’d block it so easily.”

A familiar voice was heard.

A voice he had heard tiredly for hundreds of years.

Once admired, but now just irritating to hear.

“Squeak squeak! Later than expected.”

The red lips that had appeared at some point.

Hemis was looking down at Rotark.

***

“Choi Hyun-seok. Are you alive?”

“Yes… Somehow I seem to have not died.”

Reidrun got up from his spot.

The huge pile of rocks covering his body collapsed with a rumble.

“Thank you.”

Choi Hyun-seok bowed his head.

Reidrun could have easily avoided the bombardment.

Yet he stood his ground to protect Choi Hyun-seok.

Because if Choi Hyun-seok had been hit by the bombardment, he might have received fatal injuries.

“It’s nothing.”

“No. If it weren’t for you, Lord Reidrun… I don’t know what would have happened… I’ll never forget this debt until I die!”

“Ahem, you don’t need to go that far…”

Reidrun awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

He seemed unable to completely suppress his laughter even while trying to force it back.

At that moment, Choi Hyun-seok urgently looked around.

“Come to think of it, where’s Abelson…!”

He didn’t care what happened to the other Demon King’s Army bastards.

But Abelson was different.

He couldn’t let such a beauty die meaninglessly.

“Lord Reidrun. We must find Miss Abelson!”

The surroundings were already completely devastated.

It was such a tremendous attack that even Choi Hyun-seok, who had become quite strong, couldn’t guarantee survival.

It was questionable whether Abelson Mariette, who had lower combat ability despite being the next Holy Maiden, would be alive.

“Don’t worry. Even though she’s not an official Holy Maiden, she’s one of only three on the continent. She probably doesn’t have a single scratch.”

“Is that so…?”

“That’s right.”

A familiar voice was heard from the side.

When they hurriedly turned their heads, they saw Abelson.

Although she looked disheveled covered in dust, she didn’t appear to be injured.

“Miss Abelson. Are you alright!?”

“Yes. I’m perfectly capable of protecting myself.”

“Phew, thank goodness.”

“By the way, what’s going on?”

Reidrun provided the answer to that question.

“The Skevin clan. No, it seems the 2nd Corps used wide-area magic.”

“If it’s the 2nd Corps, was this done by Corps Commander Rotark?”

“Corps Commander Rotark is here, but this isn’t his magic. This was used by the soldiers.”

“For soldiers to use such magic…”

Choi Hyun-seok looked around.

All that could be seen was dust and collapsed building debris.

The entire Black Giant Star had collapsed.

It was large-scale magic of a scale he had never seen before.

It would have been hard to believe even if Rotark had used it, let alone a mere soldier using such magic.

No matter how he thought about it, it was strange.

“The 2nd Corps is somewhat special. More precisely, the Skevin clan, who are the core of the 2nd Corps, are extraordinary. I hear they create all sorts of bizarre devices using something called magical engineering.”

Magical engineering was a field that hadn’t been around for very long.

It was a field that humans had only seriously begun researching just over 100 years ago.

However, Rotark had been dealing with magical engineering long before that.

“This was long-range artillery fire used by the artillery unit. I’ve only heard about it, this is my first time seeing it in person.”

Choi Hyun-seok felt dizzy.

Swords and bows. In a world dominated by magic, suddenly artillery appears.

While it seemed strange at first, the involvement of magic made it somewhat comprehensible.

‘I wondered what they were doing in the laboratory every day, so this is what they were making?’

Choi Hyun-seok mainly only visited research facilities related to Chimeras, so he didn’t know much.

Thinking about it, in a world where war was commonplace, there was no reason not to create military supplies using magic.

‘I’ll have to look into this in detail later.’

Choi Hyun-seok kept the term magical engineering in the back of his mind.

It seemed like something he would need to properly investigate someday after this was over.

“They’re coming.”

Reidrun turned his head to look in the direction from which the artillery had come.

Soon after, Choi Hyun-seok began to sense it too.

The enemy.

‘There are many. At least over a thousand.’

Each one carried fairly strong demonic energy.

Such enemies were approaching in countless numbers.

Choi Hyun-seok and Reidrun could tell that they were Chimeras.

“Choi Hyun-seok. Can you move?”

“Yes. No problem.”

Choi Hyun-seok nodded.

Although they were caught off guard by the sudden artillery fire, there was no damage.

Since he hadn’t particularly overdone it in the previous sparring match, his condition wasn’t bad.

“Can you see the Skevin clan coming behind the Chimeras?”

Choi Hyun-seok narrowed his eyes.

‘Hmm, I think I can see them…’

The Chimeras were generally large in size so they were clearly visible.

However, the Skevin clan, the rat bastards coming behind them, were so short in average height that they were hard to spot.

“The Skevin clan, not the Chimeras, are the key. We need to break through the Chimeras and get to them.”

“Understood.”

“Once we get close, dealing with them won’t be a big problem. Their combat ability is terrible.”

“Yes.”

“Still, be careful. The Skevin clan uses extraordinary magical devices. You must never underestimate them.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Holy Maiden. Please support Choi Hyun-seok. Can you do that?”

“No problem.”

In wars between humans, a Holy Maiden’s role is limited.

It’s a supporting role, such as protection and healing.

However, when facing the Demon King’s Army, it’s a different story.

The tremendous holy power emitted by a Holy Maiden was nothing short of a weapon in itself.

“Then go. I’ll move separately.”

Choi Hyun-seok and Abelson nodded and immediately moved.

Reidrun watched Choi Hyun-seok’s retreating back and then shifted his stance.

‘I should do what I can do.’

Reidrun planned to hunt the commander.

Rotark knew that he was here.

If that was the case, he would certainly have brought someone of division commander rank.

‘At least one. Maybe two or three, but the probability is low.’

Reidrun guessed there would probably be only one division commander-level person.

What Rotark had done was a kind of civil war.

Moreover, the opponent was Hemis.

It wouldn’t be easy to convince division commander-level personnel.

There was also a high risk of information leaking and being counterattacked.

‘He must have brought Division Commander Gaildao, whom Corps Commander Rotark cherishes the most.’

So his task here was clear.

12th Division Commander Gaildao.

Find and deal with him.

***

Choi Hyun-seok glanced back.

Abelson was running hard, her silver hair flowing.

‘Will she be okay…?’

Until now, Abelson had been someone to protect.

But suddenly having her participate directly in combat made him worry.

The Chimera corps was getting closer.

This was the last chance to turn back.

“Miss Abelson, wouldn’t it be better for you to go back?”

Abelson shook her head.

“Don’t worry about me.”

“But the enemy seems quite formidable…”

Thousands of enemies.

The demonic energy they possessed was also strong.

Even Choi Hyun-seok wasn’t confident about surviving.

To be honest, he didn’t have the luxury of fighting while looking after Abelson.

“That’s right! You won’t be of any help, so just go! I, Rachel, will protect the Hero!”

Rachel was suddenly perched on his shoulder, though no one knew when she had appeared.

She stuck out her tongue at Abelson.

Although it might have been appropriate to stop such aggressive behavior, Choi Hyun-seok remained silent.

Right now, Rachel was correct.

Abelson continued to look at Choi Hyun-seok and Rachel with an expressionless face.

“Can’t you understand what we’re saying? You’ll just be in the way, so hurry up and leave!”

Just as Rachel was excitedly shouting, suddenly Choi Hyun-seok yelled.

“Rachel! Look ahead!”

Something was flying toward them from the front.

“Wh-what is that!?”

“I don’t know, but block it for now!”

It looked like some kind of laser beam.

Hundreds of laser beams made of demonic energy were flying in.

Looking closely, they could see the rat bastards behind the Chimera corps holding something that looked like guns.

“First artillery, now guns!?”

“Hero, what should we do!?”

“We can’t dodge this. We have to block it somehow!”

The lasers were pouring down like rain.

Each one had concentrated demonic energy that was too powerful to ignore.

Here, they had no choice but to rely on his toughness and Rachel’s defensive magic.

That’s what they thought.

Until Abelson moved.

“Step back.”

Abelson swung her arm.

Simultaneously, a wave of bright light poured out from her.

Whoooooosh!

A wave of holy power.

No, it was closer to a tsunami.

The laser beam made of magic lost its power instantly and disappeared.

The holy power didn’t stop there and continued forward, overwhelming the enemy.

“Keeeeeeek!”

“Kyaaaaa-!”

Thousands of chimeras writhe in pain.

The chimeras stopped their advance and screamed wildly.

The Skevin Clan who were attacking from behind

Also couldn’t avoid the aftermath.

They threw down their guns and were rolling on the ground.

“…”

With just one attack, thousands of enemies were left in a groggy state.

Choi Hyun-seok and Rachel turned to look at Abelson with eyes that seemed about to pop out.

Abelson, still expressionless, wiped the sweat from her forehead.

“Phew, I can’t use it often. Please hurry and go.”

“Yes!”

Choi Hyun-seok ran without another word.

Rachel, seemingly unwilling to lose until the end, reluctantly shouted.

“Y-you’re somewhat useful after all!”

“Honestly, she seems about a hundred times more useful than you.”

“That’s not true! Rachel is all-capable!”

“Sure. Let’s say that’s true.”

His voice was dripping with annoyance.

Anyone could see he was reluctantly agreeing.

Rachel clenched her fists in frustration.

“Just watch! I’ll show you Rachel’s competence now!”

Choi Hyun-seok stroked his chin.

“Strange. It seems like there were quite a few chances to show it until now, or is it just me?”

“Hero! Whose side are you on!?”

“Obviously Abelson’s.”

“Eeek…! Just you wait and see!”

“Yeah, yeah. I get it, so could you please shut up now. The battle’s starting.”

“Arrrrrgh! Everyone’s dead!”

This was Rachel, whose combat power increases by 200%.
