Kill the Emperor Chapter 9 : Chapter 9

Chapter 9 : I Will Bring It Back (3)

“It is dangerous, Young Master!”

The Captain of the Guard, who heard my purpose for the visit, imdiately raised his voice and dissuaded .

“Young Master, what is presud to be at the place you just ntioned is none other than a Black Orc and to subjugate that guy, it is insufficient even if we mobilize all the troops here. To subjugate them, there must be troops led by at least a 5-star level knight.”

“Right, I know well. So you guys are probably concentrating on defense using this base instead of subjugating them.”

However, whether listening to the Captain of the Guard’s dissuasion or not, I only examined the forest map with a calm expression.

“Young Master, if you saw the situation here, you would know, but here, the actual situation is that we are barely blocking their attacks just in case. Furthermore…….”

Because many wounded soldiers occurred due to my desertion without leave last ti, any support is impossible; such words soared up to his throat, but the Captain of the Guard suppressed those words.

However, just with that expression, the Captain of the Guard’s intention seed to be sufficiently conveyed.

“I understand. I understood your will well. Then I will get going now.”

“Young Master, my words…….”

“You probably know, but I ca to convey the Family Head’s order to you, not to obtain your permission.”

“Young Master! Even now, think……!”

“Thank you for the concern, but I will decline anymore. And I will tell you just in case, keep in mind the Family Head’s order written on that pass.”

Ending with these words, I left the defense fortress’s commander’s office just as I was.

The Captain of the Guard, left alone, recalled Redin’s order written on the pass he checked a little while ago once again.

‘Let Hein Reichart pass, but all troops of the guard unit shall defend their current positions to the death.’

The pass written in handwriting as strict as Redin’s nature was ordered clearly.

That any troop support to support is forbidden.

Because of this, the Captain of the Guard was suffering from an extre dilemma.

Since there is the Family Head’s strict order, he cannot withdraw troops at will to support , but if he sends alone like this…….

‘It’s a suicidal act!’

Of course, even if he mobilized all troops of the guard unit, subjugating the Black Orc was a task close to impossible.

But still, he could not just watch with open eyes as the Family Head’s son entered a death ground like this.

Thud!

Right when the Captain of the Guard was lost in thought, the sound of the defense fortress’s door opening was heard, and the back figure leaving that door alone was seen.

“Damn it!”

The Captain of the Guard, who confird the figure of moving away from the fortress at a fast speed, shouted while making an expression as if he would chew up.

“All troops, enter ergency standby as of the current ti!”

Since there was the Family Head’s order, he could not mobilize troops at will, but to prepare for a just-in-case scenario, he decided to issue an ergency standby order for now.

Towards my back figure that was not even visible anymore, the Captain of the Guard said as if vomiting out.

“There should be no trouble for that prodigal…….”

***

‘Now, shall I try starting?’

I, having passed the defense fortress and arrived at the entrance of the hunting ground which was the place where I lost the Family Sword, imdiately started preparations to begin the hunt.

‘What rules this forest is the Black Orc and he has several loyal slaves. Diligent slaves who shut up and gather valuable treasures and offer them to their master.’

Orcs and goblins are monsters that form groups, and their hierarchical relationship is decided by the size of the power they possess.

In other words, presumably, the rank relationship of the monsters in this forest is…….

‘Black Orc – Orc group – Goblin group, this order probably. Goblins are greedy guys, but they are guys as quick-witted as they are greedy. They must have offered the treasures they discovered to their master. If so, that Black Orc guy must have my Family Sword by now.’

Having organized my thoughts, I imdiately started to awaken the mana sleeping inside my body.

“Phew!”

As I inhaled lightly, the mana condensed in my body dwelled in every corner of my physical body, and things that were not felt at all just a little while ago started to be felt clearly.

‘The completed mana rings are still 2. But thanks to that matter with Alain, the circulation speed has definitely beco faster. With this much, maybe up to the magic of the mid-3rd Circle is possible.’

Usually, the ford mana rings and the magic of the Circle one can use are bound to correspond.

If mana rings are ammunition, should I say the magic of the relevant Circle is the sa as a firearm?

In other words, it ans that to use magic of the 3rd Circle, 3 mana rings are needed.

However, I, no, Alexar possessed an excellent mana circulation speed that deviated from the usual formula.

‘If it is attack magic of the mid-3rd Circle, Lightning Bolt, Fire Wall, and Acrylic Laser, roughly this much?’

Alexar, whose circulation speed of the runes forming the mana rings was incomparably fast compared to other mages, was not only able to use magic of a higher Circle, but his mana possession amount was also several tis more abundant.

This was exactly the reason why Alexar of the previous life ca to be called the continent’s best mage.

‘To subjugate a Black Orc group, a 5-star level knight is needed. If so, it ans I must land a direct hit with at least magic of the 3rd Circle or higher to knock him down…….’

If it goes to the highest level, the story becos different, but usually, at a certain level or below, it is known that a mage’s magic has stronger firepower than a knight’s aura.

Of course, instead, magic has the disadvantage that it needs a lot of ti to prepare.

‘How many tis can I use 3rd Circle magic right now? 2 tis, or 3 tis?’

My expression as I organized my thoughts was not very bright.

‘If I could use even just the attack Unique Spells, it would be much easier.’

The point that I had not yet recovered the Unique Spells I could use for attack weighed on my mind.

I could use a few auxiliary Unique Spells like Mana Drain, but the Unique Spells I could use for attack were in a state not yet recovered.

And considering the point that the Unique Spells Alexar achieved possess power that cannot be compared to usual Circle magic, the regret was felt even greater.

‘If there are no teeth, I must chew even with gums. Let’s see, what would be good?’

Suppressing the thirst for the state I had achieved in the past that suddenly raised its head, I ruminated on the list of magic I could use right now.

But right at that ti.

“Kireuk-kerek!”

Thanks to the mana circulating inside my body, my hearing, developed to a superhuman level, detected the guy’s frivolous laughter.

From my mouth that ended the montary worry, a low incantation flowed out.

“Illusion!”

***

Cutting through the dense bushes, a monster with a stubby body, a protruding belly, and hideous pupils revealed its figure.

“Kerek!”

The goblin, who was pushing through here and there in the bushes with a crude axe held in his hand, discovered the corpse of a bird that died while wounded.

Tap tap.

“Kerek!”

The goblin examined the reaction of the bird corpse in a way of picking up stones and throwing them while hiding his body in the forest.

“Kere!”

After a while, the goblin, who confird that the bird was completely dead and there were no other predators around, vomited out a greedy strange scream and approached towards the corpse.

And he rolled his hideous eyeballs and examined left and right.

“Kerek!”

If it were according to the original way, the principle was to offer all prey discovered during reconnaissance to the group’s leader.

However, the sll rising from the nape of the bird lying dead while bleeding was too fragrant.

In the end, the goblin who could not overco the temptation opened his snout wide.

And the mont he drove his fangs in!

Pop!

Flas rose from the bird’s nape.

The goblin, directly hit by the flas, collapsed while losing consciousness just like that.

“With this, the first stage is complete.”

I, who revealed my figure after confirming the goblin lost consciousness, lifted the guy’s body and opened his snout and I poured the liquid I brought from the castle into the guy’s body just like that.

“Ke…… ereuk…….”

Even amidst losing consciousness, the goblin’s body squird and accepted the hallucinogen.

Woo-woong.

I, having fed all the hallucinogen, brought my hand to the goblin’s face and cast a recovery spell.

Anyway, this guy is an important carrier who will spread the drug I made inside the cave.

“……Uuh…….”

After a while, as signs that the goblin seed to regain consciousness were seen, I hid my body again.

“Kerek!”

The goblin, who regained consciousness again, looked around for a while and then picked up the axe that had fallen beside him.

And as if nothing had happened, he headed in the direction where he had revealed his figure just like that.

‘Now, guide . To the place where your leader is hiding.’

***

“Kerek!”

“Ke-e-reuk!”

After a while, I, who confird the goblin eting a comrade and hiding his figure inside the cave, was lost in thought while hiding my figure on a tree where the cave’s entrance was seen well.

‘For the dicinal effect to spread inside the cave, seven or eight hours will be needed.’

The hallucinogen fed to the goblin would have spread evenly in the guy’s body by now.

It will be mixed in the sweat poured out while the guy roams inside the hot and humid cave and spreads to every corner of the cave.

‘Eight hours, huh? It is the perfect ti to cultivate mana.’

I closed my eyes and concentrated my mind.

Then, as always, I entrusted my body to the wave of runes wrapping my body comfortably.

***

The forest’s sun sets quickly.

And the hunter who hid his body in the darkness that beca thicker,

‘Now it’s about ti for the drug effect to work?’

Chewing jerky loudly, was waiting for the ti of the hunt to arrive.

Perhaps thanks to finishing a round of mana circulation, vitality overflowed in my body, and it was a situation where I had already finished all preparations at the cave entrance and the hiding place.

Like that, around the ti I, who concentrated my gaze on the cave entrance, chewed and swallowed the second jerky.

“Kak, kareuk!”

‘It’s here!’

The signal I was waiting for was heard from inside the cave.

“Kerek!”

One goblin of short stature beca covered in wounds and ran out of the cave in a hurry.

On the guy’s nape, an orc’s teeth marks were clearly engraved.

‘Bingo!’

The mont I confird that figure, I confird that the drug effect worked properly.

An Orc is a higher monster occupying a clear upper rank than a goblin.

By the way, the fact that an orc’s teeth marks remained on a goblin’s nape ant that a crack occurred in the clear master-servant relationship of these two.

The catalyst that caused that crack must have been the hallucinogen I made.

“Kerek-kerek!”

In the yellow pupils of the goblin who revealed his figure out of the cave, embarrassnt he had not felt until now was revealed intact.

Just until yesterday, that cave would have been a sanctuary where safety was guaranteed for the guy, although it was arduous.

However, starting a few hours ago, the situation had changed.

The reliable orcs who ruled him, the goblin comrades who ate rice in the sa bowl were nowhere to be seen, and around him were only human soldiers who ca to hunt him.

The embarrassed guy could not even think of grasping the situation and swung his knife in all directions, and this was the sa for other orcs and goblins inside the cave.

Due to the hallucinogen effect, the monsters perceived each other as human soldiers, not comrades, and from then on, the cave where the guys were hiding their bodies turned into a picture of hell in an instant.

“Ke-ek!”

The goblin, relieved at the fact that he escaped the hell filled entirely with enemies, tried to run out of the cave entrance, almost crawling.

Swish!

“Ke-ek!”

At that ti, a sharp dagger flew through the night sky and embedded in the goblin’s ankle.
