The soldier’s body was torn apart in midair, his blood spraying among the vampires.
Seong Chol was a man who had recently awakened after being a captive of the raiders.
But now, with all the guild’s equipnt and buffs, he shouldn’t have been weak.
“Tch. The taste of the blood is unpleasant. Better than nothing, I suppose.”
Walking out covered in the dead soldier’s blood was a woman.
Blonde hair, and crimson eyes.
She couldn’t just be a random foreigner passing by.
I recalled the words of the captured vampire:
“Our ruler is the Queen… a noble of a different lineage than us commoner vampires.”
“Sergeant Shin, that woman, in my opinion…”
“I’m thinking the sa thing.”
That is the leader of the vampires.
The monster that has devoured the surrounding survivors and made them her servants.
‘…We’ve never had a soldier from the guild die before.’
He may not have been a comrade from the very beginning, but he was soone who was going to fight alongside us.
The first casualty of the unit.
Just a mont ago, I had resolved to avoid casualties as much as possible.
And he was killed without even being able to do anything.
This just… really pisses off.
“Gwang-il.”
“Reporting, Corporal Gwang-il.”
“The boss mob has appeared. You know what to do, right?”
“Yes.”
A growling beast sound ca from the nodding man’s mouth.
“Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Boom!!!
Unleashing his maximum frenzy, Gwang-il’s fist struck towards the Vampire Queen.
She must be a true boss for a reason.
The Queen narrowly evaded the attack, but…
“So, this is the power of a warrior-class. You do pack a punch.”
The Queen seed to be breaking a sweat seeing that attack.
If it had connected, it would have definitely been a critical hit.
“Supporting Corporal Gwang-il!”
“Stick in order of level!”
Looks like she thinks she’s pretty strong.
But the battle situation is already overwhelmingly in our favor.
“Tch…! Those accursed paladins!”
Just one monster showing up isn’t enough to change the tide.
As the elite soldiers with high levels from each squad engaged her, she was pushed back helplessly.
But then,
Ack!
Her hand grabbed the nape of one of our soldiers.
I thought he was about to die too but the Queen’s target was not that.
Her crimson eyes shone with a strange light as she gazed into the soldier’s eyes.
“Obey .”
“…Yes.”
” Byeong-min!?”
The soldier nodded his head.
What the hell.
Is this similar to the Eye Monster’s ability from the tank battalion?
The Queen holding the soldier spoke.
“Answer my question. Who is the strongest among you?”
The first person that ca to my mind at the Queen’s question was Private First Class Gwang-il.
‘Is she targeting Gwang-il!?’
Indeed, he was delivering an incredible performance against the Queen.
If asked to na the strongest in our unit, nine tis out of ten, Gwang-il would be ntioned.
But it seems that was just my own thought.
“That… that one is.”
Byeong-min pointed his finger towards ?!
“Him? He doesn’t look that strong, but…could it be my charm doesn’t work on him?”
“He may not look it, but Sergeant Shin’s strength is more than ets the eye…”
“Oh? Tell more.”
“Even before his Awakening, Sergeant Shin slew a monster with just a kitchen knife…”
Well…
Hmm, what can I say.
The statent wasn’t exactly wrong.
“It was Sergeant Shin who finished off the White Spider Queen during the tank battalion’s reclamation operation, and that flesh monster that had been controlling the plunderers.”
“Hmm!”
“He even walked alone into the depths of a dungeon and effortlessly slew the boss and returned unscathed.”
“Interesting, that’s quite impressive.”
“Even Corporal Gwang-il, renowned for his strength, often says he’s no match for Sergeant Shin, so there’s no disagreent among the unit…”
“I see.”
The Queen seed surprised at how formidable I apparently was.
“He didn’t look the part, but he seems to be a truly great warrior.”
She looked at with an intrigued gaze.
No, I can more or less understand why the misunderstanding arose.
“In that case, if I were to eliminate him, your unit’s combat power would be greatly diminished, correct?”
“It’s not quite like that… Our unit’s combat power is over 70% dependent on Sergeant Shin’s buffs. If he were to disappear, our unit would be so weakened that we couldn’t survive in this world…”
“Hahaha! Indeed, that seems to be the case!”
It’s nice that they’re evaluating so highly, but…!
“That was a good answer.”
Thud!
The captured soldier’s body was flung away. Fortunately, he didn’t seem to have died.
“It ans that with you gone, the rest can be easily handled by my underlings.”
So, you are the problem.
The Queen nodded as she said this, looking at .
As she pointed her finger at , a dark shadow began to gather around it.
“No, you are misunderstanding-”
“Co with then.”
The dark energy swirling around her coalesced and shot towards .
“Damn it!”
I hastily took a defensive stance and dodged, but the shadow seed to have so kind of special ability and continued to chase after .
“Sergeant Shin!”
“Protect Sergeant Shin!”
The soldiers ca rushing to defend , but unfortunately, they were a bit too late.
Prick.
The mont the black shadow touched my body,
Whoosh, the sight of the soldiers rushing to protect vanished.
No.
It’s not that the soldiers disappeared.
‘The one who disappeared would be… , I suppose.’
When I ca to my senses, I was no longer in the dark bunker.
Looking up at the sky,
I saw a blood-red sky, an unrealistic sight not of this world.
“Am I… dead?”
This must be the place called Hell, where I arrived the mont the Queen’s attack hit .
As I was thinking this,
“Welco to my domain, human.”
A figure suddenly appeared before my eyes.
The Queen greeted .
“Consider it an honor. You are the first I have invited to this place.”
Ah.
Damn it.
‘At least it’s not Hell, but this still seems like a pretty troubleso situation.’
