It's Sudden, but I Came to Another World! But I Hope to Live Safely Chapter 185

It's a good idea to keep your eyes on the Holy Knights as they fight to reduce the number of enemy soldiers. Ao and Lakra are attacking the demon army from a different direction than the one the humans are attacking from. I've told them to call me at any time if they think they're going to have to fight a unique class, but with Lakra by their side, they don't have to worry about that much.

In the event you're not sure what to do, you may want to check with your doctor. Most of them are able to set wards individually, and the clerics are able to use their own means of attack, preventing the melee from escalating and steadily defeating the enemy. However, if a captain of a unique class appears, only a skilled person such as Yokus, the leader of the Holy Knights, can take him seriously. In order to avoid causing unnecessary damage, you should pay close attention to detecting the surroundings.

This is enough to win without having to wait for reinforcements from our people. ....... No, the enemy is starting to get wise.

The enemy soldiers who were not fighting behind us began to split up and run past our soldiers. Sensing the danger of a siege, the holy knights reformed their formation, but it seems that this is not the case. It seems that they are trying to spread out ...... and avalanche into Mejis.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. At the same time, a message from Ao entered my head. The Demon Lord is able to communicate with nearby demons, and the speed and convenience of this communication is superior to that of the secret communication magic of Mejis.

I'm not sure what to do. This is more like running away.

It seems so. It seems they've decided they'll only lose if they fight here. Is that why they're heading into Mejis territory, to destroy as many villages as they can?

"That's what I thought. What are you going to do?

I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it. We should be the ones who can move freely here. Besides--

"Contact the holy knights and we'll intercept them at the nearest village. As long as we move, there will be no disruption to the leadership of the Medis. And the nearest village would be there.

"Ah! Natra and the others in the rear support won't be able to evacuate in time. We have to hurry!

We've got to hurry! I can see the blue army receding in the distance. If they're heading straight for the village, they'll be able to make some preparations to intercept us, unlike the enemy soldiers who plan to attack in a roundabout way.

I told the nearby holy knights about the interception and asked them to hold the line. Then I contacted Harkdock and the others and flew to the village.

During the flight, I noticed that Harpy and the others who were flying in the sky were moving towards the Mejis demon world. We should assume that they were sent back by order of the Scarlet Witch King. If that's the case, they're beginning to read our moves. The Harpies have already been brainwashed, so making them retreat purely is one way to buy time. When I arrived at the entrance of the village, Lakra and Ao were already waiting for me. But I could already see the enemy soldiers closing in on me.

There are still people in the village! There are still people in the village, there are some soldiers, but not enough to fight!

We're in the middle of a counterattack. Lakra, tell the soldiers what's going on and give priority to evacuating the villagers. Ao and I will continue to intercept the avalanche of enemies in the village. Lakra, go with the villagers and deal with the demons that are chasing us.

If the terrain is right, even Ao's army can stop the enemy to some extent. I can also set up traps and such, so the battle in the village will be able to suppress more enemies. Harkdok and his men have not yet arrived. They're probably on foot or horseback. We'll have to ask them to join the fight as soon as they catch up.

It's hard to defend against that many!

"Maybe. Ao, please stay back and cover Lakra.

What are you going to do?

Keep as many enemies in the village as you can and keep fighting. We'll also take out the unique class if we can. It's easier to hide and set traps than on the plains, so we'll be able to fight them.

"That means I'll have to take on that many by myself?

No problem. But you won't be able to hold off the entire enemy. The two of you will have to take care of the leaks.

This is a great way to get the most out of your time and money.

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.

I know. It's a good idea to avoid direct combat with unique classes. We're wasting time, let's get on with it.

Like your compatriots, you consider all possibilities. In this case, I mimicked some of them and thought about the location of traps in advance, assuming that we would fight in the village. He imagined the whole village and compared it with the direction of the enemy soldiers' invasion. There are many lives to protect now, as opposed to protecting individual brethren. ...... That includes my mother. I'm not sentimental enough to give it much meaning, but at least I understand that I should protect her more than a complete stranger.

I'm not so sentimental that it means much to me, but at least I understand that I should protect it better than strangers.

I'm not so sentimental that it means much to me, but at least I understand that I should protect them more than strangers. But the Demon Lord is sending his power to his men. I thought about the reason for this in my own way, and I took it to mean that I should keep fighting as long as possible. But on the plain as it was, I would just be consumed by the mischief, and there was no way that the Demon Lord would approve of me falling in vain. Therefore, I decided to move forward.

"Wofoctrissa, the human village is almost here!

I can see it. But we're so close to the battlefield, even if there are humans, they'll be few and far between. Our task is to create a smoke signal, a proof of our invasion! Naga squad, burn the village and kill every last human!

The Nagas of the squad responded with a roar. All but the second-in-command can't even speak properly due to the Demon Lord's power, but their fighting spirit is unshakable, even after a long period of power release. They invade the village and look for any humans lurking around.

"It stinks. There's no doubt there were humans here a while ago. But ...... they may have been cowed by our oncoming form and fled. Half of you keep moving forward and pursue the humans through the village! The rest of you, search the village for anyone who may have escaped, and burn down the buildings!

The demons under the Demon Lord's power will not be able to give proper orders. But even so, if it's an order to fight, they can guide you to a certain extent even if they don't understand every word. Probably, no one will be able to escape. Since they have not fought a proper battle until now, there are few soldiers who have been seriously injured. If there were, they would have been moved a little further back for proper treatment.

If there were any, they would have been moved a little further back for proper treatment. "Wofoctrisssama, the Orcs led by Mobebadshun and the Ogres led by Tamasha Fozeya seem to have bypassed the village and are heading in the direction the humans fled!

"You thought there were no humans here from the start. If that's the case, we'll have to get out of the village as quickly as possible. Those of you who have completed your reconnaissance should join us!

We'll head straight for the center of the village. It won't take that long if all we want to do is set fire to it. The straighter we go, the faster we might be able to catch up with the humans. One by one, they joined up, and the number of soldiers gradually increased. But something is wrong. What is this strange feeling? ...... Oh, so that's what it is.

How can I help you?

Don't you think the speed of the rendezvous is a bit slow?

Huh, if you ask me, we can't find a single ...... person, so maybe we're just looking too hard?

I'm sure you can't think of any details now that you have the Demon Lord's power. Perhaps it's .......

I backtracked a bit and found a gap between two adjacent buildings that I noticed. Just as you're about to enter the back, your nose tells you. My men are dead up ahead.

"Master Foxtrissa, this is ......!

"Yes, there are beings in the village who wish to intercept us. They're few in number, but they're skilled. Naga squadron! Find the enemy! Do not act alone!

I'll lead my men to search the village. As a creature that has inherited the power of the snake, Naga should have no trouble finding a human lurking in the shadows of a building. It should be, but it can't. The most likely explanation is that the enemy has a good understanding of the Naga's characteristics.

If that's the case, the first thing to do is to figure out what the enemy is up to. I move to the place where my men's corpses are found while keeping an eye on my surroundings. You find the corpse of one of your men disappearing into the dust in a narrow passage between buildings. Looking at the damage to the corpse, it could be ...... poison. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.

...... Again, something doesn't feel right. What is this? I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I've seen it before. Think about it. ...... What is this? It's not good, we're the ones being hunted now!

There are enemies nearby! "Enemies in the vicinity! Further perimeter alert!

I've already lost a few of the men I've had standing around me, even the senior class. Their numbers were being steadily reduced during this short time of searching. Even in the time between these shouts, a few of the intermediate classes have disappeared. Where, where are they attacking from?

You can't rely on your senses, you have to see the enemy's attack directly. Look to the left and right, and listen for noises. Distinguish between the sounds of the Naga's advance and other sounds, and listen for any strange noises. ......! Suddenly, you notice that the sound of a Naga moving has stopped, and you turn your gaze in that direction. The next moment, one of them had chains wrapped around its body, and it was being dragged into the building at a tremendous speed.

It's in the building!

The next moment, he was dragged into the building with tremendous speed. But at the same time, the shouts of the men who had entered the building echoed. You move to a position where you can look inside. There, several Nagas were trapped by chains, with stakes deeply embedded in their throats. The wounds were corroded by a deadly poison that seemed to have spread to their entire bodies in the blink of an eye. Soon after, the captive Naga died and returned to the dust. The chains writhe as if they have a will, and are sucked into the ground, as if to confirm that the captured Naga is dead.

The enemy is a chain wielder. They crawl through the ground, setting traps everywhere--?

When I turned around to warn my men, the second-in-command who was supposed to be there had disappeared. While I was paying attention to the inside of the building! It's not safe to stay in this village. We need to get out of here.

"More numbers!

The moment I was upset by the disappearance of my second-in-command, our numbers were further reduced. No, that's not all. Normally, the other Nagas would still be gathering to him. But they're not. So the enemy is steadily reducing their numbers in all these villages. This is a bad idea. This is a very bad idea.

What's wrong. "What's the matter? Foxtrotissa, your dismay is obvious.

You immediately raise your head at the voice from above you. There is a man hanging from the ceiling of the building with his knees entwined in a chain. His arms are clasped in a huge amount of chains, and he must be the chain master who was attacking us. But is that a human? My instincts as a demon aren't functioning properly. It looks human, but it doesn't feel human. He keeps his cruel and brutal gaze on us, but he doesn't move.

There you are! How dare you show yourself!

It fires a poisonous liquid at us, but the countless chains that appear around us block its attack. It seems that countless chains have already been set up around him. Then order your men to--

"I've already killed your men in the perimeter. They've all got their heads up their asses.

I looked around and saw the arms and tails of several Nagas being dragged into the shadows of the building. There were already no men around him. He's only showing up because he's already ready to go toe-to-toe!

"How dare you, human!

Not so long ago, I would have taken his words with a grain of salt. Now I'm not a human, I'm a demon.

The man's hair and skin color gradually changed. The skin is darker, the hair is darker blue, and the magic power flowing through the skin is getting thicker. The end of the demon race, the end of the humans who have been favored by the demon king. I'm sure he's a member of one of the three demon lords that are enemies of yours,......!

I'm not sure what to do. I'm not sure what to make of that.

I'm not sure what to make of it. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea. I can't move! I'm not sure what to do. The Demon Lord's power has already been activated. And yet--

Foxtrissa, you're mistaken. I didn't show myself to be able to win one-on-one. I showed up because the game was already decided. You're already trapped in my chains.

In his eyes, you can see yourself bound by countless chains. But in reality, you can't see the chains at all. ...... Are you saying that these are the chains that only appear in his eyes and in his vision? It's a great way to get the most out of your time and money.

"Gu, Ga, ......!

I've been taught by my compatriots to misdirect. It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your time and money.

A number of chains are crawling out from the shadows around you. All of them have a stake at the end and are filled with evil magic power. Gradually, gradually, they approach around you, like a swarm of snakes. ......!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

If you had activated your power when you were aware of my presence, or if your instincts had warned you, ...... would have been a pitiful end for a snake monster. But time is of the essence, no need to beg for your life.

A great number of chains flew at him from all directions and pierced his body.
