Audience

The Lizardress of battle

SinceSouei four days had passed

Toreat casualties thus far, they’ll ain

Orc’s attacks have intensified to the extreme

Depending only on their resources, the passageways are overfloith orcs Orcs were affected little by the labyrinth, and h it

By placing traps along the passageways, they htly

But still, thanks to the labyrinth the lizardes eways are still usable

They’ve been alternating the squads that fight the orcs ed the enemy

Since this battle is under his direct co conceited

Because the reinforce, because there is hope, everyone is so by

In reality, those who have fought the orcs were surprised by their strength

These orcs orlds stronger than the usual

Right now, a single orc can challenge up to three lizard

This is, of course, the result of the Orc Lord’s command

The Head also strictly ordered that those injured must immediately switch with out Since, should the injury result in death, the orcs will becoer

Carefully, and without error thus far, they have beenthe defense line

And only a day left

When the reinforcements arrive, they’ll probably be able to make use of the terrain to crush every orc

At the very least, they could at least alternate with the members stationed at the most important defense points

Thus filling his head ishful thinking, the Head relaxed a bit

That’s when it came

The news of Gabil’s return…

Gabil was indignant

What’s with this! The prideful Lizards! He was going blind froer

However, all would soon be fine He had returned, and, like a proper Lizardht with pride

With that thought, he headed to the Head

「Well done, Gabil I presuoblin’s support?」

「Ay! We’ve been joined by 7,000 warriors」

「Is that so… with this, we’ll somehow make it」

「In that case, let’s engage the enemy at once!」

After reporting thus to the Head, he prepared himself for batle

Now that he had returned, he could not permit the orcs’ selfish actions Surely the head had been waiting for him to return

However,

「Hmm? No, the time hasn’t come yet While you weren’t here, we had been offered an alliance They will be arriving to, ill be striking against the orcs!」

Cos the head had said

“What? The head was not waiting for me?”

That thought let to dissatisfaction, which further worsened Gabil’s mood

To depend on soainst some lowly orcs…

「Head, if you send o!」

His indignation growing, he was hoping to vent it on the enemies However,

「No We shall fight tomorrow! You must be tired, so rest up」

Conored

Gabil’shiivable

「Head, no, father! Stop this foolishness! You seeone senile, you just don’t see the truth」

「What was that? Gabil, what are you planning!」

Up until now, he was holding back in respect of his father

In fact, there were many admirable qualities that he possessed So Gabil was obedient

However, he refused to recognize Gabil, and that Gabil could not forgive

His time had finally come, that’s all

So nodding once, he shot his subordinates the signal

「Father, your time has come to an end From now on, I am the new Lizardmen’s Head!」

Gabil loudly declared

At this declaration, the goblins noisily ran into the Head’s chamber

Aruards

Gabil’s subordinates, the handpicked elite, also readied theoblins

「Gabil, what is theof this?!」

Unable to understand the situation, the Head raised a panicked voice How unusual

However, that only pleased Gabil’s superiority complex

「Father, good work up until now! Leave the rest to me, and enjoy your retirement!」

His subordinates then disaruards

And then, Gabil took the head’s, no, his father’s spear into his hands The spear, a ic item called the Water Vortex Spear, is the symbol of the Lizardmen themselves

An iteest lizard for Gabil

And looking at his father and the guards,

「Leave the rest to me! You’ll probably be restrained until the war is over, but bear with it, okay?」

So he called out

「Wait, Gabil! Stop this selfishness! At least, wait until tomorrow!!!」

Ignoring his father’s pleas,

「What an eyesore Take him away!」

So he ordered

Of course, he had no intentions of having hih

Gabil needed to personally beat the head

Of course, as a new hero who’d stand atop of all the lizardmen, such an event was necessary

Surely then his father would recognize his strength and praise him

The iddy

The new head, taking along his goblins, proceeded to take command over the lizardmen They will soon hear about the usurpation anyways

And once they acknowledge hiht

Gabil could not iine the possibility of defeat

His father’s warning were completely wasted on him

Fro the opening act of the play

The ones he found in the prison were the same

Drunk on their praise, Gabil enjoyed sitting on the throne

His time had finally arrived

He had cos like an orc invasion

What a…

The Head was torret

Don’t be hasty! So he was told many times before And this was the situation he had found himself in

He was certain in his control over his brethren

But to have been betrayed by his own son…

This is very bad

If this goes on, the lizard, and will meet certain demise

Making up his mind, he looked at the Guard Captain
