Vol 2 Chapter 4 (1/2)
2-4 Old Soldier’s Advice
At evening
In a place near the thieves’ hideout, at the top of the hill not visible to the highway
Some tents can be seen in the sher than the one in Kaisa village
There is no doorway, it seeic
The height is 35 meters
After the explanation, I decided to receive the commission from the Information Bureau
Su Nanashi+-san’s narration, there are for important points in today’s mission
First, break out the kidnapped people in the hideout, delay the thieves’ awareness as e situation
The thieves placed a guard in a simple lookout stand, only a few people can be e group of people
Second, it’s probable that the abducted people will be transported at night, so we only have right now to make a surprise attack
The theives’ vigilance will be higher in the middle of transportation
Three, rescue the agent of the Information Bureau, keep the thieves confined if we are discovered, or supress them otherwise
Four, capture and ain information about the noble
However, not to the extent that their lives will be in danger
In case a third party is discovered, “,” or so Nanashi+-san said
When I heard that we didn’t have to kill the thieves, I felt pathetically relieved
I don’t have to kill humans
The nu Nanashi+-san is five, while the coroup is four people in total— me, Neil-san, Dan-san who’s a dwarf (B-rank) and Mina-san who’s an elf (C-rank)
Will we be alright with just four people…?
Mina-san is female and Dan-san is male
On the other hand, the thieves number about 40 people and the abducted people were believed to be about 20 people
The difference in nuh considering the ranks”
But thinking about the common sense in my previous life, the difference is just unreasonable…
“Ooh, Redhead-neechan Maybe you’re scared?”
Dan-san asked in a whisper while s down his beard
Mina-san, who is holding a h the conversation
“That’s rude, Dan We already did the introductions so call her by her name properly Sorry, Cathia-san”
Surprisingly, Dan-san and Mina-san are husband and wife
Dan-san is 60 years old and even if she doesn’t look like it, Mina-san is around 30 (she didn’t tell her exact age) They don’t look like a married couple at all
This world’s dwarves, elves and werebeasts have the same lifespan as humans
Though they possess longevity inthem personally
Dan-san has a 150 c, white beard
Mina-san has a se 160cm
“No, but I’m definitely nervous”
I also responded in a whisper
“There’s no need to think too hard You just need to crush ten people while protecting the abducted guys”
Dan-san said while shouldering his hammer
It’s indeed a dwarf’s equipment
His way of speaking co about me?
“Uhet discovered if you talk too much-ssu”
Neil-san drew our attention
Judging froth of his weapon, it appears to be a bastard sword
Silence ruled the place for a while
I braced ain and prepared to move anytime
Right then, Neil-san exclaimed in a low voice
“Guys! It’s the signal-ssu!”
Neil-san pointed ahead where a s in the air
I began to dash single-mindedly
People’s lives are at stake here
I saw a part of the earth wall collapsing while I ran
Over there!
Inside the mud wall, I joined the Infor their escape near the hole I made in the mudwall
According to the information, women and children are the priority
I don’t see anyone injured
Did we make it in time?
Without a pause, the thieves appeared with heavy footsteps and panicking appearance
They’re holding weapons but there arethat they caears are not put on properly
I need to buy time for the prisoners to escape
“Right here! Come at me!”
Drawing my sword, I deliberately made flames shoot out from it
Froic and Aura cannot be used at the same time…
“This woic from sword!”
Alright, they took the bait!
Matching the baited thieves rushi+ng forward, I let Aura build up inside my body and made it erupt
The enemy’s sas cut into two by my black sword,
“E-eh!?”
Then I bashed the thief’s solar plexus using the handle of the e in my left hand
One down!
The surrounding thieves watched while feeling shaken
It’s a chance
A, I aimed at the comparatively older and well-dressed thief
If eous
I set a loered fire in front of the o around the rear when he leaned back in surprise
I drove a blow into his scruff using the e’s handle
Eh, I really don’t need this dagger…
Let’s put it away
“Bo-boss! Hang in there! This bitchhh!”
