Chapter 682: Volcano

Translator: i the rather long distance between the Mist Kingdom and Sharal, and that our army on the way to reinforce Sharal was stalled multiple times by beast ambushes, I already expected what I would see when I finally arrived in Sharal

“…What a majestic scene…”

In the distance, I could see an erupting volcano Large aether to forh all the s froround

The powerful eruptions caused the ash to reach all the way to the stratosphere The larger chunks of ash would fall doith the force of reat distance, we could sense the majestic force of nature

But, no inally, it was likely that nothing reion is finished…”

We had been delayed by ambushesbeasts added together hadn’t been as numerous as the first beast ambush It was evident that the later ambushes were only meant to stall us But, if those beast ambushes were all we had to deal with, we should have arrived last night already, before that volcano akened

However, the devils took advantage of the snowy, mountainous terrain and created several avalanches and blew up two bridges, forcing us to take longer paths around This was a typical devil tactic—using anyyou a chance to directly fight them

When our army was repeatedly stalled, we alreadythis volcanic eruption before us…

“Kakagar, I shall be sure to burn some incense for you on your death anniversary next year”

“…So volcanoes really erupted here Roland Jinxer, how do you feel?”

[Ding! You have received the title ‘Roland Jinxer’ Equipping this title will allow you to usedistance karood if it doesn’t start a fire’, ‘This volcano definitely won’t erupt’, and other such special attacks]

I helplessly gazed at the sky This clearly wasn’t because of s This was all clearly because of our enemy’s scheme which successfully slowed us down at every step How could this be the fault of h you did skim off a little too much money for yourself over the past few years, since you’re still a descendant of the Mist, I shall take revenge for you—”

“Kakagar isn’t dead Our people have already located hih he’s in rather wretched condition, he’s still quite energetic”

I had just wanted to say a feords into set the atmosphere, yet I ardly interrupted midway The scary volcanic scene in the distance made me feel that it was quite unlikely for anyone to survive

“How did they survive?”

“…They were originally prepared for death already, but last night, the beast stampede voluntarily opened up a path for them to leave Someone even shouted that they were allowed to leave, so the result was that everyone really did leave the castle in a single night”

I was astounded to hear this So like this was possible?

“Wait a moment, this means that the beast stampede spared theht, they could have persisted until we arrived?”

“When calculating the time, yes, they could have persisted until we arrived It see arrival was the main reason why the enemy spared them”

I was rendered so here as quickly as possible had indeed been useful, after all At the very least, the illusion face devils controlling the beast sta the people of Sharal <sup>1</sup> so that they could take control over this territory faster

And with ar’s personality, it see at this chance to have his life spared, even if he could guess that reinforce over spilled ood that at leastwell? Is he all depressed frooverne before he finally gave me the answer
