The Death Mage That Doesnt Want A Fourth Time 19 (1/2)
The large village of Orcs ruled by the noble Orc Bugogan was peaceful at night
To be more descriptive, the screams of the captive Ghoul woan’s sons, Bubobio, could be seen executing Goblins who had made small mistakes
However, these were everyday occurrences and nobody paid the that wasn’t an everyday occurrence such as an attack by other monsters
Peaceful days were e ruled by a noble Orc
When creating villages in Devil’s Nests, weak monsters such as Goblins and Kobolds tend to do so in places that are difficult to spot froroups of es boldly on the earth’s surface
That is because they generally have no need to worry about the enee
Theand the evil Gods that had appeared fro in harmony with other monsters Some races even kill and eat other members of their own race
However, monsters do not dare to attack monsters that are clearly superior to the suicide For example, most monsters wouldn’t dare try and mess with a monster like a noble Orc
Other an’s presence and avoid the village
There were incidents of inferiorthee, however
Watchtowers had been built along the outer wall and boielding Goblins and Kobolds were stationed on the
「Gyih」
「Kihihi」
However, the guards in the watchtoere not very diligent with their work They were confident in the wall’s durability
Severed logs had been driven into the ground in a row to forher than they appeared and resistant to fire This was because the logs used to build the wall came from plant-monsters called Ents
The as strong enough to withstand a ra a stronger defense than a stone ould Rather than defend such a wall, the Goblins werewhen the Orcs would next hand them a used woman
But that was a mistake
Just a little before the h in the sky, the outer wall that was supposed to be unyielding gave a creak The startled Goblins readied their bows in panic, but there weren’t any targets for their arrows to be seen But every single log that
What on earth was this?! Right before the confused Goblins’ eyes, the wall transformed
『GYIIIIIIIH!』
『OOOOOOOOOHN!』
They transformed into Wood Goleh-pitched creaking of wood being split and roars that sounded like those of vengeful ghosts
「Gyih Gyahiih!」
As the outer wall that was supposed to protect the village from outside enemies turned into outside enemies itself, the watchtowers that the Kobolds had built fell to pieces and the Goblins were thrown into the ground
The Goblins should have been vigilant However, it was also true that even if they had been vigilant, there was nothing they could have done
「The first stage is a success For some reason, it was hard to have e to create Wood Golems」
Vandalieu nodded as he confirmed that the difficult-to-break outer wall had joined his own forces
He had done the sa as when he had turned the outer walls of Evbejia into Rock Goleic Mastery】skill and his【Goleone more efficiently this time
「Well, they’re still only Wood Golems」
「However, destroying the ould have taken ti from every direction; it is not bad at all」
Zadiris was holding a staff and wearing battle garments decorated with feathers As she said, the preee had only Goblins and Kobolds, this alone h to secure victory
「BUGOOOOOOOH!」
However, the ed s when their blood rushed into their heads Though the bizarre situation of the outer wall turning into attacking Golems would render normal soldiers unable toback immediately
Making the decision on their own to charge in with their heavy weapons was a foolhardy action, but it was far more proble around aimlessly
「But those Wood Gole up better than I’d expected」
「They’re harder than they look, huh Van, is this the power of Death-Attribute Magic as well?」
The Ghouls were unaware that the outer wall had been built from Ents and were as hard as iron As they saw the Wood Gole better than they had expected, they assuot fired up
「Now then GAAAARRRRRR!」
Using the howls that Ghouls use to coroup The contents of these orders were『Each group is to begin the attack! Elis and secure the women!』
「GAAAH!」
「GRRR!」
The Ghoul warriors bared their fangs and growled to say affire whose outer wall had been removed
They were using equipment that D-class adventurers would be envious of In addition, Vandalieu and Zadiris had applied supportive spells on them
Ghouls and Orcs were generally about even in strength, but with the equipe
「GROOOOOH!」
A an enormous battleaxe that one could tell was incredibly sharp with a single glance, closing in on an Orc that had cut down a Wood Golem with its two-handed axe
The Orc’s armor looked unusually simple, but this individual was likely an Orc General, as its body was bigger than noraro’s
「GAAAAH!」
「buyoh?!」
The Orc’s protruding nose was slaaro’s shi+eld that it caved in, and then its belly was sliced sideways, sending blood and organs scattering everywhere
The Orc General was Rank 5, saaro Normally, the battle wouldn’t be decided so easily But there was a large difference in their strengths due to the training that Vigaro did every day that wasn’t reflected in his level or Rank, the support spells, the effects of the【Strengthen Followers】skill and ic Iteiven him
The effects of his everyday training, the【Strengthen Followers】skill and the Magic Item wouldn’t decrease in effectiveness over time, but the effects of the supportive spells would wear off To prevent that, the caster has to re-cast the spell, but Mana was not unlimited
「Now then, I’ll replenish your Mana【Spirit Body Transformation】」
This is where Vandalieu, who possessed a near-infinite amount of Mana, came in He used【Spirit Body Transformation】on both of his hands, which branched out like the roots of a plant to connect to the bodies of theZadiris
「Kuh」
「Ngh」
「Aah!」
Sethat last sound out of his ic that he learned in Zadiris’s village
「【Mana Transfer】」
The ic spells Mana Transfer
It is a spell that transfers colorless Mana that has not been stained with any elelance, it see the transfer process, most of the Mana is wasted
The efficiency of Mana transfer can be increased based on the caster’s relationshi+p with the target, the caster’s ical coet, the race of the target and so on, but on average, it is about five percent There have been recorded cases where tho trusted each other and had good ical coinally supplied amount, with a transfer rate of a hundred and twenty percent But there were many cases where the a amount
And currently, there were no discovered methods to consciously increase the transfer efficiency
For this reason, it is very oftenit to someone else If a hundred Mana is spent to transfer only five Mana, this is the natural conclusion
However, Vandalieu possessed over 100,000,000 Mana
To transfer a hundred Mana, he would spend two thousand To transfer a thousand Mana, he would spend twenty thousand To transfer ten thousand Mana, he would spend two hundred thousand He possessed an areat that he wouldn’t hesitate to do this
「This is the Mana version of burning ht」
「Boy, I do not think that one can burn gold and silver coins Well, anyway Everyone, use the Mana that the boy has given you to your heart’s content!」
「Yes! Here we go, everybody!」
「I’!」
And so the Ghoul es whose Mana had been replenished and the warriors ere guarding theed in first Vandalieu saw the aboard Sam, who had been on standby at his side
「Now then, we’ll be doing hit-and-run attacks like we planned, so I’ the rest to you I don’t think you can see them, but I have left Familiars attached to everyone, so please call for ency」
「Mhmm, leave it to us」
The Ghoul King Vandalieu’s role had been to unite the Ghouls with the【Death-Attribute Charthen Followers】skill But it had been decided that once the battle started, he would be conducting hit-and-run attacks with Sam
He didn’t have the ability to lead, and he didn’t have a wide field of vision overlooking the battlefield, either Instead, he did have the ability to cast the【Magic Absorption Barrier】, a Death-Attribute spell capable of effectively turning the Orc Mages, a the most problematic of the Orcs, into wooden dummies
The best way to use this ability was to form a hit-and-run squad that made use of Sam’s mobility around the battlefield
Though Vandalieu had the feeling that he was doing the h
He was part of a hit-and-run squad In onist who then plays a very iet fired up?
「Sam, move out」
『Certainly』
The spirit-body horses neighed as Sa in the carriage, while Bone Bear, Bone Bird and the others ran alongside the carriage
The hit-and-run squad that would be very problee
For the Orcs and Bugogan who ruled over the completely outside their expectations It is appropriate to say that they believed that surprise attacks were so that they themselves used, not received
Bugogan had considered the Ghouls and huerous and moved so that they would not find out about him
That hy unmotivated Goblins and Kobolds had been stationed as lookouts while the Orcs were either using the captured wo lazy
Having been awoken by the sound of Wood Golee and the screams of Goblins and Kobolds, the Orcs ju for orders fro where they stood
An Orc General who had coincidentally happened to be outside the village tried to gather the Orcs around hiaro
This only increased the Orcs’ panic, and since their Orc , there was no way that the slave Goblins and Kobolds could anized fashi+on In fact, s of the Orcs’ clubs and axes
In the midst of this, the ones who recovered froathered other Kobolds to fores at their center, slipped through the Wood Gole in order to try to ambush the Ghouls
「GAAAAAAAH!」
「GYAOOOOOH!」
But they were attacked by the Ghoul shock troops Using their arround even when standing upright, they ran on all fours like gorillas to rush in
The male Ghouls with their lion’s heads looked quite co like this, but with their th】skill, their speed was equivalent to a war horse’s charge
「UOOWAN!」
Against this speed, the only thing the Kobolds could do was fire a single arrow each However, they had alht armor that didn’t hinder movement, and the supportive spells cast on the Ghouls by Zadiris and the other es
「GYAIN?!」
The Ghouls closed in on the Kobolds and swung their prided claws,these hindrances down Even the Kobold Chief that had been in charge was unable to resist as it was slaughtered
「GAAAAH!」
With their bodies stained in the blood of their enemies, the Ghouls roared as they attacked even deeper into the village To hu but bloodthirsty beasts, but those who understood the battle language of the Ghouls would know that this roar meant,「We’ve co for their precious women
『Bocchan, there is a group of Goblins ahead!』
「Push –」
『Certainly! I shall push through them!』
A three-horse carriage pulled by blue-white horses charged into the Orc village The carriage was equipped with spikesit into a chariot capable of attack
That alone was quite i was the coach, a white-blue face and a grin that exposed his teeth
「Gyabuh!」
「Gyahyiih?!」
「Gyugeh! Gegegegegeh!」
The Goblin Soldiers and Knights readied their spears and shi+elds to try and stop the carriage, but they were unable to stop its ed by spikes and caught up in the carriage’s wheels
Nore as well, but nue, so there wasn’t even a scratch
『Fuhahahaha! This is truly exhilarating, Bocchan!』
『Father, you’re getting carried away, you know?』
『Yay! Go, go!』
『Don’t you get carried away too, Rita!』
