Chapter 18 : The ghost of the battlefield (4)

‘The weather is fucking good . ’

A 35 year old veterans soldier Tarem looked at the blue sky while lying on the ground .

‘Damn . To suffer a complete victory from some humans . ’

He touched his hard chin and frowned .

A long and terrible blade scar below his chin .

‘If the scar was at least 1cm deeper, I would have died . ’

Grind .

He grinds his teeth .

‘Bastards from the Byron kingdom…… . ’

His four canine teeth shine acutely .

‘I will certainly take revenge with putting my honor of being an orc warrior in the line . ’

The orc warrior Tarem, that came from Crack village located at the south of Byron kingdom forced an absolute defeat in the fight against the Byron kingdom last winter .

And because of that, he and his tribesmen could only flee to the south .

When he thought that it was all the end, he met that guy .

‘Supreme commander of the orc alliances in the north of Rinse kingdom, Rak . ’

Rak gathered the monsters and the orcs that were spread in the northern parts of the Rinse kingdom and was preparing to attack Pedian’s plain .

The truth of the monsters and the orcs attacking Pedian’s plain that was in the northern parts of Rinse kingdom was something even Tarem knew about .

Rak lent a hand to the excellent warrior Tarem .

A tempting proposal .

Tarem grabbed Rak’s hand without any hesitation .

And he went to the southern parts of Pedian plain with the warriors he was leading and some warriors Rak lent him .

‘We raid the human villages in Pedian’s plain and secure food and weapons . ’

When they secured a plentiful amount, they will return to their hometown and get revenge to the guys of Byron kingdom .

This was Tarem’s plan .

When his revenge towards the guys of Byron kingdom was burning .

‘Huh?’

He heard a strange sound .

Sweeee .

The sound of something sharp cutting through the air .

Tarem just raised his head while still lying on the ground .

“Ugh!”

At that moment, his eyes widen as as if it rips .

The black arrows that cover the blue sky .

“Damn!”

Tarem grabbed his shield and shrinked his body .

“It’s the enemy! The enemy!”

A loud voice .

Sounds of getting up was heard everywhere .

However, the actions of these guys that just got up from their dreams was sloppy .

Shoot shoot shoot shoot!

The arrow rain drenches the ground .

“Kugh!”

“Grr . ”

Dying sounds roll the ground .

And the arrow rain continued once more .

And after that, a sound shaking the ground .

Dudududu .

As he extended his head beyond the shield he saw the charging cavalrymen between the dust cloud .

“Prepare for battle! Prepare for battle!”

He yelled with all of his strength, but the orcs and the monsters couldn’t think straight .

‘Damn! For us to be the ones suffering a surprise attack instead!’

Tarem grinded his teeth and took out his well polished chinese war sword .

“Bring it! You humans! I will show you the strength of an orc warrior!”

A strong yell shakes the battlefield .

Hit hit hit hit!

The cavalrymen charge through while bouncing off the monsters .

“Ugh!”

Tarem swung his war sword towards a cavalryman that was passing next to him .

Swish .

His blade cuts through the body and passes through .

Heeng!

The cavalryman that was charging through really well fell to the ground .

Tarem scattered the white dust and charged through the cavalrymen that was on the ground .

“Die!”

The tip of his war sword cuts through the air .

“Kugh . ”

The cavalryman couldn’t even evade it and just closed his eyes firmly .

Then, a spear appeared passing through the dust .

Kang!

A clear sound of metal .

The war sword bounces off after being deflected by the spear .

“Kugh . ”

Tarem grinded his teeth and turned his head to look at the owner of that spear .

A childish face and a short physique .

At least, for Tarem, he seemed to be a novice .

“A fucking novice dares to!”

Tarem spun his war sword and slashed it down fiercely .

At that moment, the spear that was standing firmly bends like a stream of water and moves crossway .

“Hup!”

Tarem gulped some air at the unexpected movements and raised his shield .

Tang!

The spear collides with the shield and a heavy noise is heard .

The spear that bounced off the shield spins and flies directed to Tarem’s back .

“Damn . ”

Tarem bent down and evaded the spear .

However, the movements of the spear still continued like a stream of water .

‘His face is that of a new novice but his skills are that of a veteran soldier!’

Tarem took some air and charged through .

‘I just have to get inside his range . ’

The spear was long .

And because of that, it was effective in a long range, but it was difficult to use it in close range .

Spat!

The spear passes through after slicing the wrist .

‘Kugh . ’

He felt a sharp pain, but he grinded his teeth and endured it .

‘I just have to close the distance!’

A bold charge .

Because of that, he could close the distance to that he wanted .

No, it was even closer to what he wanted .

And that was because the novice was charging through along with him .

“Huh?”

The guy that suddenly appeared in front of him .

Tarem got perplexed at the distance that was even hard to swing his war sword .

At that time, a sharp feeling was felt in his chest .

He slightly looked down to look at his left chest .

And there was a short sword the size of a palm stabbed there .

“Fu, fuck . Impossible . ”

Curses flow out .

Tarem raised his head and looked at the eyes of that novice spearman fixedly .

That novice soldier smiled brightly and turns his short sword angularly .

Kugugu .

The sound of his bones grinding and his flesh tearing .

“Kuaaaaaa!”

A yell flows out from Tarem’s mouth .

Hit .

The novice spearman hits Tarem’s abdomen with his right leg .

And the short sword that was stabbed in his chest gets pulled out and blood flows .

Fall .

Tarem that fell to the ground .

Light disappears from his eyes and the blue sky becomes darker .

‘Am I going to die?’

Then, a sharp spear flies through his eyes .

‘Fuck . ’

The curse he couldn’t spit rolls in his mouth .

Stab .

The spear pierced Tarem’s face accurately .

The owner of that spear, the novice spearman mumbled with casually .

“To call me a fucking novice . To a person that roamed the battlefield for 20 years . ”

Novice spearman .

That was no other than Roan .

‘We are winning one sidedly . ’

The flow of the battlefield flowed to the side of the subjugation team .

The army of the 5 thousand monsters that was composed by orcs and goblins still couldn’t get ahold of themselves and couldn’t properly resist .

‘I can’t fall back here . ’

Just because it was a one sided flow, it didn’t mean that he couldn’t accumulate merits .

He also had to show something that would stand above the others .

‘On top of that, this isn’t all of their army . ’

Grip .

Roan gripped his spear and charged through .

Tat!

He charged through the messy battlefield .

Spat!

The spear pierces through the air and dances .

The spear stabs or hits the monsters without stop .

Attack and defense .

The beauty of spearmanship that lets you do both of those things at the same time .

Roan was moving without stop for his spear to not move unnaturally .

Slash! Stab! Spat!

“Kugh!”

“Kgh!”

“Kek!”

The blade of the spear slices and the tip of the spear pierces .

For those guys that were closing in, he hit them and kicked them and after he made some distance, he pierced their necks with his spear .

“Wow . Look at that guy . ”

“Isn’t he the newcomer from the 13th squad?”

“What spearmanship is like that for a newcomer bastard?”

The soldiers that slashed down the orcs and were taking some breaths looked at Roan and mumbled .

Spearmanship that’s concise and flows without stop .

It was hard to think that it was spearmanship from a newcomer soldier that has just finished his training .

“Isn’t he better than our squad commander?”

“Last time, I saw the skills of the commander of the 5th squad, and I think that it resembles just like his . ”

“Wow! Did you see? He hit the chin of a monster that was charging in with the end of his spear and after he spins, he smashes its head!”

“I saw . I saw . Those skills aren’t something that a mere newcomer should be able to do . ”

The soldiers say .

And that was the same for the soldiers of the 13th squad .

A proud expression appears in their faces .

‘A lucky bastard entered our 13th squad . ’

‘Kukuku . Look at how dumbfounded the guys from the other squad are . ’

‘The guy that shows himself the most in this battlefield is Roan . ’

But of course, there was also Pierce that was confronting the orcs with quite good skills, but that guy gave the feeling of rather than doing battle, he was training .

An excessively clean feeling .

‘If you don’t kill them like Roan, it means that you don’t have that much of a motivation .

Squad commander Tane smacked his lips as if it was regretful .

But actually, that was because the kinds of orcs were a really easy opponent for him, but there was no one that knew this truth .

No, there was just one person that knew it . Roan .

‘He seems to have come to an excursion . ’

Roan looked at Pierce that was massacring the orcs in a relaxed way and mumbled .

‘The kinds of orcs should be really easy opponents for you . ’

He took in a breath after disposing of two goblins that were charging at him easily .

‘But where is Glenn?’

Roan frowned .

Because he couldn’t see Glenn among the 13th squad members .

Roan, that was searching for Glenn in that battlefield, frowned .

That guy seemed to have swept away to the front lines when the cavalrymen and the infantry charged through .

‘Damn! Not there!’

Roan bit his lower lips and kicked the ground .

Tane, that looked at Roan leaving the ranks, shouted to him .

“Roan! Where are you going!”

Roan replied without even looking back .

“I’m going to rescue Glenn!”
