Chapter 154: The imminent arrival of a large battle
“Milord, this... Did we come too late?” The aide-de-camp took a step back in disbelief, his eyes behind the seams of his helmet turning wide from disbelief.
The scene of a desolate city, no... of ruins filled his vision.
The last rays of the evening sun illuminated the shattered tiles, bricks and collapsed roofs. With the buildings of the city vanishing like hair on a shaved head, an aloft house was nowhere to be found. The raging inferno nibbled away at flesh and limbs, as the rotten smell of corpses permeated the air.
Judging from when the assistance request was sent, the incident must have happened less than half a day ago.
‘Can a few trolls possess such fearsome destructive capabilities?’
“What exactly has happened here?” The aide-de-camp blankly stared at the scene in front of him.
“Get back!” Ramaeu pulled his dazed aide-de-camp towards him with one of his hands and rolled backwards at the same time.
“Eee....”
“Boom!...” Like a cannonball, a massive silhouette fell from the city gate tower with a loud bang.
“Ssstt...” The earth trembled. Amidst the curling smoke, countless small glowing-red eyes swiveled up and down, as a scalp-tingling sound assailed the eardrums of each knight on the scene.
“W...What is that?? A demon?...” Reeling from the shock, the aide-de-camp looked at the massive, half humanoid spider the size of a chariot in front of him. T/his chapter is updated by
The monster, whose appearance gave one a strange and scalp-tingling feeling, caused terror to arise in the knights’ hearts.
Rameau’s complexion turned grave. Faced with this creature of unknown origin, he promptly gave out a command: “Magic riflemen, get into formation and commence attack. Shield bearers, cover them!”
Their officer’s roars had roused up the knights and cleansed the timidness from their hearts. The front team speedily dispersed on both sides, allowing the magic-rifle wielding knights behind them to take aim at the target.
The magic rifles were the product of [magic-release runes] personally inscribed by warlocks and the firearm manufacturing principles of the old era. Their precision might not be high, but they were able to bring about considerable disruption and harm towards demons.
Not only were the costs of creating a devil’s flame rifle extremely high, its construction was also exorbitantly demanding towards the current manufacturing industry. As such, it was very unlikely for common troops to equip them.
“Open fire!”
“Bang, bang, bang...” Bullets shot out from the muzzles like fireworks, leaving a burst of white smoke that lingered around the mouth of the rifles.
They hit the skin of the large spider monster, causing small sparks to splatter out.
Rameau didn’t say a word as he surveyed the completely decrepit Border Town. Suddenly, his pupils shrank.
“...This is bad.”
“Eeeh?” Before he could open his mouth and ask further, the aide-de-camp found himself holding his breath.
“Boom!”
“Tss...”
“Tsss...”
Along with two collapsing sounds at their rear, two massive humanoid spiders similar to the first one fell down from the skies behind the group of knights, blocking the path where they came from.
“Tssss...” And at the same time, scalp-tingling sounds rose and fell in succession inside the city.
Within the ruins, the piercing stares of countless red eyes appeared beneath collapsed roof beams.
Like spring bamboos after rainfall, humanoid spiders of varying body types pushed some rubbles aside and made their way out.
The rosy evening sunlight illuminated their hard and stiff hair and their small swiveling scarlet eyes.
They had noticed the arrival of uninvited guests. Moving their legs about, they slowly formed an encirclement.
The complexion of the aide-de-camp gradually turned pale, while Rameau’s went grave as he tightly grasped onto his scimitar which was still dripping blood.
Their path of retreat had been cut off.
“Milord...That...” Upon seeing the dense encirclement of spider monsters moving towards them, the knights couldn’t help but take a step back.
“...To arms! It’s worth it if we can get at least one of these b*stards, each additional enemy is just consolation on top of that!” Lifting his scimitar up high, Ramaeu shouted and boosted the morale of the soldiers behind him.
“Let’s leave death and life aside and give them what we got!”

Huddled on a clock tower’s spire within Border Town was a tall and sturdy silhouette.
Countless light-purplish light otherworldly in nature flew out from disintegrated body parts and corpse embers and were all absorbed by a mouth on an abdomen belonging to the black silhouette.
Along with the amounts he absorbed, his dark skin gradually turned purple, as small sharp spikes and little black thorns resembling fangs grew out of his arms and face respectively.
The monster opened his blood-stained scarlet eyes that were imbued with madness to stare at the setting sun in the distance.
“The time has come...”
