Episode 10 – The God Demon King (5)
“this way.”
The goblins leading the hunting party were experienced warriors. Although the tribes to which they belonged were not directly mobilized in the great war, they were the ones who steadfastly survived fighting against all kinds of monsters in this barren land that even the same demons did not care about.
In addition, now that the domination is released, stronger and smarter descendants are born. The weapons and armor that flowed in the aftermath of the Great War also became a great strength to them.
“······beast?”
Ordinary monsters were no longer an opponent to them. The goblin warrior who was leading the group tilted his head when he noticed the marks on the floor.
It was clearly the footprint of an animal with clear claw marks. It has found its prey. They soon followed the goblin warrior’s lead, weapon in hand, and slowly pursued the trail.
[They took the bait.]
Of course, I didn’t notice at all that these were someone’s ploys for more certain handling.
That’s how the goblin hunting team went deeper and deeper into the forest and became farther away from the village.
[Ambush begins.]
It soon became a signal flare. The goblins, walking without knowing anything, were soon attacked by enemies they never dared to think of.
“An enemy, an enemy… it is!”
The bewildered goblin warrior drew his sword and aimed at it as the beasts approached them from all sides.
I had a sensitive sense, but I didn’t feel the slightest sign, and the smell was unfamiliar, so I didn’t notice it. From the beginning, the appearance was unfamiliar.
The enemies who attacked them were somehow bizarre and twisted.
“Wolf, wolf…?”
The goblin warrior saw the monsters and thought of a similar race. But it didn’t make any sense. Because no wolf in the world had its entire body covered in hard armor rather than fur.
The light in his eyes flashed through the cracks in the carapace that covered his entire face. I couldn’t feel anything in those indifferently shining eyes. The eyes are the windows to the mind. Even an animal expresses its inner side through its eyes.
However, these mysterious monsters do not have the fighting spirit or the will to kill that a predator should have. As if there was no such thing as emotion, the eyes were just a means of accepting visual information.
“Cheap, wow!”
The goblin warrior, who unknowingly flinched at those eyes, gritted his teeth and raised his fighting spirit. He urged his men, who were frightened like him, to move.
“Kyaaagh!”
The goblins, as simple as they were low in intelligence, soon trembled in fear at the goblin warrior’s urging, screamed, and attempted counterattack at the enemies who surrounded them.
At the same time, those black monsters also showed their teeth and ran forward. The goblins, who had banded together to hold their own camp, collapsed and stumbled helplessly at the attack of the monstrous wolves, which just pushed in using their mass.
“monster······!”
The goblin warrior gritted his teeth and roared. A wolf whose head was pierced by a sword that broke its outer armor was knocked down to the ground, but he couldn’t understand it at all.
The wolf, who pushed through to the end even after being stabbed in the head by his own sword, had the attitude that he was not afraid of pain or death.
[Enemy camp collapsed. Melee induction.]
Either that or not, the Demon King continued to command the troops. He fell into a melee due to the head-to-head charge beyond his imagination, and randomly bit and trampled the goblins, who were beginning to expose many loopholes.
“Key, key it…”
Then, as if the raging storm had passed, only the wretched corpses collapsed and rolled on the ground were left behind. The wolf monsters with broken outer shells also took some damage, but there were more goblin corpses crushed to death on the floor.
In the end, the goblin warrior left alone swung his sword and was wary of the monsters surrounding him. However, the ending has already been decided from the moment they allowed a surprise attack from all sides without knowing anything.
Dozens of wolves surrounding it revealed this. And at the same time, they attacked the frightened goblin warrior from all sides.
“Kyaaagh!!”

No matter how good a warrior is, it’s hard to defeat the majority alone. Even these monsters are willing to suffer and die, and move mechanically only for the purpose of killing the enemy.
The goblin warrior began to be bitten alive and torn to pieces by many beasts greater than himself.
Even objectively, it was a ghastly and terrifying sight.
[As calculated, we succeeded in suppressing it with less than 10% loss.]
“yes? That’s great.”
[Now that we have killed more than 20% of the enemy’s power, we will attack the main base.]
The end of a gruesome and brutal fight. Moving the corpses to be used as food to the nest, and withdrawing the troops who participated in the fight to replenish food, the demon king simultaneously planned the next attack.
And he, who received all these reports, judged the situation based only on what the demon king reported. Thanks to that, he could think freely.
The demon king chose war under his own direction, but it was a story from a different world that he couldn’t even see himself anyway. No matter how horribly the hunted goblin warrior died, no matter how horribly the goblin colony was destroyed, he was simply told that the enemy was dead.
[20 Orcs and Alphas, 50 Moonlight Three-eyed Wolf and Alphas. Attacks 158 identified enemies with a total of 70 troops. If it is not enough, the remaining 70 units prepared as a follow-up will be added.]
The Demon King didn’t put all his strength into it. Efficiency by thorough calculation. Pursuing the extreme efficiency, he always formed the optimal force. It wasn’t that he didn’t consider the variable, so the demon king intuitively sensed his victory.
“Then it would be better to attack as soon as possible? If the group that went hunting during the day still doesn’t come back, they’ll be suspicious.”
[That’s right. All corps, advance right now.]
As he washed his hair, he spoke lightly to his mobile phone standing on the sink, and a fairly large group began marching toward a single point across the forest.
***
“…”
“Family, chapter.”
“The wind is not good. Have those who went out hunting not returned yet?”
The goblin chief looked up at the red moon rising high from the watchtower. The chief furrowed his brow as the cool wind blew. The goblin next to him just shook his head and giggled stupidly.
‘Was it really the right decision?’
The chieftain’s eyes sank. When I visited this village the day before, the king’s men caught my eye. The king’s men adorned with fancy clothes and accessories. They were the ones who directly betrayed and fought against the demon king centering on the goblin king.
The saintess received something in exchange for betrayal. Perhaps that’s why, their strength is incomparable to those who have been freed from the curse of dominance. To be honest, I doubted whether it was the same goblin species.
‘It’s too late to regret it now.’
The chief immediately lowered his head.
It’s just that they didn’t fight directly, but in the end, they betrayed the existing order and the demon king as well. I didn’t feel particularly guilty. I didn’t even regret my choice.
In any case, the beneficiary was seeing themselves. The weak are weeded out and die. It is the natural law of the world. And since surviving is about being strong, the chief thought that the demon king was just defeated because he was weak.
“The enemy is.”
“what?”
But then. The chieftain, who was about to descend the watchtower, heard the blank voice of the goblin next to him. The startled chief turned away hastily.
“…that’s what it is.”
The chieftain’s yellow eyes widened in disbelief. Enemies were really approaching the village.
Even the enemies were heterogeneous and grotesque. The enemies, who had come out of the woods and were slowly marching here bathed in moonlight, did not seem to be mere beasts.
“Emergency… Emergency! Everyone, prepare for battle!!”
Seeing countless glowing red dots in the dark, the chief immediately shouted with a trembling voice and summoned all troops.
‘······The Demon King, no, you are the Demon God. Please save us.’
The chief saw those mysterious monsters approaching and found their god without realizing it.
Of course, after begging like that, I snorted inwardly. It was laughable to cry out to God now on the subject of a traitor.
“Shoot the arrow!”
At the chief’s command, arrows with steel arrowheads freely crossed the air. The arrows were instantly lodged in the bodies of the enemies. The armor borrowed from the soldier ant’s outer armor was not enough to defeat steel.
“These guys…….”
However, seeing the enemies who hit all the arrows without resistance, the chief gnashed his teeth. Like an arrow stuck in a tree, the enemy just moves forward without the slightest hesitation or hesitation.
“Keep shooting!”
[Distance Reached. Power rush.]
Ignoring the goosebumps all over his body, the chieftain who used the bullsh*t shouted, and at the same time these black monsters started running forward all at once.
Hundreds of battles on a moonlit night. The fence made firmly to prevent the invasion of the rough and vicious devils was obviously strong, but the Demon King’s army, running like crazy, made their bodies a kind of stepping stone with sophisticated and integrated movements, enabling the follow-up troops to jump over the fence. .
“What is this…!”
Without the slightest deterrence, the barrier he trusted was breached, and the chieftain’s face turned white. But now there is no time to panic. The chief ordered his armed men to charge.
[The hand-to-hand combat begins.]
It is now a battle of pure strength. The goblins with their spears and swords gathered together under the command of the chieftain, throwing their spears and stabbing their swords at the approaching enemy.
“can win. Stay seated!”
The chieftain saw potential in the opponent’s movement, which he stopped for an instant. He had learned how to deal with beasts. He was obviously bigger and stronger, but he had no choice but to be pushed back by several spear sticks stabbed in succession.
‘Those guys are the problem.’
In such a situation, the chief saw the Orc-Based Demon Lords running amok and gritted his teeth. The goblins were falling like straw at their blows, walking on two legs like themselves and fighting with weapons in their hands.
To defeat it, the chieftain had no choice but to raise his staff.
“Squirt!”
And it manifested its own magical power. The reason why the chief is inherently different from other goblins. Now, the evidence is pouring out in the form of strong spells, rushing towards the enemies.
[This is the magic of the demons. Thanks to that, a variable has occurred.]
An explosion erupted from the cracked floor, scattering sharp stone fragments everywhere. Dozens of demon lords fell in one blow with power beyond the defense of the outer armor.
The Demon King watched it carefully. It was the moment when I saw the real power of the demons, whom I had only heard about until now.
[Sends follow-up troops.]
Of course, since there was already information on special powers such as magic or witchcraft, this amount of variable was not calculated. Satisfied with the newly acquired data, the Demon King immediately added dozens of troops on standby.
