Chapter 72

"What are those insects?"

The man wearing the orc fighter armor growled like a beast. He was looking at Burren and Runaan, who were running down to Cebu village.

"Th-they are Zieghart trainees."

The Red Eye Demon, who was wearing a mask with an eye drawn on it, knelt and answered.

"I'm sure you said that those brats had returned."

Murderous intent could be felt from his voice. It was completely different from his usual calm and composed voice.

"I-I'm sure they left. I came back after confirming that fact..."

"That means somebody among them had realized you were tailing them. What an idiot."

The man raised his feet and smacked his shoulder.

"Keuh!"

The masked man groaned without moving, despite one of his shoulders being crushed.

"Tsk."

The man clicked his tongue violently, then stood on the boulder.

The Zieghart trainees had already arrived at the village and were running towards the wooden fence that was being broken through.

"Are those two the ones?"

Runaan and Burren killed the orcs that were breaking the fences in a single strike. The man breathed out roughly while watching them.

"P-probably not. There was a black-haired girl who was better than them."

"Where is she?"

"Judging from the way she can't be found anywhere, she must be hiding somewhere and watching."

"Hmm..."

The man wearing the orc fighter armor crossed his arms and looked down on the village.

"They fight well."

The Zieghart trainees drew a line, as if they made a formation, and were killing all the orcs that went over the wooden fence.

"They aren't going to be enough to break through."

Looking back at the masked man, he gestured with his chin.

"Send the green demons."

"Pardon? Didn't you say that you wouldn't meddle with Ziegharts...?"

"Do you think they came back here without doing anything after noticing you? They must've sent a reinforcement request to the branch office, and it's too late to stop it. The best course of action right now is to finish the job here as soon as possible, then leave after burning everything to the ground."

"...Understood."

The masked man nodded, disappearing into the shadows.

"Hmm..."

The man went down the mountain while flexing his wrist. A smile appeared on his mouth that could be seen slightly.

"To have returned despite having been spared, your luck must've ended after being chosen by the Ziegharts."

***

Slash!

Burren cut the orc running towards him in half, then jumped over the half-destroyed wooden fence.
