I AM THE KING

CHAPTER 6. THE FIRST BATTLE [4]

Tan frowned.

'Berdevan. An unexpected battle.'

He thought that there would be no fighting until they reached the Pedian Plains.

Because it was a safe territory without monsters.

'It will be troublesome to take care of the new soldiers.'

The 13th squad consisted only of new enlisted men, new recruits from the training ground.

It was not just one, or two things that he had to pay attention to.

“Oliver! You take care of the new guest! ”

"Yes!"

Oliver replied in high spirits and lined up the newcomers, including Pierce in front of him.

They were in a stunned state due to the battle that suddenly appeared.

Oliver hits the helmets of the newcomers with his big hands.

dong! dong!

“Everything, control yourself! When the battle begins, you just follow me. Understood?"

“Ya, yes ...”

A weak answer.

Oliver frowned and hit Pierce's chest.

Smacked.

“Kuh.”

Pierce fell down and stepped back.

Hit it! Hit it!

oliver shouted after continuously hitting the chests of the other newcomer soldiers.

“Reply correctly! This is not training! If you don't hold yourself, you'll die! Understood?"

“You, yes!”

Only then did a vigorous answer sound.

Oliver nodded with a satisfied face.

Then, a soldier who was at the back interrupted.

“Hey you, what ……. That you?"

He wanted to reprimand her, but at that moment he saw the face of the soldier.

It was Roan who returned after completing his scouting assignment.

"You too, hold yourself!"

"Yes!"

Roan replied excitedly and then quickly covered his mouth.

A firm face with shining eyes and a strong will.

He was not at all nervous or scared.

"Look at this guy."

Oliver looked at Roan with a slightly surprised expression.

'Also at that moment, when he was packing his things, it seemed like he had experienced doing so.'

However, that is impossible.

All of the five new enlisted soldiers included Roan, all of them beginners with no battle experience.

At that moment, the sound of drums blared.

Explosions. Explosions. Explosions.

At the same time, the cavalry and archers charged towards the Ale gorge.

Dudududu.

The sound of the earth shaking.

The other men followed them.

The cavalry galloped from the left side of the canyon entrance to the right, this caused tremors on the mountain floor and attracted the attention of the goblin troops.

During that time, the archers prepared to fire.

"Fire!"

At the command of the officer, the fire arrows covered the sky.

Shoot shoot shoot.

The entrance of the canyon became a sea of fire in an instant.

Burning fire!

The path of fire devoured the mountain peak, driven by the flowing wind.

The only place the fire didn't reach.

The west side where archers do not shoot on purpose.

Other forces were formed there.

“Ro-Roan. Will, are we gonna be okay?”

Pierce called out to Roan with an extremely frightened face.

Roan clicked his tongue.

'For someone like this to be the Duke of Rinse Kingdom.'

This coward became a duke.

That meant Reil Baker's spear skill was truly extraordinary.

'I also learned a few tricks.'

Although he was not a formal student like Pierce, he also had some things taught.

And with just that, he could climb all the way from the 7th Squad spearman to the 1st Squad spearman.

'Although I am only a Commanding Officer.'

A bottomless spear was the same as a toothless tiger.

Even if he were to study an extremely strange spearmanship, he would not be able to show a tenth of it.

"Roan, are you scared too?"

Pierce looked at Roan who did not say anything while blinking.

Roan hit Pierce's chest and smiled.

“Nothing to worry about. You've always been the first in the spearmanship.” test

"That's, it's just in training."

Pierce's eyes were on the verge of tears.

Roan shook his head.

'Your talent is in vain. That bastard! Your talent is in vain.'

Even the instructor had said that his talent for spears, was the best they had witnessed over the years.

However, he was too hesitant and timid, so they did not know if he would be able to use it in a real battle.

'I really admire Viscount Reil Baker.'

He disciplined this kind of coward – to become duke.

“Just follow my back.”

Roan hit Pierce on the shoulder and glared towards the canyon.

Ale gorge, whose one side was now enveloped in flames.

Ground vibrates.

Undermining.

The trees in the canyon shook violently and the wood fell.

Chwee. Chwee.

The goblins flowed out at the same time.

"Kill them!"

"Kill!"

Along with the lieutenant's orders, the beating drums crackled on the battlefield.

Explosions. Explosions. Explosions.

His heart was pounding and his pressure was increasing.

Jollification.

At this moment, Roan became a child who dreamed of becoming a great general.

Then, Tane raised her spear up high and shouted.

"Resigning charges!"

"Resigning charges!"

All the members of the squad shouted and attacked.

The clash! The clash! The clash!

The sound of metal clashing exploded around his eardrum.

Pierce and the other new soldiers followed behind Oliver, while forming their posture nervously.

Compared to him, Roan continued to maintain rank in the squad, while observing the progress of the battle.

"Shoppers! They are so dirty!”

Pete shouted after thrusting his spear into the running goblin and cursed.

Roan shook his head.

'This is not the end of the goblin regiment.'

His eyes turned to the other side of the canyon.

'There is also the other half who is still hiding. They'll run out to help, once they see the fire.'

Then, the number of goblins we face will increase.

'We should reduce their number as much as possible.'

Roan gripped his spear and glared at the goblins.

Then, Tane's voice sounded.

“They broke through. Newcomers behind carefully!”

"I'll take care of them!"

Oliver answered quickly and cut the throats of the border-breaking goblins.

Reliable appearance.

Of course, the Rose battalion was an incredible battalion.

'I cannot let a battalion like this be obliterated.'

Then, a goblin appeared in front of Roan.

"No no!"

Oliver noticed it too late and wanted to swing his spear to intercept, but it was too late.

'Shoppers! At a time like this, the green horn became frozen stiff!'

Eyes concerned.

However, Roan calmly stretched out his spear and pierced the throat of the goblin.

Gr.

A goblin that fell.

Cool compact movement into one.

However, Roan's spear did not stop there.

Quarrelling.

The spear whirled like a snake and pierced through Oliver's hip.

The goal is the goblins eyeing Oliver's back.

Encouragement.

The tip of his spear pierced through the chests of the goblins nonstop.

"You, you ......"

Oliver's shocked reaction to the spear passing next to him while stammering.

Roan pulled back his spear with a calm face.

"Be careful."

Short words.

At the same time, he passed Oliver and stood in front of the new soldiers.

Swiss.

His spear blade drew a line of light that split through space.

'Where are you goblins!'

Roan's spear is dancing.

Gr. Gr.

Three goblins in a row fell.

It was clear from what had just happened to the new army, but he also drew the focus from the various eyes of the other 13 squads as well.

'What is the identity of that person?'

'New officers with no fear at all?'

The soldiers from the other 13 squads looked at Roan, and clicked their tongues.

At that moment, Tane who was looking at the situation signaled Roan a hand.

"Well! You come to the front! The newcomers will be taken care of by Oliver!”

It was futile to use its skills to defend the new enlisted army.

"Yes!"

"Yes! Understood!"

Roan and Oliver shouted loudly and charged over.

Roan who ventured in front with the other 13 squads.

Pierce who was looking back, showed a surprised expression.

'Dauk. What the hell is going on with you?'

The spear skills he remembered from Roan in training were not that much.

Moreover, she had never acted so bluntly, as she also had a shy side like her.

"You're like a completely different person."

In just one day, Roan had truly become someone else.

Gr.

During that time, Roan's spear cut the neck of another goblin that rushed over.
