Swordsman Runes

Swordsman Runes
The Part 73



It was getting dark but I had no intention of stopping at all. I must arrive as soon as possible to the village and prepare a trap


"commander. You should rest first"(Stain) I ignored Stain and kept forcing my runes to keep going


"Sir you must rest or you will die"(Stain) "I don't care Stain. If I break the whole village will be destroyed"


"YESH!!! LOOK AT YOU!"((Stain) I stared at Stain "I can't stop now Stain"


"Your situation is so bad Josh, you'll die if left alone"(Stain) "I'm fine Stain"


"Urus used to have all that blood on your face before you spoke"(Stain)


The blood? Am I just sweating? I wiped the liquid on my face and realized it was blood.


"Listen to Josh, I know you're worried, agitated, scared. But you're not alone, getting there in these circumstances doesn't just get you killed. Rather than killing us as well, how is the morale of your troops watching you die?


Since your current state the entire army is also agitated, fighting in this state is the same as ordering them to kill themselves with you"(Stain)


I watched all my troops. Right, they all looked chaotic and panicked, like a lack of rest.


"And you know what's worse? What if you go there with us and die? Can the village survive? What if it doesn't? The village is destroyed and you die. Isn't that much worse?"(Stain)


I'm rash. I do feel anxious and worried but forcing all my troops like this is not a good thing either


Yes, I am ready to die, but if it's in vain isn't it the same as doing something stupid?


"You're right. We better take a break first, how far are we with Monrra?" I stopped the runes I was using.


We stop moving "Not too far it may only take a quarter of a day on foot and 3 hours on horseback"(Crow Soldier)


"Good, for a while I'm up" I lost my balance, my eyes blurred instantly and my consciousness was gone


I seem to be a bit late


***


I opened my eyes and felt pain all over my body. Even my eyes were burning until I decided to close my eyes again


"Deliver my husband to you, Stain"(Valerie)


"Let's calm, madam. I'll make sure you won't be rash again"(Stain)


"I can't believe he's using force until like that, it's as weak a village defense as that?"((Valerie)


"Master was just worried"(Stain) "Here you go, I go first. There's still a lot to do as Viscountess"(Valerie) "Good-bye lady"(Stain)


What is Valerie doing here? The sound of people entering the tent sounded "What is Valerie doing here? Stain's"


"Master is conscious? Madam took the priest and did the meeting earlier"(Stain) "Tanpaku?"


I opened my eyes, the pain I felt was much lessened


"Master was unconscious, and the state of the master was critical earlier"(Stain) "So yes. How long have I been unconscious?" "Overnight"(Stain)


"so yeah. What was the outcome of the meeting?" "The plan is to let the Sand Cheetahs get close to the front lines, and we attack from behind and block the retreat"(Stain)


"That's the plan? There are 400 sand cheetahs and behind them are 10 Bronze cheetahs. If we attack the back, it will definitely have to face Broze the cheetah. And it can't handle the Sand Cheetah on the front right?"


"It doesn't matter, the troops from Monrra will handle it"(Stain) "How do we handle it? There are 400 tablets, except having an army of witches is almost impossible to deal with"


"There's an army of witches under the mistress"(Stain) "Huh?!" Huh huh? Valerie has an army? Ko I can't know


"I think I need another explanation from you"


Since when did Valerie build that army? "Once, we can talk about it after taking care of the monsters. When did they arrive? The day after tomorrow?"


"Exactly the day after the sun is over the head"(Stain) "So yeah, well just prepare yourself to wait for them"


Sand Cheetahs and their Bronze cheetahs were hunted to extinction for a reason. Usually they only appear in the Sriek Plains and the eastern kingdom of Saniss


Their arrival always brought a giant sandstorm, even though they did not attack anyone. The sandstorm they brought could drown the one before him


Moreover, they included ferocious wild animals. Now I can only hope my army can defend against them


We set up an underground shelter to keep the cheetahs unaware of our presence.


The original plan continued to change until it was in order to kill all of the cheetahs. Me, Stain and my men will focus on the Bronze cheetah


They have a body size of 3 meters, skin with a coppery and hard color, and can use wind


Their weakness is their poor focus. If they were besieged and attacked together, they would die with difficulty resisting


Even so, their attacks are wide-reaching so they cannot just rely on numbers alone


Things are pretty tense here. Unlike the previous one where my army only focused on fighting ordinary monsters


Now they will fight the core monsters


Monsters with a core have intelligence in dealing with crises


Unlike monsters without a core that fights with instinct. Hence most nucleated monsters would not escape their habitat for no reason


That's why this wave of cheetahs raises questions for me. Is this a natural occurrence?


Unlike the monsters that attacked the entire Rodigur area. Sand Cheetah and Bronze cheetah are the original monsters of this area.


If the Sand Cheetah is natural to attack, but the Bronze cheetah? With the leadership of the Bronze cheetah there was no way they would attack other places as long as it did not run out of food


Thanks to Rodigur's current state, running out of food was impossible for monsters


There must be another reason "Commander!!"(Stain) "What's up?" "See this!"(Stain) Notification letter from the rat troop!!


I took the letter


from the rat troop


There will be a wave of monster attacks every week. We investigated up to the area of the former capital. Bone Rhino and Skull Rhino will arrive in 8 days


Behind it looks some other monsters will likely continue to happen for several months


"Gosh, why did this actually happen? Is it because I postponed the expedition?" "I think that's weird. As long as there is no bad movement from the monsters, they just started moving this week"(Stain)


"Is there something going on? I'll give the order, give the paper to me"


One of the crow soldiers sent me a letter with a bird


I ordered the rat troop to focus on watching the Stor border. All of these events are very strange and strange


I'm out of the shelter. Seen far away there is a giant sandstorm approaching. There were hundreds of shadows below him that ran quickly here


"Commander Cheetahnya-"(Stain) "I know. Let's get ready for battle" I'm back in the shelter.
