The Dragon Soul Forging

57. Cleaning Parade

Today was the designated day to do the cleaning of the area around the Dungeon. Hundreds of volunteer Hunters had prepared in front of the Mansion for the conquest march.

Raya stands on the roof of a horse-drawn carriage carrying supplies and equipment. The red-haired girl with long bangs dangling over her eyes stared at the volunteers lined up neatly in front of her.

First Raya expressed her gratitude because the volunteers were willing to attend this raid. Then he started saying his speech that burned the spirit.

Many Hunters triggered his adrenaline after hearing the oration Kingdom they felt became more confident.

“The expertise of the Commander's work is very effective to improve the morale of the troops.” said Budi who was also excited after hearing a speech from Raya.

After the speech was over, they started to leave. Pushrank harness pulled by the train began to walk, Budi is now a coachman who carries rubber supplies.

Along the way to get out of the city were filled with encouraging citizens. All the Hunters were happy to have the support of the townspeople, they felt like warriors going to the battlefield.

“How about city security. We can't just leave an empty city unattended, can we?.”

Police chief Ridwan also participated in the march. He expressed his concern at the tenuous state of the city's defense as most of the Hunters took part in the monster cleanup march.

“Master Ridwan doesn't have to worry,” reply Yuki.

“Why?.”

“Yes because the police are currently guarding the city right? Do you not believe in the abilities of your own subordinates?.”

“Eh! Ten. of course I believe in them. Police members are the best troops in Sawi city, no need to worry about the security of the city as long as we still have us.”

Ridwan said everything with his chest puffed forward, looking so arrogant even though he himself was not sure of the strength of his men could keep the whole city safe.

After all, in fact, Yuki himself said that believing in the abilities of Ridwan's men was a lie.

He couldn't possibly let security be controlled by people who always seemed to be lazing around without ever being seen hunting monsters.

Initially Yuki himself only wanted to invite dozens of Hunters on this expedition. But after Budi guaranteed that there would be no problems in the city when they went out, Yuki believed the young man's words and brought Hunter as much as he could.

Yuki who was curious why Budi was so sure that there would be no attack coming when the Hunters left the city, finally asked the young man.

“On the roof of the building at seven o'clock, you will see it.”

Following the directions from Budi, Yuki saw some figures staring at their entourage from the top of the building.

The figure was of small stature wearing a Hoodie and a mask, on his back an arrow and a hanging stick, riding a goat and a cat sitting on his head. Then four chickens perched on the edge of the walls of the building.

Yuki had no idea who the strange group was. But because Budi believed in them, it made Yuki feel confident that they could be relied upon. 'Handing over the city's defenses to the cattle and someone who looks like a child. This must be the craziest thing I did this month, Yuki thought.

The party finally came out of the wall, leaving the city towards the Dungeon.

The distance between the Mansion that became the center of Sawi City and the Dungeon was one and a half kilometers.

The first hundred meters of the march was easily passed because the area was cleared by the Hunters as a daily hunting activity.

But things began to be difficult when reaching a distance of two queens meters of travel. Monsters began to arrive, they were strong so many Hunters who had never entered the inside started to fuss.

“A troops begin withdrawal, C troops immediately take the position of the vanguard, B troops prepare for attack!.”

Like a trained army, hundreds of Hunters moved in an orderly manner following the direction of the Kingdom. The power of [Commander]'s work allows Raya to move everyone who thinks of her as a leader according to her dryness.

“Raya is like a war commander, so cold and cool!.”

“Yuki decapitated the Worshipful Grasshopper so easily, so powerful!.”

“What the hell with their group. As if I was looking at a Veterans.” squad fight

“They're from Sawi City aren't they? I didn't expect that small town to have such experienced Hunters.”

Comments of praise and support flow in live chat. This would be a great advertising means for the city and guild that the Kingdom would establish.

But these raids will not always go smoothly. Like thorns in the flesh, there would only be groups making evil plans while the fight was going on.

“Hem..” I feel the danger signs approaching. “Very many, how can they attract such a large number of monsters?.” He muttered to himself while closing his eyes.

Raya who saw the strangeness in Budi also asked. But the girl immediately snorted annoyed after Budi said what he saw through why (Hero sense).

Raya's gaze looked at the already exhausted Hunter army. If the herd of monsters came in large numbers now it would probably inflict a huge amount of casualties.

“And I intend to rest them in a moment.” He gripped his spear tightly. He felt annoyed at the people who wanted to thwart their efforts paving the way to the Dungeon.

“No need to worry!.”

“Eh?!.”

Raya was very surprised when suddenly Budi got off the train. Budi brought a bow and directed it to the sky. Everyone who saw it was confused by what He was aiming for.

“I just need to make them limp so that disaster does not come to them.” arrows are released towards east and west.

Two hundred meters east of where the cleaning company is located. A Hunter-like appearance in general with light armor and a short sword, he was currently being chased by hundreds of monsters.

The man deliberately made himself as bait to attract the attention of monsters. The goal was for him to be able to herd monsters into the area he wanted.

If in the game such an action is referred to as ‘Monster’ train.an indirect attack action using wild monsters.

“Sore a hundred meters, I will arrive first.” said the man who brought the monster behind him. He was talking to someone over the phone.

A wide smile was scratched on his face as he imagined the monster he was carrying messing up the currently exhausted Hunter army.

“After the Hunters are dead, there is no obstacle for us to control the city of Sawi.” The Hunter laughed out loud until his memory recalled a person who he thought was quite unsettling.

“I hope the shopkeeper dies too. But considering he had a horse, maybe two could escape.” the man moth happened the night before where a shopkeeper managed to fool him and his three friends.

“But, Ahihihihihi..” two couldn't help but laugh madly at the thought of what he could do to that shopkeeper if he managed to survive the monster ambush.

“I will make his death more painful than being eaten by monsters.”

He was so happy, so sure that the plan that had been repeatedly carried out could not possibly be stammered. But the fun and smile suddenly disappeared when suddenly from above the sky an arrow smoothly pierced through his knee.

“Siaaaaaal.” A scream of pain from the man leaked out as his leg was injured by an arrow.

In an instant the man's face was filled with fear, while the monster behind him ran towards him.

“Tidaaaak!.” another scream sounded.
