Chapter 63: Fortress Vs The Titan (1)

6 Disasters.

As the name implies, they are creatures and phenomena capable of bringing disaster.

Each of them is capable of wiping out humanity, no, some are even capable of obliterating the world.

And in my lifetime, I’ve seen 5 of them. And I can rank how much disaster they brought.

And The Titan is the weakest after the Kraken. Yes, weak but it can wipe out the human race.

As the name implies, The Titan is one of the 3 creatures that live from the 6 disasters. Unlike the Kraken who lives in the sea so it is difficult to fight, The Titan is a creature that lives on land.

Even so, The Titan has the ability to easily wipe out humanity.

"... This is crazy... "

I muttered as I saw a creature as tall as a mountain coming towards us.

The Titan was supposed to appear in a few years, but this thing had already awakened from its slumber.

An extremely dangerous creature like this was already awake. A creature with the danger level of King.

Fighting a creature with Stat specs above SSS was suicide.

If only this creature appeared in a few months, perhaps the people of the other world could take care of this creature. But they weren’t strong enough to fight this thing.

(I didn’t realize there was such a creature in this world too.)

(Well, it’s at least on the level of a Level 5 Beast in our world.)

While I was still in shock, Muspel and Nifl were talking to each other casually despite having seen the creature.

Perhaps this kind of creature was common in the world of the two of them before?

I wondered, I didn’t have time to ask.

The creature was walking very slowly but every time the creature’s feet touched the ground. The whole place shook like an earthquake.

"What’s wrong?"

Elise looked very curious about what I saw. So I gave Elise the scope.

"...What is that... "

Elise mumbled in great confusion like she was seeing something unreal.

"...We have to retreat... "

I gave orders to everyone here.

"No..."

But I was surprised by the refusal of Elise who should have seen the creature.

"Are you stupid? Do you think you can-"

"It’s not about whether we can or not, but we have to do it. We are the protectors of Wolfled territory."

"This is not the time-"

"Young Master Zend said earlier that we were cowards, but aren’t you the coward this time?"

(This crazy woman!)

I’m currently in a panic over The Titan’s resurrection, but how could this woman provoke me.

Normally I would’ve knocked this girl’s head but I can’t.

"Tsk, I don’t have time to deal with your jokes!"

"I’m not joking, Young Master Zend!"

Elise then yelled at me, I was a little surprised.

I then looked at Elise’s eyes and turned to look at the eyes of the Border Wall Knights.

"..."

I could feel the strong determination in their eyes.

"...I understand your determination, but right now we can’t win against that thing."

"If that’s the case, the more we can’t retreat."

"Are you crazy?"

"It’s okay if we’re crazy, if it’s for the sake of keeping the city safe."

"...Tsk..."

I was prepared to use forceful means if it was for the sake of making the merema retreat. I can’t let my people die.

Just as I was preparing to make them faint.

Elise’s appearance suddenly turned into a shadow and I immediately looked behind me.

Instantly, Elise was already behind me and made me faint.

"...Why..."

Feeling annoyed, I asked Elise’s actions.

"Young Master Zend cannot die here... You must stay alive..."

With fading consciousness, I saw Elise’s eyes that I had seen so many times in episode 1. Eyes with determination preparing for death.

Damn damn damn damn damn damn damn damn damn damn damn damn.

Again I let my people die for protecting me, why am I this weak?

...

"Is Miss Elise sure you’re not coming back?"

"That’s what I should have told you guys."

Elise joked to the members of the Knights of the Frontier Wall.

Then Elise looked at the members of the Empire and the bodyguards protecting Zend earlier.

"Are you sure you’re still here?"

"Yes, we want to avenge the chairman!"

The injured Imperial member looked convinced, the other Imperial members also nodded.

"Looks like your chairman has loyal members. Then why are you here, shouldn’t you be accompanying Young Master Zend?"

"Huh, do you think we’ll let you shine all the time? We’re also members of the Wolfled Knights. Besides, Young Master Zend although evil but he is still a Wolfled family. It is our duty to protect him."

"It seems like the Knights of the main residence aren’t so bad. But what do you mean Young Master Zend is evil?"

"You may not know but Young Master Zend is a notorious child. "

"Is that so? But in my eyes, he’s just a lonely boy who wants someone to understand him."

"What?"

"We’ll continue this conversation later..."

"Heh, if we survive..."

"Yes, let’s pray."

...

That day, when I saw the massacre that the Irregular monsters inflicted on my squad. I couldn’t contain my anger, but once Signe died, my anger disappeared and turned into a feeling of helplessness.

I really hated myself for being weak, even though I had been given a second chance. But I still couldn’t save them.

For that I worked harder, using many ways to strengthen despite the great risks.

And I finally reached the peak of my growth at the age of 14.

But why did such a powerful creature appear now?

Why is takdit always always always always always always....

...

I opened my eyes.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Yoon’s face who looked very worried about me.

"Are you okay? Do you have any injuries?"

Yoon immediately checked my entire body to confirm my condition.

"Where is this?"

"It’s in the medical room inside the Border Wall."

"What? Then where are the others?!"

I rudely asked Yoon unconsciously holding Yoon’s babu very hard.

"Kh..."

"Ah, sorry..."

Unconsciously, I apologized for my actions to forget acting as a villain.

"Where-"

"They’re holding that thing."

Aster appeared and answered my question.

(...Don’t joke with me!)

With anger, I stood up and pulled Aster’s collar.

"Then why am I here?! Why didn’t you bring them with you! Don’t you know that they can’t win against that thing!"

Despite my anger, Aster still looked calm.

Then a slap from Aster came to my cheek that made me fall down.

"Of course I know that, you idiot!"

With the pain on my cheek, I asked again.

"Then why!"

"Don’t you understand? It’s because they want you to live! As long as you’re alive, they’re willing to sacrifice!"

"But... "

As I tried to argue, a gentle touch touched my cheek.

Feeling the cold and warm touch of the hand, I looked up at the owner of the hand.

There was Yoon’s face which looked calm but seemed to be the most reliable at the moment.

"Zend, calm down. They’ll be fine."

"What?"

"Aren’t they the Knights of Wolfled? Don’t you believe in your own Knights?"

"N-no, that’s not it-"

"Then, trust your knight."

Yoon then hugged me very gently as if he knew what I was feeling.

Even though I knew the words Yoon said were nonsense, I felt confident that they were still alive.

With that, my chaotic feelings became very calm and I fell into Yoon’s arms like a spoiled child.

Is it because I’m in a child’s body that I’m mentally a child too?

Although it was very sad that a grown man was relying on a girl, but I currently at least felt grateful that Yoon was my fiancé.

"Let me stay here for a while..."

"Yes..."

...

"Have you calmed down?"

After a few minutes, my feelings finally calmed down. Then Yoon asked in a soft voice into my ear.

(!!!)

After calming down, I finally realized what I had just done.

With my cheeks flushed with embarrassment, I immediately stood away from Yoon.

"Ah~"

Yoon looked very disappointed when I walked away from him.

"Ahem, please forget what I just did."

With a slightly stuttered voice, I tried my best to make myself cold and cruel.

(How could I stammer just from a young girl! You’re an adult! And you’re not a virgin Japanese protagonist!)

For some reason, if I interact with Yoon, I definitely feel like a Japanese virgin protagonist who gets embarrassed over trivial things.

*smile*

But Yoon doesn’t seem to be afraid and even smiles as if she understands me.

(Ugh, why do I feel like this girl understands my thoughts.)

"Ahem, I’m still here you know?"

"!!!"

"!!!"

Yoon and I were surprised to see that Aster was in front of us.

(We’re here too, Master.)

(What youth, or can you say middle-aged?)

(Ah~ bury me!)

With a feeling of shame, I tried to contain my embarrassment and act calm.

"Ahem, please forget the incident just now."

"You’re telling me to forget the romantic moment between the two of you? Please don’t joke, I feel like the scene just now will keep replaying in my head."

"Shut up and forget it."

"Yes, yes..."
