Manowa

Chapter 24

Lets go exterminate the ogres

==

==

(+) Winlard Town In front the main gate

They are here! They have come!!!!

At the same time as the yell, gan gan gan the bell rang.

The bell was arranged to notify people when the three hundred something ogres with the berserk ogre as its leader, appear in Winlard town.

That said, the town was actually quiet.

All residents were holed up in their own houses, shutting the doors and the windows. The nobles and senior merchants were waiting inside their mansions, watching the state in anxiety, together with their guards. Right now, the people moving around the town were only those who chose to fight.

Minshianas soldiers, 732 people, guild adventurers rank C and above, 155 people, Rank D and below, 88 people, about 1000 people in total. Thats the war potential that has gathered in front of main gate. And the main force

Well, theyre fearless. Kazane, atop the stone horse Hippo-kun who was running inside the forest, said that.

I heard against ogres, even if we choose a siege, the wall will break quickly. Well in the end, if we still cant ward them from the forest, theres no other choice than fighting against them in town.

Well, in term of human casualty, ideally, its better to invite them in and get them in one go.

However, since itll cause heavy damages to the town, the nobles furiously rejected the idea.

That said, this ride is really nice.

The comment came from the side, it was Garra who rode the second Hippo-kun. Anna and Jirou were riding in the back. The teary eyed Jirou has become a normal occurrence. He kept feeling that this few days were his last.

This ride feels wonderful. I want one.

Anna who is in a good mood, praised Hippo-kun.

Behind her, 4 Hippo-kuns followed along, each with 3 people riding it. Kazane and Yumika rode together with Zinray. The others were rank A and B warriors.

(Lets see Itll be good if this turns out well)

Looking at both the adventurers and soldiers who are protecting the town, and the incoming ogres, she licks her lips. Her consciousness had already entered battle mode. Remembering the battle against the monster invasions in the game, she watches the battleground with an ardent composure.

Then the battle drew near in front of her very eyes. A frontal confrontation between humans and ogres will happen in only a matter of seconds. However, why did Kazane and the others venture out of town on stone horses?

For that, we will have to rewind time a bit.

(+) Winlard Town Adventurers Bar room (Current Strategy Headquarter) 2 hours before

Well then, from the report of the scout, we know that the ogres will arrive in town in about two hours. Kimberly announced.

At that place, there was a gathering of rank A adventurers, excellent B rank adventurers, and an irregularly participating of Kazane and Yumika, all in all 30 people. Kimberly was chosen as mediator, in other words, this time he is the commander.

All that have gathered here has an outstanding ability, even within the Adventurers guild. I hope all of you can become the main force in the upcoming battle.

Howeverhe looked at Kazane as he said the next sentences.

However, from the current battle potential, its apparent that we are at a disadvantage if we confront them head on.

T

The plan to invite them in town and rout them in one go has been rejected by a lot of people and we must therefore abandon it.

Hearing that, inciting bitter smiles, tongue clicking, and abuse came from the surroundings.

Since we dont have any other choice, I think we should confronte them at the main gate with our main force while at the same time retreat to town, surround them and bring them down.

However Kimberlys next words invited laughter. That would mean using the main force as a decoy and encircle them. In other words, its only a change of words, So they will basically do the same as the rejected plan, almost.

However, I think its still not enough. Their Boss is a berserk ogre. I think defeating it as fast as possible is an essential condition for our victory.

Hearing the name Berserk ogre start from Garras mouth, who was beside Kazane, raised the anger from many people.

The annihilation of tens of parties. Other than because it has killed adventurers from this town, it must also have killed many of their acquaintancesthought Kazane.

However, I heard that they havent confirmed the appearance of the berserk ogre.

One of the participating members pointed it out.

Hearing that, Kimberly nodded.

Yes, thats why we will ask for her help. At the direction Kimberly pointed, as if its the most natural thing in the world, sit Kazane.

The surrounding became noisy. Though it was mainly with this question: why is there a child here?

Please be quiet. Kazane is human, but she has inherited a beastmans blood.

Kimberly pointed at his own nose with his index finger.

That means, we can utilize her nose. I intend to let her search for the berserk ogre and have the surprise attack unit deal with it. (ED: Is she a dog!?)

Hearing Kimberly words many responded with an ooh!, but theres one who replied with a wait a second!

Hum, youre Gyao, right. The one who had shouted before was a male beastman.

Yes.

After letting out a rough breath and glaring at Kazane, he said.

Ive used my nose on her, but I cant smell any beastman odour. I cant believe she can use a beastmans nose.

Hearing what Gyao said, Kimberly groaned, but Kazane said with a slightly tired look.

Yamba bird skewer. Hearing that everyone was confused, but after hearing Kazane saying come on, now its your turn, Gyao quickly replied.

Horohoro fish boiled in ciron sake.Rowly herb salad.Danish from Anis arbour.

After continuing around 10 times, Kazane said one thing.

Young lady at the reception desk. Err I think her name is Niina? Gyaos face turned pale.

Oh, and one more person

Wa-wait! I understand!

Gyao shut Kazanes mouth with both his hands.

Fugu! Mugugu!

Ah ah, Alright Alright! Your nose is amazing. Even more than mine!

Someone else grabbed Gyaos shoulder.

Yep yep. Niina and one more person? Who is it? That was the girl that was always beside him since the beginning.

No no! Mello. That must be you.

Eh? Its not you, its another perfufuho.

Once again Gyao hurriedly covered Kazanes mouth. However the gaze from the surrounding people turned severe. In this guild, the reception ladyNiinais some sort of idol. If someone dared to steal her, its not unreasonable to arouse the adventurers anger.

Well, lets leave it after the battle. Killing you, I mean.

Ha, hahahaha. Hearing Mellos kind words, Gyao can only powerlessly laugh.

At the back, Yumika inclined her head and said what is it? Zinray who was beside her noticed that it was a quiz about what food you ate yesterday between beastmen and Kazane, but he couldnt explain the meaning of their next conversations to her.

Hah.

After Gyao stopped covering her mouth, Kazane listlessly returned to her seat.

Well, if Gyao also has some confidence in his nose, I hope you can search for the berserk ogre together with Kazane.

Alright~he reply, listlessly. By the way, Gyao is a level 30 rank B, a boxer.

Excuse me, may I ask something?

After everyone had calmed down, Garra raised his hand and asked.

By all means.

I am Rank A, Garra Ordea. I want to confirm something about the current strategy, what kind of transportation will we use to locate and attack the berserk ogre with the surprise attack unit?

You mean, horses cant be used when fighting against ogres right?

Garra nodded.

Horses will become frightened at an ogres presence. Even the trained warhorses would run away after just hearing their roar. That would mean its not possible to move with a horse to locate the berserk ogre, and if we walk, theres a possibility that they will surround us.

Thats not a problem. Once again itll become Kazanes turn. We can move with her golems. Hearing that, the surroundings turned noisy again, however when Kazane summoned the stone horse Hippo-kun, everyone accepted it.

After that, they had finalized The berserk ogre surprise attack plan. And now to the present.

As I thought, hes at the back. How about Gyao?

I am also the same. Even when the other ogres ran, theres one who kept standing still.

Stopping the stone horse, Kazane and Gyao looked at the rear end of the group.

If its now, I think he wont notice us if we go around the back.Guess so. As the two of them judged it that way, Garra who was at the back nodded.

Looking at Garra who let out a ghastly smile, and raised his halberd.

Then the surprise attack unit, started to run silently.
