"Would you like a drink?"
Beside her, Shara, the archer with short blond hair, sat down next to An Yi with two glasses of wine and a smile.
Without waiting for his consent, she placed the wine glass next to his hand.
“Hmm.” An Yi glanced at Shara and casually agreed.
Tonight, she didn't wear the white warrior's outfit, but instead changed into a black dress.
Shera, the Bow Hero, is a powerful warrior who survived the battle against the goblins and is also a key member of the team that will defeat the Goblin Champion.
In An's eyes, she was a remarkably skilled warrior.
“Sometimes, I really think the members of the Saintess Squad are amazing…” Shara took a sip of her drink and smiled. “Mr. Karl, you haven’t gained much experience points in the past two weeks, have you?”
“Mmm,” Annie responded.
"They are clearly so powerful, and they can keep advancing into the demon realm to challenge even stronger demons."
But here they are, protecting and supporting us, everyone, and low-level warriors.
"That's why I think you guys are so great," Shara couldn't help but exclaim.
“Is that so?” An Yi recalled something. “Four people pushing forward isn’t very effective.”
So much territory needs to be reclaimed; it will require the help of all the brave warriors.
“That’s true,” Shara chuckled.
Participating in the campaign to exterminate the demons actually makes one truly understand the feeling of powerlessness.
Just like An Yi said, it's not enough for only four people to push forward.
In a war between humans and demons, the power of an individual is insignificant.
Instead of having only four people pushing forward, it's better to expand our advantages and empower more people.
"The Goblin Champion has already appeared, will the Goblin King's Servant appear soon too?" Shara asked, rubbing her wine glass with her thumb.
"Yes, that's about it," Annie said.
"To be honest, I would feel very uneasy after witnessing the strength of the Goblin King's servant."
They're way stronger than the Goblin Champion, right?
"If we encounter them... some of us might die." Shara stared at the wine in her hand and said in a deep voice.
"No, we're staying here so you won't die." An Yi glanced at her sideways.
"Is that so?" Shara gave a somewhat stiff smile.
"From now on, everyone will be able to easily kill the Goblin King's servant, and even more powerful goblins."
"It won't be long before we wipe all the goblins off the human borders and reclaim our former lands and cities," An'i said.
"But I wonder if I'll be alive by then." Shara leaned back in her chair and looked up at the sky.
An Yi did not continue the conversation.
It's normal to feel uneasy; all heroes feel uneasy and worry about whether their next opponent will kill them.
一%＇九∈潾◆±7●杷∧±嶙蒐索ＱuN: Especially when challenging the next level of demons.
But they had no way back; they could only move forward.
Even if you're afraid, even if you're uneasy, you must continue to take on the challenge.
Talking to others about your anxieties is actually a way to relieve your emotions.
"Actually... I've always wanted to ask Mr. Carl, why is Mr. Carl able to remain so calm?"
"Being able to calmly face any situation, I think that... um... is really impressive." Shara finally asked the question she really wanted to ask.
How did this man, who never showed any expression, overcome his anxiety?
“It’s not that I can’t stay calm in every situation. If I encounter a situation that makes me lose my composure, I still will,” An Yi said calmly.
Shara: "..."
That's like saying nothing at all!
And surely there's no situation in this world that would make you lose your composure?!
"Rather than facing it calmly, it's more accurate to say there's no need to overreact," Annie said.
“Then I’m actually quite curious about what could have caused Mr. Karl to react so strongly,” Shara said with a smile.
"May the Demon King suddenly appear before me," An Yi said, taking a sip of her drink.
"Only an enemy of the Demon King's caliber could frighten Mr. Karl?" Shara asked, somewhat surprised.
"Not only that, the Little Demon King should be able to as well."
"Because that's not an enemy we can deal with right now," Annie said.
"The level of Little Demon King 8 is also very high, right?! That's the strongest one below the level of Demon King 6!" Xia Silai couldn't help but complain.
“Yes,” Annie replied.
"Only enemies of that caliber could make Mr. Karl so uneasy. There are very few demons in the entire race that can frighten Mr. Karl."
But... Mr. Karl hasn't seen how terrifying those more powerful demons are, has he?
"What if there are even more powerful individuals inside that Mr. Karl can't even imagine?" Shara asked with interest.
An Yi: "No."
Shara: "..."
Mr. Carl... his arrogance is truly indescribable!
For An Yi, there was nothing unimaginable.
After all, they had already fought against the Demon King.
Even the Demon King could imagine it, let alone the royal servants below the Demon King.
Suddenly, a message appeared in the public chat of the Heroes' Chat Group.
[Forest Warrior: Everyone! We've spotted goblin tracks twenty kilometers away. There are a lot of them; they seem to have gathered together!]
Upon seeing the message, the previously cheerful atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
"Is this... a night raid?" a hero asked in confusion.
Chapter 35 The Goblin King's Servant Appears?! (4k)
Although the goblins attacked during the day last time, catching the humans off guard, it cannot be ignored that they are a nocturnal race.
[Sword Hero: Are there only ordinary goblins, or are there goblins of centurion rank or higher?]
The goblins appeared 20 kilometers away, which is actually the normal range where goblins would appear.
After all, goblins hide in the mountains, and no one can guarantee that every single one has been killed.
[Forest Warrior: So far, only ordinary goblins have been found wandering around.]
"These goblins are scouting again, aren't they?!" one of the heroes said with a laugh.
"Haha! It's exactly what we planned!" Another hero happily raised his glass.
"Keep drinking! Keep drinking!!"
"Oooooooo—!!" Ling
Like a trivial interlude, they had long been prepared for the goblins' appearance.
[Sword Hero: Let's proceed as planned, sending out those two heroes.]
Upon seeing this sentence, two brave men at the banquet stood up.
"Then we'll take our leave first!"
Have fun, everyone!
The heroes cheered and shouted things like "Come back soon" and "Be careful."
On the other side, An Yi muttered to herself in a low voice.
"If it were daytime, we could send out heroes to hunt them down as usual, but the forest is too dangerous at night."
To keep goblins away, we humans also need to resort to some ruthless tactics.
"The abilities of heroes are truly diverse and wonderful..." Shara couldn't help but sigh from the side.
The two heroes who just went out were named the "Poison Hero" and the "Mist Hero".
The Poison Warrior can use poison, while the Mist Warrior can release mist.
If the two of them were to team up...
Then you can kill the demons without them even realizing it!
……
Deep in the forest, Gomon, accompanied by four Goblin Champions and thirty-two Goblin Centurions, summoned all the Goblin Centurions in the region.
Each Goblin King's servant is accompanied by four Goblin Champions, making it a full-scale mobilization.
These thirty-two goblin centurions were only a part of Gomon's total forces, but this was the maximum number he could command for the time being.
Because it is necessary to preserve the strength of the empire, too many goblin centurions cannot be deployed.
In a hastily dug cave, Gomon listened to his subordinates' report. ∏○（肆）《≮
A goblin centurion respectfully said to it, "Lord Royal Attendant, as you requested, we have sent our men to explore human cities, hoping to understand the scope and patterns of human activity."
We currently know almost nothing about human beings.
Goblins that encounter humans all die.
Moreover, humans are very cunning; they wiped out all the goblins within a certain area, preventing the goblins from obtaining their information.
"Why didn't you do this before?" Gomon asked in a deep voice.
The Goblin Centurion's massive body trembled; compared to the even taller and more robust Goblin King, it looked like a child.
"Lord Royal Attendant, we tried to do so before, but the humans quickly discovered our scouts and killed them swiftly," said the Goblin Centurion.
