Human King

One man was charging through an open field, the base of Riagas Mane. It has become a battlefield packed with hideous monsters. Apeman, Rhino, Lizardman, Goblins! He was eradicating every single life detected there. His armor which had a silver color cannot be seen. It was replaced with the color of red, the color of blood.

Swisshh.

"Every time I see the commander fight, I get goose bumps."

"You got that right."

"You fools! If you got time to be chatting around, you are better dying off now!"

"Make way, make way! Follow the commander, Cavalry squad!"

His men were thoroughly following him in order to make sure that he doesn't get surrounded by the sheer number of the enemies.

The monsters that stepped on the path of Raizen got mercilessly cut by his sword.

A rhino has come out in the corner of his eyes.

'It's targeting me.'

Raizen quickly changed directions and purposely went in a den of monsters.

'Haha! Follow me here you fucker!'

Uwooo!

The cries of the monsters ring loudly in this area of the forest while the cutting of the wind silences it.

swish.

Raizen slowly pulls out his sword from the corpse of a monster. A sword filled with blood yet it shines brighter than the sun.

Boom!

While Raizen was balancing himself, a punch from an Apeman came crushing down. Of course, Raizen was able to dodge the strike.

The Apeman pulls his fist but then he saw Raizen right in front of his eyes.

Hiii!

The apeman fell in a state of confusion by the sudden appearance of the enemy that should have died from its fist.

Raizen of course wouldn't let go of this opportunity and quickly slashed the head of the Apeman.

Swoo.

The sword that cut the head and the head that fell down.

The sight of such Raizen is breathtakingly amazing for the people in this place.

****

"Why are you here, Commander Raizen?!"

"I am here on the order of Commander Prawler. We are to get you out of here and rejoin the main army."

"W-what! What kind of bullshit a commoner like you is talking about!"

After the battle, talks between the two units are ongoing. Of course, Raigas Mane was not happy about the appearance of Raizen.

"You! Right now, we are on a battlefield! If you do not follow the military rules, we can kill you right here right now! Even a noble cannot escape from that!"

The one who spoke angrily was one of the adjutants of Raizen, Key.

Raizen raised his hand towards his adjutant.

"You've been losing to the monsters for at least a week. By now, you should have considered retreating. And I heard from the messenger that you haven't even tried cooperating with Sir Leigh and Sir Barg. You three have failed on your mission and now you are talking back to someone under the orders of the Commander?"

"Y-you lowlif-"

"Right now I am the one with the highest authority, Sir Mane!"

Riagas Mane flinched at the phrase 'highest authority' and immediately bit his lips. He knew what would happen if he disobeys the military order. And he even failed on a mission and lost many men. If he even disobey a superior officer at that, his head might roll. The only reason why he threw his weight around was because he knew that Raizen was dumb.

'Shit! Why is he saying words that don't fit him!'

"Now then, we will meet with sir Barg and retreat."

And Raizen turned around. For Riagas Mane, he looked imposing. For the men under him that saw his face, they felt relieved rather than anger. Especially Key, the guy who threatened a noble was relieved at the performance of his commander. They knew what was going on.

'Guy... He knew how this shit will react! What an amazing bastard .'

When they finished their preparations, the unit of Riagas Mane followed behind. And in Riagas Mane's mind, he could only think about how he would take revenge on this rude commoner.

'I'll get you for this, Raizen!'

The reason Raizen was here instead of dealing with the situation was because Guy instructed Raizen to help the nobles while he returns to the headquarters. He was already sure about his suspicions about the messenger. He wouldn't wait for the evidence in this kind of situation. Even if one wanted to retreat, it cannot be done hastily. If they retreat without doing any preparation, they will be cornered at some point and eventually die. Guy wanted to prevent that and even have enough space to counterattack the enemy.

After a few hours of marching, they were finally able to see the trails of Gerbog Barg.

"Sir! We have sighted the unit of Sir Barg!"

Dududududu.

The men halted their march and waited for the cloud dust to subside. The man in front was a man with innocent features yet he was scary. No, it is more appropriate to say that his anger was surfacing on his face. His anger was of course the humiliation of being saved and having to pull out just because of a monster attack. His mind has not caught up with the reality.

"Good to see you safe, Sir Barg."

The man, Gerbog Barg, let out an awkward smile.

"Yes... I have heard about the order to meet in the headquarters. Thank you for escorting us out."

'Escort? I'm surprised he can say that. He acted so hot in the meeting and now he's in that state. Life is fun in many ways.'

Of course, that was the inner thoughts of Raizen. He could voice that out but even he wouldn't want to get the hate of two nobles. Even if they wouldn't succeed their family, they still hold influence after all.

"Now then, let us return. We already picked up Sir Leigh and he is on his way to the Big Tree."

At that moment, Gerbog Barg narrowed his eyes. Murderous intent was flowing out of him.

'Picked up? He is treating us like kids. Fuck, how dare a commoner!' is what Raizen was thinking. He purposely stifled his laughter and turned around. Once again, he thought about how amazing his brother was.

"Turn back! We will retreat to the headquarters!"

With this, they completed their initial mission.

****

While Raizen's unit was retreating, an army was advancing deep in the forest. In this region of the forest have the characteristics of huge trees. If one wants to compare it, a tree here is as big as Big Tree if not larger.

And in this part of the forest, 200 or so green skins can be seen. In the middle of it was one huge black goblin. That goblin is Raen who was exiled out of his clan. The sight of them marching was fierce and fear inducing!

"How many days until we make it there?"

Raen was surrounded by his closest confidants. Of course, not one of them was a normal goblin. They all have an increased rank. Five Goblin Low, three Goblin Middle, two Goblin High and Raen himself was a Goblin Baronet. This force is enough to obliterate a big village in the Rosas Kingdom.

"Chief, we believe it- Chii!"

Raen, who hated being called chief, threw a punch at the reporting goblin.

"I told you to call me king you fucker!"

"Y-yes king! It will take us 5 days. I believe they have already surrendered."

Raen sneered at the sight of his pathetic subordinate. He was feeling satisfied. He looked at his left and not one met his gaze. He then looked at his right and again, no one met his gaze. He let out a laugh. A laugh that was so hideous no matter who listened to it. For the goblins gathered here, it was a devil's laughter.

'Yes, this is how it should be!'

Raen was fooling himself thinking that he was a superior being. The sight of his subordinates kissing his feet made him feel that he truly was.

'After the villages in the area of the wolf, I will be taking their women! Kik!'

His laugh is the only sound that can be heard among the numerous goblins gathered here.
