“The elves are on the move again. “It seems like they are trying to fight outside rather than trying to stop it in the city.”

“Isn’t it just that some worthless guys are picking on it again?”

“I don’t think so. The confirmed size is more than 10,000. “It looks like they have completed all preparations and are serious about competing.”

“Really?”

Heinz chuckled after hearing the urgent report from the wizards who were using detection magic. I already knew that the elves’ actions of repeating defeat every time were not sincere.

I just ignored it in order to raise the morale of the soldiers and advance quickly. The proper battle begins now.

But he wasn’t really worried. The wave sealing technique that was prepared as a secret trick is still effective against elves. The reason why I have deliberately refrained from using it even once was to use it at such an important moment.

“Prepare for battle. This time, we have to destroy their main force and push through to where the World Tree is.”

Heinz ordered his entire army to fight. Because it was inside a dense forest, it was impossible to bring a large number of troops and use tactics like on flat ground, but the kingdom’s army firmly believed in the wave sealing technique.

“Take a position and maintain formation!”

“They won’t be able to shoot arrows anyway. “Don’t worry, be prepared to respond!”

Because it was a dense forest, rather than uniting as one, they were divided into several pieces ranging from hundreds to thousands, each forming their own formation.

Since the elves’ arrow attacks were impossible anyway, the intention was to form a formation and move forward slowly, dealing with the elves if they rushed in for close combat first.

“It seems like you are full of confidence. “If they come like that, there will be no answer if we spread the distance and fight.”

“You can’t win if you don’t know what your opponent has and what kind of power they have.”

Serenian, like Heinz, also saw the appearance of the kingdom’s army.

Serenian, who did not deny Rondel’s words that the kingdom’s army was acting foolishly now, hardened his face. The importance of information. It has been like this until now, but it is getting bigger as the scale of the war grows.

If the elves had known in advance about the wave sealing technique prepared by the kingdom army, or if the kingdom army had known even a little more about the large amount of gunpowder weapons that the elves were planning to use, the balance of the war would not have been established.

‘What is the regent of the empire hiding?’

Serenian turned his thoughts elsewhere before a big and important battle. The war taking place now is a kind of prelude.

Even at this very moment, Orca is definitely moving toward her own goal of unifying the continent. They were the real enemies.

“They are coming. Place the golems at the front!”

“Aim for the ant they are riding on!”

The moment when the battle that everyone senses is approaching. In the middle of a battlefield noisy with the shouts of field commanders, the kingdom’s army quickly formed the battle formation they had planned.

It was a formation that was strictly focused on close combat. A strategy to deal with the elves by deploying infantry and knights heavily armed with golems and long spears at the front and archers at the back.

It was decided that if the elves, who had lost the advantage of arrows containing mana, attempted to charge, they would stand and crush them as if they were dealing with ordinary cavalry.

“It would have been easier if we had burned down this huge forest in the first place. It’s a pity I couldn’t do that because I didn’t have time. “If you come and burn it now, we will burn to death too.”

Meanwhile, Mer A, who was in the middle of her formation, dragged her Ruri to her side and grinned. Her intention was to show the elves being defeated.

‘The reason we took the time to prepare is because there is a way.’

However, contrary to Mera’s thoughts, Ruri did not despair. He was convinced that there must be a reason for deliberately defeating and buying time and drawing the kingdom’s army all the way here.

From the beginning, even Ruri himself could tell that the Great Forest was not doing its best. Of course, she did not mention this fact, so neither Mera nor the kingdom’s military command knew how much power the elves of the Great Forest had at this point.

“They are coming!”

The battle began almost simultaneously. The army of elves, who had been circling around while wary of the slowly advancing kingdom army, now began to approach the kingdom army.

“When you reach the range, activate the magic. “It just so happens that the wind is blowing well!”

Regner instructed his subordinates to prepare the wave sealing technique. The soldiers cheered when they saw this, thinking that they were invincible with this.

“Is it that sh*tty drinking method again?”

“Ugh…”

The elves, Mera and Ruri, frowned at the strange sensation running through their bodies. But it was definitely a little different from when I first encountered it without knowing anything.

Feeling slightly more comfortable. I literally got used to this strange sensation.

“But, you know, we’re all elves, right? “Others won’t be able to resist this technique.”

Mera, who got used to it a little faster, smiled at Ruri, who frowned at her face. It was a sincere laugh created by imagining how his foolish compatriots would be defeated.

“Get ready! Raise the window…”

“aaah!”

However, the moment when the elves who started the offensive gathered from all directions riding fairy ants. Screams erupted one after another from the troops at the front, who had raised their spears in anticipation of an intense close-quarters battle.

“If you just hold your ground and hold your spear, they won’t be able to attack you. “When you get within range, the archers start firing…”

“It’s dangerous!”

The leader of the knights who commanded his unit from the front with his voice bursting open. He was momentarily startled by his subordinate’s shout and barely managed to lower his head. Something went astray at high speed.

Even if he had been hit by a helmet, he would not have died instantly as a knight, but his power was clearly enormous.

“Hey, what is that?”

But when he looked ahead. As gunshots were heard in succession, the soldiers standing in the front line fell down, bleeding all at once.

The distance from the elves still remains quite far. However, the incident stopped when it was realized that it was not an arrow attack.

“Fire!”

The elves riding on the fairy ants, two at a time, ran at the same time, pulling out arrows that could not be fired anyway and pointing them at the enemies.

It didn’t matter if there were restrictions on mana use. There was no need for delicate mana to pull out a gun and aim.

“Keep shooting!”

They ran all at once, got close to the range, and started firing. The bullets flew in without stopping and swept away the ill-prepared kingdom army.

The firearms that the dwarves continued to improve by drilling rifling into the barrel and cutting bullets could easily penetrate the armor worn by soldiers. The soldiers who were aiming heavy spears, knowing that the elves would come running, lost their lives to the metal pieces digging into their bodies without even knowing what was going on.

“Dae, respond. “React!”

He barely came to his senses and advised his allies to fire back. However, their ordinary arrows without mana did not reach the elves, who moved quickly and repeatedly fired and fell at the end of the range of a crossbow or bow.

The same goes for most magic that has a shorter range. In the first place, because it was a dense forest, the elves, who could move quickly, had an advantage in providing silver and cover.

“It’s even on the trees!”

“They showed up from the side too!”

As a result, even a small number of elves were able to defeat the entire unit they were in charge of.

He was unable to respond normally to the movements of the elves, such as hanging on to the fairy ants climbing the trees and shooting them, or moving quickly between the trees, aiming for places where they could not take cover.

‘No, how is this…!’

He was mesmerized by the sight of the bullet cracking the magic shield that the wizards had placed in haste. Golems and knights were at least free from the barrage of bullets, but the magic shield was small enough to protect only a few people, and even that did not last long. If they were away, they didn’t know when the elves would appear and attack.

“There are attacks from all directions!”

“They are gnawing at the soldiers by shooting small stones with strange objects instead of arrows!”

This didn’t just happen on one side. This happened to the entire kingdom army, which deployed its troops with confidence thanks to the elves mobilizing more than twice the number of troops as the first attack.

Heinz, who had never expected such a situation in his dreams, twitched his eyes at the reports that were close to screams coming from all directions.

‘When it was said that the Empire’s airship fleet was annihilated. ‘I was wondering if that was the case.’

Gritting his teeth, he raised his weapon to go forward. Anyway, he has no choice from the beginning until now.

“It looks like he wants to step forward.”

And that scene was also seen by Serenian, who was watching the battlefield with a telescope.

“Are you planning to come forward yourself?”

“They will try to somehow clear a path to protect their formation. We need someone to stop them.”

Serenian instinctively lifted his bow and then put it down. Anyway, the enemies seem to be struggling and are continuously casting wave sealing techniques that are not very effective.

Instead, he held up a black plastic stick that looked like a sword. A type of holy sword that responds to his own power and maximizes the power of the Lightning Spirit.

I was planning on confronting Heinz directly with this.

‘The bitter affair is finally coming to an end.’

If you think about it, Heinz is the culprit behind all of this, starting with Ercilla. If he had not encouraged Ercilla and revealed his ambition to devour the Great Forest, Serenian would still have been living as an ordinary high elf in Deneb.

Of course, if that had not happened, Serenian would not have been able to rise to her current position and would have become just an elf swept up in the flow of the world, but apart from that, she had a justification for punishing Heinz.
