Chapter 432: Reinforcements Advent

Editor: Tseirp

Isolde, looking towards the decapitated Oranj, chanted.

.

In an instant, Oranjs head and hands, which had been severed, disappeared.

Then, new ones regenerated on his torsoand Oranj stood up.

I had a feeling, but seeing him actually come back to life is disheartening.

Abel, finally standing with the support of his sword, blurted and sighed quietly.

The resurrected Oranj

Now that Ive been defeated so badly, can you please just leave it at that?

Oranj complained to Isolde.

Your life doesnt belong to you, does it? It belongs to Garwin-sama. So get to work.

Even so, I dont think its right for Isolde to tell me what to do

Oranj frowned and replied.

Well, anywaysorry about this King Abel, but its time for you to die.

Oranj said apologetically to Abel, who was finally standing with the support of his sword.

It wasnt sarcasm or irony; he genuinely seemed sorry.

For Oranj, the duel with Abel earlier had ended with his defeat, even if he hadnt been killed.

So, he felt that as a defeated opponent, it wasnt right for him to take the life of the victor, Abel.

He thought so, butif it was Garwins order, there was nothing he could do about it.

Damn it

Abel muttered, his voice barely audible.

At that moment

A silver light streaked across.

Abel, you cant fight in that condition, can you?

A voice came from the side as the silver light stopped.

Sera?

It was Sera, an elven B-rank adventurer and the next representative of the Western Forest.

Im a little late, I apologize. It took some time to cross the Kingdom from the western edge.

Sera said, shaking her head slightly.

Then, a little later, a male Elf arrived behind Sera, kneeled down, and delivered a message to Abel.

Your Majesty, two hundred Elven troops have just arrived from the Western Forest.

At that moment, hundreds of arrows tore through the battlefield.

It was the attack of the newly arrived Elves.

For the phantom soldiers, aim precisely for the center of their chests or throats. Otherwise, they wont go down!

The voice of the Great Elder Obaba-sama echoed.

It seems Obaba-sama has fought against the Djinn army before.

I see

Sera explained, and Abel nodded.

He knew that elves had long lifespans.

However, Abel quickly remembered something.

The major difference lies in reach.

The sword has a longer reach and can fight from a distance.

Which is usually an advantage.

But its not always the case.

There are times when having a shorter reach is advantageous.

Namely speed.

Its the rotation speed of attacks delivered one after another.

And in that respect, having a shorter reach is faster.

In short, fighting with ones fists without a weapon isthe fastest.

The faster one controls the battle, becoming the attacking side.

Garwin attacks, Roman defends.

However

Whoa, whoa. Hey, are you really human? Youre too fast.

What can I say, Im a Hero.

Garwin exclaimed, astonished and amazed by the speed that set him apart from others.

Roman replied, stating the fact.

Ive lived for thousands of years myself, but among the heroes Ive seen during that time, youre one of the fastest.

Well, thank you.

But theres still room for improvement!

Garwin didnt dodge or parry Romans thrust but met it head-on with his right fist.

A counterattack against a thrust from an unexpected angle.

Something like what a certain water-attribute magician or a young genius swordsman would show

Romans thrust was heavily deflected backward.

Naturally, taking advantage of the opening, Garwins left fist struck Roman

Crack.

From the shadows, Garwin deflected the stone spear that had come around from behind Roman.

Demon Lord

Garwin said with a smile.

The stone spear, created by the magic of the demon lord Nadia.

This was something that he couldnt help but deflect.

Unlike other random magic attacks, this was, after all, the magic of a Demon Lord.

As far as Garwin could see, the power of the Demon Lord had yet to fully manifest, but he couldnt afford to let his guard down.

The Demon Lord wields magic of all attributes.

There were cases where a stone spear like this would explode upon impact

Dodging the Demon Lords long-range attacks while dealing with the heros close-range attacks? This should be interesting.

Garwin said to himself, then burst into laughter.

Even for a Djinn who has lived for thousands of years, this was an experience unlike any other.

Now, hero and Demon Lord, come at me!
