Chapter 256

Menacia flashed a deranged smile while staring at Brunhilde.

“Did you really think you’re the only one who can bring Adventurers here, stupid bitch?”

“…”

“I have to thank you for giving me inspiration.”

“What inspiration… are you talking about?”

“On how to break the balance of power.”

“…!”

“Our races have fought against each other countless times over thousands of years, right? But who could have known that there was such a good way to break the stalemate that lasted for thousands of years now!”

The dark elves and the elves had been at odds with each other over the supremacy of the Eternal Forest, but they were oblivious to the existence of the Adventurers. They were so detached from the world that they had no idea that such people existed in the first place.

However, everything changed when Brunhilde brought Siegfried to the Eternal Forest.

The dark elves learned of the Adventurers’ existence.

The dark elves valiantly pushed back any human who had attempted to enter the Eternal Forest for thousands of years.

They knew that the humans coveted the mystical magic and artifacts of the elven race, and they were also aware that the humans wouldn’t be satisfied until they conquered the Eternal Forest.

Therefore, the elves and dark elves cooperated and created a barrier over the Eternal Forest despite being at odds with one another. However, it was a different story for the Adventurers, which were a group of people who were more interested in their personal gains rather than territory or knowledge.

In other words, the Adventurers weren’t a threat to the Eternal Forest.

And that was why the dark elves decided to bring the Adventurers here. The Adventurers would surely break the balance of power between the dark elves and the elves.

What was the first mission of the Adventurers hired by the dark elves? Their first mission was to capture the elven princess who was trying to secure a path of retreat for the Elondel Forces—Brunhilde.

“Kekeke!”?Menacia laughed maniacally. She unwrapped the bandage around her chest before saying, “It’s my turn now, right? Look what you did to my breasts! I have this hideous X mark on my chest because of you! You fucking BITCH!”

Menacia’s beautiful voluptuous valleys were nowhere to be seen.

A cliff as flat as a plateau had taken their places.

“I’ll make you suffer the same shame I suffered! Ah, but not now, of course…”

“…”

“I suddenly want to enjoy some entertainment first. Kekeke!”

She looked at the Adventurers she hired and said, “Strip her.”

“W-What are you trying to do?!” Brunhilde retorted.

“Who knows? I wonder what I’m trying to do~?” Menacia sneered in response. She then revealed a malevolent grin and said, “What are you doing? Hurry up and strip her! Strip her naked! Kekeke!”

The Adventurers grabbed Brunhilde’s arms and legs.

They then started stripping her of her armor and equipment.

“L-Let me go! I said let me go!”

Neighhh! Neigh! Neighhhh!”

Brunhilde resisted with all of her strength.

Hyperion tried to stop the Adventurers to no avail.

Unfortunately, both Brunhilde and Hyperion were critically injured by their fall.

It was actually a miracle that they somehow managed to survive the fall.

And that was why Brunhilde couldn’t protect herself against the Adventurers, even though the Adventurers weren’t that strong. In fact, she was in a state where anyone with decent strength could easily subdue her.

“Let go! I said let me go!” Brunhilde resisted.

“Stay still!”

AAAACK!”

“You fucking bitch!”

An Adventurer slapped her hard.

Ah!” Brunhilde exclaimed in pain, and blood trickled down the corner of her lips.

“Good… Good… Great work…” Menacia said with a satisfied look. Then, she said, “Keep going. Ah, I’ll give ten times the promised rewards to those who could defile her the best right here and right now, so you better put on a good show for me.”

The Adventurers were slightly taken aback.

Ah… That is a bit…’

‘You’re giving the devil a run for his money…’

‘Isn’t she quite evil…?’

The Adventurers were just gamers, but even they felt that Menacia’s request was a bit too much.

“What? What’s up with those faces? You don’t like the reward? All right, I’m in a good mood today, so I’ll give you twenty times the promised reward. How about it?”

The Adventurers’ minds immediately changed after hearing Menacia’s new offer.

“Here we go, adult content! Here I come, baby!”

“I’ll go recharge my cash. Be right back!”

“I’m already done recharging! Keke!

The Adventurers were blinded by the massive reward, and they decided to abandon their humanity by purchasing the adult content coupon.

“J-Just kill me…!” Brunhilde growled.

Kekeke!?Kill you? No~ No, I can’t do that~ I will make you experience absolute shame and horror first. I will make you beg for death before I kill you!”

“Just…” Brunhilde muttered. She opened her mouth and was about to bite her tongue.

“Stop her!” Menacia screamed, “Open her mouth and stuff it with—”

Thud!

There was a dull thud as something flew from out of nowhere and struck the back of Menacia’s head.

Thud!

Another dull thud echoed as Menacia fell face-first into the ground.

The impact shattered her nose.

“M-My nose…! My noooose!” she shrieked in agony and anger.

Fwaaa! Fwaaa!

A fiery blaze engulfed the surroundings.

“W-Who did that? Which bastard dares to hit me!” Menacia screamed.

“It was me. What are you going to do about it?” Siegfried replied and appeared through the flames.

“S-Siegfried-nim!” Brunhilde shouted with tears forming in her eyes.

“You must have been really scared. Just wait for me right there. I’m going to save you,” he said. He gripped his +15 Gaia’s Fist tightly and rushed at the Adventurers who were trying to defile the princess.

***

Fwaaaa!?Fwaaaa!

“You’re dead,” Siegfried growled and started swinging his +15 Gaia’s Fist.

Puk! Puk! Pukeok!

The heads of the Adventurers who tried to defile Brunhilde popped one by one like watermelons.

“W-who’s that low-level bastard?! Argh!”

The Adventurers were helpless in the face of Siegfried’s fury, as the gap in their stats alone was too huge of a chasm to cross.

Why?

The Adventurers that the dark elves had hired were around Level 230.

Meanwhile, Siegfried had become much stronger after consuming the Terramorg’s Core, and his debuff had become so ridiculously strong that they were capable of shredding his opponents’ Defense and Magic Resistance to almost zero.

In fact, some of the Adventurers saw their Defense and Magic resistance drop to the negative, as their class didn’t possess High Defense or Magic Resistance in the first place.

Weaken your enemy and kill them in one hit! This was the motto of the Debuff Master, and Siegfried was truly an excellent Debuff Master.

“Kill him! Kill that bastard!” Menacia's rage-filled screams filled the air.

“Kill him!”

“Heed the princesses’ command!”

“How dare he hit our princess!”

Menacia’s dark elf subordinates rushed at Siegfried. Their levels were quite high, and they were great in numbers, but it wasn’t strange because Siegfried was currently behind enemy lines, which was a place teeming with dark elves.

“You bastard… Do you even know what you got yourself into by coming all alone here? Kekeke! You’re strong, but you’ll still die here! Hohoho!

You will soon kneel in front of me, and I will force you to watch those men defile your beloved princess!” Menacia cackled like a deranged maniac.

“Shut the fuck up,” Siegfried retorted and asked, “Who said I was alone?”

“What?”

“Look up,” Siegfried grinned mischievously and pointed at the sky.

“Up…?”

Menacia looked up and realized that dark clouds were forming above their heads.

“…!”

She was stupefied upon identifying the dark clouds.

The dark clouds were eleven airships that belonged to the Proatine Kingdom’s armada.

Siegfried knew that it would be difficult for him to fight the dark elves by himself, so he sent an SOS to the Proatine Kingdom.

Shwoooong… Shwoooong… Shwoooong…?

Moments later, hundreds of mortar shells rained down on them.

***

The military of the Proatine Kingdom was quite different from an average kingdom’s army. The Proatine Kingdom didn’t have enough manpower, as they were a small nation, so they had no way of increasing their number of troops.

As a result, it was impossible for the Proatine Kingdom to divide its forces into the army, the navy, and the airforce like other kingdoms.

They couldn’t draft soldiers into multiple military branches and find capable officers to lead them because of their small population.

Therefore, the Proatine Kingdom decided to focus on training their soldiers to specialize in all of the three main branches of the military. It was an incredible feat that not many nations could replicate, and the man behind it was none other than Mahidon.

He was once the Vice Admiral and Lieutenant General of the Adunyadet Kingdom’s navy, but he lost his job and was forced to aimlessly wander the lands after Siegfried destroyed his motherland.

Then, Lord Angela of Stone Island kindly wrote him a letter of recommendation, which allowed him to seek an audience as well as an interview with the Proatine Kingdom’s king, Siegfried.

It had been difficult for him to work for the nation that brought the destruction of his motherland, but Mahidon did not really care about that.

My motherland did not recognize my talents, and the king and his subjects framed me for the defeats and stained my honor.”

Mahidon loathed his motherland, so he had no qualms about joining the very kingdom that destroyed his motherland. However, he was worried about failing the interview.

Ah… I guess I’ll have to look somewhere else, but where else can a loser like me go?”

“Sigh… I’m going to try working for a maritime trading company if the Proatine Kingdom is not willing to take me in…”

He lost twelve consecutive crucial battles, so he knew that it would be difficult for him to land a job with his stellar?track record. However, Siegfried welcomed him with open arms despite his track record.

When do you want to start?”

“You fought and lost all twelve battles, but your casualties were low. Am I correct?”

“My kingdom doesn’t have a marine corps just yet, so why don’t you take up the reins and create one for me?”

Mahidon was hired as the commander of the Proatine Kingdom’s marine corps that day, and he had been drilling the way of a marine into the soldiers with all of his heart. The result of that was the Proatine Soldiers’ incredible prowess on both land and sea.

However, Mahidon was still not satisfied.

If we can train these men into paratroopers… Our soldiers could fight in all land, sea, and air! Our entire military will be made up of special forces!”

Mahidon recruited the retired paratroopers he knew and brought them to the Proatine Kingdom. The retired veterans proceeded to train the soldiers on how to rappel and handle ropes to turn them into paratroopers.

It didn’t take a long time before the entire military of the Proatine Kingdom was composed of elite soldiers! They made up for the lack of numbers by turning all of their soldiers into machines of war that could fight anytime and anywhere.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The soldiers of the Proatine Kingdom rappelled down the airships and surrounded their king to protect him. Siegfried now had an entire army in the blink of an eye.

“Heed my royal command. Annihilate the enemy,” he said. It was a simple and straightforward royal command.

.

“For Proatine!”

“For the everlasting glory of His Majesty!”

“The king has spoken! Annihilate them all!”

The soldiers who had rappelled down the airships charged at the dark elves. Of course, these fanatics?had sky-high morale right now because they were fighting in front of their Great King, Siegfried van Proa.
