Chapter 113: Chapter 112: The Battle Ends
The South Gate, this is where the Orc General launched the attack.
The battles at the other three gates had already ended, but no fight had yet started here.
The Orc General looked at the woman on the city tower and felt a deep sense of fear. She was like a dragon, making him hesitate to attack.
Misty had been assigned by Peroroncino to guard the city here.
The soldiers had never seen her, but it was clear that the more people guarding the city, the better.
The Orc army had been observing here for half an hour, yet they had not launched an attack.
"General, are we not going to attack?" an Orc courageously asked.
"Has the messenger not returned?"
"Report, General, no. They left ten minutes after the battle started to observe the fighting at the other gates. We don't know why they haven't returned yet."
"I have a bad feeling," the Orc General said to his subordinates.
"But if we don't attack, how do we explain it to the commander?"
"Who is willing to be the vanguard and launch the attack?"
"I am!"
"I am!"
Countless Orcs raised their hands and spoke.
The Orc General chose the tallest among them.
"I'll give you two thousand troops. Do you have the confidence to take this place?"
"No problem!" The person selected pounded his chest and promised.
The two thousand Orcs picked up their equipment, carrying siege ladders, and charged toward the city wall.
"All remaining troops, fall back one thousand meters!" The Orc General ordered after the vanguard set off.
"General, why must we fall back?" the Orc lieutenant asked.
"To verify my feeling. I hope it's just a mistake."
The Orc army immediately began to retreat.
"Kill all these humans!"
Just as the Orcs were about to reach the city wall, Misty jumped down.
"Frost Domain!"
A snowflake-shaped magic circle appeared beneath her feet.
The chill quickly spread from the magic circle.
"Dragon Transformation!"
"Roar!"
A Frost Dragon appeared before the Orcs.
Misty opened her mouth and released a mist of frost.
The Orc vanguard, fearless, charged straight toward Misty.
The moment the Orc warriors made contact with the frost mist, their speed noticeably slowed, and their bodies began to frost over.
"A Frost Dragon! It's actually a Frost Dragon! Did you see that? The girl just now was a Frost Dragon!" a soldier on the city wall shouted.
"I remember now, there were rumors that the adventurer Chino once rode a giant dragon and sparred with adventurer Momon in the Empire's arena. The fight ended in a draw."
She seems to be the very dragon that adventurer Chino rode.
"How amazing!"
"Yeah! To think he can tame a dragon!"
"So envious, I want to ride a dragon too."
"I want to be ridden by a dragon..."
Everyone's eyes turned to the last person who had spoken.
Misty didn't want to move at all. After spraying the frost mist, she yawned and lay down.
No matter how hard the Orcs charged toward her, they couldn't harm her at all.
Gradually, all the Orcs were frozen to death.
After the Orc General saw all of this from a distance, he issued the order to retreat. Continuing the attack would be a death sentence.
With just their strength alone, it was impossible to defeat a dragon.
.......
Keralt let out a sigh of relief after watching Peroroncino leave, looking satisfied.
"Fortunately, it wasn't discovered!"
As for where the letter was, she didn't know. She had been so focused on serving the other person just now that she didn't pay attention to where the letter was.
"By the way, I just found a letter!" Peroroncino came back and said.
He then tucked the letter into her ample chest.
After that, Peroroncino left.
Only Keralt was left standing there, bewildered.
"Did he discover it or not?!"
Since Peroroncino hadn't said anything, would a normal person ignore a secret letter written by their subordinate to someone else if they had discovered it?
If the roles were reversed with Peroroncino, Keralt prided herself on thinking she wouldn't be able to ignore it.
Peroroncino had known from the very beginning about Keralt and the letter, because Hanzo (a spy) had been watching Keralt the whole time.
However, when Peroroncino was around, Hanzo would stop observing Keralt.
Everything Keralt did, Hanzo reported in detail to Peroroncino.
......
The Third Floor of the Tomb of Nazarick.
Calca, the Holy Queen, is imprisoned here.
But now, she is quite different from when she first arrived at Nazarick.
At first, she refused to eat or drink, and didn't speak. She remained silent for three days.
Then, Peroroncino arranged for Shalltear to try and "guide" her.
After more than ten days of Shalltear's guidance,
Queen Calca had become very obedient. Whatever Shalltear asked her to do, she would do.
She was afraid that Shalltear might abandon her.
Queen Calca now always carries the gift that Shalltear had given her, no matter where she goes with Shalltear.
That gift has become Calca's favorite.
Shalltear took Calca to the place where the vampire brides were practicing their dance.
In order to provide a better experience for Peroroncino, Shalltear had Calca practice dancing as well.
However, during the practice, Calca would always suddenly tremble, as if she wasn't feeling well.
The vampire brides glanced at the remote control in Shalltear's hand and immediately understood that Calca was likely not feeling well.
It was probably something like a cold.
The vampire brides looked at Calca with envious expressions, as she would soon be able to serve the Supreme One.
.......
After leaving Keralt, Peroroncino found the Sorcerer King.
"Have you decided how to deal with Jaldabaoth?" Peroroncino asked as soon as he entered the room.
"I've made up my mind. At that time, I will fight with Demiuge's Wraith Demon General with all my strength. I've become too lax lately. If I encounter a real enemy, I might have difficulty dealing with it."
"Indeed. How about this? Let's swap Wraith with me, and we can do some PVP," Peroroncino said, looking at the Sorcerer King.
A red light flashed in the Sorcerer King's eyes.
"What's the matter, are you scared?" Peroroncino asked.
"Of course not. It's just that when it comes to attacking you, I might not be able to..."
"We've PVPed the most times before, what's there to be unable to do?" Peroroncino replied.
"But in this world, players who die may never be able to revive. Whether it's the former Six Gods or the Eight Greed Kings, after they died, no message about how to revive has ever been passed down."
"Does being killed mean you die for good?" Peroroncino murmured.
"But, as you said, our skills might have become rusty. We need a strong enemy to help us recall the feeling we once had," Peroroncino said, looking at the Sorcerer King.
"We can do it in Nazarick, not here."
"Right here. The imaginary enemy you mentioned still hasn't appeared, but sooner or later, we'll have to face them. Since they're not showing themselves, we'll draw them out. This is the perfect opportunity!"
"I'll call Shalltear. I've also given her a World-Class Item, so she won't be controlled anymore."
The Sorcerer King remained silent for a long time.
"I understand. The first one to have their health reach 50% will be considered the loser."
"No problem!"
"It's been a long time since I've used my own body. It's just the right time to stretch my muscles."
At the eastern gate of the city, the soldiers were all praising the strength of Remedios, and no one was looking at the corpse-like Neia.
After all, there were so many bodies on the city wall.
Those who had observed Neia's battle were almost all dead.
The others were too busy taking care of themselves, with no time to look for Neia's figure.
At that moment, the Sorcerer King arrived at the scene.
Upon seeing the unconscious Neia,
The Sorcerer King took out an item, and the near-death Neia regained some life.
"Heal!"
"Your Majesty, the Sorcerer King, I've come back to life. I can return the precious item you gave me."
After speaking, Neia fainted once again.
"Did she fall asleep from exhaustion?" the Sorcerer King murmured.
He took Neia back to his residence and placed her on the bed.
