"Here comes the demon!

　From a new lookout built on top of the ramparts comes the call of the guards.
　The platform they are standing on is taller than the normal platform and is reinforced by a support that extends to the ground inside the ramparts for reinforcement.

What are the numbers and distances?

　A soldier standing on the ramparts asks for additional information.

"Countless! Green is 8, black is 2!　There's more to come!

　Due to visual limitations, it was impossible to count more than a certain amount.
　Since there are not many people who can count the numbers in the first place, this soldier who can send information, even roughly, was excellent.
　It was led by Trow, the guild leader, who placed such a person on guard.

　And by the time the monster was within visual range, Dexi's town was ready for battle.

Okay, as soon as the enemy crosses the line, the long-range forces will intervene to attack!

　The adventurers, vigilantes, and civilian volunteers on the ramparts scream as Trow, who has been waiting in his newly built watchtower and command center, gives the order.
　They each have their bows and staves at the ready, waiting for the enemy to approach.

　Three circular trenches were drawn around the city, which were within effective range of magic and bows and arrows.
　Since the forces this time are not trained soldiers, the trenches are dug as a marker to compensate for the low level of individual skill. From the outside, for those who fight with bow and arrow magic or for hunters, for those who have experience in battle but have never used a bow and arrow before, and the innermost circle is a distance that an amateur can shoot at and just barely inflict damage as a fighting force.

　Fortunately, this time the enemy will come in large numbers, so there is no need to aim, and in this sense there is an advantage to hiring civilian volunteers.
　And this idea of using civilians was suggested by Letty, a soldier.
　We don't know how many demons will come in this battle.
　Hence, even if it was a hastily crafted force, the situation was desperately needed.

"Enemy approaching outer circle!

　When the guards shout, the skilled troops waiting outside the gates are tense.

"Don't hold your bows unless you're a skilled unit yet!

　In order to prevent the civilian units from firing accidentally, the commanders of these units, who have experience in actual combat, issue a notice.
　In order to make effective use of the civilian population, they have hired some people with real combat experience, especially those with experience as team leaders, to be their commanders.

We are almost to reach the ...... line and do the ministry.

"Shoot me!

　On command, the soldiers on the front line release their arrows with magic.
　The tenfold and double attacks are sucked into the crowd of monsters.

The demon horde has been hit!

"A result will be...

"It works, but the number of demons is too great, and it's just a stone's throw away!

"d*mn!

　The report from the watchtower brings a frustrated voice from the advance team.

'Anyway, attack!　There are targets all over the place anyway!　You don't have to aim, just shoot!

「「「「 Oooh! 」」」」

　The archers shoot arrows one after another.
　Each time the demons are wounded, they fall.
　At first glance, the results of the battle seemed overwhelming, but it was also a nightmarish spectacle, as no matter how much you defeated them, the number of enemies did not decrease.

How many are there?

　The

(What a number, after all, is the impact of the loss of the battlefield?

　Trow, poised in the tower, had a faint hint of impatience in the back of his mind.
　But he would never let the people around him know it. As the battle commander of Dexter's town, I can't let them see that I'm worried.
　That's why I couldn't speak of my fears at this point in time, when the battle has just begun.

"All right, let's send the squadron!

"Yes, sir.

　Lasse, who was waiting beside Trow, nodded.
　He motioned to Lamia, who was standing by, and she waved a red flag and motioned him outside.

"Flying squadron, they're on their way!

　As Lamia's voice is answered, many wings take flight from within the city of Dexsi.
　It's a troop of demons with flying ability that Lasse follows.
　They grab the big bag on their feet and fly away.

I'll take care of you.

　The demons, who carried the expectations of the town, now go to war.
