Ten minutes have passed since the battle began.

　I think I've defeated quite a few enemies, but the enemy's momentum hasn't waned at all.

　Or rather, Pixie's magic is annoying........

　I check out the surrounding dispatch.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on. Kotetsu deftly uses his sword to catch the goblin's axe and slay it. Lina strikes away the swinging axe and slays the goblin with a flowing movement.

　 Evade the enemy's attacks with the least amount of movement. If he couldn't evade in time, he would deftly manipulate his cuirass to parry the attack. He wasted no time in swinging his long legs around to avoid getting into a disadvantageous situation, blowing the enemy away, and when he found an opening, he would hit a counter.

　Takahar and Setanta are battle-mad. Takahar has a ferocious smile that makes the viewer cower, and Setanta is beating down his enemies with a smile that looks like he is truly enjoying himself.

　In this situation, we can do it.

''Hibiki!　Gather the enemy's hate!
Yes!　O ye who are alive, look at me with your true eyes and see me in every corner!　-- "Perfect Body!

　Hibiki turns sideways and crosses his arms behind his back, a pose that emphasizes his triceps - a side triceps - and gathers his enemy's hate.

'Takahar!　Setanta!　Smash those featherworms that fly around in the rear!
Yes!
Yes!
Ha, those bugs are terrible.

　Takahar and Setanta, who have great agility, happily rushed to the front line and attacked the pixie.

''Cain!　Move to Setanta's position!
I'm awestruck, sir!

　I let Cain follow Setanta's missing hole and I move to the position where Takahar is missing.

　All the goblins here have axes in their hands to gain. Perhaps because they have been overwhelming the invaders with strength in numbers until now, the skill level of each and every one of them is low.

　I took advantage of my gain - the reach, which is the advantage of the spear, to stab the approaching goblins without getting close to them. It's probably coincidental timing, but when multiple goblins are approaching me at the same time.

　--May Rain Strike!

　With a series of divine speed thrusts, he summed up and buried the enemy.

　--!

You never let your guard down with Theon?

　The spear of flame released by Sarah stabbed into the head of the goblin who jumped at the slightest opening right after she released the 《May Rain Thrust》.

''Sorry, thank you.''
Okemaru.

　When I thanked Sarah, she smiled happily.

　The CP required for a Demon King (fairy species) to create a goblin is 3. If we consider it including equipment, the cost per body is about 30 CP. The Demon King's level in this dominant realm is 12 and the number of dominant realms is 13. the maximum CP is 2400, so the CP to recover in one minute is 40. the enemy's strength is steadily decreasing, but the number of enemies is still plenty of room.

　I gloated in front of the enemies whose numbers were not decreasing like an infinite pop.


　◆


　It has been an hour since the battle began.

　I've been periodically clearing out the pixies at the rear, so the only enemies approaching are goblins.

　Either the enemy reinforcements will run out sooner or our stock of potions will run out sooner.

　Either way, it was a great success for leveling.

　Defending with only low-cost goblins is.......impossible. The impact of the numbers is amazing. If humanity came to invade without knowing anything about it, they would be cowed by the number of enemies filling up in front of them. But if I knew that from the beginning - it's just a way to earn a living.

　I chuckle as I feel the response to my leveling success...

　--?

　A single silvery arrow came flying in.

　A silver arrow?

　Until now, the only enemy composition was a pixie that fired magical attacks from behind and a goblin equipped with an axe that was outnumbered....

　Has the enemy composition changed?

　From the back of the room, a group of high goblins - a higher-ranking species with better skin than normal goblins - appeared, and finally, a goblin general - a goblin with a physique so large it could be mistaken for an ogre - emerged.

''You guys!　Which Demon Lord's hand is this!

　The Goblin General shouts in a low, dossy voice.

　Every time I wonder........if Blue evolves into a Goblin General, will his tone change?

　Or, in that form, "Oh head, I'm hungry! I wonder if they will say that........

　As I'm thinking about the vexatiousness, my subordinates gather their attention to me.

　If it's Chloe and the others, they'll be elatedly mentioning my name. However, this time the members are mainly former demon kings and humans. That's ridiculous.

My name is Sio.

　--Setanta, shut up!

　To his relief, Setanta's mouth was shut as he was about to answer fairly and squarely.

　



　After much deliberation, he added a mirage to cover up the words Setanta had mouthed, and used a pseudonym he was used to using on the forum as his name.


It's not a sub-law, it's a sub-law.
Seriously, imho.

　I tell Sarah, who complains with a sigh from behind me, how to pronounce it correctly.

'The Demon King of Uozu City ... a sub-row?'
"Do you not know the name of my Lord!

　I hurl scolding words at the bewildered goblin general.

I say, "Even my head does not know!　Well, good. --Die!

　The enemy attacked as a signal for the Goblin General to swing his giant silver battle axe down.

''Cain!　Put up a wind barrier and keep out the arrows!
'Yes, sir!　--Windshield!

　An unfurled wind barrier blows the falling arrows in a different direction.

''Hibiki!''
'Yes, sir!　You are an abomination!　I am flesh and blood!　-- "Perfect Body!

　A luminous hibiki attracts the hatred of the enemy.

'Sarah!'
Ri!　--Firestorm!

　--The Dark Knight Tempest!

　A storm of raging fire and darkness lays waste to the goblin horde. The one goblin that has arrived despite being ravaged is cut down by the Kotets.

　The axe in the hands of the enemy behind me is - all silver axe. I change my fighting style from participating in the attack with my spear to attacking with magic from behind.

''I will carve the fear of the Demon King Sablow-sama into the enemy--annihilate!
Hey! Yes! Yes, sir! I don't know. I don't know. I get it!

　The men guarding the front line wield their weapons at the enemies coming towards them as if they were responding to my voice.

　I continued to release my magic while drinking the [magic water] in moderation.


　◆


　Three hours later.
　Finally, the enemy reinforcements stopped and the number of enemies visibly dwindled.

　The last remaining goblin general was cut down by Kotetsu, who acted on my orders while Takaharu and Setanta were arguing with each other.

　I checked out the countless goblins and pixie corpses lying around and the path that led onward.

'What do we do now?'

　Lina looks to me for instructions.

　Will the enemy appear if we proceed?

　After a bit of thought, I decided to play it safe and retreat.

We're done. We're out of here.
What?　Wait a minute!

　As I turn on my heel, the canon calls out.

'What's up?'
Akira-chan asked me to collect some materials for her.
"Materials?
Yes. I heard that some of the parts of the demon can be used for blacksmithing.
What do you mean by that?
Mr. Goblin's horns and Pixie's feathers?

　Did they have materials or something........

''There are too many goblins.......High Goblins, Goblin Generals, and the rest of us will retreat once we've collected only pixie feathers.

　We then collected materials from the wreckage. We withdrew after collecting, feeling a greater mental fatigue than in battle.
