[So, how many monsters that attacking the city again?]
Inside Al Office, I asked Al who sat at her working table as she held her head tiredly. She glanced at briefly before answered
[A LOT! they're grouping in many flocks and heading here as we are speaking now! the adventurer guild speculates there is almost 10.000 monster in there. they get this number according to the first eyewitness that found their traces... sigh... it's already the sa scale as a war. not only that, it seems the monster leads by a high-rank ogre! even though they are not Lord Class monsters, you couldn't underestimate their strength and intelligence! as they are stronger than Lord Class! I only slightly relieved that the one lead them not Overlord Class though~]
[Is that so? isn't this EXP-fest for and my force? hohoho! let's power-leveling them!]
[EXP-fest? Power-leveling? what are you talking about? sotis you really talked about incomprehensible stuff a lot, didn't you? nevertheless, I'm glad you want to help in this Chaotic situation... and I heard that you already subdue the Duke son whose behind the banditry in my territory, is that true? as expected, is it Piter?]
[Hm? ah... it's just a word from my hotown, anyway, you don't have to worry about that idiot and the duke anymore. from now on, I will take care of it for you. It'll be better if you think about what you should do to defend this town from the monster horde..]
[Thanks a lot, Alex... sigh... without you, maybe the Federic house and this town has already gone tomorrow because of lack of powerhouses. About the defend... what can I do? I will just leave it to the guard and adventurer for the defend, sigh~ if I know this will happen, I will form a knight unit sooner...]
After hearing Al pessimistic about this town, sohow, an orange-haired bewitching mature woman with a strange tattoo in her right eyes appeared inside my mind...
[*murmur* I wonder that this town will disappear even without helping you*... sigh, just do it slowly from now on, you can give half of your burden to now~]
[Um... I appreciated it alot~]
Looking at the tired Al, sohow I wanted to ease her tiredness a little by giving a massage to her shoulders.
As I just taking a two-step to approach Al
TTTEEEENGGG!!!! tttTTttEEENGG!!
TtttTTTTEENG!!
A very loud bell-like sound echoed throughout the town!
Hearing this sound, all of a sudden, Al's face beca serious before she stood up from her seat and walked toward the window in her office to peek at the situation outside.
Seeing her action, I followed her by walking slightly behind her back and saw the outside situation through the window.
Upon arriving at the window, I saw so of the townfolks get out of their house in a panic with their own luggage in their hand outside. They seemingly run toward the church direction to take shelter. looking at this scene, I couldn't help myself to ask Al
[Did you not inford your people about the approaching monster's horde?]
[I did, but it seems so of them still choose to believe the church warning more than ... sigh~ anyway, since the church already notices the situation, it seems the horde already moved closer here... it'll be better I prepare my gear now, I can't just let my subordinates to defend this town alone. As a lord, I have to rise their morale by joining the battle~]
Al turned her head toward before smile enchantingly and kissed my mouth lightly. After giving a light kiss, she left the room silently to prepare herself before the battle.
Without saying anything, I could sowhat understand that the kiss she gave was a sign that she counting on to help her to defend this town... anyway, I didn't have to rush to go there and deal with the monster horde now.
I stood silently and keep looking at the scenery outside from the window as I recalled Al's answer, sohow, the situation outside really reminds of my previous world. there are always people who didn't believe in their governnt warning, but once their religion stated and warned them sothing, they could believe it easily.
'Forget it, it's their believes anyway, more importantly, it's ti for power leveling now!'
I took out my walkie talkie and started to connect it with Chali's
bzzzt
[Did you guys already in your position? the event will be starting soon~]
bzzt
As I give my massages to Chali and the others, an excited smirk appeared in my mouth unknowingly.

-----3rd Person POV-----
anwhile, in the west gate of the Arkhaim town that has the exact opposite of Arkham mountain, the guard Tom, looking at his guard-mate that stood tremblingly beside him
Guard A : Tom...d- do you think we can defend this town and stay alive tomorrow
Tom : Bah! stop spouting nonsense!! we still have Sir Harminton and Lady Alein in this town! there is no way a re B rank monster could destroy this town! anyway! stop trembling and straight up your posture! we, as the guard, have the duty to protect the people here! don't waste the commoner tax that used to pay us and man up!
Guard A : I wonder why you could keep being positive like that... did you not hear the Adventurer Guild announcent? It's not just a re B rank monster! AH!! l-look! they co!! I-impossible! is not a flock a-anymore! but ARMY!! ITS MONSTER ARMY!!
Looking at his friend pointing toward the outside tremblingly, Tom moved his gaze to his finger direction and his expression beca solemn! not far from them, a shadow of a monster army slowly approaching the town. their numbers couldn't be count as they grouping like a swarm of ants!
Without knowing, cold sweat appeared in Tom's hand as it made his hand that still holding a spear beca slippery. even though Tom trying to look calm, but as expected, after looking at the number of the monster in front of his eyes, he couldn't help himself to beco nervous
Tom : Still... Man UP!! whatever it takes, it's still our duty to protect this town! rember! your wife and children reside in this town! if not us, who will protect the helpless people inside the town?!
Guard A : .... sigh.... you're right...
??? : Hoooo!! as expected of Lady Alein town guards! I like your guts!! Ghahahaha!
Hearing old manly voices that suddenly appear behind them, Tom and his friend turned their head before shouted his na excitedly in unison!
Tom & Guard A : [[Sir Harmint!!]]
Harminton : Ghahaahah!! Nice guts! Tom is it? um um! you are a man among man! keep that spirit! Ghahahaha!!
??? : sigh~ looking at the monster outside, it seems Nyamo nose hit its prediction once again... Guildmaster, where is Anna? did she still not co back yet?
??? : Hachuu~ Monyaa~ It's bad mnyaa!! there is a lot of them outside 1.. 2... 3... munyiiiii!!! It's too many nya-Hachu!
Hearing these two voices, Tom looked behind Harminton direction before seeing a group of adventurer wearing a cool looking armor lead by a burly handso man with a petite cat-girl beside him
Tom : Galiust Sword!! The TwinBlade Gart, and... the mascot Nyamo?
Nyamo : Munyiiiiiaaaaa Who did you call a mascot nyaa!!! I am the true leader, the Golden Byakko Nyamo mnyaaa!!!
Gart : Since when you have that nickna?
Nyamo : hachuu! slurp* hm? of course after hearing Cringe King Alex nickna mnyaa!!! After hearing his cool nicknam- hachu! sluurp* anyiway, I want a cool alias too MnYAaaa!!
Alexa : which part of it is cool tho...
Gart : I don't want to be rude but... whatever, it's Nyamo we're talking about in the first place...
After looking at the Galiust Sword bantering leisurely at each other, guard A stroke his chest in relief
Guard A : Sigh... sohow after seeing these people I can ease a little...
Tom : Right! so stop trembling like a cat and do your duty properly!
Nyamo : What's wrong with a CAT nyyaa?? NYARUNOKAA (wanna fight?)??! OII?!! hachuu~ slurp* uee~ this sneezing is not stopping at all mnyaa
Tom ignored the petite cat-eared girl and breathed himself in relief. The Swordsaint Harminton and Titanium Party Galiust Sword, After seeing these people, Tom and his friend beca relieved as they gazing back at the army of monsters that still slowly walking...
Harminton : Ghahahaha you guys are rowdy as ever, and Gart! why do you still complaining about Anna again? I don't know where she is, but I believe she will back to this town soon as she has soone she had to protect, here, after all Ghahaahah!
Gart : Sigh... that woman... anyway, like Guildmaster said, with her personality, she will not abandon "them" for sure. but Guildmaster... I think this monster movent is sowhat weird...
Nyamo : Hachuu~ what is weird nyaa?? maybe they just attracted by the uncle john skewer Nyaa!! you know, it's the best in this town after all mnya!!~
Gart : Nyamo... could you shut up for a second.. and stop believing to rchants slogan... but your words aren't entirely nonsense... sohow, I can feel this monster attracted to sothing...
Harminton : hmm. I noticed it too while seeing them before, its looks like they are attracted by sothing... it seems soone really plotting to destroy this Arkhaim town or maybe Lady Alein noble's house?... sigh... this is why Nobles are... they really never consider the common people that swept around by their selfish goal.
Nyamo : Right! right! hachuu! sruup* as I said earlier nyaaa, they are attracted by uncle john skewer monyaaa!!
??? : Nyamo is not wrong... as ridiculous as it sounds, but these monst- no, these Ogres attracted by the skewer in this town. it seems soone killed the Ogre leader child and used it ats to attract this colony of monster lead by them into this town, by selling it ats cheaply to the rchant in this city. they seem to have skillful Alchemist to assist them as they sohow, can change the ogre at texture to that of usual mad rabbit at. quite a hideous plot I would say...
All of a sudden a feminine voice appeared and justified Nyamo's ridiculous guess. She had a blue eye like an ocean and long straight brown hair. she wore a hunter-style leather armor on her body and had A beautiful slender bow on her back.
Beside her, a woman that has the exact sa face as her silently followed behind her back with a frosty expression. she wore a dark Assasin cloak and had a twin dagger in her lower back, Yes! She was the one who killed Edward Athrast body(?) and went deeper into the dense forest to find Anna, her na is Anni.
Alexa, who always silent after retorting Nyamo naming sense suddenly attracted to the woman that had the sa vibe as her before she observed her silently
Gart : Anna! eh? why did you beco two all of a sudden... no, sothing is different with the "other" you..
Anna : she is my twin elder sister Anni... and she is the one who told about this current situation and plot
Nyamo : hachuu! Monyaaaa!!! What I told you!!! as expected!! it's because of uncle john's skewer mnyaaaa!!! nyahahahaahahaht!!!! hachu!! sruup* speaking of skewer... I beca hungry nya~ twitch* 'eh? what is this sll? it's Vice Guildmaster sll Nnya? but it disappears briefly after.... munya? maybe it's just my imagination mnyaa~' *murmur, more importantly... I am hungry mnyaaa~
