Defense 999,999,999 Corps Commander

8 – Getting Max (1)

“What, what are you doing?”

I threw myself behind the bed.

It was a kind of defense mechanism.

“I swear allegiance to you.”

Seina opened her mouth while lying face down.

It was an act that was incomprehensible to human common sense, but from her point of view, this was a very generous hospitality.

“Why do you swear allegiance to me?”

Obviously, I thought it would take quite a while.

Nothing can comfort her from the wounds and sorrows she suffered from humans.

So, as a last resort, if she was running out of time, I thought of using her vast game knowledge to placate her.

But swearing allegiance to the human who was the culprit behind everything just because he helped me with a small revenge.

It was impossible.

“Because Gerard is strong.”

“… ….”

Seina’s words made her speechless for a moment.

Thinking of what happened today, all she did was ignorantly swing her fist.

It’s not a martial art learned systematically, it’s really crude fisting.

‘There’s no way I could do this just because I was attacked by bastards.’

“Are you pretending not to know?”

Seina opened her mouth as if she had noticed this intention.

“What?”

“With all my attacks blocked.”

She pretended to scratch.

I laughed out loud at that appearance.

You know what that means.

‘… When did you attack?’

Well, it wasn’t an important issue.

Because there was no blow to me.

“Wake up. Seina.”

Whatever the reason was, it didn’t matter.

Because it was important that she swore allegiance.

At my words, Seina raised her body.

At the same time, something as large as a watermelon caught my eye.

I quickly looked away.

“Before that… Put some clothes on.”

“Yes.”

Seina puts on her clothes that have fallen on the floor.

She almost caught a glimpse unconsciously, but she managed to keep her mind on the line.

I took a breath and opened my mouth.

“I understand what you mean. I accept your allegiance.”

“Really?”

“Yes, from now on you will become my sword and slaughter countless enemies.”

“I will be loyal to the honor of Werewolf.”

Seina tapped her own chest as if to leave it to her.

As she looks at Seina, who is reliable, her laughter trickles out little by little.

“Oh, and I have a favor.”

“Please? Are you hungry?”

“No, be my teacher.”

How absurd is this?

If she had anything in her mouth, she would have spewed it out.

It was completely unexpected.

“… What does that mean?”

“It’s literally. I have to be stronger As of now, he doesn’t even have a chin.”

From noble mtl dot com

He scratched his forehead.

Her There was no way that I, who could only wield her fists, could give her lessons.

Isn’t this like a pro gamer asking hack opponents to tell them about the game?

‘Is it because of revenge?’

Perhaps, you must have come to the conclusion that you need to become stronger to deal with him.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t teach you.”

“Why?”

“Because you can’t follow my method.”

With the defense core applied, I just need to hit it like a bulldozer.

She was young and had to consider the conditions.

“I see….”

My words cast a shadow on Seina’s face.

At this, I sighed and replied.

“But I can help indirectly.”

“Indirectly?”

“I can’t tell you right now. But I’m not sure about this one. If you go on a journey with me, you will be strong. And sooner or later you will achieve what you want.”

Seina’s pointed ears perked up at my words.

“… Can you do it?”

“I assure you.”

I said that and got up from the bed.

“Let’s get some rest now. You sleep in bed I will sleep on the floor.”

It was a very unaristocratic act.

However, it was better to sleep comfortably on the floor than the two of them awkwardly lying on the same bed.

“Gerard is my master now. I will sleep on the floor.”

“No, I sleep on the floor.”

“Because I sleep.”

We exchanged sparring words like that a few more times.

In the end, I sighed and opened my mouth.

“… Then we will share the same bed.”

It seemed like this would never end.

**

A day has passed.

After waking up early in the morning, Seina and I went to a clothing store to buy extra clothes and even buy two horses.

Thanks to the donations made by the slave traders yesterday.

“Let’s go.”

I got on the horse and looked at Seina.

“Wait a minute.”

She was caressing her horse, but she seemed frightened by the wear wolf.

-Heyyying!

“Don’t be afraid.”

Seina said, gently stroking her horse’s face.

-Shhh! Shhh!

However, a guy who doesn’t calm his excitement easily.

“Hey, stay still before biting.”

When Seina spoke in a cold tone, her words became gentle like a lie.

“Now I am listening.”

“… ….”

It was a moment when the horse looked pitiful.

“Gerard, where are you going?”

Seina said as she climbed onto her horse.

“We are going to Rania Forest.”

“… Rania Forest?”

Rania Forest is a vast forest located in a remote area.

As a result, the monsters were infested because the subjugation was not done, and because it was so wide, people did not even step foot.

“I know there are only monsters there, but is there a reason? Is this the journey to becoming stronger you talked about yesterday?”

Senia said that and her eyes lit up.

That was half right and half wrong.

‘It’s not exactly that you’re getting stronger, it’s that I’m getting stronger.’

Aka Wish (所願).

It is an ability created by the addition of a heart longing for it to come true and an unknown power whose source is unknown.

Because it is extremely rare, few people own it, and some wishes boasted power beyond common sense.

I was thinking of heading to Rania Forest to obtain one of those wishes called ‘maximization’.

“Let’s go.”

I grabbed the horse’s reins.

**

After a day passed, we were able to reach the entrance of Rania Forest.

“It’s all green.”

Have you ever imagined that the whole world is covered in green?

Rania Forest was a vast forest like that.

Because of this, it’s not uncommon to get lost if you get it wrong. Even encountering a monster was truly a slope.

‘Well, that doesn’t apply to me.’

Fortunately, it has been more than 4 years since the game was released. The strategy was already out.

Of course, I’m familiar with all the strategies.

Thus, the chances of getting lost converged to zero.

Rania Forest looks like a complex structure, but its substance is very simple.

If you start from the entrance and move all the way to the left, you can reach your destination without getting lost.

“From here on, we move on foot.”

Seina and I tied our horses at the entrance of Rania Forest.

Monsters in the forest won’t appear until here.

“It smells bad.”

Seina sniffs her nose.

It seems that her excellent sense of smell has already detected the monsters.

“If a monster appears, don’t hesitate to kill it.”

“Okay.”

“Don’t move.”

I relentlessly moved only to the left.

If you keep going like this, you can’t get lost if you want to get lost.

At that time, Seina stood tall.

“It’s a troll.”

Looking to the side of her where she was looking, there was really a troll not far away.

Seina quickly kicked the ground.

Despite the fact that 10m was a long distance away, it took less than 3 seconds to reach the spot where the troll was.

– Great!

The troll swung her huge arm and aimed at Seina.

Seina’s new form disappeared in an instant, and she soon appeared above the troll’s head.

Soon after that, his head split as if sliding.

‘… It’s amazing too.’

To cut a troll’s reputedly tough hide so easily.

As expected, finding her first was a wise choice.

Without Seina, she would never have passed here.

‘Because I’m a one-tool for defense.’

It must have been an embarrassing situation where you could be beaten to death by them, but you couldn’t kill them either.

“Let’s go.”

A cool breeze blew, and she said Seina, who had arrived in front of me before I knew it.

“Good job.”

So we moved on.

In the process, he encountered several more trolls, but all died at the hands of Seina.

And finally.

“I finally arrived.”

I was able to reach my destination.

An old temple covered with moss stands proudly.

The height is high enough that you can’t see it even if you raise your head all the way.

It was a structure full of bravado compared to the size of its contents.

“Seina, you wait here.”

I stopped Seina from climbing the stairs to her entrance.

“Why? We should go in together.”

“I am speaking for you. It’s 1000 times the pain here.”

“… 1000 Times the pain?”

Seina’s pricked ears bend under her.

“By the way, is Gerard okay?”

“I’m fine.”

Actually, this temple was nothing more than a piece of cake in the game.

That’s right, I couldn’t go in and out without using nuclear weapons.

But what about me?

“I will be back in 3 minutes.”

He’s already nuclear-armed.

‘Then let’s go.’

To get the max.
