A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War! - FSAGW Chapter 45 (Part 2)

Even after calling several times, there was no response. It was only then that Kaiyan remembered that he was still wearing the toy upside down and quickly lifted the cloth covering his face.

“Uncle Jeff.”

“Woah!”

Booong!

Startled by the sudden call, Uncle Max jumped in surprise, and Uncle Jeff instinctively swung his sword.

“Wait, hold on! It’s me! Kaiyan.”

“Ka-Kaiyan?”

“Is it really you, Kaiyan?”

Truly, they had the reaction of seasoned players. The sword reacted before their words.

“I really am here!”

“No… How did you… Weren’t you scattered in the opposite direction?”

“Well, that’s not important. What’s important is that we’re all alive. Hehe.”

“Kukuk, that’s true.”

“Thank you for being alive!”

Not only Kaiyan, but Uncle Jeff and Uncle Max also confirmed each other’s safety and let out a small laugh.

“But we should figure out how to deal with the group of Frogspawn first.”

While feeling relieved, Uncle Jeff picked up his sword as the approaching Frogspawn came into view.

“Should we escape with the others?”

Although it wasn’t certain if the toy’s function would work on others, if possible, it would be easy to escape with the others from here.

However, Kaiyan was unsure about how to explain the item to Uncle Jeff and Uncle Max.

“Kaiyan, how’s your stamina?”

In the midst of his contemplation, Uncle Jeff asked him.

“I’m in good shape.”

“In that case… Draw your sword.”

“What?”

“We need to defend against the Frogspawn as much as we can, so the knights can defeat that creature.”

While pondering how to escape, being told to draw his sword was unexpected.

Is Uncle Jeff really intending to help the knights? Why?

“To help the knights?”

“Yes.”

“Why? If it’s because of the Frogspawn’s pursuit, I have a way to deal with it.”

“It’s not that.”

Why? Even Kaiyan was willing to give up the old knight to save Uncle Jeff and Uncle Max.

Why does Uncle Jeff, who has no connection to the knights, want to fight for their sake?

“I owe them my life. I have to repay what I owe.”

“Eutcha! Kukuk, I feel the same way.”

Owe them his life? Uncle Jeff and Uncle Max weren’t the type to owe debts and run away.

“…Could it be that the old knight is the one you owe the debt to?”

Setting aside his uneasiness, he asked calmly.

“The old knight? Ah… He is indeed the oldest among the knights.”

“Damn it.”

The response that came was as expected.

His senses were always on target.

He himself owe the old knight, and now Uncle Jeff and Uncle Max had debts as well.

“Let’s deal with the Frogspawn first.”

Now that things had turned out this way, the only remaining option was to deal with the Frogspawn and assist the knights.

“Tarien… You scoundrel.”

Snap.

As the cause of everything, Tarien came to mind, and Kaiyan’s grip on the sword tightened as if it was about to burst.

“Krrrrk!”

“You ugly little… get lost!”

Phwoof!

With no knowledge of what was happening, the approaching group of enlarged Frogspawn was swiftly cut down in a single stroke.

“Kerung!”

Papapak!

Even while spewing blood, the creature did not go down easily, shooting out blackthorns as if to show that it wouldn’t die easily.

“Kaiyan! Get back!”

Thunk! Thwunk!

Uncle Max, who had rushed over, lifted his square shield, which had become his symbol, and deflected the thorns.

“Kheuheuheu… This is driving me crazy.”

“But you’re still laughing, so I guess you still have some leisure. Hup, haaap!”

Phaat!

Leaving Uncle Max, whose face was beaten and swollen, behind, Kaiyan and Uncle Jeff attacked the creatures.

“Kerung?”

“Krrrk?”

As they moved inward, the creatures tried to retreat in confusion.

“It won’t work like that! Kaiyan, stick close and attack!”

“Yes!”

At first, they were defenseless because they didn’t know how the creatures attacked, but once they knew the method, they could minimize the damage.

The creatures couldn’t freely control the thorns they shot out.

In other words, it meant that the Frogspawn could also be hit by the thorns they had fired.

‘Aside from thorn attacks, these creatures don’t have any significant attacks. We just need to keep fighting them.’

“Huaaap!”

Fwoosh-

“Krruk!”

While dozens of Frogspawn were in a state of confusion, unsure of what to do, Kaiyan’s sword began to perform a magnificent dance.

Of course, it would be a deadly dance to the Frogspawn.

“Krrr….”

“You’re dead.”

Plop.

Ding! [You leveled up.]

As the sword was drawn from the bodies of the Frogspawn, a notification rang out, announcing that Kaiyan had leveled up after a long time.

“My stamina has recovered. With this, I can handle the remaining creatures.”

Unlike injuries that could be recovered with healing potions, Stamina would only get back to full when he leveled up.

Well, there might be a method in the shop that could do it, but he hadn’t found it yet.

The most important thing in dealing with monsters is stamina. Leveling up at this time is like a godsend rain during a drought.

“Uncle Jeff, let me take the lead!”

“…Are you sure?”

“Yes. I still have plenty of energy.”

Uncle Jeff, who had been leading the way, seemed quite exhausted and didn’t say anything as he took a step back.

Naturally, when facing a larger number of opponents, the front line would consume more stamina.

‘But the Frogspawn seem quite tired too.’

Unlike when the Frogspawn slaughtered the soldiers, this time, with these Kaiyan and Uncle Jeff sticking close together, the creatures had visibly depleted their stamina.

And they must have been mentally exhausted from constantly seizing opportunities to shoot thorns.

‘But there are still too many of them. If it continues like this, we will tire out first. In that case…!’

Pabak!

As soon as he finished his thoughts, he swiftly leaped forward.

‘Powerful Downward Strike!’

Whooong!

“Krruk? Krrrk!”

As Kaiyan swung his sword, the targeted creature panicked and hurriedly twisted its body to shoot thorns.

Papapak!

Dozens of blackthorns flew towards Kaiyan, who had feigned an attack on the creature.

“It’s a trick, you bastard!”

He had never intended to attack the creature. What he aimed for was to use the creature’s thorns to attack the others.

Bending his waist, dozens of thorns passed over him with tremendous force.

Whoosh! Plop!

“Kreululruk!”

“Keruluk!”

The group of Frogspawn, with their bodies pierced by dozens of thorns, screamed in frustration and collapsed to the ground.

“Don’t underestimate the intelligence of humans, you little bugs.”

Whooong!

“Keruluk!”

He neatly finished off the creature that had become defenseless after shooting out its thorns.

Now, there were only three creatures left, including the one that had retreated after being injured by his sword and seemed to be the leader.

“Now, do you realize who the real predator is?”

To the creatures that had only thought of humans as prey, Kaiyan delivered a decisive blow with his eyes bloodshot.
