A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War! - FSAGW Chapter 57 (Part 2)

It was his fault for asking Bisel in the first place.

How did things end up like this?

“By the way, Bisel, hasn’t Jansen said anything yet?”

“Well, according to Banson, he said they just need to go a little further. It seems he doesn’t intend to enter the Gami-an Great Plains. It’s funny enough that he wants to go in that direction in the first place.”

“About two more days in this direction.”

The path was slightly different, but he had passed through that area before. When he finished training at the training camp and was assigned to Gami-an. As far as he could remember, there was really nothing in that direction. At most, occasional small monsters would appear.

Moreover, Jansen was a top-ranking merchant. It didn’t seem like a place where a merchant seeking profit would go.

“He seemed a bit strange from the first time I met him.”

When he first met Jansen, he felt a little uneasy.

However, since Kaiyan had confidence that he could escape with his current abilities, he simply accepted the request.

But as things got weirder, he became more suspicious of Jansen. What on earth was Jansen trying to achieve by heading northwest?

“Oh! Kaiyan, no need to worry, look over there. It’s the monsters.”

“Hmm… Orcs.”

Bisel pointed in the direction with a considerable distance, and there were orc packs lurking around.

“How about that? Feeling a little relieved now?”

“Ha… that’s not the reason. Anyway, I feel a bit more at ease now.”

Looking at the simple-minded Bisel, he felt like he was overthinking things. It could be a coincidence that various events overlapped and created this situation, as Bisel mentioned.

Thump!

“Everyone, it’s time to work! Orc packs!”

Bisel knocked on the carriage and shouted, and the carriage gradually stopped as the mercenaries jumped out.

“Ah, finally! Bisel, how many are there?”

“Um… about 20 or so?”

“20? That seems like quite a lot.”

In a war, one might think that orcs are insignificant, but considering that a single orc has combat power equivalent to a D-ranked mercenary, 20 cannot be ignored as a formidable force.

Moreover, there were only 10 mercenaries, including him.

“What’s there to worry about when Kaiyan is here?”

“That’s right! Orcs are nothing to a B-ranked mercenary!”

“Ha…”

A sigh escaped him. He wondered why B-ranked mercenaries are believed so blindly.

In reality, even if they were called B-ranked mercenaries, they would be only slightly better than veteran soldiers.

“I will take the lead. Please support from the rear.”

“Great! Let’s go!”

“Verium, Katina! Provide support with your bows from behind!”

Approaching the orc packs, the mercenaries drew their weapons and formed a formation while gathering the carriage at the back.

Chweeak? Chweak!

Chweeaeek!

“They’re coming.”

As they got closer, the orcs, who finally noticed them, made strange noises and charged at them.

“Time flies.”

It felt like it was just yesterday when they were engaged in fierce battles.

Even though over 20 orcs were rushing towards them, Kaiyan didn’t feel a hint of fear. These monsters were nothing more than warm-ups for him.

Thwack!

“I dislike the foul smell.”

Kaiyan swung his sword with pure strength, striking horizontally.

“Chwiiiaaak!”

The orc creatures hastily raised their weapons, but…

Crack!

Swoosh!

The clumsy orc warriors fell to the ground, their bodies trembling. The impact was so powerful that it was hard to believe Kaiyan hadn’t used Aura. While it may have been inferior to a knight’s strike with Aura, it was undoubtedly a formidable blow. If the knights didn’t use Aura, they wouldn’t be able to deliver a more devastating strike than this.

“Two on the left, one on the right.”

Without stopping his steps, Kaiyan evaded the belated attacks of the orcs who clumsily swung their weapons. It was a straightforward attack with no tricks or deception.

Whoosh!

Using his left leg as the axis, he slightly lowered his waist to dodge one attack.

And while still in the lowered position, he struck the orc in front of him.

Thud!

“Kwiaaak!”

“Too slow.”

Seizing the opening, he countered the attack coming from the right with a shoulder charge.

Thud!

“Finishing thrust through the heart.”

Thud!

The orc warrior grabbed his chest, gasping for air and making choking sounds. Killing the orc creatures was effortless. There was no sense of excitement or thrill in it.

“Orcs are just amusement. Wait…”

As Kaiyan systematically slaughtered the orc warriors one by one, a thought suddenly crossed his mind.

Was there really a difference between me killing them like this and the person who massacred the people at the entrance of the Louis Plains? Just a simple amusement?

If that were the case…

There was a high probability that the person responsible for slaughtering Smith and his companions shared the same mindset as me. The act of killing dozens of people for mere amusement.

“Yeah, the scattered corpses. It was all for amusement. That person enjoyed the massacre.”

Finally, everything fell into place. The reason why that person left behind traces and disappeared with such confidence was clear. They were proud of their actions, leaving behind evidence.

“But who exactly are you?”

A person with a completely opposite ideology to mine, someone who kills for pleasure. I’ve never heard of such a person, even from the experienced Jeff. A person who takes pleasure in killing dozens of people.

And that too, in a place far away from the city.

Crack.

Between the tightly clenched fist, a warm pain seeped through, and blood trickled down.

“…If you appear before me, I will tear you apart, piece by piece.”

Kaiyan hoped that the killer would show up before him soon. He would use all his strength to kill him to avenge Smith and prevent him from committing further atrocities.
