While we walked through the forest I observed the battle between the orcs and the human army through the transmission link.I was surprised to find that the orcs weren't stomped just yet they were putting on an incredible struggle for their lives wielding huge axes killing 5 to 8 humans at once with one cleave getting wounded multiple times and still standing like a mountain,but in the end the orcs were outnumbered without a doubt even their tribe as strong as they were couldn't possibly fight this many humans on their own the wounds that were being inflicted to those looked to me like ant bites stinging a beetle,individually the ants are weak,but as time goes on multiple ants will join and bring down the beetle overrunning the whole tribe in one go killing everyone be it adult or child the slaughter was endless and also tragic on its own.
The slimes that was overlooking this battle field had an bird eyes view over the situation the battle cries and shaking ground was incredible as my eyes swept up and right finally fixating onto a line of horsemen that were sitting on horse back calmly observing the battle field their demeanor showed that they didn't have the slightest intention on joining the battle field and one horsemen in particular caught my eye...
The silver knight ? I just call him that since he was the most sparkling one his facial appearance was also above average,but his eyes were bad..rotten in a senses not murderous or valiant like I expected him to be,but arrogant and cruel as he continued to stare into the field with a blank expression on his face...
From their attire I could guess that they were some kind of generals or commanders in this fight,but if so then I couldn't see a shred of strategy in this fight they were simply making all of the soldiers in this army charge at the tribe killing a lot of unnecessary lives at that too...from what I could judge the original number of this army should be around 200 to 300 people all of them seem to be decently trained soldiers who have a adequate amount of skill with the weapon they are wield,but now these soldiers are being used to simply charge in and die like a cannon fodder 1 live is being sacrificed to inflict 1 or 2 slashes or stabs not even killing the opponent and just wearing them down...as I said wasteful spending in this case human lives....not that I care of course.
I judged that at the end of this fight half or more of the soldiers would die and on the other hand this wasn't really bad since these soldiers wouldn't be able to salvage anything from this field and bring it back.I could just come along and take everything be it sword shield armor and other necessities to my own since I didn't have a limit to carry items...I liked my lips for a moment a bit greedily...
Feeling that it was enough I disconnected from the transmission and concentrated back on the road again hasumi who was standing by my side supported me while we walked so I wouldn't trip down onto the ground I smiled at her and thanked her for doing that while patting her head at the same time which she seemed to enjoy a lot.
The other 2 saw that and made small envious expressions to it,but looked away once again and continued to watch the road in case of a monster attack.
It had been a few minutes since we left the base we were actually halfway through the road and about to meet up with glasses girls group on the way I wanted to check on the situation with the human army so I let hasumi lead my body while I walked I also thought of what to do when I would arrive at glasses girls camp and simply maid a small schedule for myself while checking my own inventory for the items I needed.
The 4 of us were quiet throughout the march it was understandable since we needed to keep our attention to the forest so we wouldn't get ambushed by something,we walked carefully and moderately we even encountered a few beasts that we could take along as presents to glasses girls group I was going to cook anyways and after another few minutes we finally arrived at their base.
Walking forward I could see the wooden wall from afar until finally I reached it and entered the main entrance...
-wah ? SORRON you came !
The moment I entered the base a very energetic greeting could be heard directed at me,confused I looked to my left and met with a blond haired girl whose clothing was a bit baggy her eyes were brown and bright for some reason as she approached us...
-Oh its nice to see you again louis...
-FOR FUCKS SAKE I AM VALERIA YOU SHIT HEAD !
She immediately shouted back her smiling face turning into a ugly scowl as she waved her makeshift wooden spear around pouting and almost looking as if she was about to cry,this action aroused the hostility of the girls next to me since it looked like she was threatening me with her loud speech and weapon waving seeing this I immediately told them that she wasn't trying to hurt me or anyone else and was just joking around,they understood,but still kept a sharp eye on the girl.
Our little commotion had brought out multiple stares towards us,there weren't a lot of people currently present on the field only 3 to be exact with louis included of course.
-Didn't expect you to arrive so early...
Glasses girl said as she walked out of the cave very sleepy...it was understandable that she was in such state it was really early 6 or 7 o'clock maybe the sun had only risen a few hours ago not everyone would wake up so early.
I nodded my head acknowledging and stepped forward towards glasses girl my demeanor was ice cold I wasn't carefree or anything and just acted the way I thought of as polite giving glasses girl my hand for a handshake..
She took it of course with a small smile and glanced behind me looking at the 3 hobgoblins who came to guard me she also noticed the 2 fire slimes that were colored crystal red a curious light shined on her eyes as she said.

-I see that you didn't bring your army with you this time...
I nodded and said.
-It is bad to be flashy all the time and bringing everyone is just overkill..
From glasses girls side another individual popped up it was also someone I knew as she stepped forward waving at me with her refreshing smile.
-Hi !
Blondie said which I returned with my own wave...for a moment I glanced behind her back and noticed that a lot of people were coming out of the cave not really coming out just standing at the entrance looking at my arrival with a lot of curiosity and hidden fear surprisingly I couldn't see a single guy in that group...
Anyways after glasses girl and I exchanged our greetings we proceeded to talk with each other about the current state of affair that was going on I kept a few glances towards the entrance of the cave seeing the lot of girls watching us from afar was a bit distracting not gonna lie.
Glasses girls and my exchange was nothing new we already talked about everything yesterday when I told her to that I would come and help them right now I was keeping myself busy setting up the camp fire to prepare breakfast for everyone glasses girl tagged along with me asking me different topics some of which didn't even matter to the current situation,but I answered them anyways just because I found it fun to interact this way,she basically drilled me about my entire life like my age where I lived what I liked doing and so on I didn't ask anything myself and just concentrated on the pot.
Glasses girl stopped asking me questions after she saw the fire slime use its
-Its my skill...I am a tamer so to say...
-A tamer ?...
Glasses girl repeated hearing my answer she seemed to be quiet surprised and after hearing it she made a sidelong glance towards the female hobgoblins who were standing to my side her eyes were very appraising firstly looking at their faces and then going down checking out their bodies with raised eyebrows.
Their figures were very attractive and adding with the fact that I said that I was a tamer made glasses girl look at me with a different light in her eyes she was suspicious of something,but didn't voice it and just narrowed her eyes at me almost making me guilt trip through her look...
-What ?
I couldn't take it and asked her,my sudden question brought surprise to glasses girl as she jumped back a few steps and spoke,her voice cracking.
-N..nothing !
I could see her face flush all over and at that very moment blondie and louis also joined the conversation,the moment me and glasses girl decided to make a "Diplomatic" conversation both of them seemed to be called out by the other girls inside the cave now coming back both of them made small awkward smiles while greeting both of us I nodded my head and just continued to make a big fire the 3 of them just kept quiet and stared at my work.
Judging that the flames was enough I raised my palm and directly summoned the pot onto the raging flames of the camp fire the sudden appearance of pot made the girls wide eyed and speechless even the ones who were standing at the entrance were astound by this,looking at the three I wondered why the looked so surprised since I showed them this before..
Anyways they didn't question the pot and just continued looking at my preparation with a lot of interest in their eyes it was as if my chore had turned into a show which was weird,but I could understand the way I was doing it wasn't normal at all they weren't really used to the mechanics of the world and I do this practically everyday without a care in the world.
-Ehm...do you need help ?
While I was standing and thinking about what to cook up blondie quickly approached and asked to help.
-yeah actually you can start cutting the vegetables while I prepare the water...step back for a moment...
Hearing my words blondie nodded her head and started to walk back a few steps I also stepped forward and raised both of my palms invoking the
Walking beside the ice table I hovered my palm on top of it and started going to the left,bellow my palm 3 cutting boards appeared out of nowhere with them another 3 knives,finally I stepped next to the table and created a pile of different kinds of vegetables making them also appear out of nowhere.
Finishing with my preparation I looked at blondie indifferent and told her to start working,blondie nodded her head and started exchanging glances with glasses girl and louis who evenly exchanged those strange glances after a few seconds the 3 girls finally decided to work too and dice the vegetables for me meanwhile I was standing next to the pot staring into the water waiting for it to boil,but as I was waiting louis suddenly came up to me her eyes were sparkling very brightly as she asked me.
-Are you santa or a fairy ?
My face was blank for a moment as I considered the question..
-Both
