My Free Life In Another World
Protecting Something Important

The sun began to set, the southern gate of the fortress of Bartham was successfully defended. But the supply of food, arrows, weapons and magic is almost gone.

"Huh. huh... Is this over?"

Raeburn looked extremely exhausted, he had already exhausted all of his magic yet he still held on and held his sword. Everyone knew that Raeburn was a good noble and this time it was clear that Raeburn had forced himself.

"The monster attack is out of sight, sir."

"Then, send some people to get the arrows there. Take also the corpses of orcs and wolves that are still good for food."

"Good, sir."

The soldier Raeburn commanded also looked exhausted. But he still works. He kept working because he thought about his wife and children.

In this world monsters like orcs and wolves used to be made into emergency food. Orc meat such as meat****, if sold meat*** is of course more expensive than orc meat because it is clean. While wolf meat although a bit hard but good to increase stamina if cooked properly.

Raeburn walked to one of the houses near the south. He went in and saw no one.

Seeing that the house was empty Raeburn immediately fell asleep in the room of the house. It was guarded by several soldiers.

Elsewhere, precisely in the capital of the Starkt kingdom.

"Are there any updates from the Bartham fort?"

"Until this moment there is none."

"How did the nobles react?"

"There are some who send help to the fortress of Bartham there are also those who do not care."

"If only we were not cornered by the kingdom of Duld. I'll go there myself and see the situation."

King Claudio was confused by the fate of his kingdom being so bad under his orders. He and Zander continued to think of all means so that the kingdom would be quickly overcome.

The corrupt nobles are getting bigger, the threat of war from the Kingdom of Duld and the monster attacks. What a pity the fate of the Starkt kingdom this year.

"Do we have to buy that new weapon?"

"You mean cannon?"

Zander nodded in response to King Claudio's question.

"We don't have enough money yet. For 1 cannon alone is valued at 10000 platinum coins. That much money could be used to repair the fort."

"It seems like there is no other choice, Your Majesty."

"No, even if we can buy it. Not necessarily that weapon can get into our hands."

"Totally so."

"We'll end it, you'll see me here tonight."

"Sure, Your Majesty."

Zander left the room and returned to his room in the palace. Because the palace is currently in chaos Zander and several other important nobles live in the palace.

After Zander left King Claudio relaxed his body. He was a little pensive and thought.

Will this kingdom end in my time?

A few moments later the door of the room opened. It turned out that the one who opened the door was his wife Claudio, he was named Claudia. Their names are similar and their relationship is very good, they also help each other when there is a problem.

Claudio did not even accept a wife or concubine. For Claudio, Claudia is everything. Everyone was envious of their harmonious relationship.

"Had enough rest... Dinner's ready and the kids are waiting for you."

"Yes thank you, Claudia. You're the best wife."

"That's my job, let's get there together."

Finally they walked together and joined hands to leave a room full of paper and messy.

Claudio looked at Claudia who continued to sniff and said in his heart.

'Whatever happens I will protect you, even if my life is at stake.'

On the base of island X there was a crowd of soldiers. The central headquarters had sent a lot of supplies and soldiers.

The number of soldiers on island X is currently around 300 people and logistics and other personnel around 200 people. Heavy equipment such as bulldozers, excavators, asphalt finisher, drum roller and penumatic roller. Although all the heavy equipment was only 1 unit each, but thanks to everyone working an airplane runway only a few hours have been made.

Although there is no threat of monsters but there are still bears and wolves that can attack at any time.

The night had come so the soldiers and workers were already resting. They have fun like making campfires, singing and laughing.

Likewise in the monster forest base, they were having fun. Supplies there have also been filled, although they could not build a runway but they managed to make a helipad. They also still had the threat of monster attacks from around.

They've set up wire barriers, mines and built moats of protection. Some towers have also been built, although only made with wood, the tower is very useful to pay attention around. There was also a sniper group that built their post on top of the tree, a brilliant idea to seek safety in the middle of a forest of many ferocious beasts.

"Major Gregor here's your dinner."

Lieutenant Harald brought 2 bowls and approached Major Gregor.

"Thank you, just put it on that table."

Major Gregor was busy. He was tidying up the documents and checking them. It seems easy but actually it requires a high level of accuracy. Because the document concerns everyone who is in the camp.

The documents contained the number of bullets, weapons and such. Because tonight there will be a storm, so no help will be sent tonight. So food and weaponry would be a problem.

Their sharp weapons only had machetes, axes and army knives. The rest are firearms that require ammunition.

The night and the forest are the natural enemies of man. If we are careful, we may not see the sun tomorrow.

"Rest first Major. If you're sick we'll have trouble if there's an attack."

"You're right."

They also eat together. The food on the table is handmade simple and they sit on chairs which are also handmade.

"It's going to be a long night. I feel a bad feeling tonight."

After the Major said that suddenly the alarm went off.

"Groans!!!"

"Take each position!"

"Don't be alone and stay together!"

"Preserve post 2!"

Outside, there was a crowd of soldiers.

"Major's intuition is correct but it's too sudden. I just ate 5 spoons of this soto."

"It's not time anymore, we have to go back to the battlefield."

Explosions and gunshots continued to be heard.

"Post 3 has been breached! Send some people there!"

The Major had just come out and saw a soldier running while shouting.

"Letnan you go to the control room and ask for air support!"

"Good!"

The lieutenant immediately ran away leaving Major Gregor.

Major Gregor also ran, he ran to the armory and took the M240 weapons as well as a bag full of ammunition. He also took some grenades and an Uzi that he placed on his thigh.

The figure of him after wearing his equipment like a rambo that is usually in the film. Carrying a machine gun, muscular and has a creepy look.

"Oi You and your team take care of this place. Don't let a monster rule the armory!"

"Good, Sir!"

After that Major Gregor immediately ran to the front line. It is strange to see him who runs, because the weight of the M240 alone is 12 KG plus a bag weighing 2 KG. Not to mention the armor he was wearing. But the Major can still run like an employee who is late to the office.

That night the light of fire was seen up to the fortress of Bartham. Plus the silence of the night the sound of the explosion was also heard up there. The voice rang out until it woke Raeburn and the sleeping soldier.

Of course that made Raeburn wonder.

'What really happened?'

But Raeburn kept thinking ahead and began to order his troops to prepare for the bad thing that would happen.
