Tsuki Ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu
Chapter 69: Hibiki Difficulty

The battle began without sound.

Completing this type of ceremonial speech with the Goddess without any problems, both the imperial and royal forces were given the blessing of the Goddess. At the same time, the demon race should have received half the curse.

Hibiki was uncomfortable thinking that the Gritonia hero would do something secretly, but in reality she read straight from the paper and her speech ended without any tension.

The royal forces started their movement exactly as scheduled and made contact with the enemy. Hibiki and the others, who were quite far behind the frontlines, felt the atmosphere of the battlefield with their skin.

But the situation is a little different from expectations.

It was certain that the allied forces increased quite a lot. Even the half-doubtful Hibiki could clearly see that the power of the spell was actually doubled.

However, he did not feel their enemy was halved. This was not like Hibiki himself who entered the battlefield to confirm but, they did not seem to weaken until they were halved.

Even so, the progress of the battle went well. The hyuman side had attacked several times in the field and spread the demon race as if tearing a paper tear. There was not even a single instance where their side was forced to retreat.

It was an advance that would make one think the only thing left was the inside of the fortress. The kingdom and also the empire pushed its troops to the front of the fortress. The front of the fortress was wide open by the demon itself. As a result, quite a number started flooding the fort.

High spirits. It was only a matter of time before they could attack the inside of the fortress.

But all the series of events in this battle were carried out without the help of Hibiki and the others, and the empire had yet to make any reports of the appearance of the 4th armed general. All these points made Hibiki doubtful. The alarm inside Hibiki's head rang with full force. They were trying to tell Hibiki something.

"Ne, Navy. It's kind of weird. No matter the situation, this is too easy. This place is an impregnable fortress right? " (Hibiki)

“Yes, there's no way this will end without us doing anything. Could it be that the hero of empire-sama did quite a lot of participation? " (Ocean Force)

Hibiki cleanly ignored the last part of her words and simply put the fortress point of view in her mind. Even the mercenaries who had a lot of experience on the battlefield, the Navy, felt this oddity. This may mean something is really going to happen. His instincts tried to tell him something, but due to his lack of experience, he was unable to think of anything. That's vexing.

"But! As long as we conquer the gates, the battle will be decided! Soon we will be able to take down Fort Stella! Finally we will be able to make the first move to revive Elision! ” (Bredda)

Bredda is really excited. He was in a state where there was no way he could think rationally. Even Wudi who was in line with Chiya had an unusual expression of excitement upon looking into the battlefield.

Chiya was getting used to the battlefield, but she still felt fear for the air inside. It seemed like he could somehow remain steadfast by staying by everyone's side.

True, Bredda and Wudi state tell about the battlefield. Literally a direct attack from the front. There was no empire or empire on the battlefield. They held slightly different directions, but the two armies gathered into one at the fortress and headed towards the gate.

“I can't ignore this bad feeling. Whoa, Chiya-chan. Just in case, set up a suspended spell formation for the defensive barrier and high-speed movement "(Hibiki)

“But doing that for everyone is impossible. It would make me lose my eye to even do our environment "(Chiya)

The weak statement of Chiya. The amount of magic power was not directly related to the reach of the spells that could be achieved. He was not good at expanding his spell area.

“If only party, I can do high-speed movement. But all units are impossible. Besides I'm not a spirit ”(Wudi)

Wudi, by contrast, does not have as much magic power as Chiya. Even if he was able to control it, the magic power that could be used could not overcome it.

“Then I don't mind if it's just us. We didn't do anything, so please "(Hibiki)

While having a confused feeling, they both accepted the request of the hero. They formed a spell and left it in a state of alert. They're still party heroes. This level of achievement was possible for them.

(If it were me, what would I have prepared? The thing I would do if the imperial army and the royal army gathered in one place was ..) (Hibiki)

Hibiki. Cliffs on both sides of Fort Stela. Originally the fort served as an obstacle. Instead, he did not understand why the demon race had the front of the fortress, which was originally narrow, open before the battle, making it easier to attack. To put soldiers on the cliff and have them attack from above. But it's something they've done. The army received attacks from the top of the fort and the cliffs.

What he thought next was the difference in height. The fortress was at a high position and the hyuman army attacked from the bottom of the hill road. But it's not a slope with a lot of slope. From the present conditions, it seemed like one could use the falling stones at the front gate, but there was no reasonable reason to make the enemy so close to them just to do so.

They can also inundate castles, but it takes a lot of water to do so. Just like falling rocks, it was like counting the seasons.

(Could ...the wall where the walls on the left and right close like in the treasure hunter movies? That was precisely what one would use when the enemy moved forward on the narrow path. What are they planning in this world? Well, if I can at least make it so that we can return to the camp, we should be able to cope with almost anything that can come...maybe) (Hibiki)

First of all, the strategy this time has many points that Hibiki does not understand. And it is not only related to enemy soldiers. It's also about the hero who by the time his friends get involved with him, they start singing praises. He can't understand. It was true that Hibiki did not have much experience in night war, but if they had trouble doing so, they should at least do so when the moon had not yet come out. And if it's possible in cloudy weather with few stars, then that will make the plan more solid, that's what Hibiki thinks. It seemed that the Empire was quite firm with the day, but even after the plan had begun, Hibiki was unable to understand its true meaning.

While thinking that, he looked at his own army.

This is madness. This is really the space where madness reigns. Although the yearning for the fortress was right in sight, the soldiers who were on the front lines could only see the gate and its surrender. Especially in the battleground before the gate that usually only had frontline soldiers, there were units from the middle area and even spell casters that had to be behind. Furthermore, the same thing happened with the Imperial army.

In front of the fortress of the demon race that stole their friends and family. For Hibiki, this place has not stolen anyone from her yet but, she is beginning to understand the little meaning of the words of the madness they unleashed.

Even the calm Navy showed a flame in his eyes that could not be hidden. The only ones who felt fear were probably only Chiya and herself, that was what Hibiki thought.

He saw the demon race as an enemy, as an existence to be exterminated, was what he believed in and thought he understood. But he did not realize that from a strange thought, he had subconsciously counted the death of the demon race as the death of a human. These are the remnants of the way of thinking from the previous world. To be honest, to Hibiki, the outer appearance of the demon race was as a human.

(No, probably the same as Tomoki. After all, he is a person who comes from Japan. It was only if his previous attitude was only him * pretending to be tough*) (Hibiki)

In the boy who looked like he was overconfident at his level, Hibiki set a "maybe" on him while thinking. Living in a world where you usually cannot see the death of people up close, there is no way one can adapt on this battlefield easily.

“Ah, the gate is..”

"Opening!"

Naval and Bredda. Hibiki thought it was her own words, but she felt relieved that it would only end with her useless fear.

The echoing cries of the united hyuman army echoed across the battlefield like furious roars.

At that moment.

The futile fear that Hibiki had thrown away, suddenly became real.

The ground's collapsed.

In a fortress that was above a sloping hill road, just before the gate, the ground opened. Everything was.

It was as if to regard the cries of the hyumans as a signal.

It collapsed in the breath. Saying it more accurately, it disappeared. Underneath, the darkness. Even if it was already night, the scene below still felt like deep hades.

Silence for a few seconds. So that land has become a product of magic huh. Not even a sound came from the ground which “ruck”.

(Land ... disappeared?!) (Hibiki)

Is it a surprise or stupidity? A strange space with no sound spread on the battlefield.

How many managed to understand that the land had disappeared like the hero of Limia?

“Wudi! Oh, chiya-chan! ” (Hibiki)

Hibiki had prepared to be on guard, so she could react faster than anyone else. It was a situation where the two spells prepared could work. In a situation where one would normally only ask for high-speed movement support magic, just in case, there was a magic formation suspended above that prepared by Chiya. Great game by Hibiki.

After a few seconds later, his spell was activated and Hibiki's party was able to dodge it. A faint light blue barrier was also activated and a magic defense dome was created.

“Aaa.. aaahh.

The voice of the fallen ally was heard by the party.

There was no way of knowing the extent to which this hole continued, but since they did not prepare preventive measures for it, the results awaiting them were already predictable.

Looking at it objectively, half of the soldiers who went crazy and entered the frontline disappeared within a second.

On a reality that could only be considered absurd, Hibiki could not say a word. The only ones left from the royal army were the spellcasters in the rear row, bow units and knight units positioned with the nobles in the middle.

Partial destruction .. no, greater damage than that.

While continuing to pray that the fallen people can overcome it in their own way, Hibiki, without caring about the place, said the statement, shouting words to his party as if trying to hold back the screams that were trying to get out.

“Wudi, for now back! Please try to move backwards as much as possible. Naval and Bredda will come with me and find as many remaining units as possible, Chiya keep her protector okay ?! ” (Hibiki)

Hibiki. It was something to be expected but. arrows and stones, as well as spells of various colors started raining down on them.

“... The Navy, Bredda. Plan change. Until we can get back, intercept! Get out too, Horn! We'll survive! ” (Hibiki)

While Hibiki called out from the silver belt of the guardian wolf beast, Horn, his words were also to encourage himself.

Translator: Some may be as confused as I was in the last section. Wudi was supposed to use "high-speed movement" which was a teleportation skill, they would teleport out of the hole and then search everyone. But it looks like they're still in the hole with only a barrier to make them float, perhaps? And a lot of attacks started coming down while they were still in the hole. I don't have a clear picture of their current position.
