The Extra Wants To Live

Chapter 55: Second Battle [2]



Catherine slightly lowered her head and whispered softly in Carl's ear.

"Since this is a battle between wooden fences, there is no need for Lord Carl to participate in the battle like yesterday. It is enough to just show his soldiers that Lord Carl is here and keep his place."

Carl shook his head slightly at Catherine's words.

"It is efficient for me, who recovers quickly, to keep moving. It will help morale, and from a practical standpoint, it's better than nothing."

Catherine seemed to have nothing to say in response to Carl's calm words. Carl smiled slightly and said to her.

"Thank you for your concern. But I came to lead the punitive force and subdue the gnolls, not to have fun and be protected."

"…Sorry. I said something presumptuous."

"No, you are right to be concerned. I will be careful not to put myself in a dangerous situation."

If Carl were to be seriously injured or even die, the soldiers would immediately disintegrate as a result of their soaring morale. Such situations must be avoided.

Carl and Catherine closed their mouths and quietly looked at the western forest.

The sound of Corbin carrying a spear frantically moving around on the wooden fence and encouraging the soldiers tickles my ears.

And at some point, Carl felt a shiver run down her spine.

"Master Carl."

Catherine, who was glaring into the darkness, calls out to Carl.

Although her pupils were constricted due to the fire lighting up the wooden fence and she could not see the forest, Catherine could feel alive.

And the same was true for Carl, who had a survival instinct like a wild animal.

"Ready for battle!"

"Attack!"

Chuck! Chuck!

The imperial soldiers responded with loud shouts, raising their spears and putting them on the wooden fence, in response to a loud cry that could not be believed to have come from Carl's small body.

"Ready for battle! Ready for battle!"

Corbin follows suit, giving orders, and the tension of battle begins to build up above the fence.

Yesterday, they were attacked by unimaginable gnolls and everyone almost died.

Nevertheless, the soldiers and conscripts of the country estates united with amazing morale and took up arms without retreating.

There was no crying or trembling from the fear of battle and death.

There was no crying or trembling from the fear of battle and death.

He feel the cool, explosive heat, like an elite soldier.

'Regardless of knowledge and experience, this alone is truly a talent like that of the devil.'

Catherine was thrilled by Carl's strange charisma that made a ragtag group of conscripts look like elite soldiers.

This is enough to kill time even in battles with well-trained regular troops. No, on the contrary, even the regular army would be horrified by this ridiculous fraud.

The sharp fraud seen by an untrained farmer feels like the madness of a fanatic. It's something you don't understand, so it's natural to be afraid.

"The shields of the Morgan Empire are here! Here, we will stand firm and block the roughest waves!"

Just like last night, Carl proudly raised his chin and shouted in a loud voice.

The shaking red cape and red tassels on the helmet catch the eye.

"You all must have seen hundreds of gnolls crumbling like sand before the shield of an empire of only thirty!"

Thud!

Carl slams the handle of the spear he held for the first time today onto the floor.

"Do not be afraid! When fear seizes you and stretches out its black hand, lift your head and see that here stand the shields of the Empire!"

Thud!

When Carl struck down the spear again, the imperial soldiers followed suit and stamped their feet, making a loud noise as one.

As expected, they are soldiers who were trained by the imperial family, so they have good insight and work well together.

Carl went one step further than last night when he cried out for the authority of the emperor and the cause of the empire.

"Do not be afraid of death! Duren, who looks over all things, is watching you as you shed your blood for humanity!"

Carl, who did not depend on God even though he knew that God existed in this world because of Lucas's memory, realized through today's experience how desperately they cling to God.

Carl erased fear from their hearts by crying out for God's name, and also cruelly gave great meaning to death.

However, they did not simply shout for their death.

"Fight as hard as you can! Protect yourself, protect your comrades, and further protect the empire and the human land! And survive and enjoy glory! The glory you enjoy living on this earth is the brightest future that Duren has arranged for you, and the most majestic road leading to paradise!"

There is nothing more passionate than the will to survive.

It is the most primal and therefore the most powerful power that humans have.

Carl gave value to their deaths, and also sang about life, holding on tightly to their will to live.

Carl's cries mixed with the heat of the burning torch and flew high into the dark autumn sky.

The overwhelming smell of a rotting corpse, the stink of an animal, and the sound of a dog barking that hit your eardrums.

And in the darkness, the immeasurable eyes of the beast glow bright yellow in the light of the torch!

"We must take back the land of men, the land of the empire, and our land from that dirty and ugly monster!"

Still, no one retreats in fear.

Carl's shout struck them all on the head, shattering their fear, and ignited a fire in their shriveled chests, making them swell with hot breath.

"For you! Fight for everyone! Don't forget that we are all here together, shoulder to shoulder!"

'We'! A cry for them and him to become one!

Wasn't the person who said that even the most noble member of the imperial family in the empire, the emperor's son, Prince Carl!

An unbearable flame rises from deep within their heart!

"Fight! For everyone!"

"Waaah!"

Shouts erupt like a volcano exploding or thunder crashing down.

The soldiers responded to Carl shout by stamping their feet and banging their shields.

The force was so strong and hot that the gnolls who were running towards the wooden fence were startled and stopped in their tracks.

"Prepare your fire arrows!"

When Gnoll's momentum was completely lost, Corbin wasted no time in giving instructions.

Originally, fire arrows were intended to be fired to scare away gnolls who were chopping axes at wooden fences. But he can't miss this opportunity.

The archers are busy taking arrows wrapped in oiled cloth to the torches and lighting them on fire.

Corbin shouted loudly when he saw that the archers were ready.

"Shoot!"

Toad!

The number of archers is not that large. At best, there were only about 10 of them, and even those couldn't attack properly because they didn't have enough arrows. This is because the arrows could not be collected while taking the corpse.

However, the sight of 10 fire arrows flying at the same time felt threatening to the gnoll, who was intimidated by the force of the soldier soaring through the sky.
