I Returned as an FFF-Class Witch Doctor

Episode 70

“As expected. One supply is awesome.”

“It’s a little warm now, master!”

Damian draws an arc around his mouth while wearing the equipment provided from the Aldeon Fortress supply window.

It was an outfit almost identical to that of Night Crow.

Despite its not-so-thick thickness, it has surprisingly excellent warmth and boasts elasticity similar to that of most tights, so you don’t feel any discomfort while moving.

Equipment that boasts quality that you wouldn’t think of as supplies for barren frontline units.

“I need to wash this.”

Seruk!

And while Damian took off the < wild boar hat > he had been sticking to to hide his identity, he picked up a helmet that looked like a hawk’s head at a glance and began to put it on his head.

“Pia? Is the owner a chick too?”

“It’s not? Is it a crow?”

< Night Chaser > set.

It was a supply privilege given to those who participated in the defense of Aldeon fortress every year, and it was the most optimized armor set for activities in Berthas Plateau, an extreme environment.

“Money is tight. I was wondering how to make up for the puncture this month.”

“The owner is a jerk! Isn’t it just a matter of spending a few pennies and buying clothes!”

“Uh huh, you keep doing that so there are no snacks this month?”

“Originally, threatening with food is the most salty idol!!!”

“Okay dude. Be quiet.”

Damian moved his body with his hatchet eyes open and the fluttering bundle in his pocket.

Certainly good goods were good goods.

Although it was not a piece of equipment imprinted with divine protection or magic that allows you to exert tremendous power, this < Night Chaser > set provided by Aldeon Fortress was designed with a focus on dealing with extreme environments and monsters. .

As a result, it could be said to be a high-efficiency item enchanted from lightweight magic that enables comfortable movement as if wearing cloth, to homeostasis magic to maintain body temperature, and stamina recovery magic for long scouting and strategic marching.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a perfect fit for Damian.

In addition, if it even has the effect of increasing anti-personnel defense to supplement the defense of leather armor, it is a part that explains why they were able to save this much against monsters crossing the border

… It’s useless. Isn’t it?”

“Haha, yes. What’s the point if I die?”

So, Damian shrugged at the words he heard next to him, while turning the rune of insight to the appearance of the Night Crow he had encountered earlier to confirm his information.

[Giorno di Yekachev]

The eldest son of the Yekachev family who survived the political purge. Losing everything, he threw himself into Aldeon Fortress, and no one who knows his past remains. Uses Night Crow’s swordsmanship and Yekachev’s swordsmanship at the same time.

Race: Human

Affiliation: Night Crow

Level: 99

Title: Last Survivor / Shadow Sword / One Who Breaks Through the Limits / Monster Slayer / Boss of Steel

< Giorno Di Yekachev >.

It was the name of a powerful person who subdued Hye-eun, who was approaching with a heated spirit, with a single knife.

“Looking at the dangerous smell, you don’t seem to be as young as the girl from before. But don’t forget that this is a place where even seasoned warriors die every day. Only monsters will take away your corpse.”

“Ah yes.”

“good. Commander’s instructions for the defense of Aldeon Fortress will begin.”

Damian turned in the direction Giorno pointed.

It was the central square of the fortress.

Like him, the adventurers and continental people who changed into the < Night Chaser > set gathered in a round circle, and the number of supporters for fortress defense battles boasted a number that at first glance encompassed hundreds of people.

“Captain, you are entering. All troops ready.”

chuck! chuck! chuck! chuck! chuck!

And Damian, along with hundreds of Night Crows who appeared in perfect order from both ends of the central plaza at the same time one of the Aldeon Fortress soldiers spoke.

I could see a man with white hair standing on the podium under their protection.

‘indeed.’

A middle-aged man with long hair brushed back and tied like horsehair, giving off a shaggy beard and sideburns that gave off the air of a silver lion.

It was “Michael Sinister”.

“Nice to meet you guys. It’s Mikhail Sinister. First of all, I highly appreciate the courage of the gentlemen who voluntarily came to this cursed place.”

“Some people come here hoping for personal prosperity, while others come here for unavoidable circumstances. And someone else might have come here with a mission to protect humanity from monsters outside the borders.”

“But this is a fucking land where none of the things you want exist.”

“It is a place where there is nothing more and nothing less than killing just to avoid being killed.”

“In the first place, this place was the land of monsters, and it has been, and will be, in the future.”

“Starting today, you guys will carry out the mission of protecting this absolute line of defense from their demons as well as preparing for the coming twin moon day under the control of Aldeon Fortress.”

“It is only 15 days, but it will be a tough fight. Maybe this will be the last fort.”

“So don’t forget. The only thing that can protect you is yourself. more.”

Damian brushed his chin at Mikhail’s words after a brief welcome and explanation.

It was such a simple instruction that the hundreds of people who had gathered for him were overshadowed.

Even the people gathered in the central square did not vomit at Mikhail’s instructions, and they had heard about the defense of Aldeon Fortress in advance.

I just have a subtle excitement in my heart under this far-off night where I don’t know if it’s deep midnight or dawn.

“Everyone will be busy fighting after today, so if you have any questions, ask them now. I will take questions with a raise. Any questions?”

And the moment Mikhail nodded at the applicants under the podium and asked the doctor if any of them had any questions.

“Um…then what are we supposed to do from now on?”

“What kind of monsters do we have to deal with?”

As several of the volunteers raised their hands, they asked Mikhail how the defense of Aldeon Fortress was going.

It was the most basic and key question.

“As you all know, Aldeon Fortress is located at the edge of Berthas Plateau. In other words, it is located at the extreme point of a plateau that spreads out like a fan.”

“With this positional advantage, we have been able to block the monsters on the border, and on the contrary, it can be said that they periodically invade Aldeon Fortress here.”

“So, until the day of the twin moon comes, you will be classified as a reconnaissance group, an extermination group, and a pioneering group, and will carry out the mission to prepare for an enemy invasion.”

“On the day of the twin moons, you will have to do everything in your power to fend off the monsters.”

“It can be said that the monsters are irregular and heterogeneous, and have unspecified abilities and shapes that even the fortress cannot identify.”

“I think this will have solved your curiosity to some extent.”

As Mikhail snapped his fingers as he answered the applicants’ questions, one of the Night Crows behind him took a step forward.

It was one of the practitioners under him.

Although we couldn’t see all of his face with the mask he was wearing, he was a man with impressive scars running diagonally across his face.

“The details will be explained by Peterson here so that you can move under control. Keep in mind that control is all indispensable to our survival.”

And when Mikhail finished with those words and went down the podium, the sound of one or two people began to leak into the central square of the fortress, where only silence was lingering.

“what?”

“Is this the end?”

“Not much for setting the mood as if the situation is serious…”

“You say you can just eat it raw?”

Of course, Mikhail explained the outline of the mission operation, but that was because it was not enough information for the applicants who came through warp gates across the country to easily understand.

“Ay X arm! I’m not joking right now. What the hell are you doing with this many people gathered?”

drain!

And the moment when one of the many volunteers gathered in the central square spits on the floor and curses at the man named Peterson and the Night Crow standing on the platform, as if to listen.

“First, Night Crow, in accordance with the decree of I, Adelecia von Wolkroft, Emperor of the Imperial Khan, I give full authority to everything that happens in Aldeon Fortress, and I acknowledge that I have the right to indemnify myself for any crimes, including murder. .”

“Second, according to the decision of the World Security Agreement, all countries must dispatch a certain force from Aldeon Fortress on the day of the twin moon, when the two moons overlap, and the force must be equivalent to the absolute defense line of world security and borders.”

“The Third Aldeon Fortress does not belong to any country’s monarch or territory, and if invaded for personal reasons, it is subject to sanctions by the Empire Khan and other world security agreements.”

Soon, as Peterson stood on the podium, an edict about Aldeon Fortress flowed out of his mouth, and at the same time, the Night Crows standing on either side of him pulled out their broadswords from their waists as if they were making a promise.

“Therefore, the unknown adventurer in front of me can also take your life at any time according to the edict.”

“…!”

It was such a look that you could feel its savagery even in the darkness that could cut off a man’s head at any moment.

“As of now, all volunteers who participated in the defense of Aldeon Fortress must follow the instructions of the Night Crow so that they can hear each other. As announced earlier, Night Crow acts according to the decree of Adelecia von Walcroft, Emperor of the Imperial Khan, and there are no exceptions.”

“Summary execution for disobeying orders. Execution in case of defiance. Execution on the run. All other acts against Aldeon Fortress are subject to summary execution.”

“You see? soldier.”

The hunk’s face went blank for a moment as Peterson’s careless words poured at him like machine gun fire.

It was because Peterson’s words and Night Crow’s momentum were unusual.

Peterson’s title when he just came over from the warp gate and his title after completing all supplies from the supply camp are different.

“Then I will know that there is no objection and move on.”

Buggy Bukkake!

And Peterson, standing still and speechless as if nailed to the ground, stepped forward to the podium and addressed all the volunteers in the central square.

“If you want to end your life here and now, twitching your snout is a pretty good option. Because that would be less painful than being torn apart by monsters outside the boundaries.”

It was a word that made all the applicants in the central square shut their mouths as if his height of about 2 meters had met an ogre at first glance.
