The Extra Wants To Live

Chapter 41: First Battle [2]



As Carl move slowly, contrary to his sense of urgency and anxiety, He see lights and noise approaching from afar.

The sight of the torches lined up on the wooden fence shaking violently resembles a crown of fire.

Kkkkkkkk! Wiiiw!

The only sound he can hear is the dog barking.

However, if the sound of that dog barking was made by a bipedal monster the size of an adult man, it would never be taken lightly.

And especially if there are so many that they make the forest roar.

Human sounds were drowned out by it and could not be heard at all, and only the occasional tearing scream could be barely heard.

Carl had goosebumps all over his body and sweat was pouring out.

He can instinctively feel that that place is a limb. If he go in, he will die.

"… Bring the carriage forward! hurry!"

However, Carl strengthened his stomach and gave an order. It cruelly crushes the desire to immediately turn around and run away.

"Get on the carriage, two at a time. We will create a circular formation."

"yes!"

Catherine then gives detailed orders.

Following her orders, the imperial soldiers attach themselves to the carriage and begin driving it.

"Follow closely! If you fail, you will only die!"

Carl looks behind him and shouts loudly.

Hedid it because he was worried that the conscripts might run away.

If a conscript tried to run away from this situation alone, he would die shortly after, but even so, a person's heart cannot always be cold.

So, in a way, it is natural that even if he say this, some people will run away.

"I-I can't do it!"

One of the conscripts, who was holding an ax tightly, turns around and begins to run away.

Carl, who knew well that if someone ran away in this situation, the situation would collapse uncontrollably, he panicked and tried to shout something.

"Leave it alone! It's too late now! They cannot be saved!"

At that time, Catherine shouted in a sharp voice, cutting off Carol's words in advance.

She said, 'Don't run away.' 'If you run, I will kill you.' Instead of saying things like this, she clearly told everyone which side they had to be on to survive.

The guys who were trying to run away after hearing those words noticed and hesitantly ran after the punitive force.

Carl and Catherine's eyes meet.

He was going to say something, but he don't have the time.

Doo doo doo doo!

Shake!

A horse-drawn carriage races at a frantic pace. A wheel gets caught on a stone, causing the carriage to rock, and eventually one of the carriages, which has turned sharply, falls over on its side.

"Get up and run! There is no time to lie down!"

Bilford shouts as he passes by. At those words, the imperial soldiers stand up and run, even though they are staggering.

Bilford shouts as he passes by. At those words, the imperial soldiers stand up and run, even though they are staggering.

Burdens pour from a fallen horse. The horse that had collapsed and was pinned to the carriage struggled pathetically, but no one had time to pay attention to the poor thing.

"Hook! Phew! Phew… !"

Carl struggled to catch his breath as the battlefield slowly got closer.

As he get closer, he begin to hear human voices.

"Aaaahhh!"

"help me!"

"die! die!"

"Jack's been taken!"

"Ugh! Let go! Let go!"

"It's going to break through like this!"

Screams and screams.

Everything, life and death, was there.

The moment she witnessed everything on that cruel battlefield, Carl's pupils dilated greatly.

Phew…

Carl heard his own heavy breathing.

Very slowly, as if a huge beast was slowly exhaling.

A body shaking along with a running horse.

A long line of light in the field of vision.

The tingling smell of animals, the smell of blood, and the smell of rotting corpses.

bowwow. human scream.

An eerie air that felt as if my skin would fall off.

He feel like he can taste blood in his mouth.

Carl's expanded field of view captures the battlefield, which is like a scene from Hell, at a glance.

And then, Carl felt a strong attraction that seemed to be pulling him.

"… Turn right! Turn right! Lady Catherine!"

Driven by an indescribable power, Carol shouted loudly.

As Carl lowered his stance and spurred on what Catherine had taught him, the majestic war horse personally given by Emperor Azgoth finally demonstrated its power.

A pure white horse cuts through the darkness like a comet, galloping at a rapid pace, passing the carriage ahead and running at the head.

Catherine runs to Carl's right with her spear drawn and protects him.

Carl pure white horse and fluttering red cloak seemed to shine in the light of the torch, and even in the darkness, everyone could clearly see him galloping at the front.

The carriage turns to follow behind Carl, and runs with Ax Sound Village, which is being attacked by gnolls, on its right, gradually getting closer to the rear of the gnolls.

"Take a seat!"

Just as Carl was about to speak, Catherine shouted like thunder.

Catherine was surprised when Carl suddenly rushed out, but she was even more surprised that he had taken the right position with incredible accuracy in this confusing situation.

This is exactly where Catherine wanted to settle down!

The imperial soldiers drove the carriages and formed a circular formation, and immediately got off the carriages and blocked the gap between the carriages with their spears and shields in hand.

"Hurry and run! hurry!"

The cry of Bilford running with the conscripts.

Carl frantically turned his head from the horse and looked around.

"Lord Carl! Stay here!"

Catherine, who had grasped the situation before Carl, shouted that, broke out of the formation, and ran towards the conscripts led by Bilford.

"This…Get ready!"

There was nothing Carl could say to the soldiers other than telling them to prepare, which was useless.

But that was enough.

Even as the imperial soldiers saw the group of gnolls undulating like waves, they also saw the back of Carl, who was running at the front and pointing the way.

"Attack!"

chuck! chuck!

The soldiers responded, lowering their posture and aiming their spears over their shields. The sounds made by the armor merge into one, and resonate clearly even with the sounds made by countless gnolls.
