I almost got squeezed by two people and barely managed to run out.

Ray’s eyes seen just before coming out.

The eyes were filled with sadness and regret.

I thought it was because I couldn’t squeeze myself.

That wasn’t it again. It was just regret that he couldn’t be with me.

Because it couldn’t be done.

I ran outside and took a quick look around the frontline base to assess the situation.

The reason we came here is because we need it here. It must have come.

To say it was a coincidence, it didn’t make sense that everyone except me fell to the frontline base.

While looking around.

I could see the elves standing guard and the elves joking around with someone else.

‘It’s just… like the military.’

The clothes the elves are wearing and the visible environment.

And even class.

“Chu, loyalty! Private! Artna! Meet the princess’s best friend!”

“Loyalty! Private…”

“Loyalty. Corporal..”

“ㅊ.. Sergeant…”

At the end, I couldn’t understand it because the pronunciation was almost inaudible.

I didn’t argue anything.

After all, they are all office workers who earn a living, and the reason they enlisted was to protect Euryral.

‘It’s so different from Korea?’

Even during my gaming days, I received a lot of criticism because of this setting.

Are you asking if you took money from the military and wasted it? How can all soldiers respect their country and work hard to protect it from the bottom of their hearts?

I still remember it vividly because I swore at the same time.

If you think about the keyboard battle then…

The tips of my fingers tingled.

“It’s a peaceful place. Until recently, I couldn’t even imagine that we were at war.”

There was no one injured and everyone seemed to be playing soccer just fine.

I saw an elf taking pictures of Musou. He appeared to be at least the rank of sergeant.

‘Well, if you’re a sergeant, time will stand still, so you’ll be willing to do anything.’

Well, if you ask them to do something, they will definitely try to get out of it.

It was the same no matter which country’s military you looked at.

“Still, it’s better than here. How does it take 50 years for the military to be discharged?”

Even though we age differently than humans, 50 years have passed the line.

I never wanted to be born as an elf.

“Because I think I just looked around. I have to go back now.”

It’s already been over an hour since I ran away.

Even though it was a frontline base, it wasn’t a very large place.

This amount of time was enough to see everything.

I was about to turn around and go back to my assigned room.

-Aaaae!!

“Hey, enemy attack! It’s an enemy attack! every! Ready for battle!”

An ear-piercing siren rang, signaling a combat stance.

The playfulness on the faces of the elves who had been kicking the soccer ball just now disappeared and they returned to their positions with serious expressions to fulfill their respective roles.

It wasn’t the time for me to be like this either.

I had to hurry to where Mariana was and help her with her plan.

“Ah! Ryuk! It’s here!”

Let’s go into the operation center.

Ray, who was waiting inside, greeted me.

Her face was full of worry, unlike before.

“What happened?”

“That.”

“God. You’ve come to the right place. Our military is currently suffering a severe blow. Although it was a surprise attack, the route where relief supplies were coming was raided, so support is currently lacking.”

Mariana looked angry and explained what was happening.

Unfortunately, the relief supplies were attacked.

Considering the supplies we currently have here, we won’t be able to last even two weeks before we run out.

So, let’s get the relief supplies back before they run out. or not.

“It means that we need to break a new path.”

“Yes.. That’s right.”

Mariana looked at me intently and looked like she wanted to ask me something.

“Wait! I’m going to ask Ryuk to clear a path for me! no! Dangerous! I can never let you go!”

“But. No one can go there except God.”

“Other elves!”

“Others find it difficult to protect this place. The elves injured in the battle had already retreated to the rear. Just protecting this place…”

no wonder.

It was said that a war broke out and the injured elf was nowhere to be seen.

“No! Still…”

“It’s okay. I’ll go.”

“But.. it’s too dangerous. Without even knowing who the enemy was, I fought blindly. If you get hurt…”

“So we have to step forward. The other elves guard this place and we.”

A situation where there is no one who can move except us.

In that case, it would have been much easier for us to move alone.

Rather than disobeying orders just because another elf is involved, or acting as they please and being annihilated.

“It’s much safer for us to fight. You know.”

“Still..”

I checked Ray’s information.

===========

Name: Ray

Title: Single-minded (Ryuk)

Occupation: Ice Warrior

Level: 141

Stats

STR: 280

DEX: 200

INT : 100

LUK: 150

skill

A battlefield of ice.

A sharp sword.

A ferocious snowstorm.

===========

The level is a whopping 100 levels higher than before.

Since she also completed her third job change, her skills have changed a lot compared to before.

If you use this, you will not only block enemy attacks.

You may even be able to counterattack.

I grabbed Ray’s shoulder.

“Ray. This operation is all in your hands. I can do well.”

“Uh.. Huh? What is that… Of course! You can do well! Trust me and leave it to me!”

Ray patted his chest and expressed confidence.

It was good confidence. At this level, anyone can beat the opponent.

Even if Ray is an enemy that cannot be dealt with.

It would be possible with my current stats.

It’s stupid to be afraid already…

“Whoa.. let’s go.”

“Yes!”

“I understand!”

“…Why you?”

I was a little surprised when I saw Mariana answering with Ray.

“Of course I have to go too! Because it’s our elves’ job! I’m not so dull that I leave it to God and strangers! I am also strong in my own way!”

Mariana rolled her arms and posed as if showing off her strength.

All I could see was soft, soft arms.

Still, I see you talking like this. I have to take him with me.

“Ray.”

“Ha.. I understand. If Ryuk makes that choice, I will follow.”

“I didn’t say anything… I understand. Thank you.”

“Instead.. you should come back and treat me well.”

Ray’s words whispering in my ear.

My face turned red without me knowing.

Especially because it wasn’t just the two of us, it was a place with other elves as well.

“Of course. I’ll do my best.”

“Ah! me too! I will do my best too!”

*

It was midnight when we moved.

If you move during the day, even if there are a lot of trees around, the defenses will be severe.

The plan was to attack in the middle of the night when the defenses would be weak.

Of course, the enemies will know that there will be an attack in the middle of the night.

Divide in half and guard day and night.

We aimed for that.

It’s already been three days since the relief supplies were attacked.

Why are they not able to grow properly for three days and just stand guard?

Everyone had grim expressions.

“Ha~Am… How long do I have to do this… After all, I’m an elf, right? Can’t I just attack?”

“How do I know that? I just do what the above tells me to do. Still, the elf is delicious.”

“ That’s right.. It’s my first time eating an elf too.. Wow.. I almost lost my soul?”

Wow…!

Mariana, hearing the voice of a guard on patrol, rushes in immediately.

He stopped me from pulling out my sword.

It wasn’t that I couldn’t understand how she felt.

Even if we left now, there was nothing we could gain.

“You have to endure it. If you get caught attacking now, other elves at the frontline base will also suffer damage.”

“..Yes.. Sorry.. God..”

Her ears drooped slightly.

I didn’t mean to scold you.

I lightly stroked my hand on the top of her head.

“Ah.”

“Wait for now. Because I will definitely save the elves.”

“….Yes.. Ah, I understand..”

Mariana lowered her head and her voice suddenly became quieter.

What kind of reaction is this?

“Ryuk.. again..”

“No, again. What do you mean?”

“Ha.. That’s it.”

I don’t know why, but Ray got upset.

If I made a mistake, I would like you to let me know. I just lightly stroked Mariana’s head.

Is this wrong? I don’t know.

“First, let’s take the clothes from those two guards.”

The two people nodded to my question.

“Aaagh!”

“Keuuk!”

It wasn’t difficult to steal the clothes.

It was simple to wait until it moved below us in the trees and then ambush it from above.

The guards could not do anything and immediately fainted.

We took their clothes and tied them with a rope out of sight.

Mariana tried to kill the two guys in the middle.

I stopped him.

“Why are you stopping me?!”

“If I kill you now, you will be caught because of the smell of the rotting corpse.”

I had to find out about the change in security as late as possible.

That way we can buy more time to infiltrate inside.

As I explained, Mariana nodded, even though she looked dissatisfied.

“You’re nice.”

“Ugh.. ”

Mariana flinched slightly.

“But the clothes are for two people, so who will sneak in?”

“Um… for now, I.”

“I will do it.”

Ray and Mariana raised their hands at the same time.

It was just right.

Since the two did not get along well, it seemed like a good idea for them to bond and build friendships while carrying out operations together.

It would be better if it was just practice now rather than actual combat.

It was crazy to even hope for that.

“Are you both okay? We shouldn’t fight, right?”

“Don’t fight. If I’m not a kid and don’t get in the way.”

“What are you talking about? I’m in your way! I actually hope you don’t disturb me. I already know everything inside the base!”

I wanted to get along well.

The fight starts even before it starts.

Is this… ok?
