Chapter Index

    Gilbert, who checked the system’s notification window early in the morning, called Fermo and ordered all combat readiness.

    Fermo, who saw Gilbert’s firm expression despite the unexpected order, quickly issued the order and completed all preparations for war in less than 20 minutes.

    Lastly, while the available Titan soldiers in the territory were waiting to be dispatched, Gilbert also linked CT-777 to the Titan soldiers.

    [CT-777 link completed. Gilbert, what mission must you perform this time?]

    “Defense of Wiesbark and end of war.”

    [Mission input completed. We will establish a mission performance scenario based on the given information.]

    While in Wiesbark, Gilbert periodically fed CT-777 with information he had acquired. If he had to choose the best artificial spirit at the moment, Gilbert could have chosen CT-777 without hesitation.

    CT-777, which was always encountered as an enemy when playing Tactical Combat, was an artificial spirit that boasted deceptive performance even when understood through game play.

    The level of difficulty in encountering CT-777 was always determined by the level of growth of CT-777, the artificial spirit assisting him, rather than the level of the knight riding the giant soldier.

    Perhaps that’s why there was a topic of discussion among users about how far they could grow if they acquired CT-777. I was curious about how far CT-777, whose performance varies greatly depending on the degree of learning, can grow when it supports a character who challenges human limits.

    However, as there was an official statement that CT-777 could never be obtained, users’ baseless war of words continued. There were also users who claimed that it could perform as well as Precia, the best artificial spirit in Tactical Combat and the artificial spirit of Colossus, the final tech titan.

    Of course, the general opinion of users was that it could not surpass Precia, which was recognized by game companies, as it could not be officially confirmed, but Gilbert, who actually worked with CT-777, could not help but be surprised by the performance of CT-777 this time.

    [Understand Knight Gilbert’s special abilities. I will sync to that ability.]

    [Sync completed.]

    [I will display information about Gilbert’s abilities at the top.]

    The mini-map status, which can only be checked through the system, has been implemented in the upper left corner of the front. CT-777 clearly and clearly indicates content that will only be implemented in the system.

    At this point, Gilbert couldn’t help but be surprised by the CT-777, which was capable of such a configuration. It is clear that only you can perceive the system, but somehow CT-777 was able to access it without difficulty and implemented it in a more easy-to-view state.

    Gilbert couldn’t help but ask this.

    “CT. How can I display the minimap?”

    [This ability was judged to be Gilbert’s unique ability. Isn’t this related to the forced synchronization of artificial spirits that were not previously officially contracted? I have completed learning about that.]

    “Is that possible?”

    [possible. It is not difficult to reflect the contractor’s capabilities.]

    Gilbert couldn’t help but feel devastated by CT-777’s words. At first glance, I did not understand that even though it was a growth-type artificial spirit, it could also access systems such as other world cheats.

    So far, Gilbert has been the only one directly affected by the system. A representative example was the active skills and abilities that he had.

    The only time the people here were affected by the system was indirectly because of Gilbert. This is the type of special ability intimidation that can be used when the authority and leadership abilities reach a certain level.

    However, as if it were natural, CT-777 synchronized with Gilbert’s system assistance and showed signs of assisting. Unnecessary parts were deleted, and a mini-map was provided that summarized only the information Gilbert needed.

    I couldn’t compare because I hadn’t yet obtained Precia, Colossus’ artificial spirit, but it was clear that the hypotheses the users had made were not entirely absurd.

    Maybe better than Precia.

    Gilbert, thinking of the extremely picky artificial spirit, nodded.

    Anyway, there was nothing bad about it.

    “Pretty good.”

    [This level is basic.]

    Gilbert couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter at CT-777’s unexpected answer once again. CT-777, which always answered like a machine, gave a sly answer and I couldn’t stand it.

    “Then I will check your skills.”

    [Command input complete. I will support you with all my might.]

    While Gilbert and CT-777 were chatting, Fermo received a report that preparations for sortie were complete.

    All possible preparations have now been completed. The goal was to clear the main scenario with minimal damage, but I didn’t think it would go as planned.

    War has always been full of variables.

    There are no exceptions. That is Gilbert, who roamed countless battlefields. No, it was Kang Do-jun’s conclusion.

    [Identification of unconfirmed giant spirit disease. The location is judged to be a valley.]

    While I was waiting, catching my breath, they arrived at the expected intrusion route.

    “Notify all troops on standby. There is only one command to give.”

    Don’t die.

    Gilbert’s short story about the expedition was imbedded in the hearts of all the troops who were ready to go.

    “All troops deployed.”

    With Commander-in-Chief Gilbert’s sortie order, the Sigurdians’ attack in the main scenario began.

    ***

    Brynhild, who was infiltrating Wiesbark early in the morning, could not shake off the feeling of reluctance.

    Although she couldn’t describe it, her sharply trained sixth sense was constantly sending signals.

    If you don’t go…

    …I can’t turn it back…

    ….can’t win…

    Things that were less than a sentence ran through her mind, distracting her concentration. It was the first time for Brynhild to feel such specific, negative emotions.

    Are you nervous because you are about to face a war where the survival of the tribal alliance is at stake?

    Immediately, Brynhild shook his head.

    It couldn’t have been that way.

    Brynhild’s sixth sense was a kind of inherited ability given to him by his ancestor, Sigurd. According to the records of Sigurd’s tribal union that has been passed down from generation to generation, the greatest ability of Sigurd, the founder of the tribe, was his sixth sense, which is close to precognition.

    A power that helps you avoid bad luck and follow the right path.

    That was the progenitor Sigurd’s sixth sense ability.

    After Sigurd, the founder, there were quite a few descendants who awakened their sixth sense.

    Naggelung, who displayed bravery during the First Imperial War, was one of those descendants.

    One day, he awakened his sixth sense and got the imperial army into many troubles. Since the area that cannot be explained logically is the sixth sense, Sigurd’s family achieved numerous victories through carefully planned plans and guerrilla tactics of avoiding traps and running away with only his sixth sense.

    However, the ability called sixth sense was very fickle.

    Making a sure answer based solely on intuition rather than based on any basis.

    This difference may not seem like a big deal at first glance, but on the battlefield, such a small difference could determine one’s life.

    That was why Nagelung, who was so courageous, blindly trusted only his sixth sense and fell on the battlefield.

    The same was true for other descendants who awakened their sixth sense after Nagelung. The faintly connected ability was clearly different from the progenitor’s sixth sense.

    Brynhild, who had awakened his sixth sense in his time, was one of the people who knew the difference better than anyone else.

    That’s why I didn’t blindly trust my sixth sense. I never forgot to think twice and build a foundation.

    But this…

    Brynhild’s hand holding the control went into strength. I don’t blindly trust my sixth sense, but this is the first time I’ve had a sixth sense that sends me a threat this extreme.

    This wasn’t about avoiding bad luck.

    If you go, you will be destroyed.

    As if telling me that, my sixth sense kept recommending that I not go.

    However, avoiding this war was not a solution. Even if the path ahead is destruction, retreating will only lead to extinction.

    It’s truly a dilemma.

    In these situations, there was always one option to choose the discarded heel.

    [Arrive in Wiesbark in 10 minutes. Are you ready?]

    “That’s what I mean. Follow along so you don’t fall behind.”

    Brynhild responded to Tarhal’s communication with a smile that hid his anxiety, and his eyes tightened. If there was a back and forth, breaking through head on was her way.

    Being scared before even starting was not a word in her vocabulary.

    [Well then, good luck…]

    Cooo!

    Even before Tarhal’s communication ended, a roar that shook the valley began to be heard.

    Brynhild felt as if his sixth sense was hitting something red in his head.

    “What’s going on?!”

    [The empire noticed!]

    “What? Does it make sense to notice before attacking? There’s no way that amount of troops came out without any preparation. This is how it feels…”

    [It’s as if they all knew when we would attack.]

    When Tarhal expressed the same sentiment, Brynhild could not bear it and slammed down on the control stick.

    I realized too late that this was exactly what my sixth sense had warned me about.

    “Damn it! I will stand at the head of the warchief!”

    She cursed softly, quickly regained her composure, and led the giant soldier to the very front of the advancing troops. Even though she was caught by the imperial army before she could attack, it didn’t change what she had to do.

    “For Sigurd!”

    Brynhild hurriedly shouted through the entire communication channel, pulled out a huge iron sword, and rushed towards the giant god soldier standing at the forefront of the imperial army.

    It was to awaken the warriors who had stiffened due to the sudden appearance of the imperial army.

    Fortunately, upon hearing the shout of bravery, Sigurd’s descendants came to their senses and followed her.

    As intended, the handling of the unexpected situation seemed to have been half-hearted.

    Then all that’s left is to get ahead of the curve!

    Ignoring her sixth sense that was still ringing the alarm, she swung her sword with explosive mana to take down the leading knight of the army.

    It was a sword that contained the wish to bring victory with this one strike.

    but.

    bang!

    Brynhild’s confident horizontal slash was blocked so easily that it seemed futile.

    A golden sword so bright it dazzles your eyes.
