Boshu~ The shot warhead travels in a straight line straight for the Troll. The head of the Troll is completely obliterated.
The Troll who lost its head due to the explosion, fell backwards and crushed the Goblin behind it.
「Good!!」
Monster’s began to break the gate as the lack of ammunition had hindered the platoon’s defense.
…..the gate won’t last much longer.
「Everyone! Distribute your remaining ammunition!」
As Kazuya looks at the gate, he orders the soldiers to pool together and then distribute their ammunition.
「The redistribution is complete」
「Those who still have a working weapon, meet me at the gate!!」
Kazuya issues an order using the walkie talkie. He then quickly gets of the wall and hurries to the gate.
「「「「……」」」」
「Is this everyone?」
When Kazuya arrived at the gate, soldiers who had been fighting in various places around the fort were now gathered in one place.
All of their eyes shone like that of a beasts. Their faces were coloured jet black from the smoke.
「We will stop the monster’s advance by any means necessary!」
「「「「Roger!!」」」」
Kazuya operated the M2 Browning and aimed it at the gate.
Suddenly, the gate began to break in some places. Through the gaps, Kazuya could see the ugly face of a goblin.
「Everyone, fix bayonets!」
On the instruction of Kazuya, all the soldiers took their bayonets from their waists and affixed them to their STG44’s.
At the same time, the morning sun shone down on the fort.
The support unit from Chitose should be here soon.
We just have to endure until then!
The sound of the gate being broken increases. Hope fills Kazuya’s chest as the gate finally collapses.
The monsters raised a jarring yell. however, the first thing that met them, was a barrage from Kazuya’s M2.
「Hello! ….. now, goodbye!」
The 12.7mm bullets were so strong that they not only pierced straight through a monster’s head, but also the monster behind it.
However, within ten seconds the bullets had all been used up.
「50…..40….30….20…..10…..0. I’m out!!」
Immediately after hearing 0, the soldier began to charge.
「Everyone charge!!」
Everyone began to advance on the monsters with their STG44’s with attached bayonets. A fierce battle erupted.
The amount of monsters had decreased to around 200.
One soldier who lost his STG44, started hitting a Kobold over the head with a shovel, whilst others pierced their hearts with bayonets.
「Behind you!」
「Eh!? Thanks…i’m saved!」
Kazuya who was providing supporting fire with his Walther P38, saved a nearby soldier.
Suddenly, as Kazuya was slipping out an empty magazine. A goblin carrying a rusty sword leapt at him.
That’s bad!! I’ll be killed!!
Kazuya was completely open. He tried to twist his body to reach for the spare magazine at his waist.
However, suddenly a bullet flew from the side and struck the goblin dead.
When Kazuya looks to where the bullet came from. He sees Chitose carrying an STG44 whilst panting heavily. She must have ran here at top speed.
Smoke rises steadily from her gun’s muzzle.
…..I’m alive. Thank god Chitose got here on time.
Following suite, the rest of the reinforcements arrived.
Afterwards, the rest of the monsters were wiped out.
「Ha~~」
Upon seeing the appearance of Chitose, Kazuya sat down next to her.
Chitose approaches him whilst running her fingers along his body, checking for any injuries.
「Master!! Are you safe!? Are you injured!?」
「Ah, i’m safe, i have no injuries. You really saved me Chitose.」
「Of course! It is my raison d’etre to protect master after all」(TLN: Raison d’etre -> Reason for existing)
Kazuya offered a hand to Chitose who floated a gentle smile.
The surrounding meadow around the fort had been completely burnt and upturned due to the bombardment
Monster corpses filled both the inside and the outside of the fort. The smell of gunpowder and burnt monsters is strong.
「Master, we should leave the corpses to be dealt with by the platoon i brought. We should return to command for the time being, we have injured to treat after all」
