Chapter 41: (2)


    However, the harpies had also suffered injuries from the previous days battle.


    Kyaah!


    Kiaah!


    Thud!


    The harpies hit by the arrows couldnt properly control their bodies and began to plummet. The number of arrows was too overwhelming for the small monsters to withstand.


    Waaaah! They cant evene close!


    The Allied Forces wont be overwhelmed by harpies just because theres no fortress!


    Perhaps because there were norge monsters like usual to intercept the arrows, the harpies couldnt avoid them and fell in heaps. They were only a small fraction of their overall numbers, but still.


    It was clear that as long as things remained like this, there wouldnt be any problems with the defense. Unless something extraordinary happened.


    Stay calm. Dont ignore the danger warnings.


    He had his arrow nocked, but he didnt shoot toward the harpies. He waited. His aim was


    To be cautious of that ck mass.


    The ck mass triggered the danger sense.


    The harpy queen is a monster with exceptional intelligence to the extent of being able to blow up the fortress. She must have known that it would be difficult for her alone to face the Allied Forces against the harpies.


    That ck mass! Theyre bringing that ck mass!


    Target them first!


    If we get hit by that thing, its over!


    And it wasnt just him who was on guard. The entire Panielun Allied Forces were wary of that object. Thanks to that, it was possible to spot it before the harpies could drop it.


    The problem is that we have no fortress left to protect us. If that object falls into the soldiers formation in this state, it would be a disaster.


    But another problem is


    Can I do it?


    Hecked confidence in his archery skills.


    Considering the nature of Panielun, there would be countless people who are better at archery than him. The problem is that they cant shoot arrows as far as he can.


    Even if he tried to intercept that explosive object up close, the aftermath would affect the Allied Forces. So it has to be exploded from a distance, and the only one who can do that, as far as he knows, is him, the yer.


    Kwaaak.


    Due to the extreme tension, strength involuntarily flowed into his hands, gripping the bow tightly.


    He even considered buying a lower-grade archery manual at this point, but it was toote now. Besides, there was no guarantee that the archery level would increase.


    If only they had stayed together like they did yesterday, Kaiyan could have bought some time using toys. But the harpies were spread out, and he wasnt sure if the harpy queen had the ability to learn.


    Haah Kaiyan, stay calm. You can do it. Kaiyan reassured himself.


    Uncle Jeff, Uncle Max, the old knight, and the 7th Special Unit.


    And beyond them, the Panielun Allied Forces numbering over 500,000. The pressure of knowing that their lives were in his hands weighed heavily on him.


    The situation was very different from when the fortress copsed. It was a matter of whether he could do something or not.


    This is something he can do. Its just that a momentary mistake could lead to an unbearable situation.


    Activate Aura, Breath Control, focus.


    He summoned all the power he could use right now.


    Fortunately, even if his power wasnt fully transmitted due to the limits of his bows power, the skills would assist him.


    If the limit of the power he could unleash with this bow was 10, with the help of the skills, he could unleash even greater power.


    Kwik-


    As he drew back the bowstring, the bow seemed to bend as if it would break at any moment due to his overflowing strength.


    The distance the arrow had to travel was at least 300 meters vertically.


    With intermediate archery, it was difficult to urately hit the target at such a distance. But he had to do it. It was a must.


    Thwack!


    He released the first arrow. The target was the ck mass.


    Shoot the harpies, and the mass will fall directly onto the Allied Forces. It has to explode in the air.


    Kwaaack-


    The arrow, which had been flying powerfully, gradually lost strength and started to waver. No matter how high the power and skill were, the distance was too far.


    Just a little more!


    Kwak-


    Darn it!


    Perhaps it was due to the increased uracy effect of the skill, he hit it, but it was a miss. The arrow scraped the side of the ck mass and deflected harmlessly.


    Unfortunately, it seemed that the impact was not enough to cause an explosion. The mass remained intact.


    Again!


    Kwik-


    There was no time to be disappointed.


    The distance had narrowed down to 250 meters in no time.


    Assuming that it would be safe to detonate at a minimum distance of 150 meters away, he might have two more chances, but unfortunately, it wasnt just one harpy carrying the ck mass. There were dozens, at least.


    Phew


    The fact that hundreds of thousands of lives depended on a single mass pressed heavily on him.


    He didnt boast about being able to save everyone. He just wanted to save as many humans as possible.


    Thwack!


    Another arrow was fired.


    Since the target was closer than before, the arrow flew straight without any waver.


    Puh-yuk!


    Great!


    Perhaps his earnestness paid off as the arrow hit the mass. Directly, too.


    Huh?


    But to his momentary delight, the arrow that hit the mass squarely deflected harmlessly. And then, as if nothing had happened, the harpy threw the mass.


    Kwaaah!


    Kwaeak-


    The ck mass rapidly descended.


    Not only that, but other harpies that followed it also threw masses.


    Detonate it in the air!


    The archers should aim for that instead of the monsters!


    Soldiers everywhere desperately shot arrows at the mass, but even if they were lucky enough to hit, the arrows simply deflected harmlessly. The power of the arrows was insufficient to explode the mass.


    He lowered his raised bow.


    He could have shot one more arrow, but it wouldnt be enough to stop dozens of masses. He wasnt even confident that hitting it would cause the mass to explode.


    I couldnt do anything.


    A sense of despair and helplessness washed over him.


    He never felt this way since encountering the yer system. The past version of himself who couldnt do anything when the vige was destroyed. The current situation was simr to back then.


    Ive grown so that I wouldnt be like that again Cant I really do anything?


    He didnt strive for this.


    He worked hard in the hope that no one would lose their family as he did due to monsters. But he couldnt do anything. He failed to protect the Panielun Allied Forces and the 7th Special Unit.


    I


    As he bowed his head in extreme despair.


    Paang!


    With a loud noise, something wasunched from the ground toward the ck mass.


    Kwaaang!


    That something made the ck mass to explode in one shot, unaffected by dozens of arrows. And it exploded in the air.


    Wow! Its the Scarlet Knights!


    The Scarlet Knights!


    Kwaaang!


    Kwaaang!


    As if it wasnt over, the masses that were falling one by one exploded simultaneously with the soldiers cheers.


    .Who on earth?
