A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War!

Chapter 48: (1)

Heugh!

Hey! I told you not to breathe through your nose!

Well, but Heugh!

It had been three hours since they started following the elf-orcs.

The expressions on the faces of the soldiers, excluding Kaiyan, were beyond words. They all had a disgusted look, with one hand covering their noses, desperately breathing through their mouths.

Kaiyan had already guessed that the smell would be intense, considering that the monsters were running away from it.

But the smell left behind by the elf-orcs was beyond imagination.

When Kaiyan smelled it for the first time, he thought his nose was going to change. There was no way such a foul smell could exist in the world if not for that.

Haah Ha. It feels like Im going to die. I just cant get used to it.

Uncle Max, hang in there.

Kaiyans eyes looked in concern as he saw Uncle Maxs disgusted face.

He was already old. He wondered if it wouldnt cause a big problem.

Right Wait a moment. Why do you look so fine?

What do you mean?

Why do you seem so unaffected?

Well, Im still young, you know. Even though its tough, I dont show it.

Is that so?

Of course not. In truth, as soon as he smelled this foul odor, he opened the shop window and purchased an item called a Transparent Mask, which blocks the smell.

It cost a whopping 50G! It was quite expensive for a feature that blocks odor.

But I cant continue smelling this foul odor.

In his heart, Kaiyan wanted to give a mask to Uncle Max and Uncle Jeff as well.

But I cant waste G so carelessly, especially when its not a dangerous situation.

It was not 5G, but a whopping 50G. And in order to purchase two more, an additional 100G was needed.

Kaiyan felt sorry for the two uncles, but he hoped they could endure since the foul smell wouldnt harm their bodies.

Sir, we seem to have gone quite deep into the canyon. How much farther do we have to go?

Hmm

As I asked, the senior knight alternated his gaze between the artifact in his hand and the canyon.

Judging by the increased brightness of the artifact, Tarien must be somewhere nearby. But I cant determine the exact distance.

Where we are now is not the outskirts of the forest but the heart of the canyon.

Seeing harpies flying in the sky, it was clear that they had come in the right direction.

The problem was whether the elf-orcs were continuously moving in the direction we were going.

We should start considering a different strategy, shouldnt we? We dont know when the elf-orcs might move in a different direction.

Thats true. Hmm

It was all thanks to the elf-orcs that they were able to have a conversation in the heart of the canyon, where there were no hiding places.

The foul smell they left behind prevented monsters from approaching.

But relying on luck was not a viable situation.

Um, Sir Knight! How about this?

A good idea suddenly came to Kaiyans mind.

What? Do you have a good idea?

I suggest we capture the elf-orcs and take them with us.

Wasnt it a really good idea?

Instead of following the elf-orcs, if they captured them and took them along, they could go wherever they wanted.

If they used it cleverly, they might be able to rescue Tarien without engaging in battle with the harpies.

You

Yes!

Have you gone mad?

Yes?

Kaiyan didnt want to rescue Tarien in the first place, and now he came up with such an absurd plan.

How do you expect to endure that smell? Its already so intense even at a distance. How can you carry them right next to you?

The smell Ah.

Kaiyan momentarily forgot that he was wearing an odor-blocking mask.

Smelling the odor from those creatures up close? Everyone except me would probably collapse.

But the situation didnt allow him to give masks to everyone.

Kaiyan! If youre going to do something crazy like that, forget about it! Do you want to kill me?

Please! I feel like Im dying even now!

Not only the uncles but also the soldiers reactions made it clear how foolish my words were.

Hmph, well, if it werent for the smell, your idea would have been a good one. But lets find another way.

Yes, understood.

In the end, it seems like well have to spill blood.

Other than this method, no other good ideas came to mind immediately.

At best, they could cautiously infiltrate the harpies nest and bring Tarien back.

How many of us will survive with that method?

If they were lucky, maybe around five people will survive.

But even if they do survive, its a problem. How are they going to escape from here to Panielun with this number of people?

Oh! The elf-orcs changed direction!

What?

Here it comes.

One of the knights who was leading the way shouted in urgency.

As he said, the elf-orcs, who had been moving at a considerable distance, changed direction for the first time.

Sir Knight, what about our direction?

Phew, its different.

Kaiyan asked with a glimmer of hope, but as expected.

Their direction and the direction of the elf-orcs are different. It means they can no longer rely on their help.

Screech-

Creak-

The monsters cries from above felt like they had been waiting for this moment.

Draw your weapons, everyone. From now on, we move quickly.

Clang-

Without a word, both the knights and the soldiers drew their weapons.

I actually prefer this to the foul smell.

Heh, you too? Its our turn.

I cant afford to be killed by those harpies!

The soldiers exchanged jokes to ease the tension, but they couldnt hide their trembling hands.

Ill take the lead! Follow closely! Lets go!

Yes!
