Reborn as the Spirit King - Chapter 6 part1

Reborn as the Spirit King Chapter 6 part1 Chapter 6 – What you need before you make a deal (1) The leader of the mercenaries opened his eyes wide as half of his subordinates were either instantly killed or incapacitated. He was unable to believe the reality that had unfolded in front of him.

“L, leader!”

“Ugh!”

Even the best of the mercenaries was having a difficult time blocking Scylla’s wind arrows.

Whereas Scylla didn’t look the slightest bit tired as it continued its attacks.

Of course, nobody was able to see this and was one of the reasons why it was so scary fighting against a summoner.

“Eughhh!”

The leader of the mercenaries snapped out of his stupor and smashed the ground with all his limbs.

He wanted to complete the request, because at this rate, they would be completely annihilated.

It would be great if he could kill Heinze, but he didn’t HAVE to kill him.

‘I just need to kill the royal princess and the crown prince!’

The leader clenched his teeth as he called upon his subordinates that were waiting at the back of the inn.

Although he was frustrated with how much damage his group had received, what was more important for the leader was to complete his mission.

That’s why the leader bit his lower lip and rushed towards Heinze.

He wanted to detain Heinze while his subordinates killed their target.

“I’ll feel sad if you forget about me.”

“You bastard!”

Only, there was one problem.

The unexpected summoner was much stronger than he had imagined.

Most of the subordinates that had run in under his command were instantly skewered and killed by earth spears.

“I’m sorry to say this but this guy is not Gnome, but Noem.” (이놈!= You bastard! Sounds the same as 노움= Gnome).

“Keuuu ahkk!!”

Different from Scylla who was putting on airs of elegance, Noem was stuck against Jade’s leg.

It was showing its affection towards Jade while following his commands.

And, at the same time, it had created a row of earth spears in front of the mercenary leader.

This completely stopped the leader and his subordinates from approaching Jade.

Stab stab stab!

And, Scylla did not stop its barrage of wind arrows as it utilized the timing of Noem’s skill.

“Shit!”

The only thing coming out from the mercenary leader’s mouth were curse words.

And, at the same time, his head began to spin.

Even as he was busily swinging his sword to break apart the earth spears, his head was thinking.

‘It’ll be too difficult if this continues. Not only did we receive huge damage, but everyone is exhausted. On the other hand, the old monster and his knights are doing completely fine. We might be able to complete the request if we put our lives on it, but…..’

The mercenary leader’s eyes sank.

He had received a huge amount of money as an advance from his employer, however, it wasn’t enough to risk his life for.

Of course, if he ran away now, his employer would do everything they could to kill him. However, that problem would be dealt with if he just crossed over to a different country.

That prince’s influence only extended out to Paulstein and Arhan.

‘Let’s fall out.’

Thinking up to this point, the mercenary leader made a decision.

Although it was sad to give up on Paulstein and Arhan, which he had been active in for a long time, it wasn’t worth risking his life for.

‘I can refill the spots of those who had died.’

Many of his core members had died, but with the money he had received in advance, it would be easy for him to refill those spots.

There were plenty of mercenaries to choose from.

“Thinking of running away?”

“You bastard, I will remember you. I will cut your head off the next time we meet.”

The mercenary leader whistled.

He sent Jade a warning as his subordinates retreated away from the prince and princess in perfect order.

“Do you think I’ll passively sit here and let you go?!”

As the mercenary leader tried to retreat, Heinze burst into a roar.

He then kicked the ground with a bloody look exuding from his eyes, not wanting to let the enemy leave.

However, Heinze had no choice but to stop his advance as a rain of arrows showered onto him.

Not only were the arrows filled with mana, but they were also aimed towards the prince and princess.

“Let’s meet again, summoner.”

“I’m sorry to say this, but I don’t feel like letting you go either.”

“Huh?!”

Ba boom!

The mercenaries’ eyes grew wide.

Everyone became surprised with the earth wall that had suddenly formed behind them.

“Don’t you think we should see an end to this since we’ve already pulled our swords out?”

“L, leader!”

The mercenaries stared at the leader, not knowing what to do.

However, he was also confused.

He was in a daze after seeing his path of retreat blocked.

Yet, while the enemy was lost in thought, Scylla and Noem did not rest.

“S, save me!”

“Surrender! I surrender!”

The 50 or so mercenaries that were left quickly dwindled in numbers as the invisible spirits continued to attack.

Most of them were dragged into the ground as they tried to avoid the wind arrows.

“W, wait! We surrender! I’ll tell you everything…”!”

Slice.

The mercenary leader’s head fell to the ground.

Taking advantage of the weakened offense, Jade rushed in and immediately cut the leader’s throat.

Seeing this, the mercenaries that were trying to surrender turned their bodies and attempted to retreat over the three-meter wall.

“It’s useless.”

However, as soon as the enemy showed their backs, Scylla attacked.

Even then, the mercenaries didn’t have any other choice.

It was better to die trying rather than sitting there and waiting to be killed.

They thought they would be able to survive if they were lucky enough.

Stab stab stab!

However, there wasn’t a single mercenary that was lucky.

Scylla didn’t miss a single mercenary.

Rustle.

As soon as the enemy was crushed, Noem disappeared with the earth wall, while Scylla walked up to Jade wanting praise, then left after having its cheek rubbed.

“We received your help once again.”

“Shouldn’t we first get away from here?”

Jade shrugged as he heard the sincere gratitude.

He didn’t think what he did was a big deal.

“First, we need to go to a land that has a teleport gate….”

“We contacted the other side, but they won’t be able to get here immediately. If anything, they might even think we’re already dead.”

The mage carefully spoke as he was also in charge of communications.

If it wasn’t for Jade, either everyone would be dead or only some of them may have made it out alive.

And, he would not have been among those that survived.

“Let’s go to the feudal lord’s land, since I have something to do there as well.”

“Whatever it is you need to do; we’ll do everything we can to help.”

With Jade’s words, Laney and Heinze both had a radiant look to them.

They were worried that Jade was going to leave them at this point but was now relieved to hear that he was going to be going with them.

“You promised us.”

“Of course.”

Anyone could tell how happy Laney was as she nodded her head in large motions.

The group soon got a carriage and left the town.

It was unrealistic for them to stay in a town they were just attacked in.
