When I was Transferred to Another World, I Became the Adjutant of a Lady Commander and Beared the Brunt of a Lustful Harem! (WN) - Volume 3

Amidst the crisis on our side, we received reinforcements from an elite cavalry unit.

For a moment, I felt like I was saved, but I soon realized something was wrong.

“Wait a minute. They can’t just plunge in there like that! The cavalry won’t be able to move well in there!”

The place where we are currently fighting is a road surrounded by forest on both sides.

Meaning a hundred or so cavalrymen can’t just move freely.

“Please stop. It’s going to get even narrower ahead!”

Lucy, who seemed to have come to the same conclusion as me, intervened to stop them, but their advance did not halt in the slightest.

They seemed to have already set their sights on the swarm of ogres blocking the way to the forward troops.

“Damn. They’re not hearing our voices. But at least they’ll provide us some cover!”

Since they are unable to hear us, we have no choice but to make the most of the cavalry’s rushing power instead.

Then, after having them kick the ogres aside by the rush of the cavalry horses which possess more power than humans, we will use this chance to rejoin ourselves with the forward troops.

Lucy immediately gave the order and had the troops use their bows.

The intention was to reduce the number of goblins in the cavalry’s path of entry, but being in the midst of a crowded battle, our hit rate was low, so the number of goblins did not reduce much.

Still, it’s better than nothing.

In the meantime, the distance between the cavalry and the enemy has gotten closer.

At that time, a huge man who stood out amongst the other cavalry raised his spear.

It was probably Count Luke Krall.

“Break through at once! They’re only ogres! We’ll annihilate them with one blow!”

The other cavalrymen raised their spears at his command, and the allied troops in their path immediately cleared the way.

The next moment, the charging cavalry and the goblins came into contact.

“Wow, the goblins are being flung away.”

The sight was so shocking that I couldn’t help but utter a few words of astonishment.

And this is when I already knew that an object weighing several hundred kilos in total, running at speeds far faster than the limits of human beings, would not go unscathed if hit.

In fact, the goblins kicked by the cavalrymen flew over ten meters and took their comrades with it like a cannonball of flesh. If y u ar e abl e to re ad this me ssa ge, you a re rea di ng from an u naut hori zed ag grega te s ite.

And since there were a hundred of these mighty cavalrymen, nothing was left but a red stain on the ground where they had passed.

The sheer spectacle astonished not only the enemy but even our allies.

However, Lucy was the first to come to her senses and give the order.

“A path is now open! Move forward while we still have it and destroy the enemy!”

Her words brought the troops back to their senses, and we proceeded to destroy the goblins that were still reeling.

Meanwhile, I kept my eyes on the cavalry troops.

I felt a sense of discomfort as they marched forward.

“No matter how much mana you have to make yourself stronger, isn’t that too much to maintain that kind of rushing power?”

At that time, the cavalry had already come into contact with the ogres, but contrary to my expectations, they hardly slowed down even when compared to when they had entered. And that is already after they had bounced off dozens of goblins along the way.

“They’re more like a chariot than a cavalry horse, aren’t they? Just how are they still going strong……”

The cavalry unhesitatingly attacked the ogres as if they didn’t need to answer my question.

They aimed with their spears and stabbed at the target ogres at once.

Utilizing their rushing power, the cavalry’s charge was more powerful than Tilda’s blows.

Some ogres tumbled down, and the thrust spears pierced through the ogres’ back upon thumping on the ground.

They attacked them on the spots we could not reach directly, showing their determination not to let even one of them live.

“What a precise attack, right down to the middle of the pack……”

It was as if a giant arrow had pierced the ogres’ bodies, growing holes on the next, then the next, then the next, until they had punctured a lot of holes on every ogre in sight.

“Are they monsters……that they can pull off a difficult mounted battle on that scale without a hitch?”

My rambling was, again, left unheard.

The reason is that the cavalry unit that confirmed the destruction of the ogres had already gone to cover the advance troops.

The Count’s troops advanced while bouncing off the goblins, just as they did when they came to reinforce the rear.

As for the advance troops, they were excited by the arrival of the strong reinforcements.

“It looks like our troops have found a way to attack now that we’ve made a breakthrough.”

Led by Lucy, the other troops were also steadily pushing up the battle line.

With the enemy already surrounded, it was only time before they were eradicated.

“Don’t waste the momentum the Count has given us! Finish them off!”

Lucy herself drew her sword and cut down the approaching goblins.

But as expected of her, who is used to moving around, there was not a single drop of blood on Lucy’s clothes.

“Now! Push forward!”

The human side is slowly and gradually pushing up the front lines.

This has left the goblins, who had lost their trump card, the ogres, no time to regain momentum.

They were unable to use their specialized mass tactics either. As a result, they were defeated one by one.

The enemy’s numbers dwindled at an accelerated rate, and we have finally joined with the troops in front of us.

“This is Baroness Lucy Finlay, temporary commander of the rear troops. Who’s in charge here?”

A man came out from the back of the line as we called out to him while keeping a watchful eye on the area.

He had been fighting for some time now, and his armor was dripping with blood.

“I’m Viscount Randal. I’m in temporary command here, as my commanding officer, the Count, has been wounded.”

“How is his condition?”

“His condition is not critical, but he is unconscious. According to regulations, your troops will now be under my command.” Th is ch pt er tran slat ion is m ade pos sib le by st ab ing wit h a sy r inge t ransla tions. chec k on ly up-to-d ate trans lat ions on my W ordpr ess si te.

“Yes, sir. We still have about five hundred, and the rest have been heavily injured and have temporarily withdrawn.”

The Viscount nodded at Lucy’s words and turned around.

Then, a cavalryman came from beyond the soldiers.

The man on the horse is that large man, Count Luke.

“This humble Viscount expresses his utmost gratitude for the reinforcements, Your Excellency.”

When the Viscount bowed, Count Luke got off his horse and raised his hand lightly.

“Don’t worry about it. I was on patrol and saw some soldiers running away, so I came rushing here.”

In terms of age, the Viscount seems to be older than the Count, but I suppose the common sense of aristocratic society will take care of that.

The Count didn’t seem particularly bothered, but the words he spoke next were full of authority in his tone.

“But there’s still a horde ahead. You’re not going to choose to retreat here, are you?”

The two nobles swiveled their heads in response to his intimidating words.

“Good. If you run away here, I’ll have to talk to my father and have him kick you and your families out of the city. I’ll take the lead from here on. You guys follow me.”

After saying those words, he mounted his horse again and rode back to his men.

“I don’t think I will make it home either if I chose to kill that horde. Baroness Finlay, I need your help.”

“Yes, you can count on me. That’s what I’ve always intended.”

When Lucy said this, Viscount Randal nodded in relief.

“You used to be so quiet, but now you’re starting to resemble your father. I have high hopes for you.”

His words seemed to lift Lucy’s spirits as well.

After leaving the wounded and some of the troops to guard behind, we moved forward towards the enemy. We passed through a terrain flanked by forests on both sides and came to a wide basin.

Now it was up to the cavalry to take over.

The movements were the same as usual. Count Luke’s cavalry troops, who were in the lead, made a hole in the enemy line, and the infantry troops came in after them to breach the enemy from the inside.

The Count and his troops made use of their penetration power to repeatedly enter and leave the battlefield. Each time they did, the enemy troops would take heavy damage and become unable to respond to the subsequent infantry attacks.

In less than ten minutes, the enemy swarm collapsed and was spread out by the infantry troops.

There was what appeared to be an enemy general in the middle of the horde, but in the end, it has been defeated by a cavalry charge led by the Count.

In this way, the original objective of vanquishing a thousand monsters ravaging the farmlands have been accomplished in less than an hour.

It was a big battle. However, it was clear that most of the battle results were due to Count Luke’s cavalry troops.

His achievements were so overwhelming that even Lucy’s troops, which had been getting more and more opportunities to hog the spotlight lately, were completely blurred by his feats.
