Barbarians were easy people who almost always placed their pride and arrogance in front of everything.
So even when it came to fighting, they would usually, or to be more exact, almost every time they would choose for a head-on confrontation, even if they didn't have the numbers or power for it.
While Roy was the head of a barbarian tribe, he wasn't a barbarian himself, so such a thing was completely out of his mind.
Why would he have to fight head-on like an idiot with a bunch of savages that were in higher numbers, and probably stronger than his small army?
It didn't make sense!
Furthermore, what kind of pride or arrogance was there in death, in most of the cases the person who died wasn't honored at all, in fact, he was always despised as the villain of the story.
For that reason, a head-on attack was out of the question, and his barbarian warriors had to abide by his orders whether they liked it or not.
The fact that they accepted everything with strength was a pretty easy way for Roy to win against every argument, or opposite thought that they might have, as he was the strongest of them.
With that decision made, even though a bit reluctantly the barbarian warriors followed Roy's arrangements, and set up a trap for the opponent.
It wasn't a really complicated trap though as mostly they just hid behind trees, after digging a bit pit in the middle of the forest, where it seemed to be more passable.
After that, they all stood there still as they waited for the other tribe to arrive. And they had to wait for quite a bit.
Gidella's father was just a brain-dead barbarian, but her mother should be a truly intelligent woman, as she had been able to become a young Rank 1 Mage at only 16 years old.
While she was used to barbarians living in the Death Forest, after hearing the story told by his cuckolded father-in-law she certainly should have started thinking a bit more.
For that reason, he doubted that the lateness in their arrival was because she was forcing them to stop on the way and rest.
If that was true then she was truly someone that Roy would have to convince to stay by his side. It would be a pity if he wasn't able to control her.
Yup, control her! He knew that it would take a lot of time for them to even start to sparkle some feelings between them, or trust each other, so the best he could do at the moment, was to control her.
According to Gidella, her mother had been a true beauty, so even though she should be around her 50-ies at the moment, she still should have traces of that beauty left on her.
Furthermore, on this planet, most of the women used magic in order to keep their looks young and fresh, and they wouldn't age easily.
As a matter of fact, the average age of people on this planet was around 200 hundred years old, and women were considered young in their first 100 years.
Not to mention that Roy didn't give a damn about others' opinions, he would do something as long as he felt like doing it.
And right now, he was thinking of having all three generations under him at the same time. it would most certainly be an interesting view to look at.
As he was thinking like that at the top of a tree, he couldn't help but feel like a small fire had started to burn inside him, but he didn't have much time, as finally, the enemy had arrived.
There were 57 warriors in front of Roy, including the old cuckolded tribe Head, and the 4 people carrying a sort of palanquin in the middle, where a beauty was resting.
He didn't have much of a sight in the beauty, as there were some leaves blocking his sight, and all those warriors down below, but he could feel that she was still a beauty.
Making him even more excited about what was to come later! But now he couldn't allow the sight to distract him, as he had much more important things to do.
The whole 'army' in front of him was led by a huge forest barbarian that was sitting on a horse, followed by a strong-looking middle-aged barbarian, and 50 warriors behind him.
He guessed that the guy in the front was Gidella's father, while that strong-looking middle-aged guy was the cuckolded old tribe Head.
While he couldn't tell the strength of these guys, he had a feeling that only that guy on a horse could have something of an equal fight with him, but even that not for long.
The others clearly seemed a bit stronger than his own, but not by much, and it would be difficult to decide a victor in a one vs one fight among them.
Which made him even more excited about what was to come, as he would arrange the perfect situation to turn them all into a one vs one fight.
As he was thinking like that, the 'army' was slowly approaching towards the trap, and he made sure to check that none of his warriors did anything stupid to spoil his plan.
Well a few of them might have had the idea to do such a stupid thing and think they might get away with it, but the look on Roy's face and his stare forced them to think twice.
The moment that the horse was just about 2 or 3 steps away from the trap, the beauty in the palanquin seemed to have sensed something, but it was already too late.
By the time she decided to act on that feeling, and scream to the Head of the tribe riding on the horse, the horse had already fallen into the trap taking the Head down with him.
As soon as the horse fell down, Roy's warriors got out of their hiding places screaming and shouting their arrival, completely shocking the opposite barbarian warriors.
It was at that time that Roy's plan finally took shape, as his warriors ran towards the back to fight those guys there, while the front guys had a surprise in front of them.
Seeming to have understood what was going on the beauty lying in the palanquin made of leaves got up, and was about to cast a magic spell, when suddenly Roy appeared in front of her.
Both of them were a bit surprised looking at each other, Roy was surprised at her beauty as she looked like a civilized version of Gidella and her daughter, while she was surprised at Roy's appearance.
Even though Roy had spent a lot of time in the woods, and his hygiene and self-care were a bit lacking at the moment, he was still a really handsome guy.
With the looks he had on Earth he was considered a 'shot', while the looks in this world were quite a bit different from what he had on Earth, he still thought he was quite the handsome guy.
But most probably she was just surprised that she was finally seeing someone that reminded her of her previous world, as she had been trapped among barbarians all this time.
Still, she was able to quickly pull herself together, as she said in a flirtatious and sarcastic voice,
"I guess you are the kid who brought so much trouble to my son-in-law, and my useless daughter! What you think you are strong enough just because you are a Rank 1 Warrior!?"
Hearing her words Roy didn't seem to get mad, quite the opposite he started smiling as he said back with the same tone,
"Oh, then are you supposed to be the mother-in-law of that cuckold? I must say after riding your daughter, and your granddaughters I have quite the desire to do the same to you!
Especially looking at those assets that you possess, it is making it really hard for me to control myself you know!"
The woman was clearly surprised by Roy's words, she didn't expect such a greenhorn to be able to talk to her like that.
Shouldn't he have a bit of shame or embarrassment as he talked to her? Not only didn't this guy possess any of those, but he was talking to her like a damn barbarian brute.
That clearly made her a bit uncomfortable, but she still managed to keep herself together as she said,
"Well that would depend if you have the ability or not, don't you think?"
Hearing that, Roy seemed to have understood something as he said,
"Tche~! Who would have thought that you would be such a weak bi*tch that you would surrender yourself so easily to a barbarian? Now you have become one of them, haven't you!?"
His words not only looked like but were actually derogatory and full of despise towards her, as it seemed to touch her sore spot.
One of the biggest regrets of her life was precisely the fact that she hadn't been able to resist against these barbarians, and had broken down that easily.
So, hearing that from Roy, she truly felt guilty, a guilt that was turned into anger and rage towards this bullshit sprouting kid, as she screamed at him,
"What the fu*ck does a kid like you even understand from what I have been through!"
As she said that, a huge fireball was instantly formed in her hand, and headed towards Roy, who was just looking at her with that derogatory, and pitiful look of his…
