"Shit! Shit! SHIT!"

The man wearing an armor was running through a ruined town.

(It was supposed to be ambush that would help us turn things around! But they just forced their way through it?! What kind of bullshit is this?!)

The man continued running desperately until he ended up unexpectedly encountering a group knights.

"Markus?! You are still alive?!" – said the man wearing a helmet with horns while being accompanied by group of knights.

"Yeah! I manage to get away, but why are you here?"

"…. The west gate got destroyed. The tamer was there."

"!"

"Wait what?! How!? Bulldogs guild should be slowing her group! Why the heck she is here?!" 

"…. They all dead. Bulldogs guild got annihilated. The devil gun and the hell elf were there."

"But shouldn't they be-!"

(No wait, by any chance….)

"…. Hehe…. I get it. We been had. They set up a trap and we fallen for it"

"…. What? What are you talking about?" – said the man with helmet.

"It was a set up your dumbass! They countered our strategy and used it against us! Fuck me!"

"Wait, so what do we do now?!"

"Obviously we make run for it! The town is lost anyway, its better if we regroup back to the fortress and- "

Before the man named Markus could finish speaking, he heard sound of the ground rumbling and then the buildings near them being torn down one by one, making the man eyes be filled with fear.

"RUN FOR IT!" – shouted Markus.

Suddenly the building right next to them got destroyed a giant burning beast skeleton burst through the building and right through the crowd of people, stopping some of them while ramming the others into the air.

"Shit!" – said the man named Markus while barely avoiding the skeleton beast charge.

(It wasn't supposed to be like this! I was supposed to kill that fucked and become famous! I was supposed to be the hero of the story! What kind of bullshit is this?!)

The giant infernal skeleton beast looked towards Markus before preparing to attack.

"…. This shitty game." – said Markus before getting killed by the undead beast.

The entire town was being plagued with undead creatures, slaughtering anything in their sight and in the middle of this entire chaos, a tall robed figure with a tail sticking out from the robe was in the middle of the slaughter happening all around.

"…Huh. So, they just abandon their friends and run off. So much of "We will bring that asshole to his knees!" talk." – said the hooded figure.

"Well, they can run, but it won't help them."

"Yo! ClownFrog!"

"Oh? You already here?"

The hooded figure turned around and saw a short female with demon horns and unusual eyes. The woman was holding a whip and riding spider like monster.

"How is the situation right now?" – asked the horned woman after getting off the spider monster.

"Good. Every one was killed and the undeads are clearing up any stranglers. Some of the guild members that manage to survive run off, probably they are heading to the fortress since it is their only option."

"Then should we have these two take care of them?"

"No. Its better if survivors deliver the bad news to them. They will spread the terror for us."

"Oh, I see. Wow, you are really a solid evil character now mate." – said the devil woman while smiling.

"Thanks, you two miss devil tamer."

"Oh, shut up!"

Suddenly, from the rumbles nearby a person wearing an armor emerges and rushed straight at the hooded figure.

"DIE!" 

The man in the hood didn't even bothered looking at the man chairing him, however the moment the man tried attacking him a blade suddenly pierced his chest.

"Eh?"

The man looked behind him and saw half horse half man undead creature with blade arms instead of hands before getting his head cut off by the very same monster.

"Anyway, as soon as we take over the town, we are heading straight for that fortress." – said the hooded figure while taking off his hood, revealing a lizard like skull, showing that the person wasn't human.

"I wonder if they will manage to stop us."

While the town was being taken over by the monsters, the group of the survivors manage to run off from the chaos using horse, however unknown to them, they were let go.

After some time passed, the group manage of the survivors manage to flee back to the heavily defended fortress.

"What did you just said?! The entire town was taken over?!" – said the man wearing a red armor while sitting on the throne.

The people that manage to escape the undeads found him self in the hall that was filled with people and were explaining what happen in the town.

"…. What about the plan?" – asked the man in red armor.

"…. It didn't worked. The enemy forced their way through everything. The plan, the ambush, all were destroyed before they could have been used." – said one of the survivors.

Upon hearing the news of the situation, the entire hall was filled with people speaking.

"But how that happened?"

"That place was heavily defended, was it even possible to take it over so fast?"

"Shit! Shit! We poured so much funds into making that town!"

"What do we do now? They will obviously come here next!"

"Do we have enough people to defend the fortress? Should we abandon it?"

Chaos and confusion took over the hall as the fear sweeps in until the man in the red armor suddenly created a loud noise using his sword scabbard.

"SILENCE!" – shouted the man in red armor, silencing the all people in the hall in the instance.

"We shall hold our ground here! And nobody shall run!"

"If you any of you decides to run then go ahead, the place is one of the most guarded locations here, go ahead get killed by the monsters while running away."

"There is no use running or hiding! We need to take enemy here! If we don't stop them then what form of evil and chaos will spread?!"

"I won't lie, some of us will die! However, you shall be remember as the heroes though the ages, the dead shall not be Forgotten! So, raise up my soldiers!"

[The quest has been generated.]

[Quest: Defend The Fortress.]

[Quest Rank: S]

"What?! S rank quest?!"

"Holy shit dude. If we manage to pull this off…."

(Good. People manage to regain some of their vigor, however some of them still seem scared or stressed. It can't be helped. That infamous necromancer "Dead One" is one of the people leading the army of the dead and he is not alone, he bringed his allies with him. I heard stories about them from the adventures and every single one of them are monsters that can't be looked down upon.)

(Things are not looking good in any way possible. If this fortress falls to the enemy that this kingdom will end up being in danger of destruction. We need to prevent the worst case situation no matter what!)

(May the goodness protect us!) – though the man wearing red armor.

While the people inside of the fortress were getting ready for combat an army of the dead were approaching the fortress and after a while, the fortress was finally in sight.

"Well then. Its time to raise hell guys." – said ClownFrog.
