Chereads / the knight inside the war coffin / Chapter 4 - chapter 4: discovered

Chapter 4 - chapter 4: discovered

When all bandits are either killed or escape. I didn't chase them far away as my war coffin machine was overheated.

Thanks to the previous battle in my previous world. The radiator was badly damage which my machine can last long in half a day.

Although it was regrettable. It was satisfying to see that the village was safe.

As my system keeps warning me of my overheated machine. I then look at the well in opposite me. Although they are afraid at me. I didn't cared about their gazes and proceed to go to the well.

Upon reaching. I activate my water pump system as it took some water through the well.

This made the people curious of my action instead of afraid. Although water wasn't a problem to them. I just keep waiting until the tank was full.

"Ah what a peaceful day."

POV Reno

In the quarters of the guild master. I looked at the three people who looked in a worried expression.

They told me that a unknown creature was headed in the west of the village as fearing that they will be attacked.

Of course, i told my secretary to called all high ranking adventures that currently having a break but it almost took an hour.

Soon enough, my secretary came with few high ranking adventures but to my surprise. There are only three group instead of five.

"Did something happens? Why there are only three?"

At my question. My secretary named Trixie spoke in regret tone.

"The marquis ask the few adventures to joined him in battle in exchange for a great reward. As a result. Many of the adventures joined including the two S rank."

At her words I raise my eyebrow and ask.

"Why? Why would the marquis ask the few of our adventures to joined the war? We are expert of killing monsters not people."

As she about to answered. The man named Rio said.

"The marquis said that the enemy bring their chimera to hunt there supply group, he was urgent to exterminate those monsters as he felt that if it let loss. He will receive a heavy blow in the rear."

At his words. I couldn't help but to click my tongue and spoke in annoyance.

"Damn, those bendrick forces, are there still a A class adventures left?"

"No sir. Even them are left."

As I sigh in disappointed. I them look at the adventures and said.

"It can't be help it since most of everyone high ranking adventures are left. We have no choice but to check our mysterious creature and test the waters first. I don't want you all to returned as a corpse understand?"

""Yes guild master.""

"Good, then let's begin a briefing."

....

POV Jarvis

"That is what happened milord."

Looking at this bastard in a pathetic state. I couldn't help but to click my tongue and said.

"So let me get this straight. a metallic golem showed up in the middle of the raid and instead of running. You confronted a unknown metallic golem and lost not only the mage squad but also some infantry. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH I NEED A MAN POWER RIGHT NOW?! I TOLD YOU TO RAID A ENEMY VILLAGE BUT INSTEAD OF CART OF SUPPLIES. YOU GAVE ME A CORPSE AND A RAG, WEAK, PATHETIC SURVIVORS! MOST OF ALL! THE MAGE SQUAD I SEND YOU TO AID WAS WIPE OUT! HOW DO YOU COMPENSATE ME ON THIS!"

At my fury, the leader of the raid group only lower his head from embarrassing causing me to irritated more.

This lone golem has capable to kill almost all the squad I send. Although it was small. The mages are important to the army and we are almost in the losing side.

Thankfully, the chimera that the tower send was useful in ambushes holding off the enemy supply and reinforcement. Otherwise we are defeated long ago.

Either way, I have to destroyed that golem for slaying my men otherwise those noble society will mock me after the war.

"Caviler! Since you failed me on this, I gave a second chance."

When I told him a second chance. He look at me with determination as I continued.

"I will gave you ten chimeras in you along with hunter class chimera to destroyed the golem. If you failed on this, I'll send you to the tower as their experiment understand?!"

"Yes Milord! I won't let you down?!"

"You better be! Now get out of my site!"

As he gave his salute. I looked at my officers and continued the plan to change the course of battle.
