The Seven Throne

Battle in the Forest

Three days have passed since I entered this forest.

Yep, I still lived here for those three days. Two days ago when I returned to the village, the situation was very chaotic. Not even one of them wants to buy my items.

Every house seemed to be worried all the time, the village chief had issued a ban on entering the forest, of course, the results of my hunt had looked suspicious.

As a result, I could not get money to rent lodging. I was forced to spend the night in the forest for that long.

All my explanations that the Shadow Wolf group had left were rejected outright.

In the chaos, they no longer receive information carelessly. Of course, the information from that four villagers was more trusted than me, who was only a stranger.

Yes, troops, it seems their target is clear.

"How many are they?"

"No, we will go from here. Show me the way out of this forest that is opposite to the army"

Even though it's like a coward, I don't want to fall victim again from the human side. Not all of them really understand their enemy this time.

...

At night, a camp for the adventurers.

"Fuzi, what do you think? Our enemy this time seems quite dangerous."

"No need to ask me, Alvias. As long as the Prince is there, we can eradicate them all."

"Don't expect too much from me, however, I'm still not strong enough to handle all situations"

Two men chat in front of a campfire. Which has blonde hair named Alvias G Sergiant, the first prince of the Alvion kingdom.

Meanwhile, the one who spoke casually and had red hair was named Fuzi Erfion. A Rank-D adventurer who has known Alvias since he started being an adventurer.

"That's true, isn't the Holy Throne festival in two days? How are the preparations?"

"Good, so far we have finished with preparations. All VIP guests have also been given invitations"

The Holy Throne Festival is an event where anyone can try to use 7 legendary weapons, the purpose of which is to look for candidates for the 7 Kings of this generation. This event has been held at least every three months since the first generation of 7 Kings. Two years after the new century arrived, but there were still no candidates found. The seven kingdoms including Alvion began to despair. Major disasters every hundred years will soon occur, without the presence of 7 Kings, the entire civilization can be destroyed in the ground.

Since the Kingdom of Alvion is hosting the event this time, they certainly hope for this occasion.

...

Planned time.

Just as the sun was shining brightly above us, the attack began.

I'm Fuzi, leading the current support forces. To be honest we were not very expected. After all, the elite rank A and B adventurers were in the front row.

"Five of them came from the front," our supervisor shouted.

Alvias led the command of the elite forces, "Start the attack!"

[Ooooooooooo!]

Their fighting spirit is burning! The first wolf was cut down easily, even their sword slashes were able to cut large trees without difficulty.

Seriously! They are not normal. All were slaughtered quickly, not even up to a minute.

This was easier than I thought, but that thought was immediately broken.

An elite adventurer has been torn apart by a Shadow Wolf out of nowhere!

"Don't let your guard down, they move through the shadows, stay calm, and prepare for the next attack!"

Alvias quickly understood the situation. This is what is embedded in everyone's mind.

'One-off guard means to die,' is not too much to illustrate this battle. Without warning, between our steps, many Shadow Wolfs appeared. At least more than twenty Rank C and D adventurers were killed instantly.

...

[Level Up][Level Up]

Hm? I don't know why this notification has been appearing since a while ago.

Oooooh! Could this be called leveling up just by thinking about it? Hahaha, maybe soon something will rise from inner me. Aah ... I want to shout my style cool like in the stories.

"Ri-rir? I-it's not polite to read other people's thoughts!"

Aaaaaaaaaaa... I want to cry! That's so embarrassing! Seriously! My delusion should be a secret. Aaaah! My life force seems to decrease. No, not physically, but more mentally.

Speaking of level, now I'm level 10. Fenrir and his subordinates too, at least their level is still far above mine. Their average level is 12, Fenrir is the highest at this time level 20. At this rate, she could evolve, but we chose to postpone it until we found a safe place. Evolving requires time for the body to adjust to new forms. This can be trusted because Fenrir has experienced it once, so she can be the leader of the group.

Our next destination is the Alvion kingdom.

…

The battle has been going on for a long time.

Fuzi shouted in exasperation, "Hurry up! The Healer heals the wounded"

Too many victims fell on their side. The Healers who continued to heal from the beginning, had started to run out of Mana.

This battle flow exceeded their expectations. Even the elites found it difficult to hold the Shadow Wolf group leader, Fenrir.

Normally Shadow Wolf is equivalent to Rank-C adventurous fighting strength. But when they have the coordination of skills and groups, even a group of Rank A adventurers will have difficulty dealing with it.

Additionally with Fenrir who had evolved, the difficulty increased.

Slowly, one by one Healer collapsed due to run out of Mana.

The Shadow Wolf is still swiftly moving with speed and good coordination between shadows. They jump, scratch, bite, rip, and kill many people without mercy. Shadow Wolf is a cruel hunter in the forest that became his territory. They built their own territory by building a large group.

In terms of stamina, the group of adventurers is clearly very disadvantaged. But the Shadow Wolf group has also been reduced a lot.

When the battle reached its climax, a terrifying presence could be felt by everyone, even the Shadow Wolf group.That is something gripping and frightening. The trees trembled, the air became congested. Fear and terror haunt everyone's thoughts.
