A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War!

As Kaiyan and the strangely shaped monster offspring descended to the ground, three grotesque monsters, including the one in question, stared at them.

“Grrr! You dare! You dare touch my arm!”

“Muliaron, calm down. Hmmm, is this an expert knight… Did you fly here using an artifact?”

As the tentacle monster stepped forward, the thorny creature called Muliaron grimaced grotesquely but said nothing and stepped back, seemingly deferring to the tentacle monster.

“A creature with dozens of black tentacles in place of legs.”

“Yes, it’s an artifact. I answered, now you answer my question.”

“Heh! Haven’t met an interesting human in a while. Well, why not? Humans are quite tasty, you know, hehe!”

Kaiyan hadn’t expected the monster to answer so willingly, but what angered him more was the monster finding amusement in setting the city on fire.

It didn’t matter if many people died or were left suffering without medical treatment; it was all just for fun, according to the monster.

“…Then I’ll have the pleasure of killing you for fun.”

“Heh! You truly are an interesting human! I’d love to take you on myself, but… Muliaron, kill him!”

The tentacle and spiky monsters stepped back, and Muliaron, who had lost a limb earlier but seemed to have it regenerated now, stepped forward again. However…

“His arm regenerated?”

Just moments ago, the creature had been bleeding black blood from its severed arm, but now it appeared fully restored.

“Heh! Surprised by my regenerative abilities, human? It’s too early to be astonished!”

Kwack!

Muliaron leaped with tremendous force, causing the ground to shatter and kick up a cloud of dust.

“He’s fast! Enhancement! Thought Acceleration!”

Muliaron’s speed was overwhelming, even enough to surpass most knights.

“Left!”

Kwaaaang!

As Kaiyan raised his sword to the left, he felt a tremendous impact.

“Hahaha! Take this!”

“Ugh!”

Before he could recover from the impact, another attack followed. With four arms at his disposal, Muliaron’s attacks were relentless.

Roar! Roar!

‘This won’t do.’

The creature’s combat capabilities, as experienced briefly, were slightly above that of an Expert knight.

Bringing it down when going all out wasn’t the issue. Even if they had exceptional regenerative abilities, if its head explode, it would die, just like trolls with great regenerative powers.

The problem was that it was one-on-one for now, but Kaiyan didn’t know when the other two would join the battle. Furthermore, judging by the way the other two were treating Muliaron, it was likely that their abilities were even higher.

‘…I need to kill this one in an instant before the others join.’

In that case, the only way was to gather strength in an instant and reduce their numbers when they let their guard down.

Crash!

“Hahaha! Is this all you can do? Try harder!”

As attacks came from all directions, Kaiyan skillfully defended himself while pretending to relieve the impact. Gradually, he moved away from the center, all while the creature continued to attack, not realizing that he was doing it intentionally, consumed by anger.

Roar!

“Kreuk! It’s no fun if all you do is defend! Let’s end this! I want to eat your delicious flesh!”

The creature seemed intent on ending it, as it extended all four arms backward and leaped towards Kaiyan, thrusting forward like a spear. Given the creature’s size, even a single hit from one of those arms would certainly shatter his body.

‘Just a bit more…’

In the heightened senses of time, Kaiyan didn’t take any action while the creature’s attack approached.

“Die!”

‘Aura Enhancement!’

When the creature’s needle-like arms were about to reach him, Kaiyan quickly lifted the sword he had dropped and activated the skill, spewing Aura from the sword.

Fwoosh!

Four enormous arms were severed in an instant.

But Kaiyan’s attack didn’t end there.

“Khrk? H-how…”

“Telling a dying creature won’t make a difference.”

Peeooong!

As the Aura ejected from the sword and plunged into the creature’s chest, it caused a tremendous explosion.

Aura Swing, a skill Kaiyan had recently learned on the Markain battlefield.

It was a much more powerful attack than the Penetrating Stab with a single blow. Moreover, with Aura Enhancement, the power of Aura was now twice as strong.

‘…I haven’t leveled up. The Aura consumption is too high.’

As the dust cleared and Kaiyan looked at the ground, he saw Muliaron’s shattered body scattered all around. At that level of destruction, not only the head but also the heart and all other vital organs would have been destroyed if they existed.

In that state, even drinking an elixir wouldn’t bring them back to life. At least, not according to Kaiyan’s common sense.

“Kwaaah! Muliaron is dead! What the hell have you done!”

‘…It seems like he’s really dead.’

In truth, since they were unfamiliar creatures, Kaiyan had worried that they might come back to life even in that state. However, hearing the screams of the Thorned Monster, it seemed quite certain that it had died.

Turning his head, Kaiyan looked at the Thorned Monster and the Tentacle Monster. The Tentacle Monster was collecting the bodies of the knights in one place, while the Thorned Monster alternated between staring at Kaiyan and Muliaron’s corpse, with a puzzled expression.

“Do you know what you’re doing right now, you fool? Muliaron, you idiot! Dying to a human…”

“What did I do? I just killed a useless bug. You’ll be the same shortly.”
