<div> While Bin was riding on the back of the lightning spirit and flying through the skies of the battlefield, Bell, Ad, and the soldiers were moving diligently through the enemy’s trenches, abandoned warehouses, caves, and rotten trees.
 “......It’s quite noisy.”
 Bell, who had infiltrated the demons’ camp, quietly said a word while watching Bell and the lightning spirit freely flying through the sky and burning the demons.
 He had ordered them to use the spirit to attract attention, but he had never expected them to do something like that.
 The other soldiers, except Bell, burst into laughter at the sight of the flying deer and the white-haired boy.
 Even for them, that sight was something they had never seen or heard of before, but they had no time to be amazed.
 Most of the soldiers wanted to look around once more while looking at the sky. Only Edman looked up at the sky that the boy was embroidering with the deer whenever he had a moment of free time.
 ‘... ... That’s it.’
 Ed thought that to himself as he looked at the boy.
 If you asked him exactly what he felt when he saw the boy, Ed wouldn’t be able to answer properly.
 He was just endlessly envious of the boy flying freely in the sky.
 “......Let’s move slowly. Thanks to you running around so loudly, the surrounding area will be a bit looser. If we’re going to move, now is the time.”
 “Yes, let’s do that.”
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> Menes belatedly came to his senses after hearing Bell’s order and answered. Even though he was an elf who had lived for over 2,000 years, he had never heard of a wizard flying in the sky riding a spirit.
 “This is the end. Let’s finish quickly and return to the barracks. I’m starting to get impatient.”
 Belle rubbed her fingers as if she was annoyed that she hadn’t smoked for a long time, and skillfully walked through the enemy lines.
 “......Astella looks down on me, so I will move forward with faith, defeating the dogs that came from hell......”
 The faint prayer of the Citadel Corporal reached everyone’s ears through the mask’s communication magic.
 It was inevitable that she would break down mentally, having to watch her brother-like soldier who had been with her for five years being kidnapped by a mutant.
 Everyone knew that fact.
 Even so, it was inevitable that her chest would be filled with anger and irritation.
 “Everyone, focus.”
 Menes’ voice echoed through the masks of the soldiers who were looking at the mentally broken Corporal with concern.
 “There is a mutant of a peculiar form up ahead.”
 “What if it’s peculiar?”
 “It has a human form, but its ears are quite... large. It looks like it could fit a cow or two in its earholes.”
 Ed frowned after hearing Menes’ story. He couldn’t guess its form from just his description.
 “......Huh.”
 It seemed that Belle didn’t get what he was describing either.
 “Its earlobes are so enlarged that they almost sink into the floor. It looks like it can’t move because it can’t support the weight of its ears.”
 “......Why do we have such mutants?”
Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m freewebnσvel.cøm. “It’s probably for surveillance. It’s just that certain organs have been strengthened to suit its purpose. Since it can’t turn its head, it seems like all it needs to worry about is the sound.”
 Belle nodded as if he understood Menes’ words and began taking off his leather shoes.
 “Everyone, take off your combat boots. The floor is muddy, so it might make less noise... but it’s still safer to move around barefoot.”
 The soldiers all frowned and showed their embarrassment. There might be a few chunks of flesh and poison in the mud, and it was extremely uncomfortable to step on it without combat boots.
 “Sseupp.......”
 As expected, as soon as they stepped on the mud, the soldiers felt pain in their feet and the tips of their toes began to feel numb.
 “Let’s finish this quickly and go back. Isn’t this level of poison something you can endure? I’ll take you to the saint as soon as I get back, so just hold on a little longer.”
 “Haa...... haa.......”
 The Citadel Corporal’s breathing became increasingly rough.
 Bell watched him closely and soon exchanged glances with Menes through his mask.
 There was no way for Adro to know what the two were talking about with their eyes... ... but it probably wasn’t a good conversation for the Citadel Corporal.
 In any case, the soldiers slowly stepped forward, stepping on the mud with their bare feet.
 Soon, a large ear lobe appeared beyond the mud hill.
 The extremely bizarre large ear had ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) several burst veins. The huge earlobes, bruised and yellow, looked like they could easily hold two or three orcs, as Menes had said.
 The mutant’s head was tilted forward, unable to support the weight of the earlobes. Thanks to that, even if they were in a somewhat conspicuous place, they wouldn’t be noticed by the mutants as long as they didn’t make a sound.
 ‘Forward.’
 Menes, who was in the lead, checked the situation and gave the order with a hand gesture.
 Ed held his breath and carefully moved one step at a time, bending down. The mud and intense pain on the soles of his feet tormented him, but Ed clenched his teeth and suppressed a groan.
 He had to be careful not to step on the bones hidden in the mud. The soft and rotten bones would easily break even with the slightest impact.
 “Hoo...... Hoo.......”
 The Citadel Corporal’s breathing became increasingly ragged. No, it wasn’t that he had gotten rougher, but that the soldiers were extremely tense, so his breathing might have been much louder than usual.
 The experienced soldiers thought that the mutant might have sensed the Citadel Corporal’s rough breathing.
 ‘Calm down. Keep moving forward.’
 Menes, whether he had eyes on his back or the ability to read minds, quickly noticed the soldiers’ anxiety and sent a hand signal.
 The soldiers had no choice but to trust him and keep moving forward. Ed moved cautiously, hoping that his hearing wasn’t as good as the mutant had become.
 If you are reading this translation anywhere other than Novelight.net or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.
 Bam!
 The moment he was about to sneak past the mutant’s bedside, an explosion sounded from afar once again.
 A hot wind brushed past their earlobes for a moment. The stupid mutant had stepped on a mana mine.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> “Huh...!”
 Ed let out a groan without realizing it. In the midst of extreme tension, they suddenly encountered an explosion, which they couldn’t bear.
 The soldiers all turned their heads and looked at Ad once, and then at the mutant.
 “......Hoo. Hurry, hoo.”
 The Citadel Corporal’s heavy breathing grew louder and louder.
 “.......”
 The mutant didn’t respond at all. Perhaps it was because Ad’s moans were drowned out by the explosion.
 Ad almost let out a sigh of relief.
 He clenched his molars and swept his chest to avoid making another mistake.
 The soldiers all thought they had relieved their sighs and slowly lifted their feet again.
 “......Fuck. Fuck.......”
 However, the Citadel Corporal’s breathing was still rough. He cursed at himself as he lost control of his rising breath.
 ‘... ... ‘Quiet.’
 Menes looked back and gave a signal. His sharp eyes were shadowed.
 “I’m sorry... I’m sorry, Danny. I couldn’t help it. You know that.”
 ‘Quiet!’
 Menes gave a signal again. The soldiers next to the Citadel Corporal quickly grabbed his shoulder and repeated the signal the ensign had sent in front of his eyes.
 “.......”
 The Citadel Corporal stared blankly at his comrades’ signal with unfocused eyes.
 Then, he shut his mouth tightly and nodded.
 The soldiers who had been hastily repeating Menes’ signal barely managed to suppress a sigh of relief.
 They quickly turned their heads forward to get out of the hearing range of the mutant with the huge ears.
 “The ensign told me to shut up, Danny! Please, just! Stay still!”
 And.
 The Citadel Corporal's scream, almost a scream.
 It hit the back of the soldiers' heads.
 "Ah."
 The Citadel Corporal screamed, then raised his head as if he realized what he had done and continued.
 "I'm sorry."
 The Citadel Corporal, who had let out a cool scream, apologized in a calm, steady voice, just like before he left for his mission, as if he had suddenly regained his senses.
 Even so, his eyes were still out of focus.
 Beep beep beep -
 Tinnitus tormented the ears of the soldiers standing there.
 It wasn't tinnitus caused by stress.
 It was tinnitus caused by a mutant with enlarged ears.
 The mutant with the large ears let out an unpleasant tinnitus as if preparing for something. The tinnitus was so loud that it pierced through the thunder that reverberated around the area and tore the soldiers’ eardrums.
 “Fuck.”
 Menes cursed softly as if what was going to happen had finally happened.
 He hurriedly lifted the longbow on his back and shot an arrow at the mutant’s head. It took less than half a second for him to hold the longbow attached to his back and shoot the arrow.
 A thin, sharp line extended from the bow.
 “Kkiya......!”
 The moment a loud scream that seemed like it would tear apart was about to escape from the mutant’s face facing the floor, the arrow Menes fired pierced the mutant’s neck.
 Compared to its bloated ears, the mutant’s neck was no different from a human’s. When the steel arrow pierced its neck, its rotten and torn neck was immediately torn apart, and its torso also fell limply like water-soaked paper.
 “You’re a step too late.”
 For a brief moment, the mutant's scream flowed out.
 Edna and the other soldiers' ears were deafened and their ribs were ringing just from the sound of that scream.
 If the mutant had screamed properly, all the soldiers here would have lost their hearing.
 Woo Lee was pressuring them. This time, it was coming from a different direction than before.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> Something was approaching here. That much he could tell for sure.
 After a brief moment of deliberation, Bell gave an order.
 “...... Most of the troops around here will be focused on Bin right now. We can finish the mission. I’ll plant the last parchment and go.”
 Bell made a decision.
 After a brief moment of deliberation, the order was ‘Continue the operation.’
 The soldiers who heard this order thought, ‘We can’t go back alive.’
 “...... This is driving me crazy. You guys! Hurry up and put on your combat boots! From now on, we’ll leave those who fall behind behind!”
 “Clear the way, Lieutenant. From now on, all engagements are permitted.”
 Bell started running at a speed that was hard to believe for a wizard. Lieutenant Menes, who heard the order, muttered a curse as if he was annoyed, then quickly moved his feet and passed Bell.
 Soon, an overwhelming number of troops would be pouring in here.
 If they were lucky, they would die. If they were unlucky, they would end up like Corporal Danny.
 Either way, it would not be a good experience for them.</div>
