A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War!

Chapter 92: (1)

Accompanied by Bern and Bauss farewell, the carriage left the checkpoint, and Kaiyans communication device in his pocket vibrated.

Balon, Ill be away for a while.

Yes? Where are you going?

I have to find the missing cat.

Then, Ill wait here.

No, you should go ahead, and Ill join you.

Kaiyan, wait!

As Kaiyan descended from the running carriages roof, Balon, who had been sitting on a coachmans seat, called out to him in panic, he ran quickly towards a small grove behind the checkpoint without looking back.

After a while, when he arrived in the forest, Kaiyan looked around and took out the communication device.

[Kaiyan!]

Through the communication device, he heard Riekas voice.

Oh its really working? Its amazing.

[I told you it does!]

Thats true, but its still amazing to hear Riekas voice through this communication device.

Riekas voice through the communication device was exactly the same as the clear voice that usually echoed in his mind.

Anyway, did you leave the checkpoint?

Yes, Im heading in that direction now. Are you following well?

[Yes! But right now, it seems like this guy is waiting for someone! After running away for a while, he hid under a big tree!]

A big tree?

[Yes! Its the biggest tree among the trees I saw on the way here!]

Really? Then, I just need to find the big tree. Ill be there soon.

After ending the communication and closing his eyes, he thought about the path to the big tree. In his mind, a map appeared, and the direction of the nearest big tree was drawn.

The reason he could send Rieka to this place was precisely this. He had confidence in tracking anywhere with the predator of the forest.

Of course, if he hadnt confirmed the small grove behind the checkpoint, he wouldnt have been able to do it.

Fortunately, its not far. Aura activate!

Since Rieka had an emergency magic scroll, there was no need to worry too much, but there was a possibility that a monster could suddenly appear and cause harm, so he activated Aura and quickly moved toward the direction where he could feel the big tree.

Crunch.

Were almost there.

When he arrived in the center of the forest, his senses tingled.

Where

[Kaiyan! Its here!]

When he turned his head, Rieka, who had been hiding on a tall tree and waving her hand, came closer, stepping lightly on a tree branch. Indeed, a cat was a cat. To think it would consider climbing such a high tree.

Be careful not to be caught below by that guy!

Looking under the big tree where he couldnt see very well among the trees, he saw the soldier standing there with an anxious look. At a glance, it looked like someone was waiting, just as Rieka had said.

Rather than catching that guy now and asking questions, its better to ask the one who will appear.

Staring at that guy while suppressing his presence, he noticed that Rieka, who had been on a high tree, had approached quickly, stepping on a tree branch.

[Hehe! It was a good idea to buy a communication device, as I said, right?]

Yes, thanks to it, we can use it like this.

Rieka had seen the need for a communication device when she saw Barvan using it, and she had bought a communication device for contact in case of unforeseen circumstances when she left the Havinel territory. However, at that time, it was right after she had left the Lukuba merchants, so she had no choice but to use G points for the situation.

In the end, I bought the communication device because of Riekas stubbornness.

At that time, Kaiyan wondered if there was a need for it, but when something like his happened, he found it quite pleasing. Of course, he hadnt thought he would use it in this manner.

Who could they be waiting for in a place like this?

Considering they were targeting Linda, its likely related to the Markain family. Probably not just any knight.

As Kaiyan and Rieka chatted while observing the soldier, within the broad range of his senses, the presence of someone who could be presumed to be a knight emerged.

Theyve arrived.

[They have? Where?]

Turning his gaze toward where he sensed the presence, after a moment of rustling through the bushes, a knight in half-armor appeared.

With short, fair hair and an oddly long scar on his face, he had quite a sinister appearance. His skills were at the level of a low-tier Aura user, similar to the ones who targeted Linda and Balon.

Oh!

Only then did the soldier who spotted the knight approach him urgently, and the knight, who had been watching him like a bug, spoke up.

So, did you kill them?

W-We failed.

What? You couldnt even handle such a simple task properly?

Its just When we tried to kill them, the knights from the 5th Inspection Bureau intervened. And they said they would contact the Empire directly We had no choice but to flee!

The 5th Inspection Bureau? Was it Bren and Baus? Well, both of them are known to be quite strict. I didnt expect them to go that far. If those guys who went to bring him hadnt messed up, things wouldnt have come to this!

Uhm

The soldier cautiously spoke up with a troubled expression, and the knight, who looked uncomfortable, opened his mouth.

So, does that mean I can enter the Markain family now?

Markain family? I see, so hes also a knight of the Markain family.

Kaiyan heard them talking and concluded.

Heh heh! Cant even handle a simple task and expect to enter the family?

But, but I did my best! Besides, I became a deserter to do the job you assigned me! If the Markain family doesnt accept me, Ill have to live as a fugitive.

A fugitive Its because youre doing the job I assigned you. Dont worry about it.

Then?

As the knights words brightened his face, the soldier suddenly furrowed his brow.

Why why?

With a single stroke, a longsword pierced the soldiers chest.

While it may have seemed to Kaiyan that the knight drew his sword and stabbed the soldier in slow motion, the soldier himself probably didnt even register it properly until the pain hit him.

The knight looked at the soldier bleeding and struggling as if enjoying the sight.

If you die here, theres no need to send you off as a fugitive, heh heh! So, die writhing in agony.

W-Why yo-you

As the knight withdrew the sword embedded in the soldiers chest, the soldier collapsed to the cold ground without being able to finish his sentence.

Rieka, who had watched this scene with wide eyes as if in shock, suddenly opened her mouth as if to express her shock.

[Kaiyan! That soldier may be a bad guy, but that guy is even worse! Breaking promises! You have to punish someone like him!]

Indeed, that guy is a bad one.

[Such a guy needs to be taught a lesson!]

Well, I already had that in mind.

As Kaiyan emerged from his concealed position with a relaxed demeanor, the guy who had been wiping the blood on his sword onto the soldiers clothes, all while emitting a sinister laugh, looked at him with a surprised expression.
