Oukoku e Tsuzuku Michi

Consecutive Battle – First Day.

Pochi’s shadow stretches as the sun starts to set.

Not wanting to wait until he lands, I hop off Pochi’s back when we’re about 2 m above the ground.

Leopolt’s cold voice precedes Celia’s words thanking me for the hard work.

「Did you have any success?」

「None. I have no clue where it is.」

The harpies walk unsteadily out of the cage attached to Pochi.

For how dim they are, they did their best, and I obviously also put forth my best effort.

「If insect hydras can crawl out of it, it should be fairly big.」

The place has pretty much been identified as being between the side of the Dard mountain and the peak.

If a large hole has been opened there, Pipi should have found it long ago with all the scouting she has done.

But the hole might not be limited to the vertical plane.

It might be positioned horizontally within a depression on the surface of the mountain, making it hard to see from above.

That’s why I decided to fly one lap at an altitude low enough to scrape the mountain surface, though it still didn’t produce any results.

「Not to mention we got hit by a hairy caterpillar hidden in a cave.」

I gently hug one of the harpies that is wrapped in a blanket.

This one was hit with a needle and almost crashed.

We somehow caught her in midair, pulled out the needle and extracted the poison on the spot, so now she’s sleeping peacefully.

Pochi growls as his eyes converge in the center of his face.

Oh right, a needle hit him in between his eyebrows too.

「You should be fine because of your scales, pull it out yourself.」

I grabbed a brush and was about to draw a mark on Leopolt’s map, but realized it was pointless and tossed it away.

「After today, we’ve looked at all expected places it could be. There’s no need to mark them anymore. I guess we’ll have to expand our search area?」

Leopolt shakes his head.

「I have just collected new testimonies and re-analyzed them, and the hole is without a doubt located between the mountainside and the summit. Rather than expanding our area, I suggest we search the area again.」

「I couldn’t find anything though. It doesn’t make sense that you want me to search again despite having been there just because it doesn’t match your theory.」

Leopolt doesn’t budge.

「It has not been determined to be out of the range. It’s possible that the hole was overlooked or perhaps in a hard-to-detect rock formation. We should search the same area again.」

He’s so stubborn.

「......if you insist, I’ll go again.」

I can’t say I’ve checked every single suspicious point.

Especially when the harpy was hit with the needle, half my attention went to staying alert while the other half continued scouting, so I might have lacked thoroughness in my search.

「I will leave tomorrow’s reconnaissance plans to you. I’m going to rest a little.」

With that said, I turn to Celia and pat her head.

「Aegir-sama......」

Celia shows me a delighted expression, but she soon breaks down to the verge of tears.

「You’ll scout from morning to evening, then you’ll return and fight until dawn――without any time to sleep, your body won’t hold!」

「I’m getting a bit of rest to and from on Pochi’s back.」

It can’t be helped.

If we lose the battle, we’ll all be annihilated, and if we don’t find the hole to the abyss, we’ll eventually be wiped out.

I look up at the orange sun sinking in the sky.

At this rate, I’ll have about two hours until battle.

「I guess I’ll go find a girl to embrace.」

「Please go to sleep!!」

When Celia pulls my arm, I fondle her ass and neutralize her.

Sensing the atmosphere change in such a way, Rafaella hops on my back, returning to her usual spot.

「It’s the body of a female that I’ve been longing for. It appears I can’t hold back anymore.」

Mel is doing laundry in front of the carriage for sexual relations.

It is typical of a responsible person like her to not want to cause trouble for soldiers or those in charge of chores.

Seeing Mel do that, I go up to her and hug her from behind.

「Fueh!? A-Aegir-san? No, you mustn’t!」

Mel tries to escape my embrace by shaking her arms and ass in resistance.

「I’m happy, but you shouldn’t! You must properly rest during the short time you have for break!」

But I suppress her flailing, put her hands on the carriage, pull down her underwear and flip up her skirt.

「The warmth of a woman’s body is the best kind of rest.」

「You haven’t even gotten your wounds treated――aguh!」

I plunge my cock, which had been erect during my entire time scouting possibly from the thrill of danger or my fatigue, into Mel’s hole.

「Uuuu......even though I wanted you to rest......」

Mel essentially gave up when I entered her depths and stuck her ass out to accept my thrust.

But that is when I realized it.

We are beside the carriage where soldiers are rising and preparing for the upcoming battle after the sun goes down.

Mel is in the middle of all of them with her bare ass swallowing my cock.

Getting attention can’t begin to describe the situation.

「Hiiih! Inside! Hurry and get inside!」

「Of course.」

I grab Mel’s waist and release everything inside.

Her white ass trembles and thick globs of white liquid trickles down her thighs.

「I didn’t mean cum inside, I was talking about getting inside the carriage――!! Forget it. I got over it last night! If you want to humiliate an older lady, do as you wish!」

Mel blushes and takes the offensive by kissing me back as I fuck her in the outside air, and then we go inside the carriage when we’re done.

While getting lectured by the women waiting inside, I push them down gently and make love to them too.

It was like my fatigue transformed into semen and was expelled through my penis......

「Aegir-sama, the enemy group is closing in. If you are tired, I can temporarily substitute for you......」

「No thanks, I’m going.」

I wear my armor and take the Dual Crater in my right hand, as well as the Keravnos in my left.

「It’s a bigger horde than last night......the fight will be tough.」

Celia peeks into the carriage and recoils.

I don’t blame her. The other girls are covered in semen and lying exhaustedly.

Maria is even pissing herself while unconscious.

「Uuu, Nonna-san are you okay?」

「I can’t take anymore......can’t stand. Someone wipe my face......so much semen, I can’t open my eyes......」

「Aegir-san must have lost his mind. I knew it, he’s too tired. I’ll get him to sleep today for sure.」

「If Aegir isn’t here and we lose, it’s all over. He has to push himself and we have to accept it. That’s the only way.」

The battle that night was fierce, and I, wet with the blood of my allies and the insects, rampaged wildly.

Then, as the morning sun rose, I mounted Pochi and once again departed on a reconnaissance mission.

Consecutive Battle – Second Day.

「No results.」

I roughly scribble on the map and head to the carriage.

The shoulder that was hit with a poisonous needle hurts.

Although I pulled it out immediately after it stabbed me and extracted the poison with a knife, the wound still remains.

Perhaps it’s because we flew too low that a worm jumped out of a cave and hit Pochi, causing me to also bang my forehead from the impact.

More importantly, my senses are unusually sensitive due to the fact I’ve been on high alert throughout the scouting.

「Aegir-sama, you have about one hour until the battle today. I’ll let you sleep on my lap, so please rest......」

Celia stands in my way.

The moment our eyes meet, my cock swells.

I want to push Celia down and screw her.

If her tight hole rubs me, surely incredible pleasure will――

「Prepare for the enemy attack.」

I suppress my lust with my reason.

Celia also has to fight in an hour.

If I rough her up and she trips at a crucial point, that will lead to death.

My pent-up lust moves my body against my will.

「A woman......I want a woman.」

Carla and Nonna are waiting for me inside the carriage.

The two of them don’t tell me to rest, instead they get naked and hug me.

Their expressions are somewhat stiff.

「You’re injured. Miti, bring some ointment and bandages.」

Carla circles to my back while Nonna entices me by spreading her legs.

Her snow white breasts that are larger than her limbs and head, and her cunt that only knows me――

「Aguh! I-it has gotten bigger than yesterday――kuuuh.」

Carla treats my wound while I’m inserting into Nonna.

I notice myself speeding up my thrusts everytime I feel the dull pain from the wound.

Even though Nonna is desperately enduring it underneath me and I know I have to hold back, I can’t stop.

「Aaah, it feels good. Nonna......my Nonna......」

Nonna is already clenching her teeth and wraps her arms around my neck, clinging to me.

This is where I should stop my hips and kiss her gently.

「Haa, haa......more. I’m going to go deeper!」

「U, uugh! Agguh!!」

Yet I savagely suck on Nonna’s tit, hold her shoulder down and thrust my hips.

Nonna’s hands leave my neck and turn around, grabbing the sheets instead.

「Bear it until the treatment is finished!」

Closing her eyes, Nonna nods, but then screams and arches back when the speed of my thrusts increases, and she eventually faints and collapses.

「Treatment is done. Melissa, wash his body.」

「Understood. A-Aegir-san? Ah, it’s no good, he has the eyes of a beast.」

I separate from the unconscious Nonna and push Carla down.

I open her legs forceful enough to surprise even myself and enter her.

「I-it isn’t normal after all! It’s thick and hard――!」

My thoughts are becoming more blurred by the second.

Only the feeling of my hips slamming against Carla and the sensation of my back being washed is searing my brain.

「Carla-san is gone too! I’ll take over next, Maria please prepare the food!」

I tear Melissa’s clothes apart, lay her face down and penetrate her.

「Ah, this is bad. I can’t run if I’m mounted in this position――」

When I apply my entire weight on her, Melissa claws at the floor and writhes.

Frog-like croaks leak from the mouth of the bewitching woman.

「......Maria, hurry......at this rate......I won’t last ten minutes......」

「Fueeh, don’t rush me.」

Despite my fuzzy thoughts, I am aware enough to walk from Melissa to Maria, to Adela, and to Mireille.

Night falls and then I hear the lookout shout.

I stand up and grab both my weapons.

Melissa is twitching with her eyes rolled back, Adela scampers aboard the carriage and pisses herself, and Mireille lays motionless in agony with her asshole gaping wide.

「......sorry. I’m going now.」

I lower my head slightly and climb Pochi before my lust ignites again.

「......master has turned into an animal.」

「This is impossible. We can’t handle him even if everyone surrounds him tomorrow.」

「Nevertheless......unless we take care of it......my apologies. I can’t stop peeing.」

Consecutive Battle – Third Day.

「No results. I can’t find it!」

「Is that so?」

I kick apart a wooden barrel nearby and yell at Leopolt.

「......this is bad. I think tonight will be the last night we’ll be able to hold the line. Actually, it will likely be a mortal combat that will depend on luck whether we win or lose.」

I follow Tristan’s line of sight to the soldiers, who are totally exhausted.

The night battles have been growing more difficult every night, with six insect hydras appearing in last night’s fierce battle and inflicting several thousands of casualties.

There will undoubtedly be an even greater number of casualties tonight.

「More importantly, you should get medical attention......your wound has opened.」

My back is stained with blood.

A gash from last night’s battle tore open during my reconnaissance.

But I don’t respond to the worried Celia, and instead walk towards the carriage.

「Women......women......」

「Uuu, he’s already a sex beast.」

I walk unsteadily with my erection pushing tightly against my pants.

Suddenly, there is a gap in the ground.

「The encampment is done here. Around three people can fit inside.」

A crate resembling a stone is placed over a simple pit to keep it hidden.

It is probably an evacuation shelter to evade the enemy.

It is not a particularly special encampment, but it triggers my mind to connect it to something I’ve seen today.

My lust-filled mind clears for a split second.

「Pochi, come here quickly!!」

Soldiers around me yelp in shock and fall on their butts as I hear a roar in the distance, and Pochi flies over while rubbing his eyes.

The worthless mutt is sleeping on his head too.

I jump on Pochi before he lands and I shout in his ear.

「Follow the same course you flew for today’s scouting. Go as fast as you can.」

I also load a bunch of torches that I asked Celia to bring.

「Lord Hardlett, it’s getting dark. Can you guarantee results if you scout at this time?」

I order Pochi to depart and then answer Leopolt.

「It didn’t work during the day when those things aren’t moving.」

「You haven’t answered the――」

「Just leave it to me. You focus on withstanding today’s attack!」

Pochi lifts off and I can no longer hear Leopolt’s voice.

I shout in Pochi’s ear.

「The place we went today......go there. The part where the mountain stretches out until there......where the summit expands before you......you know, where the rock that looks like a woman’s crotch is.」

Pochi makes a sad face like he doesn’t know what I’m talking about, but when Messerschmitt yawns and barks in his ear, Pochi nods and increases his speed. I’m surprised he understood me from that explanation just now.

Pochi flies at a speed that will throw anybody off his back unless you’re careful.

Even so, because it was around evening when we departed, it was already pitch black when we reached the mountain area.

Pochi’s eyes narrow in fear and he whines feebly.

I’m pretty sure he’s saying he can’t see anything.

「It’s fine. I have a general idea. I just have to confirm it――dowah!」

Countless needles hit against Pochi’s scales along with repeated metallic clinks.

Although I can’t see them, I’m sure the ground is covered with insects.

If we lowered the altitude like we did during the day, we’d be porcupines.

Pochi, while conversing with Messerschmitt, flies up at a higher altitude and begins circling the peak.

「Alright, it should be around here......hup.」

I light a torch on top of Pochi and toss it down.

The flame of the torch is small compared to the blackness of the mountain.

The light as faint as stardust increases from one to two to three......

「Argh, so slow!!」

I light a pot of oil itself with the torch and throw it overboard.

The pot spins irregularly in the air as it falls, then smashes apart as it hits the mountain and produces a pillar of fire.

In that moment, the nearby rocks move.

No, they are not rocks.

Those are insect hydras――and there are a lot of them.

To the insect hydras, the torches and even the fire from the oil pot are merely weak embers.

「Still, having sparks suddenly appear before their eyes should frighten them.」

The massive bodies move.

The one on the right twists its body. That’s not worth worrying about.

The one on the left threatens me. Do as you wish.

The one in the middle retracts itself.

A boulder resembling a lid, measuring about ten meters tall and five meters wide, falls over.

「Found it.」

Somewhere along the time of those things continuing to overflow from the opening, a part of the mountain side collapsed and a boulder landed on top of the hole.

After a brief moment, the insects realize the fire is nothing more than a spark and once again, the boulder is lifted and the insect hydras crawl out.

At its feet, an endless swarm of insects follow.

「So the insect hydras push the stone. This could never be seen during the day.」

I pick up another pot that doesn’t contain oil and throw it down.

It doesn’t miss and falls near the hole, breaking apart and scattering a red dye.

「Let’s pull out. We’ll destroy it tomorrow morning.」

As expected, it’s impossible for Pochi and I to take on this many enemies and seal the hole.

Pochi turns back in relief.

Then all of a sudden, Messerschmitt starts howling.

I wonder how long it has been since I’ve heard him howl. I thought he was just a useless dog that would remain sleeping even when a robber breaks in.

And, as if responding to the howling, a low-pitched grating cry......no, I don’t know if it’s closer to a cry than a groan.

In any case, the unpleasant sound resonates throughout the entire Dard mountain.

「Is that the voice of the insect hydra? No, that’s not it.」

Those things are making creepy noises below us.

Regardless, we have to hurry back.

The battle against the monsters is starting at camp too.

It’s no laughing matter if they lose due to our absence after we’ve gone through so much trouble to find the hole.

――Next Morning.

「Let’s start with the conclusion. Both the royal army and private army suffered immense losses and are extremely fatigued, and it is impossible to fight any longer. Today’s battle will decide the fate of the entire war front.」

Nobody refutes Leopolt’s words.

Rinuga and Dingus also nod weakly.

Erich has his arms folded and his eyes closed.

With the battle in the west also looking unfavorable, it seems they ran from west to east.

「Thus there is no need to consider preserving our forces. And we don’t have to think about losses either.」

Leopolt taps the paper stuck on a handmade wooden plank with a similarly handmade stick.

「The hole has been confirmed by Lord Hardlett to be at this point near the summit. It is obviously impossible for infantry and cavalry to march there in half a day, so we will only be using Po-......that to carry as many forces as possible, a small number of elites.」

So he intends to refrain from calling Pochi by name at all costs.

「The strategy is simply to project the maximum amount of firepower at it, but since our target is a hole, it is impossible to destroy it directly.」

That much is clear.

A wall or tower can be toppled, but punching a hole won’t break it.

「Our attack target will instead be the top of the Dard mountain. We will attack here from the north and east to trigger a large rock slide and seal the hole.」

「So you’re saying we need to cause an explosion with gunpowder......or something?」

When Erich raises the question, Leopolt pauses and then continues.

「No, the insect hydras can push up a rock weighing dozens of tons. Rocks from a gunpowder-induced explosion can easily be moved away.」

「......then what do we do?」

Leopolt looks at Erich and boldly replies.

「We don’t do anything.」

Dingus stops Erich right as he stands up.

「Therefore, we will deploy all of our uncertain but extremely powerful unknown sources of firepower, blast the peak at least 100 meters from the base and send the rubble toward the hole.」

He put it rather simply, but the gist is that we have to smash the tip of the Dard mountain.

Leopolt looks in my direction.

Pochi growls. Unknown firepower number one is him.

「He just understands human language, huh......?」

Dingus is making a conflicted expression.

「Unknown firepower number two, operation has been grasped.」

Tikuku raises her hand and rotates her head.

Rinuga reels back.

「A-am I unknown firepower number three......? I-I’ll do my best......ah.」

Something slides out from Alice’s ass as she timidly raises her hand.

「A piece of a worm!? What are you doing with something so dangerous!?」

Celia slaps Alice back and forth on the cheek.

Alright, stop it there.

「Unknown firepower four? Fufu, looks like I’ve gained a strange nickname.」

「That makes me unknown firepower five. Fufu, how amusing.」

Yularen and Ijaris giggle.

When they realize Erich staring at their cleavage and their thighs, they purposely open more of their chest and fold their legs over the other way.

「Unknown firepower six――I’m counting on you.」

When I smile at Brynhildr, who doesn’t often show up in places like this, she punches me in the solar plexus.

There is a familiar man clothed in black next to her, but is he going to act during the day?

「There are three things to keep in mind for this operation. First, the time limit is when the sun goes down......needless to say, it is impossible to fight in the heart of what can be described as the enemy’s spawning location.」

That’s obvious.

「Second, there is a high density of enemies at the peak and we can expect a considerable number of residual enemies in the mountain even during the day in places like caves where the sun doesn’t reach.」

There are countless places in a mountain that are dark.

We have to pay special attention to insects that attack from long range like the hairy caterpillars and worms that hide in narrow holes.

「Third, it is possible that the enemy’s greatest threat, the insect hydra, is beginning to develop a resistance to light. It has been confirmed that they remained for up to 20 minutes after the sun rose.」

「Hey, hey.」

Erich looks up at the sky.

There is likely no chance after this so let’s not think about that.

「The details of the operation and other information are mentioned on the papers distributed to each of you. Well then――」

Leopolt looks at me.

I’m guessing it’s because the order to commence the operation is ultimately mine to give.

Erich gives Leopolt a harsh stare, but his expression doesn’t change.

「Unknown firepower seven. Awaiting the order to start the operation.」

「Hey.」

Erich, don’t burst out either.

「Alright, operation start. The plan is simple, you only have to aim at the peak of the mountain with your maximum firepower and break the tip. The particulars are yours to figure out. That is all!!」

「Yeah!」「Yessir!」「Right!」「Okaay.」「Understood.」「Mm.」「Grawwrー」

I’ve never heard such an uncoordinated response.

「Wahahahaha!! With so many mighty individuals gathered, there’s so way we’ll lose!!」

Irijina laughs cheerfully as she swings her spear around.

An ordinary insect, which looks cute at this point, crawls up her leg.

「Spiders!」

She squishes the bug with the butt of her spear.

「And worms!」

She stomps on an earthworm with her boot.

「And rhinoceros beetles!」

She kicks away a pill bug.

「They are nothing to fear!」

She slices a centipede cleanly in two with the tip of her spear.

Everyone, including Erich and I, chuckles reflexively at her baseless confidence and hearty laughter.

「Alright, let’s go.」

Everyone climbs onto Pochi’s back.

Tikuku seems especially heavy, but Pochi will just have to do his best to carry all of us.

In addition, it seems Pochi is equipped with strange equipment crafted by a dwarf.

Hey, think about the weight.

「I already reluctantly made it as light as possible! It’s not going to be as durable, but at least something is better than nothing.」

With everyone on board, Pochi flaps his wings a little harder than normal and lifts off.

「The plan is for the two elves and Alice to fire a shot on top of Pochi first. If there are any enemies around the hole, that should wipe them out.」

I turn around when I hear a voice behind me and see Celia. She isn’t counted in the members for the sortie, meaning she’s a stowaway.

Because Rafaella had always been on my back recently, it felt so natural for something to be there that I didn’t even notice.

「To keep things as light as possible, I only wore a shirt and pants, no underwear! Turning back now will be more of a burden for Pochi.」

No wonder I felt small protrusions on my back and a warmth on my lower back.

It certainly is not worth the hassle to travel back to get rid of a trivial weight in Celia.

Pochi has already risen to quite a high altitude and Irijina’s loud voice is also becoming faint.

「Do your beeeeessst!! Wahahahahaha......wah, something stung me! A bee! I was stung by a bee!!」

I can’t hear her anymore.

「Since there are no enemies that can fly, as long as we are careful of the hairy caterpillars, it’ll be a one-sided bombardment. I will lead the attack! After all, there are no enemies that can fly!」

Celia puffs out her chest.

It’s like our victory is guaranteed.
