Chapter 99: Beastfolk Was Stronk

The harbour turned into pandemonium.

Sent ahead to clear a path for the main forces, the vanguard of the beastfolk was rampaging in the harbour.

 

The fully armed, thick-furred beastfolk—endowed with sharp fangs and claws along with a build rivalling that of an orc—was otherwise known as the bear tribe.

The knights of the holy country were easily sent flying by them.
They were massacred even before the reinforcements arrived.

 

「MWAHAHAHAHA! THESE HUMANS ARE TOO FRAGILE!!」

 

The biggest one amongst those armies of the bear tribe was laughing heartily.

With a height taller than two meters and a single glance at the contours of his frame and fur, one could easily guess that beneath that was densely packed muscle.

 

「GUH!」

「M-monster…」

 

The Holy Knights who might be defeated by him muttered this.

 

At that moment, the reinforcements finally arrived.

The harbor city was the entrance of the holy country.
It was a vital path that connected directly to the capital of the country.
For that reason, the garrison of the Holy Knight Order was stationed in the center of the harbor city.

 

「KILL THESE BEASTFOLKS B*STARDS!!」

 

The captain of the Holy Knights raised an angry roar and ordered the archery team to fire their arrows.

 

「FIREEEEEEEEEE!」

A rain of arrows pelted the beastfolk.

But the most unbelievable thing happened.
Even though most of the arrows struck true, they fell without even piercing the target.

 

「MWAHAHAHAHA! THESE FLIMSY ARROWS CAN’T EVEN TICKLE US!」

「WHA—」

「The arrows… can’t hurt them?!」

「Seriously… like dragon scales!」

 

The arrows were repelled by the beastfolk’s muscle armor.

As if ridiculing the dumbfounded Holy Knights, the leader of the beastfolk, the one with the biggest body, ordered his subordinates.

“”

 

「GO! TEACH THOSE FOOLS HOW STRONG WE ARE!」

「「「WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!」」」

 

At that moment, the bear beastfolk raised a united warcry and leapt toward the Holy Knights.

 

「D-DON’T FALTER! WE’RE GUIDED BY THE HEAVENS!」

「「「OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!」」」

 

The Holy Knights raised their weapons in a hurry to prepare for the clash with the beastfolk, but both their faith and preparedness crumbled easily.
They were no match for the beastfolk who used their weight and height to the fullest.

 

「「「?!」」」

They got blown away so easily like scraps of paper.

On the other hand, the bear beastfolk became more frenzied than before, as if they were just kicking pebbles.

 

「Those so-called knights turned out to be so weak.」

「Calling them weak is an overstatement.」

「And we’re supposed to be scared of these humans.
Seriously, I have no idea why our predecessors are so scared of these humans.」

 

At that moment, a shadow plunged into their formation.

 

「Then, let me show you b*stards the power of humans.」

「「「…!!」」」

 

Suddenly, some of them were blown into the air, and the culprit was a single man.

Although his physique couldn’t rival that of the bear tribe, he was quite tall with wide shoulders and a bulky chest.

 

His white hair was enough indication of his old age, and yet, his explosive fighting spirit was nothing like that of an old man.

 

「「「GAH?!」」」

 

Even the bear beastfolk who could repel arrows with their solid muscle were sent flying by the old man.

 

「W-who the h*ll is this guy?」

「Tch, it’s only one person! KILL HIM!」

 

Even if he was surrounded by beastfolk, power wasn’t the only thing that the old man had in his arsenal.

Using the minimum amount of movement, he dodged and parried their attacks.
In short, he was toying with the beastfolk.

 

「You guys rely too much on your strength.
Your movements are sloppy.」

 

He even had the leeway to point out the other party’s weakness.

 

「Now… who’s next?」

「No way, is he the rumored… former gold-rank adventurer?」

「I hear that he’s a devout believer who visited this country many times for pilgrimage, but…」

 

The Holy Knights were dumbfounded seeing the man who overwhelmed the beastfolk.
Meanwhile, the captain of the beastfolk was nearing his limit of patience upon seeing that none of his subordinates could beat the old man.

 

「Out of my way.
I’ll take care of that guy.」

 

He rushed in immediately.

The old man who noticed the incoming enemy also raised his vigilance.

 

「Huh, not bad.」

「THAT’S MY LINE!」

 

Against the attack of the beastfolk whose sharp claws could turn him into mincemeat in an instant, the man dodged the attack by a hair’s breadth and counterattacked by using the opening.

But unlike the average beastfolk, the man’s attack didn’t work on the captain.

 

Judging that his attack didn’t work on the captain of the beastfolk, the old man quickly changed his tactics and focused on dodging.

「FUHAHAHA! FINALLY GIVING UP, EH! YOUR ATTACK FELT LIKE A BABY’S PUNCH TO M—?! W-WHAT’S WITH THE FOCUSED FIGHTING SPIRIT IN YOUR ARM?!」

「PALM EXPLOSION WAVE!!!」

 

The focused fighting spirit was released at once from the old man’s palm.

 

「UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH?!」

 

Even the huge beastfolk were blown away toward the sea, creating a grandiose sheet of spray in his wake.

 

「Oof… As expected of beastfolk, to be able to become that powerful just by relying on physical strength… What a troublesome opponent.」

 

The old man heaved a sigh.

At that moment, he finally detected a presence behind him.

 

「Good grief… even though I could finally go on a pilgrimage after entrusting the rest of my job to my subordinates… Only to find myself in this kind of situation.」

 

Before he knew it, another bear beastfolk whose size was bigger than the one who just fell into the sea stood behind him.

 

「You’ve caused quite a lot of trouble for my subordinates, eh.」

「That guy wasn’t the boss, huh…」

 

BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

The sound akin to a head-on collision between trains running at full speed resounded in the harbor.

The result was that the old man was blown away like a ball.
