Trash of the Count’s Family

like a rat caught in a jar.
He had looked scary while commanding the black trees from the darkness, however, it was not as scary as the knights had originally thought.

“We will pay you back for what happened during the battle with the Whipper Kingdom!”

The morale of all of the knights was going up.

Slash!
They were even able to cut through multiple branches using a sword covered in aura smoke.
These trees really were regular trees.
There was no need to be afraid.

The knight in charge started to smile.

“…my!”

‘Hmm?’

The Empire’s knights suddenly heard some soldiers shouting at that moment.
The shouts became louder and louder until the knight was able to hear it clearly.

“It ’s the enemy! The Jungle has invaded!”

‘What is he talking about?’
The Jungle and the Roan Kingdom are already in here.’

The knight heard a sharp noise cutting through the night before he even had a moment to ask his question.

Wiiiiiiiiing- Wiiiiiiing-

He heard a siren going off from the airship.
It was at that moment.

Boom!
Boooom!

The remaining two golems broke down.
The knight peeked toward the direction of a golem before his eyes opened wide.

He could see brown-skinned people who were faintly visible in the darkness.
He could see warriors climbing over the castle wall and the destroyed golem.

“Grrrrrr.”
“Grr- grrrrr-”

He could also hear the growling beasts whose eyes sparkled even in the darkness.
He could see the Jungle warriors entering Section 7 on foot or on these beasts with their weapon in their hands.

There were a lot of them.
He could see something within the group of warriors that climbed up the tall castle wall.

“Roooooooooooooooar!”

A large black panther roared while underneath the moonlight and the starlight.
That large yet agile body soon started to run.
It was heading toward where the last golem was falling.

“Ten!”

Ten lowered his body after hearing his name and a woman jumped on his back.
There was a large spear in her hand.

None of the people climbing over the castle wall and the golem were shouting in order to raise their morale.
They were slowly and stealthily moving in.

The knight subconsciously gulped after seeing the enemies that were moving in like a wave.
He heard someone ’s voice at that moment.

“Weren’t you aiming for me?”

The knight jerked his head back.
He could see Cale Henituse’s smiling face.
He heard another noise as he felt chills after seeing Cale quietly smiling at him.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh-
The sound of the leaves that he had been hearing since earlier was much louder now as Cale ’s sleeves started to flutter.
The knights rushing in flinched before slowly retreating backwards.
The knight urgently shouted.

“Retreat!”

Hundreds of tree branches suddenly shout out with Cale at the center.
They started to grow as they shot out.
The black trees were becoming thicker and stronger.

“Roooooar!”

The black panther, Ten, jumped up into the air.

Tap.
However, a new ground was soon created under Ten’s paws.
It was a black tree trunk.
A large tree became the ground for Ten to step onto.
A mage shouted from the airship at that moment.

“The magic circles are ready to activate!”

The alchemist in charge had veins popping out of his neck as he gave the order.

“Immediately activate the magic circles! Kill Cale Henituse!”

The black tree trunks around Cale were weaving together with each other as if they were a spider web.
They were above the ground and in the air.
They did not care about where they were as they weaved together in order to create a path.

The branches were heading toward one location.
The palace.
The branches were rushing toward the spot right underneath the airship.

Bang! Bang!
They also gobbled up dead mana bombs along the way.
Nothing seemed to be able to stop them.

“Hurry up!”

The magic circles activated as the alchemist urged them on.

Ooooooooong-
The magic circles and the magic stones above them started to shine.
However, the alchemist on the airship started to frown.

He was looking at the castle wall.
There was something flying up into the sky from underneath the castle wall.

It was someone whose hair was as red as the fire spells that the Empire had prepared.
Rosalyn was flying toward the airship.
Red mana was swaying around her as if it was a cape.

‘Damn it!
Just how much did they prepare?!’

The alchemist slammed down on the railing.
His gaze then turned toward the person at the center of the approaching enemies.
He could see the red hair above the now black Section 7 ground.

Cale, the owner of that red hair, started to speak.
He gave an order to the tree trunks.

“Grow.”

Keep growing.
Grow to the point that the enemies will fear you.

“Stretch out.”

Keep moving forward.
Move to kill the enemy.

Cale shouted while looking at the spiderweb-like path made of tree trunks.

“Charge!”
“Rooooooooooar!”

The black panther Ten roared as he kicked off the tree trunk.
He then started to run.
Litana aimed her spear forward with one hand.

“Let ’s go.”

Choi Han stepped on the tree trunks that reached toward the North and started to run toward the center.
The two Dark Elves followed behind him.
It was the same for Mary and Tasha.
All of them were running along that wooden black road.

They heard Cale ’s voice once more.

“All units, charge forward!”

North, South, East, West.
The Jungle warriors who were used to running on trees more than anybody else all started to run across the tree trunks.
They weren ’t the only ones.
Some of the people of the Jungle who had been quietly hiding started to climb the tree trunks that had been shielding their homes like shields.

Some of them were riding animals while others were running toward the same location.
They were all running toward the airship that was located above the palace at the center of Section 7.

“N, no!”

The alchemist subconsciously took a step back after seeing all these people running toward him.
He felt a pressure as if a black tsunami was headed toward him.

Screeeech-

The airship clunked at that moment.

”W, what the…?”
“We ’ve been captured! Leader-nim, we ’re caught!”
“What?”

The alchemist urgently looked down after hearing the desperate voice of the pale subordinate.
He looked at the bottom of the airship.
There were black tree trunks grabbing onto the bottom of the airship.
Cale started to smile.

“Got you.”

Everything within Section 7 was caught in Cale ’s hands.
