Chapter 115: (Self Edited) Invasion
It was in the daytime two days later that the sound was heard.
At that time, I was just waiting in the study room on the second floor. I hurried to the window with my almost-healed feet. Looking from the opened window, there were five horses at the entrance of the village. They were doing something like mark time.
The sudden loud volume caused by the stones and the tools might have surprised the horses. It seemed that the horses were calming down.
I blew the whistle I had prepared while suppressing the beating heart. The high pitch sound would have been heard by the enemy. However, since the operation was carried out in cooperation with Carol, it was definitely more important to contact Carol.
Of course, the five cavalry noticed the sound of the whistle and looked at my direction. I took the bow I had prepared.
It was placed in a house that seemed to have been hunting for a living. It was a longbow that could be used for wild boards, instead of the shortbow that I had been using until now. With this, the range was completely different.
I drew and shot it, aiming slightly above the target. The curved arrow drew a gentle curve and pierced the ground far from the horse. I literally picked up the arrow and fired it in a quick session.
When the arrow pierced the ground, creating *tum* *tum* sound, the commander seemed to give instructions which I couldn’t recognize because they were too far away. Then, four of the five horses ran toward us.
Since the scale of the attack, the commander decided to crush the enemy because he thought it was a small number and could be eliminated. However, in the unlikely event that the calculation was off by any chance, they left one horse to bring back the information. That should be it.
