Prologue 9
Three soldiers up ahead. Five slaves to the right. They’re going to clash.
I navigated through the chaos by using 【World Ruler】. We moved behind the rubbles of collapsed buildings and avoided the soldiers and slaves who were fighting. We could only hope that no one would care about an old man and a child.
There was only one entrance to the mine. It was narrow, lined up with wooden barricades, and, naturally, had many soldiers guarding it.
Over 50 slaves and a mixed force of 100 soldiers and adventurers clashed.
「Wow…」
The sound of swords colliding and flashy magic attacks filled the spot near the entrance.
Although there were many strong slaves, the defense force, which was superior in terms of numbers and locational advantage, had the upper hand.
I was momentarily stunned seeing people attacking each other violently, the screams, and the thick smell of blood. However, I quickly came to my senses.
Is it possible to slip through the confusion? –No, even a mouse couldn’t slip through their defense line. Should I attack the weakest point in their line? –No, with my physical ability, I can’t take down even the weakest adult in this place. Should I jump across from somewhere higher? –No, I can’t do that while carrying the old man.
