Chapter 324: The Goblin King Battle
In response to the movement of the goblins, Aeris quickly set up a barrier to prevent monsters from surrounding the besieged allies.
Although it may seem a little late to be doing this, the goblins were hesitant to enter the area because they didn’t want to be in the range of the wards.
Furthermore, Aeris continued to set up anti-magic wards.
The goblin mage, who was watching the situation from afar, started shooting at us chanting fire magic.
The goblin mage’s magic was blocked by the wards and burst on the spot, raining down on the goblins outside the wards and creating chaos, albeit on a small scale.
“While the warding is still in effect, finish off the Goblin Mage!”
One of the adventurers from the royal capital group shouted, and began to attack the goblin mage.
When Aeris confirmed this, she cast a new spell to strengthen the attack power of Ragune and Ankh’s vanguard.

Ragune and Ankh did not need to confirm this and headed toward the Goblin King.
The Goblin King holds a large sword in his right hand and a staff in his left.
Apparently, he can also use magic.
Ankh tries to attack from the left side of the enemy holding the staff, trying to keep him from using magic.
Ragune, on the other hand, is going at it from the enemy’s right side, holding out her shield to contain the great sword.
However, the large hobgoblins surrounding the surroundings stepped forward to block it.
However, in the next moment, the hobgoblins in the line of fire were shot down by the arrows fired from Tauro's powerful bow, and they died from the penetrating power of the arrows.
Ankh knew this and used the deadly hobgoblins as a blind spot against the Goblin King.
Then, without hesitation, he jumped into the Goblin King’s side and slashed at him.
The Goblin King, perhaps reading his movements, dodged the tip of Ankh’s great magic sword with plenty of time to spare,……, but that was Ahnk's intention.
However, the sword tip with invisible wind attribute cut off the Goblin King’s left wrist which held his staff.
Ad
Gah!
The Goblin King lets out a short cry.
At the same time, Ragune repelled a blow from the Goblin King’s great sword, which was swung down at her, with the “Mirror Magic Turtle Rectangular Shield” Tauro had gave her.
Then, without a moment of hesitation, she thrust her magic spear into the Goblin King’s flank.
Ggwaaaaaaah!
This must have caused the Goblin King a lot of pain, and he let out a shrieking cry.
Tauro did not miss that moment.
He knew that the Goblin King was wary of him because of the arrow in his left shoulder.
But the attack by Ragune and Ankh had relaxed his vigilance.
Tauro drew back Artemis’ bow and fired a full-length arrow of light at the Goblin King.
Ad
The arrow was sucked straight into the Goblin King’s chest, pierced through his heart, and stopped only when it pierced the hobgoblin’s forehead behind him.
Then the Goblin King’s large frame collapsed behind him in slow motion.
Zoon.
There was a dull thud when the Goblin King fell flat on his back to the ground, and after a moment’s pause, a cheer went up from the royal capital group.
Wow!
“We took down the Goblin King!”
“The rest is the sweeping up battle!”
“Everybody fight back!”
His voice was met with cheers from Viscount Danton’s forces.
The Viscount Danton’s forces, now empowered, gathered what strength they had left and launched a counterattack.
The goblin army lost their leader this time and began to flee, like scattered spiders.
In this situation, there is no advantage in numbers.
The goblin army was crushed, and a great victory for the humans was secured.
The mopping-up battle that followed was also very difficult.
If we let them go as they were, there were many of them, and there was a good chance they would attack other villages.
Ad
Therefore, we had to kill as many as we could.
Tauro and the others also wiped out the goblins like a massacre, and Aeris also switched from magic to a punching staff and went around killing goblins from one end to the other.
The battle continued until late at night.
“…… hahaha. It’s tough even for me with my increased stamina ……”
Among everyone who returned to the front line camp, Tauro was the first to let out a weak voice.
“…… I, too, focused my magic on increasing my strength, but I drank too many magic recovery potions ……. ─ ─ Oh, and the dirt and smell is so bad,……, Tauro, ‘purification’ please,…….”
Aeris was also dirty from a lot of goblin’s returned blood, she asked Tauro to help her get clean.
“Do the same for me. I’m sorry, but this time it’s just a little too much…”
And Ahnk.
“Me too. With me, please.”
And Ragune.
“…… Okay. Okay, I’ll put us all together and clean it up.... "Purification". ......!”
“””thank you……”””
Relieved that the unpleasant stains and smells were gone, the whole group quickly crawled into their tents at the encampment and went to bed early.
The next day, another goblin sweeping battle unfolded early in the morning.
However, the battle was over by noon, and we decided to meet up with Viscount Danton’s group to confirm the completion of the quest.
Goblins are everywhere, naturally, so there was no end to the sweeping.
The rest was left to the Viscount Danton’s soldiers and adventurers.
Then, Viscount Danton himself appeared.
He probably thought it would be a good idea to at least give the adventurers a little attention since the Goblin King had unexpectedly appeared.
“Everyone, well done subjugating the goblin army. The appearance of the Goblin King was unexpected, but I must say that the adventurers of the royal capital did a fine job, I heard that especially the B-rank team. Thank you once again! Rest assured that your reward will be paid securely through the Adventurers' Guild. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to deal with the aftermath.”
Viscount Danton replied and quickly returned to the capital.
“…… I was hoping to get a special reward on the spot, but he’s a stingy lord.”
One of the adventurers from the royal capital group quietly complained.
“Well, this is just another extension of the quest. The guild will give out rewards, so let’s hope for that.”
“Yes, yes. It’s still a quest until we report to the guild. Let’s get the hell out of here.”
With that, the adventurers of the royal capital group boarded their wagons.
The B-rank team, “Silver Goblin Hunters,” also silently boarded their carriage.
The initial vigor which Tauro and his team had been gushing was completely absent.
“…… Then let’s get on the carriage and go home too!”

Tauro said to the others and started his way back to the royal capital.
