A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War!

Chapter 111: (1)



“Kaiyan!”

Rieka’s urgent voice rang in his ears.

As he slowly opened his heavy eyelids, he saw Rieka’s worried face looking at him with concern.

“Ugh…”

“Kaiyan! Are you okay? Quickly, take out the Elixir!”

“Elixir…? Oh, my condition?”

Kaiyan raised his arm and examined his hand, remembering the two times he had been hit by Canien’s tentacles.

“I seem fine.”

“What?! Your body was on the brink of death just a moment ago!”

“Oh, it’s not a dream, then. Right, I made a contract with that guy. He promised to completely heal my body in exchange… Urgh!”

As he sat up, vitality surged through his body as if asking when he had been injured.

He had thought it was just a dream, but meeting that mysterious being seemed all too real now, judging by the state of his body.

“What’s that about?”

He looked around his body, and Rieka rushed towards him as if she would burst into tears any moment.

“It’s okay. It seems like that guy healed my body as promised.”

“What…?”

“I don’t know how to put it into words. So, you see…”

Kaiyan explained the situation to Rieka, starting from his battle with Canien, the use of the platform, and encountering the mysterious being afterward. Rieka’s eyes widened in astonishment as if she couldn’t believe her ears, and she clapped her front paws together as if she were truly surprised.

“No way!”

“Why? Do you know who that guy is?”

“While I can speculate about the identity of the person Kaiyan met… I can’t say.”

“Huh? Why not?”

Seeing Rieka so surprised, meant that the person in question was quite extraordinary. But why couldn’t she share the information with him?

Rieka sighed, looking somewhat troubled.

“Well… It’s because it’s not appropriate for someone at Kaiyan’s level to hear about that person… That person is such a being.”

“What do you mean?”

“That’s why… Um…”

Kaiyan couldn’t understand why Rieka, who was clearly so shocked, couldn’t share the information. Just when he was about to insist on an answer…

Ding! Ding!

“Huh? What’s this?”

Just as he was about to grab Rieka and ask her to tell him, the silent notification window suddenly began to ring continuously. He checked the notification window.

[You have received a choice.]

[Player system — attempts to intervene.]

“What kind of strange notification is this?”

“Wow! I don’t know how you pleased that being, but it’s a good thing! Kaiyan!”

While Rieka was delightedly looking at the notification, Kaiyan couldn’t be as happy. He had received help from that guy, but the fact that he still couldn’t know his identity bothered him.

Moreover, even though he had no choice at that time, the fact that he had entered into a contract with the mysterious being without knowing his identity weighed on his mind.

Ding! [—‘s intervention complete.]

[You have obtained the Golden Dice.]

[You have obtained a Lucky Pouch.]

[The Steady Step skill has been created.]

[The Luck Vault skill has been activated.]

[The Random Skill Lottery skill has been activated.]

“…So many? Is this the power he mentioned?”

With countless notifications ringing in his ears, Kaiyan finally understood what the power the entity had mentioned was.

It had granted him powers using the player system.

“Wow! So many skills! he must be a very benevolent being!”

“But why are most of them related to luck?”

When he turned to look at Rieka, she seemed uncomfortable with my question and avoided eye contact.

“…I can’t tell you that.”

“Sigh… Alright, I won’t ask anymore. Right now, it’s more important to stop that creature.”

Even as they briefly conversed, Canien continued to wreak havoc on Lumbanium Castle, as if he intended to reduce it to rubble, or even dust, rather than spare it.

At least he hadn’t pursued those who had fled outside.

“Shouldn’t you go? People must be fleeing as well! There’s no need for you to sacrifice yourself anymore, Kaiyan! And his power… it’s overwhelming for you to face alone.”

“I understand. At the very least, a special unit I’ve seen on the battlefield needs to arrive to deal with him. But we can’t just leave him like this. If we destroy this place and move to another castle, it’s only a matter of time before that one is reduced to rubble as well.”

Unless the magicians of Lumbanium Castle were fools, they would have already sent a communication to Mareon Imperial Palace.

However, the problem was that even if the empire knew, the number of Aura Masters and 6th Circle mages did not add up to the five members he had seen in the special unit before.

“There’s no point in coming here with so few numbers. If the empire is aware of this fact, they won’t send them until at least five are gathered. If even one of them accidentally dies, it would be an enormous loss for the empire.”

For now, what the empire could do was request support from neighboring kingdoms for Aura Masters and 6th Circle mages, and wait until they gathered. In the meantime, there was one to handle that monster, except for Kaiyan.

“Kaiyan…”

Looking at Rieka, who was watching with concern, he reached out and stroked her head before standing up.

“It’s okay. This time, there are new skills and items that have been created because of that unknown entity… So we’ll find a way somehow.”

“Then please take me with you. Let’s fight together this time.”

“That’s…”

“Even if you don’t take me, I’ll follow you!!”

It seems that when I was almost overwhelmed by Canien and nearly killed, she was quite surprised. Seeing Rieka’s firm gaze, it seemed unavoidable.

Reluctantly, he lifted Rieka into his arms. If she followed, this would be the safest place for her.

“Rieka, you have to be careful. If you feel even a little danger, immediately retreat and stay behind, okay?”
