Rebirth Online World

Chapter 6: Chibi general
(Tl note: werewolf 1/3 … so many debt piling up)

Thanks to Count Airia cooperation I was able to sleep without too much trouble at night. Of course I still have someone to do watch in shifts just in case something distrubing happened.

In the next morning, Ryun city has regained it’s calmness.
“Last night, there are some bandits but it was only a few people.”

A youngster from the wolf corps is giving their report in my room. Perhaps it is because he saw my fight with the Gurnee brother yesterday, his gaze at me is full of emotion. As if he is looking at a hero.

“What do you want me to do? Do you want me to teach them a lesson?”
that youngster has transformed into a werewolf but he’s waving its tail like a dog that said “come on, give me the ball” but I shake my head.

“We’re soldier, not the police.”

“Police?”
hearing that word, the youngster are curious. Ah, I need to explained it.

“maintaining security is the job for human. We will have them punished in accordance to the laws of Ryun city. What is the verdict?”

Then a human attendant that has been standing there replied in a hurry.
“Theft and robbery is subjected to do a forced labor as long as they need to repaid or compensate the damage. If the goods is not returned, it will be double the amount.”

“Compensate by earning it? Are they allowed to work in the field?”

“Field work?”

“yes, we have lots of things to do. After all the city population has been increased by around 260 since yesterday.”

needless to say that the 260 is from the inu race and the werewolves. First commanding them, searching for food, and now we have another project coming one after another.

“Some shop that is involved in the battle are undergoing repair so business can resume.”
“According to the inu race investigation the sewer under the walls are decrepit.”
“The Gurnee brothers had been complaining about the meat.”

now cleaning up has to be done one by one.

“Now, while the shop are under repair, they can stay in the inn and we will pay for the money.”
this might cost a bit but I will repay you one day Airia. For now please pay for it…

“It is dangerous if the sewer under the walls are leaved like that. Immediately send people to repair it and because we also are able to infiltrate from the sewer, increase the defense of it.”
even if we have two hundred inu race, they need to work in shift so I assigned three shift made up of sixty people each. This kind of job is tough.

“Increase the mission assignment for Gurnee brother but in return they will be paid in chicken as benefit. More work more food.”
ah, just noticed that I had no time to take breakfast as the noon approaching. I stretched while sitting down on the seat.

“Fuuuh…”

“Are you tired?”

at that moment I can hear a cute voice. When I look back in a hurry, there is a little girl floating in the air. She wears black cloak and a pointed hat. I fall down to my knee immediately on the floor and paid my respect.

“I have been waiting for Gomoruiroa general.”

“Just call me Mobi-chan.”

this person in front of me is the head of the devil army third division, 『the great sage Gomoruiroa』.
(Tl note: the third army has several commanders and one general. That’s the correct power standing right?)

she was inflating her cheeks unhappy like a child but still she is the devil army strongest magician. Even if she has a human appearance, she is the strongest demon in the third division. Also she is my magic teacher.

“I said you can call me Mobi-chan or even just call me teacher.”

“That is not polite but I’ll try.”

My teacher Gomoruiroa sighed but she smiled after that.

“Well, now we already take control of Ryun city.”

“It’s all thanks to teacher. By the way if teacher is coming, will your ‘Naoe’ troops coming?”

Teacher smiled again as I expected.

“Well my spear bone corps may look poor and pitiful but please allow two thousands of it to merge with the inu corps.”

“Yes teacher.”

Teacher specialty is 【Necromancy】. The skeleton soldiers she produces is able to move at will. If there are two thousands of skeleton spear men, it was even possible to face several thousands of human army. They also doesn’t need to sleep and eat. Teacher is sighing again.

“You didn’t think of something useless again right? Like skeleton do not need to eat rice so it’s easy to keep.”

“N-N-no.”

“If you even think of that, I’ll cut the heck out of you.”

of course, it was something she is free to say out of love and effort because she is the number one.

“Did you say something?”

“No teacher.”

But still, teacher is a magic master not an expert on tactics so my real pain isn’t still relieved.

“teacher, do you have any idea on what to do about our food? Do we able to hunt alongside human?”

“Well I don’t really like hunting. How about foraging?”

“I’m sure if we do that the best thing we can get is only insect.”

Teacher laughed ‘hohoho’ at that remark. I might even think that she is a human if not for her monstrous power. In one fingertip movement, she is able to resolve some problem. Like creating some settlements around Ryun city, it is finished in less than half a day. Well even is she is a human beings, she stayed in the demon lord army because we provide her the things she needed.

“Well, I couldn’t believe I have a disciple that prefer magic rather than close combat fighting.”
“excuse me.”

Teacher words makes me remember the first time I approached her. I can still remember it clearly even now.

“What are you saying? You want to be a magician? You are a werewolf!”

“I… I want to be stronger… I can’t do it on my own.”

“For what?”

“I want to protect everyone in my village. After that everyone of my race and everyone that needed my help.”

“I can see you’re being honest… alright, I like your intention. Let us see whether you have talents or not.”

“Thank you teacher.”

“But there is no giving up… do you understand?”

Teacher also seemed to remember the same thing as she showed me a wry smile.

“Although you have the ability to manipulate magical power even as a werewolf, it was too bad that you aren’t able to do necromancy.”

“after all I’m only a werewolf.”

The magic that I can use is only limited to the magic to help strengthen the body. It doesn’t work in any other way. In my previous life, I remember a job called 『Enchanter』. It was a hobby of mine and also some recovery magic can be used. Thanks to that I have some grasp of magic as a werewolf. Because werewolf itself is a fairly strong race, one day I hope to be the one with the best strength in the demon lord army. Well, but still I have a long way to go.

“By the way teacher, I didn’t know that you will come.”

when we are having a briefing at the demon lord castle before, I know that she was scheduled to be stationed in the castle. The second division and third division has an objective to capture a city at the same time and only the division commander is there to help. Then teacher is laughing responding to my question.
“It seemed like you needed some help aren’t you student? Your troops are lacking in number so it is my duty to help.”

“Yes teacher.”
still this amount of troops is still small compared to other deputy division commander that led thousands in scale. So I’ll be using this chance proudly.

“Also I have to praise you. The victim from yesterday battle is zero. You keep the number of casualties to the minimum too.”

of course it is because we have been planning it carefully.

“But still, yesterday rebellion from the were wolf corps was something unexpected.”

“Why is that teacher?”

“It’s because of your personality student.”
and then the great sage Gomoruiroa laughed while sitting on my shoulder.

“student, do you have someone to entrust public service?”

“Yes, there is Fern working at the gates and I also have her take some responsibility. You have met her before.”

“Ah, the girl that’s within your strike zone.”

“Eh, why did you say that?”

“I know that she is your favorites.”
teacher then smiling childishly and grinning.

“Well, now I’ll give you some face. We need to give your report to demon lord-sama.”

“Do I need to go?”

because report on mission details are usually delivered by adjutant. I wonder should a division commander like me go and said it myself. Teacher nods and said to me.

“I want to hear you tell it directly to the demon lord-sama. But of course I will come with you.”
teacher then cast a spell as if she was singing in a pretty voice. The next moment, my view is distorted.
