Chapter 6
The Battle of Volgog (2)
Fifth-tier?
Hope flickered across Johnson’s face.
“If it is a fifth-tier mage, can he wipe out all those damn gnats in the sky?”
“…A high-ranking mage and an aerial combat unit are different things. If we had air superiority, he could ascend directly and rain bombardment on the enemy’s encampment. But in the current situation, where we lack control of the skies—”

As the squad leader’s explanation dragged on, Johnson’s expression darkened in an instant.
“So in the end, it is just more ground troops?”

“At least it is a divisional-level reinforcement. There will be anti-air artillery within the division, so those gnats will not be able to fly in as freely as they have been.”
“So there are no aerial troops at all.”
“…Hm.”
The squad leader swallowed.

In truth, he had no way of knowing whether aerial troops would arrive or not.
Unlike the demon tribes, who specialized in magic, humans were far more adept with aura and physical combat. Aerial troops, which could only be operated through magic, were therefore an extremely high-grade asset for humans.
As such, even if aerial reinforcements were to be dispatched, it would be handled discreetly at a much higher level, beyond his authority.
Seeing the silent squad leader, Johnson’s anger flared even more.

“What we want is not anti-air artillery. What we want are combat aerial troops who can deal with those damned gnats that keep going BANG BANG over our heads day and night.”
“…Raising aerial combat troops takes a very long time. You know that.”

For a battle mage to become an aerial trooper, they needed to reach at least the level of a master even among second-tier mages.
It was not merely about flying. One needed enough mastery to move freely in the air without strain.
And even after becoming an aerial trooper, not everyone qualified as an aerial combatant.
Within aerial troops, there were various roles such as support, reconnaissance, bombing, and combat. Among them, bombers and combatants had significantly higher requirements.
Bombers demanded a higher overall magical tier than other aerial troops.
Combatants required exceptional maneuvering sense, instantaneous judgment, and the ability to cast multiple spells simultaneously.

As a result, bombers and combatants, especially combatants, took an extremely long time to train and were guaranteed high ranks.
Johnson slammed his spear into the ground.
“Damn it!”
THUD!
The spear sank deep into the earth.
Though faint, the aura within his body had reinforced his physique.

Fuming, he stormed off in search of another comrade.
The squad leader let out a sigh, pulled the spear out of the ground, and tossed it back to him.

Still seething, Johnson caught his spear and called out the name of the comrade who had endured the bombardment alongside him.
“Hey, Jim!”
Because the attack had been so sudden, no one knew which unit had taken cover in which trench.
Johnson scanned his surroundings, continuing to search for his companion.

“What is it? Something wrong?”
Several soldiers were gathered atop a collapsed trench.
Johnson peered into the trench over their shoulders.
“…Jim?”

His former comrade lay there, his limbs torn apart.
A soldier beside him shook his head.

“A bomb hit inside the trench. Just bad luck.”
“……”
Bad luck.
Just those two words.
Yes.
This place was exactly like that.

Johnson clenched his teeth.
Jim’s mutilated body overlapped with his own image in his mind.
The squad leader, who had approached at some point, shouted at the soldiers.
“Clear the trench! Enemy artillery magic bombardment will start soon. Move it, now!”
The soldiers who had been mourning moments ago began to disperse one by one.

“Thank you for the Southern Continent’s assistance.”
Marquis Volgog Wilford, the commander of the Volgog Front, extended a hand toward Duke Agenka.

With three stars on his shoulders, he shook the duke’s hand, and Duke Agenka immediately moved to the main topic.
“What is the situation on the front?”
“…Please come this way.”
Marquis Wilford guided Duke Agenka further inside.

A large table was spread with maps and operational pieces.
Tracing a line with his index finger, he spoke.
“According to our current assessment, the enemy forces pinned at the Volgog Front number approximately eighty thousand.”
“So roughly one corps has arrived.”

“That is correct. The area where the enemy is currently stationed is here, and our own position is here.”
The demon forces were to the south, and allied forces to the north.

Naturally so.
The enemy hailed from the Central Continent, and this was the Northern Continent.
The marquis continued his explanation.
“The current line of engagement is shaped like a parabola, but we are being pushed back.”
“Being pushed back? Then the troops on the flanks—”
“They are retreating.”
