Reborn as a Werewolf Ancestor Chapter 53: Soldier Otium
Dawn, Hilltop Fort.
The gentle morning glow is reflected in the castle, and also on the faces of soldiers standing guard at the battlements.
Otium is the soldier’s name, which is taken from a kind of wheat in his hometown.
On the day he was born, the wheat field at home happened to be harvesting, so his parents gave him such a name.
has no special meaning, just a common name that can be seen everywhere, but Otium himself is proud of it.
Because he thinks he can live a different life like the wheat in his name, tall and upright.
Yes, Otium doesn’t want to live the life of a farmer like his parents.
, who had a whimsical idea since he was a child, set a goal for himself. That is to leave the village as an adult and march to the outside world. He wants to see a wider world and experience more interesting things.
However, this goal was quickly broken by reality.
After harvesting the wheat fields, he occasionally met the village head. The young people always have an infinite desire to talk, so he told the other party about this.
The head of the village regretfully warned Otim that if he wants to travel, he needs to go to the text, which is an identity document that symbolizes the citizens of the empire.
With it, it is possible to pass through the levels of each city, and even the castle, without being rejected outside the city.
The application for this type of document is very simple. You only need to file with the territory officials and then hand in a certain amount of Cairos silver coins.
But the village chief knows that Otium’s family has a large population and the wheat fields harvested every year are barely enough to support the family. Where can there be money for Otium to buy Duwen?
Otim is not discouraged, and he plans to find another way to get money.
At this time, it happened that Catherine was recruiting new soldiers in the village. After hearing that the soldiers' monthly salary could be 20 Marion copper coins.
Otium quickly stepped forward to sign up with Catherine, joined the army, and became a recruit under the Regit leader.
Otium plans to leave the army when he saves enough money, leave the army, do a good job, travel abroad, and travel around the world.
However, dreams are often not so easy to achieve.
Before he was enlisted in the army, a major event happened when the human kingdom of Dylan officially declared war on the orc empire.
The Regit leader where he was in, also followed Baron Kane, and went to the Cape Fort to be stationed together.
During the first few days of stationing, everything was so calm.
Otium heard that the veteran who was with him said that the orcs would not attack southward so easily, and the stationing this time was just in case.
But as a letter arrived, things started to change.
That morning, another noble lord ordered the letter to be delivered to Lord Kane. Observing the keen Otium, he soon discovered that Lord Kane's face became more serious after reading the letter. I got up, as if something big was about to happen.
also seemed to confirm Otim’s conjecture, and within a few days, the orc army attacked from the south.
When Otim was shaking and holding the bow and arrow in his hand, he realized that he was also afraid.
Facing the aggressive army of orcs, Otium realized at this moment that this is not the same thing as hunting in the forest. This is war. If you are not careful, you will die here.
Fortunately, the patrol leader discovered this situation. He also came from a recruit, and he knew what Otim was thinking at the moment.
So the captain of the patrol immediately gave Otim an order to call Lord Kane over to ease his nervousness.
ran all the way, Otium kept exhaling and inhaling, trying to calm his heart.
But when I saw Lord Kane, my heart, which was still unable to calm down, miraculously calmed down.
Staying beside Lord Kane, Otium realized that he felt at ease.
also under the heroic leadership of Kane, everyone repelled the first batch of orcs' siege troops.
Although there were several casualties of soldiers in the middle of the journey, in the face of such unequal forces on both sides, this casualty is considered good.
Looking ahead, Cairne, Catherine, Marcus and other extraordinary, extraordinary battles with the orcs, Otium's eyes are full of worship.
At the same time, his inner goal has also changed a bit. Otium no longer lists traveling around the world as his primary goal, but seeks to become an extraordinary person.
But before everyone was celebrating the victory of the battle, a big hole was smashed in the city gate below, and the hateful orc commander rushed into the castle with a large army.
Once again, Lord Kane took up the heavy task alone, and fought with the sauridad.
even hesitate to change into the appearance of an orc to block the opponent's offensive.
Otim looked at Kane, who had turned into a werewolf, and there was no panic in his eyes, because he knew that if it weren't for an adult blocking him, he and others might have died here.
He wanted to step forward to share a little pressure for Lord Kane, but he understood that there was no room for ordinary people like him to intervene in the war between the extraordinary.
Otium hates why he is not extraordinary and cannot help Lord Kane.
In this fierce emotion, the bow and arrow he shot at the orcs became extremely accurate, and each shot could solve an orc soldier.
The situation on the battlefield changes every minute, and even Otim did not expect that Master Sitz, who had just ran to support, would be bombarded with lightning by the despicable lizard.
Looking at Master Sitz, with a scorched appearance, Otim's eyes were very worried.
He still remembers the hunt in the forest, Master Sitz used a fireball to rescue them who were trapped by a pack of wolves.
And now the life of this great mage is dying.
A burst of laughter interrupted Otium's memory. He looked up and saw that the previously energetic Lizard had already been beaten by Lord Kane to linger.
But I don’t know why, this guy now seems to be mad, laughing constantly, the mad laughter reverberates throughout the battlefield, and the dark clouds above suddenly become dense.
A miracle that Otium saw for the first time in his life ~IndoMTL.com~ appeared in front of him.
That is a behemoth of thunder that cannot be described in words, it attacked the entire castle from the air with a murderous aura.
Otim heard the madness of the saurian, and he wanted everyone to bury him.
At the critical moment, Lord Kane stepped forward again, he threw the Lizardman into the sky and reunited with the giant beast.
Then, Lord Kane actually used his physical body to block the thunder behemoth for everyone.
Both humans and orcs stopped to fight on the battlefield. They looked at the tiny figure in the sky compared to Thunder in amazement, and it was hard to imagine that he had the courage to fight against it.
There were tears in Otium’s eyes. He knelt on the ground, praying for the first time that the God of Wisdom would bless Kane.
seemed to be guided by him, and more and more soldiers knelt on the ground, praying to the gods.
Maybe their prayers worked. After the dark night passed, before dawn, Lord Kane swallowed all the thunder and walked out of the pit safely.
Joy came out of Otium's heart. He happily embraced the soldiers around him, not only celebrating the rest of his life, but also excited for Lord Kane to be safe and sound.
Since then, Lord Kane has become the object of Otim's adoration, and he wants to be the same extraordinary person as the other party.
..........
"Hey! Otium."
The morning sun has risen, Otium’s memories have ended, and the voice of veteran Jackson came from a distance.
Otim knew that the other party had come to hand over with him, and it was time to get off work, and I would be able to sleep well later.
The past few days have been really calm, it seems that the orcs are not planning to attack again.
