#929 The Farm Army Joins the Fray

Thus...

For reasons unknown, we, the farm members, find ourselves showcasing our dungeon-diving skills to a group of adventurers.

Have we not had enough field trip-y chapters?

The observing adventurers are bewildered and shaken by the turn of events.

“More spectating...?”

“No, no, if we get to see those farm residents in action, it’s rather fortunate...!”

“It’s a golden opportunity to gauge the might of the legendary farm’s forces!”

Their curiosity is quite piqued.

We can’t let them down, so we decided to put on an appropriate show.

And what do you know, out come the usual suspects: the orc and goblin army.

“Monsters?! But why?!”

“Aren’t monsters supposed to defend the dungeon? What’s the point in using them to conquer it?”

...They voice their doubts like so.

But they clearly don’t get it yet.

The terror our farm’s orcs and goblins could unleash!

“Plus, orcs and goblins are humanoid monsters, right? Aren’t they weak enough to be controlled with magic? Are you planning to use them as disposable pawns to clear the way?”

Th-The nerve!

Our orcs and goblins are valuable allies, not pawns! Please retract that remark!!!

As I was shaking with rage...

“...It is all right, My Lord.”

Oh, Orkubo?!

You’re participating this time?! Is your honeymoon phase with Zoth Syra over?

“We cannot be absent when showing off the farm’s strength! Let us demonstrate the true terror of our farm with our own hands!”

Gobukichi, too?!

To have both main attractions of our farm’s forces ready to go promises a spectacular show!!!

“Wha-?! What’s with that orc?! He exudes a commanding presence even from afar!”

“That goblin’s gaze is as sharp as a hawk’s! They’re not your average monsters at all!!!”

The seasoned adventurers can tell something is off just by their vibes. Impressive.

Orkubo and Gobukichi, each with their leader’s charisma, rally their troops!

“My fellow orcs! Today is a grand opportunity to showcase Our Lord’s greatness!”

“Never forget, our achievements directly contribute to Our Lord’s dignity! Always kill and plunder with discipline!”

Their orc and goblin brigade respond with cheers.

It’s so loud that it’s intimidating to those around.

“...Um, are humanoid monsters always this spirited?”

“They’re not supposed to be this rowdy if they lack human-like consciousness...!”

But our orcs and goblins are indeed spirited and full of vigor, which might puzzle anyone watching.

And so, with high spirits, they march into the dungeon.

Immediately, monsters appear.

They swarm in as if to give a rough welcome.

Some have wings, fangs, and tongues lolling out...

Probably not the best choice to serve on the table, huh?

“This calls for a simple dispersal... Charge, Power Blazer!!!”

With a swing of Orkubo’s axe, a torrent of fighting spirit bursts forth like a tsunami, spreading far and wide.

The monsters caught in this wave of spirit are instantly shattered to pieces.

But, of course, not all were dispatched with a single blow.

The few monsters that slipped through, still brimming with ferocity, lunge at them...

“Shadow Blade...!”

This time, Gobkichi, wielding a scythe...

...slices all the monsters to pieces in the blink of an eye!

His movement is only perceivable after it is all over.

A supremely swift attack that doesn’t even allow light to catch up. That is Gobkichi’s specialty.

Orkubo, with strength, and Gobukichi, with speed.

Though I thought they might be too lovesick from their recent weddings to perform, they proved to be as formidable as ever when it mattered.

“After such a long break, both Sir Orkubo and Sir Gobukichi are really fired up.”

“But when those two get serious, there’s hardly any room for us to shine.”

The other orcs and goblins feel a bit redundant with their main stars stealing the show.

As for the spectating adventurers...

“Orcs and goblins are that strong...?!

“If they’re already this powerful, they’d easily overpower any ordinary dungeon!”

“It’s a complete rout.”

They’re bewildered beyond words.

While Orkubo and Gobukichi are still available to play their part, let’s switch things up to avoid monotony and keep things fresh.

“Time for a substitution! Stepping up next are Letasreit and Horkosfon, the combat duo!”

These two are also among the pride of our farm’s fighters.

Though it makes one wonder when exactly they turned into fighters, deploying them almost guarantees a terrifying victory.

“Behold, the grand entrance! Witness the astounding power born from beans!” 

“Bean power at ten million, fermented to another ten million, giving you a total of twenty million power in natto.”

Despite being rumored as the farm’s top combatants, their actions are primarily motivated by beans alone, making them sporadic and often bewildering, proving more troublesome to handle than Orkubo or Gobukichi.

Yet, they never miss these festival events.

“This is all in the name of spreading the marvelous benefits of beans! Eat beans, and grow stronger! Let’s spread the word!”

“Roger that, Letasreit”’

These two are always buzzing with excitement at the mention of beans.

The adventurers witnessing this could only wonder.

“What’s with those women...?!”

“Pretty and cute, sure, but after those brawny orcs and goblins, it’s quite the anticlimax...!”

“What could those ladies possibly do...?!” 

“Wait, is that Princess Letasreit?”

Ooookayyyy, to those who’ve stumbled upon that truth, shall we erase your memory?

Nonetheless, they march on at their own pace, soon encountering the monsters of the next layer, who surge towards them in droves.

“All right! Bean formation, Holly!”

“Roger that, Letasreit.”

At this point, the fact that those two charged into a horde of monsters without any hint of worry doesn’t even seem strange anymore.

Letasreit charges ahead, diving into the swarm.

“UHYAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

Many must have been shocked and despaired, seeing her recklessly enter the mass of monsters and face what seems like a certain death.

But Letasreit is not one to kick the bucket so easily.

“Bean God Fist Secret Technique! Demons Out, Meteor Burst!!!”

Looks like shouting something akin to a technique name has caused something to be flung skyward from the midst of a monster horde...

Oh, it’s the monsters themselves.

Thrown together as a group.

They’re being launched into the air one after another in quick succession.

Speaking of order, the speed is so ferocious it’s practically a machine gun barrage into the sky, with several monsters being launched every second.

That must be Letasreit hurling the monsters with incredible force.

Her newfound superhuman strength makes it look effortless.

But why would she opt for such aerial launches?

Perhaps her strategy is to hurl them high into the sky and then let gravity do its work, aiming for a fatal crash upon their descent.

However, that pair is not one to rely on such straightforward tactics.

“You’re up, Holly!”

“Roger that, Letasreit.”

Awaiting above is the angel Holcosfon.

She’s targeting the airborne, immobilized monsters with the basic armament, the Mana Cannon.

“High Mat Mana Cannon Full Burst.”

So this is Letarsreit and Horkosfon’s killer move?!

Letasreit would toss the enemy into the air, leaving them defenseless against Horkosfon’s devastating Mana Cannon.

And with Horkosfon’s beam cannon equipped with infinite tracking, they could take out countless numbers at once!

Once Letasret targets you, being thrown is inevitable, and being shot down is a certainty.

What a terrifying combo move!
