A few hours later, Count Atlaus’s army finally arrived at Ozd. Compared to Caim, they’d arrived pretty late, but considering how tired their horses looked, they must have been traveling as fast as they could.

“Hey there. Took your time, huh?” Caim greeted them.

“What’s happened? Where are the wyverns?!”

“Over there. I killed them.” Caim pointed at the corpses lying a little ways away. Then he looked around the ruined town and snorted. “Unfortunately, the wyverns rampaged through the whole town. It was already like this when I arrived.”

“Those damn monsters!” The soldier bit his lower lip and clenched his fist in indignation.

Caim shrugged and pointed at a mountain of debris. “You can be angry all you want, but you should start helping out. There’s still a lot of people buried under the rubble.”

“Yeah, you’re right... Let’s help, everyone!”

“Yes!” the other soldiers replied in unison, and they went to join the rescue work.

Thanks to their aid, most of the buried people were saved before night fell. From what they could gather, more than half of the inhabitants had already evacuated to another town, but the buildings were so damaged that rebuilding would take a long time, even once they’d have exterminated all the wyverns.

“Damn it... He’s dead...”

“Damn you, wyverns...!”

Unfortunately, not everyone who was buried had survived. Many townsfolk had been crushed under the debris, and their corpses were now laid on the road. Coupled with those who had been eaten by the monsters, the death toll was quite high.

“I killed three wyverns. How many are left?” Caim asked one of the townspeople assisting the rescue effort.

“I don’t know the total number, but there were seven or eight that attacked us.”

“I see...” As Caim had expected, despite numbering around a hundred overall, the wyverns mainly moved in smaller groups—sometimes even alone, like the one that had chased after the merchant carriage. It was going to be a pain to go around the entire county searching for them all.

From my battles, I know I could easily fight ten or twenty at once, no problem. But if they’re all scattered around, there’s a limit to what I can do by myself.

“Say, how many people do you need to defeat a single wyvern?” Caim decided that thinking about it to himself wasn’t useful and just asked the soldiers directly.

An older man who appeared to be the captain pondered for a moment, then answered, “I think we would need ten soldiers to kill one.”

“Ten? That’s the best you can do?”

“Please, don’t ask for the impossible. A single wyvern is still a Count-class monster—even veteran adventurers need to form a party to defeat one. Few people can do it alone.”

“I can. Just killed three of them, actually,” Caim retorted.

“...Point taken. Anyway, we could likely do better if we had better weapons.” The knights’ leader grimaced, then shook his head regretfully. “If we had weapons that were effective against wyverns—or dragons—we could defeat them with only a few soldiers. Unfortunately, dragon-killing magic items are few and rarely appear on the market.
