Chapter 126: Monster Wave (2)
It had been a few hours since I started collecting deer with <Monster Taming>.
It was not an easy task to gather deer.
The animals around ran away as soon as they heard the sound of the deer’s hooves.
But I was a man of stubbornness and guts.
For the sake of my dream of a deer horde, I could find deer without much difficulty.
I opened my eyes wide and searched for deer nearby for my goal.
It was not a simple thing to tame a fleeing deer and join it with other deer.
-You used <Monster Taming>.
-You used <Monster Taming>.
-You used <Monster Taming>.
-You used <Monster Taming>.
After wandering around for hours looking for deer, I finally made the deer horde I had been longing for.
A horde of terrifying deer that flashed red eyes and breathed out steam.
I had made a fearsome unit that only had cavalry.
I couldn’t help but be moved by the sight of the deer that emitted a dreadful aura.
Since it was the result of wasting hours of time, I had a lot of affection for the deer horde.
“Why do they look so cool when they’re gathered?”
The sight of the proud deer standing with their horns in front was magnificent.
They wouldn’t look awkward even if they got up and punched with their hooves.
When I moved the marker that tied them up slightly forward, the tamed deer moved their feet forward gracefully.

The sound of their heavy footsteps echoed as they moved in sync.
I looked at the deer rolling forward and expressed my short admiration.
“It feels like I’m a commander of the Demon King’s army.”
They were more like monsters than deer.
When I gathered and moved monsters like this, it felt like I was a commander of the Demon King’s army that would appear in novels.
Usually, the Demon King’s army didn’t collect monsters that were so ferocious.
I usually scoffed at stories about evil gods and such, but today I felt like becoming a commander of the Demon King’s army.
-Grrrrrrrrr.
-Grrrrr.
As they looked at the guidance marker and breathed out together, I decided to move the marker with determination.
I wanted to see the power of the deer horde that I had worked hard to collect.
As I pulled the guidance marker, all the deer started running at once, led by the first one I tamed.
A huge dust cloud rose as they ran forward together.
Kugugugugung—!
The earth shook and a loud noise came out of the speaker every time the deer stepped on it.
It was a sound that made my chest swell with pride.
I moved the marker on my finger back and forth to guide the direction of the charging deer.
-Grrrrrr!
Every time the deer’s hooves tore up the ground, the trampled place became barren.
The flowers that bloomed brightly were broken and rolled on the floor, and the lush grasses flattened and merged with the ground.
They affected the terrain just by moving in a group.
I felt a different kind of fun from when I tore up the map with magic, as I saw the ground change every time I moved my finger.
It felt like I was painting over the natural scenery with the guidance marker.
“Ah... This is why I raise deer.”
I led the deer horde through the golden field, and they trampled it with their hooves.
Nothing remained intact where the deer went.
Sometimes, beasts blocked the deer’s path, but they were eliminated by their sharp horns.
Nothing could stop the deer that ran in a group with enhanced power.
That was true even for predators that preyed on deer.
The deer’s eyes that glowed red did not discriminate.
-(Drinking water)
-Grrrrr!
-Craaaash!
The deer showed no mercy to the wolf pack that was drinking water.
The wolves were flung into the air by the deer’s horns.
Did Genghis Khan feel like this when he roamed the plains with his men?
I tried to control the rampaging deer delicately, and removed all the obstacles around them without mercy.
Clank.
The guard unit raised their spears and stopped the soldier who was running urgently.
The soldier stopped in front of the guard unit that had a fierce aura.
He caught his breath and looked at the captain.
“Huff, huff...”
“What happened? Why did you come back alone?”
“It’s a disaster, huff... a disaster, sir!”
“Explain in detail. What happened to the other guards?”
“That’s, that’s...”
The soldier who was reporting trembled as the captain interrogated him.
The soldier who had turned pale looked behind him periodically, as if he was terrified.
The captain reached out his hand to the soldier’s shoulder and calmed him down.
The soldier’s eyes that met the captain’s were bloodshot.
The captain gripped the soldier’s shoulder firmly and asked him.
“I’ll ask you again. Why did you come back alone? And what happened to the ten-man captain and the other guards?”
“They were all killed by them! I had no choice but to run away!”
Ouch.
The captain’s hand that held the soldier’s shoulder tightened.
The captain pressed his forehead against the soldier’s and glared at him.
The soldier’s face became even whiter under the captain’s fierce gaze.
“Make yourself clear! Who killed them all?”
“Deer! Watch out for deer!”
“Deer? What are you talking about?”
“Deer are coming!”
He suddenly warned them to be careful of deer.
It was an incomprehensible story for the captain.
What did he mean by deer coming?
They could easily catch a deer or two if they stuck together as a ten-man unit.
That’s what he thought as he was about to question the soldier again.
“What do you mean by deer, ah...”
He saw a huge herd of deer coming from afar and stopped talking.
Koo-goo-goo-goo-gung!
From the forest far away, deer were running with smoke rising behind them.
They had sharp horns on their heads and glowing eyes.
They looked like demons from hell.
As he saw the deer running with a loud noise, he quickly threw the soldier inside.
And he gave an order to the guards who were guarding the gate.
“Deer are coming! Close the gate!”
“Close the gate!”
It was obvious what would happen if the deer came into the city.
The guards who heard the captain’s order rushed to the gate and started to close it.
Those who were being checked also ran inside, but the guards had no time to stop them.
Screech.
The heavy gate moved and made a loud friction sound.
The guards who closed the gate quickly locked it with a bolt.
Barely in time to close the gate, one of the guards who was on duty on the wall shouted in a loud voice.
“Deer are coming!”
Right after his warning voice ended.
There were successive impacts on the closed gate.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
A pile of deer rammed into it and made a loud noise.
The captain looked at the gate that was shaking from being hit by deer and felt a chill on his back.
Despite being made sturdy, the gate was shaken by the deer’s collision.
If this continued, the gate might collapse because of the deer.
He looked at his subordinate next to him and gave an order.
He had to call those who he needed most at this moment here.
“It’s an emergency! Report to the lord and the guard commander immediately!”
“What should I report?”
“A monster wave has occurred!”
