Extra 20: A certain day at Asora 4

Reigokai: Hey guys!

Just a heads up that this is a double chapter release so you don’t accidentally miss the other one ;D

Btw, left the milf typo there cause I thought it was a delicious mistake.

Enjoy the chapter!

Winged-kin.

If you had to categorize them as mamonos or demi-humans, they would be demi-humans.

If Gorgons are mamonos close to being hyumans, the winged-kin would be hyumans close to being mamonos.

It is a quite strong race that has mastered the air superiority and utilizes both attack and defense expertly. This power is obviously also shown in Asora, and they are able to obtain pretty decent results in the mixed races training.

The Winged-kin evaluate themselves as being unable to match the Orcs and Lizards, but in reality, in terms of getting used to the equipment the Elder Dwarfs made and the training drills of Asora, in other words, taking advantage of the strong parts of the previous residents of Asora, you could say they are working pretty well.

The Lizards and Orcs are feeling the reliableness of their new comrades that rule the skies and felt the need of more training.

In other words, they were evaluated pretty highly.

…There’s just one thing; excluding the ruler of Asora, Misumi Makoto.

“…How was today?”

“The first group was one minute, sir!”

“It hasn’t changed much since last time…”

While organizing the results of the training that day, one of the Winged-kin leaders knitted his eyebrows.

There’s a variety of races in Asora, but they respect and coexist with each other.

The strong and weak get their jobs and put efforts in the management of the central land and there’s also the pioneering of new land.

The Winged-kin have high ability in business, and the document work that the Highland Orcs were basically monopolizing, was now being done together with them.

With views to the future, they are thinking of sending people to the armed forces and the pioneering. At the same time, there was talk about them working together with the Gorgons on animals centered mostly in pasturage.

Their numbers are high, so they are rookies that others hold high expectations for.

But there’s one area that’s not going well for the Winged-kin.

The joining to the armed force and pioneering has been postponed for the future and their cooperation to dangerous places as well.

Whether one can participate in these kind of things or not is normally decided by Makoto, and his followers, Tomoe and Shiki, would further that process by deciding on the formation of the groups.

And so, they are stuck at the Makoto part.

It is a matter that doesn’t proceed at all without the permission of Makoto.

“Shona-sama has received talk from Shiki-sama regarding the breeding of animals so, wouldn’t Waka-sama know of our battle prowess?”

One of the winged-kin at the meeting room made a complicated expression as he gives his opinion to the Patriarch.

“Yeah, Shiki-sama did say something to that effect. But the decision was apparently affected heavily by the advantage that we can fly. He probably hasn’t acknowledged us in terms of pure battle prowess.” (Patriarch)

“We have never lost in such a clean manner before after all.”

A man older than the Patriarch showed a bitter smile.

Being at a higher altitude from your opponent creates an overwhelming advantage.

There’s the option of attacking in the sky, and there’s also tactics for attack and defense in the air in this world as well.

The Winged-kin faced Makoto’s training with the same tactic as the one they used on the other mock battles with the other races, but the result was an utter defeat.

In less than three minutes, the elites of the Winged-kins were all shot down and were all send back.

The bow and the fire and water magic are Makoto’s weapons.

The days where Makoto uses only magic to instant wipe the units that have gone out separately continued.

It was the source of the Patriarch’s headache.

“To think we would be shot down by a bow and magic.”

“Until now, those kind of people would all fall prey to us though.”

Sighs were being let out here and there.

The advantage of the Winged-kin is that they can fly in the sky, however, their weak point is also the sky.

The sky normally doesn’t have any obstructions. It is easy to target with ranged weapons and magic.

That’s why they dealt with that weak point immediately.

They gained high understanding of the wind element and increased their resistances. The number one most suited sniping spell towards the sky and viceversa are the wind element spells, and they had thoroughly mastered it.

Also, in order to get away from the spells and arrows, they increased their altitude even more and trained their elites.

Thinking about it normally, having high wind element strength is superior to having anti-air attacks against flying opponents, so it meant that the Winged-kin could one-sidedly attack the other party.

From an altitude that’s outside the range of the opponent, they can shoot with attacks that are within their range after all.

The enhanced arrows would lose strength the higher the distance, and in most cases, even the wind barrier of the normal soldiers of the Winged-kin could deflect them.

The establishment of this style was also connected to the social standing based on the wing colors.

The white winged ones that can fly at high speed and at high altitudes are called *Alkators*. Them having a high social standing might have been an inevitability. Their physical strength itself isn’t that high, but in terms of magic power, they were top class as well. They are treated as born elites.

There’s also the black winged ones known as *Pages*. They are not suited for high speed flying, but they can bring out high altitudes. Their flying ability in battle is low, but they possess strong physical strength and their magic power is comparable to that of the Alkators.

Because they divided the roles and authority by fighting prowess in order to reduce the casualties, it brought the current social structure they have.

They live at the top part of cliffs, so there was practically no need to do defensive battles which most likely served as a heavy influential factor as well.
