Duke Franz turned his head toward the source of the sound, only to see hundreds of humans and dwarves, wielding various weapons, charging toward Green Valley Town.
At the forefront was a paladin clad in armor, wielding a Silver Sword, emitting a faint golden radiance, conspicuous in the dark, rainy night.

Duke Franz had some impression of Adrian. In his eyes, the child of his comrade was a paladin with decent talent, but never exuded such a presence as now.
Even from several hundred meters away, the reinforcements raised their rifles.
With a "bang!" gunfire screamed, piercing the sky, as a row of muzzles erupted with fire, emanating the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke.
Bullets sliced through the rain screen, piercing the scales and the flesh of the Dragon Vein Monsters, making them wail miserably as they fell from the sky.
