My Reincarnation as a Chicken

The troll king had been stomping the ground furiously after he saw soldiers being flung into the air by the massive pillars of water that erupted from the ground. He wanted to know what was happening over there. What kind of strategy had the West come up with that caused his soldiers to run from the battle? He wanted to fight the person who came up with such a plan. Surely that person was strong.

But then he looked at the War monger. The war monger was just watching the events passively, almost as if he didn't care. This piqued the red troll's interest. If it were the normal Krull he would have gotten angry and charged over there to finish off the West. So… why? Why was he just standing there with no reaction?

Was he… scared? No. There was no way his liege would be scared of a simple chicken, right?

He slapped himself with both palms and shook his head. What was he thinking? If Krull could read minds he would have already been dead. Now he just needed to get ready for the moment Krull ordered him to go into the fight. With the way things were going, he was certain the War Monger would tell him to move in very soon.

Dulk let out a smoke filled sigh when he saw his soldiers flying in the air and falling to their deaths. Truly, what kind of humiliating situation had they ended up in? When the ogre tyrant had called them for a war, he immediately questioned the reason for it. Krull refused to tell him, however, he told them to bring only a tiny number of soldiers that they trusted.

Of course Dulk questioned his reasoning for this. If they were going to war wouldn't they need a bigger number? He asked the ogre king this, and his response was, "Did I say a war? I meant a massacre".

Naturally Dulk felt confident after hearing his master say that… so how did things end up like this? How were his men being flung into the air like toys? What kind of creature were they up against that Krull's army was suffering such huge blows. Of course, if Krull himself participated, the fight would be over quite easily, but this was just sad. He was certain Krull was angry. However, when he looked at the ogre, he was surprised by how calm it was. He wanted to ask why Krull wasn't reacting in anyway whatsoever.

It couldn't be. But what if. What if Krull had expected the army to receive such huge blow? If that was the case then there was nothing to be feared. He just needed to focus on how to get the chicken for his proposal.

The two kings had their own thoughts on the matter and how Krull was feeling at the moment. If he could put what he was feeling into words, he would say that he was angry. He was so pissed he wanted to charge into the battle and kill every single one of them and make them aware of what it meant to stand up to a tyrant, still, he couldn't. He remembered the words of his daughter the previous night and even though he would never admit it, he was shaken. Shaken to the point where he was making decisions he normally wouldn't. At first he believed it to be utter nonsense, even the West's supposed great army was nothing more than just a few hundred E rank and D rank monsters. He laughed at them at first, but now, his army was getting thrashed about. He knew that if he participated, it wouldn't even be a fight. His only problem would be the chicken. If the chicken had more power than what they were saying, then indeed, this battle would be a humiliating defeat for the ogre tyrant. Still, he wasn't going to back down because of a little set back.

He still had his trump cards in this battle. He glanced at his kings from the corner of eyes. To his left was the inquisitive but hardworking Dulk. To his right was the muscle-headed and violent Zod. They were beasts in their own respects, however if those two were brought together, who knows what kind of chaos they could wreak. It took a while, but after a bit, he sensed that the West had already sent in their king. That satyr. Derbyshire, was it? He had told them that the West was unable to bring the other king to their side and they might've failed with the other.

'Tsu… So they managed to get one king on their side? I shall make quick work of them. '

He thought.

"Zod!"

The troll looked at his master in his response.

"Dulk!"

The orc let out a smoke and glanced at the ogre.

"Show the West what it means to go against the East."

"Finally!"

Zod jumped cheerfully

"So you decided to end this quickly."

Dulk put his heavy axe over his shoulders.

Having received their orders, both of them ran towards the battlefield with haste. They couldn't show it in front of their master, but they didn't like the idea of their men being killed left right. If Zod liked that, then there would have been no reason to have united the tribes in the first place. And if Dulk didn't care, he wouldn't have stood up to all the races that threatened them before. To be very honest, the both didn't like Krull. They were only fear driven, but this battle was slowly alleviating this fear. If Krull lost here, that meant it was possible to beat him without another Tyrant. Still, they wouldn't intentionally lose here.

If this chicken could truly defeat Krull, they would need to do it at the East's best. Truly, these two were very alike to the point it sickened them. For now, they would keep their thoughts to themselves.

"Oi! Coward! You thinking about something?"

The troll asked the orc as they charged through the forest.

"Hmm… I want that chicken."

"What?"

"You know, that chicken that's causing this entire mess."

"Oh? I know how you feel, but won't that be Lord Krull's kill?"

The orc let out a smoke then stopped talking entirely.

"Coward? What are you planning?"

"Heads up."

They reached the massive field where the two armies clashed and were surprised by the sight. A huge spider was attacking the ogres and orcs. Even the ogres and orcs that managed to land blows on the spider only got to see their weapons bounce harmlessly off the spider's armor.

Dulk let out an annoyed sigh and Zod jumped in happiness.

"Yes! This is it! An actual battle! That's a king!? Hahaha! I'm going to fight it. Don't interrupt me."

"Trust me, you can have it all to yourself."

"Good!"

The troll kicked off towards the spider, letting out a war cry.

"Yaahooo!!!"

The spider king had been having a blast, knocking out ogres and orcs without even having to lift a finger, until,

BOOM!

The former spider king let out a loud pained yell.

"Oi! What's wrong with you? Servant!?"

'I've been hit!'

The spider complained. Groaning and moaning in pain.

"You've been hit? What the hell could they do to you? You're as strong as any king out there if not stronger!"

'Another… King! AH!'

The spider shook mightily and collapsed on its underside.

"Ah!? Is this how strong you are?"

The spider king could hear a very energetic and powerful voice call out. A red troll clothed in nothing but rags jumped on to the head of the spider. It was smaller than the other trolls, but she could tell that it was stronger than them. It was constantly releasing a powerful aura. She wondered who it was.

"Zod!"

"Zod!"

"Zod!"

'A named creature? What the hell!? That's why he was able to topple this big guy over. Ah… I stand no chance in a fight. I better hide myself.'

The spider made to run away and hide herself, but the troll noticed her before she could accomplish this.

"Oh you there! You are the king?"

'King? I don't know what you are talking about. This big guy here is the king. Not me.'

"Hahaha! You can't fool me. I can tell that you are stronger than this one!"

'Oh. You don't think that maybe we could talk this out?'

"Ha! For trolls it's strong rules the weak. If you want me to listen to you then beat me."

'Battle crazed morons are just the worst!'

She let out a sigh then yelled.

"Aaaaaggghhh!"

She shot acid to the troll's eyes, but it blocked with its arm. Quickly, she started to randomly fire magic attacks at the troll. [Water Magic: Water Ball], [Water Magic: Water spear], [Earth Magic: Stone Daggers], [Intermediary Water Magic: Water Canon], [Lightning Magic: Lightning bolt] and [Poison Magic: Poison Muffle]. The troll either withstood the attack or punched his way through it. Whatever it was, he was making a point of not moving from where he stood.

Noticing this, she quickly fired a web at its arm and moved around it quickly, trying to entrap it. The troll just smirked at her actions and let himself be wrapped up. He was going to just brute force his way out of this one as well.

"Hahaha! Cute trick, but I'll have to break it now!"

He said once she was done. However, the spider was confident in her webs.

'Sorry, but that's going to be impossible for you.'

"Ha! You're pretty confident. How-ever… I… UGH!"

The red troll tried to break free of the webs but it couldn't.

"Oi! What is this? What have you done?"

'Muhahaha! I told you that it would be impossible! My threads are just too strong for you!'

The truth was that, she was constantly adding mana to the threads which made them quite tough and hard to break apart. She wouldn't be able to keep it up for too long. She was hoping Hinotori would be able to finish fighting the ogre tyrant quickly and end the whole thing.

'Hurry up, you damned chicken!'

THUD!

She froze when she heard something land behind her. She could smell smoke and she couldn't even move, because she noticed that thing was producing power on the level of both her and troll. Another king.

"Oi. Insect king. Would you mind letting go of that idiot?"

A low and calm voice said.

"AH! Dulk! This is my fight! Don't interrupt! I'll soon break out of these webs then crush her."

"Shut it you idiot! I just had to make a choice between my own goals and following lord Krull. I chose lord Krull, so I'm not in a really good mood right now. So insect king. I will say this one last time. Let go of him."

His voice suggested danger and the spider looked up at the Orc that had a massive battle axe raised above its head.

"S-sorry, but I can-"

The orc brought down his axe before she could continue talking.

"Not the answer I was hoping for."

He looked at the hairy body beneath him and couldn't find the spider. He brought up his axe and there was a black gooey substance on it.

"You damned spider!"

Zod yelled and Dulk looked in the direction at which Zod's voice was coming from.

'Go to sleep you idiot! You'll get me killed.'

She then used her skill [Electro Web], to produce 20,000 volts of electricity.

"AAAHHH!"

He passed out.

'Like I was saying. Sorry, but I can't afford to let this guy loose. You guys will ended up killing me and that's a no-no. I don't plan on dying twice.'

She let out a loud screech. It was a call for her children to come to her aid, but the orc didn't know that.

A bee flew at its max speed towards the orc, who just cut it in half without giving it a second thought.

"I see. We are both alike in that respect then. Because I don't want to die too and the only way to do that is by winning this war."

He used his [King's aura], buffing up his abilities then moved towards the spider.

"[King's aura], huh?"

The spider also began to glow red.

Dulk was about to charge at the Spider king, but then, he started to hear something buzzing violently. No. It was a lot of things buzzing. He looked to his left and he could well over a hundred bees and beetles buzzing in the air and charging towards him.

"Heh, you want to fight the great me? You are being too bold, don't you think? Very well, I will have my children crush you. At least be grateful I even talked to you."

"Tch."
