Chapter 27
The battle tactics of an ordinary adventurer is similar to that of a hunter .
In the modern world, it would be similar to the special forces .
In a party with a small number of people to sneak up on a monster and overcome it with attack power .
If there aren't enough people to overcome a monster, they turn to traps and other strategies .
However, the shield and crossbow soldiers make up more than half the members of Kenkiba . They are expensive to maintain .
In both my world and this world, shields are thick wooden boards usually with metal around the edges and backed with leather, it is also standard to throw away a shield after battle .
If you block attacks with a shield it will become riddled with scratches and holes .
You can ask for a shield to be repaired, but you are better off using a new one . Otherwise, there is a larger possibility that it will break when blocking an attack .
This is why shields are less popular with adventurers .

Entirely metals shields are too heavy to use effectively . I have heard that in the military there are shield soldiers that use a shield with two hands . Though I have never actually seen them . Are they used when fighting Dragons?
Although crossbows are powerful weapons, they are expensive to manufacture . They are fragile and it is impossible to fire quickly and in succession . However, if you can arrange a number of them and keep them maintained properly, they are a force to be reckoned with . If you have a vanguard equipped with shields protecting them while they reload and if you have someone to break the enemies shields their combat prowess increases .
However, it is not cheap .
It is necessary to have warrior blacksmiths to carry spare shields and parts and repair crossbows and shields .

You can reduce the need to repair and replace shields and armour by having them blessed with defensive magic by a war monk . (TN: Can be monk or priest will leave as monk unless it is stated that they are actually priests . )
Though this way of fighting the Kenkiba corps completed many quests and racked up a lot of achievements .
The best way to fight an ogre is using traps .
When I was an adventurer I ricked my life fighting a two-meter-tall hob-goblin . After somehow defeating it I swore I would never fight one head on again .

However, the Kenkiba corps is equipped and trained to be able to crush any opponent from the front .
They have both talented people and a first-class combat doctrine .
I may end up releasing less chapters because I am currently in the middle of picking up another novel to translate that I am interested in . I will not drop this series but there may be 1 or 2 fewer releases each week depending on how busy I am .
