"Tch, it seems like today is still their lucky day," Arsent grumbled in frustration.From everyone's weary eyes, it was apparent the sunlight had grown dim. Slowly, they watched as the once yellow land was swallowed by the darkness of the night."Retreat!" shouted a man as a natural alarm for all the troops to halt their attack.The crowd of people who had been fighting for victory began to withdraw in search of warmth amidst their exhaustion.The exhausting day had come to an end, leaving behind a lingering sense of pressure that had drained their spirits.The Gelizur forces couldn't believe they had managed to withstand the enemy's brutal assault today, but the cost had been too high. Many officers and soldiers had lost their lives, and their mobility would be drastically reduced for the battle tomorrow.Now, the surviving war officers found themselves in a state of confusion, within the confines of a spread-out map.Their faces continuously radiated an air of difficulty, for they k
It seemed that Garlan's earlier words still left Gundra confused. The man continued to gaze at the map, his fingers softly touching his chin. He was aware the other two officers were watching, waiting for the best decision to be made."General Edulis, what do you think about this?" Gundra asked, his eyes filled with doubt.Edulis raised his eyebrows momentarily when his name was mentioned. He bowed his head for less than 2 seconds before turning his gaze back to Garlan."I don't mind if my troops change positions. To be honest, facing the enemy in the main position isn't advantageous for this! But if victory must be achieved, then I'll do it..."The atmosphere in the room changed slightly; his statement indicated this plan discussed by Garlan would proceed as planned.Ceiba gave a sharp look at Garlan, who appeared calm. "Does he think he's already won in this matter? The position he's taken is full of danger, so why is he willing to take such a risk?""Hah..." Gundra exhaled slowly
Troops with their large shields had formed a barricade; they were not ordinary troops. The body of a single warrior was enough to break a grown man's bone, and they were prepared for a defensive mode.In accordance with Gundra's request, the first defensive position is protected by high-strength warriors.They were those warriors, and in an instant, their bodies were engulfed in the turmoil of a fierce clash.Thud...Their thunderous voices sent dust flying, obscuring vision. All that could be heard were the clashing and shouting of the battling warriors."I suspected as much; they must have prepared unpredictable abilities! But, are they sure today we won't charge straight into the main position?" Velix smirked as he looked at Gundra's location, his troops swarming like ants protecting their queen.Tings...The clinking sound that distorted the formation disrupted their concentration, and those around wondered what was happening.The supposedly unbeatable formation could be penetrate
"Is that so?" Arsent replied."Uh... does he understand what the old man said?" Badius muttered to himself.For several seconds, they still hadn't found any continuation in Arsent's demeanor.Everyone waited to see what this man would do in handling the situation."All right..." Arsent finally spoke up, and everyone looked at him with hope. "We will defeat the enemy without having to accept a much worse defeat..."That's how his words echoed in today's battlefield, continuing with full force before their eyes.Competing abilities to win the battle. They are tireless. All they hoped for was the desired victory.In the Gelizur troop formation, it appeared that everything was normal from a distance. However, in this battle, many of them had already shed gallons of sweat.Everyone was soiled with sweat to the point where red blood stained their bodies, the ground, and even the unpleasant air."Hehehe... whatever happens today, nothing will change! You will all still lose to me!" Moringa c
The sweet choice was nonexistent; in the current position, it was nothing but an unwavering struggle."Indeed, even though I try to ward off the worst possible outcome, there's no place for me to breathe a sigh of relief..."The presence of the Dapion forces had a significant impact; those present immediately wavered due to the onslaught of these troops.Ceiba couldn't stop thinking about how to defend and attack the enemy in front of him."Hahahaha... entertaining me would be better than this..."Maneus's cavalry had cleared a straight path consisting of the bodies of warriors, so the spectators couldn't do much.The absence of soldiers behind Maneus was proof of his ferocity."Stay prepared, we must defeat the enemy! Don't let them win this battle!"Maneus turned his face toward the source of the voice, and from a distance, Ceiba was busy boosting the morale of the soldiers."It seems my rival is there! I'll behead him for victory..."Maneus approached Ceiba at high speed.The clash
Maneus had instilled a thousand fears in the soldiers. Everyone had forgotten this was a battlefield."General, we're here to ensure your safety! Tomorrow or whenever, if we all perish, you will be able to avenge us! But if you die here, we won't be able to avenge you..."That thought gave Ceiba a different perspective, and he swallowed his frustration.He couldn't turn his face away from this. The trembling in his hands, which seemed to keep growing, had filled his body with desire."W-Why are you all doing this? I am the general here, and you shouldn't feel responsible for this!"Crash...This moment was incredibly dramatic. A sharp blade struck that soldier's body, and his blood rained down like a downpour in the scorching sun.Those present couldn't say much; they were all immersed in a chasm of reality."What is this? Why have you been talking like fools all this time? Are you intentionally trying to make me feel irritated like this?"Ceiba wanted to be angry about this, but he c
The abnormal dust waves, they could hear the sound of the waves crashing and rumbling.From a distance, those who were watching were given an unexpected surprise; it turned out that the calamity-bringing forces belonged to Dapion's formidable army."Hehh... impressive indeed. I didn't expect Lord Dapion to mobilize his troops this far! Even General Arsent seems to have no interest here!" Badius always played with the fan in his hand, making calculations as accurately as possible.Everyone referred to Arsent's authority as the highest commander in this situation, yet he seemed powerless to act.Observing Dapion's actions provided a subtle commentary on Arsent's position. However, he would not consider it a wrong move."Hehehehee... It's still too early. Victory is not yet certain for me or this kingdom!" Dapion seemed to deny everything that was happening. His habit of downplaying situations had never changed from the past to the present.To him, warfare was nothing more than pawns on
Filled with confidence, Velix approached Garlan, a sense of excitement coursing through his entire body.It wouldn't be long now; he just needed a few more steps to reach Garlan's throat.Ting..."That was quick..."Velix's eyes didn't notice Garlan's sword as his movements seemed to blend with the air around him.In a loud clash, his body was pushed back. Even with his previous full strength, Velix couldn't match Garlan.Reval glanced towards Garlan, realizing something from the previous clash. Garlan's demeanor was far from usual."Leader Garlan, is he under the influence of something?"The last time Garlan was this serious was over five months ago during a fierce battle that risked the lives of all the soldiers involved. Garlan had to take a serious stance to ensure the safety of the soldiers under his command.But this situation felt different from before. The troops were still ready to fight, their spirits high. There was actually no strong reason for Garlan to act so seriously,
