2024-10-29 19:42:56"Wh-What? No!" cried Ian soldier, trying to escape from Tobias soldier's hold.
"Let us go! We did it under orders from him." The soldier with his armor stripped off pointed at Ian, saying plainly that the deaths of the five soldiers were on orders from the nobleman.
Not only him but the other six also said the same thing. They didn't hesitate to blame Ian for the murderous tragedy, even though Tobias had already guaranteed that Ian wouldn't meet his death today.
Tobias walked up to the seven soldiers, raising his hand to shoulder height in a gesture to stop walking. The soldiers were drawn to Tobias, hoping their necks could be saved from the gallows.
"Is it true?" Tobias asked.
Ian's seven soldiers nodded, agreeing with what had been said earlier, "He said those five soldiers intended to destroy the city, so Lord Ian told us to kill him."
Tobias' eyes narrowed, looking at Ian, who seemed carried with both hands cuffed behind his back. His f

Divine Sword Art System Chapter 108. Sinful Night
Three hours later. As the night grew late, the moon rose steadily in its beautiful, perfectly round shape. Tobias stood alone before the five earthen mounds where his five soldiers were buried. It was a much different scene than at the camp center. The soldiers partied, drank, ate meat to their heart's content, and had sex one after another with the bitches sent from Lakebarrow. The number of women reached 1,000. Ubaldo hired all the women in the city to satisfy the soldiers' lust. Tobias wasn't interested in that at all. Instead, he was busy pondering, figuring out what to do next. Liam arrived with a man, fully armored. He glanced to his right and left, searching for the whereabouts of his lord. "Lord Tobias," Liam called out as he found Tobias' presence. The young man immediately turned around, looking at Liam, who arrived with a man. Liam explained that the man beside him was the leader of the city guard; he was Hannes. "He's Hanne
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 109. Aristocratic Behavior
Hearing Tobias's troops were already preparing made Ian rethink about killing Tobias. If he, recklessly, killed Tobias right before his soldiers, then the possibility of 20,000 of his troops would move to destroy the city.Not only that, Ian didn't really know what Tobias Archibald's strength was; it could be stronger or weaker. These possibilities made his heart doubtful. Ian turned his head slowly, looking at his son, Egon, who died with his head cut off."Think carefully, Ian Ubaldo. You have no chance of winning here," said Tobias.Ian Ubaldo remained silent, his wife and daughter's eyes fixed on the bulky man, hoping his decision would benefit them. Ian looked back at Tobias and his dozens of battle-ready troops behind the young man's back."Then what should I do? Just accept the circumstances of my dead son?" asked Ian Ubaldo, pointing at Egon's head that was still in his wife's arms."That is all you can do for now. Egon died because of his
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 110. Arrest Warrant
*** Five days later. Tobias, along with his troops, continued to make his way through the country roads toward Leafvile. However, before reaching his main destination, he had to visit Carlisle as Beatrix had told him. The young man sat on a horse, walking along with Liam and Felicia at the front. Right behind the three were 27,500 troops consisting of the two city armies, Vitrea and Lakebarrow. There was no significant dispute between them. The closeness began to be formed because they had abandoned the identity of city soldiers but were now part of the Archibald Nobility soldiers. They were all proud that Tobias' noble title was much higher in status than their previous leader. The soldiers were confident that Tobias could give them a better life than they were currently living. Whenever Tobias' troops marched through the village streets with tens of thousands of soldiers, all the villagers spontaneously watched it like a military parade. Even some village chiefs looked terrifie
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 111. Noble Demeanor
"So, you conspired with Edgar to arrest me? I didn't kidnap her after all!" explained Tobias, trying to be defensive."No thief would ever confess. I'd rather do Edgar's bidding than let you go," replied the woman in the leaf-green dress, pointing rudely at Tobias."Are you a fool? Look at her! Did I do something bad to that girl?!" snapped Tobias.The woman turned around, looking at Felicia, who didn't seem to have suffered any violence from Tobias. Her body was in good condition. There were no bruises nor any traumatized look from the woman.She seemed to be walking toward Felicia, her delicate and graceful hands reaching out to grasp Felicia's arm. Terrified by what had happened, Felicia began to back away, approaching Tobias, who was frozen with his legs shackled by the tree roots."See, she's more afraid of you than me," Tobias snapped.The woman sensed the fear in Felicia's heart. She feared that just because the woman before her had brutally killed Tobias' troops, she would hat
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 112. Innocent Interrogation
"In the arrest warrant, it doesn't say that the person who arrested Tobias Archibald has the right to execute him," Jeremias replied, looking pointedly at Tobias."So, you won't be executed today or the next few days," Jeremias explained."That's pretty sad," Tobias complained.Jeremias began to look seriously into Tobias' eyes. He was about to start interrogating the young man about why Tobias had kidnapped Felicia. All members of the house of Adelard were required to witness the interrogation so there were enough witnesses to see and hear."We'll focus on your interrogation. Why did you kidnap Felicia?" Leonora asked, asking after she got a nod from Jeremias Adelard."I didn't kidnap her after all," Tobias insisted.Leonora's eyes continued to stare at Tobias while her father focused on sensing the magical pulse that emerged from each of Tobias' answers. The young man's answer would determine whether he was guilty or not, according to Jere

The chaos ensued in the city center, many Carlisle City soldiers began to prepare for the worst. The citizens, especially children, and women, began to be evacuated in turn to the bunkers provided by the city government.Leonora, her mother, and several high-class mages in the city began to gather, forming a circle in a magic research tower. They gathered to pool their mana to protect the city by creating a magical barrier.[Magic Skill: Nature's Protective Wall]Transforming the roots that spread out to form a dome required at least twenty people with high magic power to bring up the protective magic. Only 10 people with high magic power had been gathered; it was only a matter of waiting for the remaining 10 people to form the perfect protective dome.The relentless attack was launched by Tobias' troops. Liam led the attack, hoping Adelard could release Tobias and return the young man to them.Jeremias went out from his residence, stepping with th
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 114. The Death of South Giant Noble
Some of the soldiers saw Tobias' worried condition, carried by Liam's two hands with a face as pale as the sour milk that appeared on Tobias' face. Liam dashed, heading to the north gate, which was already fully controlled by Tobias' troops."What about Lady Felicia?" asked one of the soldiers.They all didn't see Felicia near Liam. That's because Liam didn't meet Felicia when he entered the Adelard residence."We will think about it. We should retreat before more Alderad troops arrive!" said Liam."Tobias' safety first. I'm sure Felicia is fine with them," Liam explained.Hearing the man's clear orders made the thousands of troops currently under his command begin to retreat from the front lines. All the soldiers, whether on the walls or inside the city, began to walk back to protect Tobias.Carlisle's troops began to stop their attack right after they all saw Tobias' thousands of soldiers retreating from the assault this time.

***Five hours later."His condition is getting better. I have closed the wound on his belly," explained the medical unit leader, explaining Tobias' treatment process to Liam."What on earth happened to him?" asked Liam, curious."I don't know, but my guess is that he's suffering from exhaustion and lack of blood," the woman replied.The two stood facing each other next to the bed where Tobias lay. His condition wasn't as severe as that of a soldier fighting on the front lines, but the accumulation of fatigue, stress, and wounds on Tobias' body worsened his condition."When will he wake up?" Liam asked."I don't know, maybe tomorrow or the day after; maybe sooner," said the woman.She said goodbye to Liam, going to another patient who needed her treatment. Liam alone was standing by Tobias' bed, waiting for the man to wake up. He pulled out a wooden chair and sat down as he continued to watch Tobias' face closely."What

Chapter 255. The Everlasting Promises
Tobias looked faintly behind him, seeing thousands of human troops trying to chase Renna, who flew quickly to the east, back to the border area between the Forbidden Territory and the Human Territory.Tobias' right hand could be seen tightly grasped by Renna's left hand, while Aurora could be seen carried by the right. The two people left the place at high speed."I did exactly what you wanted. What's next?" asked Renna, curious.Renna continued flying with the help of her two black wings. Directed forward with the condition that she had left the troops of mankind.While flying freely, Renna occasionally glanced back, trying to ascertain Tobias' next plan.However, Tobias did not show any response, still silent, with both eyes directed forward to the rocky mountains rather than Renna's sights.As Renna flew over the rocky mountains, the lush green countryside with trees was clearly visible in Tobias' eyes. It indicated that Tobias was now in human territory."Where are you taking me,

Chapter 254. Guilt Atonement
Aerith did not hesitate to attack Tobias with all the power she had, with the mana capacity the woman had not so much anymore, the impact of the previous use of the palace's protective magic."Akihiko! Listen to me," Tobias insisted, asking Aerith to talk to him."You killed my husband! I won't forgive you," Aerith cried.With two magic circles appearing in front of Aerith's palms, dark black magic balls with a reddish-black color rushed towards Tobias' body.Tobias was able to deflect them easily, using his katana sword as if he was playing a game of baseball with Aerith. The magic balls flew in random directions, then exploded with a significant blast.Aurora looked terrified, taking cover behind Aerith's back with both Aurora's eyes closed. Tobias occasionally looked at Aurora, the little girl shouldn't be in a place like this."You shouldn't let Aurora see this fight," Tobias pleaded.Aerith stopped her attack on Tobias, looked back and saw Aurora who was trembling in fear with bo

Chapter 253. The Dangers of Sultur
"So, you want to get in my way?" asked Tobias, pointing his sword forward."No one is allowed to come near our King and Queen!" groaned one of the werewolves.It leapt powerfully forward, both hands and feet full of claws. Tobias parried each of the werewolf's claws with his katana, the monster's attacks were powerful enough, but not enough to defeat Tobias.Not only by itself, but the werewolf seemed to be assisted by several people, two representatives of the superior races in the Mythological Kingdom. A centaur walked over with his right hand pulling out a large sword, swinging at Tobias' head.Tobias was pushed back, the blade of his katana was blocking the attack of the monster's claws before him, so he had nothing to do but put his faith in the golden armor he wore. Tobias spun around, seemingly turning his back to the werewolf without changing the grip of the sword in his right hand. Tobias' left hand stretched out to the side, blocking the centaur's sword strike with the fing

Chapter 252. Battle Inside The Palace
Tobias was still seated on his horse, focusing both eyes forward to the Mythology Kingdom palace where Aerith and the other officials were taking refuge.Liam was now near Tobias, focusing equally on the palace. Liam's eyes narrowed, never before had he seen people from different races in the Forbidden Territory come together to fight humanity."Are we going to fight them all?" Liam asked."If we don't want the chain of hatred between the two sides to grow again, then we must fight them," Tobias said firmly.He dismounted, stepping closer to the palace gates that seemed to be protected by something. The people inside the palace were on alert, especially after seeing the man in golden armor walking closer.Tobias' hand stretched forward, trying to touch the magic barrier. Just as his fingers made contact, a spark of electricity and fire was created that startled Tobias.Tobias' eyes squinted hard, seeing the white smoke from his finger's contact with the magic wall."Are you okay?" ask

Chapter 251. Northern Gate Assault
Hearing Tobias' impassioned cry made all the soldiers flare up with excitement. They shouted loudly, raising their swords, bows and spears in the hope that the war would end in this battle.Gunnar led the troops that would attack at the center gate. Their main goal was not to penetrate that place, but rather to distract the Mythology Kingdom's troops from the north gate.Just as Edgar led the troops to attack the southern gate. In this battle, three armies of humanity will besiege the capital from three entry points: north, center, and south.Gunnar led the army with Adrian and Karin, while Edgar was alone with Laura. However, Tobias had asked Laura to use her illusion magic. He wanted the mythology troops to know that Tobias was in the troops attacking the southern gate.The focus of the Mythology Kingdom troops will be on Tobias, because only he can determine the course of this war. If Laura managed to display Tobias' projection at the southern gate, then it was certain that the Myt

Chapter 250. Rumbling War
Seeing that the banyan tree territory was completely controlled by the dwarves made Tobias' heart happy. The dwarves shouted with joy, some cried with emotion while hugging each other.One of the lead dwarves walked up to Tobias. He raised a hat similar to a magic cone and lowered it while bowing his head.Not only did he do this, but the other dwarves did the same. They paid their highest respects to Tobias, who was a human, in his attempt to reclaim the sacred place for them."Thank you, Mr. Tobias. We dwarves will always be indebted to humans," the dwarf replied.Tobias, who was still sitting upright on his mount, dismounted, stepped up to the dwarf and reached forward, asking both parties to shake hands."Welcome to your true home. Keep your promise not to participate in this war," Tobias said.The dwarf cast both eyes downward, looking at Tobias' right hand that was pointed forward. The dwarf in front of Tobias smiled widely with a nod of his head, shaking Tobias with both hands.

Chapter 249. Battle under Tree
In the end, Tobias agreed with the dwarves on a plan of attack. However, the dwarves wanted to give a special condition. They wanted when the attack on the Mythological Kingdom Capital happened, he wanted all the dwarves to have left their city.In short, they wanted Tobias to liberate the promised area immediately. Once the area was free of wild elves, then Tobias could freely attack the capital.Gunnar, who happened to still be beside Tobias, spontaneously asked about the requirement. Tobias turned his face to the side, staring intently at the man."We'll carry out the terms well," Tobias said."But with whom? It will take about half a day to mobilize the troops there," Gunnar replied.Tobias shook his head as his eyes star

Chapter 248. Negotiate with Dwarves
Tobias' head kept moving to the right and left, seeing how many Mythology troops were guarding the gate of the capital connected to the city of the dwarves.Not so much; there were probably only about 1000 people, in contrast to the gate in the center where there were probably about 5000 to 10,000 mythological troop soldiers.Liam and Gunnar did the same, looking around the surrounding area as Tobias had done. However, they were not paying attention to the soldiers above the gate but to the dwarves in that place."If the dwarves fight too, then we'll have a hard time," Liam replied softly."You're right. The dwarves are good at using magic. Their abilities are almost comparable to the elves," Renna added, turning her head to the side to look at Tobias.
