The party continued into the night; the soldiers built a sizable campfire and drank around it. Many of the captains returned to their tents, tired and wanting to rest their bodies.Liam was the same; he went to say goodbye to Tobias. Tobias nodded, allowing Liam to leave. Now, Tobias was the only one there, just wanting to warm himself up by facing the large campfire.Shortly after the captains and Liam left, Captain Laura came out of her tent. She was still wearing a simple T-shirt and trousers. However, her face looked much prettier thanks to the make-up she put on.She walked over to Tobias, still sitting on a tree trunk, drinking a glass of hot tea as he warmed himself by the fire. The woman immediately sat down with Tobias."Did you enjoy the party?" Laura asked, Tobias smiling as he raised his glass."At least I can relax today before the hard days of battle come," Tobias replied."Let's talk about this in your tent," Laura pleaded, st
***The next day."When did he wake up?" asked Gunnar, curious."I don't know. Laura didn't say anything about Tobias' collapse," Karin replied.She had been the one to lead Tobias' healing. Since last night, she had smelled strange scents from Tobias' tent, like a mixture of sweat and something else.She and her soldiers had not been able to determine what had caused Tobias to faint, but the initial suspicion was that it was just the effects of exhaustion from partying from day to night."If he fainted due to exhaustion, it doesn't make sense. He has a strong endurance. He can even defeat hundreds of soldiers in battle and not feel slightly tired," Liam explained.The man knew exactly what Tobias' strength was like, so Karin's reasoning in explaining the cause of Tobias' unconsciousness was irrelevant.In that place, there were only Liam, Gunnar, and Karin. Edgar was seriously conversing with Laura about the effects of Tobias' unconsciousness."Today should be the day we plan additio
***The next day."Is he awake yet?" asked Liam, entering Tobias' tent.Liam could see Karin and some medics in the area, as well as Laura, who had asked Karin for permission to continue keeping Tobias company. This was the third day Tobias had been unconscious, which coincided with the plan to attack Sungate Castle.Karin shook her head. Tobias' body temperature kept getting warmer. An IV was injected into Tobias' body to prevent the young man from dehydrating during his unconsciousness.The news that Tobias had been unconscious for several days made the captains and other soldiers anxious, especially those who had previously fought alongside Tobias. They realised that losing Tobias would be a major blow to the troop."What should we do?" asked Karin."The engineer troops have completed their work. The two siege towers are ready to go," Liam replied, signalling that the troops should be ready to take to the battlefield."Time
***Two days later"I gathered you to finalize our previous plan. Our encampment location is already close enough to Sungate Castle's location. From what I saw on Atrea's map, Sungate Castle is behind that hill," Liam replied.It took about half an hour to cross the hill to reach Sungate Castle. Archibald's troops, who had just arrived at that point, made it impossible to launch an immediate attack.Liam sat on the floor right in Tobias' tent. All the captains were in the same place, without exception. They were now following Liam's words, as Tobias could still not serve due to his coma."Darren said Sungate is one of three places Valcke's troops are heavily guarding. I'm going to make the most of this. If we can take it, Valcke will be even more put under pressure," Liam replied.The Vice Commander of Archibald's troops wandered his gaze, looking at Edgar, who was in charge of reconnoitering. The activity would significantly affect the flow
***The troops were ready when it was five o'clock in the morning. Yellowish light appeared from the east, making the blue sky rise as a sign of a new day.Liam sat on his horse, accompanied by the other captains, including Karin. The tents in the camp had been cleared except for Tobias' tent. The soldiers were wearing their dark blue armor to prepare for battle.From the front, Liam watched Edgar and Gunnar arrive at the camp. Liam deliberately sent them away for good reason. The man wanted to know the circumstances at Sungate Castle that morning."All the guard posts have been destroyed. Sungate Castle's gates are sealed; it looks like they're ready for battle," Edgar explained, stopping his horse right before Liam and the other captains."What about the soldiers guarding the logistics line?" Liam asked Gunnar."They're still keeping a vigilant watch. If something bad happens there, we'll know about it," Gunnar replied."Alright. Ev
The southern wall of the castle was completely unbreakable, and the artillery strikes of the 10 trebuchets failed to destroy the iron castle. Seeing this, it was no wonder that people called it the Solar Castle due to its amazing strength and durability.Despite the failure, the trebuchets threw stones relentlessly at the city center. This was done in order to let the townspeople and soldiers of Sungate escape on their own.With the fire growing, they had no choice but to leave the place. After thirty minutes of waiting for the impact of the trebuchet attack, Liam raised his right hand as it was tightly clenched.Adrian saw Liam's hand gesture, indicating that he wanted to end the artillery attack. Adrian looked back, ordering his soldiers to stop attacking.The soldiers began to stop reloading the trebuchets, ceasing the attack and focussing their eyes on Adrian.The vibrations in the city began to subside, the soldiers who had been sheltering in
Tobias came out of the tent, startling the ten infantry soldiers standing guard outside. They hadn't expected Tobias to wake up from his coma.There wasn't a single horse in the place, so Tobias had to walk to Sungate, which was behind the hill. As Tobias was about to leave, one of the soldiers stopped him."Your condition is unstable, Lord Tobias. Let Karin's aide recover your strength first," said one of the soldiers standing before Tobias.Tobias didn't answer, instead turning to stare intently at the soldier in front of him. Realising that Tobias' attitude was hard to persuade, the soldier began to give up.He opened the way for his commander to keep walking. The young man strode back with dignity, the golden coat that looked like a shadow of a coat constantly fluttering in the wind."I'll go after him. You take care of Tobias' tent," Karin's aide said, the infantry soldiers nodding.The woman, along with her fellow medic, stepped quickl
Seeing Liam call out to her, Karin immediately rushed to the man. She was stunned to see Tobias lying limp on the ground, vomiting blood. Several captains surrounded Tobias, guarding the young man from Valcke's attack."Take him to the med tent," Liam said, and Karin nodded.Tobias was immediately carried by two medics on a stretcher. Along the way to the medical tent, she felt the man's body turn cold. Karin was much more afraid of a cold temperature than a warm temperature.Not only did his body temperature turn cold, but Karin also checked the young man's pulse. He still had a pulse, but it was weak and slow."He is dying. Take him to the private tent!" said Karin.They took Tobias to a tent set up originally to treat wounded captains, but it was now being used to treat Tobias' condition.Karin and her two soldiers arrived at the place, they lifted Tobias' body up onto the bed. Karin herself focused on getting the tools to help her task o

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,
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
"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
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
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
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.
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
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.
