Seeing all this happen left Glenn utterly shocked. The power of those two is enough to kill an entire knight order.And what gave him chill in his bones the most is the fact that Kraig, one of the Captains of the Empire army can use his magic affinity without chant!When was the last time a human can use magic without chanting? Way back 500 years ago when the demon king still lives.Is this the end of their struggles to defend their city? Of all the times when humanity needed magic without using chant, the empire showed it by destroying another human city.When did they become so low? Is it because the demon race is not on the move and instead they chose to use their fang against humans for the pursuit of power?The two are gravely wounded but none of them seem to back down and retreat. As the knights and magicians continue their own battle, killing each other without hesitation, the two great fighters unleashed their full potential and continue their battle.Glenn was astonished, if
The entire army of the empire is divided into three camps in a different locations but all are facing Auburn City.The commander leading the whole army is located in the center, and the two camps are on each side.Their supplies are further back in the camp which is located on the nearby hills.Two people with boxes full of exploding bombs are standing atop on one of the hills surrounding the empire army.The neat camp of a small army of knights becomes a mess when Robert and Bea performed a surprise attack which made them unable to move for a couple of seconds which greatly helps the two finish their job quickly.A pile of dead bodies with insignia of the empire was lying on the ground, and tents and carriages are destroyed.The two heaved a sigh of relief when they arrive on time and figured the destruction of the supply camp of the empire didn’t arouse suspicion on the latter.Robert reaches into his chest pocket and takes out a box of cigarettes. Normally Bea will get mad due to h
Captain Glenn quickly briefed Robert and Bea about what happened and their plan.“Actually, we do not have that plan. After we give them a surprise attack using the hills surrounding them, all we need to do is to hold on until the reinforcement comes.”“Good job. You’ve done what a captain should have done.” BeaGlenn wryly smile at the praise he received. No exaggerations but simple praise like that is a big help for him to regain his composure and strength. Besides these two are famous people from the Narva Kingdom.All the knights have heard their name, along with Greith, Alistar, Sia, and many more powerful individuals.Even though these two cannot be compared to the mentioned three names, they are still in a class of their own.“Since you two are here, I hereby request you to take command of our forces!”Glenn respectfully requests to Robert and Bea.“I am afraid, we cannot. We are not here to take command of your forces, we are here to help you liberate your city. It means we ar
The nearby knights who heard the cheering gathered at the front entrance of the command center.The knight Glenn ordered to bring the reserved two groups of lance fournie or are most known as cavalry arrived on the command center and inform Captain Glenn the reserved cavalry are just outside.Each group is composed of twenty-five knights on a horseback. Ten are using lances while the rest are using swords.These groups of knights are highly trained which is why Glenn keeps them for the worst-case scenario. Their way of training is harsher than those of normal knights. They hunt demon beasts stronger than them.It is said there are unfortunate knights that lose limbs or worse died during their training. But those who survive the harsh training are celebrated all over Auburn City. They are the elite troops.The citizen is very proud of them. Truth be told, they are the only troops that made the wolf-beast stop its killing mission when the last defense of the city was erected during its
Four people walk in the direction of the command center.While walking, Glenn informed Matta about the situation of Robert and Bea and their current position in Auburn City.“For real?! Are you insane Glenn?! Why didn’t you persuade them to be the commander in chief? They are talented in strategy more than us.” Matt muttered in shocked“I did everything I did to persuade them but their reason is enough to keep us the commander of our forces.”“Although I empathize with you, still, the most important thing is to make them the commander.” Captain Glenn didn’t answer because the next information he need to tell him should be kept hidden until that certain someone arrived.It didn’t take long before they reached the command center and once they all settled and Glenn figured that no one could hear the information he is about to blurt out, he started to cascade the information he received from Robert and Bea.“The thing is, Mayor Lester Silverstein is still alive and currently seeking rein
Inside a command center just outside the wall of Auburn City, the two commander cannot calm their confused mind due to the information they just heard.It took them almost five minutes.“About that weapon endowed with rune magic, is it true? The empire has it?” Matt“Yes, the empire somehow discovered how to create a weapon endowed with rune magic.” Bea“Ehhh?!” Glenn exclaimed.Everyone ignores Glenn as Matt is more intrigued about how the Empire can pull it off.“If that is all true, our success nearly plummets to zero.” Matt“That is not correct. The emperor is not a fool to distribute the weapon endowed with rune magic to his entire forces. We believed, it is only selected. But we are still not certain how long the emperor can continue playing the role of his army in the current situation. If he was forced, he will surely distribute all the weapons endowed with rune magic he has to all his forces.” Bea“So everything is at stake on how we quickly kill the emperor huh. Is the emper
Under the silent moon, the empire’s army is in disarray. The remaining knights and head magicians are currently talking about what happened earlier which causes them great loss and what steps should be done moving forward. Several captains are in a heated argument.“What do we do?! We’ve been having this conversation for hours! I say we focus on our objective and destroy annihilate all the enemy’s forces and take hold of the City!”“Shut up! Didn’t you hear what was the real order? Do not attack at full force until further notice! Our main objective is to drain their strength because the emperor is still showing mercy for them.”“So we’ll let those bastards slide after stealing our supplies and use the explosives against us? Is that what you want?!”The heated argument continue until one of the captains who’s keeping silent since the meeting commenced slam the table which startled all the present individuals in the meeting.“Enough! All of you listen!!!”All the individuals present he
The new order from the emperor will arrive after two days while the official who occupies the position of Alistar will arrive tomorrow morning.Is it okay? Just to defend the camp and wait for further order?Felix spent the whole hour contemplating while receiving continuous news about the surprise attack of the enemy.He tried to calm himself whilst their enemy is having their time in a surprise attack.One of his adjutants enters the command center requesting his approval to grant the audience to the knight bringing the report about their supplies and the remaining numbers of their forces.The adjutant bows his head.“My Lord, the knight under the command of Captain Castelo is seeking your audience. He was here to bring a report about our supplies and the total number of our manpower.”“Okay. Let him in.”Felix simply replied.“As you wish My Lord.”The adjutant bowed once more and left to inform the knight that he can enter. It only took a couple of seconds before the knight enter
