The whole place fell silent. Winds can be heard as it breezes on their faces. Breathing is no exception. Everyone was utterly stunned. No one dares to move an inch or say anything for afraid of disrespecting the mysterious guy! Deep in their heart, they sent a farewell message to the Vice Captain to be cannon fodder. If he didn’t for sure, some of the people here who are against the decisions of the captains and head magicians to ally with the Narva Kingdom will act recklessly which can cause them to die instantly due to the unbelievable power of this mysterious guy! “H-how is this possible?! How can a mere wooden branch stop my strongest attack? That is my strongest attack for god sake!” The Vice Captain who attacks him breaks the silence as he utters in disbelief and confusion. “No! I must be dreaming! Anyone, please slap me! Slap me!” Upon witnessing what just happened, the Vice Captain becomes a madman! He quickly rush everyone to slap him but no one was heeding his order.
In Auburn City, inside the Mayor’s mansion, the highest ranking of people is currently in dilemma. Robert, who was heavily injured in his last fight, is now stable, but his healed wound is starting to hurt again.As Robert cannot take it anymore, he lashes out and wantonly brushes his hair with both hands.“Argh! Where is he?! He’s been out since morning. It’s already midnight and yet he’s not yet back?!”Bea massages her forehead using her two slender fingers while her eyes are closed.Celeste is walking back and forth while softly mumbling while Selene shows a worried expression on her beautiful face.Matt and Glenn are sitting still and look composed like they have no problem with their outside looks. But they too like them are in dilemma.The scout they tasked to monitor the movements of their enemies come back earlier than they expected and reported bad news.It seems their enemies will attack them tomorrow morning. All of them anticipated it and it was criminally coincident beca
Midnight arrived, three fourth of the whole forces in Auburn City is peacefully sleeping. This is not the first time it happened in the history of war but if the enemy knew it, they would surely explode in anger and madness!No one is stationed near the main gate and the city walls. Some of them are stationed in watch towers on the rampart so they would not notice if someone paint the walls.This is the best time for Jin and his friends to activate the rune magic. The rune letters are already engraved on the walls and gate.Jin, Celeste, Robert, Selene, Bea, Matt, Captain Glenn, and the head magician of the elite forces of Auburn City are all standing at the main gate. The previous majestic gate was already destroyed when the enemies fire a cannon engraved with rune magic.The gate on their front is not as majestic and sturdy as before. They have no choice, they are in the middle of the war. They needed to finish it quickly to defend the city.Captain Glenn clicked his tongue seeing t
After meditating for almost two hours. Jin stands up first and surveys the main gate.The main gate looks normal but he is sure and confident that it become a hundred times more durable than it was before.But he cannot say if it can withstand the attack of cannon engraved with rune magic. But he also knows that those damn cannon and this main gate are only classified as low grade rune magic.So no matter who performs the process, it will stay as it is. No exception.But it is a different question of this main gate was bombarded by many cannons! It will surely get destroyed!All those awake are oblivious to what just happened since they are only a few and stationed far away from the main gate and the front walls.If they witness such a scene, they would cheer for sure. After all, they are not ignorant in terms of rune magic. It was a renowned creation of the dwarves.Jin slowly stood up and survey the gate. The rune letter engraved on it can be mistaken as a design only. Well, althoug
Jin was able to quickly convinced everyone to trust him. All of them channel their mana to him which they just replenished earlier. Jin’s body quickly improves which can be seen in the naked eye. Although replenishing mana can improve one’s body, the tiredness and exhaustion will remain. Upon replenishing the mana, Jin was able to fully concentrate. Since this is the first time the spell will be performed in this world. Jin must not be careless. He still didn’t know if there was a repercussion if he failed. But it isn’t hurt to be ready. After quite some time, Jin can now perform the spell. First, he imagines the vortex. He started to chant and spilled whatever words form in his mind. He didn’t mind too much about what words he spilled, besides the chant is only a diversion. His mind and imagination are the triggers, not the chant. Since there are people surrounding him at the moment that doesn’t know that he can release magic or perform a spell without chanting, it is safe to cha
Jin was speechless, even if his mind have a mouth, it will become speechless too.He sighed inwardly and take the compliment silently.He then focuses his mind on his spell. He inhales and exhales deeply. As his mind become calm and so did his posture which affected the circulation of the mana in his body.He can feel inside his body the mana stored by sucking the mana through the spell vortex. Since this spell is new to him, although it is the second time he uses it. It doesn’t mean he can quickly master the spell.Not only do his hands become heavy, but his body also feels the weight of the mana stored on his body. He tried to absorb the mana for his own use but his body seems to reject it. At first, he was weirded out by it but when he realized that the spell he used is intended only for rune magic.This means the mana sucked by the spell vortex is only used for the rune magic. Jin quickly regrets his action for being narrow minded due to his excitement.Sigh. An opportunity is was
Jin woke up to the loud ringing of the bell in the nearby church.His short nap apparently becomes a long nap. No one can blame him, his body is exhausted from the job they just finished.He quickly finished his morning routines and went outside of the Mayor’s Mansion. He heads to the tent that served as the command center that was built in the plaza.Upon entering, he saw how busy is Captain Glenn and Celeste. Bea and Robert are already gone to their stations while Selene is helping Celeste.Captain Glenn keep giving the command to the standby knights that served as representatives for each troop.These representatives will give the news of what was happening outside the city to the command center and will receive further orders from Celeste and Captain Glenn.This is the normal communication during the medieval era when war is taking place. How I wish cellphones are available right now. Even a walkie-talkie is a big help in their situations. The delay of response will be much lessen
As the hundreds of imperial knights fall on the ground one by one with their cold dead bodies. Captain Felix becomes enraged. Vein starts to bulge on his forehead as he surveys his comrades getting killed without having a chance to attack their enemy.These idiots are ignorant! No, he too becomes ignorant. After defending himself from the first wave of arrows, he figured that it was only because of the desperate situation of the city that they used any means just to win the war.Little they didn’t know the arrow was dipped and coated with poison! And what is most shocking of all is after ten seconds of contact, a person that was pierced or only scratched will die.Captain Felix is not ignorant. He knows the poison was a product of the adventurer guild. Since the adventurer guild side with the city, Sia will surely provide reinforcements or worst she herself will come.He gulped and his heart start beating fast. Sia was the strongest human of the current era. No one was able to defeat
