It had been a while since Rain had seen so many enemies… that was still a good opportunity for him, though. Still, just like all good opportunities, they co with so risks… Rain could beco crazy strong, killing a lot of enemies, but he also could die if he catches the attention of the big shots on the enemy's side.
"Which tribe do they belong to?" Jori asked. "They are still too far away for to see them…"
"We don't have information about that since they operated on the other side of their country; that is another reason why they are so dangerous," Branden explained.
The enemies stopped marching when they were one kiloter away from the city and began to prepare for the battle. While they didn't want more humans to join the fray, they also couldn't rush too much. They had been cautious for a while and even devised such a trap to lure the human army away from their stronghold, so there was no reason for them to rush ahead now.
Rain looked to the other side and then saw so enemies being pushed away from the walls of the city; so were escaping since they didn't have enough numbers, and the high morale of the humans was a problem. Still, there was a chance that they still could be attacked from two sides, so they couldn't drop their guard.
"n! Those dirty invaders are trying to kill us all and take over this city again. Are you going to let those swine do that and fester our lands with their stench?" Revan asked while shouting.
"NO SIR!"
"Then we can only punish the scum for trying to do that, and the punishnt is their death," Revan shouted. "Today, your swords will be the executioner's blade that will pass judgnt on the neck of the scum. Sharpen them well because we won't stop until all of them are dead!"
"WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"
The human's morale certainly was sky high, to the point that they forgot or that they were pretending that they fell for a trap. In any case, Revan knew how to control an army in his favor. After shouting so orders, Revan approached the group. The organization was there, and there was no reason for them to follow Revan's orders directly when Branden was there.
While he wasn't that experienced in giving orders on the field, his presence would still pump them up.
"I am going to give you the command of your soldiers, and you can guard the southern side of the wall," Revan said while looking at Branden. "Don't do anything stupid in order to beco more famous."
"Understood," Branden said.
They didn't have ti to waste bickering among each other, so Branden only said that. Without wasting ti, he moved to the other side, and the mbers of the organization followed him… a few of them were wounded, but it was nothing serious.
As for the casualties that they suffered, it didn't reach the digits mark, but Branden still felt like he should have co up with so sort of plan to prevent that… It was a lesson that he learned from a mistake that he was determined not to commit again.
"The gate here is sealed, but can you open up and close once we need it?" Branden asked.
"I have so potions that the commander gave , so I can do that a few tis," Rain replied. "I would rather use that mana doing sothing else, though."
Rain was being a bit too greedy since he wanted more experience, but it couldn't be helped. Until now, he had been a team player through and through… so he felt that he deserved so freedom. He wondered if that was sothing he should think about in a war…
"Save your mana for when I give you the order to use. We will have to work together to prevent casualties while Killing as many enemies as possible," Branden said and then began to give the order for so groups to split to stay on the wall while others would stay behind.
Branden didn't give room for debate on that matter, and while it was troubleso for Rain, it couldn't be helped. He was their leader, and they were in a war; a commander shouldn't show weakness or let his underlings question his choices. Otherwise, they will never stop doing that.
A commander had to be one hundred percent certain of their orders in order to pass that much confidence and to avoid being questioned.
While Rain was thinking about what he should do to make their lives easier on the battlefield, Jori dragged him out a bit far away from the group and began to whisper.
"What did you do to piss Terra that much?" Jori asked.
"I don't know, I didn't do anything, she just got pissed all of a sudden," Rain replied. "I guess she is stressed since people are dying left and right, and she can't do a thing. Or maybe she is in her period. Or maybe both."
"I guess I was foolish to ask that from you when you can answer like that…" Jori said and then sighed. "Anyway, if you don't get hurt too much, that should help a bit, so try to be reasonable."
"I will be as reasonable as I can in the middle of a war," Rain replied.
While they didn't have ti for talking about that kind of thing, at least it gave Rain an idea. When Branden was about to climb the wall again, Rain touched the ground and then and then made a staircase made of dirt erge. It seed sturdy enough and large enough for a few soldiers to climb it.
"We can use this to make our soldiers co and go," Rain said. "I can also make it disappear before the enemies can use it. I have other ideas as well..."
"Won't that consu a lot of mana?" Branden asked.
