Chapter 266: The Battle
The seven foremost line of soldiers raised their arrows in the air as the Moon empire troops successfully breached the gate, imdiately they began to run forwards, arrows of fire were Unleashed upon them which caught many but the Moon empire did not lose their other. The knights put up their large shield and the soldiers without shield stood behind the heavily armoured knights knights they pushed forward. The shooting of arrows continued to sap the Moon empire of its soldiers.
Seeing this Braschiold had no choice, having created three Jotuns, ice giant spirit to deal with the titans. He was trying to preserve his strength for his strongest summon.
"Summoners!! Bring forth your strongest summon!!" He shouted.
All the Summoners got in line and multiple summoning circle appeared in line. Different spirits began to co from the circle. spirit, fairies, lowest races of celestials, monsters, undead. All poured out of the circle and rushed at the soldiers with speed.
"Raaaaaaaaaghhh" Aurora’s scream began to allow the draconic direwolves transford and began to go wild each with their attribute. The battlefield once again got intense. The vampires did not relent. Vandraal and the other counts led their hoard of vampires into the sea of soldiers and since nightfall was upon them and the moon was up, they were stronger. They began to bring out their soul weapons.
"I thought they were supposed to be greatly weakened, how are they so strong?!!" Duke Griswold yelled from the castle walls where he stood.
"This is crazy they are strong!!" Duke Bardulf said.
From below the castle, the gate opened to reveal Rai and the others that attended the academy together as they ran forward elegantly on their horses each cladded in armours of their household.
"Right, our children will bring us victory" Duke Filmore said.
"Lord Filmore, you do not have a son here" Duke Edgerton replied his as he joined them on the walls and watched.
Pika amidst all the bloodshed walked forward, but plunging any soldier that ca in his path, rembering Reinard’s promise to release the seal placed on him if he defeat so particular sobody.
Ben seeming to be more aggressive than usual destroyed all the soldiers with wide range magical attacks and explosive attacks.
Goldevia led the golden knights and plunged into all of the dark Knight while she was occupied with the first and second ranked black Knight she was later aided by Sigrid who made things easier for her.
While Milan easily targeted the generals, slashing their heads off their necks with his fangs but was quick to forgive the ones that begged for their life.
The tide of the battle that was expected to turn by the Duchies of Forgan empire disappointed them as they realized their enemies had been hiding their true sense while fighting outside the walls. Though the human soldiers and Knight were getting tired but the demihumans(draconic direwolves, vampires and other inhuman races).
Rai and the rest charged in, turned the tide of the battle a bit but until he was blocked by Natasha, sow were the others blocked by Admon, Garagos and the generals. They stood no chance and were critically wounded between three exchanges of strike with Garagos. While Rai and Natasha entered an intensive one on one battle.
Far north of the city sat a lady fully covered in a white cloak and a short person beside her.
"...there is no better place to amass souls than a battlefield...we are almost their, five hundred souls more and the integration of Tiamat’s soul will be complete all that will be left is to find a suitable body. The short person said.
The tall lady was wearing a golden bracelet that was glowing.
"Will the white dragon will be okay though?"
"Of course she will be, afterall the she has waited so long for this mont" the person replied.
The intense battle continued all throughout the night, slowly morning was befallen them, the Moon soldiers were getting severely tired and the only ones still holding out were the demi humans. The load of protecting being too much on them, made the expose openings and the moon empire began to loose soldiers.
Arnette gritted his teeth as he could do nothing to do this.
"Perhaps it is ti to retreat" he said.
"No!" Jon appeared and said, "look" he pointed to the skies.
Just then the aerial squads flew towards them from afar with a large wooden box within the grasp of the limbs.
"What is that?" Arnette said.
"I don’t know but whatever it is, is definitely good" said.
As the aerial squad got closer, the wyverns and other flight mount began to attack. A small girl jumped off one of the wyverns and on landing she transford into a large spider.
~wooooshhh~
The tides of battle once again changed.
Soone on a wyvern approached Jon and Arnette.
"My na is Thurber, we are from the Central artic, we are sorry it took a ti for us to reach here as we had many things to walk on, but I and the girl there are personal students of Master Rein. Please tell the tired ones to rest and take the portions within the box, it is if higher grade than the forr, and Sir Grimm is coming with an army of hundred homunculi."
"A hundred?" Jon was rather concerned about the numbers he heard rather than the na, as he thought a hundred cannot make a difference.
"Don’t worry, I have seen their might, one of it has to be killed about a hundred tis before it can fiy die." He said smiling, with a manly smile despite barely being thirteen. He flew off his wyvern and withdrew two daggers from his waist as he neared the ground.
Arnette and Jon looked at each other.
"We should probably rest" Arnette said
"Yes" Jon said softly as he was running out of mana. The ring he was wearing vibrated and a voice rang out.
"Jon"
"Zolin?" Jon said.
"I have saved everyone"
"That easily?" Jon said.
"Yes...I t with the crown prince as he was here..."
"Oh, are you okay..."
"The Emperor is in Templain"
Jon’s eye widened imdiately, "You gotta be kidding ..." he said.
"We had a little chat, the empire will surrender" J
Jon gaze sharpened, "Zolin, I know how you feel but we can’t take the statent of the Crown prince that is at the capital when the Emperor himself is here with us on the battlefield." He said.
"I know...the crown Prince is on his way, and I have managed to block of the exits of the capital seating...I will take her on"
"Zolin?" Jon worriedly said.
"She’s my mother, I just want to talk things out with her" he softly said and turned off the communication ring.
Jon slapped his face softly.
"Oh God, things just got complicated..."
"I know" Arnette said with hostility coming out from him. Jon was firstly shocked but he traced Arnette’s gaze and saw Neza and Eztli join the fight and began to rcilessly murder soldiers.
"Arnette, don’t we are not in any mood to fight any one of them, we need to recover our Stamina and rest" he said.
"Well, more lives will be lost while we are recovering" he said and leapt off without waiting for Jon’s response.
"Oh damn!" Jon cried and sighed, "I guess victory doesn’t co easily afterall" he said and followed Arnette.
.....
Far in the skies, both dragons covered in their blood, the white dragon, a green coloured blood and the gold dragon bled a gold coloured blood. His blood itself was gold in its liquid form, that can be beaten into a tal.
"You are still strong despite being rumoured to be ssing your end" the white dragon said.
"No...you are just weak" the gold dragon replied as he panted slowly while standing of a mass of rock, that was floating.
’Damnit, if this continues, even if I end up killing him, I would be too injured and weakened, and a weakened dragon is prey to other dragons...it’s probably ti I retreat, as he didn’t notice’ The white dragon said in his head.
"Do you think I wouldn’t know?"
"Know what?" The white dragon puzzledly asked.
"That you are trying to make Tiamat reincarnate"
"...Ah so you caught on afterall"
"No...I just did, and it seems you are here with others" he said.
"One single step closer to them and the blue dragon will kill you"
Erindell flinched imdiately the white dragon ntioned the blue dragon.
"Aha, yes, you of all people should know... After the red dragon, he is the most powerful of us all, and unlike you, who is already weak and degraded, he just ascended to an elder dragon, thanks to the circle...they brought fed hik thousand of souls before he was finally able to ascend, you know right that a dragon can only ascend to an elder dragon on his third seven hundredth year, but the other way to do it is to consu a massive amount of souls, everything can be attained by using souls...so you will not be leaving here alive" ice cones ford all around the atmosphere as he concluded his statent
Erindell’s eyes widened.
"...Impossible..."
