Chapter 25: Enemy Attack
Chapter 25: Enemy Attack
A few days have passed since they departed from the manor of the Earl of Hampshire city.
Earl Alfonso also swore to help his brother Blaire in the disaster that he was currently facing.
Like Earl Garen, he also showed a great fury after hearing what happened and immediately started preparations to aide his sworn brother.
At the same time, Kraftvoll and the others continued their journey to the royal capital, Stolz City. They can't afford to not waste anymore because of the impending dangers that may occur to them.
Fortunately, Earl Garen sent his second brother, Ross, to assist the two in the journey. Ross' seishin cultivation is in the rank of Lower Seishin Overlord, a rank that was one level lower than his eldest brother, Earl Garen.
In the few days of their journey, Kraftvoll and the others finally reached the border of the cities which was the Valkyrie forest.
Although the forest was full of seishin beasts, Kraftvoll and Belle's escorts were able to fend off them.
In their previous journey, when they were traveling with the Earl, no monster dared to attack them because Earl Blaire expanded his killing intent aura around his vicinity. That is why they were able to travel smoothly through these natural borders of various territories.
This time, although Ross can do it too, he chose not to do it so that they can avoid getting easily traced by the enemy. They knew there was an impending attack from the enemy. The only thing that they can do was to prepare well for the battle and have many cards to play.
The strongest soldiers in their escorts were only at the rank of Low Sage, a rank lower than Stark's seishin cultivation.
Despite all the events that transpired, Kraftvoll still didn't know the reasons for all of these tragedies that they had faced.
After all this time, he was still a kid, meaning that despite his mature mind, in comparison to his peers, he was still an ignorant child.
Meanwhile, as the Kraftvoll and the others expected, a band of soldiers of the demi-beast race was disguise while following them.
Before launching an all-out attack, a wind seishin practitioner from the enemy's side scouted the area around the carriage and its escort.
The demi-beast scout was able to identify all the cultivation levels of the people inside and outside the carriage.
The scout went back to report what he had scouted without knowing that one of them was masking himself to avoid people who can scan the surroundings.
Ross was a wind seishin practitioner, which is why he was able to mask himself using a wind spell to avoid detection.
But concealment spells were not detectable unless someone was in the rank of Majestic Seishin Demigod which is why even Earl Blaire was ambushed in the Valkyrie forest four years ago.
After the scout had reported what he had detected, the band of enemy soldiers started to move out to attack Kraftvoll and the others.
After a few minutes, they caught up to their target's carriages. At that moment, they started an all-out sneak attack.
As a result of this, half of the soldiers escorting Kraftvoll and Belle died.
"Enemy attack!" one of the soldiers that were escorting Kraftvoll and Belle shouted.
As soon as they heard this, the soldiers start engaging in battles with the pursuers.
The strongest among the pursuer, with a rank of Lower Seishin Royalty, a seishin rank lower than the Seishin Overlord, went to Kraftvoll's carriage and viciously said, "Kid, the Dark alliance has invited you to join our cause! Join us or die!"
Although Kraftvoll's can be still considered ignorant, he was still very smart in comparison to his peers. He suddenly realized the main reason why Schild City had been attacked by the Dark Alliance without any warnings or whatsoever.
Suddenly, Earl Garen's younger brother started a move. "Dazzling Punch!"
He used a high-speed punch that was capable of incredibly damaging the enemy.
This was a spell that can be used even without chant, but only high ranking light seishin practitioners were able to cast this spell without chanting.
