Chapter 368 - Mariana City, Ross Family
At the same time, in the North Kingdom, Helmfirth City, on the battlefield where the beasts and humans were slaying and fighting with each other. The 10 m (32 ft) high wall was still stood firm against the many attacks from the beasts.
Although the wall was looked fine, the people on it were looked worried as they noticed a certain small hole was formed from time to time due to the repetitive attack in the same spot from the beast.
The people were hopeless as when they threw their spells at them yet, not only those beasts did not retreat, their attack became fiercer, turning their worry into fear.
Meanwhile in the front of the gate, the soldiers were seen holding their shields tightly, blocking and preventing those beasts from advancing into the broken gate behind them while the mages were standing in the rear, chanting a massive barrier that protected those ferocious claws from destroying the soldiers' shields.
"Soldiers stay on your feet! Mage, keep healing and chanting the barrier spell, we only need to hold this for a moment!"
A general stood with his armor among the mages and the soldiers, looking at those beasts from the small gap on his helmet. There was a long spear ready to pierce at the beast at any time on his hand.
Those uncountable beasts kept swarming at them like a bee, making the people on the wall shiver looking at their larger teeth and jaws that kept pouncing on the golden barrier.
"Hold tight!" The general commanded, trying to awaken the morale of his soldiers as he could see his soldiers' mentality was slowly drained upon watching the scary scene before them for a long time. Their legs started to tremble due to their wild imagination, thinking what if the barrier was broken.
ROAR!
A bigger beast suddenly came into view, bigger than the others and charging at the formation at full speed with its four legs, causing a terror by roaring the soldiers on the ground and on the wall.
Upon noticing one of his soldiers could not hold on anymore, the general suddenly leaped forward from the crowd, stepping on the soldiers' shoulder and fearlessly charging at the incoming beast who had a massive body.
"Break the formation, and move forward!" At the same time the general roared as his feet and arms already looked swollen and redden due to using the swordsman skill.
"HA!"
After the general commanded, the turtle formation immediately broke apart, changing into a spear-head formation that swept the beast in one line while kept following behind the general, like a spear thrust into the enemy formation.
"Mage, boost me!" Looking at the general that was already dodging in agile and fighting with the larger beast, a young man suddenly came out from behind those mages. The young man had short brown hair and green eyes, glaring at the mages with an unfriendly gaze.
"Kid, stay behind!" A male mage couldn't help but feel annoyed by his attitude. Of course the rest mages stayed silent as they were also displeased with his attitude.
However, before he continued to scold him, a strong burst aura of 1st class swordsman came out from the young man's body, simultaneously many wooden long swords appeared in the thin of air, hovering beside him.
"Give him the boost," As the mages were still shocked by the young man's strength, a majestic and indifferent voice was heard from behind. When they turned around, half of them immediately wanted to kneel yet were stopped by the voice owner.
A young lady walking from afar with her majesty blonde hair tied neatly, wearing light armor and walked with a faint smile as she looked at the young man.
"Your highness!" Those mages greeted simultaneously, did not dare to be late, and showed disrespect.
"My father and my uncle have told me that the battlefield is already secured. I think we can use this moment as a training ground to sharpen the young generations' ability."
As the young lady spoke, those mages behind her did not dare to refute like before as they already chanted a spell, summoning the natural light around them that slowly transferred into and enveloped the two youth.
"Thanks, Eliz, " The young man replied calmly. Soon, the pressure he released dwindled along with the unity of several long wooden swords into one big sword floating in mid-air and instantly flashed.
BAM!
The huge wolf beast fighting with the general far away suddenly fell to the side with a huge wooden sword was found splitting its body in half, scaring the other beast and shocking the general and his subordinates.
Their eyes unconsciously traced the source and found a young man was looking in their direction with a frown and stretching his arms.
"Compared to him, my power could only scratch his barrier!" Several months have already passed since Desmond and his family's rebellion began. Clark now already shocked the people of the North Kingdom including his rival, Matson.
He suddenly reached 1st class mage, at the same time his swordsman class has entered a middle stage! He was regarded as a dual-class genius and a rare talent among the young generation!
However, not many people like him as he was famous for bootlicking with their princess. Most of the people still thought it was due to the help of their princess he could reach this point.
....
Regarding Desmond and his family, not only did he kill the grandmaster, but many of the higher up suspected Desmond was also the mastermind of this beast horde. The event was too coincidence, those beasts suddenly began rampaging and strangely they also targeted the Helmfirth city.
Meanwhile, when Elizabeth heard Clark mention that person, she suddenly flinched. Her gaze wandered around the blue sky as many memories flashed on her mind.
The scene where Desmond broke the siege of experts and successfully rescued his sister was vivid in her mind. The image then slowly overlapped with Clark, that was massacring the beasts.
However, there was a big difference in their strength and personality. You're not his match, for now, she thought and shook her head.
People said a first love was the hardest part to forget and will permanently be imprinted even after the marriage. It was true; Desmond did many evil things, killing a Grandmaster, slaughtering the demons and the humans. Her heart also could not accept him anymore, yet...
Why does my heart keep beating loudly? I should not think about him anymore! She retorted inwardly. The more she thought about Desmond, the more he became more charming and handsome on her mind.
The feeling as if she was bewitched by his ruthlessness and the firm look in his eyes. It was dangerous, but that also excited her to meet with him again.
....
While the North Kingdom was busy dealing with the beast, in Imperial Empire territory, in the Marina City, the city controlled by the famous Duke from Ross family,
In the Ross family residence, in the certain room where the room had a small throne and many expensive stuff hanging on the walls; a middle-aged man was seen lying weakly on the ground, wearing only common leather pants with his upper body was seen had a deep cut and a triangle-shaped magic crystal stuck on the chest. His hair was disorganized and his face had many bruises on.
"Speak the truth and your life will be spared, where is he?" On the small throne, sat a young lady as her slick black hair falling like a waterfall and reaching the butt was elegantly untied, adding the charm of her overall appearance
Despite her beautiful figure, bright magenta eyes staring deeply at the middle-aged man, giving a cold and ruthless sensation as if she was no doubt she would kill him anytime.
"Hehe, stop this nonsense and kill me. I will never betray young master for the rest of my life!" The middle-aged man snapped and mocked the young lady.
"I found you not far from the border, if not for my grandpa saving your life, you've already become a slave of noble. Instead of repaying our gratitude, you even threatened me. I just asked where and who is your master because I can find a familiar trace of energy on your body.
"Now looking at your reactions, I'm sure your master was the person I've talked about," the young lady paused for a moment, she gazed at him indifferently, however deep inside of her gaze there was full of determination and curiosity.
On the other hand, the middle-aged man flinched upon hearing her words as if she was telling him he was guilty and ungrateful
But, he suddenly realized this might be her trick; this way she tried to manipulate his mind telling him she knew his master, and had a close relationship that eventually led him to reveal the fact.
Upon knowing her tricks, the middle-aged man then tried to raise his head and gazed at the young lady with a look of determination.
"How troublesome," Looking at that look, the young lady became annoyed but then sighed. She looked at him again before shaking her head," Call Marely, I need his spell to spill out this person memory,"
The young lady looked at the empty air beside her, there was a small bug hovering in the air upon a closer look. At her words, the small bug suddenly blinded with a light, revealing a human figure with butler clothes as he bowed to the lady, "Yes my lady."
