In another area, both forces’ wings .
Our Allied Forces’ cavalry is engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy’s cavalry .
Our cavalry was nearly double the size of the enemy’s . But we actually didn’t have the upper hand .
“Shit, how annoying the light infantry is!”
Rozel used their light infantry to make up for their cavalry .
Although, the light infantry cannot compete with the cavalry
But they still make up for the shortage of combat power .
Our cavalry was divided into two parts .
One is the Equus cavalry, which took charge of eliminating the enemy’s cavalry and infantry .
The other part is led by Roswald and is in charge of defeating the enemy’s elephants .
“Kill the elephants first! Let the fucking cavalry and infantry alone!”
While trying his best to control the horse that got hysterical by the elephant’s smell, Roswald aimed at the elephants’ weakness and threw the explosive spear .
The explosive spear pierced through the thick skin of the elephant .
Then, it exploded as the elephant .
After a blood rain, Roswald’s cloth was nearly drenched with elephant’s blood .
With a deafening noise, the elephant slowly fell down .
The rest of the cavalry under Roswald also threw their spears . Elephants began to fall into the ground one after the other .
But Roswald frowned .
“How strange . The rest of the elephants should be panicked and become unable to move . ”
But the other elephants ignored the noise of the explosive spears and moved forward continuously .
Both horses and elephants are very sensitive . Normally, they will be agitated by the noise of the explosive spears . Maybe some of them are special and fearless .
But it is impossible that none of them got affected by the explosion .
Actually our own Equus cavalry was also affected by the noise, and are now struggling with fighting near the elephants and converging with the rest of our cavalry . Although, they could still fight with the enemy cavalry and light infantry .
“Maybe, a curse…”
Roswald wondered . Although he was right, had no way to prove it .
Rozel had already known that the Allied Forces are good at using explosive spears . The horses and elephants will be frightened by the noise and fire caused by this new weapon .
Obviously, they had done some special preparation for it .
Their sorcerers, led by Mari, fed these animals with drugs like marijuana and put some curses to keep animals in mania, which can make them become fearless of noise and fire .
But even so, we, the Allied Forces, still gradually gained the upper hand .
After all, we have a stronger cavalry . Once the enemy runs out of their elephants, they will fail .
All that remained was to surround the enemy with our Allied Forces’ cavalry before General Curiu charges through the center . Thus, the heavy infantry has an important role in stopping General Curiu .
That is the key to victory .
「■■■■■!!!!」
「■■■■■!!!!」
But suddenly, the ground began to shake fiercely and the sky was nearly covered with dust .
The 40 elephants in Rozel’s main force started charging towards us .
It seems that Rozel is giving up their slave troops and is focusing on destroying the center of the Allied Forces first .
But, it’s impossible!
“Nothing to fear!! Kill these fucking elephants!”
While encouraging our soldiers, I changed the formation .
I commanded the light infantry to charge forward while the heavy infantry retreats further back .
We shortened the distance with the elephants through this new formation .
I swung my sword as I charged past an elephant . Behind me, the elephant fell down .
I cut off its legs perfectly in half .

Most Adernian soldiers had been farmers . In agriculture, teamwork is very important .
That’s why Adernians can keep order even in such a dangerous situation .
Instead, most Gallians belong to the nomadic society . Nomads have no fixed homes but move from region to region to secure their food supply .
They prefer to work alone .
“Should I have joined in the battle with the elephants?……No, I shouldn’t . ”
Curiu looked at the elephants that ran back, with their dead beastmasters still on them .
It looked like all the elephants had fell into panic .
Imagine a troop of elephants charging towards the Rosyth army together with General Curiu . Once he lost control of the elephants, there was a high risk that the elephants would run back and trample their own soldiers to death .
It’s very risky .
So General Curiu ordered to kill the rest of the panicked elephants and then prepared to charge towards the Allied Forces once again .
“Well, the elephants were enough to break the enemy’s formation . ”
Curiu thought to himself then turned back towards his troops and said:
“Soldiers, victory!”
A long speech is unnecessary . A single word is enough .
“Charge!!!”
All of Rozel’s 30,000 soldiers roared and charged towards the enemy .
“Come on!”
I commanded our light infantry to retreat .
Although there were still a few elephants that remained, we had to first deal with General Curiu, who can’t be stopped by just the light infantry .
“Hurry up!”
Our soldiers reformed the formation in a flurry .
Can we make it?… No, a little late .
We need to do something!
“Ron, Gram, Muzio, go!”
“Yes brother!”
“Got it, my king!”
“Leave the support to me . ”
I led the elites guards to the frontline .
We try to stop General Curiu and reform the formation during this period .
Maybe it’s a little dangerous, but we had no choice .
“Fight!”
Raising my sword, I rushed towards General Curiu .
As far as I know, General Curiu is a really valiant soldier .
He is riding a strange monster . It seems to be a dragon .
But both I and my horse, Sakura, showed no fear against it .
“So you are King Almus . How young! But I’m sorry, you’re going to die at this age . ”
Curiu said something . But unfortunately, I don’t know the Gallian language .
“General Cuiru! Today is the end of your legend!”
Our swords collided with each other again and again . My sword is made of Dragon Damascus . It’s strange that General Curiu’s sword still hasn’t been cut off in half . In other words…
“It’s made of Dragon Damascus!”
We said something together .
Even though I didn’t understand what he said, he probably thought the same as me .
“Die! Curiu!”
“Go to hell! Almus!”
Our swords collided again .
“It looks like you also have a Divine Blessing . ”
“Furthermore, the Divine Blessing is for strengthening combat power, right?”
It’s the first time for me to fight against someone with the same Divine Blessing .
However, General Curiu seems to be on a higher level due to having more experience .
But Ron and the others make up for my shortfall .
“Shit! You’re really mean, King Almus!”
“Although I don’t know what you said but……there is no fairness on the battlefield!”
Ron stabbed with a spear towards Curiu . The two of us attack at a short range .
Gram ang Muzio attack with their bows and arrows .
But even in such a difficult situation, General Curiu could still dodge our attacks, probably with the help of the Divine Blessing .
However, he will surely reach his limit .
“Protect General Curiu!
“Support! Hurry up!”
Our elite guards also fight fiercely against Rozel’s .
Both sides had been strengthened by Divine Blessing .
It seems as if no side will be defeated .
But, after all, we have fewer soldiers . We will be surrounded at this rate…
“Hurry up!! I’m sorry, my King!! Please excuse me for coming late!”
“My King! Please take good care of yourself!”
With the arrival of Bartolo and Tony, it seemed like our strategy of buying time was successful . ”
We have warded off the impact brought by the troops of Curiu .
Our 13,000 heavy infantry started fighting against 30,000 of Rozel’s troops .
The heavy infantry has a stronger defense than the Gallians .
“Forward! Kill the fucking Adernians!”
“Fuck away, you Gallian son of a bitch!”
The battlefield was full of swearing .
I won’t fail too!
“Die! Curiu!”
I swung my sword towards Curiu’s head, but it was defended by his sword .
At this moment, Ron stabbed his spear . In a spray of bright red blood, he left a deep wound in the waist of Curiu .
Staring at his clothes drenched by blood, General Curiu frowned .
Meanwhile, two arrows from Gram and Muzio flew towards Curiu .
One targeted Curiu’s head, the other towards his heart .
There was no space for Curiu to avoid .
“Let me help you!”
A blonde woman appeared and entangled the two arrows with threads from her fingers easily .
“Nice to meet you, King Almus . I’m Alice, the one who will kill you . ”
I saw a flicker of light .
I lift my sword to guard against it .
Something hit it and fell on the ground, it was a needle .
“Not an assassination this time?”
“I was originally going to do that, but General Curiu was in danger . ”
Hearing Alice’s words, General Curiu apologized .
“I’m so sorry! Alice-dono . ”
“Never mind . ”
Then they turned to me .
“Let’s move on . ”
Alice said that in Adernian language and then she raised her knives towards me .
I parried her knives with my sword .
Immediately, General Curiu’s huge sword charged towards me .
I hurried to avoid it .
“Ron! You’re in charge of the blonde!”
“Got it! Hey, I’m your opponent!”
Ron tried to suppress Alice with his spear, which was entangled by Alice’s threads .
Soon the threads reached their limit and were cut off .
Alice tried to defend against Ron’s spear with her knife .
But it was also cut off easily .
“Well, it seems that your spear is also made of Dragon Damascus . So is mine . ”
Alice pulled another knife from her sleeves .
It’s called a kukri knife .
The battle between us four intensified .
Although Curiu and Alice were more skillful, with the support from Gram and Muzio, we leveled the situation .
We gradually gained the upper hand .
While General Curiu was trapped in the middle, the Allied Forces had the chance to reform the army .
During this time, the cavalry from the left and right wings gradually surrounded the Rozel army .
However, until the cavalry has finished surrounding the enemy, the middle troops had to try their best to contain the main force of Rozel .
There’s a possibility that we will be annihilated before the formation is fully complete .
The war fell into a stalemate .
It’s like a bowl of water filled to the brim, just one stone is all it takes for it to overflow .
As the battle is getting more intense, the rain is falling harder and harder .
My clothes are drenched, my face is completely wet with either sweat or rainwater .
But even so, I still have to concentrate fully .
Or I will fail .
“En!”
General Curiu collapsed first .
It’s thanks to the wound from the arrow caused by Gram and Muzio .
My sword bore into Curiu’s shoulder .
Blood spurted out .
His face clearly shows agony .
“I won’t let you interfere with them!
Ron stopped Alice who was going to save Curiu .
Alice stared at him angrily and fought back with her kukri knife .
I intensified my attacks and relentlessly pursued Curiu .
Though my attacks would be blocked by Curiu’s big sword, his movements were not as sharp as before .
Extensive blood loss has drained Curiu’s strength, his superior physical ability declined .
Gram and Muzio couldn’t dare miss this chance .
They both released their arrows towards General Curiu .
Good chance!
But…
“Crap!”
The two arrows were stopped by a blackhaired woman .
I’ve met her before in my monarchical succession .
Witch Marin .
She stood with a short bow in her left hand and an arrow in her right hand .
“I was worried and came here . It seemed that you can do nothing without my support . How incompetent my son is…”
“Mo . . mother . ”
“Call me sister!”
Sister or mother, please decide clearly . “
Marin and Curiu spoke in Gallian language .
“Drink it . For analgesia . It’s a drug . Just a small dose, it won’t be a problem . . ”
“Than . . thanks… come on! Let’s fight together! Melon-dono!”
“Well, if you like…”
Marin smiled and started chanting
It’s Japanese!! f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m
“Open the gate of hell . Come to the real world . Your pain will be mine, my pain will be yours! Your pleasure will be mine, my pleasure will be yours . Your death will be mine, my death will be yours . Your life will be mine, my life will be yours . Your is my revenge . The red thread between us will go beyond the world . ”
She is . . a Japanese?!!!”
“Let fly together! Let’s conquer the world! We will be omnipotent together . You’re the wolf and I’m the bailuyuan(white deer) . The two of us are one, one completes the other, my better half . ”
Marin chanted . There is cold air rising up .
It’s the song of death, a song that cannot be sung by humans .
In order to stop her chant, I rushed towards her frantically .
However…
“I won’t let you get in the way . ”
“Shit!”
General Curiu swung his claymore . After the drug, he got stronger than before .
“Gram, Muzio! Shoot her!”
The two released their arrows towards Marin .
She stopped the arrows with her right hand .
Her hand was pierced by arrows . Marin frowned .
However…
She pulled out the arrows out calmly . And her wound self-healed in a second .
Then she chanted again .
“Right here, come down . ”
After her chant, the atmosphere changed .
Her eyes turned sharper . It’s as if somebody is possessing her .
“Almus, give in please . I don’t want to kill a fellow from the same town . If we work together, it is possible for us to find a way to go back to Japan . ”
“I’m sorry but I can’t . I am not willing to come back . Moreover, I have killed so many people since arriving here . Now I have no choice but to step forward . ”
“Yeah…”
Marin seemed a little sad .
”Too bad . I have also killed a lot of people, just like you . I can’t stop here . For my dead husband’s sake, I have to keep moving forward . If you won’t be my friend then, you will be my enemy . ”
Marin smiled and raised her short bow .
“I’m sorry, but your two archers and I are different . They are still too young and simple . ”
