"Oh! It seems that the king of the Wolfenstein Kingdom is planning to get his own hands dirty in this battle? I'm liking this!" Destrian excitedly exclaimed as his normal human eyes suddenly turned into a reptilian-like retina, glaring intently towards the happenings on the battlefield.
"Hmmm... He looks formidable enough. To actually be participating... not bad."
The burly man beside Destrian, who was the highest-ranking general within the New Dragon Empire, commented as his draconic eyes raised a 'brow', "But, he is being too cocky..."
"Eh? How so? It seems plausible by the looks of it hehehe. Sometimes, it's fine to take pride in your own capabilities you know?" Destrian jokingly asked as the general replied.
"He's bringing only a few hundred soldiers from his side and a there are over a hundred thousand enemies. Let alone them having to face the rear army... Haven't you noticed the insignia on those people your Imperial Highness?" the general added as he pointed towards the army behind the Garudia Kingdom.
"If I am not mistaken, this should be some quarrel by the Wolfenstein and our loving neighbor, the Garudia Kingdom? Hmmm... That symbol, Bainzen Empire? Oh... now this became a lot more interesting. It seems that our neighbor had made few friends while we were busy huh." Destrian laughed mockingly. The general intently gazed towards the unmoving figures of those that belonged to the Bainzen Empire.
"I am feeling skeptical about their presence here. They were never the 'helpful' type...'
...
Feihren did not immediately rush towards the enemy. Instead, he made sure that the Wolfenstein troops were perfectly aligned on his sides, forming into the shape of an arrowhead. There was no point in pushing and battling into melee when they can...
*Bang!
A clanking sound pierced through one of the soldier's chest plate. The man looked dumbfounded by the sudden cold sensation that penetrated his chest. Suddenly, a loud thud was heard as the soldier fell lifeless on the ground...
"It would take a while if I do it like this..." Feihren immediately switched the AKM's settings into its 'Full-auto' firing mode, instantly increasing the RDS. He grinned with satisfaction, "Hmmm... How about now?"
Feihren aimed down the barrel towards the Garudia army.
Seeing this, the soldiers of the Garudia Kingdom immediately dispersed to the sides as they charged forth towards the soldiers of the Wolfenstein kingdom that were just standing motionlessly beside their king.
It would be utterly pointless to wait for ranged reinforcements when the enemy king could easily pick them off one by one without them being able to fight. Although they have braced themselves as they powerfully charged towards the enemy...
Seeing the mysterious weapon of the Wolfenstein Kingdom's king, they could not help but shudder in fear. It was something that was totally unknown and mysterious to them, and seeing how that thing could easily kill them, they tried to avoid confronting Feihren as much as they could.
The sound of the AKM going full force resounded throughout the clashing frontlines as the Garudia Kingdoms soldiers charged towards the Wolfenstein Army. One by one the enemy dropped like squatted flies. As each bullet resounded, and the clanking noise appeared from the armor that was pierced through like butter, each body of the enemy that fell would create a blockade to fend off the charging army.
"Well, I guess it's all your turn now."
Feihren casually smiled towards his own troops as he led the charge. It was enough to thin out the numbers and make them get so close to the towers that the Wolfenstein Army had a safety net in case something unexpected happens.
Although heavily outnumbered, the space within the valley narrowed the battle into a reasonable range, allowing the Wolfenstein Army to fight at their best without them worrying too much on being ganged up by multiple enemies.
One of the commanders on the frontlines led a condensed charged on the western side of the Wolfenstein's formation. Because of this, they were successful in pushing back the Wolfenstein troop a little, as Feihren commanded them to fall back.
A grin appeared on the eager commander's face. He believed that it was quantity alone that would bring the downfall of the Wolfenstein army within this war. But in the next instant, a loud zapping noise spread throughout the area as the glowing tip of a gigantic tower emitted a powerful beam towards the Garudia soldier who had 'successfully' stepped within its range.
*Boom!
The bodies of the soldiers turned to dust as they made contact with the beam. A smoldering crater appeared below their feet as the commander hurriedly fell back. He was scared witless as he immediately retreated away from the towers range. But it was a little too late...
Multiple beams zapped towards every enemy that had stepped within the towers effective range.
Although some of them had successfully gained distance and returned to the flanks of their allies, a near miss from the tower still dealt a heavy blow to them. Either their armor was melted as the heated metal painfully congealed on their skin, or the beam randomly fired towards the direction on one of their limbs, painfully burning it off their body.
"Ah... Old chief is as impressive as always..."
Feihren had a satisfied look on his face as he heard a voice within his consciousness,
'Your Majesty, I am done with the Imperial troops that had made their way near us. Should I proceed in attacking the right flank?' Lucy asked Feihren as she proceeded with caution. Not doing anything that was not within the bounds of Feihren's order.
Feihren, seeing that most of the Garudia soldiers were trying to gain quite a distance from the western valley as to avoid the deadly tower's range, grinned as he instructed Lucy.
"Hmmm, could you block in those that are trying to back away? Kill those that are wandering too far away from my location. Isolate the battle towards me."
"As you wish, Your Majesty."
Drawing out the cold longsword, Lucy burst forth as she started hacking and slashing her way into the backlines of the Garudia Kingdom's troops. Although the spread of the enemy was quite wide, her ability to soar high above them to gain the best vision was akin to a death god picking off ants that dared cross the line.
Feihren then changed into his Titan Armor to join the fray, as he noticed the large chunk of red dots within his [Battlefield Scan] started moving in the opposite direction. The middle sector of the united army started moving further west as the imperial troops moved further to the sides...
"...Shamelessly... escaping?"
