God of Tricksters

Chapter 446 - The Beginning

Theo and the others had stationed themselves in their area.

The forest was quite dense to go through, but there was a plain in the middle of the forest. This plain was used to build Wolf City that stood tall before their eyes.

Theo took a quick look at the city. The wall was made of stones and wood, while he couldn't see any watchtower or something for the wolves to guard this place.

He could see an open entrance from his position but nothing on the other side.

'Hmm, the wall isn't that high… Probably only thirty feet. It can be bypassed by the magicians. Though, there's only one entrance, according to the information. So, the wolves will come out from that place, I think. With a city of this size, it can only fit around a thousand wolves… So, we should be able to handle it, unless…' Theo thought for a moment as he gradually became suspicious.

"Isn't this a bit too quiet for a city?" Phyrill whispered as he glanced at Theo. Hearing him, Ellen also wanted to know Theo's thoughts.

"Yeah." Theo nodded and looked around. "I don't like this atmosphere. The wolves I faced so far were too aggressive."

"Maybe they were ordered by their king to do that? Meanwhile, the king hasn't realized we will ambush him?"

"Either way, we need to start this as soon as possible." Theo tapped Phyrill's shoulder twice.

"Okay. We will send the signal." Phyrill nodded and rose from the ground, finding his subordinate. He waved his hand and clutched his palm, asking him to relay the message to the soldiers so they could start.

When the soldiers received his signal, they confirmed it with the other side composed of independent groups. One of the chosen leaders quickly signaled them to attack.

After getting both agreements, the Supreme Rank Expert turned serious and nodded. "Tell the magicians to follow us."

As soon as they got the order, the military began to move forward, trying to form a shield for the magicians.

The Supreme Rank Expert raised his hand and waved it down as the signal to attack.

The magicians quickly used their skills, from a lightning strike to flame balls. All of them had powerful firepower that was capable of creating mass destruction.

"Lightning Zabs."

"Swirling Tornado."

"Ice Bolt."

The first volley of skills flew into the air, becoming the signal that this battle was about to start.

All of them flew past the walls and dove down, hitting many buildings.

Boom.

Boom.

Boom.

A series of explosions occurred, followed by many howls.

"Aoo!"

"Aoooo!"

All wolves were alarmed by this sudden attack. People could hear the rumbling sounds and the commotions inside.

The soldiers, aligned to the gate, could somehow see what was happening inside. Their expressions became serious when they saw wolves running to the entrance.

The Supreme Rank Expert quickly raised his voice, "This is the time to show the result of your training. Show all of the people here and those wolves what it means to be the proud soldiers of Thersland. I, Ivan, will be right behind you!"

"Uoh!" The soldiers stepped forward.

Theo frowned when he saw these guys. On the right side, he could see the people only used swords as their main weapon. On the left side, he found spears as their main weapon.

Only those in the middle that didn't have so many people actually had other weapons such as claws, war hammers, and other things.

Seeing the wolves begin crawling outside their city, the atmosphere started to change. The soldiers clenched their weapons tightly before they started roaring.

"Uah!"

"Uargh!"

That shout was as if telling others, "Screw it," as they ran toward the wolves. It took courage to face so many wolves after all.

Clink.

Clang.

The clashing sounds between the two sides echoed in everyone's ears.

The wolf's fur had various colors covering their body, symbolizing their species.

Theo furrowed his eyebrows when he saw how easily the soldiers got bitten by the wolves because there was no room to move. The wolves also started dying when they lost their balance once.

He only had one thought in this situation.

'It is chaotic.'

He had seen something like this in the expedition with Alea, but the Eilric Family and the military had done a great job maintaining their positions, giving them enough space to move.

"No wonder we are separated. If we join them, they will have less space to work with." Theo muttered and shook his head helplessly.

More and more wolves came out of the city, overpowering the soldiers with their sheer number.

Seeing the situation, Ivan shouted to the magicians, "The flare!"

While using all their skills, the magicians also received flares from the soldiers.

Two of them activated the flares as the signal for the right side, the independent groups.

"It's time for us to shine." One of them shouted while charging toward the wolves from the side. "We're going to make a good swipe from the side!"

"Ooh!"

They all saw the wolves were occupied by the military, so they didn't have the time to react to their charge.

"Kill them!"

The group was mostly close combat fighters, so they advanced with their mobility and flexibility in handling the wolves.

If they couldn't kill one, they just kept going, breaking through the line filled with wolves.

This technique had been popular since ancient times when cavalries disrupted the enemy's formation by a quick charge from the side.

And the effect of this strategy was apparent when the individual groups managed to break through all those wolves, killing many wolves while losing only one person.

Phyrill's group had been standing by this whole time and their eyes intertwined with the other group as soon as they made it out.

Both Phyrill and the one in charge of the other group exchanged a nod.

"It's time for us to shine, Hilbert Family! Follow me." Phyrill shouted and pulled out his short swords. He led the entire group from the very front and transformed into his Lycanthrope form.

His subordinates followed right behind him. Some even tried to overtake him so as to provide a cover to protect their young master.

Meanwhile, Theo was staying beside Ellen, saying, "You don't need to do anything for the time being. There will be a much bigger role for you later."

"Okay." Ellen nodded. "I will just follow you."

Theo nodded with a smile. "I guess it's time for me to kill a few wolves."
