Slowly the enemy started to retreat, giving me the impression they felt the ground shaking underneath their legs.
It was a logical result of this battle. After all, and in the enemy’s eyes, they weren’t fighting a normal enemy, but an immortal one, one that couldn’t be killed.
Even if they killed part of my forces, in the next moment more forces would appear out of nowhere, replenishing the lost ones and making it look like not a single one fell.
That was indeed a scary thing, a very strong blow to their mental strength and morale.
But even with such unintended development, I didn’t rush things over and kept my forces at the rear resting for now.
After all this three million army wasn’t the last army coming here. There was still another batch coming, one in millions as well.
I had to keep my rear forces resting and prepared to join the fight at any given moment. And this happened just half an hour later.
This time I saw a much grander army coming in my direction. Damn! How come they brought more forces here?
But I had no time to think about that. This batch was chasing after a large force of mine, almost mounting up to one million strong, led by Lucas and his soulers.
The bad news was that this force of mine was going towards the direction of the hills, separated from them by almost two million enemy forces.
If they continued this way, they’d end up clashing with enemies from all sides. If they tried to flank the enemy, the two million forces here was big enough to detach a large force to corner my incoming ones.
One way or another, my forces were going to be crushed in the middle. I couldn’t let such a thing happen!
My mind spinned fast. The only thing I thought about was to call back all my soulers from the mountain direction and then resummon them again to keep the three million army busy.
And to make sure things were going smoothly without much trouble or unpleasant surprises, I thought about summoning my castle here to help.
“Attack!”
However, just before I’d done anything, I heard such a shout from far away. It came from the direction to my left, and when I spotted that direction, I couldn’t help but feel a little surprised before laughing.
“You came too early, and at such great timing as well!” The shout came from no one but Loran. I couldn’t help but marvel at the huge number of forces coming from that direction, going as fast as they could to clash with the grander incoming army of the enemy.
“Stop running and go to attack these folks,” I instantly changed my mind set and acted fast to adapt to such a great change.
Instead of letting Lucas lead my forces and clash with the three million army, it was better for him to lead the forces he led and aid Loran.
Yet that came at the expense of getting trapped in between the two enemy armies. The enemy needed just to call back his three million army and then Lucas soldiers would be crushed.
And that was exactly what happened in the next five minutes!
“Do you think you are the only ones with reinforcements? Humph! Come forth now!”
Even if Loran appeared with her grand army, it wasn’t enough to contend against the full throttle of the enemy forces combined.
So as the enemy called for his reinforcements, I also did the same.
The first thing to do was to call back the flying castle and my soulers. Then I summoned them again in the space between the great battle at the distance and the three million army.
One million stood in between the two enemy forces, with a terrifying flying castle standing on top of my soulers.
“Leave the hills, move forward and kill!” and just as the early lines of the enemy clashed fiercely against my soulers, I gave this order for my forces stationed on hills.
The three million forces here turned from the ones to help their comrades into playing the decisive factor in winning or losing this war.
If I managed to crush them first, then the enemy would lose. If they managed to slip by my blockade, the enemy would gain fresh blood and crush Lucas and his forces.
And that meant the enemy would gain the upper hand and I had a slim chance at winning.
So it came down to this fight down below, and as such I didn’t hold back anymore.
“Come forth!” I summoned another million soulers, to end up with most of them getting summoned. It seemed I already hit my limit, which was around three million forces.
And with the addition of these soulers, the situation started to slowly stabilise. I didn’t care about the nearby battle between Lucas and Loran and their men with the grand enemy forces led by many lords.
All my attention was focused over this fight down below. And with it, I left the chariot to my fallen gods and my other warriors to rain hell over the heads of many enemies and jumped down below to join the fray.
I still enjoyed this awesome feeling of fighting on the frontlines, killing enemies with my two hands. I held my dragon glaive in one hand, and my light glaive in the other.
And then I started wandering into the depths of the enemy, without any fear of anyone or anything. My two hands worked almost like crazy, creating flashes of afterimages one after another.
I made use of my enhanced speed to the most, moving around like a bolt of lightning, unstoppable, unchallenged, and killing anyone daring to come at me.
Gradually I reached the heart of this huge army. I lost count of how many I killed. Instead of continuing forward, I took a turn and returned in an oblique path back to the frontline.
