Chapter 103: Battle against the desert (II)


-Three minutes before the Human army arrived at the battlefield...

...

"Why would he suddenly jump towards that monster without even explaining why? And what's with those eyes he had at that moment... He seemed really different from the many other times I had seen him before..." Yuuki, who walked alongside Delbere, pondered with narrowed eyes, as she tried looking into the distance to see if the current battle between Aspen and the Sand elemental could be seen.

However, due to the enormous cloud of sand surrounding the battlefield, they had yet to be able to see anything from the battle between these two.

"I had seen him a few times before... But until now he didn't really seem that different from a usual guard. He didn't speak, nor did he show any emotions during my meetings with the King. Even during the [Clean-Up] he barely showed any emotion except that dangerous crazed smile of his that appeared while he was killing those criminals... So, since you have been the one more in contact with him, how is he as a person?" Delbere prepared some of his weapons so that he could attack immediately, and asked Yuuki without looking at her.

Yuuki, who was hearing Delbere speak, suddenly blushed lightly as her eyebrows furrowed, and he looked at Delbere with a displeased expression.

'Why does "Since you have been the one more in contact with him" sound so bad...?' Yuuki thought deeply in her mind. However, she soon put those thoughts aside and calmed herself down so that she could answer Delbere properly.

"As far as I know, aside from being a little arrogant, he doesn't seem to have ambition for anything besides money, as no matter how important on influential the positions are given to him were, his priorities were always to know how much was his payment... Also, he seemed to be some weird mix between being extremely lazy and being extremely diligent when it came to studying magic or training himself. I really can't understand completely how does his mind work..."

"He doesn't really sound like someone that would launch himself towards a giant monster of unknown power..." Delbere nodded a bit after hearing Yuuki's words while narrowing his eyes, but still continued walking without looking at her, and instead, continued trying to be able to watch what was happening inside the battlefield.

"Indeed, I was very surprised about it when he suddenly jumped out of the palace and rushed towards that strange humanoid monster... However, now that I think about it, his behavior seemed really similar to many other people that had come back from war or had faced traumatic experiences in the past. Either the fact that he became overly violent when dealing with those prisoners at the [Clean up], or right now when his entire personality seemed to have gone through a change, and he dashed without hesitation towards that monster, both of these situations seem really similar to many other people that just become incredibly violent depending on the situation" Yuuki narrowed her eyes as she reminisced many other similar cases like she had seen with Aspen after she joined the war personally.

"Well, humanity these days isn't really facing good times. We have yet to reach the level of progress we had back then before the Great War" Delbere just shrugged his shoulders and placed one of his weapons on his shoulder, as they were already arriving at the place of the battle.

A few minutes later, the leader of the archer squad raised his voice and warned the entire army about their situation.

"We are about to enter the sandstorm!! Open your eyes wide and pay attention to your surroundings!!"

""Yes, sir!!""

*Fuooooosh!*

The winds inside the sandstorm were ferocious, and although it wasn't something completely dangerous, it couldn't be hard for someone to get sent flying because of being watched out of guard.

However, right when the archers were starting to get prepared, suddenly terrifyingly loud explosions and shockwaves started reaching their ears and made them jump in surprise.

*Bam!!*

*Bam!!*

*Bam!!*

*Bam!!*

*Bam!!*

"W-what is that sound?" One of the soldiers asked in fear as he couldn't help but wonder what kind of being could be able to produce those enormous sounds. However, as they walked further into the storm, suddenly everything got clearer, and everyone present was able to watch carefully what was happening in reality.

The giant monster that they had seen just an hour ago, and that projected so much majesty and power, was now being mercilessly punched continuously without rest.

The beautiful appearance of a woman had long ago disappeared, and now it looked more like a humanoid being trying to conserve its shape without being blown away by the giant wood fists that were attacking it without mercy.

"Who is that?!" One of the soldiers noticed the figure of Aspen controlling the nearby trees and using them to punch the Sand Elemental, However, since the helmet was very big, none of them was able to distinguish his face properly.

Yuuki on the other hand, widened her eyes enormously as she watched the figure of Aspen using such incredible magic to such an advanced extent. Even at this distance, she was able to notice how much mana was that technique draining from him, yet, he seemed unmovable even while being under that pressure.

It wasn't until a few more seconds passed, that Aspen finally stopped punching the Sand Elemental and tried to recover himself by drinking a mana potion. Unfortunately, during these few seconds, the Sand Elemental managed to gather enough sand to recover the lost parts of her body and returned to her former appearance.

The obvious look of fury in her eyes, and the stirring winds filled with sand, made it obvious that the patience of this Elemental was starting to reach its limits 

((("I was saving this to turn that the Human Kingdom into nothing but a mere wasteland, but I guess I will have to use it against you if I want to get rid of you first... I will deal with them later myself")))

And as if to confirm what they were suspecting, suddenly the mana inside the giant body of the Sand Elemental started moving at enormous speeds, and an enormous sandstorm that seemed taken out straight from hell appeared behind her and started moving towards Aspen ready to engulf him and tear him apart.

[Eternal drought!]

It was at this moment that Delebere used the weapon on his shoulder and shot an extremely powerful projectile that blew off an enormous part of the Elemental's body.

*BOOOOOOOM!!!*

Delbere, who put his weapon aside after firing the projectile, looked at Aspen and smiled excitedly seeing that such a powerful human actually existed and had that much mastery over a type of magic.

"To think that a monster like him was acting as a mere guard all this time" Delbere laughed heartily thinking that such a man with the capability of destroying the entire castle at any moment was simply acting as a guard of the princess.

Yuuki was still in shock after seeing such advanced use of magic that she had never seen before. However, she still nodded nevertheless and agreed completely with Delbere.

'Where did a guy like him come from?' Was everything on Yuuki's mind right now.

-Back at the present

...

As the final battle between the enormous Sand Elemental and Aspen together with the army of humans begun, the entire battlefield turned into pure chaos as well.

Giant explosions surrounded the body of the Sand Elemental, as dozens of giant tree-fists punched heavily each part of her body at a vertiginous speed, and various shockwaves destroyed her body from the inside and blew large pieces of sand out of her body. While on the other side of the battlefield, hundreds of tornados moved rapidly through the landscape trying to eradicate the army of humans, aiming mostly for Aspen, Yuuki, and Delbere.

Unfortunately for the Sand Elemental, these three characters were beyond what a normal human could reach, and avoiding these tornados wasn't really a hard task. However, this wasn't exactly the case for normal humans like the soldiers that were doing their best to fire arrows at the creature without losing their life on the process.

Aspen, who was looking directly at the Sand Elemental in the eyes, squinted his eyes and prepared himself to start barraging her once again with Tree-fists.
