Chapter 672: Capturing Bareham City - Part 1

Goldien looked up to the wall and saw a human wearing silver armor. The human looked down at him, but he could not see his face because covered by the helmet. However, Goldien could tell that the man was someone important in the city, and from the way the human dressed up, they were not going to surrender.

"I am Goldien, a General of the Tang Empire-" Before Goldien finished his words, Lord Berth cut him off. "There's no need to introduce yourself, Monster! We will not surrender to the monsters like you! We will fight for our honor!" Lord Berth raised his sword to the sky and shouted.

"I see. So that's your answer." Goldien raised his right hand and clenched it. That was a signal for his second Vice General to march forward with three thousand armies. Not long after that, the ground shook as the three thousand of beasts and beastmen rushed toward the gate.

Lord Berth was shocked by the number of the enemy, but he calmed himself down when he remembered that he was not alone. He signaled the squad of mages to shoot the fire. They would reduce the enemy's number with the magic attack before they face them head-on.

"Huh!?" Lord Berth waited for his subordinates to attack, but the attack never came. "What are you doing!? The enemy is coming closer! Attack now!" He looked toward the side where the mages gathered. He positioned two groups of mages on the left wing and three groups on the right wing, but none fired their magic.

"We can't use our mana, Lord Berth!" One of the mages shouted in panic. He could feel the mana inside him, but the mana dispersed when they were about to be discharged out of his body when he executed the skill.

"What are you talking about? You can't use your mana!? Are you joking with me?" The monsters' armies were drawing near to the gate, yet these fools were still playing around. Lord Berth then tried to use one of his skills and realized that he could not use the skill because his mana could not work properly. "What!? What happened?" He was panicking.

Of course, it was Goldien's Anti-Mana Domain. He activated the skill from the start to reduce the casualties. Yes, one of his jobs as General was to suppress the number of deaths.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The vanguard had arrived at the gate and slammed their fists toward the gate. The mages were still trying to cast their skills but to no avail. As the monsters knocked on the main gate, the wall shook slightly from the impact. The mages who could not cast their skills immediately left their posts and ran between their tails.

They were not that stupid to stay above the wall while they could not use the skill. If the monsters climbed up to the wall, they were dead for sure. So ninety-seven mages turned their backs against their wall and escaped. "Where are you going!? Come back!" Lord Berth called out, but the mages did not heed his words.

"Damn!" Lord Berth cursed out as he looked at the Golden Gator, who was still in the same position. He almost said they would surrender because fighting without mana was impossible to win against the monsters born with superior attributes. But Lord Berth swallowed those words back and as he came down off the wall.

'I finally could become a City Lord after years. I finally have a city for myself, and I will not give up just like this.' Lord Berth gathered his men below. "Get ready! We will fight the monsters and protect our city. Archer! Get in your position and start firing your arrows!"

'Damn! I should not replace those cowardly mages with my hunters.'

"Hah…. Hah…. Hah…." Viona's breathing turned erratic as she heard the booming sound from the gate. The fight had not started yet, but she had lost her breath already. This was her first time joining a battle like this, after all.

—Stupid! Calm yourself down, or else you will die the moment you meet with your enemy. Take a deep breath and release it slowly. Repeat it three times.

Lilliana was the one who got scared by watching this from the sideline. She did not know how strong the enemy was, but this woman would die any moment if this continued. She was afraid that Viona might freeze when she saw blood later. Viona followed the advice by taking a deep breath.

—You can't die now. We haven't fought the Revolution Army, and you haven't avenged your husband's death yet. Don't forget your son and daughter as well! Who will take care of them if you die?

Lilliana did her best to encourage Viona, so the girl would not do something stupid later. Viona calmed down a little bit under Lilliana's words, but she was still nervous even with two bodyguards that followed her. The man she made a deal with, summoning to beast spirits that would follow her on the battlefield, Feera the Chimera and Vera the Adolescent Stage Inferkost.

Boom!

That last boom was the sound of the gate being broken apart. "Charge!" With the word, Viona's body moved on her own and charged forward with the beast and beastmen.

—Just rush straight toward the backline and target the long-range enemy, or you head toward the wall.

Lilliana noticed the archers above the wall and guided the girl. The archer was weaker in close combat, and Viona could take that advantage.

—Don't forget your goal. You are here to increase your level.

Viona followed the advice as the monsters rushed toward the line of armored knights; she ran toward the stairs. She climbed up the stairs and met with her first opponent. There was an armored knight and three archers. Viona froze for a moment as she was not expecting to fight four people at once.

—What are you doing, Doofus? Do you want to die? Activate Guardian Shield!

Lilliana was angry that the woman froze when she met with the enemy. But his words woke Viona as she raised her shield and activated the skill.. The mana spread out from her shield, creating a barrier that protected her from the arrows.
