Chapter 383 Retreat  "Tch.. Wind element." grumbled Moi.

Elemental mastery is one of the mastery to reach grade four as a combatant. Like weapon mastery or other mastery, elemental mastery also increases combatant battle prowess multiple times. However, elemental mastery also heavily relied on talent and the user's experience.

Wind elemental is one of the common elemental affinity in Firuman like the Fire elemental. Despite that, the wind element is famous for becoming one of the deadliest elements among others.

Theoretically, all of the elements could become deadly and destructive after the user managed to reach a certain mastery threshold. However, Wind elemental is easier to reach a state when the element becomes fatal since one of its characteristics is its sharpness.

If Fire elemental is famous for their explosiveness, wind elemental is famous for their sharpness. Hence, most assassins always have this type of elemental affinity. The wind elemental is very swift, silent, sharp, and hard to trace.

It is rare for someone to use it in frontal battle since wind elemental also has a massive weakness for their brittleness. Most of the time, wind elemental is applied to the user's weapon or part of the body to make it sharper.

However, because of the elemental wind properties, the applied part will be like not coated with mana. The part will be slightly stronger than its normal condition. It is almost like without being covered by mana.

Still, this weakness could be overcome by sending more mana on the parts that also consumed more mana than usual. 

Compared to other elementals, which enhance the endurance and hardness of the applied part, wind elemental has a significant weakness to be used in long-term battle.

As the battle goes on, the Wind elemental user will need to use more mana to protect their parts. Therefore, the Wind elemental user rarely uses their wind elemental in frontal clash unless it is a decisive attack.

Duke Faltos is a full-fledged fifth-grade combatant. It means he has a lot of mana enough to fight Moi for a while. 

However, Moi didn't have time to get entangled with Duke Faltos and needed to retreat as soon as possible before the Sur knights completely consumed all their mana. Still, Moi needs to be careful.

The wind element's major weakness maybe its brittleness, but it is also famous for its sharpness. If it were not because of Moi's absurd enchanted clothes, he would already be cut into pieces by now. 

As soon as half of the Fort Destroyer was cut into pieces by Moi, the Sur knights immediately retreated from the Traynia's soldiers' encirclement.

Unfortunately, the scattered Traynia's soldiers are already commanded and create a large giant net from everywhere during the Sur knight's assault. At the same time, on the top of the Thornbridge hold's wall, the detection unit also notices the destruction of the Fort Destroyer.

"Reporting, sir. Sir Moi and his Sur knight destroy the enemy's magic cannon successfully. Now, they are trapped inside Traynia's soldier encirclement." reported the nearby soldier.

"Good. Ivo, bring some of your men and rescue them!!" commanded Viscount Eagle.

"Finally, some real action. I already prepared my men a long time ago." said Ivo.

"Then, I leave them to you. I will prepare all the artillery and magician units to cover you." said Viscount Eagle.

"Hahaha.. Don't worry, I will definitely bring them back." said Ivo.

After saying that, Ivo immediately rides a Gryphon, a beast with the head of an eagle and the body of a lion. Behind Ivo, there are already a few more soldiers riding Gryphon on standby.

"Yosh.. Let's go!!" yelled Ivo before flying away.

As soon as he flies away with the other Gryphon units, dozens of knights also come out from the hold's gate riding a black scaled horse, Askar Horse. Askar Horse is a half beast and half horse famous for its speed.

They are mainly used by cavalry units to launch a fast assault on the battlefield. Soon, Ivo and his knights disappear on the horizon. However, the distance between Thornbridge Hold and Moi's unit is very far. 

It will take some time before they arrive at the battlefield, even with the help of a Gryphon that is famous for its flying speed. At the same time, Moi and Sur's knights enter a huge predicament. 

Their stamina and mana are already bottomed out. If it were not for the high-grade mana potion and their high-quality equipment, they would already have been eliminated long ago.

Moreover, unlike before, Duke Faltos began to attack using wind elements more frequently, making Moi more passive as he needed to dodge or parry his attack. Moi couldn't run around the battlefield as easily as before.

Moi's high enchanted clothes may be durable, but Duke's Faltos's wind element attack could penetrate them. The reason why his last attack is only to create small cuts is that Moi also has some protective barrier items.

Unfortunately, most of his protective barrier items could only be used once. Now, he can't get careless or will definitely cut into pieces. Wind elements are not only famous for their sharpness but also for their swiftness.

Most of the wind elemental users are famous for their speed. Hence, Moi needs a lot of precaution to battle against the silent enemy's duke. From their previous clash, Moi notices that his enemy is very vicious.

Duke Faltos only reveals his wind element when Moi is completely careless and focused on other things. People like Duke Faltos are similar to assassins and will never show all their trump cards at once.

Moi didn't know what kind of skills or ability Duke Faltos hid. But, his instinct warns him that if he gets careless once again, he may die without knowing. While Moi is preoccupied with the enemy's duke, the enemy general manages to corner the Sur knights.

The Traynia's middle-aged general, Marquis Roach, is a seasoned fighter and general. He could still command his army while fighting against three Sur knights. Moreover, the general often dragged the three Sur knights to his soldier.

They often almost get surrounded by the Traynia's soldiers without even noticing. A few moments later, all the Sur knights finally got tired and weaker. They are hardly able to break the encirclement.

As the Sur knight becomes more passive, "Magician unit, shoot your spells!!" commanded Marquis Roach.

The Traynia's magician begins to chant from far to use large-scale spells. Seeing this, Moi decides to interrupt them.

Just as he uses [Fire Assault] to get away from his enemy, Duke Faltos's twin sword detached into segments and became a sort of whip attached with thin wire.

Looking at Moi's back, Duke Faltos immediately brandished his whip swords despite being quite far away from Moi [Whip Sword art - Hidden Fang]. Like a sneaky snake, the detached blade easily reached Moi and slashed on his back.

Fortunately, Moi had already prepared for this and covered his body with [Flame Armor]. Still, the whip sword contained an incredible wind element and easily penetrated Moi's defense. *Slash* Blood spurted from Moi's back. 

Fortunately, Moi's body is flying forward from Duke Faltos's attack force and creates a large distance from him. Ignoring his injury and wounded in the back, Moi continued his charge toward the magician unit.

A moment later, he managed to force most of the magicians to cancel their spells. Magician below the fifth grade is like a glass cannon. Individually, they are weak since they cannot move during their spell casting.

Not every magician could cast while moving like Angus. Most of the time, magicians are vulnerable during their spell-casting, especially when casting high circle spells.

They could only instacast low circle spells to fight back, which is useless since Moi and Sur's knight's armor could hold ordinary low circle spells. In front of Moi, they could only cancel their spell-casting and escape. 

Even if some knights were protecting them, they could only hold Moi for a moment before dying. Therefore, it is common sense to stop casting and escape when a magician is targeted by a fifth-grade combatant like Moi.

Still, this is only momentary since the magician unit will immediately start their cast again as soon as they get away from Moi. At the same time, Moi is also still pursued by the enemy fifth-grade wind elemental user.

Each time Moi tries to get away from Duke Faltos, he gets more injuries from his enemy. Soon, his body is riddled with various kinds of big and small slashes. Blood keeps dripping from his wound, especially from his back.

Moi knew he couldn't receive the Duke's attack with his body. He could only dodge or parry them. However, his enemy's whip sword trajectory is weird and difficult to predict despite Moi's vast experience. Hence, he keeps getting more injured and getting weaker.

'Damn… Is this the end?!' thought Moi as the magician unit once again casts large-scale spells.

Just as Moi thought it was hopeless and needed to abandon his Sur knight, a sharp bird sound was heard from the sky. *PIIIAAAKK* Tens of Gryphons start to attack the magician unit.

"Reinforcement?! Artillery unit, shoot them down!!" yelled general Roach.

"RAAAGHH!! [Great Axe Art - Mountain Cleaver]." roared Baron Ivo while jumping from his Gryphon.
