Chapter 132: The Fall (4)

Sherekan city was not a small one, as it had lots of guards and powerful people that lived there. You could say that it had the strongest people in all the Shukar Empire.

That was enough to fend against most invasions, and that was the reason the nearby empires and kingdoms did not attack it until that point, having the last known battle 60 years ago.

The Emperor was scared that someone would try to attack them, as the Shukar Empire was getting weaker and weaker as the years passed. A trace of that was the economy, who was completely broken.

Now, humans may have reasons to attack the empire, but monsters? No one knew where did that wave of monsters came from, or what was the reason for them to be there.

Was someone behind it? Or Sherekan city was just unlucky and impeded a monster migration?

These were the questions everyone wanted to know the answer to, and Arthur was one of those people.

Arthur had traveled the desert, and never saw that many beasts in the same place. For him, that army of creatures was the work of somebody else, and there was a fact that increased that possibility.

The devotees had a link with Arthur, and he could feel, and almost see, what they were seeing. He had these devotees spread throughout the desert, in different tribes, yet no one of them saw this horde of monsters.

It was as if these monsters spawned out of nowhere to attack the city.

“Maybe another dungeon appeared nearby? Just the one near Odemore?” Arthur thought.

Well, there wasn’t much time to think about these things, as the monsters weren’t staying still, and were dashing towards Sherekan with fierce gazes, looking for blood.

The horde had lots of different beasts, and some that did not belong to the desert region, which made Arthur think even more about that dungeon possibility.

“Everyone, prepare for battle! Protect the city. Sherekan can’t fall!”

One officer from the army yelled to everyone that was present there, trying his best to increase the morale of the troops.

Most people were scared, as they knew it was almost impossible to win the upcoming battle. Arthur was not one of these people.

“It is possible to win, and even if things go wrong, I can flee without problems.”

A line of warriors stood outside of the city, with their weapons and shields up, waiting for the enemies to come. There were also archers on the city walls, throwing arrows that took the life of a few beasts before they reached the city.

Both sides clashed, with the beasts using their claws, jaws and stingers to attack the warriors, who defended with their shields.

The number of warriors protecting the city wasn’t small, around 20000, but when you compare to the number of beasts that we’re storming against the city, it was a joke.

Arthur knew that the morale of the troops would eventually fall, and that would lead to the city getting destroyed. So, he opted to take the lead and show these beasts what actual power was.

He used his flight skill, stopping right above the warriors who were outside fending against the beasts.

Everyone that was present there was surprised, as they had never seen a warrior that could fly.

Arthur paid no attention and channeled his fireball spell. It wasn’t a powerful spell, but with the help of his sunlight energy, it turned into a devastating spell that would wipe at least 10 thousand of these beasts.

A huge magical circle with strange symbols appeared in the sky, and then an immense ball of flame got out of it, flying directly into the middle of the monster army.

He did not stop there, and cast three more. It was his limit, but that was enough to wipe 60% of the beast’s army.

The four immense balls of flame came crashing, turning thousands of beasts into ashes. No one could believe what they were seeing. It was a type of attack they had never seen before.

Who was that person behind it? How could they never know of him before?

Arthur proudly gazed at the destroyed beast horde, and yelled, “everyone, wipe out the rest!!!”

His voice had power behind it, and all warriors yelled together, rushing towards the remaining beasts, looking to kill them all.

Slowly, the beasts were diminishing, and they were almost certain the victory was on their side until another wave of beasts arrived.

More, and this time, it amounted to 200 thousand beasts, more than the first army. Now it was hopeless.

Arthur still had mana to cast more of those fireballs, but he was saving it to use his teleports if the fight was lost.

Wisa and Jane exchanged glances with him, and they knew what to do. The three of them ran from the main gate.

“What will we do, Arthur?”

“Let’s take this chance to steal all the books inside the school’s library and then leave. Also, there is a student there I have to save.”

The school wasn’t far, and within a few minutes, Arthur and his girls reached it. All the students were there, and the only person defending the school was the president, who quickly stopped Arthur.

“What are you doing here, Akhur?”

Arthur had not timed to waste, and even though the president had a higher level, he was not strong enough to fight against Arthur.

With his dragon transformation, all it took for Arthur to kill that man was a Fire Claw.

Everyone was shocked to see Arthur turned into some sort of beast, but he quickly returned to his normal appearance and went towards the library.

There, he grabbed all the books and tossed them inside his magical pouch. After that, he searched the school until he found Billy.

“Akhur? Did something happen? Some say you killed the president.”

“Yes, I did, but that’s because he tried to kill me first. Bill, listen. There are at least 200 thousand beasts outside, and the city will fall. Do you have anyone here that you want to bring along?”

“What? Ah, no. I’m all alone here.”

“Want to come with me?”

Bill accepted the offer, as he had a good impression of Akhur, and he also did not have other choice…
