"Captain! The Citizens had all entered the Kingdom, we must go now!"
Rakzu looked at his men who are still struggling in the front and frowned, it is not in his pride to let his men die, but if he also dies here, the soldiers under his command will be like a headless chicken, without anyone leading them, they would just be a brute force.
Rakzu felt a burning sensation in his heart, not knowing what to do.
One of the men fighting in the front shouted.
.
.
"Captain! don't worry about us! we'll hold them for you!"
"Yah! Don't worry about us."
"Captain, just remember to see who killed us and avenge us!"
"HAHAHAHA!"
"Well, Captain, bring the rest of our brothers inside and avenge us later."
"We will be going first, Captain!"
"You are the best captain around! Captain, at the rate of 10, you are definitely an 11!"
Although they were laughing, they just wanted to see their Captain safe, which is why they took some heavy damages just to shout those words.
Rakzu felt his chest tightened as he looked at the men in the front, he steeled his resolve as he ordered.
"Retreat inside the Kingdom's walls!"
"Yes!"
All of the men followed the orders immediately.
"Bombard the enemies with Magic!"
The Rakzswei users immediately nodded as they used their powers to provide assistance.
Sadly, Rakzswei users were limited, there is only about 1,000,000 of them, and more than half of those Rakzswei users were already employed inside the Empire's capital, the other half were scattered throughout the whole empire. and every kingdom would be happy enough to employee 500 Rakzswei users.
But for the Trunma Kingdom, with the large economy they have, they have employed roughly 2,000 Rakzswei users.
This is a great number, but faced with 100,000 strong enemies, it would be of little help as Rakzswei users were also limited.
.
.
Skills after skills, the Rakzswei users slammed their greatest skill to kill at least a few enemies.
The one leading the light cavalry charge looked at the wall as a smile formed on his lips and shouted.
"You are not the only one that has Rakzswei users! Barrier!"
After that man shouted, a lot of different type of elemental shields appeared above the Light cavalries.
"Some of the available Rakzswei users, open fire at any possible chance!"
Although a few, only a few hundred of elements flew out of the sky, counter-attacking the ones above the wall.
Rakzu finally got up at the top of the walls, what he checked first is the state of the soldiers he had left on the ground, but what he saw was nothing but the corpse of his soldiers, being trampled on by the light cavalries that were going to destroy the gates.
Rakzu closed his eyes as tears poured from them down to his cheeks and directly falling to the ground.
Opening his eyes, he immediately ordered.
"Ready your bows! Rakzswei users! A single unleash of massive skill! Wait for my order and hold!"
Rakzu looked at the people behind him and spoke.
"Cover our archers and Razkswei users, let them gather some of their power!"
"YES!"
The Knights heeded his order as they all scattered towards the front of the wall, lifting their tower shields up.
with the barrage of spells, the Knights fell one by one, although their shields were imbued with inscriptions and are of above quality grade, they were still overcome by the massive amounts of damage from the enemies' Rakzswei users.
Rakzu saw this scene, and every Knight that dies made his heart aching with pain, but when he noticed that the enemies are near, he immediately made his command.
"RELEASE! Blow these barbarians to whence they came from!"
"Woooah!"
A huge valley of arrows and spells immediately shot down from the walls down to the enemies.
The enemy's commander was shaken due to those massive amounts of spells assaulted their army.
Massive amounts of death can be seen every time that the valley of spells and arrows landed, but with rage in his heart, the commander still pushed forward.
"Charge! Let no man's death become in vain!"
.
.
...
Fifteen minutes had passed.
The Trunma Kingdom, Southern wall.
There is only a quarter of soldiers left in the gate, defending it with all of their life, around the number of 4,000 soldiers.
Gordon is a few meters away from where he charged before, he is also terribly wounded.
A lot of his Knights had already fallen, the elite troops were the only ones left, they forced the enemy's general, General Keewey back at the gates, preventing him from chasing Gordon.
A man then appeared beside him and spoke.
"Son, we are defeated."
Gordon looked at the one who spoke and found that it is his adopted father, Dammi, Gordon smiled as he looked at Dammi and replied.
"Father, at least, we died with honor."
Dammi nodded as he picked up a sword lying near to them, a sword from one of his fallen Knight.
"Father, are you thinking of fighting? hahaha, well, let me help you then, ugh!"
Gordon tried to stand up but was too heavily wounded to do so without a hitch, Dammi looked at Gordon and spoke.
"No, we've already lost, go to your Sister and prevent her from doing something irrational."
Gordon smiled as he asked.
"Father, so you`ve always known?"
Dammi nodded as he replied.
"Yes, I've had always known."
After speaking, four knights in black armor appeared beside him, Dammi looked at them and spoke.
"These are my shadows, the ones that had been protecting the two of you since young, I have five of them, but the other one is looking after Nyken from afar."
Gordon sighed as he shook his head and spoke.
"Father, I only have a few breathes left, I might not be able to reach her in time."
Dammi shook his head and replied.
"Go to the west gate, there are barely any enemies there, and I`ve already sent a few elite troops there, I`m already too old, Just give your sister something to remind us of."
Gordon smiled as he nodded, not resisting his Father's words anymore.
Then, one of the men from the Northern gate came and announced.
"The Northern Gate has fallen! Captain Rakzu is dead!"
All of the Knights fighting at the gates had heard the news, their morale immediately plummetted.
Dammi smiled as he looked at Gordon and spoke.
"Go now my Son, we will be meeting sooner."
After speaking, Dami lifted the sword and rushed towards the gate, the four shadow knights followed him and wielded their blades.
"Men of my Kingdom does not fall from any invaders! Even if we do! We will be no cowards to you!"
The Knights heard these words and immediately looked at where it came from and when they saw Dammi charging, their morals were lifted to the limits.
"Vengeance for our fallen comrades!"
"Kill a lot of these foul creatures before we die!"
"For the Kingdom!"
"For the King!"
"For the whole of our Empire!"
"CHARGE!"
