Chereads / The Spriggan Who Became The Fairy King / Chapter 11 - The Unforeseen Attack Part 1

Chapter 11 - The Unforeseen Attack Part 1

Battle still rages at Hecceitas as Zylvyr and his friends still defends the southern part of the City.

Many fairies are wounded in the fight and many more will be injured if the attack doesn't stop.

The dragon who seemed to be leading the monsters stopped talking and continued the attack on the City.

"Guild Master, what do you mean by thing getting hairy?" Asked Zylvyr

His guild master faced him and talked seriously.

"Earlier I told you guys that that thing isn't the black dragon, but that aside it's still a dragon and if we don't kill this instant, the City as we know it will no longer be on the map."

Everyone knew that what Gethrude said was right. If that dragon wrecked more havoc the City will be destroyed that is why they need to kill it now

"Okay then what's the plan guild master?" Zylvyr asked

"Come on my friend, you already know my name and guild master is too formal for my taste."

"Well that aside, we need to barrier to keep the monster at bay."

"I've already contacted Lord Kufa, reinforcements on the way. We just need to hold them off until they arrive."

"Okay then, Zylvyr would you mind handling the strategic blah blah blah."

"Strategizing isn't really my forte, So if you would please handle the strategizing part." Gethrude stated

"Okay, will do." He replied

Zylvyr acted swiftly and commanded his allies.

"Guys, I need you to gather the other fairies. We'll keep those monsters at bay."

"Alicia, Helvy gather the ones you uses magic. Make them cast Wall of Tempest at the entrance of the gate."

"Adeltrude, Gather the Assassins and Rangers. Let them stand by at the front of the Mages."

"Aram, you gather the Tanks and the Fighters. You guys are the frontline, If the breaks get ready to hold them off."

The Fairies nodded, They acted swiftly and executed Zylvyr's commands with lightning speed

Zylvyr casted a spell "Austr Drott" that spell was Telepathy it enabled him to directly speak to the other fairies

"Okay Zylvyr, they're all here and are waiting for the next orders." Alicia said

"Good, assume battle formation."

"Mages and those who use long range weapons your the rearguard. Mages cast Wall of Tempest now, Bowmen shoot every monster that gets through."

"Tanks in the frontline if the Wall of Tempest gets destroyed, you guys are going to defend to City. Block everything that gets pass the barrier."

"Warriors and Assassins, you guys are the middleguards. Any monster that gets pass the Tanks, Kill em all."

Zylvyr's orders were acknowledged. Every fairy that heard his orders got into position. The Mages casted Wall of Tempest to prevent the monsters from coming through. The Archers were covering the mages making sure to kill anyone that got passed.

The Tanks also did what he said, they carried their shields and ghot ready for when the barrier breaks. At their back was the Warriors and Assassins getting ready to kill everything that gets pass the Tank's defences and the Archer's arrows.

The battle started again when the dragon ordered it's forces to break the barrier. The Fairies' defense were impregnable but there were still some monsters who passed the barrier.

The Fairies were in a tight spot but they were still holding on. Zylvyr issued another order for the fairies.

"Archers forget about killing the ones that had gotten through leave them to the Assassins."

"I need you guys to use Rain of Arrows at the center of the enemy forces. We'll cut them in half."

"Assassins after the Archer cut the enemy forces into two, you guys get ready and kill the enemy vanguards." He stated

The Fairies acted quickly and executed his orders. They trusted his words even though they don't even know him.

The Archers fired their arrows and killing the monsters in the middle. Zylvyr told them to use Rain of Arrows so that they can chip away the enemy forces at the same time keeping them from pressuring the Tanks any further.

After the barrage, the Assassins quickly killed all the monster that remained in the front leaving only the Dragon and the enemy's rearguard.

The Dragon was angered, he didn't thought that his forces could be vanquished that easily. He then started flying and with his breath of fire, the barrier was instantly broke.

Upon seeing that the barrier was broken Zylvyr ordered the fairies to retreat a few meters backward, he also ordered the the Mages to cast Wall of Tempest again.

The fairies did what he asked of them and quickly casted the spell, but this time the other fairies hesitated. If that Dragon uses it's breath attack again the barrier will break easily.

"What's that guy thinking that barrier will break easily."

"Yeah i know, that spell isn't strong enough to handle a Dragon's attack."

The other fairies are starting to doubt his capabilities but unbeknown to them, Zylvyr already had another plan.

"Guild maste- I mean Gethrude, when will the reinforcements get here?" Zylvyr asked

"In about ten minutes or so." Gethrude replied

"Okay then, here's the plan. Mages just to what I said earlier, Tanks after the Mages casted Wall of Tempest cast Castle of Stone to strengthen the barrier." Zylvyr said

Castle of Stone is a spell that summons a big wall of rock, the spell also increases the defense of another barrier type spell and its user.

The Castle of Stone is a spell that only tanks have for they usually go up in the front absorbing all the damage.

The other fairies were surprised and also amazed by this young fairy. Not only did he knew the unique spells of other classes, he also used it to their advantage.

The fairies started to think that they were wrong about doubting this fellow, he knows what he's doing.

They started to execute Zylvyr's plan again this time with a lot more trust. The Mages casted Wall of Tempest while the Tanks used Castle of Stone.

A huge rock wall appeared covered by ravenous wind from the Wall of Tempest. Zylvyr contacted them again for another order.

"Archer, use Rain of Arrows once more pin that Dragon down."

"Assassins and Warriors, If je tred to burn the arrows kill the enemies rearguard." He said

The Archers did what he said. They shot multiple arrows straight where the Dragon was while the Assassins and Warriors were on stand by waiting for a chance to attack.

Some of the arrows hit the Dragon making it back away from the barrier. But that wasn't all when the Dragon backed away the remaining arrows hit his rearguard, killing some of his troops.

"Not again! Who's commanding those fairies??!!" The Dragon shouted

The Dragon was at a loss he didn't thought there was someone capable enough to lead the fairies.

"Good work there my friend, not only did you make the dragon back away you also killed some of the monsters." Gethrude stated

"Well it's a three way deadlock, if he chose to break the barrier he'd be pinned down by the arrows."

"If he chose to burn the arrows, his rearguard would be killed as well."

"If he chose to dodge them, his rearguard would still be killed." Zylvyr said with a smirk on his face

"Yeah but that was just a decoy aren't i right Zylvyr?"

"Your real plan was the protect the barrier and to buy the reinforcements time as well." Aram stated

"Yup and here comes the cavalry." Zylvyr replied snapping his fingers as he did

The reinforcements have arrived. A group of spriggans came rushing towards the City. And it seems like all of the spriggan guilds are with them.
