The grounds are shaking as the army of man's charges toward the flank of the enemy, Aiden, was one of the soldiers in front of the charge. Slowly but surely, from the distance, the blob of enemies, fighting against the main army of his side, breaking away and heading toward him.
[Equipped Gakgung bow]
[Equipped quiver]
[Quiver refilled with available arrows]
[Drawing speed has been increased to 100% because of the skill, 'Quickdraw']
Still moving his feet, he equipped his bow and took an arrow before placing it on the bowstring, stopping for a split second, shooting the arrow and continuing. As he continued moving his feet, he saw his arrow hitting one of the barbarians, dropping the man to the ground.
100 metres left
He took an arrow from his quiver and did all the steps and saw his arrow hitting one of the enemies, dropping him to the ground once again. He then unequipped his bows and quiver and changed it to a sword.
[Unequipped Gakgung bow]
[Unequipped quiver]
[Equipped normal steel broadsword]
[Equipped normal wooden round shield]
It was about 30 metres left at that moment, the two armies about to clash to each other, their victories would decide the course of the battle, 'God, please let me survive this battle'
…
They clashed with each other, shields bashing with shields, weapons or even humans and the sound of metal meeting metal could be heard, it was simply deafening. Meanwhile, Aiden bashed his shield with a man, not too muscular looking, shirtless man.
The man fell to the ground and Aiden locked eyes with him before he lunged forward at the direction of the man's throat with his sword, spurting blood all over his face and instantly killing the man. He cleaned his face and saw an incoming attack right in front of him.
Another man, still shirtless, was about to do an overhead attack against Aiden with his axe, the 18-year-old suddenly raised his shield high enough that he was able to kick the man on the stomach, disarming the man and stunning him for a few seconds as Aiden stabbed the man's stomach.
[Total of kill in the battle: 2]
He sighed, but the enemy doesn't let him rest. Soon, another attacker tried to attack him with the same overhead attack, now from his east (his right). He almost didn't see it but was lucky enough to move his sword to the direction of the man, slightly having an angle where it was enough for the enemy's axe to slide.
The man has the surprised look on his face. What came next was the edge of the round wooden shield used by Aiden coming straight into his face, breaking the man's nose. The man dropped his weapon and covered his nose, but what came next, a sword, once again, to the throat, instantly killed the man.
[Total of kill in the battle: 3]
"AAAARGGGHHHH!" Aiden could clearly hear the voice despite the deafening sound of battle around him. He turned his head to the source of the sound and saw a man charging right toward him, taking him by surprise and tackling him to the ground.
[Enemy has forcefully disarmed your weapons]
[You lost a normal steel broadsword]
[You lost a wooden round shield]
Being on top of Aiden was a bearded man, he raised his fist and dropped them toward the direction of the 18-year-old face while screaming something Aiden didn't understand, "*!#%*&#%(*$^#(@ !* #(&%* (&#( !%&( !(%#(*%#$( !#&% (#!& %((&#!%(&(&^*(! #& !#&$"
Aiden quickly covered his face with his hand, and the man continued to punch him. Unbeknownst to the man, the 18-year-old was waiting for an opportunity. Knowing some technique from his old world, when the man was raising his right fist, Aiden quickly opened his arm, defending his face and deflecting the man's attack.
Now, the man has his right hand close to his stomach, or near the liver region. Aiden placed his right hand on the man's back as the man lost his balance, then Aiden applied pressure to the right. Resulting on him and the man rolling to the right.
One moment he was pinned down by the man, the next he found himself on top of the man throwing punches at him. The man, of course, used his arms to defend himself, but the 18-year-old switched target between face and stomach.
Eventually, the man succumbed to death when Aiden choked him by the throat with his hand. The 18-year-old loudly sighed before slowly getting up and getting his sword and shield back.
[Acquired normal steel broadsword]
[Acquired wooden round shield]
But suddenly, someone wrapped Aiden's throat from behind with their whole arm, choking him. The 18-year-old bashed his head back and felt his skull meeting the nose of the attacker, but it seems that it's not enough.
He raised his leg and dropped it down, instantly hitting the shin of the man, which has no armour at that moment. Then he turned around and saw the same man he thought had died from being choked by him.
Seeing the man reacting to his shin being kicked, the 18-year-old lunged forward with his sword and swinging it. Aiden hit the man's throat with his sword that quickly spurted red blood. The man covered it with his hand but slowly succumbed to death when he fell to the ground.
[Total of kill in the battle: 4]
Aiden sighed in relief once again, now louder than before. Just now that he noticed the sound of metal meeting metal around here was gone, he looked around and saw soldiers from his side cheering, some hugging each other.
He smiled for a bit and saw Mike slowly approached him, his whole body trembling, "Aiden… I feel, really scared…"
Without even having the chance of responding, he heard the voice of Sir John from the distance, "I am proud for all of you! But now, is not the time to celebrate! Let's finish our mission and celebrate our victories later!"
