Northern Kingdom, 3 kilometers from the south gate of Yol.
"Die! "
In the next instant a head flew away.
The Queen's soldier relaxed for a short time after killing an enemy. But during that short moment he felt something go through him followed by intense pain, he looked down and saw at the level of his heart, a piece of sword sticking out.
"Damn, how could I fail in this unknown place, my glory had only just begun!" The soldier thought, he turned and saw behind him a soldier covered in full armor, even though he could not make out his expression, he had no doubt that he had to wear a mocking smile.
What a fool, to be reckless on the battlefield is to ask for death. Yol's soldier said but he couldn't find any strength to laugh at this newbie.
Currently the battlefield is already covered with corpses. All the surviving soldiers are covered in blood, many have their armor shattered. The horses have already returned to town as neither side has any interest in fighting with rank horses (F)
Yol's soldiers had time to join the battle during this time so the person wasted no time and the ranks (F) also began to fight.
The allied soldiers numbered 250, 100 soldiers coming from Yol and 150 coming from the 3 surrounding towns which were in garrison.
Fortunately for Yol's soldiers, only 250 soldiers from the enemy side joined the battle. This is not so surprising because the soldiers will not join the army for the money, to defend the kingdom or any other trivial reason. They want strength and glory!
It is only in a fair battle that their will will be strengthened without increasing their risk of death. All wars are fought this way when victory is decided by the battle of the higher ranks.
Indeed no matter who wins the battle for the ranks (F) it will have no impact on the battlefield. To sweep the 1000 soldiers, you only need ten ranks (E-) or only a few ranks (E) or just one rank (E +).
The Allied soldiers have already suffered enormous losses, only a hundred are still fighting, all of rank (F +) except one of rank (E-). Among the survivors another rank (F +) broke through, but he joined the battle of the ranks (E-) and died almost instantly.
All the survivors now are elite at the same rank, how could a beginner even hold up against these experts?
Unfortunately even if Yol's soldier decides not to join the battle for the ranks (E-) there will always be one who will come out of the battle to deal with him. Yol's soldier does what he can to survive. If he survives then glory awaits him but if he dies he will die like a nameless soldier.
On the side of William's Generals.
Arthur, Frederick, Charles and Edward are all in a miserable state. Their armor has long been destroyed from the shock waves, countless cuts can be seen on their bodies.
They are all injured, but the injuries are very slight and almost negligible. Their fighting power is still intact and their breathing is perfectly normal.
"These guys are fucking monsters!" Exclaimed Franck, one of the Queen's patriarchs.
When the Queen left, their little competition unfortunately could not continue because Arthur killed too many people, and thinking about it, Frédéric, Charles and Edward stopped him because these soldiers will be their future soldiers during the ascension. at row (D). It would be a waste to die here. But they always continued to take turns fighting to see their progress.
The results are quite satisfactory as they can all withstand the enemy army on their own even if they lose a lot of mana resurrecting the skeletons.
Between a rank (E +) who fought only a few times by betting his life, and a rank (E +) who spent 14 days in hell and putting his life on the line in several hundred battles and who even experienced the feeling of death , the difference is as vast as the starry sky.
With the battle temporarily paused, Arthur took the time to examine the man in front of him for the first time.
He is a man of about 70 years old with a large build and 2 meters tall. It previously stood like an insurmountable mountain and gave off an invisible aura of confidence. His sword also reflected this fact as it was gigantic both in width and length. The speed with which Frank wielded his sword made the sword's sharpness always amazing.
But now he's got heavy wounds all over his body
"You are less clever my big now. Arthur teased with a smile.
"I wonder how you can say that when half of the injuries you suffered come from me brat, haha" Franck replied mocking his opponent.
"If you didn't have these skeletons, I would have cut you in half a long time ago," he added.
"Oh, do you want to test? Arthur said, his eyes narrowed and his sunny temper grew extremely cold and murderous.
Arthur's dark aura seemed to react to her temper, as she grew completely frantic in all directions.
Seeing Arthur's expression, Franck suddenly felt a tremendous sense of danger, he knew that if he answered with a affirmation, his chance of dying would be over 90%. Although he looks like a colossus, he does have a talent, and this talent allows him to determine a person's level of danger.
Even though the capacity of the other patriarchs to feel is vastly inferior to Franck, their own instinct cried out to them not to fight this madman.
Edward and the other generals next door didn't keep their cool as well as he moved from those people who still fought with calm smiles before, to people giving off the aura of a person straight out of hell.
Although this impression is not totally wrong ...
"You are at rank (E +) so you are worthy to become the King's generals but if you seek your own death do not blame me for granting it to you. Arthur said coldly, addressing the Queen's 12 patriarchs.
The 12 Patriarchs all started to feel cold sweats and thought uniformly, "There is no hatred between the two sides, so no need to fight to the death. These little wounds will heal in a few days with our superhuman body. "
Completely forgetting the 45 rows (E-) and 8 rows (E) dead just before. No that's wrong it's not that they forgot them, they had no choice but to forget because otherwise the whole army will be eradicated by these 4 monsters.
"Anyway, as long as the Queen wins, these guys will end up on our side more than making up for the loss today. The patriarchs of the capital reassured themselves.
As the situation was tense on the generals' side, they heard a huge explosion in the sky.
It was like a blue and black sun rising in the sky, the tremors were of such magnitude that even the generals felt a slight shock hit them.
It was the sword intent that William redirected skyward as best he could. Fortunately he also manages to control to a certain extent so that it only spreads in width and does not touch the city, otherwise there would have been a lot of deaths.
Luckily he activated [Wrath of a King] just before or he could have died or been seriously injured in this attack.
After redirecting the appalling sword intent, a sign in translucent blue appeared in front of him.

In this state, William has twice as many stats as Queen Victoria. After the transformation, William walked several miles above the ground in one step.
He waited patiently for Victoria because he knew she also preferred an air battle.
Her wait was not long, Victoria only glanced briefly at William and even though she sensed something was wrong, she still charged.
Swords began to cross, several hundred blows per second are exchanged between the two sides, countless shock waves followed their clash.
All the inhabitants of the city looked up to the sky. The sound of swords sounded like a lightning storm sweeping over the city.
Many of them even struggled to endure the sound of collisions. Others have even passed out.
On the battlefield, silence reigned, everyone stopped fighting because the opportunity to be able to see such a fight is very rare even for ranks (E).
They looked over the town of Yol and the sight shocked them greatly.
Whether it was William's camp or Arthur's side no one could believe what they were seeing.
They saw the sky fill with black and white, as if the two colors were fighting each other for dominance of the sky.
"It looks like the real battle has passed the warm-up stage. Arthur muttered silently as he watched the apocalyptic scene, but he clenched his fist firmly as his desire for strength grew endlessly.
