"Cough…cough!"
I coughed several times before finally reaching the castle's upper levels. When I opened the doors that led to the top of the castle, I saw the others standing in the same place I had left them, solemnly and heavily looking into the distance.
"How is the situation?"
I asked.
After sparing me a glance, Leopold commented.
"...Not good."
He was the only one who bothered to acknowledge me when everyone else was too busy observing the situation in the distance.
Boom—! Boom—!
The ground continued to shake, and anyone who paid close attention could hear the agonizing screams of the orcs as they struggled for their lives.
Seeing the scene, I asked Leopold.
"How many losses have the orcs sustained?"
"They've lost a couple of legions, and are barely holding on."
It was Angelica who spoke this time.
