Chereads / Rebirth of a Killer / Chapter 30 - The Capital part 1

Chapter 30 - The Capital part 1

Cyrus plan wasn't all that grand, they would take seventy thousand troops and storm the main gate.

The other thirty thousand would split up in two, and they would both attack from another side.

So the main troop would attack from the south and the other two from east and west.

The main troops will be led by Cyrus, Axton and Harlan.

The troops who would attack the east would be lead by Kutsa and Smith.

And the troops who would attack from the west would be lead by Amaya and Avonlea.

A few days later the troops who would attack the west and east headed out.

Not much later they were both ready.

a signal was then given, a huge fire was lit, the main troops would attack first.

The main troops rushed towards the front gate of the city, the walls were of the Capital were pretty high, around eighty meters tall.

They would normally stop whatever was attacking it, but the lizards could just climb the wall.

A second huge fire was then lit, both the east and the west troops moved.

The humans on the south wall threw everything they had at the incoming wave of lizards.

Fire balls, ice lances, stone spikes, rocks with fire liquid, arrows.

Everything hit the lizards, many perished, but in the end they would reach the top of the wall, they were just that well build.

And not much later they eventually reached it. All kind of thoughts were raging on in the minds of the humans.

Some of the humans faced dispair, as it would maybe be the last time that they would breath, see family, loved ones, friends or that good old buddy called booze.

Others weren't loosing hope, they fought with everything they got even if they lost an arm they would keep on fighting, some of the humans just had that kind of fighting spirit.

As the battle in the south raged on, the battle in the west and east just began.

This time Smith waited a bit, he didn't want to catch a few dozen fireballs with his face again.

He eventually saw a perfect chance to get onto the wall. He transformed into his first form and started to run a bit more to the south side, as he saw a small gap where there weren't any humans.

His body blended in well with the huge shadow the walls had cast on the ground. He easily climbed the wall and in mere seconds he was on the top.

The humans on the top of the wall looked into his direction as they felt an eerie chill run down their spine.

Some of them immediately flinched back as they saw the seven meter long beast.

There was a pause, it felt like the time had frozen.

Then suddenly an stone spike was thrown at Smith, he immediately moved out as he felt the thing heading for him.

He would clean the whole east wall.

The humans saw the beast running towards them, some of the more cowerdly ones dropped their weapons and ran away.

Others rushed in meeting Smith head on.

Smith started to bite, slash and whip them of the wall with his tail.

The humans who were fighting back saw that their weapons didn't even pierce his skin.

They felt anger and fear running trough them.

Angry that they couldn't slay this beast and fear because they would soon die.

As smith was clearing the wall more and more lizards started to appear on top of it.

The killing continued.

Smith then saw the one called Kutsa fighting with a human who had a mana barrier around him.

He saw lightning snap around her. A sudden hunger in him which he had suppressed as soon as he had seen the first lizard appeared again.

He wanted to take that power but right now he couldn't, he had to wait.

He then went on with his killing spree, not much later all the humans on the wall were dead.

The lizards then started to invide the city itself. Not many people were here as they had evacuated towards the second wall.

The second wall was the same length as the first one, which in the end wouldn't really matter.

The assault stopped for a second as it started to become night.

They all grouped back up on the west side of the city. A ton of lizards had perished, around eight thousand which was not as many as the humans bit it was still big for the Paraginions.

Tonight they would rest and think about there fallen brothers and sisters.

...

The next day

...

The groups would be separated again this time with a bit less lizard power, but they would still exist out of the same one's like yesterday's attack.

So Smith and Kutsa moved back to the east.

This time everyone would attack at the same time.

The signal was then given, everyone rushed at the second wall.

This time Smith didn't wait and also attacked head on with them.

This time more spells came flying at their heads and they were also stronger than before.

Some of the lizards immediately died if they got hit, Smith obviously dodged as many as he could, but some still hit him, but they only left a few minor cuts or burns on his body.

Which he wasn't that bothered by.

He quickly reached the top of the wall and used his killing intent to lower the humans their stats.

Most of the humans felt a wave of fear passing over them.

But that quickly went away as everyone started to hear a sudden sound.

"Tuduuuuuu"

A horn was being blown, and the sound came from the North.

Smith ran back down the wall and started sprinting towards the north, once he reached the north wall he looked over it.

Hundreds of thousands of humans could be seen marching over the plains, heading towards the Capital.

Smith didn't know what to feel at the moment.
