Chapter 39 - Chapter 39 The Fall

"What's happening. Ahh..."

The fallen soldiers moves slowly and stand up. They raised their weapons and attack the remaining knights. The army was in chaos.

"They have became undeads. Defend yourself."

Drathgo shouted to his knights. His veins almost pop out from anger. His proud soldiers and knights were reduced to the undead abominations.

"Father what's happening."

A young man came near Drathgo while defending himself from the undeads. The young man is Devlian, Drathgo's only son.

Drathgo had taught swordsmanship to his son personally. Devlian was talented and smart. With his father's teachings, he was already close to becoming a swordmaster.

"My son stay near me. These damn devils are ambushing us."

Drathgo said angrily. He can't find the one attacking him. Even with his enhanced senses, he cannot find anything.

Normally, to have the vision over the enemy, they need mage's powers. Mage's detecting spells are perfect solutions for this situation.

However, there is no mages left. From the start, the kingdom of Dethyra lack mages. Killian was using this weakness to extreme.

But even if they used magic to detect, Killian just have to increase his chaos powers for hiding. He already well hidden even from the archangels. Its only that he has to use more chaos powers.

"Damn undeads take this."

Drathgo shouted and slashes towards the undeads with his great sword. A large number of undeads fell before his sword.

As expected of a sword king. He is amost reaching the level of a grandmaster."

Killian was watching from the shadows and said. A grandmaster is a tier higher than master. It was the same tier as an archmage.

"But this is not nearly enough."

Killian sneered. He orders his undead army that station at the border to attack the citadel. With the overwhelming force, he didn't need any strategy.

The kingdom of Dethyra main army was here. They have other armies but they are all made up with mostly normal soldiers and knights as their captains.

The undead army moves towards the citadel.

"Commander the undeads are moving."

A soldier said to the garrison commander.

"I can see that. Archers."

The archers step forward on the garrison walls and draw their bows.

"Take aim. And Fire!"

The commander shouted. The arrows loose and flew towards the undead army. The undeads that hit by the arrows fell down. But they are still moving. They crawl and do whatever to move.

The undeads are mindless. They will do whatever Killian wills. The undead army close to the garrison. The archers are not enough. The undeads are simply numberless.

"Ahh, there are some creatures flying towards us."

The soldier yelled. The commander loom at that direction. There are creatures that have terrifying features flying towards the garrison.

"Archers shoot those things down."

The arrows hit the creatures but the arrows couldn't penetrate the creatures and fell down. The creatures got near and attack the archers. Those are gargoyles.

They attack with their huge claws and they also grabbed and drop them to the ground. There was chaos on the walls.

At that time, the undeads also approach the walls and pile on each other. They step on another and climb up the walls.

"Soldiers don't let these undeads reach the top."

The commander shouted. The soldiers came and slash the undeads that are reaching to them. A battle occurs. The soldiers and undeads fought.

"What is that abomination."

The commander and soldiers look at the huge golems with wide eyes. The golems seem to be made from different corpses and flesh. It gives them horrific feelings.

The flesh golems approach and attack the walls. The walls were shaking from their attacks.

"No. At this rate the walls will fall."

The commander said worriedly. But he can't do anything. He is not strong enough.

"Commander we must retreat. The walls are about to collapse."

A knight came to him and said. The commander nodded and shouted.

"Soldiers retreat. Get away from the walls."

Hearing their commander orders, the soldiers also retreat. But the undeads and gargoyles attack them and many died during the process.

At that time, they heard a loud sound and part of the wall collapsed. The undeads ran towards them aggressively.

They has nowhere to run now. Behind them was the city. Many lives will perish if they falls.

"Defense formation."

The remaining soldiers and knights form a tight formation. Defending the undeads.

"Shields up. Don't give up. If we fall, our families will be in danger."

"For Dethyra."

"For Dethyra."

The soldiers shouted and fight with their best. But their efforts were futile. The undeads are just keep coming endlessly.

The commander looked at the unending tide of the undeads and sighed.

"Hahh... so this is the end."
