Third Person POV
Northern kingdoms.
...
...
Calanthe was waking up adversaries here and there while her royal guard kept her protected in this chaos.
"We are having trouble on the left flank, my queen! It's falling!" A leader from the Cintran army approached with an urgent tone.
"Move part of the center there!" Calanthe exclaimed as she watched her men trying to push back the enemies in a maelstrom of screams, pain, and blood. The man took a group of 500 men and ran to that side.
"My queen... we are under heavy pressure on the right side!" Another leader appeared.
"We can no longer pull men from the center, they will have to hold on their own!" She commanded, having already allocated more men to the left side as a more critical point.
The man simply nodded and returned to that side, trying to prevent the black soldiers from passing. Calanthe looked over the area with a furrowed brow. 'We are losing...' she murmured internally, not pleased with the outcome, though it was expected given the number of enemies they were facing.
"My queen, the outcome is still devastating for Nilfgaard, we are killing even more of their men than we are suffering losses..." Mousesack tried to offer some words of comfort, seeing the queen's conflicted face.
Calanthe just nodded and killed another Nilfgaardian soldier as she moved away slightly to give orders, her gaze falling on the flames still burning on the field. "My queen!! Something is happening on the other side!" Commander Varys exclaimed while pointing to chaos unfolding on the other side.
Calanthe followed his finger above the flames where the general was, and chaos erupted at that moment, with flames and explosions while all the soldiers there were agitated.
"It's the boy!" Mousesack said before opening his eyes bewildered. "He... he killed the general!!!" Mousesack exclaimed as everyone there was taken aback by this information.
"That boy... can anyone really stop him?" Calanthe couldn't help but be impressed by this, bringing a smile in such a grim situation.
She sighed before taking a deep breath. "You heard!!! The enemy general is dead, they are leaderless!!!" She shouted to everyone there, while the leaders of the Cintra soldiers repeated this to their men, gaining more morale with each moment.
Meanwhile, the enemies also began to hear this while those who were present when Madara killed the general tried to suppress the information to not disrupt the morale of the army.
"With me!!" Calanthe continued shouting, advancing directly into the enemy group with her men trying to break through. She saw some Madaras still fighting in those parts as he continued killing and killing enemies with no one able to stop him.
"Calanthe!!" A voice emerged with a Madara leaping among all the enemies to reach her, killing some of them until he reached the queen.
"I've discovered important information." Madara said with a serious tone. "There are 10,000 soldiers coming from the west, the youngest son of Hugkil has betrayed us... They are heading here right now." Madara warned while Calanthe immediately looked to Mousesack.
He glanced at that corner while disappearing in a flash and went to that side, disappearing for 30 seconds before reappearing on his horse, looking very serious at the queen. "He's right, they should be here in 30 minutes!" He said in a serious tone.
"..." Calanthe seemed to reflect for a moment on this information before issuing orders. "I want you to position a part of the army on the right flank to combat the enemies from the west!" She requested and began to move the army.
The battle saw all the Cintra armies attacking the enemies head-on, with some groups still behind on the side of Nilfgaard, the enemies from the south had a group of 10,000 men still guarding the west of their side, awaiting the army that the leader mentioned, while Calanthe was defending from the left side, with a Nilfgaardian army coming this way.
Madara still had his clones killing enemies on the battlefield, but they were nothing compared to the tens of thousands of men fighting against each other, his original left the enemy lines while heading to the right side where there was greater chaos to help them.
They continued launching their projectile weapons, killing dozens of men but it was not enough to change the tide, however, he focused on only one side while continuing to clear that area because there was someone there that he knew just falling.
After killing the last one, he picked up the body from the ground and leaped higher than he could, landing in a field devoid of fighting, though it was filled with bodies and blood.
"Madara...?" A weak voice came from the person he had picked up.
It was Meril Hugkil, with a spear embedded in his stomach, inflicted by an enemy; he had been in this state for minutes judging by the amount of blood he had lost.
"Just rest..." Madara spoke.
"I don't want to suffer dying... Can you help me end this, I know I won't live much longer..." He requested, spitting blood, and Madara nodded.
"Just tell my children that I fought with honor to protect this kingdom and I want them to save themselves from this chaos." He requested as he died.
Madara simply nodded, after all, it would be cruel to mention that his youngest son had just betrayed the entire kingdom and it was very likely that his eldest son, Victor, was dead at this moment.
"I will do that and avenge any harm that befell your family." Madara spoke in a serious tone before cutting the man's neck to grant him a clean death.
He sighed while he could see the horizon filling up with a new army approaching the battlefield at full speed. Madara left the lifeless body of Meril Hugkil and sighed while he ended up staying with those men preparing for the impact.
"My queen... We should go to the capital!" Mousesack also said, looking at the approaching army.
"I will not leave them, Mousesack, I will stay until the end and die with them if that is my fate!" Calanthe exclaimed as she narrowed her eyes, preparing for the fight.
The 10,000 soldiers continued running while their horses thundered across the ground, reducing the distance between them and their enemies, while shouting, hoping to massacre the army of Cintra.
"Prepare for impact! Prepare for impact!" The leaders of Cintra shouted as they rode in front of their group, with the men preparing for the impact.
Madara was also with them, at the front of the shields, starting to make seals. He couldn't perform a jutsu on the scale of the last one, but he would at least help in some way.
Finally, as the enemy army approached, Madara then unleashed his jutsu on that side, as a huge fireball exploded across the grass, hitting men and horses unable to stop their advance, who began to scream immediately as they were burned, and more and more horses entered there. But the other sides were not so lucky, being easily pushed back by the horses and their spears, with the soldiers entering into the formation of the men of Cintra.
And if it was bad before, it got even worse now, as Cintra now had to deal with both sides while more and more black knights began killing them from behind as well.
"Do not bow your heads to the enemies! Stand firm and secure!" Calanthe shouted as loudly as she could, while Nilfgaard's soldiers harried her and she began to advance, killing soldiers here and there, with Mousesack and his guards fighting bravely.
The group that had invaded the left side was already in the middle, while one of the leaders saw Calanthe and followed with several soldiers in her direction, trying to kill her. "Kill the queen!" he shouted in the southern tongue, advancing.
The royal guards stood in front fighting, however, the group was too large, just having them to protect the queen while the other soldiers were still fighting with the first group of invaders without being able to handle the rear, as the front would be knocked down and they would have another problem.
Calanthe began to see her royal guards falling dead the next moment with the number of enemies. She got angry and advanced without thinking much, not just letting people fight and die for her. She began to cut here and there until an arrow hit her horse, making her fall to the ground the next moment.
"My queen, are you alright?" Commander Varys appeared in front of the queen, fighting against anyone who tried to advance on her. She got up and fought at his side, swiftly battling the soldiers.
"For Cintra!" she exclaimed as she killed a Nilfgaard soldier.
Varys continued slicing through his enemies until a man dressed differently from the others, but still bearing the Nilfgaardian emblem, appeared on horseback in his field of vision. He took a large bow and aimed an arrow; Varys was surprised by the arrow's speed and if he thought his armor would prevent it from penetrating, he was wrong as he felt a sharp pain with his tendon being pierced.
"AHHH!!" He exclaimed in pain, and Calanthe could only watch as the royal guard who had been with her since he was a squire to her father's royal guard died with swords embedding into his skin, falling dead the next moment.
Calanthe became furious and began to cut them down swiftly; Mousesack stood by her side to help, even as they were still in the middle of the soldiers, at a disadvantage. "We must get out of here as quickly as possible," he urged her.
"We can still hold on a bit longer," she spoke while advancing, cutting down soldiers here and there. "You know we are losing this battle!! You have to return to the capital!!" He pleaded as he followed.
But at that moment, some horses appeared trying to block them, while he stayed behind and Calanthe continued to advance alone. With a sense of urgency, Mousesack began to cast more magic, killing them with a staff in one hand and a sword in the other.
Calanthe, though alone, continued to fight. Arrows fell against her armor, denting it, but she held firm, fighting like a fierce lion.
"It seems the Queen of Cintra is in trouble. Let's see her die here finally," a man dismounted from his horse as he approached the queen. Still fighting against a circle of invading soldiers, who stepped back at this moment, while Queen Calanthe raised her sword to her new challenger. They were about to start fighting at that moment with the man wanting to kill this queen.
The army of Cintra began to dwindle with each moment, and this caused it to start breaking. Even the soldiers who were holding on the western side saw that the information was false and advanced against the main group too, increasing the pressure. Even without being a general, they quickly became minimally organized and were destroying Cintra.
Calanthe finally managed to defeat her opponent, plunging her sword into his heart, piercing his armor. As the man looked on in surprise, she withdrew her sword from his heart, while he fell.
She already prepared for the next enemy. After all, all the soldiers began to act at this moment after seeing one of the leaders dying. She continued cutting down soldiers here and there, but soon she was being surrounded by six men. A distant archer saw the fight and aimed his arrow with a special bow. The arrow traveled quickly, striking Calanthe's leg, piercing her armor and calf. She immediately screamed, falling to her knees, looking at the one who shot, while he smiled. She quickly turned her attention to all the men approaching her, trying to hit them with her sword, cutting only the air as they smiled.
It was at that moment that something leaped into the air. Madara removed several kunais from his storage, throwing them at the men so quickly that all their armors were pierced. They screamed as their necks bled, all falling at the same time. Madara also threw a kunai at the distant archer.
The man saw it and looked different from any other soldier, as he quickly lay down on his horse dodging the kunai and already arming another arrow and launching it at Madara so fast that his Sharingan spun as he dodged.
Madara looked with interest at the archer, who was no ordinary soldier as he landed on the ground next to the injured queen. "Calanthe, you must go to the capital," he said, moving his hand and catching an arrow in the air that was headed towards Calanthe's head.
"Now!" He spoke, while Calanthe, slightly startled, nodded.
"Don't die, boy!" Mousesack said with a serious tone and immediately came to the queen's side, not even asking for her opinion before disappearing with her in a flash of light.
Madara dodged another supersonic arrow and looked at the archer, advancing immediately as he launched his kunais, the man quickly grabbing his arrows and launching them at high speed, clashing against the kunais.
This left Madara surprised by such skill, but he continued to advance. As soon as he got close, jumping after dodging other arrows, the man disappeared in a flash, reappearing on another side, shooting arrows while Madara dodged easily and tried to attack him.
But the man disappeared again. "This is some kind of mage specialized in archery," Madara murmured, impressed by this, as the archer reappeared on the other side. He didn't notice Madara's clone behind him, feeling a sword embedding in his shoulder with a movement dodging the weapon going towards his heart.
"AHH!!!" The archer screamed before disappearing.
Madara saw this and tried to look for the archer again, but the man had fled. Feeling that he was closer again, he sighed while around him the soldiers of Cintra tried desperately to win the fight, but dwindled with each moment. He was the only one remaining calm, watching all those men die. It wouldn't be long before he was the last to fall in that hell of blood and desperate screams.
