Helios tried to contain the anger in his chest about the arrogance of the Vlonhard Empire which again violated the peace treaty by invading his kingdom.
Thankfully, many of the adventurers and mercenaries who were the main foundation of the northern defenses had been healed and were now able to fight back.
It was also fortunate that Duke Glenn and the soldiers below him were people who thought that there was nothing better than to believe in their own stamina rather than to rely on the name of potion or holy water. Thanks to him, Duke Glenn and his soldiers did not become victims of cholera outbreaks transmitted through potions or holy water.
Therefore, although the invasion of the Vlonhard Empire came too suddenly when the fortress almost collapsed due to the cholera outbreak, the northern stronghold of the Meglovia Kingdom was still able to survive firmly.
However, the attack of the Vlonhard Empire was still too brutal for Duke Glenn's forces to deal with in its present state. Only about sixty percent of its power is currently restored about the cholera outbreak that attacked, moreover, with the still recovering of their flagship sword masters and mages and about twenty percent of the strength was still in a newly healed state.
It flashed in Helios' mind what if he just went berserk in that place. However, it certainly had huge consequences on him. Unlike in the City of Painfinn, the eyes and ears of the sacred temple were active in the City of Lobos. There was no way for Helios to be able to trick again the sacred temple and also the kingdom if she went berserk using her power in that place.
People will instantly realize the potential danger of a tyrant who will indeed be predicted to destroy the world. If so, Helios would no longer be in a safe position. Not only himself, but the men who follow him will also suffer the consequences.
But seeing the arrogance of Emperor Vlonhard right before his eyes, Helios felt unable to ignore it anymore.
Using a loudspeaker artifact, one of the attacking generals of the Vlonhard Empire said arrogantly, “Hahahahahaha. Destroy every corner of this garbage town! Destroy that fortress that looks like paper! None of these cockroaches will be able to stop the glory of the Empire!”
Helios had lost her temper. However, once he was exactly about to lose his control, something suddenly fell from the sky. It was a flow of mana that he knew well. It belonged to his two most loyal followers.
“Praaaak!”
“Aduh, duh, duh. Hey, Yasmin, could you land a little smoother. My ass hurts tofu slumped on the ground.”
They are Yasmin and Albert.
“Yasmin, Albert, what are you doing here?” Helios asked curiously to the two of them.
“Masteeeeeer!” However, instead of answering Helios' question, Albert ran to hug the master.
But as usual, Helios shies away from the arms of Albert's bear.
Ignoring Albert, Helios looked at Yasmin, but at once Helios realized the strangeness in Yasmin's clothes.
“Yasmin?” Helios became agitated and had wild thoughts after seeing Yasmin's tattered clothes seem to have been deliberately pulled up to tear at the top close to her chest.
“Hey, Albert, what have you done to Yasmin?!”
“Hah, it wasn't me who did that to Yasmin, Master. That's Nunu.”
For a moment, the thought of eighteen years and above arose between the two women who were in a hot scene inside Helios' head. However, Helios immediately dismissed the thought. In fact, he was disgusted to think about it.
“Albert is right, Master. Nunu insisted on coming with us. But since it would hamper our speed and after all he wouldn't help much in battle, I ignored him and just took Albert with me.
“Ah, so that's yes why did your clothes get torn Nunu?”
“Master?”
“Ehem, it's nothing, Yasmin. Instead of that, why can you use the fly style?”
It was the scene when Helios came heroically before Yasmin with her icy wings to save the fortress that was attacked by herds of tarantula monsters two years ago.
At once Helios was amazed at the talent of one of his very prominent subordinates. He knew that Yasmin had the omnipotent power of magic like Nunu, and even more so than Nunu, Yasmin was born with a perfect magic circuit.
However, Helios still continues to be amazed by the speed of Yasmin in learning magic that can immediately imitate a magic perfectly even though only a glance at it.
“That's more important than that, Master. Just leave the problem here to us.”
“It's true, Master. Just leave everything to us. Master does not need to waste Master's energy just to face these crocoes.”
In fact, there was still a lot that Helios wanted to ask the two of them especially if from the beginning they already knew about the invasion of the Vlonhard Empire so that they could come here at a very convenient time, he said, and if so, where can they get the source of that information. However, due to the impossible time, Helios only let go of his men with a smile.
“I understand. You two go. Teach those arrogant imperial minions and bring back victory.”
“Ready, Master.”
“Understanding, Master.”
Albert and Yasmin answered simultaneously.
By entrusting the front line to his two greatest men, Helios returned to the back line to return to care for patients who were still recovering.
If it was the two of them who were there, then Helios felt no need to intervene, at least that was the thought of Helios at that time.
***
On the front lines of the attack, apparently the enemy was led by two famous generals from the Vlonhard Empire. They are Charlot Jackiel Albaramaz and Medina Valaqous Yospherina.
Entrusting the kroco to the royal soldiers, Albert penetrates the enemy's defenses and heads straight to the middle of their command center and finally meets one of the enemy's generals, Charlot.
While Medina wanted to help Charlot deal with the cockroaches that managed to sneak right under their noses, one of the other valiant warriors from the kingdom attacked from above by flying with his wings as white as snow dispelling the attack of Medina. It was Yasmin.
There was a battle of two upper-level camps that immediately shook the ground around them.
Charlot advanced slowly with his greatsword that exceeded even the size of Albert's sword. He then attacked with the momentum of his greatsword that even made the handle of Albert's sword almost released.
Albert's two hands trembled just by receiving the auraless attack from Charlot.
Seeing that, Charlot smiled. This time he activated his aura to attack Albert. Albert then also activated his thin aura that could not even be compared to Charlot's Aura even though they were both level 4 sword masters.
Immediately clashing, Albert's sword defense aura shattered like a fragile glass. Albert was struck by the aura attack of the imperial general. Albert had expected this to happen so that he had prepared a counter-attack so that the impact of the attack would not be too fatal to injure his physique. Albert was still severely injured.
“Who would have thought that the empire would send its ace only for this small invasion. Ck, the empire really caught us in our weakest moment.” Albert said in despair.
But all of a sudden, a voice echoed in Albert's head, “O dear comrades in arms of the chosen one, can you hear my voice?”
It was a male voice that echoed very clearly in Albert's head.
