In the middle of the battlefield that took place on the East Desert of San Coro, just on the Tiber-San Coro border, a man wearing a dark green cloak with black outfit was facing a heavily armoured skeleton with a large shield and sword, a death paladin.
The man facing the skeleton had a sword in his right hand. The hood on his head covered a part of his face, but a pair of green orbs were glowing under the shadow of the hood.
“Alright then, let’s go!” The man’s foot pressed deeply into the sand as he pushed himself forward and threw sand in the air in the process.
The man launched himself toward the death paladin. The large, armoured skeleton planted its shield into the sand, preparing to receive the Hunter’s attack. Too bad for it tough-
“Hmph!”
The Hunter jumped into the air, over the death paladin and landed behind it. He readied his s
Ryuka managed to break through enemy lines and got to face the target he was after, but there were some things there that he did not expect to see.“I didn’t expect to meet two of you here.” Ryuka commented on the two figures present in front of him.“You broke through our soldiers with ease. If anything we should be surprised instead.” One of the robed skeletons spoke.“He is one of the Coloured Hunters, it is not that surprising.” The other one said.“I suppose. A top Hunter that never got the approval to reach Legendary rank. ““Poor guys.”Both of the supreme liches seemed so calm that it made Ryuka more cautious. Skeletons were being summoned constantly while the liches in command of them were chatting. The summoned skeletons completely ignored Ryuka as if he was just a statue standing in
(What is this?) Akame thought.The world around her was seemingly moving so slow. She was actually currently cutting a two horned demon in half, but even the motion of her blade was slow.The screams and yells around her were echoing slowly. Her bright red eyes left a trail of light behind as she moved. The demon in front of her was spewing blood as her single blade sword was cutting through the middle of it, but Akame did not care about that. The sight of blood and being covered in it was normal for her.What was itching her mind was-(Why is it so boring?)She was bored. The enemies she faced were so easy. Too easy.(Everything is so weak. So slow. Is this really all the Scarlett Army has to offer?)How many hours has it been? How many monsters has she killed? How many fellow warriors had died? How many times has she swung her blade?
“Please, don’t push! We have enough for everyone!”“Form a single line! Please comply!”Two knights were shouting instructions to the citizens who were in the bunker. There was a table with pots of porridge being served by knights in armour to the people. A long line was created by them thanks to the knights that were instructing them.The knights were distributing lunch at the moment and so far, it was going smoothly. There were some complaints from the adults and whines from the children, but no one actually faced the knights. They understood the situation well and only kept quiet most of the time.Sir Kop, Izz, Shim Boon and Bran were also just sitting down and enjoying their meal.“Hmm, I think it needs more salt. Maybe some chives and chicken too.” Izz commented on the porridge he was eating.“Don’t c
Skeletal dragons were flying all over the sky, creating a looming shadow across the desert as if clouds were passing by. The soldiers in the desert already had their hands full with the zombies and skeletons. When the bone dragons came, it was just utter chaos.Black flames were spewed out of the dragons’ mouth and they also engaged in a melee against the soldiers. The average soldiers could not even land a hit on the dragons and the army was slowly being pushed back. The zombies and skeletons advanced behind the bone dragons.“Fall back! Regroup!” A general on the field ordered his soldiers.The soldiers followed his order and fell back. Most of the Hunters also joined in their retreat. Some of the Hunters intercepted the dragons and held them back. Bone dragons were S class monsters. By theory, it would take a Champion ranked Hunter to take them down or several of the mid ranks. These Hunters braved t
East Cobalt Ocean, Shark clan territory.The battle between the combined might of the five clans of the Cobalt Empire Army and the Scarlett Army was ongoing. The army that was mostly made up of the Shark clan was actually holding off the Scarlett Army very well.The Shark clan was well known for their strength after all. This result was to be expected honestly. However, that did not mean they didn’t have their worries.Afro was fighting against a mosasaur-like monster with just his bare hands. Even so, his punch was powerful enough to cave in the skull of the beast. Blood exploded out of the cracks of its skull as it floated lifelessly.Another monster came from behind him. Its jaw was wide open and seemed like it was about to bite Afro’s head off. Then, a powerful blast of air bubbles hit it and cut its head clean off.“Watch your back.” Ace said as he fl
The tides of war had changed terribly for the Scarlett Army with the interference of the Six Colossi. The Scarlett Army was pushed to a corner in all of the targeted areas.Bronto and Pearl that were overseeing the entire process of the war were in a dilemma.“This really falls out of expectations. I won’t believe that the Colossi would take action if I didn’t see with my own eyes.” Bronto expressed his clumsiness.“Neither did I. Although we did consider the Dragon Emperors to join the fray.” Pearl said.“How’s the progress on father’s revival?”“It’s almost full. But if we are being pushed back, we may not be able to gather enough soul energy.”“Tch! Damn those giant things. We’re going forth early with our plan. Contact Crymillia and Bilgrae. And tell the guys in the
Inside the underground bunker, a Hunter that goes by the name Christopher was talking to a knight on duty. They were currently inside a room in the medical bay. There was a corpse of a man on the floor.“It seems this man indeed turned into a vampire.” Christopher reported his finding.“B-but why did he turn into one? How did he turn into one?” Harun, the knight, asked as he was not knowledgeable about it.“People turn into vampires by forming contracts with the devil or by consuming the blood of other vampires. In this case, I believe it is the latter.”“Consuming blood? Did he drink blood from somewhere?”“Unlikely. Based on the wife’s assessment, her husband was a healthy young man that had no problems in life. There was no reason for him to make a deal with the devil. Unless he hid it from his own wife.”
“Fire!”Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!Cannon fire focused onto one spot. The ground on that spot crumbled from the explosions caused by the cannon fire. However, the figure standing in the middle of the crater was seemingly unharmed.He was a large and bulky lizardman whose scales were dark blue in colour. His irises were bright red and his build was very muscular. From the many explosions caused by the cannons firing at him, it didn’t even scratch him. His armour was black in colour with golden edges that covered his torso and shoulders.Bilgrae brushed off the dust on his armour and smirked. “Is that all you have?”All of the monsters in the area had already cleared out when Bilgrae arrived. He was one of their commanders after all. Under his order, they fled but were still pursued by few soldiers and Hunters.All of the giant snakes
